I went to clean my house and collapse in an epileptic seizure well taking out the trash. Not a single person came to my Aid. And I did not have my phone or life Aid. I dragged myself an eighth of a mile on my stomach until I got back to the door. I don't think I broke anything.

Yeah, I need a lot of help with my dark humor. I'm just too lighthearted, Tanny. Also so light-brained. I should just float away!
The concerns for control are very genuine as not one human connected to any network is invulnerable in this era. As for this ridiculousity, this is by-design a state controlled system 'out of the box.' Exactly like today's Web which was sold out to capitalists not world citizens.
I'd be very interested to know @timberners_lee's and @mholzschlag's view of the new network proposal for the Internet from China and Huawei, among others, mentioned in this FT article. Are the concerns for control genuine? giftarticle.ft.com/giftartic…

You can by not being afraid. Fear and anxiety over the uncontrollable and inevitable is most harmful to ourselves. That's what I want and need - for you to be okay. I'm not worried about myself, so please don't add that to your concerns. I accepted inevitable mortality long ago.

But I'm done. You want comfort in a time of darkness and are over the age of 30 please kill off those fears, adapt and stop placing your perceptions over those of us who have lived outside of society our entire lives. YOU ARE LUCKY if you have any resources of support or choice.

Maybe we will all rise up to create a better world. I rose up, I spoke up on all of this: Medical health, social victimization, collapse of medical infrastructure, exclusion of public safety to the private profit agenda. I spoke up for others to my own detriment. That's on me.

Use the resources we brought to this world and made for love, at least I sure did, and not for the mass proliferation of human devolution. Adapt. I may have nothing left to offer anyone but this truth: We are terribly alone, there is no comfort, we will all suffer and we all die.

Fear, anxiety and trauma destroy human immunity. Take that into consideration and consider killing your fears. You can't control outcomes so give it a rest, calm the fuck down and learn to adapt. I had to and no one could help me with that as they weren't living it. Now you are.

Maybe. I'm not anxious. Others are. I've lived with social distancing for the majority of life, one of the reasons I've avoided most infections and the one I did get that nearly ended me in 2017 was while I was inpatient. I know this: Fear and anxiety destroy immunity. Kill fear.

WELL? I have not been well, I was supposed to be in the hospital but Medicaid won't pay for it, and I am gasping for breath. You do realize I'm far past terminally ill and living in a state of medical uncharted unknowns. My value as a human is less than zero statistically. So no.

But thank you personally my friend. I'm angry. Hurt. Horrified. Helpless except to be isolated even more. But I'm more worried about the stupid morons in charge who can't get it together because they take no responsibility for failure to unite and lead. Be safe and healthy! xo/m

I'm not okay. Who is? If people are okay right now I truly worry for what that says about the real pandemic of anti-social behaviors emerging out of the crap we call society.

Desperate, disgusted, exhausted and no expectations of relief to come. Self-advocacy is only for those who have a self worthy of an advocate instead of the chronic laughter of liars thieves and ignorant filthy pigs who are stealing hearts and minds while victimizing citizens.

The darker the world the more my inner militant Malcom X wants to overpower my inner civil Martin Luther King Jr. for rage begets rage, always. No one wants truth. We think we're right when we are all in fact wrong, as is all humanity. There is no win to be found in that. None.

Mike you have been a rock for our community and your loss is deeply felt by so many. You have remained an ethical, steady hero in situations of a similar nature that broke me. I mourn with you. I honor the love and loyalty you shared with Kim. We are here. I am here. Unity. Love.

The #NationalGuard in #Arizona to stock groceries. All eviction constables are refusing to enforce evictions. Even #ICE is chilling. I had to laugh: "To mitigate...financial burdens...restaurants...to deliver alcohol along with food." tucsonsentinel.com/local/rep… via @DSmith_Tucson

You always find a way to comfort me, Face. Math. Music. Mentoring. I'm spinning less, or so it seems, so that's something! ;-)
