@petergleick 100% Just as an example of not nurturing the people we have, if Stephen Hawking had been born disabled instead of becoming disabled once already ensconced in university, higher ed would have done all it could to make it impossible for him to enter research.

Putin will not stop unless he dies or is made to stop. That is a fact. This article from a normally "conservative" member of USA media warns of that. We and our allies MUST stand with Ukraine because if it falls, it will just be even more expensive and time consuming not to mention bloody to beat him back. He will not stop. https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2023-12-15/vladimir-putin-is-all-in-on-ukraine-and-it-s-cheaper-to-stop-him-than-lose?utm_source=website&utm_medium=share&utm_campaign=copy #Ukraine #Putin #supportUkraine #USA #allies

So you have a Rolex to tell the time. My watch can also tell the time.

Can your Rolex do this?

I was autistic when I was a kid and everyone called me “quirky”

I was autistic when I was an “awkward” teen

I was autistic when a psychiatrist misdiagnosed me and said I wasn’t autistic

I was autistic when I got a second opinion that confirmed I’m autistic

Self diagnosis is valid 💜
