I can't see this name aging well.

The actual Brady Bunch house is for sale. At $5.5 million, it's a very Brady deal. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/11222-Dilling-St-North-Hollywood-CA-91602/20025974_zpid/

A few weeks ago, I was very surprised to receive an email that my story, “Two Hands, Wrapped in Gold,” had been nominated for a Hugo Award for Best Novelette. As is customary, the awards team asked if I wished to accept the nomination or withdraw it from consideration. Unfortunately, I’ve decided to choose the latter option.

@quawzilla @cstross Or in meme form…

Lithuania is so based ❤️

I’m sure they were just standing their playground.

The dangers of Australia are exaggerated by the media. The truth is that at least 62% of Australian children reach adulthood without being consumed by predators. Not bad!

@actuallyautistic So I went to my event today. As I was waiting in line to order at the counter, I noticed I was flat out stimming. Not stimming to music, not secretly stimmings. I was stimming in the open. I was tapping my fists together. The middle phalanges of the left fist were hitting the base phalanges of the right.

I went down to sit with my coffee and waited for my food to arrive, and I continued stimming. Whenever my hands were not busy with something else I was stimming. My forms of stimming changed. Sometimes I was tapping my fists, sometimes I played the imaginary piano on the table.

My paresthesia was much lower during this event. I think the stimming was actually helping reduce the impact of social anxiety.

Nobody gave me grief over it. I openly told people that I'm autistic. One lady told me her 12yo daughter is also autistic.

I know I stimmed like this when I was younger, but I don't recall the details.

I'm learning to drop the mask.

every month I host a virtual coffee chat for autistic entrepreneurs & social entrepreneurs to connect, network, share their ideas, and discuss their successes & challenges as autistic leaders in the business & non-profit world.

In other words.

Trump promised the "best economy ever."

Biden actually delivered it:

• 17 straight months of sub-4% unemployment, the longest stretch of sub-4% unemployment in over 50 years

• Labor force participation for prime-working-age Americans at a 22-year high

• 13.2 million jobs created since Biden took office

• Wages rising faster than inflation

• Inflation and unemployment both lower than when Reagan won a landslide reelection in 1984

I’m on a short road trip to the Pacific Ocean for a writing retreat with two of my favorite people! And I forgot to bring my traveling copy of Late-Identified #AuDHD A Starter Workbook. Do I need to take this workbook traveling with around the state? No, but it’s fun. 🥰 Check out these older traveling photos from close to Mt. Baker.

@ScottSoCal

From what the technician said to me it seems like everyone finds it traumatic - it’s just for some people the response to it is to shut down so they don’t ‘feel’ it the same way. I guess I was just lucky to fall in to that camp.

I hope that the information they get from it makes it worth having gone through it.
