Chosen Mum

Even though I was to bed comfortably ahead of midnight last night, and with my cellphone alarm set for 6 a.m., I felt abominable when that hour arrived and thus I remained in bed for nearly another two hours, barely rising ahead of my younger brother's emergence from his bedroom for the morning.

I need to live somewhere remote from other people ─ certainly not in this part of congested Surrey where I cannot venture forth during the day because I live in what seems a colony of India. I do not drive, so I am shut up in my home all the day long because of the stress that is brought by exposure to the heavy street traffic and the endless homes in every direction. There is no serenity nor privacy ─ I can't bear it, so I am a prisoner of my own home, trapped.

I've got to get off this topic.

I joined my brother a little after 9 a.m., getting the news that actor / director Rob Reiner and wife were knifed to death yesterday, seemingly by their own son.

My brother was not long in turning the T.V. over to me so that I could begin operation of our Android TV Box, at which point I led us off with a 13-minute (13:32) video uploaded yesterday to YouTube's AnitaK channel: “Party of One: Why This New Political Party Is Already Imploding”.

BC’s newest political party didn’t even make it out of the gate before things started falling apart.

What was supposed to be a fresh alternative in British Columbia politics quickly became a party of one, after public infighting between Dallas Brodie and Tara Armstrong led to a split inside One BC. Disagreements over leadership, direction, and internal decision-making exposed deeper problems within the party’s foundation.
Rob Reiner at the end.

The next video I gave a try was shot down by both of us within the first minute, so I will not mention it.

I then tuned in Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. ─ episode nine ["Collision Course (Part II)"] of season six.

That was followed by a 10-minute (10:19) video published February 6, 2022, to BitChute's ittabena channel: Shelby Foote Interview 2002.

Our second-to-last video was Yonderland ─ the premier episode ("The Chosen Mum"). I had previously downloaded the episode some months ago, so I cannot now say what my source was; however, it is presently available at this uFLIX.to link.

The last video we watched was Blue Mountain State ─ the premier episode ("It's Called Hazing, Look It Up"). I had already watched it ─ I've seen the first seven episodes; I only tuned this episode in for my brother's sake.

He went for further bed rest when the show was done. I fixed up my day's first meal, and ate that here at my bedside computer. I think that it was at least 1:30 p.m. before I returned to bed for a needed nap. When I rose something over an hour later, my brother was still home, but he soon enough left Bev and set off for a bus to go social drinking.

My wife had a full workday today at the Thai restaurant where she is employed part-time, and emerged from her bedroom as usual (shortly after 9:30 a.m.), and was away on her quite long sunny drive something over a half hour later.

The day has been mostly sunny, and all afternoon I have had a chilly breeze coming through my open bedroom window. I am hoping to be getting up at 3 a.m. for some exercise at the relatively nearby elementary school playground ─ I doubt I will have to be concerned of any rain. But frost? I wonder.

I've had some light exercise this latter afternoon in my wife's vacant bedroom. Right now at 6:39 p.m. I am going to grab together a three-fruit light supper and then watch a couple of shows here on my bedside computer while enjoying two cans of Cariboo Malt (7.9% alcohol). It must not be a late evening by any measure!

My first selection was The 100 ─ episode six ("Memento Mori") of season six. My source was this GOOJARA.to link.

The episode was good, but not outstanding. I was not getting fuelled with the derring-do I am confident the present season is capable of.

I suppose it ended by around 7:40 p.m., and Bev still seemed alone downstairs. However, my brother did show up before I commenced my second and final show.

I think this series consistently inspires me more than anything I presently watch.

The show was Titans ─ the premier episode ("Trigon") of the second season. My source was this RidoMovies.tv link.

Everything about Minka Kelly soothes me to the depths of whatever I am ─ I cannot believe that a genuine angel could have any greater effect. And I hope the actress never reads this, for it places a monstrous burden upon the poor woman.

As for the episode, I was so damned relieved when the Satan-figure "Trigon" was dispatched well before the episode's conclusion. I fully expected that this being was going to be one of comicbookdom's dreary long story arcs. That Marvel wiped him out this smartly is outstanding.

I confess that the young cocky Robin replacement character has grown on me ─ I like the guy!

The episode made me emotional and I even did what little I am able to do by way of reaching out psychically or however it is done to whatever is God the Creator.

I despise evil beyond explaining. Even in me. I do believe that evil beings ─ even people ─ and those who stand with or do their bidding, deserve to be killed.

And so has gone the effects of a second can of beer.

Enough for today. It is 9:55 p.m. and I must start finishing up whatever I have going on here on my computer and get to bed for 3 .m.'s early rise.
