    His Sonic Chronicles fanart was weird. He put some cyborg echidna into Shade's armor, which seems pretty redundant.

    To update on things, he tweeted a few hours ago that he's keeping the Twitter account active. He might make it private, but he won't be deleting it. He mentioned getting an e-mail from someone detailing a bit of how difficult it can be for someone on the autism spectrum to hop social media platforms, so he's decided to keep it going. Which is fair enough, it's a considerate reason. I'll share his own words here for posterity, but I guess the "goodbye Ken's Twitter" alarms are done for the time being.

    Back to your regularly scheduled "Oh god what is he doing to those old issues in the Knuckles Omnibuses" vibes.

    Being stuck to Elongated Muskrats toxic nazisite due to autism making it hard to switch is some living hell kind of stuff.

    OR
    Fucked up that "Ken Penders twitter continuing to exist" is not even the first horrible thing he's blamed on autistic people

    Had Ken actually cared about them he would gently help them with moving away from xhitter. Like seriously, that is the last friggin place people on the spectrum should browse. It mentally drains even perfectly healthy people.

    Fuck you Ken.

    I'm forever going to be near the front of the line to laugh at Ken and I would not be surprised if he is just using autistic folk as a crutch for his own vanity, but I don't think it's Ken's responsibility to shepherd autistic folk away from Twitter, not least because I don't think he's equipped to handle it. I don't know if Ken has any personal experience of autism, either in himself or his family, but if he doesn't then I would not expect him to then have any clue how to navigate something like that - I sure as hell don't. If what he's saying is true, then it sounds like he's trying to make the best choice he can in a bad situation.

    Yeah I don't actually want him near autistic people at all. The last time he even brought up the subject was reaching for a reason why people criticized him and comparing them to Trump supporters (yes, really), somehow just sidestepping the demography of all of these groups to find ANY scapegoat to get away from admitting that he just kinda sucks.

    All I'm saying is that if I were in Ken's shoes and received an email that went, paraphrasing: "Hi! Please don't leave twitter. I'm stuck in here due to my autism." I would in my reply show at least some slight concern about what kind of effect that hellsite must have on autistic people.

    Regardless, it should still be backed up.

    All social media sites are bad honestly, we should just go back to foru- oh hey!

    Anyway no surprises here, hasn't he said he'd leave multiple times now?

    It seems so. We'll probably be back here again in 4 months.

    (Also shuttled out a post about some BlueSky versus Twitter thing; the Twitter talk is only lightly relevant to the thread as is so let's not head down that tangent please)
