On Trump, autism and tylenol:

A student I was talking to today had it exactly right on this latest White House bullshit claim

“It’s at the perfect intersection of hating disabled people and wanting women to be in pain”

There’s not only no link, the claim is both ableist and misogynist.

Mornin’.

Here’s a stunning #bumblebee queen.

Foraging on a #flower.

She doesn’t wish to be the richest being.
She doesn’t want to be a president.
She doesn’t yearn for unfettered power.
She’s not vindictive or cunning.
She is in no way a threat to other species or her own.

These images are all from Banter Speech, and they express it far better than I can. They really emphasise the point to SPL/SaLT about diagnosis of Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). Not diagnosing a condition is not your decision to make. #DLDday
