An interesting article about dating on the autism spectrum. I have some of these problems, but only mildly.

…shall punish the climate deniers! But don’t call it a religion. It’s science!
You can tell cuz they have fake graphs and maps and stuff.
Search And Rescue In Tenaya Canyon
There are some lessons to be learned here. We were just up there ourselves a couple weeks ago. People don’t realize how rugged it can get coming down from the high country into Yosemite Valley, even though most of the routes are pretty well known after many decades of hiking/climbing.

[Update a while later]
The cheapening of civil-rights history. They should be ashamed, but they’re shameless.
