It’s often said we love dinosaurs because they’re “big, fierce, and extinct.” Maybe. I don’t think that’s the whole story. When we’re small, and there is so much to fear about the world, dinosaurs can be our friends and protectors. They were for me. From my back catalog at @atmosmag.bsky.social

One thing I've learned from the Internet is that a lie needs 0% proof to be believed, but the truth requires thousands of pages of proof and still won't be believed.

Monday's @thinkingautism.com newsletter is a roundup we shouldn't have needed of the 3-ring circus that was this week in autism news, incl how obvious aspects of the Big Boondoggling Autism Announcement went largely unaddressed while weak debate-think framing dominated buttondown.com/TPGA/archive/
