Well today was fun I went to school with my daughter to chaperone a school field trip. We went to Dow Gardens to see the Dinosaurs exhibit. there were like 11 different life sized animatronic dinosaurs around the garden areas. Kids got little passport books to check off if they seen all of them and got to go to gift shop for a little prize if they did.
5th grade is almost done and this will likely be the last field trip I get to do with her :(
Next week I will volunteer to help at their field day and a few days later school is out for this year.

political rant... you been warned.

The world is so backward.
If Obama had made his personal lawyer head of the DOJ and then that lawyer turned around and made it so Obama, his companies or kids companies could never have IRS audits, or investigations ,or look into tax issues again. I am CERTAIN republicans would have been screaming to the high heavens about corruption. (I mean look they went nuts over him wearing a tan fucking suit once). Drumpf has made several BILLION dollars since taking office this second time with all the crypto schemes, meme coins, and BS he started days before he took office. (hint all sorts of foreign countries, people in them can invest to get favor with the president without anyone knowing). His sons are getting government contracts from daddy in drone companies they just became involved with. Don Jr is on the board of Kalshi and Polymarket..Yes, Kalshi and Polymarket are direct competitors. Both are major prediction markets where users can place wagers on the outcomes of real-world events, such as politics, pop culture, economics, and sports. (I wonder who was behind all the mysterious accounts that opened and placed wagers on Drumpf attacking Iran, or when a cease fire would happen, its almost like there is someone with INSIDER KNOWLEDGE placing bets to get rich). But tell me again how Hunter who is a lawyer being on the board of a natural gas company was a problem? Drumpf said he didnt know anything about the business just got the job because of his name..He's a lawyer, they wanted help selling in the US market, pretty sure lawyers can do that...nobody questions Jared starting a company with no experience and getting 2 BILLION from Saudi Prince even when his own advisors said it was a bad investment..He didnt know about investment, his family were slum lords. That company has yet to return ANY profit to investors yet.

People have had their food cut, their healthcare taken away, children cancer research defunded, meals on wheels cut, Hospitals in rural areas are closing due to medicaid cuts, social security cuts making it harder for people to get service with issues. free school meals for kids taken away....but what ARE people getting?? a fucking ballroom they will never be invited too, a fucking arch de drumpf monument, Drumpfs name on money, Drumpf name on federal buildings, passports, stupid ass gold cards, were getting WARS, higher gas prices, higher utilities costs, higher med costs, higher insurance premiums,higher housing costs, higher inflatiion (higher than wage growth this last month reports) a bunch of stuff NOBODY asked for, all to profit/benefit one man and his ego.
fucking insanity

The cost of living, and the cost of dying ... all up

I'm not feeling too patriotic anymore myself. There's way too much corruption in our government of late and now they got this redistricting bullshit going on as a stalling tactic because certain parties are not in favor at the moment. Whatever judge passed it into law that lobbyists and corporations get to fund politicians should be strung up by their private parts on hooks until they bleed out a slow death. Yes indeed this shit of politicians using their knowledge and power for insider trading is bullshit yet others go to jail for it. I know many are being herded and manipulated now by AI agents used by our government. The shits really going to get bad if the draft goes into effect to put boots on the ground for a war in Iran.

DrHyde...yep cost of living is way up..and the cost of dying is also way up..funerals are fucking expensive.

OccultRanger yes there is crazy blatant in your face corruption going on. The richest man in the word spent like 280Million to get PedoPotus elected, then he got let in to steal every Americans data while gutting crap he and his little kid hackers didnt like. The man who has likely single handedly got more government money than any actual American..Musk ILLEGALLY started his business in US on a visa for school only..he is no genius, he just a rich kid who has helped fund and take over OTHERS work..He didnt create Tesla, or Paypal, He isn't the guy building rockets, he the ketamine using rich guy runs his mouth.

got PedoPotus giving himself , his kids and their companies from taxes, investigations, he is profiting while in office and on things they are doing while in office. and people crazy trying to justify it.

I wouldn't go that far with Musk and the Commander-In-Chief. I think Musk is a very talented engineer and entrepreneur though I don't think his interests align with many people who are poor and disabled largely because of an imperfect system that creates the problems from abuse and neglect in the first place. I did not vote for the President and don't agree with many of his decisions but I know I don't have all the information government officials have that dictates the decisions they make. I am glad we can as Americans speak our mind without censorship...within reason where others can't.

Musk is corrupt. Gov money has propped his companies from the beginning..He didnt create Tesla he was just a rich kid who bought his way in and took over the other two guys idea..He didnt create Paypal, just another thing he bought into and sold..He came from family who had money. He grew up in Apartheid South Africa His family moved there originally as nazi sympathizers...After he spent millions getting Drumpf elected he was given access to the whole government, a non elected immigrant was let in to the US most sensitive info, he got everyones Social security data. he gut aid, they cut cancer research, meals on wheels , he calls social security a ponzi scheme. They gutted air traffic when they needed more, and then Musk able to see other companies contracts cut them out and put himself in..

Drumpf with his crypto schemes started his meme coin crap 3 days before taking office..His son Don is on the boards of the top 2 prediction markets since daddy took office, these companies bet on things like when Drumpf would attack Iran, when they would stop and other political things.. an mysterious anon accts created and bet hours before Drumpf attacked. Crypto being used so they cant be tracked ,as in Drumpf liberty fund where foreigners are giving him millions for favors. Don and Eric both got into drone companies since daddy took office and got contracts..Drumpf just in the last day or two got his DOJ to make him not have an audits, investigations, stuff with taxes onhim his kids or companies..
He is doing exact opposite of everything he promised people who voted for him. and they will still make every excuse to blame everything he does wrong on Biden, or Obama, or Hillary...its crazy

I think it really depends on the quality of your subsequent afterlife as some get really hung up on what their life is like now and don't consider some things change like the seasons in nature.

yeah..I was just making a joke out of the quote. but yeah most people live in the here and now..If your life is going bad, sure it can change, maybe for the better, maybe for the worse too. cant put hopes on if your afterlife or next life is gonna be better, if we even remember our later lives.

Idk if it just me and my messed up thought process or if it's the same with all parents. My daughter is 11, growing to fast for me. I feel like a bit of my life is disappearing and becoming more useless each day.Since she was born my life has revolved around her, even when she didnt live with me and lived hours away. I would not make plans to go anywhere and would not leave to do anything if it meant I would not be around at my normal time to video call her everyday. She wasn't even old enough to have a convo and I was calling her on video each day.
I got moved to the town her and her mom went to in 2020 right as the pandemic started and schools closed, she was just in head start. I homeschooled her for kindergarden through virtual stuff with one of the area schools. She went back to regular school in 1st grade. Now she's in 5th grade and for these years I'm the parent who dealt with school stuff, talked to teachers, went on field trips, went to the school things..Now mom is wanting to change her schools in fall and that also cuts my time with my daughter each week. It gives me a lot of anxiety cuz now my daughter will be spending more time with the step dad she fights with all the time than me, she loses the ability to play with all her friends she has through school now and where she lives with her mom she has nowhere to go to play with friends outside the trailer park they are in which is in the middle off corn fields all around..and she isn't even barely allowed to go outside even to the park a few trailers down when her step dad is the one there watching her.. If something happens to her in school I'm here to go get her or bring something if needed. out there they would both be at work. She will have to be alone for a couple hours after school til someone is there. She will need to learn to carry a key and not lose it to be able to get in, which she has never had yet, because she barely allowed to go anywhere as said above....
just very stressful and sucks losing time with my daughter..normally she stays with me 3 nights but I see her at least a little mon- fri..now itll be friday evening6/7pm and she will end up going home sunday afternoon...smh

Last week I took my 11yr old daughter to see the movie "Michael" because she really likes his music and videos.

just kinda come across this bit of trivia now on youtube and looked it up.

In 1984, all nine Jackson siblings charted on the Billboard charts, a unique year for the family. The charting members included The Jacksons (Michael, Jermaine, Jackie, Tito, Marlon, and Randy) with the Victory album, along with solo hits from Janet Jackson ("Don't Stand Another Chance"), La Toya Jackson ("Heart Don't Lie"), and Rebbie Jackson ("Centipede")

I personally thought it was good Jaafar did a great job playing his uncle. There is gonna be a second part which will likely be the one that gets everybody mad with the allegations and stuff. This first movie basically from like 66 to 88 I think were the dates it showed..from Jackson 5 to Bad tour.

man the weather just doesnt want to cooperate with mother nature. T-storms last night, today is a high of 49 (average for this day is 66), we still been having frost warnings at night.
I'm sitting here playing around making more Bats Says cartoons, and printing them and putting them in a binder, something that is a bit fun, takes my mind off the craziness going on in the world around me, and the crappy luck too.

I miss my ipad and procreate, i liked used that and doing digital art, but my daughter somehow shattered my screen earlier this year.

troubles just pile up. It seems never ending. My car died back around New Years on the way driving home from picking up my daughter at halfway point to her moms...Driving down the road 55mph and all of a sudden car just cut off. Coasted to a stop tried to restart, lights and everything still working, radio, heat, but car would not start, no crank, no clicking nothing..I am not a mechanic and Im poor so I dont have the money to tow it in to a shop and have them look, plus its an old car high miles and cost 150$ to tow home about 5 miles...smh

Today after mom dropped our daughter off at school and was heading back home she hit a deer. She is ok, she says not emotionally (after hitting an animal understandable) so now her car is likely totalled she said. So now my anxiety is even higher about what happens with our daughter when neither of us has a car to make the drive. She was already planning to switch her to a different school next year which would cut my time with her..Now what..smh...My daughter is all I have..and it already suck haveing my time reduced and no say so in it..now I may lose even more time..I hate my life..

I really hate when my daughter is not here. For the last6 years my life has been solely revolving around her. Since I moved here right when the pandemic was starting. Typically I have my daughter 3 days a week, mom gets 4..I don't really do anything except when I can do it with my daughter. Goto movies ( we recently seen Michael because she loves his music), or go to parks, bike rides. When she is not here I deal with my depression issues more, try to run background noise all the time to distract my thoughts. Being alone and having time to think and dwell on stuff isn't really a good thing for me.
I constantly have videos playing of some sort of information, or music, (also helps drown out the constant buzzing of tinitus). at the same time playing video games, and if my daughter is here she will have the tv going as well..lol
anyway it feels very dark and lonely when she is not around. I have no other family close, No friends here in this area...
such is life...

Another long day...

Times Read: 356


I sit at my laptop most of the day...still been trying to get everything ready and changed from a hack last monday. Have to reset my computer Im told, which I dont really know how to do.
Watch news video all day and get anxiety from them, but don't want to be caught off guard when the next government catastrophe happens either. Lose healthcare, lose food, lose housing, who knows what will be on the chopping block next. Social Security probably. So we can continue blowing up a country over NetanNutjob saying something he has said for at LEAST 32 years. That Iran will have nukes within a couple weeks. 1670ish weeks is a LONG couple weeks..

A bit weirder is a few headlines that the government is supposedly telling Church leaders to talk about aliens? At the same time they are releasing UFO files. (That don't sound odd at all). Then theres the 12 scientists who have either disappeared or died mysteriously the last 2 years...I watched a video last night that had mentioned another video that claimed the New Jersey drones were alien tech and were giving data to someone warning us that something bad was gonna happen..

So hmmm we have a gov pillaging everything, the leader wanting this bunker really bad, drones warning us of something bad, and now ufo info being released and churches being told to talk about aliens. Sounds like to me were about to be scammed even more by some crazy false flag event/disaster and blame it on aliens....and someone actually said that was the plan years ago before he died. Werner Von Braun..
it was already brought up in his first term when the "Space Force" got made

Kinda cool to see Tim Skold back with Manson and both of these guys looking good and fit with Manson at 57 and Skold at 59.

I remember back in the 80 when Tim Skold went by Tim Tim first on Shotgun Messiah's first album, then Tim Skold as he switched to vocals for the next..then he had KMFDM, solo stuff..Hes been around.

So since i been back I have noticed that my rating stamp does not work on both the profile and portfolio of the same profile. I'm pretty sure in the past that was part of the premium perks was I could make my stamp and use it to rate both..Now If i rate one the other gives a broken link. Is this happening to everyone now? Is something messed up on my end?
