No Time To Write Tonight, But There's Always Time To Write, Until Someone Decides To Take It Away

 Quote of the century: 

“When everyone in the world thinks they know who you are, you don’t want to be who you are.”

I was actually accidentally/incidentally listening to Genesis, Squonk tonight: "if you don't stand up, you don't stand a chance." (and some things you don't admit). "Come on, come on, come on, come on and take it, take another little piece of my heart now, baby." Could just craft a blog post out of other people's words. 🤔 But yeah, when everyone's got a vested interest in you, for whatever reason, make you inferior, cash, dominance, make you kiss the ground stuff, pick a topic, I just wonder where his/her/their self-examined life is? Look inward and then get back to me. I'm from Wisconsin so there's not much to lose. Grace is the beauty that no dollars will ever buy. Kick me to the ground, scorched earth goes both ways and I excel in walking in deserts, no water, no love, no life. I'll walk a mile (or more in those shoes) and I don't do it for me, I do it to share (ed. note, I never finished this and share was the last word that I wrote and I am not sure where it was headed. I am also not sure when the draft was written. Don't really want to publish it for its wallowing nature, on the other hand: the self-examined life. OMG, 2026!)

 

Mental Health Awareness Month → Blah, Blah, Blah

 Eddie Murphy couldn't write a bigger joke. First of all, unless you have a pathogen in your brain, or cancer, aneurysm, etc., it ain't illness, it was just bad programming or it's just the way you are and you just happen to bother the rest of the people around you. Fuck 'em all, yeah I said "fuck" -- it's just a fucking word, it don't mean shit unless you let it mean shit, but then fuck would mean shit and you'd cause confusion everywhere. Second, the people who can actually bring more equanimity to the world, the ones with the power, aren't really interested in doing so. Just keep the people one or two steps away from revolting and all will be well on your yacht, otherwise, likely no yacht.  Lastly, your supposed "mental health" can and will be used against you. When we start weaponizing health (and as we currently do, cigarette smokers and health insurance, hello!) -- so, worth repeating, when we start weaponizing health, it's all over. Sure, if you are rich, go tell your sob story of whatever ailments you have, grab some sympathy and marketing clicks, but if you are poor or in the class of precarity, it's your own economic suicide to do anything but show everyone else that you have zero fucking vulnerabilities. And, while we are at it, can the corporate world stop weaponizing "empathy" -- that word doesn't belong to y'all, you don't need it anyway.
