"Why is self-control, autonomy, such a threat to authority? Because the person who controls himself, who is his own master, has no need for an authority to be his master. This, then, renders authority unemployed. What is he to do if he cannot control others? To be sure, he could mind his own business. But that is a fatuous answer, for those who are satisfied to mind their own business do not aspire to become authorities." ~ Thomas SzaszThe Empire of Pretantia wrote:[...] TLDR; welcome to the internet.

Actually, I'm disappointed in all the harmful misconceptions about autism in general. Let's just go with that.

If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless. Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. | Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’James 1:26-27, Matthew 7:21-23

We're having highs in the 60s and 70s for the entire week, with highs approaching 80 around Christmas Day. I can't complain about the lack of bitter winds, but it does ruin the mood a little.
I'm also disappointed that so much of NS history is lost to newcomers like me, preserved only in memories. I like looking at the past.

Plus we're not getting snow for Christmas. Nor for New Year. Instead we'll be enjoying a three-day traffic shutdown.
