Relief day, Wednesday 25 March, 2020. Even the Magpies know it!
It’s been exactly two weeks (Wednesday, 11 March, 2020) since doomsday. That was the day “When The World Stops”, according to Time magazine’s “Special Report: COVID-19” (vol.195.no 11.2020). Errg.
My mood
has never been this high (8.5 on my mood scale), since I can’t remember when.
Why? you might ask, when the world (the planet?) is coming to an abrupt stop?
Because it’s not.
Trump
has got this. That’s why we (who is “we”?) elected him. Because he is almost magical, unbelievable, when it comes to managing disaster. (See page 300 of Election 2016.)
The Magpie
is a most illustrious bird. And, they are getting together in their unique Tree Branch meet-up, to talk about what happens next?
They are hopeful, carry on, and don’t really give a shit about us.
Election 2016, is my fifth book. Like the others it deals with the intersection of politics and personality. This blog addresses the overall wellbeing of the personal and political. From a unique psychological, evolutionary, and personal perspective it combines history, geography, and fiction in an attempt to get close to reality.
Regarding Myers-Briggs I score as ESTJ, Thinking being the highest score. The type is labeled, Executive. All of that makes sense considering my life's history. But there have been problems. Due to the fact I'm a freedom-loving freak - for you as well as me. I'm no boss.
I love honesty & independence and hate sloth & pretension. But, suit yourself.
Regarding OCEAN, I score highest on Openness and lowest on Agreeableness - which agrees with Myers-Briggs.
My writing is experimental - meaning it is not formulaic, or, not for mass consumption. Warning: Read at your own risk.
