Nihilistic Updates 2025

There has been little personal desire to add new posts to Notes, obviously because of … well, same ol’ shit. The routine remains the same. For how long, though? Can this insanity continue until 80 years of age? Who knows? Who cares?

All tax returns (including the 2022 amended) for Hawai’i have been completed and submitted by regular mail. The tax form for empire was printed locally, completed, and submitted as well. Thus, another stress factor has been eliminated.

The weather remains quite mild, considering this is the middle of the Winter season. So far, the Mainstays® quartz heater has not been deployed. Heck, even the blanket has not been unpacked from the storage suitcase. The pleasant weather has been a welcome relief, what with the fragile mental state and all.

Superfluous on-line accounts (including DeepSeek) are being mummified once again. The on-line “footprint” needs to be reduced further. The only copy of the personal Curriculum Vitae has been permanently deleted from cloud storage. Employment history is gone. Why? Preparations, no doubt, for the final exodus.

On Tuesday, the sump pump gave out at the gym in town. The staff had to close the gym at 1pm because of the sewage flooding in the locker rooms. The main portion of the gym resides on the basement level, so wastewater must be pumped up to the street level to discharge into the municipal sewage lines. The second half of the workout regimen had to be completed at the Kapi’olani location. What a “pain in the ass”!

Another Night at the “Old Folks Home” in Waikiki

The scene above was captured on Wednesday evening at 9:30pm. Lots of police vehicles are visible. Old folks acting up again? Yeah, just another night at the “old folks home” in Waikiki. At least the Night Mode on the iPhone 16 Pro camera proved to be quite good, eh?

On a side note, sleep is still an issue. What could be the problem? Death anxiety, you think? At least there are a few good House Music mixes to broadcast throughout the mausoleum with the Beats® Pill to soothe the troubled mind. Baha! Ha! Ha! Haaa!

Miscellany: Notes has been passively monitoring the “shock and awe” domestic policies being deployed by the “Orange Bad Man” administration. The speed at which events are transpiring is mind boggling. Clearly, “Orange Bad Man” did not spend the last four years only teeing off at his golf course. He evidently assembled a crack team that put those policies in queue to commence on Day One.
