I see why people were doing reintroductions now.
I am an ADHD/Autism self-advocate and researcher. I skeet these things sporadically ADHD/Autism/AuDHD science, local Aotearoa (NZ) politics, my own personal experiences with AuDHD.
I also skeet a lot of shitposts, and reskeet cool art I love.

Woke up this morning and my first thought was this song I hadn't heard in at least a decade playing in my head.

Thought Tylenol caused autism according to the ghouls, but as they faced a lot of litigation I see they have returned to vaccines.

The late diagnosed experience a lot of people with ADHD have of terrible relationships with their parents, before understanding that a lot of the time they are neurodivergent themselves, and have had several more decades of not understanding themselves to compound things like RSD.

Oh hey, I was talking about this the other day. BCI and AI tech is nightmare fuel for so many reasons.
Mind-reading devices can now predict preconscious thoughts: is it time to worry?
Ethicists say AI-powered advances will threaten the privacy and autonomy of people who use neurotechnology.

Device misuse is an interesting way to phrase in possession of devices that might have objectionable material such as child pornography and bestiality.

I’ll be in NZ for the better part of the next fortnight—Wellington, Auckland, and a quick jaunt to Hamilton on Te Huia—and of course I’ll be resuming my very official Pie Inspector role. What bakeries in those three cities can I simply not afford to miss? Who’s doing the finest stuff right now?

How did we let our politicians turn us into a society that resents public services, support, and kindness?
How did we let them convince us that human decency and empathy are wrong?
We really need to sort ourselves out before we kill ourselves through selfishness.
