STORIES WE TELL.

STORIES WE LIVE.

tired. living in the middle of nowhere. long drives to get anywhere. two hours to work. two hours to Toronto. two hours to my Mom’s. two hours to my brother’s. two hours to my friend’s. who chooses to live here? why would someone choose to live here? why do so many people choose to live such stressful, frustrated, and tired lives? why do we work at jobs we hate? why do we give our power away to useless power hungry managers working for the system? working for the man. why do people care so much about Lisa Laflamme getting fired at ctv? she got fired. numbers were probably down. many people getting fired daily for doing absolutely nothing wrong. many don’t even get the opportunity that Laflamme got. do fat unattractive men get those jobs? do fat unattractive women get those jobs? do old people get those jobs? there are very few bald men on tv. I SHOULD FIGHT FOR MORE BALDNESS EQUALITY.

the peasants of our society jump on useless agendas and useless movements that never really improve our society nor improve themselves. they are still peasants. they are still sheep. they are still rule followers and pencil pushers offering up little value and little uniqueness. same old tired shit. over and over and over again.

why are the kardashians still on the air?

who watches this garbage?

who watches the bachelor or bachelorette?

i don’t think men do.

can you watch that crap and still be an avid feminist?

i think these sort of walking contradictions are what get us regular men confused and puzzled.

a serious confusion. a serious wonder.

our society is a mess.

greed is rampant.

trump was running the united states.

trudeau runs canada.

doug ford runs a province.

DUMB.

DUMB.

DUMB.

DUMB DE DUM DE DUM.

our society is filled with average people working average jobs for average pay and leading average lives. lives filled with bills, mortgages, grocery bills, housecleaning chores, mowing lawns, washing cars, and watching shitty tv. it is rare to find anything worthwhile on television these days. the product is more concerned about agendas and less about story and quality.

WE FIGHT FOR THE WRONG THINGS.

LISA LAFLAMME?

REALLY?

more covid cases. more isolations.

rylee now in quarantine for ten days. feel bad for the kids and the elders. such a tough time for everyone. covid depression is sinking in. tired. frustrated. afraid. bored. fears. wonder. fatigue. we all hope it ends soon. life has taken a drastic turn sideways. lots of divisiveness. lots of misinformation. LOTS OF PROBLEMS. lots of sheep. lots of non readers and unintelligent people discounting and discrediting the intelligent ones.

can’t write at the moment as my dog is sprawled on my lap. my right hand is tired. hot. tired. keep focused. keep allowing. keep surrendering. keep growing. keep loving.
