Autistic joy is radical.

Because it’s not about success or normalcy.

It’s about existing without shame.

It’s about your bodymind feeling safe enough to be loud, quiet, or still.

Embrace it 💙

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

Reminder: the President may be allowing his secretary to undermine access to vaccines for others and promote anti vaccine misinformation, but he himself is fully vaccinated, including this year’s flu and Covid vaccine.

In this, do as the president does, not as his secretary ‘s ACIP minions say.

Letter saying President Trump got his annual flu and Covid vaccine.

3d: Grumpy Candy Corn revisted. Last year I made this model, printed it in grey and did a hack job painting it. This year I realized I know more about printing & had all the colours necessary to print it. A couple of dots of black paint to do the eyes and frown & it's a much better print!

3d print of a grumpy candy corn who is flipping off the viewer and holding a sign that reads "I hate you too!"

The brave Secretary of War who had US service members literally rolling out the red carpet for Putin will now have them cleaning toilets on a Qatari Airforce base in Idaho. You think operational maintenance and housekeeping isn’t part of the deal Kushner cut? America First, baby.

NEW STUDY

Since I was born, 500 Black neighborhoods have vanished

And 500,000 Black people have been lost

All due to urban revitalization projects

Like the one for LA’s new coliseum — for the Clippers and ‘26 Olympics — that’s destroying Inglewood

From Watts to D.C.: How 500 Black Neighborhoods Vanished in 45 Years

America’s gentrified neighborhoods have lost 500,000 Black people, while gaining residents of every other race, a study finds.

„Terrible things are happening outside. At any time of night and day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared. Women return from shopping to find their houses sealed, their families gone.“
Anne Frank

Cartoon by Michael de Adder. A woman holding a shopping bag stands in front of a sculpture in Chicago that’s bend and shiny. In its mirror you can see her frightened face as she is surrounded by over 30 armed masked people with ICE on their black bullet proof vests.

We're keeping track of all of Mike Johnson's crimes against America and the people who live here, right?

To no one's surprise, he's committing multiple right now. While causing undue suffering to millions of Americans. All to protect billionaire pedos.

SCOOP: Johnson closed House hours after Congress received Epstein’s financial records

The decision to shut down the House — and by extension the government — came hours after the Oversight Committee received documents from the US Treasury.
