I’m having a nice cup of tea. Then I’ll have some aniseed suspended Gaviscon. Doctor Adamova prescribed it and I’m still feeling a bit coughy and bilious so I’ll drink up my chalk like a good little patient.
I’ve got my prescription note by Rawaz which reminds me of the quantities. Tomorrow morning I’m gonna start on the omeprazole just as it should be helpful for me to settle things now the worry is gone.
I can never understand the whole business that is growing so fast in the west of blaming all our problems on people who don’t look like us or had wildly different childhoods. All you need to do is go into a hospital to see the advantages, and if you think they’re taking jobs from good proper English Englandpeople from England then just wait until you get one of the English plumbers to fix your pipes or deliver an oven from Currys. Nobody workshy is left in the NHS. There’s nothing for them. The whole thing was supposed to fall flat a few years ago when the Tories did everything they could to collapse it so the wedge of paid healthcare could be driven in from America. The less we have to do with that place these days the better though sadly. The Jimmy Kimmel thing was closer to an open dictator thing than we’ve seen thus far, and there’s no way it’ll stop there. Twenty years from now there will be cautionary tales taught in schools, and people will tell you “I always knew he was a baddie”. Right now though, too many people have either persuaded themselves they are powerless or they’ve drunk the Kool Ade.
I’m just gonna have a nice time and prepare to do stupid fun shit with Amy dressed up as a Panda. Today has been admin-tastic. I barely left the house. The cats are bored of me. Tomorrow more of the same, and learning stuff. It’s a quiet time. My friends are either despairing of ever working again or they’ve just booked a massive job. Most of them the former. It’ll get better, art is needed when the world gets nasty, but it isn’t valued because it holds a mirror up, and when you get sucked up in hateful rhetoric and demagoguery it’s about how you feel and what you want. You mustn’t have perspective on what you look like, because it’s a nasty spoilt scared angry kid. Have a look at what Kimmel said, that got him suspended. It’s innocuous. It’s not even rude. It’s largely an observation of what is happening.
Terrifying. What is going to happen to America in the short term? I dread to think.
So yeah I’ll just stroke the cats, sing to myself, have a nice cup of tea.
