"autism didn't exist back in my day"
(sh.itjust.works)
dude was an absolute character
In between those events, he won 22 games for the Philadelphia Athletics; [...] toured the nation in a melodrama called The Stain of Guilt; courted, married, and became separated from May Wynne Skinner of Lynn, Massachusetts; saved a woman from drowning; accidentally shot a friend through the hand; and was bitten by a lion."
the wikipedia just RANDOMLY DROPPED that he was bitten by a LION with no context?!?
my grandpa obsessed over fishing, TV sports, and Volkswagen beetles, every year for Christmas I would get him a little beetle figurine. he is 100% the source of autism in our family
