my journal: various subjects, opinionating, CW at times
The title explains itself.
If you're interested in the ramblings of a middle-aged man with chronic conditions who, at times, sees things a little too clearly for his own good, then read on.
Sometimes I get political, but it won't be all the time.
I don't mind comments in general but if you're going to differ with what I write, that's fine--as long as you can explain your position clearly & reasonably. Rants, shouting & general incoherence will be ignored or flagged, depending on the situation. Try to remember that not everyone else in this world holds your beliefs.
Every so often I may post art or snapshots of projects I'm working on.
If you're still interested after reading all the above, great. (I do wonder at how much time you have on your hands, though)
When it comes to the Near East these days, my only question is: will Israel live?
Meaning, will it continue to perpetuate itself as a home for us, for my people? Because if anything has been revealed by the 10-7 terror strikes & abductions, it is not only that in other nations on the globe we only live there the sufferance of our neighbors, but that this world will always be that way.
One thing to be happy about: as of a few days ago, the upvote ratio is on my side:
So on my laptop there was a notification that it was due for a system update, to Windows 11...considering the machine is over three years old, it seems like junking it & getting a newer machine is the better option.
Gonna do that next week. Also the trip to the property so I can cut down those hanging vines & brambles...maybe log a bit, if time & my body permit it. I'll be back when I'm back, folks.
0948 - It's 6°C outside. That's about 43° Fahr. Jesus on toast!... No, I Ain't goin' anywhere. Not today.
Also, some of the GIFs on the menu here are fantastic...
@slowdecline48 43 sounds almost balmy. Although in your part of the world that would be cold. I've got 16 with a wind chill so it feels 3. It doesn't matter how many freaking layers a person wears. Cold is cold. I hate winter 😬
