Dear Walmart online orders, I put in a normal delivery order this morning for things I can’t get at my grocery store. An hour later, my kid puked. Like epic on two floors. Took me an hour to clean up. 30 min later, my house still smells of it. I wanted to mop but I’m all out of fluid for my wet jet

Larry Summers: "This is way beyond anything Nixon ever did ... this is the stuff of democracies giving way to authoritarianism. Firing statisticians goes with threatening the heads of newspapers, launching assaults on universities, launching assaults on law firms. This is really scary stuff."

I need a permanent out of office message that reads:
"I'm autistic and will need more time than you might expect to process your message and find the best way to respond in a way that won't somehow alienate or offend you."
but I don't think I'm allowed to do that.

Anybody else go down a rabbit hole this weekend? Mine was quantifying the congenital misalignment of some of my bones (not the type of thing you’d ever notice, but makes for a bit of pain). I couldn’t find my protractor for the angles, but the internet came to the rescue and I was able to print one.
