If I had been told at 15, when my GP told my mum to get me tested for Aspergers but she kept it secret from me, that I could be autistic, then I wouldn't have grown up hating myself. Life wouldn't have become a bed of roses, but I would have had self acceptance, better understanding of myself and not grown up hating myself for feeling like a useless failure who was just inherently dumb. Sure, the rest of the world and my family wouldn't have changed their behaviour towards me all that much, but I wouldn't have internalised all the criticism and condemnation as much.
But it's so normalised. Rarely newsworthy, it's so acceptable. I'm seeing more and more SUVs (Chelsea tractors) in London, the most ridiculously huge emotional support vehicles. Standing at the bus stop watching the cars go by, nearly all of them have just a driver, no passengers. We have good public transport in London, and I get there will always be some people for whom buses or bikes aren't an option, but I wish there was more of a move away from cars.
As a cyclist, some drivers (a minority, but even one is too much) will happily leave barely a few centimetres clearance when passing. Or get unnecessarily aggressive because there isn't room to overtake, even though there's a red light anyway, so why the rush? I swear, you stick someone in a car and suddenly other people's lives are expendable if it means shaving 3 seconds off their journey.
(Morons on modded ebikes - effectively unlicenced motorbikes really - are another gripe for another day. Red lights apply to you too, you muppets. And get off the frickin pavement.)
It's for leaking state secrets to Epstein, not the other stuff he was doing there. Let's hope that investigation comes next.
