All Things Odd And Silly

 My college best friend and roommate.   Michelle 1966-2022 I just heard her in my head saying, “Shut up!”

 I was just watching a little news clip of Karoline Leavitt and the thought occurred to me that she not only is totally hydrated with Trump-Aid, but I think she also had the spiked version.   My amazing grandpappy.  Well, that thought came out of left field.  I was just thinking that Karoline Leavitt would make an amazing granddaughter to Mr Trump and that “my amazing grandpappy!” could be her term of endearment for him.  

 It’s amazing how the brain (or mine anyway) likes to occasionally conjure up images of things from the past.  Today it was these hair ties.  I never know what will float into my minds eye. 

 The idea of President Trump having a conscience that can be appealed to and reached is amazing.  I don’t know if it’s true, but it would be amazing.  Despite being a self-serving moron most of the time, he has this way of appearing to be human at times.  Maybe he just needs a Cindy-Lou Who to grow his heart.  Wouldn’t that be amazing?  Maybe this is wishful thinking, but it is a nice thought anyway.  Maybe he needs to see that little toddler girl whose arms and back were all burned who was crying in fear and pain as her injuries were being cared for.  The little girl who was being cared for in a hospital that also could be bombed at any time if Israel chose to do so.  It would be amazing if Mr. Trump did have a heart, and if he was willing to pay attention to things that might cause his heart to inform his thinking.  One can only hope.

 This is my thought tonight about ideas.  We can think of and write down 100 million interesting ideas and things we might like to do and give our attention to, but we can’t remember and get back to them all and we need to be okay with focusing on new ideas that come to us in our present experience. What matters most is our engagement with and the choices that we make in the present.  This is where our time and attention is best spent. 

 I just asked myself a question.  Why do I like and feel the need to be a very private person?  I guess that is a personal philosophical question to ponder.  I honestly don’t know.  Why are any of us who we are?  Are there answers to these questions?

 I was falling asleep and who should appear but Pink Gumdrop Man the ornament.  He looks tasty.  It’s a good thing that he was made of plastic. 😋

I have been procrastinating cleaning out dumb shit as if it is some big deal when it really shouldn’t be.  I don’t know what my problem is.  I should be able to just get rid of old information and so forth that I don’t need anymore and not feel like it is important stuff that I might still need.  If I don’t think that old information and papers and stuff are important anymore, then they probably aren’t.  It should be easy to figure out what stuff is actually important and if I do throw away something that might be useful at a later time,  I’m sure I will be able to survive just fine without it.  I’m also getting ready to throw out a lot of old written stuff.  That will save me from even having to read it to decide whether or not it is important and I live in the present anyway.  There will always be new stuff to write about if I so desire.  Life changes all the time, so I guess the most important thing is information that matters in the prese...

 Half information.  Okay this is two words. 

 It really is quite crazy that artificial intelligence now exists that we can communicate with as though it had a mind equivalent to and very indistinguishable from our own.  How is such a thing even possible?  Well, that’s more than a single word but still nice and short. 

 Accomplice.   That is the word that came to my mind tonight.  I guess I feel like thinking and writing in single words tonight.    I guess my brain is a little tired. 

 Maybe human beings have a tendency to fall victim to being a bit loco.  Maybe this is just human nature.  I don’t know what happened to Elon Musk.  Years ago, I watched part of an interview that Joe Rogan did with Elon Musk after my son sent me a link.  He accidentally sent me the wrong link because that interview wasn’t the one that had the discussion between Joe Rogan and Elon Musk that he meant to share with me.  Anyway, when I watched the interview that he did send to me, Elon Musk seemed to be a very down to earth intelligent and decent person.  At one point Joe Rogan asked him a question and I don’t specifically remember the question, but it was something about what he believed was most needed by or what would be of the most benefit to humanity.  His answer was love.  When I think back to that interview, I wonder what the hell happened to him???  I never in a million years would have imagined that he would go down the path that he...

 I believe I just had an insight from my higher self. “My higher self loves, values and sees me in a more positive light than I do.”  Maybe this is what humanity needs from one another.  An affirmation of this truth.  An affirmation for all of humanity.  To feel and share this with others is an amazing gift. And another thought is that like the stock market, humanity is in a bit of a dip right now, but it will in due time move forward on the right path once again.  Humanity’s spring will arrive and bring its color and warmth.  My higher self just gave me that idea.  But then my higher self places the back of her hand against her forehead and says, “But alas, you don’t believe in my wisdom!”   And I say, “But I want to always have access to your wisdom.  I want to know and believe in your wisdom.” And my higher self says.  “Then just be a nut job and be proud of it because perhaps this is the truth of who you are.”  I guess my h...

 AI really likes Dat Boi for some reason.  Maybe because Dat Boi represents the enigma of the human mind.  How and why do human beings come up with such crazy notions and ascribe meaning to them.  I still don’t comprehend the meaning of Dat Boi.  I thought this AI image was interesting though.  The idea of unicycling on water is intriguing and the image also reminds me that one of my grandmothers really liked cat tails and used to want to stop and pick some when vacationing on Cape Cod.  I just noticed that Dat Boi in this image has a tail evidently.
