Drops

 If 7,000,000,000 people waste 1 drop of water in 1 day that is equal to approximately 92460.21875 gallons.  Things to think about.

Screaming

 A lot of times I write things here to keep from screaming in the dark.  I've moved past howling with frustration.  One of my close friends, her mom popped positive for Covid.  She's got alzheimer's and is in a nursing home which is most likely why she got it.  She's in her 80s.  I'm worried.  It just keeps getting worse.  I understand people want things to be normal again.  I understand that people are being evicted and losing their small businesses because the federal government won't do anything to help.  It's not right.  It's the federal government's fault that everything is like this.  The politicians live so far above the common people they have no idea about the hell people are living in right now. A character in a Robert Heinlein book said that diapers and politicians should be changed frequently for the same reason.  I feel the truth of that.

The Federation

 Ok this wild idea just came to me.  How about us geeks and nerds come together to form a sociopolitical movement called The Federation?  We could base it on the principles of The United Federation of Planets except on just a global scale.  Healthcare for all.  Education for all.  No meddling with societies that don't have/want/care about modern conveniences (Amazon tribes, Amish, etc). Promoting the betterment of ourselves so we can better society and the planet we live on.  No nationalism, no racism, no discrimination. Period.  No sponsorship by corporations.  If a person in our movement who is running for or voted in to office they cannot accept corporate money.  Period. We as humans beings need to remember that we as human beings need to care about and lift up each other, not advance corporate agendas that are ruining our world through pollution and greed. 

Yeah. I know.  Crazy. But I'd rather be crazy than live under trump another four years.

Tedium

 I guess everyone needs to invent a purpose for their life.  I don't have a purpose.  That makes it hard to get out of bed sometimes.  My brain just goes "screw this" and I go back to sleep.  I know it's not a very healthy way to deal with things but I'm at a loss.  It seems like nothing I can do will matter either to the big picture or in the long run.  I envy people who have faith in a god that personally watches over them and protects them.  I think that gives them hope and purpose. Unfortunately I don't believe god is like that. At all. But what I do believe is a bit complicated. I do know that the god portrayed in the old testament of the Bible is not a god I could put my faith in.

When?

 When will we get season 5 of Rick and Morty?!!
