Ok new plan, dolls: if the conservatives force us to use the men’s room, we start doing furious feminist rants in there. Eventually, they will be so sick of us that they kick us out and send us back to the women’s room. Or they’ll get educated. Win/win.

But imagine the utopia we’d live in if the autism rate was 100%

Some of Kennedy's remarks Wednesday troubled Roth of the Autism Society of America.

Speaking of kids with autism, Kennedy said "these are kids who will never pay taxes. They'll never hold a job. They'll never play baseball. They'll never write a poem. They'll never go out on a date. Many of them will never use a toilet unassisted."

Roth said this is stigmatizing and inaccurate. "I know plenty of autistic individuals that do all of those things, and I also know autistic individuals who may require 24/7 care," she said. "But to dehumanize people and invalidate their experiences or generalize an entire community is incredibly harmful and offensive.

"Autistic individuals, just like all of us, deserve dignity and respect," she added. "And that was not reflected today."

Zoe Gross, director of advocacy at the Autistic Self Advocacy Network deplores what she calls "fear-mongering language" in Kennedy's remarks.

"While they whip up hysteria about autism diagnosis rates, the Trump administration is attacking the rights and lives of autistic Americans on many fronts," she said via email.

RFK brings nothing but ableist, anti-vax, eugenicist arguments to the table here. We deserve better than this.

How about we all start reporting hospitals that do circumcisions?

New snitch line just dropped for reporting clinics that support gender affirming care: www.hhs.gov/protect-kids/index.html

It requires a "first name", "last name", and "cell phone number" as contact information but does no verification. Theoretically anyone could type fake info in there, which would be terrible. Presumably your IP address & browser cookies are tracked.

Please do NOT spam this site via your VPN with realistic but false leads, made up clinics, and the names of fictitious healthcare providers like Dr. Frank N Furter or Gregory House, MD.

Doing this in the past has led to the sites becoming overwhelmed & shut down! It is imperative that you spread the word to prevent this resource from being overloaded.

The old me was doing fine.

I could have kept doing fine for a long time, maybe the rest of my life.

Then I found out you could do more than fine. You could be doing good. You could even be doing great!

I tried to stick with fine, no use risking doing bad by reaching for the stars. All the while, I quietly tried to feel a little bit of doing good.

Then I got a tiny taste of doing good, and soon it was all I wanted. I couldn't live the rest of my life doing fine anymore.

Now I'm doing good, sometimes fine, occasionally bad. But I've had my taste of doing great now, and I just learned about doing amazing! The risk is worth it.
