Anythimg else is noise (also bs). The dude is cool, full stop /

In the first place, there is no need, ever, to apologize for being Autistic. That is all there is to say about that. Autistic people are a part of all of everyone, and a great part at that. I’m not aware of anything going on downstream of the OP, but I affirm that Johnny Cash is cool. /1

Quaint. Apt word choice

Julie Curry @curryj.bsky.social · 1d

Geez. Johnny Cash was cool, straight up. Period. Full stop. I mean, the man was on Columbo, what more are you asking for? Besides, just listen to his music. If that’s not cool enough for you, maybe you should reconsider your life’s choices

It depends on who I get to be in this scenario, but Tikal could be cool

Frog and Toad looked into a mirror.

“We look brave,” said Frog.

“Yes, but are we?” asked Toad.

Can confirm, getting an evaluation for ASD can cost several thousand dollars, even on the best health insurance plans. Some public school systems will help without cost, but it depends on both teacher and parent input (and implicitly parent willingness to support the evaluation)

@kaine.senate.gov Go you Tim Kaine! Representing Virginians and Americans right. I appreciate your persistence on this matter

Senate Press Gallery @senatepress.bsky.social · 1d

Senate adopted by voice vote: Kaine amendment #3337 to repeal the authorizations for use of military force against Iraq.

My kids are tired of hearing me say that the zipper merge is a sign that civilization persists. That and celebrating when one driver allows another to come in off a side street or out of a driveway, and then the next driver follows suit. These things give me hope

Oh boy, bluesky took a dark turn tonight
