Quote from: Alex on January 06, 2026, 12:32:45 AMHad to ditch one of the Autism groups I've had started following. 90% of its posts were about autistic kids that had wandered off by themselves and died. I understand the need to raise awareness, but this was relentless. These acknowledgements might be for someone who had died recently or had done so years or decades ago. I don't know if it was friends or family sending the details or what, but reading these obituaries every day wasn't helping me in any way and I don't think their are any words that I could say that would make anyone who did know the victim any.

Our street isn't too bad, but the main one running through the estate was basically a sheet of ice from one side to the other. Guess I'll be doing to penguin waddle getting home in that. Schools were closed yesterday. Today they are opening late (the high school is only opening because volunteers gritted the long path from the road down to the school.
