Small update… Yesterday, I completed my first of (apparently many) visits to the physical therapist for my hip arthritis. I received a little bit of a massage, which I appreciated, but I hold little hope of it actually being helpful. But, the therapist did propose an interesting theory on how I got sacroiliitis.

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs is a theory that I generally agree with. It can be used to help understand situations, people, and society. But, it shouldn’t be considered concrete and substantive. People are people and can have, on occasion, amazing jumps in logic and luck, positive and negative. So, this will always remain a theory.… Read more

Once that moment has passed, the news moves on to another topic and all that effort doesn’t mean anything. That time and financial investment into the news is gone.

I just watched a half-an-hour documentary about possible LGBTQ+ historical figures. Honestly, I was really confused. The speaker used what she thought were the proper pronouns while showing paintings of the person and explaining their life circumstances, family, and how society may see them. So, for example, there was a painting about a guy who… Read more

Movies are, first and foremost, a business. They employ thousands of people and push the development of a nation and, by extension, the world. Movie theaters create jobs as well as help keep some businesses, like travel, lucrative. Streaming services, like Netflix and HBO+, are born. While these cause their own complications with the cable… Read more

While my mind hasn’t quite turned to fictional pursuits, I have started to think about the aftermath of Covid. Actually, I don’t think the word ‘aftermath’ is the correct term. That would indicate that the situation happens after the main situation is over. It’s the bill that needs to be paid. In truth, this situation… Read more
