Two of the most common climate misconceptions I see, even among knowledgeable folks, are that (1) most people aren't worried about climate change, and (2) if they were, they'd act.
Not true! Data show (1) most people are worried, but (2) they won’t act if they don’t know what to do-and most don’t.

If we're all a little autistic, why is the world so cruel to autistic people?
The phrase "we're all a little autistic" doesn't just trivialise autistic struggles- it's often weaponised against us. Several followers have told me their psychologists even used the line to deny them a valid diagnosis.

I don’t remember ever not being able to read. Books have always been part of my identity.
And somehow, that moment when I find a book that I know is just meant for me, continues to be astonishing every damn time.

I’m old enough to remember when the U.S. Catholic bishops spent a year debating whether they could give Biden, who is Catholic, communion because of his abortion views.
Curious how they’ll respond to Trump, a Protestant who feuded with Pope Francis, joking repeatedly about becoming pope.

Don’t shame people for not immediately reading all the books they buy. Some books aren’t made to be ready right away, okay? Some books need time to mature. Some books need to cure for a while. Some books are prosciutto, and don’t you forget it.
