I've seen German kinder eating asses with ears, crowds chanting "Har-i-bo! Har-i-bo! Har-i-bo!" over the hypnotic rhythms of confectionary buttocks chewed in harmony.

A good thing about the napkin holder is it lets you take out your preferred number of napkins so long as you want either 800 napkins or a 3cm shard of one napkin.

![R. H. Bing (October 20, 1914 – April 28, 1986)[1] was an American mathematician who worked mainly in the areas of geometric topology and continuum theory.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cyyd366g3hrxp5rynixm2mm3/bafkreid62wy3dekb2kzbisjfdlimlb35j4rlgew5iof7vi32byfszmg26a@jpeg)
![Bing's father was named Rupert Henry, but Bing's mother thought that "Rupert Henry" was too British for Texas. Thus she compromised by abbreviating it to R. H.[5] Consequently, R. H. does not stand for a first or middle name.
When Bing was applying for a visa, he was requested not to use initials. He explained that his name was really "R-only H-only Bing", and ended up receiving a visa made out to "Ronly Honly Bing".](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cyyd366g3hrxp5rynixm2mm3/bafkreigmfj53q4uy33spga2bxdkllqm3ag5sffovg5g7ddmu3vqzkb6k24@jpeg)

Good article. There really is not enough pushback on this kind of stuff. There are so many putatively “good faith” libs & even progressives who still frame these stories as tragic for the mother & remove all agency from the autistic child who is just some broken vessel for their parents dreams
What are "autism grievance parents"? Those who claim to represent a wider underserved autism community—while working against the interests of autistic people & families who lack grievance parents’ class advantages, or have trouble accessing public benefits:

Horrified by the misinformation peddled by MAGA truthers? You should be just as concerned about grievance-based autism parent orgs.

If you had a third completely functional arm, where would you want it to be attached to?
Personally I think I'd want a second right arm facing backwards attached to my left shoulder.

In smoke filled break rooms needed fixin
Hunting for a bit of mojo and a beau named Nixon
With a cold streak sweeter than fudge banana swirl
You're a dame fate made for me - Punk Rock Girl.
