No Evidence Russia Put Bounties On US Troops, US Intel Admits

Blogging as a Journal

  I use my blog more as a journal than anything else. I've been blogging, now, for 10 or 15 years.

I started it too talk about how to navigate the disability maze. If you are going to file for disability some of my earlier blogs have a lot of good tips for that purpose; but if I were you I would youavoid disability and just work for a living. No matter how fruitless it may seem. Disability is a trap. You'll always have a very limited income.

Maybe that is just the way things are in today's world; you're damned if  you try to work and you're damned if you are on disability.

I had an active blog during the Ebola scare. I think that was when at one week I had hundreds of views from Moldova. I think I remember having 500 or so on one day.

Recently I haven't been writing very much. It's mainly due to my schizophrenia. Something happened in Vail CO a couple of years ago that had me hung up in sexual fantasies concerning a Hollywood babe.

To this day I tend to believe that it really happened. Usually my schizophrenic breaks involve combat in  different time periods, like WWII and farther back. I never seem to go into the future for some reason.

My break at Vail did include catching a wormhole to go back to the South Pacific in WWII but I don't remember much of it. I'm getting too old for such crap anyways. I'm also too old for Hollywood babes but they get it in their minds that I'm actually very rich. Maybe I tell them that it's a tradition in my family to hide our wealth. I'm cynical enough that I think women are just after men for their money.

On a different track, I'm trying to buy Theta coin. For some reason it's difficult for Americans to get that crypto coin even though it's about to go through the roof.

I'm drawing a blank right now so I'll leave an image of one of my etchings and sign off.

Generalized Ramblings

 I'm just inspired to ramble in a general way, tonight.

I was watching ALUX today and it had 15 ways to make money with no start-up expenses. I think #9 was to have a blog. It got me thinking about my blog. 

The reason I named it "Working the System" was that at the time I started it I was starting out on disability for my schizophrenia . I was familiar with working thru the welfare system since I really didn't have much choice in applying for disability. 

I live in a small town and evey body knows all about everyone else. I wasn't about to get a decent paying job. And I was too broke to move so I set myself on the path for disability. I felt it was my only option.

I wouldn't advise anyone to go this route but sometimes it's the only alternative. It's defiantly the path to more poverty. Of course, many people are going this way because it probably beats starving in a business doorway on a Winter night.

For the last five or ten years I've been trying to get an RV and maybe my own land so I can be homeless with some style. Instead I end up in tiny apartments and I go month to month with no savings. 

I don't know the solution to poverty. I keep reading books and watching YouTube videos about breaking the chains of poverty but I simply don't have the motivation to break thru. One of the videos I watched yesterday said that poverty can be a habit and we lose the drive to break out of what is comfortable to us.

I think I'll leave on that note. This is simply not improving. I'll put a picture of one of the etchings I have for sale below.
