Russia influenced the US election by cyber warfare. Through social media, Hillary's emails, hacking etc, Russia tried getting into the minds of Americans to influence their vote. This is denied by Trump who also denigrates NATO even though these partner countries lost soldiers defending US interests. While denying Russia influenced his own election he attempts [...]
Dear fellow coma victims, Time to try walking without my stick again. I attempted that 2 years ago but wasn't successful, maybe this time. I'm an old man now who might require a stick anyway. I'm not that old, 50. Perhaps the most troubling thing about no stick is that nobody is aware that I'm [...]
Dear fellow coma victims, Considering the effects of coma again I wonder, my brain has lost it's relationship with the right hand side of my body, can I still feel emotion? I can't walk so well, and much of my memory has gone, I wonder if empathy also lives in that part of the brain? [...]
Immigration has become the main issue for Trump. The first thing to remember Donald is population growth. In my life it's gone from less than 4 billion to now more than 8. Soon enough there won't be enough land for all in adequate places with the necessary services. Also humans want to survive persecution. "America [...]
Dear fellow coma victims, To return to the main point of this blog, the thoughts of a coma victim which may be of interest given this blogger left ordinary consciousness for a while. I don't know but life does seem a little more profound since I almost lost it. Sure there are problems with the [...]
I like Singapore more than Melbourne, home is a good place to be. Singapore is multicultural, both cities are but Singapore is a little more I think. Tolerance is something I respect about a city. Not to discredit my city of birth but Australia is a little racist given the way it treats immigrants, boat [...]
Back to my favourite hotel in Melbourne's Chinatown, another round of recollections. I typically stay in this hotel in Melbourne, my walking seems to be worse than before, difficult just now crossing the lane to the hotel. I'm starting to wonder if my gait with ever improve. At least I can walk again, many coma [...]
More and more recollections. Now I'm in Redhill where my other sister lives, and my older brother nearby. There was a Christmas dinner here ages ago in which I managed the cooking. Not very well but I used to enjoy cooking they tell me. Another thing to relearn. Redhill has expansive wilderness, very natural and [...]
More recollections, now at my sister's home, a place I've lived many times since around 1985. I actually helped with the renovations, and the huge garden, so many memories. Actually most people here think my memory is normal, perhaps marginally lesser. Indeed they would know having collected me from Thailand in coma, bringing me back [...]
While visiting my mother in Paynesville I attended a U3A (University of the 3rd age) discussion group my father regularly attended before his passing. It is concerned with current affairs. So I raised these three topics, it was my father's job there to manage the discussion. 1. Global Warming Caused by burning fossil fuels - [...]
