We need informal, community-led medical support for people with or who may have autism (incld parents with children) with willing trained clinicians — OUTSIDE of official medical record channels right now.
An “autism underground support network” per se.
Work outside the system.

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Scientists do not get paid for getting quoted in the newspaper about science.
People know this, right?
Last year I was quoted in about 30 media articles, and I received a grand total of $0 for this.
We do it because it’s important, not because we get paid.

I keep seeing people think, "Something must be done now because if it isn't, everything is lost." And that's not how any of this works. Just like Rome wasn't built in a day, it didn't fall in a day. Or a century, to be honest. We're looking at a generational fight.

Stop fucking saying he blamed “DEI,” which is some abstract, non-tangible idea. He is blaming people of color having jobs he thinks they aren’t qualified for. He’s blaming race. He’s being racist every time he says it. Journalists need to get fucking backbones, my word.
