Will It Rain? Can It Rain?

 Pretty good rain chances today and anywhere else you'd sort of expect SOMETHING, but here? I don't think so. Or, if it does rain it'll come with 3" hailstones that'll smash the crap out of everything. I've lived here too long to expect anything good. I'd really rather have more drought than face the prospect of putting a new roof on this house. Lubbock is not a very good place to live, in my opinion. I'm only here because I'm already here and I hate to move, and have "roots" here. But living here, you are putting up with some sort of crap on a regular basis. At least we don't have earthquakes, and tornadoes are not as frequent as they used to be. I'm trying to look on the bright side. We aren't being hammered with cruise missiles. That's something positive.

I shouldn't complain. One of the crappy things about life in the PU (Physical Universe) is that it could ALWAYS be much worse and somewhere out there it IS much worse. It's almost enough to make a Gnostic out of one! Hey, what sort of shoddy, half-assed, crap place is this anyway?? I don't think sentient organisms of any sort deserve this shit-hole "world". 

The Past Looks Better And Better

 The future, on the other hand, looks more and more like shit. Over the past two weeks Covid deaths and cases have increased almost 50% in the USA. A new wave has only just begun, it seems. If even mild cases of Covid produced significant brain damage, much would be explained. It would be far better if Covid damaged the human reproductive systems, male and female, with infertility as a result. THAT would be very good. But nobody needs brain damage. There was more than enough crazy and stupid out there, even before Covid. But a drastic decline in the birth rate would be wonderful. 

And global warming is real, whether you believe in it or not. Nature, as I've said before, doesn't respect what you believe. Nature is a constellation of blind, inexorable, forces-- and it doesn't give a damn. 

From The Past Closely

 Will I ever do anything new? Eventually. Not today. Not tomorrow. Eventually. Probably. Someday.

Interest and motivation are lacking.

This And That From The Past

 Cool mornings and record highs on the meteorological Krazy Train. Like, in the 50's F this morning and a projected 102 F for a high temperature. And it just won't rain. No no no, it just won't rain. 

My sole objective is to maintain my very own personal status quo. No changes, nothing new, no novelty. Keep the outside world at bay. How I loathe and detest and abhor change. They say that life is change. Draw your own conclusions. 

Sunflowers Of The Past

 Drought projections for Texas are dire! Well, screw Texas. I really don't care. My "horizon" is such that I no longer have to give a damn. That's a great luxury. 

I like this zooming in on the past thing I'm doing.
