The pitch of the air on those is just wildly unpleasant, too.

Even worse thsn the normal ones.

Okay, now this is funny.

Us Phillies fans have gotten spoiled w/ starting pitching. There are teams out there that are desperate.

Huh. Narvaez had a nice year, though?

would.

Not for a lot, but we could really use him if he can figure it out.

As an autistic person, I hate the hand dryers too. The sound hurts.

So I generally airdry my hands, or use the seat of my pants.

Yeah.

For a long time they were just crazy homophobic. Think they've started to do better.

Yes if only I can tell my child to stop being mute and just talk when he is upset and dysregulated. Or to stop kicking his feet out at me when getting him dressed. Or to eat whatever meal we put in front of him. Or to just stop and hold my hand to stop him running off. 🙄

Well taking my autistic child to cinema first in ages he stood up and gave a monolog through the film telling to not do didn't make him any less autistic I had accept defeat after he showered the row below in popcorn !!! Hoping for a life of much tolerance for him

Oh wow, so exciting, ill go tell my 24 yo non verbal daughter she needs to quit pretending she can't talk or use the bathroom, I have to share this great news with all the parents who struggle every day, ill also have some words with my son and ask him to do me the favour of telling me it was all in my head, long before I even realised I was nuero divergent. I can't wait to try it 🙄

To be fair ive wished this could be the case many a time sometimes i find myself quietly on the sofa after my sons latest meltdown wondering why it happened to our family then I remember the amazing hugs he gives and how caring he is when hes not having a meltdown and also how quick witted he can be

Start an autism satire site, they said - it’ll be fun, they said

An update. If they get one freebie, so do all of you. Thanks for being great!

Oh look, they're letting Marcus Hayes do politics.

Yeah.

She's great. A star of Philly bluesky. Very happy she's having a moment.

I think it's punishment for culture war reasons, more than anything else.

But yeah, either way it's sinister and dumb.

I was a Cub Scout. Enjoyed it, mostly. But as an urban kid I had some issues w/ theboutdoors-y ness of it all.

No. Hope this helps.

now THAT I didn't know.

Thanksgiving was *also* tied to "fast days," where both Lincoln and Jeff Davis would call for fasting and prayer, in hopes to influence the Almighty.

Here's an example:

Yep.

Whichbis both not uncommon for autistic people, and a pretty big problem for a general.

He screwed up an important order from Grant once; if you disappointed Grant, you were dead to him. Grant liked you or he fidn't. And he *really* didn't like Rosy.

Grant had this oil and water relationship w/ William Rosecrans. Who I also think is a possible.

Rosy was a big talker. Used to keep his staff up to all hours talking on one subject: religion. Really good writer, too.

Had this issue where his speech became garbled in moments of high stress.

Grant's a possible, for me.

Not much of a talker, but a beautiful writer. Had trouble w/ human relationships, except a very select few, but a close affinity w/ horses. Could become wholly absorbed in problems.

Struggled w/ depression, just a lot of hallmarks.

It's oretty common for people to think Stonewall was an eccentric oddball. I used to think that.

If you look at Atonewall's actions thru an autism lens... he sudddnly makes a ton of sense.

Damn good book on his working relationship w/ Lee. Wish Keller undrrstood this one thing, though.

Listen, my children. And you shall hear.

Stonewall Jackson. Was autistic as hell. Just... everything about him. He was a rigid thinker. All or nothing. Absolutely unbending.

Had continual tummy trouble, was continually trying to fix his body.

And the whole literal communication thing.

Go somewhere.

Luke Combs is a fake celebrity.

Nope. Not real.

My ex's family was not southeen, and didn't understand how great pecan pie is. They used to make faces and talk about the butter and sugar and whatnot...

Anyways, I'd eat the whole fucking thing myself, gradually, b/c I'm gonna make my damn pie, you know?

A theiry: Bryce Young stole Bryce Harper's juju. Drafted in 2023, Bryce Harper has never recovered.

dueling bozos!!

Bozo Purdy.

The febreeze thing's incredible.

Those things smell... a lot!

Panthers are a fake team, can't tell me different.

College basketball and minor league baseball state.
