We Live Here Now is now in 2nd place @signalawards Listener’s Choice #signalawards. RT + VOTE: vote.signalaward.com/PublicVoting...

Maybe we should spend less time worrying about the causes and cures of autism and more time figuring out how to support autistic folks (& all disabled ppl) so they/we can live happy, healthy, safe and loved lives. Put money towards care not cures.

As a @washingtonspirit.com fan, I’d love to see the team boycott the upcoming CONCACAF match in San Salvador over Trump admin’s brutal use of the inhumane CECOT penitentiary. We are sending immigrants to a Salvadoran megaprison that violates international law. Maybe we shouldn’t play soccer there.

I would love it if Cecily Strong as Judge Jeannine was the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEbt...

Dear Sec. Kennedy: This year I paid the IRS 22% of my wages. I made a podcast for The Atlantic, baseball sucks, poetry is best left to poets & I have a partner of 7 years. I am so good at using the toilet on my own, I often clog it right up. Not knowing I was autistic is what destroyed me.

Ok, I have four hours left to hit my stretch goal for my podcast Kickstarter. I need to get $700 to get there. Can you help?! Thank you!!! www.kickstarter.com/projects/obe...

And this is why every first responder should be required to do autism training to understand how to de-escalate these situations. This could have been avoided with proper training. https://www.boisestatepublicradio.org/news/2025-04-07/pocatello-police-shooting-victim-autism

This is a great story from @propublica.org about a truly despicable practice that Americans should be ashamed of. https://www.propublica.org/article/inside-ice-air-deportation-flights

I think what this country really needs is a Baby Jessica stuck in a well type event to bring us all together.

So so scary

I can't be the only person wondering if astronauts Butch and Suni...

The good folks at @kickstarter.com named Race To The Top Of The World one of their "Projects We Love." I'm nearly at 50% of my goal. Can you help me pass the halfway mark? Thanks! #projectswelove www.kickstarter.com/projects/obe...

Hey friends! I'm trying something new — I'm doing a Kickstarter to fund my new narrative podcast. I'd love your support. It's a rough time for all of us, but donating to my new show could be cheaper than a carton of eggs or a gallon of gas. Any support would be so appreciated! Thank you!

As I keep seeing excellent journalists get pushed out of the corporate podcast world, I'm excited to see how community-funded projects, like my pal Lauren's, shape up. www.kickstarter.com/projects/obe...

I'm working on a new podcast project and I'm launching a Kickstarter next week to fund it. I hope you'll consider supporting it. And by "consider" I mean open up your wallet and give me all the cash that you were going to use to buy one carton of eggs. Thanks! www.kickstarter.com/projects/obe...

This week's episode of Radio Atlantic from @theatlantic.com debunks the podcast The Telepathy Tapes and it's pseudoscientific claims about non-speaking autistic children. Very worth a listen! www.theatlantic.com/podcasts/arc...

So we can’t send food aid to Sudan because that’s a bad use of U.S. taxpayer money, but somehow $4bil worth U.S. taxpayer-funded weapons to Israel is benefitting us? How?

This is what being a woman in media is like.

I cannot believe that the person who made that pseudoscience nonsense podcast The Telepathy Tapes went on Joe Rogan spouting her magical ESP autist garbage. Except I guess I can because like attracts like.

I did a TV spot yesterday on @thebeat.msnbc.com about J6 jury duty. Cute how my neck turned scarlet. But I still look 1mil times better than Dan Bongino. https://www.msnbc.com/the-beat-with-ari/watch/-corrupt-purposes-see-jan-6-juror-on-trump-s-inexperienced-loyalists-running-the-fbi-232920133636

"When the jury summons for federal criminal court arrived in my mailbox in November 2023, I knew I had to answer it," @oberandout.bsky.social writes. "I had to answer this one because in my gut I knew it wasn’t going to be just any old criminal case."

I wrote a little op-ed for @washingtonpost.com about being a J6 juror. Check it out (if reading is still allowed in America): https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/02/17/january-6-riot-juror-trump-pardon/

I can’t believe a show as grossly negligent as The Telepathy Tapes is getting a 2ndseason. It trafficked in pseudoscience, conspiracy theories and straight up quackery. Its main source lost her medical license in 2009 & her work widely condemned by legit scientists. Shame on the podcast industry.

First Elon, now Kanye claiming autism is why they’re sick, hateful assholes. Can I renounce my membership in Club ‘Tizzy?

Sure, let’s legislate these 10 trans college athletes out of existence. That will surely go a long way towards making sure that female athletes have an even playing field. WTactualF

When I was in HS, a cisgender boy played on our field hockey team. He wanted to play hockey, but there wasn’t a boys’ team. So he played with the girls. And literally no one cared. No one felt unsafe in his presence. He was just a kid who wanted to play sports. Like all kids. ALL KIDS.

I don’t understand the right’s obsession with casual cruelty. Their craven desire to use offensive slurs is baffling. Also, no one is preventing you from spewing hate. There’s no word police, dummies. But there are societal consequences. In related news, why is that dyke Nancy Mace so hot??

Don’t resign.

Every single person normalizing the Trump administration should be ashamed of themselves. Including DC mayor Muriel Bowser: https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2025/02/10/federal-buildings-bowser-trump-southwest/

The idea of starting up yet another social media account gives me hives. But here we go.
