Yesterday I went for dinner with my also ADHD son at our favourite pizza restaurant. We made a list of things that annoyed us including people on their phones ignoring their friends, people sitting too close to us, people blocking the door and people being in our favourite restaurant.

Firstly. paracetamol does not cause autism. Secondly, looking for a cause suggests we should be looking to prevent and cure autism which would be a sad state of affairs indeed. It’s the latest attempt of the Deranged Angry Whotsit trying to get eugenics in by the back door. We must call it out.

In difficult times, nothing brings a community together more than a crowded bus of rain soaked commuters trying to work out if the short cut spaghetti strands on the one remaining seat are, in fact, vomit.

I’m Gen X with ADHD living in a dystopian nightmare. I’m full of perimenopausal rage and ready to fight fascists. As long as I can be in bed by 9pm and have a nap after lunch.

Largest ever mass arrest by Met Police at one protest
466 arrests were made. This is reportedly the largest ever mass arrest by Met Police.
For context, in the year ending 31 March 2025, just 232 people were arrested in the UK for terrorist-related activity in that entire year.

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992.
Was there a breast cancer epidemic?!
NO.
Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976.
PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something.
This is also about autism.
