  • Violence and Murder

    Yesterday my youngest son wanted a bath at an inappropriate time. I said no and it started a meltdown. We had to use emergency medication to deescalate him. He was able to get a bath in the afternoon and go with his respite worker. While he was gone Stephanie got our new cat Ether. When…

  • Stephanie and Ether

    We got another cat today. He is Ether and he’s still kinda scared of Magic. Cosmos has been a little more friendly. Wish us all luck.

  • Downgoing Men

    There’s a line in Dr. Jeckle and Mr. Hyde that goes something about the protagonist being “the last reputable friend of downgoing men.” I identify with that line. I must admit that I very often want to stop their slow slide into depravity. I am a judgmental person and that comes in handy talking to…

  • So Very Sleepy

    Yesterday was busy. Appointments, shopping, and taking the new cat to the Humane Society to see if they can find the original owner. I also had caffeine and THC again. So it’s understandable that I am sleepy today. There will always be appointments and shopping, so I (and we) need to keep up our energy.…

  • How Many Black Cats?

    Last night I was having trouble sleeping so I got up and went downstairs for a melatonin. On the landing was Magic. In the living room was Cosmos. In the office was Magic. Wait what? There were three black cats. I didn’t believe my eyes. I could clearly see that one of the cats was…

  • Snake’s Day 2025

    It’s St. Patrick’s Day and I am a snake that he would try to drive out. I got into a conversation with a Catholic once about what needs to happen to heretics. He eventually blocked me because I want to freely exercise my religion. If you haven’t already seen I am a Mormon and my…

  • No Religion without Consent

    I was chatting with my foster sister. She missed church today but said that she usually makes her girls go to church and will until they are old enough to decide for themselves. That’s when I told her “No Religion without Consent.” I was forced to go to church as a child and largely I…

  • Cupboard Latch

    I had a dream that I was in our old house. When we lived there it was falling apart. In the dream a cupboard latch had fallen off. Most of the dream I was collecting scraps of garbage that was laying around the house and I was putting it in a pile in front of…

  • Opiate of the Masses

    More than a hundred years ago Karl Marx famously said that “Religion is the opiate of the masses.” The world has moved on and people at least here in the United States can choose their religion or no religion at all. And yet we are still being sedated as a country and as a society.…
