Oooof, I missed your words, your mind. This gives me all the feels. I received goosebumps from “In the silence, the voice of the pines, the murmur

of their interconnection, the synesthetic reverberance,

the generosity of them. Those ancient autistic icons!

Thank you is a feeling. Autistic yes.”

A certain gentleman in Washington is convinced that vaccines cause children to become autistic.

I don't know what you think about this, but reading your words, I'm glad I gave my daughter every vaccine possible.

There will never be a shortage of people who believe that any deviation from "normality" (whatever that means, be it circumcision or a difference in DNA or the way sunlight, as long as it continues to shine, highlights our skin tone) is a danger, making it impossible to share experiences and values ​​(why?). These people remind me of earthworms who distrust butterflies because they can fly and they crawl.

I’m seeing this again for the second time and that bat ear photo is (still) brilliant!
