my flaws

I over-think everything, lack confidence, and am reckless in my personal life. I tend to procrastinate and be a perfectionist.

I am too honest*, and too just and fair as I will weigh every side down to the last gram and then dissect the baby.

* I once answered that at a job interview when asked my flaws and he sourly replied, "Honesty is a plus."

I said, "I can be TOO honest, and in the wrong situations."

He said, "Must be another problem, honesty is never a flaw."

The mood never recovered.

Walking to my car across asphalt I realized, "I should have lied."

I don't want to play anymore

The world exists. A human is born. Many humans already exist, and all on the planet is already possesed. Facing death and starvation, the human creates more for the humans that already own everything and is given a morsel of food so as to survive another day and return the next day to create more profit for the humans that already own everything.

The humans are playing Monopoly. All the property is owned. As many times as a new human goes around the board and collects $200 there is no escaping the fact that the owners of all the property get the new player's $200 in short order. If all profits go to the owners, and all property is already owned, then those who own nothing shouldn't play.

This is where we are at, and that is how many feel; "I don't want to play anymore." Creating new squares where profits, rents, will be divided between the owners and the workers, who do ALL the work, is the bare minimum of fairness. Otherwise it is merely slow murder.

Been gone too long … so much to do

The psychic thrashing I took at actually took quite a toll on me and made me re-evalute my overall course of action. I am interested in just about everything and have a fair amount of talents and end up jumping from one thing to another in cycles over days and weeks and even years. I probably have ADHD or whatever, but I'm old and out of school now, so fuck it.

My creative mood curled up and retreated and I seriously considered that I may never be a successful "professional author." Sure, I worked for years as a reporter, and years as an editor, but I never leveraged that into selling books. And now time grows slim and the bucket list grows fat and I must believe that there are things that will remain undone.

Here is my sanctum. Here, on this page, alone in a room I can quietly write. One day there may be visitors and I may eventually have to speak to somebody, but that is far away.

TO DO for here - link list categories.

1. Equitable Principles - worker democracy, et al.

2. Writing, blogging, fiction, nonfiction, art

3. Biz, legal and financial

4. Film and video

4a. RC Aviation

5. Errata
