Two loud explosions in Kyiv - sirens still sounding after warnings on Telegram of two ballistic missiles incoming from fascist Russia’s Bryansk Oblast. No time for anyone to reach shelter. Just heard another series of blasts - reports say another two ballistics were incoming.

This is a fantastic thread on #neurodivergence and how situations can be for us from childhood through adulthood. This is why those of us on this account, push so hard for people to be compassionate and understanding of others. It can make an enormous difference for our #MentalHealth and overall.
There's a pipeline for internalized neurodivergence that no one is talking about. So I will.

You're born.

You have a brain wiring difference.

Because the world isn't built to meet your needs, as soon as they show up, they are unmet.

A MAGA freak in Texas murdered his own daughter in cold blood after they had an argument about Trump.

A grand jury in the Dallas area then *declined to indict him*, and he has not yet faced charges.

Seems like many Texans believe a man has the right to kill his own child for disobedience.

I can't wait until these incompetent clowns are gone from their government roles. NONE of these people have a clue how #vaccine clinical trials are best conducted, or why they're done in specific ways. This ignorance causes them to toss out completely illogical expectations and demands of trials. 😡

This document alleges the FBI erased survivors reports, used them and alleges survivor attorneys were part of the cover up.

If true, that isn’t negligence. It’s bigger than that.

Reports don’t disappear by accident.
Victims don’t erase themselves.
Release the complete Epstein files.
