It was never just about schools, it was never just about libraries, and it isn't actually about the books.
It's about finding a way to banish entire people, entire ideas, out of society, back into the closet or worse.

Trump’s executive order is a major step backward for civil rights in America. Let’s break it down: it eliminates a key protection called “disparate impact,” which has been used for decades to fight discrimination in schools, housing, and other areas.

You won't understand autism until you understand how something seemingly tiny and completely insignificant (to you) could give someone such intense anxiety that they literally can't move on with their day until the thing is "fixed".

RFK Jr. at the "Make Indiana Healthy Again" talking about autism:
"This whole generation of kids is damaged."
This is what he thinks of kids with autism? That they're "damaged?"
Reprehensible.

No lawmaker in Congress should be able to own, buy, and sell individual stocks.
We need to ban congressional stock trading—and I've got a bill for that.

and people wonder why I'm pushing so hard for Neurodivergent and Autism Rights with my workplace discrimination case... there has to be people who lead the fight for change!
I love (hate) how Legal Thinkers are complaining about everything being too woke when three years ago I had to sue the state of Illinois to get judges to stop demanding to see my genitals and threatening to hold me in contempt for "perpetrating a fraud upon the court" by saying that I am a woman

Attacks on the rule of law, our courts and our profession show no signs of abating. Many have wondered where the lawyers are and how they are responding. The ABA hears the call to action. We do not stand alone: ambar.org/akz90o52

My "high functioning autism" is basically everyone else seeing me as completely normal but maybe just a bit picky/particular... while internally it's me in constant sensory overload, social overload, and fighting against my executive dysfunction to just do stuff...
Anyone else?

Yes, I'm traumatized and disabled & to my former employer that probably means I'll have to give up... but I'm pretty used to being scared & uncomfortable.

Despite all the frustrations I have with my support needs and being disabled. I am grateful that it’s made me very good at dealing with being uncomfortable.

Donald Trump preys off people feeling hopeless and being too scared to fight. I won't let Trump take away my hope or make me too afraid to stand tall and fight.
