It is hard to put into words how this past week basically erased a decade’s worth of work to promote of acceptance of #ActuallyAutistic people and accommodate autism. But somehow Trump did more to promote fear and lies around autism than any other president.

Real Texas Laws starting in September: Municipal gun buy back programs are illegal, passing or enforcing red flag laws is illegal, sawed off shot guns are legal.

"District 2 aims to 'Keep Austin Weird' by taking away all of its voting power. But at least urban liberals and rural conservatives now share something in common: one representative to do Trump’s bidding in Congress."
