Kershaw really shit on his legacy by deciding he needed to get on the record with the wackest, worst, laziest bigotry right as the curtain was coming down, and it will be tough to remember him any other way. Absolutely one of the greats, but no one can just be normal (or just be quiet) anymore.

The Phillies’ Harrison Bader has been painting since he was a kid. And it’s helped shape his game. Bader took an interest in art history in high school and still paints. It’s helped him get through the highs and lows of his major league career, while keeping him in β€œthe present moment.”

Harrison Bader is an Art Guy.

He's painted since he was kid, studied art history in HS, and goes to galleries in his free time.

He paints "a lot" of portraits during the offseason (and used to during the season, too).

Opinion | Autism Has Always Existed. We Haven’t Always Called It Autism.

This is your must read of the day.

"The neurogeneticist Stanley Nelson once said, 'If you had 100 kids with autism, you could have 100 different genetic causes.'
Researchers increasingly believe the search for a cause of a singular 'autism' is misguided. There are autisms, rather than just autism."

I spoke extensively with the Crimson reporter. She understood the strength of the evidence, and it shows.

Odds ratios can be eye-glazing, but let's just say that when 2.5 million kids are studied, and it's still not possible to detect added risk from taking acetaminophen...there's no added risk.

Go Phillies!

Kennedy Claimed Autism β€˜Destroys’ Lives. Autistic People Disagree.

Amid the [gestures at everything], I've been meaning to re-up this piece from April.

β€œβ€˜Nonspeaking’ does not mean β€˜non-listening,’” a formerly nonspeaking woman told me. β€œI was aware of the terrible things people were saying about me, when they discussed me like I wasn’t even there.”
