@Thomas_Banacek @Acyn Plenty of adults go undiagnosed because their symptoms were not severe enough to prevent them from being employed. Autism: Elon Musk, Daryl Hannah, Anthony Hopkins, Tim Burton, Dan Ackroyd, etc.

@newyorkshade @atrupar No one is upset about researching the root causes of autism. Many are upset about the wasteful divergence of research funds toward disproven conspiracy theories

@CombatingAutism @Jacquifrench27 @OMG_Mum That was not a detailed discussion. That was smoke and unfounded assertions. Listen to experts.

@1000_Cats @cspan @SecKennedy Tell your niece to consult not one but three doctors for anything potentially serious in the future, and ideally, experienced child development therapists. There was no point in waiting until the child was that old.

@841920Meema6 @Acyn this graphic is outdated and useless. Inappropriate laughter? That could be any kid. Kids with autism FEEL pain. Stick to the DSM criteria.

Please don't believe RFK's unsupported assertions about the autism community.

To everyone who voted for Trump "because of the economy," you elected an evil, hateful man with an evil, hateful agenda. What does that make you now?

[Mary Fletcher Jones @MaryFletchJones]

@NewsHour Biden was being Biden. Don't blame him. Blame the people who put him in office and kept him there, kept up the facade of a Presidency, because they had an agenda and they knew they could manage him as they wished. Not hard to figure out who. Let's be real.

@GovernorShapiro I really wanted you to be VP. Thanks for your support of the ticket, though!

[Mary Fletcher Jones @MaryFletchJones]

@chriswitecki I guess why this struck me so hard was saying he wanted a family. Being childless these days is a valid choice, btw. But if you are thinking about bringing kids into the world, you need to approach your choices more soberly. It's a much huger deal than finding someone to ski with

[Mary Fletcher Jones @MaryFletchJones]

@chriswitecki Sorry, one more thing. Surely, you have roots in LA - family, friends, work, fave places. Your potential S.O. would, too. A potential relationship wouldn't trump those factors, nor should it. And long distance courtships are rarely practical. Reflect on your choices

[Mary Fletcher Jones @MaryFletchJones]

@chriswitecki If you want a playful person who makes you laugh, then date. If you want a family, you need someone who is strong. Raising a family takes strength, courage and hard work. It can be tedious. It can be heartbreaking. Playful won't see you through all that. Laughs are gravy

[Mary Fletcher Jones @MaryFletchJones]

@chriswitecki I think your idea of a relationship sounds more like a movie than real life. You don't need to make someone else happy. The right partner is already content with her life and herself because she's done the work. She knows who she is, what her values are and what her goals are.

[Mary Fletcher Jones @MaryFletchJones]

Please pick @GovernorShapiro for VP running mate!

[Mary Fletcher Jones @MaryFletchJones]

@RVANOVA01 I am so glad we were running late. Had I been on time today for our event in Sterling, my son and I would have been in the immediate vicinity right when this happened. Prayers for her family.

I can't access any of the pages on the @FairfaxCounty website. Not the library, Parktakes, Watermine, anything! Is the entire website down?
