Fuck It Friday (FIF)! Sporadic news and commentary of no interest to anyone ... FIF! The same ol’ shit is the primary focus of this edition. Yes, this is Fuck It Friday!
Tropical Storm Calvin apparently “petered out” before its slated arrival on Wednesday. Very light precipitation in the evening was the outcome. Apparently, the dolts who comprise the residents on the island engaged in a frantic shopping spree for essential goods. So, stocks of products such as bottled water were depleted. Fuck it!
Google® apparently has a policy in place which automatically terminates user accounts that have been inactive for two years. Thus, the old “blog” and Notes will cease to exist two years after the proprietor of both is either incapacitated or deceased. So much for legacy. Fuck it!

| Chevrolet® Corvette Stingray |
The miserly ways continue to be an irritant. Even if the miserly ways were immediately abandoned, there’s just nothing to purchase that will adequately deplete the personal life savings. There was some foolish thinking about purchasing an automobile such as the new mid-engine Chevrolet® Corvette Stingray (i.e., poor man’s sports car) and keeping it for two years (until driver’s license expires). Of course, the latter nonsense invokes the stereotype of the old codger attempting to seek lost youth. So, fuck it!
A haircut was attained today, three days earlier than usual, at the Institute of Hair Design. Two weeks is now too long between haircuts. The hair is still somewhat short, but annoying nonetheless. So, in defiance of the miserly ways, haircuts will now be scheduled on a whim. Fuck it!
The transition to fruits, usually two bananas, for the evening dessert has been completed. So, granola and other carbohydrate snacks have been gradually phased out. Adjusting to the new snacks was slightly difficult, but not impossible. Fuck it!
The colon cancer screening (fecal occult) sample that was submitted a few weeks ago was apparently not processed. A convoluted explanation (read: “things fall apart”) was given. A new test kit is supposedly being dispatched. Fuck it!
The option to switch from the basic plan to Visible+ for $35 per month (after $10 continuous discount) expires at the end of September. Barring the propensity to yield to the miserly ways, the switch may occur. However, most of the premium features are not available in Hawai’i. In addition, there have been clever mitigations employed to circumvent the current shortcomings of the basic plan. Well, fuck it!
ProtonVPN is now being deployed on a regular basis when using free wireless networks. The virtual private network (VPN) is perfect for bypassing the restrictive firewalls (read: censorship platforms). VPNs are also excellent in preventing data collection by cellular service providers. Fuck it!
The bus service in the afternoon on weekdays has been extremely unpredictable as of late. In fact, there really is no schedule. The only reliable method to know the actual arrival of a bus is the use of the on-line tracking site. Yeah, “things fall apart.” Fuck it!
There has been absolutely no interest in the political machinations in empire. The corruption is so “over the top” that any concern is just a complete waste of time. Personal focus has been on the proxy war in Ukraine. The megalomaniacal Fascists, apparently headquartered in the “West,” are implementing their “last ditch” efforts to fulfill their nefarious goals (refer to the essential Fascist library). Fuck it!
There were plans to engage in the evening outing to the International Marketplace, but the latter was nixed just before departure time. What is the point anyway? Fuck it!
Addendum: The iPhone 14 Pro battery health is now down to 97% … yeah, fuck it!
