The Wired World: Human or Not?
Nobody Wonders
The other day, I was watching a video where Elon Musk said that he thought there were too many old people in government. Yes, I agree. Biden is senile, and these people stay in their positions mostly because they are making SO much money, and their families are also getting rich. Do you think they really want to give up? No way, so Congress has put its job, onto various departments created by them, and they can stay in office forever because they don’t make the laws anymore: And so, they can’t be blamed when an unpopular one passes.

They pass it on to various departments. This was not the idea of the founders. Congress was sent to serve and go back home. Now they stay forever and become multimillionaires. This war in Ukraine is making them all rich, because they can do insider trading.
Very clever, but they are destroying the very country they serve. They don’t care, they have mansions on islands around the world.
The populations of the West are old. Japan’s population is old. China had a policy of one child per couple for years, and so the young girl babies were destroyed and now they are sending those excess male military age men over our borders. China controls our ‘President’ Biden so that’s not a good thing. Biden is handing our country over to them.

Today, I was watching the APPLE launch of its new vision pro headset. They had an older lady talking about how she had ALL the Apple products ever made, and she was very excited to get her new ones. Some of the old people have a lot of time on their hands, being retired. But some of us, don’t. I started out on Gates’s 3.1 computer and by the time I learned that one, bought a book of instruction and FOUND the time to read it, it was already replaced. ($5,299.00)
That’s, of course how these people get so rich. Tech improves, even if it’s only more pixels on your camera, and then you fork out thousands for the new iPhone, or IPAD, or whatever and they have you hooked for your life.
Then there are those of us who remember that you didn’t HAVE to carry your phone everywhere. If you got in trouble, you went to the nearest phone booth.
Life was simply. More enjoyable. Less stress. Now, I realize that the world will all be digitized…We will live more and more in our cocoons, never walking, always wired up, addicted to the latest tech…but some of us are going…what?
What happened to “life?” The joy of talking to someone ON THE PHONE, hearing their voice, instead of ‘texting” The sound of the human voice? Will that disappear? Well, you can NOW see their picture and talk to them too?
Okay. That’s good. But what if I don’t want you to see me? What if I just got out of the shower and I’m not dressed…uh…the older generation is having trouble with this. The younger ones: nope. They have been online since they were kids.
So— Houston, there is a bit of a problem here. Tech is going so fast, in a few months even the 30-year-olds won’t be able to keep up.
Sure, the car was a miracle, the plane, the electric grid, the phone, all this tech made all our lives easier, but now, it takes hours out of your day just to do what you need to do online. And frankly, I’d rather learn something new on my piano.
And when it goes down? What then? EVERYTHING is plugged into it.
Have they thought this out?
They don’t care, because it’s a good chance that it can all disappear in a flash.
So, Elon may be right. People like him should be running things because they can get the tech in right away…the older people, they would just walk out and say “Screw it, I’m tired of dealing with it.”
They’d run out to their porch and watch the sunset.

Yes, there is a problem. Maybe that’s why they want to ‘kill’ off the old. I’ve taken care of my diapered parents. Watch their brains wither away. It was hard work, but I would have done it again.
Tech will be ruthless in getting rid of them.
Families as we know will disappear.
“To each to his ability” will be the communist norm.
And do they care? Was the atomic bomb the answer to everything? Nuclear energy is a good thing, but it wasn’t in Japan now, was it?
We need leaders who will keep us free as well as protected against the dangers of the coming tech revolution, for it will be more dangerous, as Elon said than the nuclear war.
And so…it begins…the dawn of the non…human.
Frankly, I’m going to try to stay as human as possible until I die.
And the young, won’t miss me when I go. They will be on the Moon, playing video games and eating fake meat. So, tomorrow in celebration of the New World, I’m having REAL chicken for dinner.
Happy New Year! Plungers and Roses

Nobody Wonders
Here’s one last post for 2023:
I got a call from an old friend today. She moved away some ten years ago, and now lives by a river in Tennessee. It’s always good to hear from the people you know, who except for who you were and who you are now.
We started talking about her health and then she said this:
“The strangest thing happened to me a month ago, and I’m having these strange things happen all the time.”
“What? Tell me’ I said.
“Well, you might think I’m nuts…it’s kind of gross.”
You see my friend and her husband lived on a houseboat, and one day, the toilet stopped up pretty bad, right up to the top. Houseboats have different sewage systems as you know.
She said she called her husband, because they did NOT have a plunger. She was in a panic because of being on a boat. If it spilled over, it would be a big mess. He was supposed to go out and buy one, but for some reason, he came home instead. He looked around the boat for something, and then, looked OVER the side of the boat as the river was running by, and there it was.
A plunger. Floating right by her husband, and he reached over and picked it up.
“WHAT ARE THE ODDS?” she exclaimed. “I was wishing for a plunger and there it was, right out of the river.”
Then she went on. She said one day, she wanted a single rose. Not sure why, she didn’t say, but then she said, “Guess what?”
“A one stem rose went right by the side of the boat. I picked it up. I did not do anything but WISH for it.” She spoke.
But she knew, I believed her. I told her of all my coincidences and we got pretty excited, about how the universe can just HAND you something that you truly wish…in your heart. In your mind. It’s happened to both of us. I guess it was like the phone call that comes out of the blue when you are thinking of that person, but haven’t talked to them in a long time. Like this friend of mine. She NEVER calls me. Ever. I really needed to talk to someone as I was feeling a bit lonely. Her call was all I needed…
Because you see this morning, I was listening to Glenn Beck talk about the possibility of a Nuclear War, the power of A.I. and how real it was, and then we watched a movie on Netflick, another DISASTER movie. You know one of those “you will own nothing” movies which are shown on every cable movie station? Hour after hour. Humanity is killed, etc. It’s like you are being buttered up for hopelessness. I didn’t feel particularly good after that, so yeah, my friend’s phone call was perfect timing.
This afternoon, my husband and I took one of those horse bouncing toys that kids used to get in the 1950’s, to a neighbor’s house. It’s a young couple with a really cute little boy. I had saved that horse for over 35 years. I bought it for my son, who never touched it, (Any kind of ball were his thing) and I’d had hoped for a grandchild, but that seems to be lost forever. SO…I could sell it on eBay, but why?
We gave it to the young boy…who was happy to have such a big, brand-new toy.
What did I get out of all of this? Maybe that, somewhere, somehow, in the vast empty space and time, there is a power that comes to those when they need it the most. I’ve written a few blogs about this. It’s like “When you wish upon a star” magic.
My friend needed a plunger.
Our neighbors needed a wonderful toy that they probably couldn’t have afforded.
I needed someone to save me from suicide that long dark day so long ago. (Earlier blog)
So, I’m thinking. The world is such a mess. Evil is growing everywhere. Maybe- maybe if enough of us just WISH deep in our hearts that healing comes, the evil men trying to make us all slaves to their visions of utopia for themselves, MAYBE if enough of us just desire and want that to happen, deep in our hearts, maybe by some miracle, it will.
Jesus came once upon a time, and saved the world with kindness and wisdom. He was a miracle.
Maybe…this time around…we will get…HOPE. The hope we need, because God knows, they are trying to fill us ALL with hopelessness.
Before we got off the phone, my friend kept laughing after the discussion and said,
“I SHOULD have wished to win the Lottery instead of a plunger.” And she laughed.
This Nobody has a feeling that, this strange force beyond all reasoning knows EXACLY what you need…and what’s best for you.
You might not understand it, but some people call that ‘god.’ Some call it luck.
I call it the essence of universal love from the universe itself.
Nobody Wonders…about that the most. And will we ever figure it out?
Nobody Knows.
Everybody have a safe and Happy New Year…Let’s all ‘wish’ for the best…Okay? Right.
