The Cost Of Moving To A Hybrid Vehicle From Traditional Gas Powered

  Something Slightly different today. I was looking into selling my paid for Ford for a Hybrid Electric that gets Average 45 miles to the gallon. Doing some math between how much I drive a year and what the delta would be between what I get now for mileage(not great) to what I would get for mileage per gallon, the cost of fuel, say 4.65 a gallon. And the up front cash to trade old vehicle and replace it with a hybrid. The projected point at which I would cross the threshold of where the hybrid would start saving me money would be 8-15 years, median being 11.5 years. Now think about this.. a hybrid (has a giant battery, but also runs on gas), would probably have that battery need to be replaced once or twice AND it is likely the electric motor is gonna have a problem too. Maybe need replaced and in 11 years…everything will be different. Like who knows what kind cars will be available. Full solar maybe..fusion…cool who knows. So what is the savings? Nothing really. Now..if I were to ...

A Theory Why Organized Religion Is Scared Of Transgender People

 A Theory Why Organized Religion Is Scared Of Transgender People Theory: Right Wing Christian Nationalist (RWCN) and supporters of it, are scared of, and have much fear  when it comes to free Thinking People and Transgender Women and Men are Free Thinkers. The Idea.  It is a known FACT that the strategy of the church is to get them young, brainwashing happens while the brain is at its most flexibly and open state (young). This is called Indoctrination And also called brain washing. So the idea is the church has "Sunday SCHOOL" in which they gather the children and teach stories as FACTS...sigh.  The reason they do this is so that they can build legions of non free thinkers. Sheeple, the flock, people who will blindly follow commands in the name of a "deity" and do what ever is told of them. If they say minority group X is bad and should be banned, their rights removed, their existence made unlawful then there it goes .... grab the torch and lets burn the witch. ( Se...

Organized Religion Is A Cage - RWCN - Right Wing Christian Nationism

  Organized Religion is a cage.  A cage used to control and direct people to do biddings and explain what people don't understand.  The Salem witch trials are a great example of this.  To Sum what happened. There was a town full of very religious puritan people. with STRICT hierarchy of importance with Men at the top and women at the bottom. These people also kept women slaves. 11 year old girls. Just all round good people (sarcasm). So what happens is winter comes and ..people start getting sick and don't get better. The leadership can't fix it. What to do??? They can't explain i!!!, they are looking silly.. So... it  must be SATAN! The DEVIL! To address the problem they start accusing people, First to go was a slave woman, she was tortured repeatedly for the truth, they tried to beat a confession out of her. Eventually she caved and pointed at another worman, so they did same to her. escallating the violence to confession, and when the women wouldn't confess, ...

Loneliness And The Universe

Being alone is not the same as loneliness.  I would rather be alone than sell my identity, diminish my light or compromise myself ever again. But there is a cost to being alone. Human Touch is powerful, healing and soothing. I haven't been with anyone in a very long time.  There have been days where I wake up and wonder what is the point. If I were too disappear, the universe would go on, the neighbors would continue about their daily lives, the sun, would rise and fall and nobody would give a @#% except maybe my kids. And that is as good as it gets. I realized that death is like going to surgery. They turn out the lights and you don't know the lights are out. You are at peace. And I wonder sometimes how nice that would be. no pain, no feeling. truly peace.  And...I don't think thats a crazy thought, but a real one. An honest one. One where I look around, realize my life is 5 days of work, 2 days of rest, repeat. And I live in a world where my government hates me and I li...

Why Christian Nationalism, Religious Zealotry Is Rotten

Image
  Today is the 4th of July, 2026 in a country that is under siege by those who would disguise their bad intent with things like "greatness" or "return to normalcy."  In Texas they have decided to allow teaching religion in schools. Think about that. Our countries prinicple of "Separation of church and state", that religion is not taxed for the same reason, as the two being separate. Is now gone.  The place that once was a melting pot of all ideas, cultures, religions, languages is now being pushed to not only be christian only, but TAUGHT in public tax payer...paid for by working peoples taxes. I've talked much about the growing fascism, Right Wing Christian Nationalism (AND to be real...MORMON Nationalism). And it is happening as this is being written. The defenders or the Right Wing Fascist movement are miss-guided. The MAGA base, the radicalized Religious base has it wrong but many refuse to even look at or think about whether they are wrong.  So I ...

The Scare, Fear What Is the Purpose Of Oppression Of Transgender People?

We have seen it over and over again, anyone that studies history, any history will see it. Governments, leadership, Organizations, usually RELIGIOUS organizations trying to steer and control people. Defining what can and can't be done.  AND!!! There's a pattern that shows up again and again when governments and religious institutions decide a group of people has gotten too free, too visible, or too inconvenient to the order they want to maintain. It doesn't look the same every time on the surface — sometimes it's a law, sometimes it's a sermon, sometimes it's a school board meeting — but underneath, it's the same five moves, in the same order, every time: Name a threat. Frame the group's existence as dangerous — to children, to "natural order," to the family, to bathrooms, to sports, to the nation itself. Recruit authority. Bring in Pseudo science, scripture, or "tradition" to make the fear sound objective, "real" instea...

Social Challenges Of Older Transgender People

 Ageism is a thing.....Dismissive, Sinister, Covert... and it is everywhere. This blog is about what it means to be Older and Transgender and the unique challenges that those people face. First a comment I have seen on Transgender forums by other Younger Transgender people What is the point? I've had younger people say things: "Whats the point?" and "You might as well not..."  *Sigh* this is about as cruel and rotten as it gets. It is a form of ageism, discrimination and honestly a form of HATE of those that don't fit into the club.  I would say this to those transgender people whoo think and say things like this. You are shallow, conceited and you are being exclusive in a minority group that literally has a month called PRIDE that is about being inclusive.  I also want to point out that saying something like that tells me you might not be transgender. Cause to say something like that means you are not dealing with the same Dysphoria the Same problems that m...
