Check on your autistic friends, we're not ok.
The president just trashed all the work the autism community has been doing for acceptance of our uniqueness as genetic (which is well established) and blamed autism on maternal Tylenol use.
We've been reduced to another thing to blame moms for.

Doctors' best guess is I got cancer in 2015. We didn't know until 2023.
A deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, year of tests and chemo with two months of radiation ended with me in remission.
But the bills remain, and keep growing.
Every dollar helps.

I have three types of ttrpg characters:
1. Tortured soul whose dice rolls turn them from Byronesque to Benny Hill sketch in ~5 mins.
2. Hot idiot who somehow manages to fail upwards
3. Hyperintelligent goblin chooses violence (usually with incoherent goblin noises included)

This is hands-down one of my favorite of Owen's many stories. It feels particularly poignant now for some reason that I can't quite place.

We're so close to breaking $100k - for as little as $5 you can help us hit that goal!
I've done the math- if we get 3,650 ppl to buy the bundle at the $5 minimum we'll break $100k!
Share, promote, and if you have the means maybe put down more than $5 for over 450 games and supplements!

I cannot recommend this story enough. Both the podcast and novel are fantastic.
Written by Night Vale co-creator Joseph Fink, Alice Isn't Dead follows a truck driver searching for the wife she long assumed dead. She encounters not-quite-human serial murderers, towns lost in time and a conspiracy that goes way beyond one missing woman.
