Two videos about my abuse, about my current sleep issues, and about me trying to help a fellow survivor

Hi everyone.  I spent the late morning  / early afternoon making a couple videos.  I was talking about what was keeping me busy and occupied the last couple of weeks.  But these videos touch on my hurts, my pain, not news.  One is shorter because when Ron came to the door, I meant to hit the pause button but hit the stop recording one.   I am using new equipment, so if there is any sound or video issues, please let me know.  Hugs.  Scottie

I talk about my own childhood abuse and helping a friend with his own abuse issues first part.

Me speaking about my abuse and trying to help a friend who was abused also. I also explain my time management issues.

As to the Jackfruit recipes:

There are many on Food Network’s site, and I’m just certain I’ve seen someone create a pseudo-seafood dish with it, so it should be here: https://www.foodnetwork.com/search/jackfruit-recipes- , but it’s not. There is no jackfruit seafood recipe, and but one recipe for vegan seafood, Vegan Sushi. I almost got lost on the site, though. I love that channel except on Fridays and Saturdays! 🌞

Meanwhile, the bad news; here’s the allergen info for jackfruit. It’s comprehensive, so you’ll be able to know if you should have it or not, after you read the beginning of it, and there’s more info from there. https://www.annallergy.org/article/S1081-1206(18)31144-X/abstract (For instance, latex gives me an open rash, so I need to avoid jackfruit, I’m gonna say.)

This was gonna be a really pretty post, too! Ah, well. Enjoy some forest instead.

Open Culture: Mark Twain, Helen Keller, and friendship

This is a short read, with lots of material, also links to more if someone is interested. As an admirer of both people, I think this story is cool.
