Kristi Noem cancelled book tour appearances this week due to "severe weather" in South Dakota. I wanted to let everyone know that, despite this awful, awful weather, we are keeping safe and will somehow survive.

Granted, I live a three hour drive from Kristi, so I included a screen shot of the weather app showing how things are in Pierre today.

@GottaLaff At least there's no possible way anyone could have seen this coming (/sarcasm)

Autism Databases: A Script for Calling Your Reps

Remember how some states collect information about their autistic residents, and keep a list of autistic people who were diagnosed in that state? I certainly have not forgotten, though I have run into some dead ends in my advocacy. The American Psychological Association has still declined to respond or comment on this issue, the ACLU has not responded at all, and the Office for Civil Rights basically told me that these…

I’m glad Kristi Noem is getting hate for killing a dog, as she should be, and I want to make sure folks know she’s terrible for lots of other reasons too

-Cutting lunch programs for low income kids
-Making SD hostile to trans people
-Banning abortion
-Racism

And much more. She’s vile.

No mask mandate because South Dakotans are “too smart” to need one, but she overturned our vote to legalize weed because we “didn’t understand” what we were voting for 🙄

@Barbramon1 YUP! If you’re banned from a chunk of your state you’re definitely not fit to govern it

I can’t wait for people to tell me I can’t criticize Kristi Noem’s book if I haven’t read it 🙄

I read the excerpts in the article. Why on EARTH would I expose myself to more of her words. What good will come from that?

@DemocracyMattersALot “Don’t you hate it when the hired help witnesses you killing the family dog? Vote for me I am very relatable”

@DemocracyMattersALot I suppose for those people she is relatable

@thepoliticalcat If she truly felt the dog couldn’t be trained she should have re homed it

Hello @actuallyautistic friends! My next article is about managing autistic meltdowns: how autistic people can manage our meltdowns safely, and affirming ways our loved ones can support us.)

Nobody Asked Me: Keep Off

Welcome back to another episode of Nobody Asked Me, the column where I answer advice questions that were not sent to me. Today's query is from Dear Abby, and her response is wonderful, but I wanted to add my own thoughts. Quick content warning: this post talks about child sexual abuse. Photo by Darina Belonogova on Pexels.com I am uncomfortable about being touched.

Husband is playing a video game where his character is a skeleton.

H: I got the living armor!
Me: What's that?
H: It's armor made of living cells that protects your bones
Me: So you're a skeleton covered in outer layers of cells?
H: Yes.
Me: So like a person.
H: No it's different

Having a high anxiety evening for no particular reason. Reminding myself my feelings can be both valid and not grounded in reality. 💜

I don’t mean to sound like a conspiracy theorist but I’m finding it hard to believe that the installation of ONE light pole knocked out 911 services in four states, and not even four states that all border on each other

I know we rightly criticize Twitter's current bot problem but I'd also like to whine about Facebook. I can't even mention ADHD anymore without a bunch of spammers showing up to try and teach me microdosing. It's quickly becoming unusable.

@ashleyspencer Oh by the way apparently it's A Thing for hackers to steal banking info via Facebook hacks, and Facebook does exactly nothing at all to stop them or help you recoup your money: https://jennytrout.com/?p=13774
