My son told me he was awarded the Leslie Neilson badge at school. I asked “What's that?” He said, “It's a big building with lots of kids, but that's not important right now.”

"A slew of 20th-century politicians & cultural figures... believed that learning-disabled people – & #disabled people in general – were not just pitiful & wretched, but a threat to #humanity’s future, an idea expressed in the... non-science of #eugenics. They included... Winston Churchill, DH Lawrence (who had visions of herding disabled people into “a lethal chamber as big as the Crystal Palace”), & lots of people thought of as progressives."

Please boost? My son & d-i-l in #Houston found a #LostDog under my son’s truck. Spring Branch / Rollingwood area. Male, looks like a Husky / shepherd mix? Very smart, very affectionate, well socialized, good on a leash, loves toys. Is currently sprawled across my d-i-l’s lap on the sofa. Misses his ppl, we’re sure, so pls spread the word. #DogsOfMastodon

It really is that simple.
