I haven't been writing much here for a few months. Too busy, too tired. Still been doing a lot of political writing.
Came to a realization a few days ago. The largest political discussion platform right now is FaceBook (FB). On there, there are a number of Progressive groups. Some that call themselves Progressive but are not. Easy to spot the difference because the fake ones are always pushing the same old establishment lines. For the real Progressive groups, there are maybe ten people leading the charge for actual change. Of those ten, I am one of the most prolific writers. For the others, one recruited me as an admin to our group then I recruited 4 others. So 6 of the 10 are in our group. Then I am friends with two others (and used to be admins for their groups but it became too much). Hmm. Maybe there are 12 but some are hard hitting but not so prolific.
Strange it took me so long to figure that out. Just stayed so focused on getting things done I missed it.
Now FB is engaging in active censorship. So we are slowly migrating to a new platform, MeWe. It is new, so I was able to grab a group name I wanted. Butterfly Effect, after the theory. Most of us are trying to get people to move away from names, hate and division. Instead, get them to see we have to focus on issues. Not an easy task. So many are just outright addicted to the anger, hate and fear. It's going to take time and effort.
Still have not been so productive around here for a while. Had planned on getting a lot done this weekend. Then the temperature plunged. Ugh.
I am also going to try decreasing my medication. Very possible I am taking too much and it's having long-term effects. So I am cutting the Melatonin dose in half and leaving out the Valerian Root for now. Try decreasing more gradually.
Something has been on my mind for a while. It may not be bad for me to move to Alabama. It really seems like my health has taken a major hit since moving to NM. It may just be coincidence but maybe not. Perhaps it has to do with the elevation or the water. I've been drinking a lot of cranberry juice lately to increase the acidity in my GI tract. That seems to help a bit. So maybe the water is too alkaline? Guess I won't really know until after I move.
Looking forward to moving at this point. Since I was attacked in Nov, I have been followed on at least 4 occasions by one person or another from the same address. Then on several other occasions I have seen my attacker while I was driving and he was walking. Each time I was walking since Nov 19th, I have had my pistol with me. I honestly think that I would have been attacked again if not for that. They are probably waiting to catch me without the pistol but that's not going to happen. Nor will I let them get behind or too close to me. May sound like paranoia but the same attacker followed me at least once. Another tried to get behind me. Another was walking with a stick which is designed ONLY for fighting, once again, trying to get behind me. One walked directly toward me until I put my hand on the pistol, then he crossed the street. He walked past me to the intersection. I went around the corner onto my street and looked back. He was then walking back in my direction, on my side of the street. I pulled the pistol out with it at my side. He kept walking down the other street at that point.
I've ordered two spy cameras. For work and to record that address to send the video to the police. I have no doubt the video will show multiple people that have warrants for their arrest. They'll never know what hit them. Unless the police just don't do anything. Here that would not surprise me.
