I enjoyed the journey he went on in that book, almost more than the romance. I thought she was great but he clearly grows as a human who deserves her, eventually 😂

It is hard to describe just how much RFK Jr. and Trump have poisoned the way we talk about autism. It’s gotten so bad that a few months after I published this piece, the Autistic Self Advocacy Network, the Autism Society of America and Autism Speaks denounced the CDC

As someone who walks a lot in Memphis, I really wish the city would devote some more resources to pedestrian & mass transit friendly urban design. Though the free bus rides that began this week are a good start! I’ve seen way more people on the bus this week.

Alice Wong. i could literally teach an entire semester of philosophy of technology & disability through a lens of just her. You should all go spend time with her work. Her essays, podcasts, TV appearances, books, all of it; it is all so good.

Good night Alice. Rest in power, pending justice & peace

My jaw just dropped. I mean, I had noticed that the children were all girls but I had not thought further that this might not be coincidence

this is an extremely common and well understood surgery, obviously this was not a real number, but what the fuck

healthcare costs are an absurd kabuki theater between insurance and providers and no human being can possibly be expected to manage this shit

anyone who says otherwise is lying to you
