Welcome to opalholicsanonymous.com where opal season lasts forever.

Sanitation and masks, as much as i hate to wear one, are just common sense in a crowded world.

Squatter has gotten a bad rap due to the cattle barons wanting to use all the land for themselves, but it was a honorable thing to create your own little slice of heaven from the wilderness.

Granted the firstest with the mostest were writing the laws and nomads had no property rights until earned.
It is the concept of create for yourself vs the spun idea of crushing any competition immorally. I had a copy of the board game Cattleman too that was a ranching and mining game that I donated to the Pine Forest Homemakers for the annual Rope for Hope auction. I already got to play it as a child and learn the ropes.

I may watch weird stuff, but while working I like to listen to playlists such as this one.

I do love Scotts outlook on the world portrayed thru Calvin & Hobbes.
"Now, the obvious thing is to say, yeah, no, Bill Watterson didn’t write Calvin and Hobbes in response to a pandemic. The strip, which ran in papers from 1985 to 1995, is just about childhood. Calvin is the model of a kid, but expressly the type of kid who doesn’t get along with his family, who doesn’t have many (any?) friends, who doesn’t grok school, who bristles against authority. Certainly we’ve all shouldered hard into that authority, right? The immovable force of parental rule or teacher law? (I once had a teacher swear that a word I used in a story — ”rictus” — wasn’t a real word, and I went to war to prove her wrong.)"
