Surviving the Felon: Week of 04/26/2025
I’m back with another instalment of Surviving the Felon. And its been a rough week for me. After the excitement of going out of town and visiting family, I came back to even more insane actions by The Felon. And as I returned to Florida, I fell down a deep rabbit hole learning about Heeled Shoes and a scam he is looking to get away with involving Medicare.
Social Media is fighting to break me and in moments of weakness I have had mini melt downs. I’m fighting hard for my happiness right now and I hope all of you reading this are finding your smiles and light. As we move closer to May, I need something new to find some hope. My current energy is waning, and I don’t want to let Depression in.
I’ll be fighting for my happiness this upcoming week. And I sometimes need to remind myself about the good in the world since its all too easy to ignore it. Even then, I understand that I’ll have ups and downs. Perhaps I should be thankful that I have the tools to weather a bad week. Years ago I did not have such a privilege.
The Bad
While the news tries to control what we are worried about, don’t forget to learn more about the Heritage Foundation, Peter Thiel, and Curtis Yarvin. These are our real enemies, alongside The Window Shover of course. I’m putting this at the start of The Bad Section because I feel like this is by far the most important thing to get out of the negative.
I’m not in the best of moods and I’m tempted to skip this section this week, but I can’t ignore the problems going on in the world. Not when the Autism Registry directly poses a threat to me. Anyone who has seen a history book knows where this will probably lead. And I’m morbidly curious to know if I’ll be wearing a blue puzzle piece in the near future as a result of these Nazis and their eugenics aims.
In other horrible news, ICE is now threatening and arresting judges that oppose The Felon. I shouldn’t be surprised that a man who has made his entire life revolve around scamming people and committing crime without consequence would have issue with people trying to hold his goons accountable. Oh and for those of you who might be reading this thinking that its ok if “they are illegal” do not forget that it is very easy to have your rights taken away and be considered illegal. Just ask Jewish survivors of the Holocaust. And do it quickly because there are not that many left.
Protect your loved ones. And don’t forget that if a law is unjust, and breaking that law would be moral, don’t hesitate. The Felon is making up laws on a whim and ignoring the constitution. Do not feel the need to bind yourself to a document our government ignores.
The Good
Well we got that out of the way. And I think its best that I focus on the good for a moment to try and drag my brain away from the fear of just everything happening. I want to start with being thankful that protests over The Felon’s actions continue. One of the judges has been released and that is alone cause for celebration. And The Nazi continues to lose money and talking about going back into the shadows again. I hope he regrets everything he did for the rest of his pathetic life.
I’m also relieved as I watch factions of the far right start to fracture. Right now fear of retaliation is what is holding them together. May one of them overstep and set off the metaphorical mine field that is sitting between each other. I’ll have popcorn ready to watch them crash and burn each other. You should get some too.
Another cause for excitement is China shoving the Felon enough that he backed down. I knew China had it in them to push back. Their entire culture has been abused by European and American aggression in the past. And now that they have more power than during the imperial era its refreshing to see them stand their ground. I never thought I would live in a time where I’m rooting for China. But The Felon and his cronies are rooting for Russia and it makes me wonder if the Red Scare existed for a much more sinister purpose.
Transition
Well we had a look at some of the good and bad happening this week. There is far too much going on both here in the United States and around the world for me to document all of it. Oh and journalism is being replaced slowly by VI anyway so its not worth my effort to essentially kill myself reading over everything. Certainly not when those very articles are contributing to issues with my mental health.
Anyway, as usual its time to pivot towards what I found joy in this past week. As my depression waves its ugly head its more important than ever that I find things to make me smile. I’ll need constant reminders that there is good in the world as I pull myself out of the dark cave my mind is wandering in. But I know I can do it. Each time I have fought against Depression my mind has won out. I’ll win this time too.
Video Games
A lot of my free time has been spent on video games. It serves as an escape from all the horrible things going on. Not a majority this time, but I did spend a lot of time on Eldin Ring. After beating the game on one character, I’m working on getting another one through the final couple areas. I still have the DLC to beat and I’m deciding which character I want to take that journey with before I commit to that part of the game.
I’m back in Florida and that means I have access to my PlayStation again. And the current story is directing me to kill my favorite faction to fight in Helldivers 2 so naturally I have spent some time on that game. I’m overcoming my fear of playing multiplayer games with randoms one mission at a time. And its a healthy thing for me to overcome.
A majority of my video game time this week was spent Genshin Impact. Once more I have it on right now and am more than halfway through exploring the volcano in Natlan. I honestly should have finished the story quest by now given how much Dragon lore is contained within it. But I find Genshin to be most fun when I don’t do everything all at once.
I added one other game to the pile as the book I’m writing currently is essentially a love letter to it. That game is Tales of Symphonia and not only are the themes in the game relevant today more than ever, but its a look back at one of the most positive parts of my teenage years.
Pokémon Go
This week one of the greatest casualties of Depression having an influence on my choices was not going on a Pokémon Go walk. And that is a shame cause its quite possibly my number one weapon against feeling like crap. It should be no surprise that my brain works to stop me from enjoying my day. Which is why I need to fight those thoughts and next time make sure I go on a walk. I know I’ll feel better afterwards.
Also I have the results of that Tinkaton and for now at least, I’m putting that team on the backburner. Better luck when others who are much better at the game can help me figure out how to run it better. For now I’m struggling in Great League again where I’m at a tier where the teams are unpredictable. Maybe its that time in the season to pivot to stardust farming and give up on Veteran Rank once more.
Anime and Shows
I am caught up on Fire Force for the week. Its a battle shonen anime and sometimes you get a week of seemingly filler fights just because the action is the entire purpose of the show. But I’m more eager to understand what’s going on in the setting and I think it will be a few more weeks before I get those answers.
I got a bit further into Thriller Bark, but I really need to set some time aside to binge One Piece. I’m past the parts where the show slogs and I really have no reason to not just go all full speed ahead on the show. I’m almost 400 episodes in so its not like I’m still at the beginning.
Wheel of Time was exceptional this season. I’m all caught up on it and am willing to risk seeing tons of negative news and press on unrelated topics just for a chance to hear if we will get a season 4. I’m really hoping so because now that I have seen them do things right, we are approaching one of my favorite books in the entire series and I’ll bet that season 4 will adapt that book.
Dungeons & Dragons
This week I was back to form with my Dungeons & Dragons Campaign. And while I did not go on a hike, I did manage to write a blog post about the session. I still need to run the other side of the story and see what happens there. But this arc in the Feywild has been one of my favorites and its helping me understand how to write Fairies as characters.
Writing and Editing
This week was a whole lot of writing but essentially no editing. have been focused completely on writing my Search for Eden 5 Novel. May is approaching and unlike NaNoWriMo the event I’m participating in does not end when that month starts. In fact it continues for a whole week into the next month. I’m excited to see how much more progress I can make in a novel that I have dreamed of writing since I was young.
I added another 9989 more words not including this blog post and the others also documenting this word count. That brings my total up to 38,388 which honestly is a pleasing number to look at.
But don’t worry, I’ll be getting back to editing soon too. I just need to look through a few parts and figure out what to have my editor look at. After making several recommended changes, an entire section he already looked at is basically another book. Part of me is wondering if I should just let him look at that same part again.
Reading
If you have been reading this blog at all for the past few weeks, you should know what I was reading already. And if you have not, you have a chance to cheat and check before I give the answer. Ok done cheating yet? Good. Yep I read more Tower of God. And there is a spin off series coming out soon to give me even more to read considering I’m almost caught up on the Manhwa.
Wrap Up
Well its been a long week and I have been fighting my own brain just so I have energy to help fight against The Felon. As more and more acts of Terrorism happen by his command, it will be that much more important to defy him and his cronies. And make no mistake as I say these words that could put me on their radar: The Felon is a Terrorist. He has no right to use that label to harm innocent people.
Things are growing even more bleak each week. And its been only three months into a four year term. That is of course assuming its only four years. The Felon has no problem ignoring the Constitution so what’s defying another amendment to be dictator for the rest of his life?
But his cronies all live and die by his cult following. And so it stands for the sane and rational people of the world to stand against The Felon. If we can defy him enough to the point where he falls off his throne, we may be able to deal with all of them at once. And so we must stay strong and fight him with our hearts beating as one. May our love and light for one another sear his and the flesh of all the other Vampires at his beck and call.
Let’s all Survive the Felon together. Our communities are depending on each of us to do our part to end this Nazi Nightmare and cosign it to history books as a horrific time that did not last. We have beaten Nazis before. Let’s do it again.
Oh and here is another picture of my cat. He has no idea I took this photo.
