This is a photo of a prison in Texas. Serious question: Can anyone find other instances of prisoners doing this in any other prison, anytime, anywhere on Earth?

A few months ago the Liberal party of Canada was so weak Justin Trudeau had to resign and call for an early election where everyone expected the Conservatives to win in a landslide. But since then something happened that made Canadians change their minds entirely. I wonder what that something could have been

You know the worst place to be running away from a vampire? A mirror maze. You hear the vampire's voice, you hear them, but you don't see them, you only see yourself reflected over and over, and yet the vampire could be just right behind you

When I was in middle school in Mexico my city transformed under the threat of organized crime. It happened in literally one day, there was gun fight between police and the criminals, and that heralded the change. Afterwards there was a wave of kidnappings. People would be taken off the street by masked people, and held for ransom. Most were never released. It happened to people I knew

What I remember most is the fear. It's odd to live in a society were everyone is afraid. The fear tints every moment of your life, it never goes away, how could it? Anyone could be captured at any time

Eventually we did overcome this. My city became safe enough that to this day we get refugees from other cities that haven't been able to overcome this challenge

Once I was walking from CERN to Verney-Voltaire at like 2 am (my bike was busted) and as I walked a car stops next to me

Inside there's this guy, he kinda looked like the human version of a teddy bear. Short, fat but not that much, and very charismatic. He asks me what I'm doing in the highway so late, I explain a little, he offers to give me a ride. I accept and I try to open the copilot door, but it doesn't open. He says "no no, you'll be more comfortable in the back."

Suddenly sirens go off in my mind. "DANGER DANGER DANGER" they blast all over my consciousness. "I go in the copilot seat or I don't go," I explain

His expression changes entirely. His charisma is gone. He looks ahead. "Fine," he says and rides away

I kept walking for hours until I reached my apartment

I often wonder how much of a bullet I dodged that day

So RFK wants to create an "autism registry" and this worries me because I think this is their plan:

1.- Create registry

2.- Argue that all people with severe autism are intellectually disabled (this isn't true, btw)

3.- Whenever someone in the registry becomes "problematic" they could argue that "their autism was more severe than previously thought and they need help", blocking them from making legal decisions and basically doing a James Spears (putting them under a conservatorship or something like that)

Consider this nightmare scenario: Imagine there's a non-verbal autistic person who works at a software company, they could argue this person is unable to take care of themselves, send them to a nursing home, use their savings to pay for it, even selling their things, and this person would be unable to defend themselves or voice out their opposition
