Daily Hymns
On Sundays the hymns for the ward are posted in the LDS Gospel Library app. I usually listen to those for my daily hymns. Today the hymns were Easter favorites. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints doesn’t celebrate Palm Sunday and we usually celebrate Easter on Easter. But lately Holy Saturday and…

Pustular
I learned a new word today. Something that is oozing pus is pustular. Ether’s butt is bloody and pustular. He needs to see a vet, but nobody has the spoons for that. Stephanie put on some lotion and it seemed to help. He’s in better shape than he was this winter in all other regards.…

He Lives in our Heads
I just told Stephanie to shut up about Donald Trump. He is living in both our heads. He’s just a bum. He’s not a god. He is not a demon. Presidents are supposed to go away. I really hope on January 20th, 2029 he goes away. Back to real estate. Maybe he’ll find Jesus. Jesus…

Art and Politics
I made a new server on Discord last week. It’s for my politics. The one I had already is for my art. My art friends came to my political server but my political friends didn’t come to my art server. Art is inherently political and politics is an artform. I am currently working on being…

Video Games and Drugs
I am thinking about obsessive and addictive behavior today. As anyone who has been following me for very long knows I play an excessive amount of video games. I am much more moderate with my alcohol and THC use. But they fill a lot of the same functions in mental health /illness. They are an…

Different
I am different from anyone else. That really isn’t saying much since every individual is unique. The question is whether I am more unique. I joked with my dad today that we were embarrassingly white. I remember a joke book that poked fun at WASPs (white Anglo Saxon Protestants). I didn’t realize that all those…

Snow in March
We got six inches of heavy wet snow. Over the course of the day I’ve gotten all of our sidewalks scraped off and most of the driveway. I’ve got to get the rest of the driveway in the morning because I ran out of light. I took my pills a few minutes ago so I…

Stephanie Yells
Stephanie is yelling at me about genocide again. There’s nothing I can do about it if it’s actually happening. I’m uninformed. She’s yelling at me about that too. There are lies, damn lies, and statistics. She passed her statistics class. I didn’t. She reads way more than I ever will. Such is my lot in…

You Have 30 Seconds
I have a love hate relationship with advertisements. I grew up in the 80s. I usually got about 10 minutes of show time for a minute and a half of ads. I know what I can do for a minute and a half while I’m ignoring ads playing. Today’s ads are very often voluntary in…
