Is it a lesser known autism trait that I am reluctant to start new tv shows or listen to new artists because I know that I can’t just casually enjoy things but have to watch/listen to all of it, understand all the plot and actors, study the lore etc??

As real estate prices soar, New York City’s leaders are pressed into what feels like an unforgiving binary—homes or habitats, people or plants.
New York's next mayor wants affordable housing. Just don't ask where he'll put it.
The beloved Elizabeth Street Garden might pay the price.

What if I told you that looking younger than your age, having translucent/glowy skin, and being extremely flexible seem like positive attributes but are warning signs of susceptibility to long covid and you should consider masking

I’m honestly shocked to see a leftist media guy take this position given how horrible and offensive that class has become on Covid and disability
Anyway glad to see it!!

That our government (through 2 administrations) let COVID rip for the economy was the worst political scandal of my lifetime.

Without farmworkers we wouldn’t be able to celebrate Thanksgiving. Be thankful for their hard work this holiday season!
Sin los trabajadores agrícolas no podríamos celebrar el Día de Acción de Gracias. ¡Agradece su arduo trabajo en estas fiestas!

Why we have a racist ableist white leftist culture on twitter
It’s really funny how a generation will roll its eyes at parents who watch Fox News but doesn’t see why being immersed in Twitter is having the same effect. Lots of serious people show up on Fox News too but that shouldn’t be your primary source on the news.

My take on the new Olivia Nuzzi allegations is the bonus of hiring chronically ill journalists is that we don't have the energy to allegedly secretly (unpaid) work on behalf of RFK Jr.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

I’m poor and nobody cares about me but I’ll do what I can to feel superior
Lets face it, you will never have 0.00001% of Elons wealth but I guarantee you he has not and never will have 0,0001% of the love you have. The richest man on earth has no one who cares for him. No one who loves him, no one he loves and in the end, he'll have a fancy grave with no one to mourn him.

Research shows that volunteering can be helpful for retirees’ health and well-being. For @motherjones.com, I spoke to four retirees about how they’re giving back to their communities to resist current happenings. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Turns out fighting fascism helps you live longer
Retirees are mobilizing to defend democracy—and the benefits literally show up in their DNA.

My mom told her physical therapist she wears a mask because her husband and daughter are immunocompromised. The PT said she is too but isn't worried bc she knows if she dies she is going to heaven. Then her co-worker yelled, “Shut up Debbie you wear a seatbelt and take blood pressure meds” 👀

Biden’s White House co-wrote the bill banning tiktok, pushed it through congress, chose to defend it in the courts, and then signed it into law. Joe Biden is solely to blame for what’s happening to TikTok. Every single expert said this outcome is exactly what would happen if he did what he did.
No Joe Biden is not to blame. If the sale goes through Trump is.
