* I'm doing my best with Klaus, migrating functions. It's way less efficient this way and a bunch of other things I normally do on Klaus need to keep on happening, so there are zero promises about me getting any number of things done when I normally do them. Some friends have clubbed together and are planning to send something I can do some of my messaging, etc. on, which mostly effects my private life. (Important for me and my close friends, but no one else).

The power still hasn't drained from Aidan, so we can't tell if reboot would help. A Millennial may look at it next week to see if anything can be done. I don't have a lot of hope. This is infuriating. Aidan is only a couple years old and was in great shape.

There is a good chance of me double posting accidentally for a bit, as I'm not sure which news items were just prepped or posted.

* 1/8/24: So where was most of the news for the first week of January? Basically a lot of stuff was happening out in the world while my body is still reading the beefed up daily physio routine as if it's an injury. Basically, I'd be just up to doing prep and then have to go rest. Or do more physio. Or my arm wouldn't be up to much. I have the links despite me thinking for about fifteen minutes I'd lost them in a computer problem at one point.

Trust me, I have been following the news. I'm going to try to at least get essentials from Gaza and some of the world election stuff out before I close out this aggregate edition. the Trump ball of worms is likely going to have to wait.

I will see how much I can wrangle before the Monday arm torture appointment.

* For the first time since I moved up here in 1998, none of the neighbors set off fireworks. The laws got a lot stricter a few years ago, but the reservation is not that far, so people tend to have them all over town. My suspicion is, the complex has really beefed up surveillance, which i hate, but boomers are in charge, so….

I am glad there were no explosions. It's rough on veterans and animals and people with certain sensory situations, etc.. It didn't effect me much personally until this batch of cats, who are extremely sensitive. (The previous clowder ranged from indifference to curious.). The Imperial couple always find the explosions terrifying, especially as they are often a few feet from their windows.

This year, I failed to notice the turning of the year until 1:09AM, as i was busy with something. I only really drink for weddings and funerals or the equivalent. I am too old and tired for drunken parties, and my local friends are small gathering people. When I had a partner, we favored the large municipal fireworks displays, or small parties, or beach gatherings over large drunken things, but were just as likely to have a quiet romantic evening at home as go out to see explosions.

The cats entirely slept through it. They were crashed out so hard, they missed me padding about around 2ish, sprinkling fresh nip in there very beat up scratch and nap boxes. I literally accidentally sprinkled some on the emperor and he didn't stir.

This was so much nicer than them being terrified and running for the hides and needing hours of reassurance.

I still oppose the surveillance, etc., but I admit, it is pleasing not to have to worrying about the cats.

* There was a cleaner Tuesday, which was a huge help. Friday rescheduled to later Friday. We'll see if they actually come. I had another rough week with pain and exhaustion, but I'm finally starting to see results from the new batch of physio.

* Friday cleaner did come and took down most of the Gothmas decorations, mopped floors, etc.. We still need to stow the Halloween trees, and some miscellaneous things, but everything is much nicer with the dishes done and away and the floors clean. I think scheduling two this week was the right thing. The cats were delighted to see the window bench mostly devoid of Goth tchotchkes.

One of my few remaining relatives sent me shirt money, so I ordered a plain purple and a fancier one that I likely will wear outside of the surgery context. This means I'm up to four shirts. My plan is to mostly not bother with shirts when I don't have to go out until my arm heals up some, so it should be all right. I'm still stressed about the whole logistics of recovery, because I'll be mostly helpless in a bunch of areas and I hate that.

Livia love selected a new Spot at some point in early December and has been living it up. She's also decided that New Millennial is Safe and is relaxed enough to let me rub the tummy in her room when the Millennial is on the sofa. It is a huge show of trust for her to be that relaxed when there are People in her Home. I am endlessly proud of her. Tavy spent a whole hour Thursday night asleep in the crook of my good arm, which he hasn't been calm enough to do for a while.

* Tuesday: I have not enjoyed anything my body has done in the last 24 hours.

The Internet is blowing up with disinformation, much of it Antisemetic and/or Islamophobic. I beg of you, please check sources on things you see, particularly if the claims are extreme or too close to a stereotype, or an image that could be misattributed or AI. A whole lot of people are invested in making things somehow even worse than they already are. Check me. Check everything.

Cuts to the IRS dramatically decreases revenue to the government by letting rich tax cheats get away with not paying their share. Cutting revenues won't "pay for" anything.

This doesn't even get into why refusing to pay for aid to Ukraine is a terrible idea, which it is. There is nothing good about this bill.

* Early voting is already happening in a lot of places. Squirrel and I voted Friday.

Voting early allows you more time to fight disenfranchisement if you live in a voter suppression state where you were removed from the voter rolls without warning. It is often a way to avoid massive voting day lines that Republicans hope will discourage you from voting.

Please vote early if that's an option for you. It is better and safer.

If you can't early vote, please, please, please vote.

And remember, vote the whole ticket. Things like sheriffs and school board make a massive difference in quality of life.

* Thursday a week ago dentist and hygienist were very astonished by my relaxed state during dentistry. I hadn't had time to warn them that sometimes I fall asleep before the dental dam went in ending my ability to explain. Luckily they didn't get scared as had happened before. I wasn't asleep, just meditating as is my usual practice when I'm not exhausted. Apparently even very chill patients don't normally relax at this level. I have no dental trauma or phobias. It's not that I enjoy dentistry, it's just I have no more emotion about it than I do around oil change. It's just maintenance.

No cleaner Friday, which is fine. So many people clocked out slightly late, they snatched 15 minutes here and 15 minutes there, so I am left with six visits at most to cover November and December instead of the surplus Math last summer suggested I should have. I am a bit grumpy as I generally let them off three to six minutes early.

Saturday, Goth Millennial exhausted the Tiny Terror with one of their Gothmas presents. Livia had her third oops in two weeks. I am pretty sure it's stress.

Sunday: Millennial pumpkin carving!

Monday I did a bunch of prep for the big day.

* I lost the first version of this in the crash. The Management chased all the families with kids out and most of the grad students, replacing them mostly with retirees. I hardly even got adults raiding my table this year, and one of them stole a bowl. Sigh. This is why I use cheap Dollar Store bowls. The Millennials got big candy gift bags this year.

I love the pumpkins the Millennials carved so much. I'm going to be so sad when I take them down in a day or two.

A cheerful Gen Z person turned up to Clean Saturday, and we got most of the outside display down. I really liked them. Goth millennial got the things too high to reach Saturday. We are mostly focused on the Tuesday inspection right now.

* My car broke yet again in late October. As I feared it was the hose that keeps the engine cool. Why feared? It's in the middle of all the gear under the hood. Hose and fluid replacements are cheap. an hour and a half of labor to take it all apart then put it back in is incredibly expensive. $280 worth in total. I have paid Squirrel back for the gas for the week and a halfish, I was borrowing his car, thanks to a donor. The repairs ate most of my bill money for the month. Yes, this is the forth repair this year. My car is about 25ish years old. I can't afford to replace it, nor can I do without it, being disabled: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/Gwydion

* Sunday was a trip to the Lake with Millennials. No rich children stole my crutch this time. We had a really good swim, but the current was above average strong and at some point I was like, "Oh shit! There's the swim boouy! We are in the middle of the boat lanes. We swam back. It was fine. They put in an outdoor shower this year, which is a huge help. After we showered we ate finger foods and chatted.

I stopped by the bathrooms on the way to my car and OMG! It was one of those things where there was a perfectly logical explanation from the perspective of the three of us already in the bathroom, but like opening a door into chaos for the other two people involved.

This bathroom is tiny. Three stalls on your left. Across from that a big metal communal urinal. The sink and mirror give an excellent view of the door and also a small bench they jammed in against the door wall. It's almost 6:30PM on a crowded hot weekend. it's a couple hours before sunset, so the park is less crowded than when we arrived 4ish, but people are still arriving and the bathroom is Trashed. The little beach strip is more mud then sand and people have been tracking water and black mud/sand in there for about ten hours and there is tp paper mache all over the ground and the toilets desperately need cleaning.

So I step out of the stall, just as a person is heading to the nasty ass urinal trench thing. Another guy is climbing up on the bench to change, because he understandably doesn't want to be barefoot on that floor and then put on shoes to drive home. Bench guy is soon full on pooh bear over my right shoulder as i wash my hands, which takes a while because the water keeps auto shutting off, so I have to stop and restart every few seconds. Perfectly framed over my left shoulder is the door, which swings open.

It's two gentlemen, one of whom beelines for the urinal. The other freezes in horror and starts yelling, "Wrong bathroom! Wrong bathroom!" I have very long hair. I am wearing a mask because I'm in a small, poorly ventilated place. I have on a black tee and my trunks look like goth shorts. My sandals are of an ubiquitous style worn my any gender in my region in good weather. I'm very androgynous. I think it was my hair causing the initial panic, but his head turned to follow his friend's trajectory to the 2-3 person piss trench and he saw bench guy crouched pantsless behind me like a downhill skier doing the streak, as if he was possibly about to pounce on my back, and his cries of wrong bathroom got a lot more shrill. In my head I'm picturing the Guy in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas who walks in on hippies liking a guy's jacket. His oblivious friend is doing his business, the other guy is about to leave. I turn and head towards the poor panicky guy and am like: It's the right bathroom. I have long hair.

We have accidentally traumatized a guy who was clearly not ready for the PNW weird.

A couple millennials came back for dinner. Once we arrived, I realized just how fucked I was. I'd swum too long and my arms were DONE. Luckily, I'd dropped off New Millennial to get their car and a take 'n bake, so I could just lung and rest up. They ended up staying very late talking. I closed down the apartment for the night and went to bed.

I could have gotten up nineish, but I decided to read Camp Damascus in between pettins and supplemental sleep all day, which turned out to be a good call. I have this thing where I promise the Millennials that if they are ever stranded at one of the further bits of town they can call me and if I physically can, I will come get them. Bus service is even shittier out there and there's a severe lack of shelters to wait in. It was pouring down at a rate that was threatening to flood low lying areas. A Millennial was trapped at the back of beyond with a long drenching slog to the bus. Of course I went, but it turned into a a much longer trip than intended for reasons that were no one's fault. I got them home and reasonably dry though, and I'm not sorry.

It did eat and extra chunk of evening though, and I'm really chewed up from swimming. I am very glad I got the aggregate out Friday, because I'm not up to much posting this evening.

We plan to do lake swimming on Sundays all August, which will effect posting schedule.

* Friday I discovered that I am now dangerously allergic to Cantaloupe. My throat didn't close all the way, so I didn't die, but the swelling in my mouth was scary and bad things happened in my throat. I appear to be also reactive to honeydew and cucumber, though not to that extent. Sigh. More beloved foods lost forever. I spent the weekend trying to recover. There is still a bad patch at the back of my mouth and I'm still tired and generally ick, butt this is nuisance level from a chronic pain perspective.

Monday was disability assessment, which I had completely forgotten. Luckily I had just gotten back from the bathroom as it's super long. Normally I like to be at my desk where I have better access for things like checking my meds, since I have the bottles there for the dailies instead of just presort med trays and emergency PRN bottles.

Tuesday, I spent a stupid amount of time at the Seelie dentist. We have a good mold, and they sealed my tooth, and replaced my temp with a preliminary. It is the same amount of be super careful what and how one eats, but now if I fuck up I don't get a second root canal (not covered), I just get pain and have to go in for a replacement preliminary. I'm going to try not to fuck up, but the stakes being lower is a huge fucking help. They kept remarking on what a good/easy patient I am. I have no anxiety and mostly just meditate unless they need me to do something.

Did I mention Seelie Dentist’s intake form had a section right under legal name for preferred name and pronouns and they were all super polite and seemed really competent. 10/10 would recommend and I’d make them my regular dentist if I weren’t already a patient at poverty clinic, where they also are super good with trans patients.
I got back just in time to see if Head Millennial wanted pick up. (I usually collect them downtown and we do errands on Wednesdays, but he was meant to take the bus as I had no clue how long crown preliminary would take). It was cool in the morning, but melting hot in the late afternoon, and we were dishrags by the time we got back to the air conditioning, so I told them to do bare minimum after their break and took them home.

* Techie Millennial and I hung out Thursday, which is something we haven't done much lately between assorted things going on in both our lives. We had a great time and got a lot of stuff done.

* Friday: We're still having sporadic snow and I'm still trying to take apart the Gothmas trees.

Saturday: I timed errands to be out while Head Millennial was working, as there was no snow. When I got back, I hid in my room until he was gone. He did a short shift, as he can't safely take breaks or drink inside. Squirrel remains negative, but he could literally catch it any night and safety has to come first. I spent an hour trying to get the lights off the Halloween Trees, but they were very tangled. The Millenial sorted it. I just need to stow it all away until next September. I'm going to try running the microwave later off an extension cord. *fingers crossed* My body is being annoying in some rather standard for me ways, but at least I'm getting reasonable sleep.

* Monday, a bunch of the phone tag people caught me. On top of that? *headdesk* It turns out the Management company was trying to trick us into paying for the fire suppression system check. They hadn't sent a work order, which means they get to refuse the invoice, forcing us to pay for it. so I cancelled that. I need to call the management company tomorrow anyway because the city wants in writing why they refuse to fix the wiring.

Bonus, I went to start dinner before lungs so it could bake. When I went to check,the oven had glitched out. I knew the burners were failing as two barely heat anymore. Now it heats up, then waits until I've set the alarm and wandered off to shut itself off. Um, thanks? so we're down to two burners now. Who knows how long before they glitch out too?

Update: It won't turn on for more than a few seconds. It's done. Dinner was about 3/4ths cooked, which wasn't entirely pleasant, but not a food safety issue, me being vegetarian. One more problem to try to sort tomorrow, I guess, but I'm not sanguine.

* Tuesday I was up all day being a grown up. The short version is as follows: I called property management as soon as they opened to get assorted things in motion. I got the city and the property management in contact with each other over the wiring dispute. Everyone's decided to wait to see what the electrician says. The guy from the city came to poke around. The electrical system is an emergency; the oven isn't. (Tavy remembered the city guy from two years ago. He's not in the clowder, but Tavy likes him and sort of followed him around. He has this warm, gentle vibe that is soothing to cats even though he is wandering around in work boots). The City is still hoping the electrician will say something that will budge Property Management, but if he doesn't, the City Program will likely pick up the insurance copay, assuming property insurance will cover the rest. The copay, while impossibly large for me, a person on SSI, is cheap at the price for the city program, if that makes sense, and a lot more doable than solving the whole thing for them given how stretched they are from flood damage. It's not 100% assured as they are using an emergency fund instead of the regular procedure.

Property management sent the proper paperwork for the visit to inspect the fire suppression. (I thanked the nice lady again for giving me the heads up on them on Property management trying to trick us into a surprise bill when she called for afternoon reschedule). Our belief that the component was dead is confirmed. They can't fix it apparently and it requires an electrician. Electrician has hopes of a preliminary visit this week or next. I'll call tomorrow and tell them about the fire suppression component and see if we can two in one there. (They are very backed up as a third of the city still has electrical damage from the floods. We are lucky to be this close to a visit).

I had a long talk with my social worker, catching her up on all the electrical drama and associated battles. She's calling around to see if there is some solution for the stove to various service agencies. I'm to call her back next week or when there is an electrical update. (For those just tuning in, she's a medical social worker who specializes in services for the elderly and disabled She is a superstar, and very good at finding weird little grants and programs for her people. If she can't find something to sort the stove no one can.)

On the upside there have been some more donations and I am pretty sure I can catch up the regular bills I didn't pay due to the Brakes Emergency. I'll know for sure that my maths tally up correctly in a few days. Squirrel thinks he can float the electrician visit. My next concern is the medical copay and the car tab bill that comes any day now, but I can’t deal with those until I know where I am on the biggest bill left.

I am thoroughly exhausted and down to the last few spoons. It is only Tuesday. I really need things to stop breaking, because it really feels like everything is caving in on my head at once.

* The Republican argument is that costing taxpayers trillions of dollars for no gain, destroying the ability of the government to do anything much for a generation or two, crashing the American and the world economy for fun are all a small price to pay to protest a democratic plan to get the rich to pay a small part of their share of taxes. Crashing the debt ceiling cost money the way not paying any of your bills costs money.

Tell your Democratic Senators the Filibuster needs to die now when it can do some good. Tell your Republican Senators to save the American economy by voting to raise. Tell both your senators to abolish the debt ceiling.

It's almost as if the decision to make being a teacher more expensive every year while paying teachers about the same as we pay fast food workers and eroding their benefits while for decades there has been a serious teacher shortage has so hollowed out the system so badly that one disaster could completely collapse the system.

To be clear support staff are treated even worse.

You know how for decades we've been saying we need to properly fund schools while republicans have been slashing funding? Yeah.

* So here's what's going on: I can't remember if I told y'all they had an opening at the hospital, so they moved my exploratory procedure up to next week. This is a good thing, given how quickly I'm deteriorating. It is quite possible in two weeks I'll be properly medicated and feeling better, assuming I don't also have cancer. I'm going to have a bunch of medic al stuff next week just generally, just like this week.

In other news, my glasses were ready a week early, so I am adjusting to bifocals again. These lack the line and are disconcerting if I move my head wrong, but are a dramatic improvement over the emergency non-bifocals I've been wearing and today was easier than yesterday, so I've hopes of being adjusted soon. These are by far the nicest glasses I've owned ever.

In other news, three of the millennials came over for an outdoor chargen picnic, held in accordance with current CDC guidelines. At some point in June my local friends will all be out of COVID jail. (Currently Squirrel, one of the Millennials, and I are all completely done. The others are half vax).

* I kept getting awakened Friday. Except for another beg from the Police Union, they were all important calls, but having long conversations, fetching my calendar etc., is not good for quality sleep.

Saturday I was too uncomfortable to sleep much. We did go and buy way too much juice and restricted diet/sick people foods for me to eat. I'm already in restriction, but I go up a level Monday and it gets worse from there. I need to sort out transport to the hospital, which is meant to be free and easy on my health plan, but the 24/7 number didn't connect. Like no error beep or message. No Ringing. Just dead line. Mmmmm... thanks? I spent like an hour looking for the direction sheet to get the number that went nowhere. I then tried typing in the title from the direction sheet which led me to another non-working number. O.o I added more search terms, found more directions. The first number it listed tried to sell me direct TV. WTF!?! The second number sounded correct, but says they are only Monday through Friday which is clearly not correct. My options are now call them Monday and see if they can give me the correct number or call my Social Worker and see if she has it. I don't understand why they would send me a directiion sheet with the wrong number and why my health plan site also lists a fake number.

squirrel will collect me after the proceedure and is trying to get off work. Caregiver Millennial has agreed to come and look after me in the evening. We plan to make good lemonade and sweet tea to store in the fridge on sunday, amoung other things.

I apparently have two different medical appointments at opposite ends of the day Monday. Fun!

* Monday was a nightmare. a scammer woke me at 7:59, fifteen minutes before the alarm. I spent a stupid amount of time trying to straighten out medical stuff on the phone. I spent the morning on medical stuff and other errands, all involving long waits, most of it standing up in stunning pain. I do not resent the lady with the baby taking one of two waiting room seats. I do resent the other six able bodied people who monopolized them during my 45 minute wait to drop off my specimen. I am visibly disabled, with a crutch and was obviously in massive pain, but I guess those able bodied people needed those two chairs more.

I went home to eat and lung and the like, then went out again for more medical stuff. Luckily the pre-proceedure COVID testing was drive through and very efficient. I am exhausted and in terrible pain. I get to do more medical stuff tomorrow. Sigh.

* My arm continues to improve. The shoulder still hurts, plus some secondary patches, but the arm can carry a reasonable amount of weight and I don't lose power to it randomly nor does it feel like it's being flayed if I use my hands and wrists too much. I can make this degree of range of motion work. This is a level of pain I consider functional, as in it doesn't interfere with the absolute essentials of keeping me and the animals and plants alive, so it's a win, even if it still kind of sucks. There are other parts of me regularly at this level. Several other parts of me around this level right now.

The cold/headache/queasiness are much better, but the cough has moved down into my lungs in the inevitable way anything remotely respiratory ends up. I'm monitoring it, basically.

My schedule is wildly off today. I had to stay up for food delivery as it's essential to keep the Millenials from carrying groceries inside. As I typed this, I was full of delicious fresh vegetables. I will have fresh fruit later. Omnomnom.

So I slept in, which I needed to do anyway, really. I am exhausted and I keep having to do laundry. This would have been fine, but the television froze again, luckily in the way where it keeps playing what you are watching, but you can't pause or change shows. Extra unluckily, I was in the middle of lading the alienist and it froze in the select screen. Happily, I'd been listening to a Noel coward play as I made dinner. not being able to see the funnier bits of acting was a loss, but even if I didn't know this play well, which I did, being coward, it works fine as a radio play.

It still wasn't unfrozen after lung time when the play ended, so I went back to my room to fold laundry. I knew this was a mistake; I did it anyway.

Since elder Kitty died, the Imperial couple have been basically living in the office and living room area, which are technically one room, but I set up the furniture that way for practical reasons. They have two litter boxes in the territory, feeding stations, and lots of mesting spots and entertainment. I think it has to do with the way things shifted towards the end of elder Kitties life, idk. No bed pets for baby girl and Tavy doesn't come to sleep on me or even hang out while I'm getting it together in the evening to leave the bed. Livia will run into my room, like she did when food delivery came or the like. For Tavy the prohibition is absolute and they no longer follow me the the bathroom or come to watch me cook in the kitchen. We get mobbed when we leave our rooms.

When I went to my room I put Tavy on my shoulder and carried him in. Normally he loves to "help" with laundry. He growled when I offered a chance to jump into the basket, so OI moved to an on bed spot and after more petting, he jumped off and left. Ah well, I thought. I watched a library movie and folded and put away the laundry. By which point I was exhausted.

I was lying there trying to talk myself into getting back up, when Tavy came in, climbed on my chest and after a pet, went to sleep. TRAPPED!

It was worth it though.

* I used to watch all the Pedro Almodóvar movies as they came out, but I've lost track in recent years, not really having money to go to movies much. I not only missed "Pain and Glory" in the cinema, I literally didn't know it was out until I saw it on the award lists last Winter. I must have ordered it from the Library before lockdown because it came last Tuesday.

I watched it tonight and DAMN! I am kind of glad I didn't see it in a cinema, but not for the usual reasons I say this. It was the most raw and vulnerable thing I've seen on screen since Gods and Monsters, I think, and that did not speak to me in the very personal way this did. Jesus did this speak to me.

It ripped my heart right out and towards the end I kept forgetting how to breath.

It is so rare, even now to see anything that captures any part of my experience or worldview or anything personal to me. I have trouble empathizing even a little with cis straight white men losing their shit because once in a while a movie or TV show isn't about then because even fragments I can identify with personally are rare. I have seen a childhood abuse pattern like mine depicted exactly once in all the books, tv shows, and movies I've seen in my life and that character in Six Feet Under took the equally clever, but opposite approach to resistance than the one I chose. I saw my first non-binary character on screen in the peerless Shortbus in 2006. I waited until I was 36 to find a character that shares something as basic as gender with me and all these men throw a tantrum because once in a blue moon they let a woman being and action hero these days. this is the sound of the world's tiniest violin squeaking for them. every now and then I'll catch a glimpse of of something like my mind in a character (Hey there Jack Harkness), or some distorted mirror image, but I'm strange and complex and I don't fit in the kind of stories people make for mass audiences, not really.

This movie though? Jesus fuck Almodóvar! I've never felt so soon, nor as naked. Oh the details are different, but the essence? Ouch. It was one of the most profound bits of art I've ever had the honor to look it. I may never see it again, because it's a bit like being flayed by inches.

I do not think I'd have wanted strangers to hear the sounds I started making towards the and or my face as I watched things like him saying goodbye to his old lover.

I think this is the most powerful a nuanced thing he's ever done, so deeply personal and specific, with the nuance and willingness to understate of a master of his craft. I just... no fucking words.

And this cast? All those years of experience seasoning them until they could do this.

I think I'll go have a good cry now.

* This is a really bad one. It's a massive fire and explosion in Beirut with a high casualty count, which as of this writing was rising. There is no proper ambulance service and the private services were already swamped with COVID victims, so people are having to find ways to transport the injured themselves. There is a lot of speculating, so I'll check in later when there is firmer intel. I had to cut off my watching of the coverage for mental health reasons. BBC has a lot of good verified eyewitness stuff if you are looking. I'm posting the CNN feed here, as it has a lot of non-speculative bigger picture stuff.

* I used to teach Millennial Eighth Graders about Anne Frank back in the Oughts. I've been thinking about it a lot lately. The question they always asked first was both simple and profound. They wanted to know how this happened. How could people let the holocaust happen.

And so I would tell them. I explained abut people making bad decisions in times of economic desperation. I talked about Hitler and the NAZIs harnessing that fear and desperation and turning it against innocent scapegoats for political gain. I talked a lot about scapegoating just generally because it's a useful fucking thing for a group of 8th graders and future voters to spend time thinking about how stereotyping and scapegoating are a slight of hand trick the powerful use to turn people's eyes away for the people and institutions that are really doing the harm so those powerful people can get even more power on the back of that misdirected mob rage. I talked about the psychology of scapegoating. I talked about Antisemitism in particular, but I left things open so they could apply the lesson to the demonization of people of middle eastern descent in the Bush Era America they could see around them and the anti-immigrant rhetoric and systemic anti-black racism that was and are endemic. I was trying hard to give them tools to see through racist populist rhetoric when they saw it.

I would speak to them about ordinary Germans in the 1930's. It's so easy to make the NAZIs inhuman aberrations, singular monsters. (I suspect that's why there are so many NAZI zombie movies and stories). Make NAZIs enough others and we don't have to face the reality that ordinary people did this big and terrible thing to other humans. So I would talk about the process of how it happened. It wasn't one day they were a Republic and the next they were Fascist dictatorship. So I talked about the way piece by piece civil society got chipped away. I talked about the slow boil of Antisemitism, violence, and the erosion of freedom going hand in hand. I talked about all those ordinary Germans falling in line or enthusiastically joining in.

I did not make the story a simple good and evil morality tale; I made it very clear that this is a thing that could happen anywhere if people let it.

I would look out at all those haunted faces, and I would meet their eyes one by one as I warned them that it could happen here, that they needed to be alert for the tricks that fascists use to get people in line and the lies people tell themselves to make them believe that doing these monstrous things was okay.

You could hear a pin drop in that room every time.

I wonder if any of my old students, now grown ass adults, some with children of their own, ever think of me chilling them to the bone one day in Spring with warnings about populist scapegoating of minorities and the chip, chip, chipping away of civil liberties, and the state violence. I wonder if they think of me when they read the news.

* I think I'm turning the corner. Right shoulder/arm are still bad, but I've got the pain down to a level where I'm painfully aware of secondary and tertiary damage areas. This is progress.

The Imperial couple are till noticeably distressed, but Saturday they returned to something approximating their usual activity/nap/migration schedule. Their appetites seem better today. I think part of the struggle to get Livia to eat her meat is that elder Kitty usually lines up with her. It's the time of day when her absence is most obvious from a cat perspective.

We all still miss her, each in our own way.

* I think I wrote this Monday: Tavy and Livia had a rough evening. Late afternoon they chased the grad students doing socially distanced and masked sunbathing off the lawn so they could power wash the gazebo. Tavy thought the workers were hissing and growling at him and he spent a couple of hours sporadically hissing and growling back.

Something's also clearly on fire near enough to us that the nasty smoke smell and lowered air quality are really messing with me.

Then the smoke detector went off, panicking the Imperial couple who ran out to see if I was scared. Long silence. Me: Could it be the smoke? Detector: CHIRP! Imperial couple *panics* I double check to make sure nothing inside could be doing it and turn on the hood and the bathroom vents just in case. Detector: CHIRP! It was too sporadic to be reacting to something. It went off again while I was putting on my shoes.

I bought two new 9 volts braving the store before it closed. Luckily it was sparsely populated and people were following the mandatory mask and distancing order. Luckily, there was just enough left on a card to cover two 9-volts. Let's hope I don't need meds again this month, shall we?

My arm is borked again, but it was finally cool enough for squirrel to sleep, so my unsteady ass climbed the ladder. I had to let go the lintel to futz with it and it still wasn't fixed. I made multiple attempts. I ended up waking him after all. Turned out it was my bedroom detector a couple feet away from the one I was trying to fix. Or possibly both of them. IDk. We spent an hour between us. I had two cats hiding under my desk for most of it. I had to go collect Elder kitty from the top of the thirty in the middle of it, as those lights are fragile and I'm scared she'll fall. (The light on the twenty she sits on is sturdier and the tank is a lot lower. She can get on and off easily. I've seen her thinking about trying to straight jump off the thirty). I've had to do this once or twice most nights since her stroke.

The Imperial couple did eventually come out to lounge around the livingroom where they could see me and each other, but they are jumpy. While I was writing this, I blew my nose, and Tavy jumped high in the air sideways off the sofa landing about 5 feet away, terrifying poor Livia who couldn't work out which way to run.

* Wednesday: I had that thing where when I tried to get up the first time I almost threw up from the pain. I opted for extra medication and comforting the Imperial couple, who are understandably distressed. Livia in particular is taking it hard. At one point she was wandering around the area where elder kitty died squeaking plaintively. Elder kitty had warmed up to her enough that they would hang out together a couple of feet apart just like Livia wanted, and they'd been extra close after the first stroke. She kept waking me up for reassurance, poor thing. Tavy's just generally been discombobulated for the last week and a half and he needed a lot of extra cuddle time this evening.

Once I did make it up there was a lot of cleaning to do. The bed to strip and change, boxes to tend to, livingroom soft furnishings to hand clean and febreeze, and lots of little things I'd been too busy to sort out properly between the ongoing right arm issue and Elder Kitty's rapid decline. There will be more of that tomorrow if my arms are working well enough.

We all miss her.

* Livia still doesn't have much appetite and they are both clingy and unsettled. I can't blame them.

I can't seem to make any headway on the pain situation. It's my own fault; I keep moving in my sleep. I'm usually more disciplined than this. I think it's a bit of a spiral. I was undisciplined a couple weeks ago once, which made me feel crap so it's harder to remember to stay still after I drift off. When I'm awake I try to roll it back, but even the magic tub can't shave off enough to undo more damage than I do when I sleep. I am out of tricks. I would call the doctor at this point, except I know perfectly well there is nothing to be done, but endure and try to keep my meds down.

* TW: Pedophila. When Republicans say they support Roy Moore, what they are really saying is that a person believing that a right wing terrorist who blew up a church and murdered four little girls is a worse person than someone who molested at least nine teenagers and was willing to use force on at least one. They are saying they are so in favour of murdering children because of the colour of their skin that they are completely comfortable with a child molester representing them. That is the choice: someone who tried to put a terrorist in prison or a pedophile.

* I'm rewatching the back half of Season 2 of DS9, and I keep thinking how much I want a modern reboot. The politics are incredibly pertinant. The Cardassians are, after all, a stand in for both the NAZIs and the Soviets. Now seems a good time to revisit the aftermath of the Occupation of Bajor for a host of real world reasons, from the refugee and concentration camps, to the questions of guilt and complicity and the ethics of Resistance, to the Cardassians secretly arming and funding Bajorian Extremists in order to destabilize Bajoran Democracy, to the proxy war in the DMZ. I just really thing these stories ought to be told again right now.

And oh would I love a version that wasn't constantly brushing up against homophobic and transphobic censorship. Imagine a version where Dax's gender implications and bisexuality could be openly and fully explored. Imagine a version where instead of Kira Nerys just giving Jadzia these painful longing looks when she is walking away, and where they are endlessly forcing hetero romance plots in that generally do not fit, teasing us briefly with what could be, and then resetting to het they could actually have and explore that relationship properly. Imagine a version in which Garak gradually successfully seduces Julien instead of both actors projecting subtext like wild but it being absolutely forbidden. Garak's slow emotional and intellectual seduction is so well done in the cannon version. The move from outright suspicion on julien's part to them bickering over literature while in line for their daily lunch together, to the moment in the episode I watched tonight where by rights they should have kissed and it is obvious how much julien cares despite his denials, and the gift of garak's trust, to Julien's holding his hand. When this was made DS9 and B5 (which also desperately needs a modern reboot) had to fight for a single scene implying physical and romantic love between women. With the right Network in support, they could really let the relationships breath, here in the second decade of the 21st century.

* Cup of China: Men. Max Aaron is noticeably improved over the Summer and much more fun to watch, being one of the ones who added Ballet over the Summer. He's still a tad primitive on footwork and choreography, but is so much closer to where he needs to be. I adore Javier Fernandez. He's the sort of total package skater I enjoy and he really connects with the crowd. Pairing him with Man of La Mancha in an Olympic year is a stroke of genius. Tonight though? Ouch. He made a hash of his jumping pass to the extent that that the commentators were speculating he might have a stomache bug. It was hard to watch. I do hope it was temporary and that he'll be more himself next he competes. Jin Boyang was on my short list last year of young skaters who could be podium contenders if they got their artistics up over the Summer, and I've been eagerly looking forward to seeing what he's skating this year. *wince* The choreography was not good: simplistic, lots of telegraphing, strange transitions, inelegant spin. Plus, he was having a bad night with his jumps. As with Javier, I know he is way better than this performance technically and in both cases, it was really hard to watch. Mikhail Kolyada struggled with his early jumps, but I've honestly never seen him connect as well with the crowd and I think this music and choreography really suits him. One a day when the best skaters were falling all over the place, I honestly can't fault the judges on how things fell out. Let us all hope everyone does better when we get closer to Korea.

* My router died Sunday night, seconds after I offered rp, for which I was heartily sorry, but had no means of conveying. The router had been limping on for years, and its final demise was inconvenient, but not entirely unexpected. I wrote up the latest Black Sails with no ability to check things on the Internet and while wrestling Tavy as I tried to transcribe quotes, for extra difficulty points.

I snagged a few hours sleep, then went out into snow flurries to be in line as soon as Xfinity opened. It took literal hours to get the new router working, so there went my day.
