Suddenly I've drifted into a crazy zone. I have nothing but time on my hands, and I live around the clock, only sleeping when I'm sleepy, only eating when I'm hungry, suspended in limbo. My Samsung smart phone is my ever present companion and it's like there's a connection between my fingers and its keyboard and I have a compulsion to just write long dissertations or crazy vignettes, my words and thoughts feeding on each other like i'm overtaken by a rogue AI entity that compels me to write about things I didn't know I knew, - like my subconcious mind is on overdrive. Like now. Fortunately, I'm not immobile nor in dire health. But I do tire easily, and like to curl up on my recliner, where i still set aside time to do patternless crossword puzzles that seem to work themselves and play Bridge on line with computerized robots - who seem to becoming more human by the day... Family relationships are normal, but there's this other world that I drift in and out of and when I sleep I have vivid dreams about all those who have gone ahead. In a recent one it seemed like my husband had hooked up with an old girlfriend. Why do I find this funny??? Don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining, not lonely nor depressed, just curious about this weird state I'm caught up in. I still sometimes sneak out at night and look up at the stars... Now i'm about to gear up for my daily walk up and down the driveway. Stay tuned, - or tune out if you have better things to do than read the ramblings of a crazy ol lady. Hoping some winning POWERBALLnumbers will pop into my head. Nothing like a billion dollars to calm your impulses.

I'm so sorry this is happening in your family. I can't imagine what MAGA has to offer anyone, and especially your son. We come from a much stronger foundation than anything MAGA & Christian Nationalists ( Evangelicals) have to offer. They are literally capitalist on steroids - that have nothing to offer anyone, including themselves, but an unhealthy dose of self-destructive hate. I hope the rift between you and your son heals quickly. 😆😆😆

Yep. Charlie Kirk said “I think it’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational.” Kirk lived and died by his very own words. POTUS OJ has d8mn near hailed him a MAGA hero. Flags lowered to half staff. White folks won't be any more outraged about this killing as they are when it comes to mass shootings and conflicts where they kill each other. Thankfully, the shooter wasn't a Black man. This country would be on the brink of a race war. Let's see how long this situation keeps the news cycle busy before they go back to ICE chasing immigrants and the national guard occupying urban cities.😎

Probably both!

HAIR THEN HAIR NOW (What old ladies do when they have too much time on their hands.) 🙄 ************* No National Guard troops have shown up in Chicago yet. Latest news reports a confrontation between 2 women in a black neighborhood ends with one shooting the other in the face, killing her. Three-year-old playing with gun, accidently shoots and kills himself. And Life goes on... Or does it??

IMO, you have reached the zenith of life. We should all be so fortunate to get there. Relative good health is a bonus in the zenith of life. There is no shortage of posts that we express how much we enjoy your input here. I certainly look forward to and get a kick out of your ramblings. Keep posting as long as time allows..🤗😎

Different facets for different faces

That's so true. She always manages to portray me so much nicer than I am .🥴

You are a very kind and sweet person @Mel Hopkins with the ability to find the beauty in everyone. Thank YOU!

This is why comprehension is so important. Mel is learning more about herself talking to (notice I didn't say with), hence it isn't a waste of her time.

love is all I bring cause that is all I have.....love

Mel Now here I was thinking this thread was dedicated to me personally, only to open it up and see a whole pack of OTHER names tagged in the OP...lol. Always a pleasure when you drop by and kick it with the fam, young lady. I'd come here to fight with @Pioneer1 - every time I do, I learn so much about myself, Maybe you learn more about yourself, but clearly you aren't learning much about ME or you wouldn't waste so much time arguing with me...lol. But hey.....lol....whatever it takes to get your attention.

You can't make this stuff up! Charlie Kirk's shooter is in custody. And atho the FBI and its creepy director, Kash Patel, who looks like an "Addams Family" character, are taking credit for his capture, the guy's family actually turned him in. Much to the chagrin of the Trump crowd the killer,Tyler Robinson, turns out to be a 22- year-old from a local Utah Mormon family of staunch Republicans. His motivation for the killing reportedly has to do with his fear that Kirk had become too much of a hate-filled racist which was detrimental to Robinson's ideology - whatever that is. As yet, nobody seems able to pinpoint what his politics are but ii has been discerned that he was connected with online activists, which some described as being fascistic. ?? Go figure. A lot of questions remain unanswered, obviously. I have no rational response to a any of this. I can't explain my gut-wrenching revulsion for Trump and his Project 2025 MAGAs because not everything they promote is bad. But I still have this intense dislike for right-wing Conservatives, especially black ones, and most particularly the hypocritical Evangelicals who represent the militant Right "Christians", a group who have captivated one of my sons, causing a serious rift between us. From reading some of Kirk's direct quotes, I cannot honestly say I condemn his killer. Kirk's "chickens came home to roost". Poetic Justice.
