HELLO!

As is typical for my writings here, I am jumping in feet first without any land in sight. In part I am here because I am super excited for FINALLY having a new phone, after dragging my old one with me for five years. Also, I want to show appreciation for the two or three views that I have gotten recently here, from wherever they originated. I really appreciate you. I hope you were here due to the allure of some true inspiration. Please, let me know what your thoughts were, and are!!

Currently listening to The Fixx's 1988 album, "Calm Animals", after having exposed myself to their 1983 output, "Reach The Beach", multiple times recently. I heard "Animals" in the past at least once. The sphinx artwork is certainly eye-catching. I suppose I should mention "Powerslave" here, too, but for reasons I couldn't honestly put into text.

The biggest reasoning for my new phone was the battery ROADBLOCKS I have been having while trying to film myself and simultaneously log my gains into Arnold and co's "The Pump" app. It was a logical decision to invest in something modern now for at least that reason. I did not want to go back into a payment plan for something, as I have most of my past debt in a relief program right now, but I couldn't use my gift card in the purchase, so the payment plan I have is a natural necessity. I will be paying it off far before the 18-month end date.

As I have said, it is a Google Pixel 6a. And, no, I don't really care that they stopped their updates or whatever just this December. Maybe I should in some ways. But I lived with my Galaxy J7 Crown for half a decade, so what is the big idea??? Lmao. There is no magical solution, anyway. A phone is simply an addition means to a shared end. Complimentary--ultimately not supplementary. Would you agree?

My laptop just hit 10% on battery saving mode. Let's play an literally and tonally unrelated version of the "40 Year Old Virgin" game and see if I can finish this article before it falls asleep, LOL.

I am currently running my phone battery down to 0% to better attempt to start handling its battery on a better foot. I'd like to become more responsible this time around, and possibly reduce the headaches to a minimum; in terms of phone integration into my life and the integration of things in general. Naturally strengthening and turning up the density of advancements in general...perhaps a sign of godliness, or divine efficiency?

Still, my biggest roadblock is building an income--nee, getting a job. I really don't care about this whole "everyone needs to work" kind of mentality. I mean, if it means not putting inhumane pressure on others, and keeping yourself above boredom and madness, then, yes, I am all for it. But--be it ignorantly, or stubbornly, or what have you--I am hooked on the notion that I have ways I could contribute, so why can't others simply seek me out?

And its not that I don't have proof, or "proof", to offer.

Well...

It all may come down to be

(My laptop battery died. Lol.)

that I am simply just another fish in the pond right now; just small game not yet on the line, or sought to be hooked.

But I will be one day.

Maybe it comes down to being the known in a sea of newcomers,

or being part of the few in an area of society which, on the whole, appears to be separated from the rest,

or...

But that's a good enough place to end it now.
