A good section of the process is in a Class 4/5 drought. We are in desperate need of some consistent rain (without lightning).

They are absolutely the lesser of two evils compared to the BC Libs. There are some areas where they don’t seem very different, but on the human rights front they’re usually a lot better.

That said, I’m surprised they haven’t given any increase to disability payments during their tenure. With the rate of inflation it’s a necessity for many people.

Mostly. r/197 wasn’t really a sequel to r/195. It was mostly made up of people banned from r/196.

Losing a pet is one of the hardest things you can go through. I hope they’ll be okay.

It gives fecal transplants a bad name too.

They are a perfectly valid treatment for actual colon-related health issues. They are not a “cure” for autism. Autism isn’t something that needs to be cured.

Not at all! No worries.

Autism isn’t curable because it’s not a disease. It’s a difference in brain development. You can no more cure it than you can cure ADHD or being transgender.

What you can do is provide a child support. Autism is a spectrum, and some children will need more support than others. Early-childhood behavioural and communication therapies can make a massive difference in the long-term prognosis for a child with autism. Different educational approaches can also help quite a bit. This isn’t going to solve the problem for every single child, but the outlook for people with autism is significantly better than it was in the 80s.

I sincerely hope life doesn’t force you to become the caretaker of an autistic child.

I absolutely refuse to put another human being on a dying planet, so no need to worry about that. Regardless, if I do somehow end up with a child, I’m fully on-board to support them no matter how they turn out.
