I miss being able to think clearly. I'm gonna be one of those old guys who makes no sense.

I heard a rumor about this thinking clearly thing... sounds interesting, not that I know exactly what it means.

I guess I mean that as I get older I feel like I have to second-guess what I see or what I type. I don't read as much as I should so reading comprehension is getting a little fuzzy. And I'm only 42.

OH belive me I understand. I don't think its are related in my case, its car accident related. I'm ALWAYS second guessing things, you know its bad when just somone suggesting something to me like "hey did you leave the stove on?" and I know I didn't but they just that doubt, and my foggy memory makes me think... GOD DAMNIT now i gotta go check the stove.

And reading requrres more focus than it used to too. (although I've been actually practicing to get this stuff better for years, it is improving , but glacially slow)

This website here: Cognifit is good for training all sorts of comprension/reaction time / memory stuff. (althouigh it is actualy WORK, its not "fun") although its more fun than the speech therapy crap I had go to to for 6 months.

Thats the meaning of life age apparently, if the story is correct.

I miss being easily entertained. If television or movies aren't intellectual enough they won't keep my interest anymore. Watching the average commercial is like having a cheese grater run across my brain; seeing products that can be replaced with DIY alternatives just adds jagged metal to the insult..

    • So I just got back from Happy Endings and I saw @DJ Saintthere.  He told me that after I got kicked out of High Dive that later on Mike also attacked him, and Mike and his crew were also kicked out.  Then we talked about the scene and possible upcoming gigs.  I hope something comes his way soon, as well as mine too.  With the current economy I think more club owners will be hungry to try more things like goth/industrial/other alternative nights.  I've also heard that GenZ isn't online dating and is actually going out into the world to meet people which may also help business owners, though they aren't drinking which doesn't really help much.  I think more places are going to need to start serving food and mocktails to make up the difference. Then Mike showed up at Happy Endings which I thought was highly likely because I hadn't seen him there in a while, and @DJ Aaron Hingst,@elektrosonik, and his husband Tim were all there too.  He did something else I wasn't expecting...  Which was he actually shook my hand and said it was good to see me, which caught me a little off guard.  He didn't apologize for anything but it's a start I think.  I told him I was sorry to hear about @djpleasurekitten's passing (which I was/am.  Despite the rift that ended up existing between us we were friends at one point.) So maybe he's moving on finally?  If so then I'm glad.  I'm still not sure if I'll ever go back, but it is at least a start, and it's nice to actually see he's trying to bury the hatchet in something other than my skull.
    • Stargate Universe, which everyone said sucked but I'm actually enjoying it? Like there are less jokes, but lots of dark humor, and people might actually die rather than have 10ft thick plot armor?  Yes please more of this!
    • Failbook is blocked so I can't see any of the info. "Oh you don't need to login to view!" No, you don't understand...  This is my /etc/hosts file:   # Block Meta IPv6 fe80::1%lo0 facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 login.facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 www.login.facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 fbcdn.net fe80::1%lo0 www.fbcdn.net fe80::1%lo0 fbcdn.com fe80::1%lo0 www.fbcdn.com fe80::1%lo0 static.ak.fbcdn.net fe80::1%lo0 static.ak.connect.facebook.com fe80::1%lo0 connect.facebook.net fe80::1%lo0 www.connect.facebook.net fe80::1%lo0 apps.facebook.com12 # Block Meta IPv4 0.0.0.0 facebook.com ~~~~~ A METRIC FUCKTON OF OTHER FB DOMAINS ~~~~~ 0.0.0.0 zh-tw.facebook.com I had to edit it and cut off many lines because it's 2171 lines long and the overwhelming majority is just Facebook domains. Those IPs for v4 and v6 mean they lead to the HTTP equivalent of /dev/null X/Twitter is blocked too.  I need to block Alphabet/Google and Microsoft as well, but they're actually useful for certain things (damn you YouTube and GitHub!)
