Student protesters were right about segregation in the early '60s, right about Vietnam in the late '60s, right about apartheid in the '80s, right about Iraq in 2003, and right about wealth inequality in 2011. Seems generally bad to side against student movements.
@childmindinst Remember folks, “attention seeking” behavior is support seeking behavior. Support that child and help them learn how to regulate themselves.
@WhatTheADHD I wonder how many HSPs are highly masked autistics (esp women!). Stigma really does a number on autism and unfortunately people don’t want to associate with it. If only I knew earlier my social anxiety had a reason!
Help continue my list!

At least once a day I have an uncanny feeling that I can't believe this is all actually happening. Reading this tweet was one of those times.
I just cannot believe the known world is actually being destroyed in my lifetime.
Food is 36.5% more expensive than it was 5 years ago.
Nearly two-thirds of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck.
Homelessness spiked to a record high last year.
Half of Americans can't afford a $1000 emergency.
Anyone telling you the economy is good is lying to you.
@JasonSMyer What I do have is a routine, by the power of autism, I can reliably remember to do self care tasks. But if that routine is disrupted, like if I’m traveling, it takes way more effort. Always making micro-decisions consciously is exhausting. I wouldn’t be able to travel alone tbh.
One thing I will never do again as a therapist is watch reality TV. When I was younger I didn’t really understand how much manipulation, exploitation and even abuse occured.
