Permanently banned from survival forums
Well, it seems that nobody in the survival community wants me around. Due to ONE post on the survival forum I used to be on, I have been permanently banned. That makes the THIRD survival forum to ban me permanently. Yes, I made a mistake, and insulted Christians, but one mod apparently thinks that I have a history of "childish, disruptive behavior" and has kicked me off permanently. So, this is my announcement that I'm done with survivalism. I may be taking this blog down too, since the original reason I put it up was for it to go viral and spin off some income. Only Google blocked my application for ads-permanently-and I have gotten a total of 600 odd views over two years. So, I'm done blogging, and done with survivalism. I may check the survival forum for news every so often, since I still can read it, but I can't post.

The foreshocks before the financial Big One: what to look for
Bad boys, bad boys, whatcha gonna do when they come for you? -Theme From COPS (by Inner Circle)
OK, so we all know that America's debt is unsustainable, and will cause one fuck of a debt collapse eventually. From reading about Argentina in 2001 and Greece in 2015, here are a few things to watch for so that you get out in time.
1) There is a long, years long, recession, one they can't cook the books to hide. When construction stops and businesses start firing people en masse, watch out.
2) This recession leads to big problems on Wall Street. Banks and brokers start failing. When this happens you need to move your money out of danger, although where to in the event that America goes down is a valid question.
3) The government starts in with the happy talk while everything is going to shit. When they start telling you your savings is safe, you may only have a few days to finish stocking up on food and water.
4) Only then do they establish the corralito, nationalizing all money in the banks (generally called a "bail in") leaving the country destitute. In America's case, this probably will apply to the entire PLANET, taking every red cent that's not under your mattress (although they may have been keeping track of withdrawals and gold/silver purchases, in which case it's time to lock and load) and using that money to make good the bad debts. By then it's too late. People in Greece knew that eventually the corralito would arrive, as much as FIVE YEARS AGO! Did they do anything, of course not.
So, that's what to look out for. People in Greece have been keeping Ferfal ( themodernsurvivalist.com ) updated. No cash, no banks, no food in the stores. The economy simply up and died. What will YOU do when it's your turn?

Back in the saddle again...
Well, I've been allowed back on the survival forum I was thrown off of four months ago. Looking over my blog, it seems that I mainly blog about survivalism anyway. For some weird reason, most of them seemed happy to have me back. So, I guess I can blog about survival topics again.

Here we go again...neurodiversity and vaccines-and suicide
I recently asked people on a survival forum (yes, I've been allowed back, more on that in another post) about what really is so bad about being neurologically different, in light of a Washington Post article about the neurodiversity acceptance movement. Immediately people started debating the whole vaccine thing again, I guess because the idea of neurodivergent people who do not want to be "cured" is something they can't bear to face.
Also, I learned a lot about mothers of ASD kids who regularly contemplate suicide, mainly because they have no support and no respite from what apparently are more severe cases of ASD than mine. The kid has autism, so hubby walks out and finds another model to tinker with, and all your "friends" suddenly decide that they never really liked you anyway, and bail. You can't work, so you go on welfare (once AFDC, now TANF, and facing yet another overhaul in Congress right now) and now EVERYBODY hates you. So, you decide to cash out early, and to take your kid with you.
WAIT! You need to know that you and your ASD kid have value, despite what other people think. As a radical conservative, I do hate people who get SSI for "anxiety" so they can sell drugs/women, chop up stolen cars, and run psychic scams (yes, there really was a case ages ago in Redding where a woman glommed onto SSI as a cover for running a cursed money scam) with impunity. And then there's the people who suffer for all that shit. People who really need assistance.
It seems that all the jobs have been exported, leaving Americans to sell cheap hamburgers to each other for money. As long as there are no jobs, the country will have to figure out ways to feed people. The English solution, where welfare is simply ended leaving millions to starve in the streets, is probably not viable in a country where the number of guns equals the number of people. So, the government will have to feed people. FDR's solution, which was moving city workers to the country so at least they could feed themselves, seems to not be on the table, probably because TPTB don't like the idea of people being independent.
So, what are families of ASD people to do? Living in rundown suburbs, unable to grow their own food which would at least give the kid (and mom) a reason to get up in the morning, and everybody around you deals drugs to survive. In that case, victimhood seems really appealing, especially when everybody else does it too. What's the answer? I don't know, except eventually TPTB are gonna try gas chambers again, what with 7 billion people on earth and 100 million added every year.

The Dreaded Ass Burger: Encyclopedia Dramatica and DSM Confusion
I suppose everybody in the autism community knows of this addition to the list of Web Pages That Will Live In Infamy:
https://encyclopediadramatica.se/Asperger%27s_Syndrome
Yep, it's ED's Ass Burger page. First off, autism and sociopathy are rarely lumped together except by people who either want to satirize (what, if anything, is still unclear) or are truly ignorant of mental illness. I have a cousin who made the mistake of marrying a sociopath, and the first thing that such a victim will say is that a sociopath is VERY charming-until he reels you in, then it's gutting and filleting time, and you're the fish. Aspies, meanwhile, couldn't charm a paper bag, as is evident from perusing Wrong Planet.
Also, the "aspies" listed on ED probably don't have autism at all, but rather some form of weird personality disorder. A common theme is that they live almost exclusively on the internet, posting bad artwork, worse slash, and generally looking to justify a non-existent "creative talent" by putting it on Deviantart or Tumblr so as to gain followers to feed their narcissism. Most REAL aspies avoid Tumblr as if it had deadly cooties (which it does in a sense). While it seems that many aspies had narcissistic parents, they themselves don't seem to be very narcissistic.
The main reason that an aspie will loiter in the net is because going out into public inevitably triggers a huge meltdown due to sensory overload. The main reason that an ED "aspie" stays online is because he/she wants to share their "talent" with planet earth. It helps if they can find people dumber than themselves to kiss their rears and who actually like bad art, or are too dumb to know how bad it is. In fact, ED aspies seem to have art/writing as the main reason they don't kill themselves. This completely ignores tech-oriented aspies, who wouldn't touch deviantart with a 39 1/2 foot pole. But, if one is trying to make a point about "lazy aspies", one will exclude programmers pulling in a couple hundred grand a year.
Sometimes I wonder what narcissistic losers did before the legalization of the public internet in 1993. I'm old enough to remember that world, and I know that books were cheaper relative to income, and there were places called "bookstores" where people browsed books and bought them, walking out with a plastic bag (sporting reinforced handles) full of cool shit to read. There were compact discs, sold in places called record stores, where people browsed music. Music was played on contraptions called radios, and my generation recorded songs off them onto "cassette tapes". I remember the flyers pasted to light poles in downtowns: "Three Abominations Before GOD: 1) Abortion 2) Homosexuality 3) Bill Clinton", "Still Life With Rent Due #6" (this consisted of a stack of papers with an apple on top), "Muni Riders Before Resistance Begins" (cows on a bus, this one was protesting some insignificant issue with Muni, San Francisco's famously incompetent transit system).
Back then, the only way the public could be heard was to write letters to newspapers. It wasn't like today where any weirdo can spew trash endlessly to cyberspace where it will last longer than a plastic bag in the ocean or until the Iranians set off an EMP bomb, whichever comes first. There are no gatekeepers like in the old days. So, what else is there to do in a world where you can earn more being disabled than by asking if the customer wants to supersize that order?
