A lot of adults grew up with autism traits that were missed, misunderstood, or explained away. Autism is not new. What’s newer is people finally having language for what was missed. How many adults were never difficult at all, just misunderstood?

Shedeur Sanders’ first NFL win is a masterclass in self-belief. People doubted him. He trusted his preparation. Mental health isn’t just surviving. It’s knowing who you are — even when others don’t see it yet. #MentalHealthMonday
Today we honor Martin Luther King Jr. on the King Holiday. He spoke about healthcare, labor, and dignity long before we had the language for health equity. This is a reminder that health has always been shaped by systems, not just individual choices.
Michael Beasley’s story hit hard. Grief does not always look obvious. Sometimes it looks like someone still showing up, still working, still playing, and still being expected to function like nothing happened. This is why mental health conversations matter, especially for Black men.
Public heartbreak is still heartbreak. The internet may laugh, but behind the jokes there is still a real person dealing with disappointment, loneliness, and loss. Sometimes a breakup is also grief in disguise.

The PHQ-9 isn’t just a depression test. It’s a snapshot of how your environment is affecting your mind. Sleep. Energy. Concentration. Stress. Appetite. Hopelessness. This tool catches what many communities have been taught to hide.

Traveling to speak on Black fatherhood and neurodiversity. Quick reminder: Not every child acting out in public needs discipline. Some are sensory overloaded. Some are autistic. Some have ADHD. Lead with empathy, not judgment.
As the season ends, it’s worth asking who gets included—and who doesn’t. Kevin Ortiz traveled to all 32 NFL stadiums in a wheelchair to show how access, dignity, and mental health are deeply connected. Design choices matter. Inclusion matters.

Every week this administration produces a new masterpiece of brazen criminality. Trump is sitting in the Oval Office, ancient, oleaginous, trembling with senility, and what does he do? Conjures a $1.8 billion slush fund from the ether to pay off his cronies. Not infrastructure. Not healthcare.

Journalist: People at home feel anxious and confused about the Iran deal. Trump: That's good. That's good they're confused, and the Iranians are confused. It's just the way I am. So…is he saying that he’s confused? 🤔 And that’s a good thing? 😳
