I don't pretend to have all the answers - especially not when it comes to faith or right and wrong. But I believe stories matter, empathy is more important than certainty,and that we have a responsibility to question the systems we're born into.

30 years ago, I warned that America was becoming a two-tiered society composed of a few winners and a larger group left behind, whose anger and disillusionment could be easily manipulated.

I took a lot of heat for this speech. Watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bnd0eSuxu84

7 reasons being autistic is so. freaking. exhausting.

1. We're in constant sensory overload

2. We're constantly fighting against our executive dysfunction to do basic necessary life tasks

But how do you feel? Are there things that would make you cheat to save on tedium or frustration?

Are there other examples you can think of?

Or is it something you would never consider doing regardless of circumstance?

There's no judgement here! (Unless you cheat in an online game)

As an autistic person I see explanations as reasons, not excuses. They help me see where people are coming from. I’m glad to know their intentions. Intentions ain't everything, but they matter to me. I find them informative.

Explanations shouldn’t be given in place of apologies but nice extras.

A coup doesn’t always need tanks.

Sometimes it just needs paperwork.

Budgets. Arrest warrants. Policy memos.

That’s what the “Big Beautiful Bill” is - the next step in a soft coup: using law to seize power & silence opposition.

I wish more news would call it what it is: America is in the middle of a soft coup.

We are in the first or second stage of a soft coup in the U.S. There is no need to wait and see if we’re in a constitutional crisis.

BREAKING: 1AM isn’t an accident. Rep. Jim McGovern sees through it. This is the GOP pulling the plug on Medicaid, cutting off food assistance, and abandoning rural hospitals—while praying the public is asleep.

It’s not a hearing. It’s a hit job.
