The reason why every day life can be so overwhelming for Autistic folks is not because their autism is bad. It's because our world is set up to be as unaccommodating as possible to anything that strays from an extremely narrow "normal" that doesn't actually exist.

We have to assume that every Senate Democrat who's not publicly calling for Schumer's ouster signed off on what happened Sunday.
Whoa -- Sen. Durbin went to up Leader Thune during the vote last night to tell him that on the shutdown vote and ACA promise that "8 of us are sticking our neck out that you're going to keep your word. I hope you will. He said 'I assure you I will,'" Durbin says just now

The full clip may be even worse. He explains that it “didn’t work” bc Trump took advantage of it to do a bunch of unlawful things. This is the same elite cowardice that has gotten us exactly nowhere. “Gosh, Trump is breaking the law and hurting people. Guess we’d better cave.”

I love the idea of everyone too repeatedly guilty of social harms being able to get old and rot comfortably into calm and attended (by family and healthcare professionals) death while being inside walls that kept them from doing “their thing.”
We can afford that, especially if we end billionairism.
