Dumb phone
My smartphone is definitely making me dumber.
So is yours.
Yet, here we are on our phones.
Beautiful mind
I do have a beautiful mind. I do. I don’t use it enough. I know this. I should write a book. About my life. My life has been mega interesting. I was raised without running water electricity. Vegetarian. Then my mom married a taxidermist! Lol My life has been weird. And then I got multiple sclerosis. In high school! That sucked. So much for my cheerleading career lol so yeah I should write a book. I could inspire others. But that seems like it would take so long. And I don’t know if I have the energy in me to write a book. Instead, I spend my day trying to stay alive. So far I’m successful. That’s how I spend every day. I wake up and I say, just for today I will stay alive. Yes I could write a very interesting book. Probably could make some money. But I have to not be lazy. And I’m lazy. And I have multiple sclerosis. Life is tough. I can’t type. I am using a voice application right now. And I don’t want to write a book with a voice application. So everyday it’s just about survival. And that’s okay because so far today is a great day. I’m still alive.
Goodbye 20/25
Tea with Darwin
Stream of consciousness
Sometimes I just think. About weird s***. Is the planet alive? Maybe. And if it is, maybe oil is the blood of the planet. And we are just the flea on the dog given the chance to live on the planet. And what do we do with that ability? We suck her blood! We are literally fleas on a dog it’s the dog is the planet. We are the flea. The dogs blood is oil! I think of the most twisted analogies at bedtime.
Patience
I hate patience It’s the worst virtue. Every day I’m waiting. Waiting for death. I do not dream of stuff. I don’t look forward to death. But every day I’m just waiting for death. I have no patience bring it on already. This life sucked. I’m ready for the next. I hope my soul learned something from this life, because a life with multiple sclerosis is grim. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve enjoyed it. I made splendid memories. Truly I have. But I also can’t wait to have working legs again. It’s been a few decades. And for this I have no patience. So do I look forward to death? No of course not. I want to live as long as possible. But at the same time, I really hope my next life is better. Because truthfully this one was great, except for the working legs. Minus the multiple sclerosis. Kudos to whoever made this life. I enjoyed playing out the script. But I have no patience. With the words from Ghostbusters 2 I leave you with this, time is but a window. Death is but a doorway. I’ll be back!
Goodbye 2025
They told me it was the year of disclosure. To who?
Did you get the memo? I certainly did not.
And they still see no aliens. They lied to me,
Again. Uncle sam, you are forgiven.
Don’t cancel my disability. I love you 🇺🇸
Where did six, seven come from?
You were every parents of the small children’s nightmare
In 2026, I won’t expect much.
No aliens. No democracy. Americans are out of touch,
With each other. But there’s always a new year.
So I wish you all love, and send you cheer.
Look back at 2025
The year of disclosure they said it would be,
Not a single alien do I see!
Drones in New Jersey got us hyped
Nothing happened but Trump and his media fight.
Mass media merges! CBS now conservative. MSNBC now MSNOW
A Muslim man is mayor of NYC. And we don’t know how
It’s beginning of a Blue Wave. Don’t worry it’ll turn back to red
It will go back and forth, until we are dead.
December is here. And no aliens still.
Fucking lie to me again! I will get my close encounter, I will I will.
So the year came and went and we’re still alive
The country is still here, next year we’ll thrive!
Next year we will see 👽, Vikings win, Maybe DT six feet deep.
Here’s to hoping! We will get what we reap
Not Armageddon. No Horseman but of course,
It will be the year of the Chinese fire horse!
Stimulating
This world has too much damn stimulation. What are you going to do today? Between going on Facebook and scrolling, Googling random facts, if you get sick of technology you can always read a book. That’s pretty stimulating.
Do you ever worry that maybe we have too much stimulation? Don’t you feel more relaxed when you’re just out in nature. With no technology. No Gadget. Just fresh air.
I think it’s a little crazy human people tell me they’re bored. How can you ever be bored? There’s always something to do! I can’t remember the last time I was bored. There are times when I don’t know what to do, but that’s not being bored. I think when we often say, I’m bored! It’s really saying I don’t know what to do.
And there is always something to do! Have We Become overly stimulated? Remember when you were a kid, and you had a porno mag and that was risque and cool. Maybe you’d seen a porn video. But today, sex is overly stimulated. You don’t even want to know what your children have already seen. Neither do i!
At what point should we stop stimulating. We are becoming a little hedonistic. And that can’t be good!
What will we do when we have everything?
I’m serious. I am middle class. I am disabled. But my life does not suck. I am super stimulated with all the stuff I can do everyday. What happens when I don’t have my Ms to bitch about? What happens when we solve every Health crisis? Because we are getting there. Stimulating isn’t it?
