Hey! Bluesky! Learn you about some Autism!
I wrote this piece after a conversation with CNN's Sanjay Gupta, and it's received tremendous feedback from both Autistic people and from educators, doctors and journalists who have learned from it.

the true poster composes their post knowing they are already ratiod
The amateur poster panics and rushes to clarify his original post when the replies begin misconstruing it. Whereas the veteran does nothing because he is already working on his next post. His enemies are forever arguing with the wind

Neurodiversity *is* queerness.
For extra spice: autism is an advanced form of gender, we really don’t recommend it for your first character.

"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Mamdani going so hard for trans right and winning is some juicy proof that every dem that abandoned us didn’t do it for politically advantageous reasons. They did it because they’re transphobes and they will lose for it

I can make the following statement because this is what multiple studies have shown:
If your child has is on the autism spectrum, it is NOT because you took Acetaminophen while you were pregnant.
ACETAMINOPHEN. DOES. NOT. CAUSE. AUTISM.
There’s no proven causal link. There is NOT.

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today.
Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943.
Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s.
Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

Given that the American regime is going to be saying some stupid shit about autism today, I want to circulate this essay as a sort of inoculation. please read and, if you learned something, share it with the people in your life.

The punchline at the end of this is definitely worth it.
It's seven years since we posted on Twitter about how kids kept coming into the library asking if we had any books about FORTNITE. We didn't back then, and we'd never heard of it so we tried asking what it was.
