Autism, MMS, and Trump
In the newest installment of what I like to call, "This Might be How America Ends," Trump half-listened to what was being said at today's White House Coronavirus press briefing and then summarized it in a wildly irresponsible way.
Disability in Steven Universe: Monster Reunion
I have a bone to pick about the way this person behaved.
