Missing an Old Friend

This old fellows name was Terry. Him 3 others and myself started a service organization in town that rather failed at it's task, but still we managed to raise money every years before Covid hit for a camp for LGBTQ+ kids.

I miss my friend, he was very wise and you could talk about anything with him and he would not blink if it got dark or even kinky.

He had a hard time of it in his final couple years of life with a great deal of pain. I never found out how he died but I have a hunch.

He's just one of many people I miss having in my life. Seems more people have died on me that stayed alive. But thus is life.

Fake News? How About Fake Ads?

Well ya know. There is no price and I have to guess what the hell this actually is - But I'll click it and order some, just because there is a time limit on it. Did I mention I have been seeing this and several others like it all week and they ALL expire 10:00 PM Tomorrow... It's been saying that for 4 days now. Not to mention the genius of posting a B/W photo and saying there are 3 secy colors. Honestly by the look of it, it's a charging cord just like in the dollar store. I also bet it's going to be like $6 or more and then there is some absurd amount of shipping you don't notice till the last moment in hopes of catching the people who quick click threw ordering stuff. Yup sadly I know several people who have done just that multiple times and wondered why the charge on their PayPal or credit card is 3X the price of the item. Not to mention do I really want to dive some unheard of site my credit card info? Come to think of it, I keep seeing the same batch of ide

To Hell With Your Facebook Group

Image
Just dumped a local group from my life forever on Facebook. What a bunch of ignorant people. It started with a woman asking for help to feed her children because they ran out of money and the food bank is over limit and gives very little now. Well all kinds of twats jumped on her telling her to get a job and much more. They no literally nothing about the families situation and they don't care, they live to look down on others and attack them for daring to be poor, or disabled, or whatever. I've seem far too much of it over the two years I've been a member and I'm freaking done with it. No more. This is every day someone gets attacked by ass-hats looking to offend anyone they can. You would think there was no mods at all, but there is. They seem to only take down posts for people looking to sell things and so on, while allowing businesses to post ads all they want. Not one of this group of malevolent twats has been booted or even restricted. I'm in it to ask question

CANADIAN TV SHOWS OF THE 1970'S

The Fifth Estate (1976 - Still Going) Documentary, News This was a show that I remember my Mom and Dad watching once a week. Later in life I watched it as well. I no longer watch it as I’m no longer interested in news. At the time in the 70’s I did not really get what it was all about, I just wanted to be with my parents while they watched it. My brother never did stay for it if I remember correctly. Hockey Night in Canada (1952 - Still Going) Sports Dad watched this all the time in the 70’s and 80’s then just kind of stopped. I now watch it on my own. I love Hockey and CFL (Canadian Football). At the time I just was there for it – was not interested in sports until I was much older. Marketplace (1972 - Still Going) News, Consumer Affairs This is the consumer affairs show in Canada. They document what a business is doing wrong to a customer or a group and then confront them with it on camera. They have effected change over the years and ran a few places out of business. I was inte

A Month of Hell

Image
In 4 weeks I've injured me knee bad enough to need a cane. I've developed Edema and it's not going away with a water pill. Then came a series of blood clots in the back of my led. I think hurt my back. Right now a randomly accruing severe pain in my testicles is going off on me. It's not been a good month at all. There is also that I have been broke for months and if I was not given money for some fun I would have had nothing but suffering for a month. At this exact moment I'm kind of sure I just pulled a muscle on my chest - I've done it several times in the past and it feels exactly the same. My left foot is over twice it's normal size and it's hard to put a shoe on it. I need a test before I see the doctor again, and as of now no one has called me to come in for it. I'm falling apart it seems.
