21 January 2025……<3

In lots of ways, I live in a perfect storm.


This morning, for example it snowed last night. Granted not a lot, but considering it hasn’t snowed for three years it is quite a thing here. So it is freezing outside and my plants are mostly outside. I hope they survive.


Why are the plants outside? Well, we are in the process of moving. We have so many boxes inside the apartment that I can hardly move my wheelchair. I can go from my bedroom to the front door and bathroom and maybe the kitchen. It is ridiculous. This world really was made for walking people. People in wheelchairs are second class citizens in many ways. That’s why I call most walking people “you people”.


Then I’d like to exercise, my body really needs it. I really don’t want to live forever, but my quality of life is much better if I exercise. I may have to take up high risk hobbie(skydiving, bungee jumping, etc.,) and maybe I can die sooner.I bought myself a rowing machine, but that ended up being too hard, and a feet of acrobatics to get on and off, the rowing machine is not easy to get on and off. .


So I bought a recumbent bicycle. Much easier to get on and off. And I use an app that lets me see different areas around the world that people have video recorded while they were riding their bicycle, but today, maybe because it’s so cold, the video was buffering like I was using dial up Internet, until the last 10 seconds of the video, then it was  clear and smooth, but the previous 30 minutes was pathetic.


In lots of ways, my life sucks but in many other ways, my life is OK.

18 January 2025…..and there was much rejoicing.

January 20th 2025, the end of an error. 


I will say I’m kind of excited for the possibilities of having a new president. I have not been overly excited about some things in the previous term. Let’s see what happens.


Overall, I would say politics is the entertainment arm of the government. It is very important, unfortunately. But the fact that so many people watch it and hope for some kind of an outcome that they like, is part of the reason why I call it the entertainment branch of the government.


I would say we have a real Democrat going into the office of president and the left mad.


The Democratic party does not exist anymore except for local elections, federally The Democratic Party is dead.  Some mayors and school boards are still Democrat. Federally the Democratic Party is dead and the Republican Party(MAGA) has become the Democratic party of the past.


So the only way you can be a real Democrat is, if you are voting for someone in some cities or local elections. San Antonio, for example, would be impossible to be a real Democrat because the city is too big.  The only way you can be a real Republican is to vote in some cities and local elections.


I hate watching political stuff. I watch YouTube a lot and do not like watching the political stuff but somehow it always brings the political stuff back up like I want to watch it. I don’t want to watch all the political stuff. Let me watch videos about growing peppers and other gardening or blacksmithing or other things. That said the political garbage always comes back up. It’s like the vomit is returning to the dog, the political stuff being the vomit and me being the dog. 


I am interested to see what will happen during the next four years. I have had my concerns. that said not nearly as many as the last four years.


One person I know, and many other people, were upset about Donald Trump being elected and it was because of abortion. Abortion isn’t even a federal thing. It is a state thing.


I do love watching some of the meltdowns of people that are upset with the federal presidential election. One more reason I called YouTube and politics entertainment.


But right now if anyone of you get sent to a “concentration camp”, let me know and I will send you a box of cookies or two. If I get sent to a concentration camp, send me a box of cookies, please. 


If you don’t like the Presidental outcome, that’s OK we can still be friends. One thing that I am annoyed with is people thinking that they can’t be friends with someone who thinks different than them politically. My cousin decided to block me years ago on Facebook because he disagreed with me politically. Funny but sad. Oh well.
