Best one so far.

When you're too much of a crackpot for anti-vaxxers 😂

Hey, Autism is not a disease. While not all Autistics have food aversion, it is found in a lot of Autistic and neurodivergent folk. If you want to stick it to the people sharing and celebrating the spreading of misinformation about Autism, share stuff made by Autistic folk. Like my book:

I had no idea iHerb was Dr Oz. It's all over my FB.

Do we know what time to rapture was due? Because, I’m fairly certain the Bible specifically mentioned it was going to be a surprise. Plus it’s a bit like waiting on an appointment or phone call, and I saw the snap in avengers, I don’t want to be driving when that happens.

Surest sign

So let’s see, tylenol became widely available after 1959, before which my noticeably autistic entire family tree already existed. Does it time travel? Did Hans Asperger misdiagnose all those German kids during WW2 which was also, notably, well before 1959? inventorspot.com/the-story-of...

Tylenol ain't taking this shit From tylenol.com

Let's grade the way some of the major news sites are summarizing today's Trump/RFK announcement(s) on their homepages. A grade of "A" is awarded for making crystal clear that the preponderance of scientific publications and expert opinion do not support a link between Tylenol and autism.

Things today's White House autism announcement did not do: -Discuss strategies to increase supports and services for autistic people/families -Highlight why autistic people and families deserve respect, not pity or fear -Endorse one speck of autism research that is not dangerous pseudoscience

This one followed every child born in Denmark from 1999-2010, with more than 650,000 children. No association between MMR vaccine and autism was observed.

@sarahmackattack.bsky.social this thread…

No doubt the US leaders will try to link e.g. paracetamol to autism. Can I recommend www.tylervigen.com/spurious-cor... for anyone who can't work out what's causing what? Hilarious site that compares things that 'seem' to cause each other. But they don't.

To anyone who needs it today: credit your translator. A good translator's skills are at least as important as those of the original creator. Imagine if someone were to build a life sized replica of the Eiffel Tower out of matchsticks, you wouldn't just credit Gustave Eiffel - would you?

If you could add any feature to your garden, money no object, what would it be?

Merry Mabon! Don’t forget to celebrate by buying a bag of local apples, sticking your face in there and inhaling deeply. My favorite annual tradition.

I’m watching and it’s astounding. We all knew something like this was going on - but the extent of it! While so many were suffering, dying, sunk into loneliness - a few were absolutely RAKING IT IN. The COVID health crisis was a very, very lucrative opportunity for some.

The ITV exposé on COVID now turns its sights on testing. I was stunned in 2020 when Sir Paul Nurse - Director of the Francis Crick Institute - told me he’d written to the government to offer the services of the Crick (the biggest biomeolecular lab in the country) - and never got a reply…

Drive is REALLY good.

No particular reason

Chrysolina bankii? A very shiny leaf beetle. He’s ok, he’s just hiding his legs because he spotted me approaching.

Hey… guys… Not only did I remember to put the coffee spoon in the dishwasher… I also did it just Before… switching on the dishwasher. There is no lone dirty spoon in the sink!

And our good opinion once lost…

Another artist told me once to go see the full-size Muchas because you can see all the errors. I did and damned if she wasn’t right. It was a weird relief.

Did u know? More jobs to do before winter arrives - I need to ensure that grass growth in our wildlife pond stays to a minimum, or it will fill up with the stuff & become a sterile grassy clump, rather than a rich aquatic ecosystem. It's a job I find strangely relaxing to do, too..😁🌿🌱🇬🇧🌱🌍🐸🦎

The fight against corruption in the UK is hampered by the lack of an independent agency focused on political and public sector wrongdoing northwestbylines.co.uk/politics/cor...

Welcome to Super Seabird Sunday where we ask you to share photos, videos & artwork of seabirds to brighten up timelines. Here is my contribution of puffins on the Isle of May #SuperSeabirdSunday

This meeting could have been a veiled threat, communicated solely by floral bouquets being sent back and forth, utilizing the Victorian language of flowers.

Help save lives by signing this petition. Help prevent more disability in those already struggling with chronic illness.

🌰 Bonkers amount of #Conkers! 🍂 You might have noticed the ground littered with conkers — and not just any conkers, but whoppers! 🌳 Nature’s given us a bumper crop this year — go out, enjoy the season and maybe even organise a little conker tournament. Just mind your knuckles! 😉 #ConkerSeason

The guidance on masks for protection against Covid changed over the Summer to reflect airborne risk. Ffp3 respirators recommended for staff protection. www.bohs.org/app/uploads/... #Covidisairborne

Great sites for butterflies and wildlife in Rugby. Loving those pictures of butterflies (and eyeing up that lovely yarn). #butterflies #keysites #rugby #nature

I still find the difference between the concrete effects of climate change and its media coverage quite crazy. There are so many issues that have a much smaller impact on our societies but receive so much more coverage.

It is so damn obvious the trans sports issue is a drummed up nonsense moral panic masquerading as “common sense” - but if you look deeper for two seconds you see how the whole point of sex segregated sports is to defund women athletics & to build and propagandize the western idea of women as weak.

Turns out these root-like growths on our Crap Apple tree are 'Burr Knots'. For anyone interested, there's an excellent and comprehensive article on them in this #Permaculture article deepgreenpermaculture.com/2022/07/07/b... #appletrees #burrknots

my fav part of Godwin's Law was the bit a few years ago when Godwin went online to tell people that they should ignore his law

Alfred was always the practical one...

The muppet show is returning. I repeat THE MUPPET SHOW IS RETURNING. Kermit was my first crush this is momentous. If this little girl’s giggle, Kermit’s disgruntled face & the last 10 seconds of this don’t make your day better then I cannot account for you:

Come see me do some poems in Chester Cathedral tonight! It's FREE!

These are gorgeous skirts from an independent artist. I get compliments every time I wear the ones I already have! We need 100 orders of each design to get them made.

There is a story the bees used to tell, which makes it hard to disbelieve.
