Here we are, another day passed, another day spoon fed world views from the media that is intended to make us feel foolish, or selfish, or helpless, or indebted, or trapped in some other bondage. Jesus gives us liberty to follow His will and proclaim His gospel and do His work. Though we hear the indoctrination day and after day, over and over again, until it somehow sounds right and proper in the world, we need to continually remain in the Word to drown out the world views, and fill our heads and hearts with what the Lord declares for us. Anything less, and we are at the mercy of the world and those who would imprison our thoughts and ideals.

I am super frustrated.with this steaming pile of turd software that MS calls windows 10. These auto updates always hit at the wrong time, when one is actually tring to do work, and it always breaks something. I am trying to add a pc to a domain. An update that takes 30 min to install, refuses to let me do anything until it reboots. I am an hour and a half from home and stuck $#&^%*?@ with this so the customer can get right to work in the morning with little to no interruption. It is now 5:05pm..

From Justin Shaista.

When did the desires/wants/needs of the few DOMINATE the many?

Let’s take peanut allergies.

One kid at our school had an allergy and the entire school had to stop eating peanut butter.

1 kid vs 1000 kids

Cheap and nutritious, and universally loved by children, tons of poor families were screwed. What else could they feed their kids?

Enter, a brand new line of fake nut butters that were expensive and kids hated. (Ours wouldn’t eat them at all). Parents pulling out their hair.

REPEATED announcements, notes, reminders, disciplining 1000 kids, 2000 adults, for 1 nut allergy.

If your kid is THAT allergic, he shouldn’t fucking ever leave the house. Because guess what?

The subway, buses, trains, restaurants, airplanes, the rest of society isn’t nut free.

IT’S FUCKING BULLYING.

Meanwhile 1 boy puts on a dress and 500 girls can’t pee.

When did this happen? When did the need of one person completely over take every one else’s needs?

As I was telling my nephew about the importance of campfire safety, I was reminded of my neighbor/co-worker's home that had a grassfire a couple of years ago. They are about 6 miles away! I think they left a vehicle idling over some tall grass.

I met a woman today with terminal cancer, two children, and a husband who left because he couldn't cope. She wants nothing from anyone, just happy to have each day she has left. She was the most positive person I've met in recent memory and I am shook. Puts things in perspective.

Went to check out PeerTube, looks like the site is down...

My 2 cents.

I think, that all in all the pandemic actually did me a favour, my main focus always was work and the bank statement, even after I went into a fully blown burnout I did not learn, bought into a company and worked till late at night, not caring for much else. Happiness directly related to income.
Now I am happy when talking to may family and hearing everyone is ok. Ignored my personal health for way too long. Guess I'll have to think a couple of things trough and change them....

@daniel On a similar note, anyone interested in helping plan the home computer system? I'm willing to compensate for valuable advice and input. I know what I need it to do and have some ideas as to how to get there, but I doubt it will be elegant. Security, weather monitoring, entertainment, environmental management, thin client outlets everywhere...like Stargate Atlantis in a home.
