In response to me making a video making fun of the word Alpha male, a guy responded that based on my body shape, I look like more of an “eating too much Pi male.”
And I know it was meant to be a burn, but I love that so much.

Words I am just now realizing I use CONSTANTLY as an autistic adult to try and avoid people from thinking I have some sort of hidden meaning behind what I’m saying: genuinely, literally, absolutely, absurdly, truly, and legitimately.

Can you imagine the narcissism involved to continually think you are the arbiter of what identities are valid? This is what happens when you empower bigots. They slowly but surely start confidently expanding their hate and spreading misinformation.

I know "legal" has taken on a new meaning in the era of Trump, but is it legal for him to use an executive order to alter the bill for the TikTok ban? Wasn't there only a single extension written into it?

5 years ago today and one week into Covid lockdown, my wife and I headed to the hospital unsure if I’d even be let into the delivery room with her.
Bringing home a newborn during the pandemic was…unique.

Part of my morning routine now is opening up my Signal app to see if Pete Hegseth messaged me any war plans.
He hasn’t yet, but I’m cautiously optimistic that it is only a matter of time.

I feel like Substack is just LiveJournal, but we’re all grownups now so we have to make it feel professional…at least that’s how I’m going to be treating mine.

For those of you that enjoy my work, I just posted my first "essay" on Substack. Similar to my video content, these are going to be unedited, free flowing, and probably a bit more unhinged. Think of it as a longform version of my posts on here.

Phones can’t get any bigger than they are now.
I have dropped my phone onto my face more times than I’d like to admit and if they get any heavier, I’m going to be walking around with black eyes and will need to make up some sort of narrative other than my hands are bad at holding things.

I read that a new medication I was prescribed can sometimes worsen the symptoms of someone with an anxiety disorder.
