Instead of the promised "answer to autism," Trump offered families distorted science, false hope, and dangerous medical advice. My latest @opinion.bloomberg.com (gift link):

"Organizations fail young QBs before young QBs fail organizations."
What led Kevin O'Connell to say this?
And why do so many around the NFL agree?
I spent 4 months asking Hall of Famers, No. 1 picks, busts, coaches + execs why teams keep breaking young QBs:

Studies have not shown an association between antidepressants and school shooters. However, exposure to school shootings may increase the likelihood that students will be taking antidepressants during the subsequent 2 years (Rossin-Slater, PNAS, 2020).

The plan? Alienate your star 26 year old edge rusher to the point where he posts a thousand word notes app trade request on social media, only to give in right before the season and sign him to a slightly inflated deal

CLARIFICATION :
The Trevor Project's hotline will still be live. But basically this means LGBTQ people can no longer be connected to it through the US national 988 suicide prevention hotline.
They will need to be contacted DIRECTLY
So spread this around
They can be texted. They can be called.

My column on one of the toughest to ever do it:
Offensive linemen are taught that the nagging pain you’re subjected to comes secondary to team success.
Frank Ragnow has a master’s degree in this subject, writes @coltonpouncy.bsky.social.
He epitomized it more than anyone in the league.

after seeing all the praise for The Atlantic, it's important to remember the magazine drove away Pulitzer Prize-winning science journalist Ed Yong and then hired Jonathan Chait late last year
one thing to remember about The Atlantic hiring Jonathan Chait is that Chait said awful things about trans folks on Twitter, tagged Ed Yong, and became the only exception to Yong's personal rule about not arguing with people on the internet and/or punching down on them (13:15): youtu.be/ddy5uMdzZB8
