Yes, I'm just like other young people. I have to perform an intricate ritual before going out on Friday night that primarily involves me begging my body to please please please let me enjoy my life tonight and I'll let it do whatever it wants to make me suffer tomorrow

I won’t share RFK Jr.’s lies about autism.
It’s disgusting and dangerous.
If he had a shred of decency, he would apologize and resign.
Autistic people contribute every day to our nation’s greatness.
To every kid with autism, I’m in this fight all the way for you.
