I can’t wait to see how the right spins Joni Ernst’s blatant disregard for human decency and empathy as her “just being autistic/on the spectrum”.

That is NOT how autism works.

RFK Jr.'s autism study to amass medical records of many Americans The autism study is planning to link confidential data "with broad coverage in the U.S. population" in one place for the first time.

Well, this isn’t fucking terrifying at all…

I can feel the autistic burnout on the horizon and I don’t like it

Seriously though, RFK’s comments yesterday fucking terrify me. I could 100% see them sending us all off to be “cured” of Autism.

My one regret this week is rushing to get my taxes filed and paid on time, since, according to RFK Jr, I’m not even supposed to pay them, let alone have a job.

Men will literally start a trade war with every other nation on earth instead of going to therapy.

Seared salmon, oven finished, with angel hair pasta and pesto. A small portion of spinach is also there.

I’ve been dreaming this up for about a year now, I’ve just never tried making it until now. Hooooly crap, I outdid myself with this one.

I’ve been subjected to the Toy Story movies so much in the past few years that I’ve started drawing parallels between my life and the series. This style of coping is…questionable at best.

I don’t often complain about NYT games, but today’s Connections can go suck an egg.

This week’s “Why is This Happening” podcast with @chrislhayes.bsky.social is equal parts infuriating and disturbing

As much as I enjoy being a keyboard warrior, when do we actually start fighting this shit? We need action.

Seems fitting that not even a week after Iowa starts stripping civil rights away from individuals that we get targeted by an insane storm system…🤔

Earlier today, I saw a truck that had “Proudly Canadian” painted in big letters on the side of it. It’s amazing how huge of a flex that is nowadays.

I may not be good at a lot of things, but I can mix audio and I can fold a fitted sheet. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hear me out; just because it says “Daytona” on the side of your car DOES NOT mean that you have to drive like you’re racing at Daytona.
