The CBS "Survivor" reality show aired its first season shortly after I graduated from college in May 2000.

I was greatly inspired by #ActuallyAutistic Eva's playing the game in 48 (season immediately before this 1), but still believe I'd be voted out 1st. 😀

...& I had a math teacher in 1994-95 & 1995-96 in Fayetteville, NC that drew 🗑️ on incorrectly worked problems!

I wasn't diagnosed #ActuallyAutistic until almost age 35 (April '13), after graduating #3 from HS, #5 from college w/ BS in Biology & Chem & Psych minors.

💯🎯, 24/7/365!

I challenge RFK Jr. and/or his 🧠 🪱 to find out exactly how in the *HELL* I ended up #ActuallyAutistic despite

1) receiving 1/2 or less of today's recommended childhood 💉s during 1980s;

2) not taking 2nd MMR 💉 until summer 1996, when I turned 18 (shortly before starting college)!

🤣
Ahead of the Trump administration's "historic" announcement on autism today, remember, RFK Jr. knows startingly little about autism.

In fact, his views amount to a "rabbit hole filled with pseudoscience about the condition, near complete ignorance about current research and basic facts."
RFK Jr. knows amazingly little about autism
For someone who's been talking about it for so long, the HHS secretary got many basic facts wrong.

I received about half today's recommended 💉s during my '80s childhood (2nd MMR not until summer '96 before I started college).

I was still diagnosed #ActuallyAutistic at almost age 35 (April 2013).

Somehow I was diagnosed #ActuallyAutistic at almost age 35 in April 2013 - despite receiving only ~ half today's recommended childhood vaccinations in '80s & no 2nd MMR 💉 until summer before college ('96).

😯

I wouldn't trust RFK Jr. or his 🧠 🪱 to attempt to figure that shit out.

ABSOLUTELY!

I also like to 🤣 about how my two MMR vaccine doses were widely spaced

(1980 & 1996, due to 2nd dose not being recommended until late '80s USA outbreak & my starting college in fall 1996)

but somehow I've still been #ActuallyAutistic throughout my nearly 47 years of life. 😯
