Just so you know posting and replying to comments will be slow this morning. I have a doctor’s appointment, seeing my new pulmonologist this morning. Trying to figure out why I struggle with shortness of breath a lot of the time. It may take a while. Hugs.

Let’s talk about the New Hampshire results….
It did not work, but was kind of relaxing
Hello all. So Sunday I decided to dump my video computer, clean out some old stuff, clean it up, reorganize it, and tweak the setting. The reason was I had a Microsoft security update that kept faulting out on installation. I did a quick search on it, did not see anything about it online, and Ron kept pushing me to do stuff to distract me. I had suffered from the resurfacing of some abuse memories, I was feeling sick because on Thursday I had steroid injections into my spine, Friday I got allergy shots, and then this weekend I was to take my testosterone injection and that really hurts. Then to top it off, the new roof has leaked and water leaked down into the ceiling and now we had mold growing in the bedroom.
I decided to do a full deep clean. I could have just reset windows and left the drive alone. But I wanted a good clean up. So I had the computer wipe the drives, remove everything on them, which means I had to rebuild the directories, switching things from the C drive to the D drive that has twice the room for data, photos, videos, movies, TV, and any other storage needs than the C drive which I save for program files. That took most of one day. Then Monday I was really feeling badly, and noticed I still had the same issue. This time I did a deep dive search in the error codes and self repair. It involved the size of the rescue environment section on the hard drive. I was seeing how large I would have to make it to fix the issue when I saw that a lot of people who tried this self repair did not get the issue fixed and had to end up reinstalling windows and or repartitioning their hard drives again. While I have good software for this and have done it many times, I was not wanting to spend the time because I was not feeling well. Still am not. So I did what I should have done in the very first place. I started reading the Microsoft Windows support community posts, and more important, the replies from Microsoft staff. Turns out on Jan 10th they released a statement acknowledging the problem, the failure of the update to install on a lot of computers and they were working on a fix for the next batch of Windows updates. Everything I had done until then and the next day and half of putting all my programs back on and their settings correct, was not needed. Grrr. All because I did not want to spend a half a day wading through all the community support stuff I ended up doing anyway. Well I was distracted from the other issues. Hugs. Scottie
DESANTIS DROPS OUT
Side note, dropped, cleaned and reinstalling video computer. Still listening to YouTube on the main blogging one. Going to be busy and as Ron said, well distracted as he wants me to be right now. For me, there is no better distraction than working on computers. I do love it, tweaking the settings, trying to find the best performance. Hugs. Scottie
Great Biden Ad
Let’s talk about Biden, banking, and overdrafts….
I hate hearing someone say both parties are the same. Tell me a republican that would try to stop wealthy banks from raking in billions in profits from the poor people? Those people don’t think both parties are the same, they simply don’t have a good reason to support theirs, so they have to claim the other side is the same thing. It also is why the republicans are so desperate to impeach Joe Biden. Can’t let tRump a republican be the only one, we have to falsely claim democrats are just as bad. Not that tRump was good or correct, but that Biden is as bad! Hugs. Scottie
Let’s talk about Trump probably paying more….
Let’s talk about Trump, Nikki, and Nancy….
What in the fuck is going on
How far the down in the gang thug chaos are the republicans wanting to go? Attacking the defenseless simply because they already have nothing and nowhere to go. What happened to bettering society, making things better for everyone? These people only want to make it great for them, the rest are for exploitation and amusement. This country, the US, had a brief resurgence of enlightenment and now in the last 8 years, especially the last 3, the right wants to tear it all down, destroy anything good or enlightened in the country. They mock decency and act like they are superior for being cruel. I am at a loss these days what is driving these people. I have seen them before, in my childhood. I thought they were going extinct, yet here they are within inches of full power over everything. Hugs. Scottie
The bill would at the same time enhance penalties for drug use (specifically fentanyl, as it is their go-to talking point at the moment), and making it a felony to run away from the police…
Just anything that is observed among those whose living situation is so desperate, and basically saying it is illegal for anyone from a minority community to be fed up with this shit..
–
Also, considering the rate of LGBT+ homelessness compared to the general population. 5% of the youth population in general, yet accounting for 25% of homeless youth. I consider the Bill to be specifically targeted at LGBT+ people.
Considering the above. Some bigoted parents could disown their kid, kill them, and claim it was homeless trespass?
Some videos / new broadcasts on kids being bullied and how it is much worse now that maga wants to remove protections.
If the maga right wing have their way, any and all protections from students bullied because of being different or LGBTQIA. New laws in red states like Florida remove not only the anti-bulling campaigns but also prevent teachers from stepping to defend the LGBTQIA attacked kid because that would be seen as promoting sexual orientation or gender identification. All positive posters, safe space stickers, and rainbow acceptance stuff removed. No more books or movies saying it is OK to be gay or different. These laws take us back to a time when children were terrified to be outed as not straight or cis, and leave schools with no legal way to help these kids or prevent their abuse. This is what the moms of TikTok and mom’s of liberty want. This is what the maga Christian Republican Party want, to drive the kids who are different back into hiding who they are, push them violently back into the closet so that they will feel shame and fear over who they are. Are we as a nation going to turn our backs on decades of work to promote tolerance and acceptance of those who are different? Are we going to again return to a time when kids were terrified to learn or even be in school? Will we let the maga thug mentality win as the way people in the US should act or be? Hugs. Scottie
These videos took me over a week to watch and then place here. While some are out of date, I chose them instead of newer ones because this is the school world the maga Christians are fighting to return to. Kids being different are singled out and collectively punished. While watching these the ever helpful YouTube algorithm, or the push stay on our site what these next suggestion lists filled up with abuse videos. So be careful if that bothers you as much as I, I finally took to watching them off-line. Hugs. Scottie
