Prince Kuhio Day 2025

Prince Kuhio

Another no-holiday holiday, and nothing noteworthy of mention. The routine remains the same regardless … same ol’ shit. Salads courtesy the ABC Store have been the mainstay for dinner. Sometimes half of a lamp-baked chicken is procured at the Waikiki Market and consumed as a “carnivore” dinner sans carbohydrates and vegetables. Anyway, another genuine Hawai’i coffee mug (made in China) was obtained upon redemption of $100 of receipts yesterday at the ABC Store. Dinner at Subway® is now restricted to once per week (until reward points are depleted). The Panda Express® on King Street is still closed.

Sleep has slightly improved (i.e., less wakings to “drain the lizard”), but there is some hesitation to attribute the improvement to diet modifications. Heart rate and HRV continue to be monitored by the Watch Series 9 device. HRV spikes during sleep hours have decreased. Again, correlation to diet modifications is not conclusive.

The whole issue with food categories is really moot, same with the different fashionable diets. The real problem is lifestyle, specifically the ubiquitous sedentary lifestyle of contemporary society. For example, carbohydrates are implicated as causing health problems. Well, sugar and starchy carbohydrates, maybe. However, chimpo sapiens long ago domesticated, cultivated, and consumed whole grains and rice. So future generations have adapted to both. Unfortunately, each successive generation became increasingly sedentary (both work and leisure). The “carnivore” diet is also ludicrous. Prehistoric humans were consuming fruits, vegetables, and nuts long before hunting and cooking came into fashion.

A couple of senior citizen acquaintances at the gym mentioned that their physicians had specifically instructed them to reduce workouts to much lighter weights (with more reps). The entire gym regimen should be made less strenuous including cardiovascular workouts. Essentially, these physicians (the same ones who pushed the mRNA bioweapon) are telling the geriatric crowd to indulge in leisurely workouts. And, that’s exactly what has been observed. Thus, degeneration accelerates. On the other hand, personal workouts remain the same. The physique is nearly the same over the last 34 years of gym tenure. Muscles are taut with visible striations. The abdomen does not protrude past the pectorals. And, no skeletal deformations.

Upon return to the “old folks home” in Waikiki from the late afternoon outing to the International Marketplace on Monday, a chance encounter with Ignacio ensued at the entrance. He immediately mentioned another incident with the management. Frankly, the situation is becoming tiresome because Ignacio appears to be looking for trouble. He should already be aware that he is dealing with a “woke” staff. They are all incompetent “diversity hires” and will not accommodate his complaints. He then expressed that he would take irrational steps in response. Frankly, reasoning with Ignacio has become impossible.

Ignacio has pretty much isolated himself. He no longer socializes with the other apathetic and complacent tenants. So, he spends most of his time in his mausoleum. In fact, most of the tenants have restricted themselves to the “old folks home” compound. Hence, ridiculous incidents and drama are a regular occurrence. Lots of gossiping, too. The whole environment of the shithole is toxic.

At the gym on Tuesday, a conversation with Bob revealed that he had just started working out again after being MIA for several months. This is the same Bob who almost expired over caffeine overdose. This time, he had returned home from the gym. As he exited the elevator, he felt dizzy and disoriented. Then, he collapsed. Fortunately, a security guard was in the immediate proximity. Long story short, Bob spent three weeks in the hospital after suffering from a stroke. He was fortunate because there are disabilities presenting. Most likely, he was “vaccinated” and “boostered” with the mRNA bioweapon.

Addendum: About 15% of the local population steadfastly continue to wear face masks. They have been doing so for nearly five years. Peak stupidity!

Ides of March 2025

Beware the Ides of March!

Another cold front arrived on the shores of Hawai’i about a week ago, bringing gusty winds as well. The ambient temperature remains cool, but not as cold as last year at this time. So far, no heavy rain either.

On Thursday, the fire alarm was triggered at 3am at the “old folks home” in Waikiki. The Fire Department responded within a few minutes. Nonetheless, a sleepless night ensued. Incidentally, ambulances and police vehicles continue to adorn the parking lot on a daily basis. The “old folks home” is a blight on the entire ‘hood.

Another conversation with neighbor Ignacio on the street the other day revealed that he has been cleared of the false claims by the management of the “old folks home.” Of course, Ignacio threatened to bring forth a lawsuit (which he would have won the judgment). So, the eviction bullshit is now history.

The Panda Express® on King Street closed for renovations on Monday. No telling when it will reopen. At least that solves the conundrum of whether to dine there or not. Otherwise, the issue of diet affecting sleep remains unsolved. Sleep deprivation is now affecting cognition, with mild dementia symptoms presenting.

The problems with different types of food types and food ingredients could be tied to old age. The digestive tract could have developed an acute sensitivity to various those particular food types and ingredients (e.g., carbohydrates, sodium, sugar, vegetable oil, caffeine, alcohol). Thus, reactions that never occurred before have now come into play. The sleep problem, by the way, centers on awakening nearly every hour to “drain the lizard,” whether necessary or not. Salads appear to not cause the problem.

Medicare Advantage is slowly losing its appeal. Each year, so-called “perks” are either reduced or eliminated. This year, the small $40 per quarter stipend for over-the-counter products disappeared without any notification. No doubt, the Silver Sneakers® gym program is next on the “chopping block.”

The Apple® Intelligence fiasco is now bordering on scandalous. Many of “features” have been delayed to some unknown time in the future. Advertisements have been pulled. Even the technology pundits are now furious. Of course, the problem was solved locally by disabling the AI bullshit. Don’t need it now, won’t need it then.

The iPad Pro M4 is again being considered for divestiture. The fact of the matter is that there is so little content to peruse on the approved Web sites. Alternative news sites outside the “West” appear to have been affected by sanctions of empire. And, of course, the technology “blogs” are focused on pushing the AI bullshit. The Google® news aggregator still functions as a summary of news in empire. Unfortunately, the mainstream news sources appear to remain locked on presenting “fake news” or “woke” bullshit. Ten minutes is really all that’s required to view all of the Web sites for daily briefings. Anyway, the iPad is the only device other than the iPhone that has a trade-in value (currently $625).

On a side note, Advanced Data Protection (ADP) was enabled for the personal iCloud account. ADP was pulled from the UK market subsequent to its Fascist government making demands for a “backdoor” to iCloud. Similar demands could easily made by other Fascist governments in the “West” as well as empire. So, “in before the lock!” Baha! Ha! Ha! Haaa!

Miscellany: Another $100 was spent (on prepared food) within two weeks at the ABC Store. So, during the Friday late afternoon outing, a stopover was made to redeem the receipts for another genuine Hawai’i coffee mug (made in China).

Postscript: An interesting article appeared on the RT site in which “peak stupidity” in empire was verified. Who knew?

Peak Stupidity 2025

At 2am on Thursday morning last week, the fire alarm in the “old folks home” in Waikiki was triggered by yet another moron cooking (read: burning) food with the mausoleum door wide open. The Fire Department arrived fifteen minutes later and reset the alarm system. They didn’t even bother to check every floor. Obviously, everyone “knows the drill.” Then, the fire alarm was triggered again at 2:35am. The Fire Department was dispatched again to reset the alarm system. Peak stupidity.

Well, at least a brief conversation with neighbor Ignacio was facilitated by the latter stupidity. Of course, no attempt was made to evacuate the building. Ignacio is still being tormented by the management. He was given an eviction notice for a bogus claim, but the threat has long passed. Obviously, the charade was a petty and illegal bluff.

Nonetheless, peak stupidity continues to “lower the bar” on itself in all of empire. The original Notes post of the same title in the 2021 year predicted the advent of peak stupidity. However, who could have imagined that “circumstances” could increase sheer stupidity at such an accelerated pace?

The dinner conundrum continues unabated. Subway® sandwiches have been curtailed. Now, Panda Express® may face the same outcome. The recommended fare, as detailed previously in Notes, is now the chief suspect in the mystery of sleep deprivation. Even with the blotting of the sauces and vegetable oil with napkins, the cuisine proved problematic. The issue was isolated when several consecutive dinners of salads (courtesy the ABC Store) was followed by a Panda Express® meal. Sleep had actually improved during consumption of the salads.

Incidentally, purchasing salads and other prepared food at the ABC Store in the last two weeks produced over $100 in expenditures. The amount qualified for a free gift when the sales receipts were presented. A genuine Hawai’i tourist coffee mug (made in China) was chosen. At this point in time, the current sales receipts are adding up for another coffee mug.

The vast hurdy-gurdy video library (HGVL) on the LaCie® SSD is now down to 298 choice selections. The intermittent auditing process has been slow, since the latter is obviously a waste of time. Heck, the HGVL serves no purpose. The project itself was a complete waste of time. Sheesh!

On a side note, the antics of the “Orange Bad Man” administration seemed confusing at first. Now, the true motives are coming to the forefront. The Great Re-shit (read: “Great Reset”) is what its policies should be labeled, albeit a more crude Fascist version. The administration appears to be “hell-bent” on bringing about the collapse of empire and its debased society. Klaus Swab (WEF) would be elated. No complaints here. Bring it on!

Addendum: Ignacio relayed sad information about two mutual acquaintances in the “old folks home.” One passed on a week ago. The other suffered from increasing dementia and was released into family care.
