A few issues and a different focus...

I haven't written in six months, maybe more. During that time, I got kicked off the net's biggest survival forum, actually more like harassed until I had to leave, simply because one poster thought I was "whining", and suddenly everybody rallied around him and started bashing me. The guy who started it has followed me from forum to forum since around 2009 or 2010, simply to bash me. He even convinced one forum owner to make him a mod simply so he could ban me. When I started posting on survival forums, I was in a really bad place personally, and did stuff I regret and angered people. But to hold a grudge like that for six years is unreasonable imo.

So, this blog will no longer have a survival component. I am a far inferior blogger on survival topics to top dogs like Fernando Aguirre, whose themodernsurvivalist.com blog should be in everybody's bookmarks, and his books in every bookcase. Instead, I will focus primarily on autism and maybe throw in a little politics.

As you may be aware, parents of autistic kids are getting attention for themselves by doing things like live tweeting meltdowns and posting videos of their kid's meltdowns. Specifically, a couple in Canada live tweeted a meltdown that went for HOURS. Did they try helping their son? Nope, they were locked in their bedroom tweeting how awful their son is. I will address this specific case in another post.
