I’m currently on a tablet and making this since I don’t want the bad vibe of the unintended final entry on here https://www.7cups.com/forum/journal/General_2520/Musicings_308743/?post=3312708 to be something I see again.

No shame, no one is judging the literary quality of the last journal etc,etc.

Thinking ‘going forward’ later today or not, I’m meaning to buy (compression ?, exercise tights ?, male yoga pants ?) which is something I don’t look forward to since it’d not only mean the friggin tedium of venturing to some achingly bougie mall but look for ‘bottoms’ as in pants or shorts never seems to be fun for someone my size, much less for a niche function and role..

-_- Yet the membership is only for a month and the tedium of an Amazon product request and delivery comes with it’s own diciness.

To not cast value judgement on this. My habit of criticizing problem solving methods (including the ones which arrive at competent solutions).

I think that an understated 'approach' to an attitude of prejudice towards a certain community is that of a person whose baseline for liking ppl is '0*' and the only vertical direction it might go on occasion is in the negative range (-2,-1,-0.5 etc).

It's important to understand that the baseline of 0 isn't apathy or indifference.. it's more like a frail and delicate to upkeep asociality which is easily agitated,upset or disappointed. It's that kind of misanthropy, a misanthropy of 'I prefer to keep to myself, I have many things of my own I can do and you're going to tick me off for accusing me of being 'unproductive' nethertheless even though you're just as d--n well flawed despite what that callously introspective attitude of yours puts effort into not checking and self-reflecting'.

Saying that maybe it going 'up' would akin to a 'hyper-fondness' or love for a community..might only be a partially accurate take.

Interesting to take a look and see how certain 'in-between' designs make things make more sense or would've been better suited for finalized options.

Consider how a fair amount of Hispanic ppl grew up on and had Western genre media resonate with them. Consider it how strange it was for me whence several years ago, both my parents embraced watching H--l on wheels where rapper and actor Lonnie Rashid Lynn ('Common') was a show lead.

I didn't really watch it but what I did see made it seem that the show was actually okay and I suppose what intrigue it brought to my parents was how it was a Western which heavily brought in the presence of minorities (not only Natives but black ppl aside from 'Common', Latter-day saints and their presence at that historical point of westward railway construction expansion and the Chinese ppl who definitely had a role in that).

What my sister said about 'family drama' happening if my grandfather truly passes

(a) one factor for not being keen to spend much time in El Salvador beyond mourning processes, esp. as how it'll manifest 'on that front' in contrast to the ripple effects it might bring to my local Canadian side family and

(b) the representation of that (particularly if you edit out the show title) as per this poster of season 1 of 'The 100' which I used to watch w/my mom

Doing this, typing this stuff as needless or preemptive as it might ultimately pan out, to relevancy within this year at least, isn't evoking the impact of my grandfather's mortality more...d--n cognitive distortions in a perpetually discouraging world, discouraging from taking quality undertaking even for the most mundanely important actions can do that to you.

I can say that I've had a satisfyingly meaningful relationship with my grandfather even if I've felt less involved from him after age ~19. I can see myself being as fairly unmoved by his passing particularly as I was by my paternal grandfather's wherein I just felt conflicted with the ambiguity and feeling of feeling nonplussed. There's a critical factor in how my maternal grandfather has had a much more involved and consistent presence in contrast to what rare interaction I ever had with visiting my paternal side grandparents though..so, there might really be an provocation of me grieving in a way I didn't even expect--stuff like that can d--n well happen, I'm not that naive or stupid to it, to it's possibility.

When it comes to where I'd be expressing it..

phase 1) scramble to arrange for flight into El Salvador. Question of pet care beyond my dad applies but I wonder who else among my local relatives will venture as well ?

phase 2) airport c--p

phase 3) reaching the one city and being told what kind of mourning ceremonies will be done etc

phase 4) being at said events and seeing relatives, trying to keep me and my upset to myself since this is ultimately about someone very important albeit for a brief temporary span..I'm cautious to express much not only to the relatives I doubt I'll see again (tbh travelling to El Salvador doesn't interest me much) but b/c of ensuing ripple effects of drama

phase 5) repeat phase (2) for return purposes

phase 6)I feel something..maybe grieving and making sense of what I experienced might only really spill out once here again on the more familiar territory of where I live..the stuff that I might not've expected might well happen here

phase 7) arrange counsellor appointment of sorts to decompress about and make sense of 'loose strings left hanging'

phase 8) 'welcome to the new age' of ordinary life with one less personally important person around

I won't be able to arrive as I expected. The final changes are indeed incurring.

That seen in 'Only the brave' where Josh Brolin and a few of the female characters are ~'ugly crying' and making ~'ugly crying' sounds-- how I imagining some variation of that upon confirmation.
