Over Covid the local gym changed ownership and they invested money into new machines, cleaning, painting and totally restoring the place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today way my second day there but it seems pretty nice. A very different vibe from what it was in the past. I wonder — what sets a vibe? I wonder if there is one person – just one, who puts in the most energy and is like: here it is: THE VIBE. Idk, I like how they play relaxing music and it’s all very relaxing. There is a diverse group at the gym but they are minding their own business, not a clique or ‘mean girls’ group. Walking and weights seem to be the most popular exercises when I’ve gone. I am working on upper body and then I’ve done some elliptical. Just driving for me is a pretty big deal, for the last two years I’ve barely left my house. I just haven’t had the health to do much. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other news<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every news headline lately is about abortion. It’s a little weird.
It seems like they don’t want to talk about other world events that might not be going well.
It’s very frightening how much control the news has over people.
If the news told them, ‘go kill this group! or that group!’ <– I think they would.
Living a life in a reactionary bubble mind set doesn’t seem too lead to personal fulfillment but uh’ I’m not smart, I’m just avoiding the latest panic I guess. People seem to enjoy hating others… I mean, they seem really invested in hating people right now, and being self-righteous and pointing fingers. It feels out of control. Dangerous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Possibly Invasion of the Body Snatchers was a documentary. \ud83d\ude42 )<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve watched a little of the Johnny Depp \/ Amber Heard defamation trial. I grew up with Johnny Depp, but I wonder if for today’s younger folks it’s like my Mom carrying on about that Charleston Heston guy, i.e. dated and maybe they don’t know really too much about him other than Captain Jack Sparrow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At first I was team Depp, particularly because Ms.Heard’s lawyers are so damn bad. But after hearing her testimony I reflected that with a 30 year age gap, millions of dollars, and fame — I doubt she she had much over on Mr. Depp. She tried to act innocent while talking about drugs, drugs, alcohol, drugs, and violence. What a fucking mess of a relationship. It sounds really toxic. I don’t know that their case should have gone to trial. Most of us have had at least one relationship we never revisit or even admit to ourselves or others. Maybe they should have put that marriage in the dust bin and moved on without acknowledging it ever existed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He probably needs to ditch some of those drugs and give up the booze if he wants his career to flourish again, idk, that seems like the root issue. *shrug* <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyway, I’m working again towards my goals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

My GI is an absolute mess, and although B12 helps me out, the swelling in my thyroid became intense so I had to cut it out. I’ll just take it once a week now and hopefully that will cover things. Last time I tried to supplement B12 I had the same thyroid issue. I can’t find that documented anywhere. My abdomen hurts none stop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
