- Comment on Teachers deserve more money. 5 days ago:
Teachers have deserved more money for decades. Politicians have been promising teachers more money for decades so they can be elected to forget about giving teachers more money. I don’t know what the moral of the story is.

- Comment on Glasses 2 weeks ago:
I got pretty bad blepharitis once from using expired eyedrops (figured it wouldn’t be a problem to use a couple of drops … figured wrong). Lasted about a week; treatment was antibiotic eyedrops. Anyhow, during that time, it was very uncomfortable to open my eyes, and just a little more comfortable to keep them closed. So I kept them closed for most of a week.
I noticed that without my brain processing so much visual input, things seemed … ‘quieter’ somehow (is the only word I can think of for it) inside my head. Less busy. More … peaceful.
I wear glasses for distance and reading, but, of course, wasn’t during my ‘off week’. But relevant to OP’s question, I think, is the sense of peace that came from less visual stimulation.
I have spent times without my glasses, and found it to be less … busy. But I get eyestrain and a headache within a few hours, due to, I guess, trying to focus, or interpret, what I was seeing. So, yes, sometimes I take my glasses off to give my brain a break.

- Comment on the simulation jumped the shark with the is Trump guy 3 weeks ago:
I’d like to see Trump fight. It’d be funny.
“I know fighting. NOBODY knows more about fighting than me. I was at the MMZ the other night. Big guys came up to me, tears in their eyes, “MR PRESIDENT, can you give me some advice for my next fight?”
“Don’t get in the octagone with everybody’s favourite president”, I told him. I meant it as a joke. I do that self-depreciating humour, because I’m so humble. Lot of people don’t think I am, but I am. I don’t like to brag, but I’m the best at self-depreciting. Believe me. Believe me.
Anyway, you could tell from the fear in his eyes he thought I was serious. Which is okay. If I was there, it would be MY ring. I wouldn’t want to be in my ring with me either”.

It is insane. And absolutely no surprise such a totalitarian law came from Crisafulli. If he has his druthers, it’ll soon be illegal to say, “Stop mass murdering babies and children, you zionist IDF fucks!”
