Autism is a natural divergence from neurotypicality. It's normal & not the tragedy these clowns are making it out to be. Transness is a natural divergence from cisnormativity. It's normal & not the tragedy these clowns are making it out to be. Just deal with people being different than you.

The same thing works for the media. They feature whatever most people who still watch or listen or read 'news' will pay attention to and ignore anything else. It's all about how to rake in the money. Journalism has no high principals these days, with few exceptions.

My vision for naming. First, keep the last name you have from birth. No changes needed. Second, if you have children girls get their father's last name, and boys get their mother's last name. Those don't get changed at marriage either.

3) We saw only 3 flags at half mast, presumably for Kirk. I silently honored others instead. Another positive thing - TVs in public places are not tuned to FOX as they once invariably were. Every motel and fast food place with TVs running were tuned to weather channels. Much more useful!

1) Hopefully, the latter. I have noticed a muting of the MAGA public presence of late. I think they are feeling the pain of betrayal from their dear leader, and some reassessment of loyalties is occurring. No one likes to admit to being so soundly scammed, so it's a quiet exodus, but it's happening.

Schumer and the old guard cling to power by serving corporate donors and neocons, not people. They fund war, honor bigots, and betray the base. This is liberal rot: a party led by men managing decline instead of fighting for justice. New leadership is not optional—it’s survival.

A Facebook post by Qasim Rashid criticizing Democratic Senate Leader Chuck Schumer. The post lists Schumer’s refusals: to oppose a Trump-backed funding bill, to endorse Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani for NYC Mayor, and to cut funding for Netanyahu despite 92% of Democrats opposing it. It also notes Schumer voted to honor a racist, Islamophobe, and misogynist. Rashid sarcastically questions why Democrats have only a 25% approval rating and concludes, “We desperately need new leadership because this ain’t it.”

I can't get over how weird this photo is. I love that someone in England captioned it: "Darling, be a dear and DO click on the floor lamp."
