Welcome to the Community About Nothing, and Yet Everything.
I note that Saint Greta of Climate Change was arrested at an anti-coal mine protest. I smiled that peculiar smile of schadenfreude as I read it.
While I'm sure that St. Greta will wear this as a badge of honor, I anticipate that a recidivist has been born. Once an activist has seen the inside of a jail cell and booking room, they become less frightened of it, and even sometimes begin to seek it out. Now that St. Greta has found herself once again in front of microphones and cameras, the addiction will grow.
I guess it's a freeing moment when one realizes one has lost the innocence of a clean legal record and can no longer enjoy the pride of being a normal upstanding citizen. Go get 'em, St. Greta. Your consequences will be delivered once the media is finished using your antics to sell advertising space and you are no longer their useful idiot. Well done, young lady, well done.

Why do I like this one? I have a primary residence on the Mountain of Right.
Of you who read my previous post, how many of you caught the quote I stole from a movie? Can you name the movie and who said it?
Bet you didn’t know there would be a test…..
So, I have completed 4 of 6 chemo infusions, and I have to say that the last one seems to have caused almost no side effects that cannot be otherwise explained by the disease itself. I remain exhausted all the time, and I go home at the end of the workday positively depleted. That, however, seems to be due to the anemia that somewhat existed before chemo started but certainly seems to have been exacerbated by it.
I presently sit at a 40% disability rating with the Veterans Administration with some big stuff pending. I am awaiting a decision on my hearing loss and the PTSD/Depression. The cancer aspect takes a step forward with an exam by a VA contracted provider who will provide a recommendation as to the service connection to the cancer. If it goes my way and I get to 100%, then as soon as the first check hits the bank, I’m retired. While this exam is scheduled for Monday, I have no assurance that a VA determination will be quickly forthcoming. Patience is the key.
My spirits ...
