"Despite overwhelming evidence of the wide-ranging risks of COVID-19, a great deal of messaging suggests that it is no longer a threat to the public...there is no empirical evidence to back this up, this misinformation has permeated the public narrative." theconversation.com/long-covid-p...

Immigrants didn’t keep the minimum wage at 7.25 since 2009. Congress did. Corporations paid them to do it. The most American thing you can do is come to America to become an American. The least American thing you can do is sell Americans your shit, while paying Americans shit to make your shit.

Okay friends. Today I am writing a thread that I have been thinking about for a long, long, long time. It's really, really important. It is also very heavy. Cis people, read this. Look with your eyes open at it. Sit with it. Feel it. Absorb it. Trans people, take care. This is about history. 🧵

Measles was completely eradicated in the United States by the MMR vaccine. It is not possible for anything to be better than that. It is journalistic malpractice to present this as anything other than stupidity, lies, and outright fraud.

🧵It may be IEP season in your school district, and if you have Autistic kids with individualized education plans, this is sort of a big deal considering gestures broadly So it’s important to know your rights!! Often you’re allowed to bring any 1 person as an advocate, if you want to

🧵 um so if I offered coaching services (throws up in mouth a little) would people be interested in that? Fees would not be cheap. I’m a licensed nurse practitioner and can’t afford these student loans in this economy on a “lifestyle coach” wages. But it wouldn’t be more than my evaluations cost!

Closing out Autism Awareness / Acceptance / Celebration / Demands Month heading into May I want to remind you: Autistic people are born Autistic because their genetic parents have enough Autistic traits. that's it! so if you say "cure" we hear "kill" & self-identified autism is VALID because:

@npr.org for every minute spent talking to a non-autistic person about autistic people's needs, you should be giving at least 2x that amount to actually autistic people— & not just in written stories, but on-air. Apply said rubric to any other group under attack right now for their lived realities.

1) This bullshit is costing us a ridiculous amount of money. 2) It never was about "cutting costs;" it was always about control. …I said "THIS WAS ALWAYS ABOUT USING THE RHETORIC OF EFFICIENCY & BUDGET TO GAIN ACCESS & LAY CLAIM TO SENSITIVE DATA & WEAPONIZE IT AGAINST PEOPLE THEY DON'T LIKE."

I know there are a lot of Autistic Daria fans, so I know I can't be the only one who thinks of echolalia and then thinks of the line when Jane says, "You're saying you have echolalia. Echolalia"--and then either out loud or internally keeps saying in Jane's voice "Echolalia. Echolalia." Who else?

A change-up today: a snip from my notes & vibes & a few scenes drafted for fun WIP. Tom, my autistic male lead, is hit with a wave of grief in the middle of his makeover scene. James wrangles an overzealous Edgar and Bertie. #WIPSnips #Romancelandia #DisabledRomancelandia

Andry José Hernández Romero, I remember you, even if I do not know how to articulate my horror, rage, & sorrow at your treatment by my government. No one has heard from you in 43 days. As vigil, I’m posting a photo of you every day until you are returned from El Salvador.

RFK is obsessed with kids not getting the MMR vaccine because he still believes that junk science paper by Andrew Wakefield that MMR vaccines cause autism. So, he is willing to let otherwise healthy kids die of measles because he hates autistic people. Think on that.

Toxicologist here! This will improve the health of zero Americans. Current synthetic food dyes are not causing health problems, and are often times used because they are actually safer than natural food dyes. Reminder that guns are the #1 cause of death of children but we are going to ban food dyes.
