Yeah this whole thing is nuts. If that one guy gets more electoral votes then that is good, but it still means half this country are racist shitbags that want to kill people w/o consequence. Sure there are people who would object to that absolutely polarizing statement but they are probably selfish thugs or totally unaware of their racists white privilege. even if they aren't white.
ok - got that out of my head.
Bridge the gap, fix what's broken. I got in trouble for lamenting the fact that the Sars-COV2 stuff is only now just hitting all the "red" states, now that the healthcare system has figured out how to better manage the disease and how to reduce mortality. There are a chaotic number of variables involved but I feel there is enough truth to that statement to let it stand. And yeah no, i shouldn't wish ill on people to stupid to wear a mask or believe that not wearing a mask during the pandemic is their right and that they'll be fine and that no matter what anyone says it is still just a hoax and that friend or family member that got sick or died from it really actually succumbed to something else. Bill Burr's thing there - not smart enough to wear a mask? Then you deserve what you bring to your family.
Sounds kind of harsh no? I guess I'm getting old and tired of being hopeful.
So anyway this reset?
last night I just haven't been feeling any of the shows and i'm kind of getting tired of space opera and uncomfortable situations that eventually resolve themselves in the story. And I haven't found something I want to actually read in a while either. Movies? Not finding anything their either that I want to invest the time in sitting and looking at.
And yeah here's an admission, we have prime, and so I went there on the tablet, and searched Mountain biking.
And watched the first two hits back to back.
And it was awesome. The second film was annoying but the footage easily made up for it. Now these might have been on rotation back in free movie days in the pandemic. I think I missed the screening of the second one then. And I def didn't see the first one.
But watching them sort of re-aligned the brain. And yesterday I think maybe it hit me that I am actually missing Cyclocross. The friends, the racing, the driving, the cider donuts at Bolton Orchards. The preparation the half assed thinking about maybe training, or at least attempting to start to make a plan to do some training.
But bike yo? BIKES.
So the films:

Sure it was a little bit of time to spend not moving, but after a day of doing nothing but that, not moving felt needed. And then the best part is I actually was able to sleep well and while i woke up too early and am still tired from the last week of shitty sleep, it was more of a fall asleep than a lay in bed till my system crashed and sleep.
Funny tho, how watching some crazy MTB shit kind of pulled the reset. Now I want to ride. More than just to work. In the woods. Out west or something. Or somewhere new maybe.
But the reset was good. And now I'm ignoring extra stuff and writing about it. But getting this out of my head will let me focus more productively on the next task.
yeah i made the first part less visible not that it helps but that level of harsh makes me feel a bit uncomfortable with it out there.
