Of course, jokes are all in good fun and everything, but seriously.
Like, the whole phenomenon of jailing pregnant people (in biologically female bodies) for miscarriages, but still not jailing any rich men for the Epstein files crap is really... DISTURBING.
In spite of everything...
I'm very proud of our progress.

Rent a white dad; or, rent a white - looking dad, to help you navigate our End Days of Patriarchal Mayhem.
But if they're rich, sometimes they'll donate their time.
It's potentially a new career path for the white - looking Latino boys too.

You know what I remember the dad on this TV show whining about...
"Eight Is Enough" - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eight_Is_Enough
Okay, so back then, apparently he was able to support his gargantuan family on a newspaper columnist's salary, which I have no idea how that could ever happen today, and I have no memory of him wanting to fling himself over a cliff because he couldn't afford to feed all those mouths, but when his birthday rolled around, he was moaning and groaning about he was "half a century old" on his birthday. It was a real source of pain for him to feel like he was getting old, and that's how he put it. Anyways, that's my main memory of that show. I haven't checked it. I haven't gone back to try to find the episode or anything. It was not my favorite show. It was just something that was on our little black and white TV set. After our year of not having a TV. But I'm glad we did get a TV, because we watched "Amadeus" on it.
What does this say?

You don't like it? Go back in time and talk to the blonde babysitters.
God works in mysterious ways!
The blonde teenage not-a-mom babysitter was awesome. The blonde married land-owning mom babysitter was unwell and in denial about how racist she was acting in front of little kids. She was either in denial, or else she didn't care.

I think adoption could start to look more appealing when parents get less shallow, sexist, and racist.
Or maybe I just need to pick different kinds of people to look at and know about. Smarter ones, who don't have to be so shallow in order to fit in. Being shallow isn't that smart or kind; it's just a fierce Patriarchal survival strategy / coping mechanism.
Harsh words here.

Horrors have happened.
How to recover from the sad phenomenon of so many shallow Facebook posts that clearly didn't give a s*** about the existence of someone like you.
It's not so easy to be in this situation.
Anyways, I kind of envy the ones who seem to fit in a lot better with the Patriarchal structures, and at times I kind of feel more kinship with a homeless woman, but I guess I'm luckier than that (not homeless) this time around.

Maybe different kinds of lives have set different kinds of people up to see the world very differently.
Life set me up in a certain way. The traditional nuclear family is not optimal for all families. That's one way it set me up to see some things. Another way it set me up is to see the discrimination that was occuring with certain kinds of people, towards some children more than others. I don't see how it benefits the health of myself or society to ignore the multitude of messages I have gotten about how painfully this is affecting humanity, because these forms of discrimination should not feel okay. And as for the very childish people who are determined to be in denial about that, I'm really not into dealing with their nonsense right now. Really, at a time when people are getting kidnapped and locked away in detention centers and a child is spending her 10th birthday outside of one of them, advocating for her father, because some adults seemingly can't do any better than that? Really. I don't know. I'm just constantly surprised. I am somewhat astonished that I'm still surprised. Why am I surprised anymore? At this point, I should stop being surprised. Why do I keep being surprised?
Maybe it's time to delve into mystical, nature healing kinds of things!

Actually, an intuitive told me that if exercise feels punishing, it's just going to make it harder.
So from an allopathic doctor's perspective, perhaps that's a cortisol thing.

Today, after putting a book down for at least a week and then coming back to print media...this was at the top of the page:

Hercule sighs. ' Yes. But I was one of many. He had us all sleep together in an old henhouse, which he liked to visit with huntsman. He tried to breed us, to produce a race of tiny people. He had us mate for his sport.'
'Is that why you left him?'"
And then the character goes on to describe his many physical aches and pains.

Can you tell if some people are interested in having a conversation...
Even if the conversation might not necessarily reflect their worldview right back at them?
Can you tell if they are more interested in controlling the narrative and protecting themselves?
Can you tell if some people are open to being more curious and learning about new things?
Some people are beginning to have a new point of view about certain topics.
Or maybe some points of view are starting to get heard more now.

I took this picture of a streak in the sky just before I met a guy who helped make flying machines.
I had "Airplane" by the Indigo Girls in my head.
We were both waiting at a light. He wished me a good day two times, but the light kept not changing. So then he started complaining about traffic patterns and people who want us to take mass transit because mass transit in California is terrible. And he also doesn't like that the government employees get pensions and he never got one. He worked with the metal that made aircraft. He said he won't write letters to the editors of newspapers because big corporations have bought up all of the media. And he also doesn't like something Ronald Reagan did in the '80s with media regulations.
"Now everything is like Pravda," he said.
(I had to ask him what that was.)
He complained that having too many regulations ruins things, and ended by saying that if he wanted to buy a garbage truck and clean up the city, the city wouldn't let him because of all the regulations. Then he walked away and I thanked him for sharing his opinion but he didn't really look back. He was just on his way.
This house reminded me of "Ain't That America" by John Mellencamp.
A lady in the car in the driveway got out and said, "Why take pick chair? Why take pick chair?" I said I thought the butterfly on the front of the house looked pretty.

If these guys come back and suffer as the victims of their very own bad policies...
That ain't my fault.
God, I can't tell if I'd be more like Anne Frank or a soldier, and now I have to go for a walk.
