True. My mom did meth for the first four months of her pregnancy and I’m indistinguishable from anyone else. People drastically underestimate the role of chance and how many factors go into a good or bad pregnancy.

Best comment on the matter I’ve heard is that autism makes you more sensitive to pain, and Tylenol being one of the few safe pain relievers for pregnant people means autistic people are more likely to take Tylenol. Then autistic people give birth to autistic people, because it’s genetic.

And of *course* you support Autism Speaks. 🤮

*blocking people* is MAGA behavior? …You are delulu, got it.

You keep replying that you’re on a public forum as though others have issue with you voicing an opinion. Nobody else here tried to act like social media is their personal bubble. The issue is saying “I didn’t ask you” when that’s not how social media works. 🤡

I can’t respond now since one of you blocked the other, but 1) this is a public forum, “I didn’t ask you” is irrelevant. 2) This is the first I’m hearing about it. 3) NYT has many writers and anyone can send in an article. An article about celebrities doesn’t replace another article. You’re so rude.

1) This is the first I’m hearing of it. 2) you’re on a public forum. 3) there are many, many writers who write for the New York Times. One article about Taylor and Bruce coming out does not replace another article about a ship capsizing in Korea. You’re being rude for no reason.

When King Charles takes the throne in the Canadian parliament today — the first time a British monarch will open proceedings since 1977 — it will be a “big symbolic move to come to the defense of Canada,” Dasha Burns says on today’s #playbookpod.

“Little joys under capitalism.” Okay. Yes. What else? If you’re aware that life is generally miserable under capitalism, you’re likely also aware that goods are brought to you cheap & easy by the direct exploitation and murder of others. You know what’ll change that?…. Not ‘little joys’.
Sacrifice.

The fact this is apparently ‘adult content’ is wild.

Etsy has been overrun with dropshippers and regular sellers for ages now, it’s not a great place to rely on anymore either. Plus all the shipping and delivery has an environmental toll. Small local stores are best.

Elon’s voice is hilariously distinctive for him to think he could get away with this lmao

True statement that often makes me feel terribly sad ashamed of the world we live in. 😪🙏

I read Jonathan Alter’s biography of Jimmy Carter a few years ago. It was simply amazing how he never stopped going 100% in all that life offered: learning to downhill skill at 62, climbing Kilimanjaro at 64, picking up snorkeling at 90.

RIP.

They’re actually a cult lmao

US libs are so overtly evil now. With Iraq, the propaganda was effective, you could almost understand the confusion at first. This time they're looking at footage of IDF making soup out of toddler parts and they're like "as sad as this is, those soldiers need efficient sources of fat and protein"

All the finest character witnesses.
