Here Are The Scissors
In March of 2020 I had $50 left to my name after I lost my job without a glance into the future of my finances and bought 3 weeks worth of groceries. The last $50 I had went to Blick. I purchased a large linocut, one tub of white speedball fabric ink, a rubber brayer, and a linoleum carving tool. I had the intentions of using said tools with some leftover fabric scraps to make patches to sell on the internet to get by. I carved a small alligator on a skateboard and made only one print. I didn't realize it at the time, but all of my stay at home interests came to a halt about a week after I made that one print.

A different kind of child
Many people say that things were different in their times. That can be true more for some, than it can for others. I come from an racial background. As a child, I saw it as half accepted, and half rejected. There were a large horde of people who didn’t like me, purely based on my color. There were even more, however, who didn’t accept me because of my social standing in the economy. Basically, we were dirt poor. However, I was happy and loved. So fuck what they think.

A Fabled Connection
Stories make us who we are. From the time I was little, way back in the 1970's, my heart and mind were captured by stories, fables, and fairy tales. I was not a healthy child and my world was very small. There were not a lot of humans in my life and few good adults. But there was an endless supply of stories, legends, anecdotes.

Jack of all trades and master of none
This proverb aptly describes me. A dabbler, dilettante, an amateur, call me whatever you want but the fact of the matter is that so far I had taken pride in being a jack of all fields and had not cared to be a master of any one field.

Treating Myself with Vocal Earnings
Imagine my surprise when I got an email telling me, "You've received a $50.00 tip from Vocal!" Who the hell liked one of my articles enough to put such a large tip up? Well, turns out I've hit the big five-o. Combining that with the other tips and earnings I've made over the course of three years . . . suddenly, I was well over the limit to withdraw money from my wallet. I've had a couple of plans for what I could buy if I ever won a Challenge (which I'm . . . not any closer to doing, but hey whatever) and suddenly I had a little pocket change to see at least two of those dreams through.

Avoid People, Avoid Problems (Remote Work, A.I., Newbie Culture, and Workplace Disaster Avoidance)
I've long been a misanthrope, and the events of 2020-2021 seem to only validate my hatreds and suspicions further. Still, I don't wish to be a simpleminded people-basher. There is somewhat of an opportunity to broaden my horizons through moderate misanthropy, maybe even making it work for people rather than against them. In fact, I think my misanthropic views might provide valuable insights into improving the workplace (such as it is). How's that for a bold concept?

Three cheers for the early morning 4 o'clock
In a poem, the Polish poetess Szymborska said, "No one feels comfortable at 4:00 in the morning." Yes, for example, I rarely get up at this time, I am either sound asleep or I have stayed up late and just fallen asleep; only people who have special things to do will wake up at 4 a.m., but that feeling must not be soothing enough. I rarely watch online sports channels, but recently I overheard a reporter on such a channel ask "basketball genius" Kobe Bryant: "How did you become so successful?" Kobe asked back, "Do you know what it's like in Los Angeles every morning at 4 o'clock?" That statement intrigued me, and I wondered what 4 a.m. in Los Angeles could have to do with a person's success. In fact, even the diligent and dedicated reporter did not know what Los Angeles was like at 4 a.m. Kobe asked himself, "A sky full of stars, few lights, and few pedestrians. I'm not really sure what it's like. But it doesn't matter. Do you think so? Every morning at 4 a.m., with Los Angeles still in the dark, I get up and walk the dark streets of Los Angeles ......"

Does the Equality Act help disabled people in Employment?
In 2010 the Equality Act replaced the Disability Discrimination Act 1995. The Equality Act is to cover more areas of an individuals life not just employment like the Disability Discrimination Act did previously. One of my main concerns is how several different minority legislation's have been lumped into one and that this is meant to be sufficient, won't this make the current Act less flexible? limiting those who are seen as having a disability as not all individuals fit nicely into a category of impairment. So does the Equality Act work?
