I think I’m kind of missing the boat on this whole Elon/Twitter deal. I know that the liberals are panicking and attacking Elon on multiple fronts. The liberal plebs are denouncing Twitter and canceling their accounts. Those who have hidden and manipulated information are afraid that they will be exposed. A Ministry of Truth has… Read more

It’s kind of funny how childhood trauma influences adulthood. For example, my family lost our house to a fire. Everything, from records, to Cabbage Patch Dolls, to the goldfish in the five-gallon tank by the big picture window, was gone in less than an hour. After a couple of weeks’ stay at a hotel, dad… Read more

Back when I was a wee lass in the 1980s, I remember someone telling me that I should be grateful for my bread and food. People all over the world would be grateful for what I left on my plate and people in USSR would stand in line for ten hours or more just for… Read more

I guess I’ve been kind of busy over the past couple of days. The ENGL202 term is ending – thank goodness. This class hates me. While they’re not as stupid as some of those from the last term, they are highly incompetent. Okay. Like, for example, last term there was a student who swore that… Read more

What we do, say, and become is justified and inevitable. We can deal with external forces as they can lean and develop… Read more

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. Over 20… Read more

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

I’m trying to decide if I messed up today. I didn’t go to the gym. Rather, I slipped out and went to a local park. It started raining and I keep walking until I was fairly drenched. I made my step count goal but have been battling a bit of a headache ever since. I… Read more

The news is a business. – Effective… even horrendously biased news… takes time, effort, and (occasionally) the credibility of its reporters. 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. From a monetary standpoint, a… Read more
