I was never a rising star. I like to think that I'm more like Pluto: not a real planet but some people keep rooting for me anyway.

@_allisulli @BillWongOT Agreed. I told a colleague today it feels like we’re screaming into the void attempting to prioritize autistic well being and quality of life as OTs. Lots of people saying they care but then ignoring the evidence.
