How does she figure?
"When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world—'No. You move.'"

"The patient died because we didn't use enough leeches."

Is that how that line goes?
Working every day to expose the terrible price we pay for government.

My question is what the fuck is even in Iowa that makes them so important?

My reaction to the bleach enemas being sold as autism cures:



"I don't have enough of a lifetime to explain everything wrong with that." - Obscurus Lupa


No Sovereign but God. No King but Jesus. No Princess but Celestia.

Well, given the stuff that Scientology promotes, Jim Humble's idiocy sounds like it fits right in.

I think some of the problem with how our culture deals with autistic people is how it medicalizes everything and have been doing so since the 19th century (when medicalization was used to harm people with physical deformities under the pretext of protecting them).

Thanks. :)

Just to clarify: the quote itself isn't from there, it's from her book Thinking in Pictures, but the concept's the same.
