Total word nerd
Can we get past "inclusion" already?
So they're saying acetaminophen use during pregnancy protects against neurotypicality. Good to know!

Donald Trump can't stop talking about eugenics.
Even his commentary on the NFL draft isn't benign.

I studied poetry as an English major. Later, I got an M.Ed. in special education. Care to guess which program I credit as my best preparation to understand and communicate with my students? (Hint: it wasn't the master's program.) 1/2

A GROVELING APOLOGY to my parents, the American taxpayers, RFK Jr., and everyone who's ever been inconvenienced by my complete lack of baseball skills.

Our tax dollars are paying for this.
I am paying for this.
This is being done in my name.
This is awful.
“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

Only a witch will float. If she's a mortal human, then she'll sink to the bottom of the river and drown. Proof of innocence!

Seventeen states are suing to declare Section 504 unconstitutional. The central argument seems to be that calling people the names they prefer and making dress codes gender-neutral would be so onerous that they must end all disability-based protections against discimination.

There is no such thing as a "low-incidence kiddo."
Human beings are not incidents.

"High functioning" and "low functioning" are repackaged ways of saying "more human" and "less human."
Stop.

It's the year 2024 and there are professionals in schools who still tell kids, "You don't say no to me."
Um.

School staff: PLEASE USE YOUR NAME!
There's already a Mr. G and a Ms. B, and we've already had three subs who called themselves Mrs. D.
