I’m the proud parent of two kids on the Autism spectrum.
I love my kids. I love them as they are. I love the way they think. I love being a part of their lives.
And Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. can go fuck himself. Stay the fuck away from my kids, and stop thinking they’re a fucking problem you brain-worm infested moron needs to fix.
It doesn’t matter if they never pay taxes.
He’s worked really hard his freshman year in high school and came away with an unreal number of academic awards (11, I think?) at the end of the school year.
And it’s a huge school! His class is the size of my entire high school.

Experimented with my aeropress recipe, changing the water from 180 to 185.
And was astonished by the difference. In a bad way!
Said recipe:
20 grams coffee - 8.5 on encore grinder
180-deg water (third wave classic)
100 grams water. Stir
100 grams water. Plug, wait 2min
Plunge. Fill with hot water
In a recent life, I used to joke that I was in charge of all the “creepy stuff” at a Marketing Technology startup.
I was a product manager in charge of things like identifying anonymous visitors, intent (more on this soon) and advertising targeting.
I helped build systems which would take an ip address, triangulate it between different sources of identification and settle on what company or account to attribute it to in a world at the time where most everybody was working from home.
