Oh? Some interesting ideas, and good morning.

.

I was able to stay awake until noon.  Thing is that will be tight to get to town.  I will try to stretch my day just a bit longer.  I am crashing those last few hours, which means I would be driving to town on fumes.  Still, I like where this is going.

Tired, all the time.  It hurts a bit.  A little pain is pretty much a norm in life, if most have learned to mitigate or hide.  We simply can't face it all of the time, at full volume.  Fair enough.  Heck, we can't believe it all of the time.  Some more so than others though comparing apples to apples is a very delicate task and would require knowledge none may have.  I won't say I know what lies deep in the that pit.  Nor do I know how high the stairs lead.  And that being in myself.  How could I possibly know where those things lead to in another, save by their outward expressions.  Knowing that for decades I could not even express, just went catatonic, means someone who seems numb might be farther along than can even be shared is something to think about.  Doesn't change that I am tired as crap.  :p

Oh, a number of... fun videos.  No, nothing reaches out to grab you or gouges at your eyes, nothing rends your spirit, tears at your soul, or even makes you cry... save maybe laughing if you knew none of this but then it hits you.  Just... factoids in cartoon form.  True?  I tend to think they have some of the information.  But they are mostly for fun.  For example, when they suggest that the "most common ancestor"... to anything really... what they really should say because they are basing it on a debunked theory (of evolution, at the very least as it sits), they should say the closest genetic fit... if even that isn't always the case.  Still...

This first one is a wonderful exploration of why we get things wrong, see things in a certain way, and such.  One of my... problems... is that I keep looking.  And I don't see the obvious, or set it aside quickly.  Most don't, and don't like those who do.  It is... culturally, socially, problematic.  And, yes, academics are just as prone, perhaps more so, to do just this same thing.  Their average IQ is marginally higher and their contact with minor thinking and information is much greater, but their flaws remain, but in a social strata just ever so slightly above non-informed populations, at best.  In the real world, though, they are easily spotted as being... what they are.  I haven't found my own social network yet, but I am sure I am just as limited within it, just saying.  There isn't a way out, but there is a way up.  Starts with knowing your limits.  By the way, his quick talk distracts the fast thinking, making it easier to trick you into failure.  Got me once on that, not twice.  *mute*  I employ such tricks myself, when... need be.  He is weak with the force.

This video is quite interesting.  Though I must say that size is not absolutely equated to strength.  At my strongest I still looked thin.  I looked thin even for my weight.  But I could bench two and a half times, about exactly, my physical body weight.  So, don't think that just because you can only look like a swimmer that you can't be quite strong.  Looks are deceiving and extra muscle mass is more often just something more to feed, something that doesn't give much return on the investment.

These last two are just interesting possible factoids.  Enjoy, or not.
