You got this! Best wishes to you and your family.

Is it possible that she’s rebelling because she - in her mind - got ripped away from friends? Maybe she’s also overwhelmed?

I would say you definitely have the trigger point in mind then. Who knows what else is going on in the new school that you as a parent don’t get to know easily?

I can only think how I’d go over it with my daughter, so this might not work for you. I would leave the matter of the meds to the side for any discussion for a little bit. Figure out the rest of her circumstances first, then reintroduce the meds once she feels understood again. This can also be very soon. Just don’t make the talks about the meds for now. Again, I don’t have experience with PDA but if you push too much too often it can be counterproductive even before factoring that in.

You will most likely have to get a new prescription for the strattera as well, as going from zero back to full will be problematic. It needs ramping up time with the dosage. Otherwise there will be side effects that might lead to setbacks. That’s personal experience.

I can’t really say anything about the autism, I myself am on strattera for ADHD.

For those meds I can say they have the side effect of making me drowsy/buzzy sometimes. A few hours after taking them. Maybe she has something like that and doesn’t associate it enough to talk about it, but somewhere still feels like she needs to refuse meds because something is going on?

From a parental view, my daughter had it recently that she suddenly changed her behaviour because of random words from peers in kindergarten. Managed to explain it to her on my end, but it was still tough with a non-autistic but strong headed girl. I don’t know your daughter’s circumstances, etc, but such a sudden change can also come from external sources you aren’t privy to. Maybe she opened up to a kid that then had a strong anti-med stance from its own upbringing? Maybe she was told somewhere that her parents are trying to make her be someone she isn’t - even if it’s not true. Maybe she’s doing it to fit in with that kid/group? Just possibilities.

I’m not saying it has to be something like that, it could also be something completely random. It’s just another two items on the list of things to possibly ask about.

There’s a “hub” mode where your endpoint inside the network grants access to the whole network like a standard VPN server.

Can just say: nope. No difference for me.

I thought of him first thing when I heard the news, but posting that, at least on Reddit, always gets a hoard of haters going.

I didn’t say don’t be loud, I’m saying don’t be a useful idiot for the other side at the same time. Apparently you want to misunderstand the point completely.

Fuck up the DNC libs, establishment democrats, etc! From the inside of possible.

Just don’t play into the hands of the Nazis by using rhetoric that makes their job of “pretending to not be the worst humans possible” easier.

And who do they draw from? The active base. If the complaints are loud enough, broad enough, from inside the party, that’s when they will have no choice.

“Oh there’s the dnc, can’t do anything, move on” is not a productive way to fight these things.

Use constructive criticism. Criticize the issues. Don’t put false equivalencies first.

No shit, Sherlock. And that’s why you’re helping the fascists with this comparison. You’re working in a two party system, being an idiot about how to actually change shit.

You’re not changing the one party that can be used for change for the better, you’re just whining and making them seek votes elsewhere.

And your own words show exactly what I mean.

There’s a marked difference between lazy fucks who didn’t properly bring it across the finish line and people actively working to make things worse. Correct my believe if I’m wrong: unless it’s a constitutional amendment, laws are fairly easy to overturn still.

And to ‘how many years’… How many years did people have to vote for progressive candidates in the lower levels to change the actual base of the party to where they want it to be? How many years have the voters not used to make it the party they want it to be?

This kinda shit is so fucking often due to progressives wanting things to be a certain way, but not putting in the legwork because “it’s a lost cause anyway”. With the democrats you have a chance to change the party into the progressive direction. Take an example from those maga assholes - it doesn’t take a lot of them to shift the republicans to be even worse.

Criticizing is great, putting it like OP with “they’re the same, democrats just put on a hat” is dishonest and reductionist. This kind of thing actively causes harm and plays into the hands of the party that’s objectively worse for anyone that’s not rich.

I think you misunderstood me?

I’m not saying the article is bad or wrong. I’m taking exception to putting kiddie gloves in headlines.

Think about the people who only read this concisely while browsing headlines. The headline is completely ambiguous and easily reinforces the person’s heels beliefs instead of laying out the important part of where it comes from.

This is before the author and content even comes into play.

Yeah, I did. The author uses political violence as the term throughout. The problem here is not what the author means but that they’re not directly addressing it in clear terms.

You had to guess/ask whether I read the article because the headline makes the source of the political violence ambiguous.

you can bet that an author pointing out a rise on the other side of the political spectrum would not go for muddy terms. This headline seen by a right wing person would just be something they would not click and assume it’s reassuring their fox news world view by a different outlet.

It’s “right-wing terrorism” not political violence as if the whole spectrum is engaged in the same shenanigans.

I’ve been running a Chromecast with Google TV 4k almost since its launch and I’ve been happy with it.

Easy less than the shield would’ve cost me and since it’s only for streaming from jellyfin and YouTube it works great

Incompetent seems pretty spot on since it can’t even burn the trash.

HIPAA covers the spreading of medical information by anyone who’s not the patient themselves.

Fuck cars refers to what they caused with car centric infrastructure. The lobbying that reduced that “fantasy” of public transport to rubble. It’s advocating for people centric cities.

At least check what is about before getting offended.
