There is zero space between RFK Jr’s stance on disabled people and Mengele. That he is in the position he’s in is an abomination and a stain on our country. I hate every person responsible for it.

It seems Tesla is detecting vehicles that may have problems, and artificially running their odometers faster so the warranty expires before they have to do any service

Did I raise your "awareness"? #AutRes
Between 11 and 66% of autistic adults think about suicide during their lifetime, and up to 35% plan or attempt it (2020).
"Obviously, I'm wondering now, if part of that is being driven by the fact that nobody's understanding them, empathizing with them, you know, feeling what they're feeling."

The bipartisan SSI Savings Penalty Elimination Act would ensure the millions of disabled and older Americans who receive #SSI are no longer punished for saving. It’s time to #UpdateSSI & #DemolishDisabledPoverty!
Bipartisan Cooperation to Battle Poverty
If SSI's original asset limit had been adjusted for inflation, it would be nearly $10,000 today — the level the bipartisan group would reset it to.

Ann gives us a great breakdown & reminds us all - sample selection *matters*
data does no good w/o a clear understanding of who is represented
Autism research populations are sliced a thousand ways & any 1 study omits SO many of us. Cumulative review is how themes emerge & we have to be clear.

When I emigrated out of the US just before the first Trümp campaign, I was happy to be away from the bullshit. I needed better access to healthcare, and I never fit in in a conservative Midwestern community.
