Gélineau advanced the term "narcolepsy" in 1880 while de la Tourette described his eponymous syndrome in 1885. "Autism" was coined by Bleuler in 1911, with full diagnoses soon after.
But what do I know? I'm not the Cabinet secretary in charge of the goddamn Department of Health and Human Services.

RFK JR: ADD, ADHD, Tourette syndrome, Narcolepsy, Autism.. All of these are injuries that I never heard of when I was a kid.

So, if I understand correctly, the President of the United States is saying that the Supreme Court of the United States consists of nine “sick people,” including three whom he appointed.

It’s time for people to stop saying “he can’t do that” or “he’ll never get away with it” because he can and likely will.

First Painted Lady of the season in the yard! I was coming back from a neighborhood walk and lamenting that I've seen so few butterflies this year. And then I came across this beauty right by the back door!

Trump’s DHS arrested the head coach of the Aussie MMA team and jailed him with gangmembers due to an alleged issue with his visa. Never charged, he was and deported without explanation.

If the U.S. military is given direct orders to seize Greenland—pull down another nation’s flag, and then claim the ground in the name of the United States—every senior commander has a moral obligation to refuse to accept or support such a command.

I asked the one high ranking policeman I saw on 5th Ave why there were so few police. He said “We did not expect anything like this. Don’t tell anyone but I’ve only got 44 officers out here — and it’s a great crowd, great event, no incidents.”
I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

People often ask what a coalition of 200,000 can do. The answer’s simple — with all our free time (since a lot of us got fired), we’re out here causing a lot of good trouble.

There are basically no cops here, just tens of thousands of people orderly protesting our fascist government from the New York Public Library to Madison Square Park. Volunteers are moving people in the right direction. It’s beautiful.

Banning the tush push because you suck at stopping it would be like banning play action because you keep falling for it. It can actually be beat, you’re just mad that the eagles are better at running it than your team is at both running AND defending against it.
Nothing is set in stone yet.
But the sense I get from around the league is that momentum around banning the tush push is growing.
