A good article about understanding yourself a little better than you did the day before. Also a reminder that autistic people were always there, it's just that many of us - including many autistic folks - didn't have a vocabulary or medical knowledge to describe it. observer.co.uk/news/first-p...

I put a hold on Ed Martin’s nomination. He’s denied elections. Fired quality public servants. Attempted to chill free speech. Turns out he’s also carrying water for the Kremlin. So wholly unfit to be a U.S. Attorney.
