True. As long as I can remember I've had ADHD & Dyscalculia but when I was in grade school back in the 1960s & 70s no one knew what they were & just treated me like I was stupid. Autism has taken even longer to be identified & understood. The US needs real scientists in charge of health & science.
There's no "explosion" of Autism in the States, science got better at identifying Autism.
Stop.
Stop.

@jeremyritter.bsky.social "Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst" is a sound practice.
It's my motto. You can't go wrong living that way, because especially these days, the worst happens sometimes.

Beautiful photography!
These limpkins were adorable. They were shy and cautious but not quick to run or fly away. They had a gentle way about them and looked so curious.

On @ms.now Alex Witt Reports, reporter Laura Haefeli talking about the ship parade in NY & the Blue Angels jets doing their show & "spewing red white & blue jet fuel from their planes." Yay! Let's celebrate by polluting the water with jet fuel! We don't pollute the Earth & its waters as it is. 🥵

This dehumanization of the disabled is unforgivable. It's just meanness. Let's also look at the verified fact that it costs more to institutionalize a person than to pay for them to have help in their home.

Did anyone else watch @lawrenceodonnell.bsky.social tonight? He had Isabel Wilkerson on & she is such a wise, smart, remarkable woman. And she is lit from within. Seriously, she has this beautiful inner glow that radiates & it just makes me want to know her. She is simply enchanting inside & out.

Five has the energy (and the face) of a 10!
Active, friendly&playful he’s used 2 going on very long walks, which makes it hard for him 2B in a shelter. He likes to jump exuberantly; they don’t like that
He once had a family & happily lived w/another dog. Now alone
