Yes, and yes!
Neurodiversity is as variegated as people are.

You can recognise patterns and therefore groups, but that never gives you a complete definition.

I feel for him.

My diagnosis at 54 made so many things clear in my life. I don't spend time imagining what would have been different with earlier recognition, let alone timely support, but it absolutely matters.

I know the gaps break lives.

I hope your son gets all the help!

Excellent taste.

I really liked TOS, but I completely loved TNG, and DS9.

I hear only good things about Starfleet Academy. I look forward to living that too!

Narnia has been a family favourite since before I was born. I remember loving a reading of the Voyage of the Dawntreader we did at school especially, roughly the same time as yours.

In a vast darkness, a single candle is a bright light.

And brings hope, and direction.

No hope for Britain otherwise.

I don't think the British people should suffer the windbag of corruption, Nigel Forrage, constantly on their TVs, but there we go.

In Ireland, Subway have to avoid the use of the word "bread" to describe their sandwich-encasements.

Be careful how much you believe their "healthy" message...

We should pay more attention to what people are saying behind the scenes, and Frumpyโ€™s earshot. Especially when they deny it to avoid his demented wrath.

Just not as ineptly as the MAGA berks did it. Genuinely blacked out, not just overlaid.

It never had any obvious purpose other than this, current, malignancy.

As you say, it needs to be eradicated.

In a stunning twist ahead of the June 11โ€“July 19 tournament, former FIFA President Sepp Blatter has publicly endorsed calls for fans to stay away from the U.S. echoing Swiss anti-corruption lawyer Mark Piethโ€™s advice amid growing safety, immigration, and political concerns.

It is like a running order of the most inept, most Nazi-aligned dross the Cesspitives have vomited forth in recent years.
