Stuff and colored eggs

In reading all the stuff that catches my interest in the blogs that I read, stories on the net and the listening/watching to the vlogs that I subscribe.

One quick observation but not something that I’m going to jump into at all. We all, me included, are self focused. Not so much selfish but self focused. Really while we are not the center of the universe we do experience life from the center which is us. More on that later.

Second point which is what got me to sit down and to start writing. Which is more and more we are relying on watching rather than reading. I keep struggling with the idea of converting to a vlog.

Reasons to vlog… I’m so scattered that writing is a problem at times. Some of how I relate to the world is through voices which I think are funny that doesn’t translate in writing, although I do try to write in a why that might reflect the voice. Some of the points are only just the briefest of thoughts and don’t need a lot of attention.

Reason not to vlog… lord I am not fit for mass visual consumption as in ugly. Ok I’m not creature ugly or even sexy ugly, thank you Helen, but I may really have some BDS stuff going on and part of it is real and part of it is possibly damaged esteem.. Point is I’m likely to take the critical stuff to harshly and that won’t help things.

I don’t own a camera right now that will make this an easy thing to flip to and I don’t have the money to buy something like that at the moment.

So a vlog featuring yours truly is still an idea but not a real possibility in the near future.

The writing this is probably how I’ll keep doing the dump all the words out of my head and keeping them from bottling up inside of me.

I have noticed that the sacred cows out there in the world like the internet if it serves their purpose but do not like it when the sword is turned against them.

For example, businesses love it because they can put all their propaganda out there into cyber space, with their particular spin on things.

Now any business may be a good business or a bad business. Any business may treat their employees fairly or unfairly.

What I do not like is the trend of the courts in this country and in other places around the world is to take the words of employees of businesses from expressing their own personal views about a company or business and firing the employee because it was on the internet.

Bored at work comments … have gotten several people terminated. You know what if your job is not intellectually stimulating then most likely you are bored at work but that does not translate into said employee is not doing their job.

And if an employee makes some statement about how they do not like another person at their job and posts it on line then it’s some unforgivable sin. I can’t remember anyone ever telling me at any job I’ve ever held that liking my co-workers was a requirement of the job. Now being a team player or good team worker is but you don’t have to like your team-mates to do a good job. I don’t think anyone would have said Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen really liked the other but they did work well together.

Which ties it back to the first point as a related thing we are all self focused, how we view the world is from our point of view not someone else. As Paul said to the J-man it doesn’t matter what the truth is, people will see the world how they see it. Even when confronted with facts regarding the truth they will not change.

The fact is businesses and those in power and with money control our courts so there is no justice for the sake of justice.

There is no truth except what you can buy.

There is no fact any more that can not be sold as a lie

In other news…

Off to color eggs.

That’s all for now other stuff tomorrow, have a great day and play nice in the neighborhood.

Ciao,
