Now that I can sit here a bit better, a bit of clearing

Professional Journalists....

There is a Washington Post clown named Taylor Lorenz.  She's been bitching and whining about having PTSD because of all the mean things said to/about her online.

What makes this funny as hell?  She's made something of a career of using her position to crap on people guilty of wrongthink, including doxxing them.  But it's different when she does it.

Current bullshit:  This bitch used the bloody Post to put out the personal information of the lady who runs 'Libs of TikTok'. And said bastion of Professional Journalism published it.  Until the screaming started:
The WaPo article by Taylor Lorenz originally linked to the real estate license for the person behind the Libs of TikTok account— the link listed the person’s name, real estate license number, possible physical address, etc. WaPo only removed the link after being called out on it.

These people are some of the most vile hypocrites you'll ever see.

The knee is progressing

I've got bruising showing up all around the thigh along with the soreness easing some; turns out that was from the tourniquet used to control blood flow during the surgery.  The staples are out, and official PT starts in a couple of days.

Yes, I'm carrying the phone with me everywhere, as the idea of tripping/losing balance and being on the floor without a way to call for help scares me.  Especially considering my past gracefulness on occasion.  So very careful it is.  So still walker or cane-going with mostly cane now- for any real distance.

Now I've got the morning abuse to do, followed by icing and leg up, followed by an adventurous trip to the grocery store.  Assuming I survive the rigors, more later.


Note: I'm very aware of how advanced this stuff has become.  Two weeks after and I'm walking around with a cane instead of the 'couple of weeks in bed followed by' that it was not that long ago.  I'm still going to bitch about some things.

'Math' assignment. In bloody Missouri

And what are these assholes pushing in your kids/grandkids/neighbors kids school?

The morning exercises are done,

and I'm now supposed to put an ice pack on for a while, which will be done.  The knee is improving, and the swelling is down a bit, so more walking is on the menu.  Which, as long as I don't get graceful and wind up on my face or ass, is wonderful.

About the swelling: I suspect this is caused by the body flushing out wastes and whatever from the swelling and bruising, I'm peeing like the proverbial racehorse at night.  For about the first week- week and three it was pretty dark all the time, but is lightening now(wonderful detail, right?).  Or I'm just drinking enough that I'm having to go more than usual, but I suspect the first theory.  In any case, it almost- almost- makes me miss the catheter that was in from after the surgery till just before I left.

Ah well.  I must get to the icing.  And, despite the previous subject matter, a Happy Easter to you all.

While a bunch of people whose profession- if it actually cares about facts and truth- depends on uncensored information

getting around, has been screaming because Musk trying to buy Twatter would endanger their preferred censorship, ran across this on many of those same supposed defenders of free speech who've spent two years trying to hide and ignore the Biden laptop story, and now are trying to downplay it.  Hard as they can.  The motto at the Washington Post ought to be 'Truth Dies In The Darkness We Provide'.

These bastards aren't ashamed, because they have no shame.  Except when they can't sufficiently serve their leftist/Democrat masters, THEN they're seriously upset.

And they still demand we trust them.

One of my current "Screw you, then" things is 'You can check in early for your appointment

by going to this website!', etc.  For various reasons, including the current "Your verification failed"; since the number came from them, and I damn well know the DOB is correct, they've got a system problem or got my date of birth wrong.

Bleep, I'm sick of this crap.

It's a bit early, but under current circumstances the 7th evening stuff

is lucky to be here at all.

Since I'm home and avoiding anything involving actual work,

I was able to take care of the data for tonight.

During the enforced break, I was able to browse around on my phone

but I hate trying to do anything Blogger-wise because it's a PITA.  So I'd look around at things, wind up disgusted or pissed(or both), and let it go.  

Which might have had some good effect on my health, as opposed to keeping track of it and expounding on the subject.

So, back to some level of noise as I can stand sitting here.  Which brings me to this: it appears Ukraine managed to sink the Moskva, a Russian guided missile cruiser.  Which is a Big Thing.

That's it for now.  Morning PT is screaming, so I have to drag my ass up and do it.

From that consortium of corrupt asshats known as the FBI...

It has now emerged that he was known to the FBI and was questioned in 2019 in New Mexico though it is not yet clear why. He was cleared but was entered into the state's 'Guardian Lead' system. The Guardian Program is the bureau's terrorist threat and suspicious incident tracking system.

Despite being on that list, James was unimpeded as he relentlessly uploaded hate-speech-filled clips on YouTube about how oppressed black people were and how black and white people should have 'no contact', for weeks before Tuesday's attack.

He also posted worrying memes about guns, bullets and 9/11 on Facebook but none were picked up by police.
Again.  As usual.  Because the EffingBI is incompetent at anything except acting as political enforcers.


As a side note, because it pisses me off: the Mail article has a picture of a scrubbed-slide Ruger semi-auto with this caption:
A stock image of a .38 caliber handgun, the type used in the shooting that was found in a backpack along with a key to the U-Haul James had rented
Because accuracy in such isn't required, I guess.

For all the well wishes and prayers, thank you

Stayed with someone for this first week, because, bluntly, I couldn't have taken care of things like eating and so forth worth a damn.  And I hate having to A: Impose on people, and B: Not be able to take care of myself.

Yes, there is progress.  Considering a fairly important joint suffered a major assault a week ago, it probably counts as pretty good, though I still need a walker to get very far and for balance.

As to 'don't overdo it', as soon as someone tells me just that that covers I will make sure to do so.  The instructions sent home for PT are "Do each of these 40 times, twice a day.  There may be some discomfort."

'Discomfort' my ass.  And if they have ANYBODY who, during that first couple of weeks, can do these that many reps at all, let alone twice a day, they are stronger and more pain-resistant than I.  And I plan to tell the doc so at the 2-week followup.  I'm just going to have to fumble my way through this as best as can.

If you're wondering, full replacement.
