7. When someone utters the word "genius" whose picture comes to mind? For a lot of people around the world, it's Albert Einstein. He was thought to have been neurodivergent.

Four-panel comic. (1) SadMan: "For some time, my employer has been trumpeting its commitment to "Inclusive Excellence." (2) <pause.> (3) <Pause.> (4) That's is. That's the joke. <Purple-spotted banner lettering: "Happy Autism Awareness Month!">
It's an "initiative," apparently. #autismappreciation #autismawareness

It’s here! “Hi World, I’m Dad” officially launches today in print, digital, and audiobook.
I narrated the audiobook myself, and it was one of the most emotional things I’ve ever done.

#AutismAwareness is not enough.
#AutismAcceptance, #AutismAppreciation, hugs, and free pizza is a bare bones start.

Absolutely. And I look forward to the day when neurotypical children and adults are encouraged by teachers, employers, and community leaders to learn about autistic culture and expression so friendships and other relationships can be deeper and more sustainable.

Lucas trusts me, as his father, to know what’s important. He might not always think crossing the street promptly is a big deal, but he understands that I do. And out of respect for me, he does it. #autism #autismappreciation

It’s about helping him find balance, even if he doesn’t know to ask for it. That’s what being his dad is all about—making the tough calls, trusting my instincts, and giving him the space to grow in ways I never imagined. #autism #autismappreciation 💙
