Habitual abomination. Rather than retire last night early into the midnight hour after watching T.V. with my younger brother, I remained up until ─ as I recall ─ 3:41 a.m.
And although it was but 7:40 a.m. this morning when I was awake enough to be curious about the time, and I was to rise soon enough thereafter, I have actually felt reasonably decent throughout today despite the insufficiency of sleep. Even my afternoon nap was not overlong ─ I was only in bed a little over an hour.
My wife had come home quite late last night ─ it was after 1:30 a.m. However, I did not allow that to deter my vile preoccupation that kept me up. She was to have to work a full day today (with an 11 a.m. start) at the Thai restaurant where she is employed part-time, so she was up this morning by possibly as early as 9:40 a.m.
My brother and I spent the latter morning watching Ottawa Freedom Convoy 2022 videos ─ this morning, it was primarily the morning's effort by YouTube's Viva Frei.
In the course of that video, a couple of potentially interesting websites were mentioned, as well as livestreams from other people who are in Ottawa patrolling the streets where the trucker convoy and its supporters congregate, but I soon forgot all of them. Actually, it is very difficult to understand the handles that some of these livestreamers use, and it is seldom made clear just which platforms they can be found on.
I do not have an Instagram account, so any who restrict themselves to that medium have lost out on my viewership. And although I do have a Twitter account, it is not where I would ever go to view videos. My brother and I watch them on T.V. via browser apps that I have downloaded into our Android TV Box, and platforms like those are just too difficult to negotiate.
So unless these people have accounts at YouTube ─ or Rumble or Odysee or BitChute ─ and it is clearly identified that they do, then my brother and I am not going to be part of their audience.
By the way, my youngest stepson arrived home today barely ahead of 1 p.m. this afternoon. He had been away since quite late Monday morning with a couple of friends to Kelowna to snowboard at Big White.
I realize that I tend to bounce about when I make these posts ─ and I wish to practice that action here right now by mentioning a movie that I watched last evening with my brother. It was 2018's Mute. We had quite recently watched Moon, a movie billed as its predecessor. However, the cast and storyline in each movie are entirely unrelated ─ only the futuristic version of Earth is in common.
Mute was quite good, and kept my brother interested, fortunately. He can be truly miserable if he fails to like a film of my choosing.
The main character was played by tall actor Alexander Skarsgård, whom I thought was unknown to me. I see now by his acting credits that I have surely seen his work before. I may even have seen him in the lead role in the 2016 movie The Legend of Tarzan, if I have indeed seen that movie. (I have often in the past watched movies while drunk, so my memory of some of these is largely lost.)
I have to say that actress Seyneb Saleh was very attractive to me as made up for her role as Alexander Skarsgård's character's girlfriend.
Okay, now I am going to jump back to the subject of the Freedom Convoy 2022.
I learned this afternoon of support from Dr. Robert Malone in the form of an Open Letter to the Canadian Truckers. It bears being publicized.
Fox News was in Ottawa and this is an eight-minute video that they uploaded to YouTube two days ago: 'The Five' blast 'elite cupcake' Justin Trudeau. That lying clown has to go!
The final item I wish to mention relating to the Ottawa convoy is the possibility that I learned of this afternoon that the crowdfunding website GoSendGo has now frozen access to the donations that people have made to the truckers ─ see, for example, this GlobalNews.ca article published just today: Ontario freezes funds from GiveSendGo trucker convoy fundraiser.
First GoFundMe failed the truckers, and now it appears that the alternative GoSendGo may be doing the same.
However, that may only be wishful thinking by the Ontario and Canadian governments, for the article does say this as claimed by GoSendGo:
“Know this! Canada has absolutely ZERO jurisdiction over how we manage our funds here at GiveSendGo,” it said.
“All funds for EVERY campaign on GiveSendGo flow directly to the recipients of those campaigns, not least of which is The Freedom Convoy campaign.”
That was supposedly declared this evening (back East).
I did not realize that GoSendGo was a "Christian fundraising site", so maybe they do intend to defy any limited Canadian court order. After all, GoSendGo are not Canadian-based.
I pray to God that this is indeed what they intend to do.
Okay, my evening is here ─ time to quit blogging for today.
