Bike News
I got a new bike of the kind they allow on the Amtrak, and Washington DC subway. It is part of my commitment to never go out in downtown Richmond at night ever again. If I go out it will be at least a town AWAY from Richmond. My every weekend in Richmond has been a horrible nightmare, but when I travel I have GREAT times. Plus Pokemon is a breeze on bicycle wheels. I have met many nice co-workers at lunch meetings in Virginia, but for some reason a strange ugliness descends upon Virginia at sunset that I have not seen in other towns I have lived in as a resident. I plan to forever avoid it from now on. Lucky the state line to other areas is only a hundred miles away, and I will plan to escape there often on weekends.

Phone On
My phone is back on. Call me when you need to talk. These days it is hard to survive without a smartphone. It is like missing half the world.

Old Halloween
People think Samhain is the only origin of Halloween, but really the October Thesmorphoria rites were an origin in addition. The end of October is when Hades had to return Persephone back to her mother to change the seasons. This is why the spirit world grows close, and scary death images are normal as old world tradition.
“While the Thesmophoria acted as a pre-harvest ritual, the festival also celebrated Persephone’s return from the Underworld. The myth was therefore deeply intertwined with the festival’s rituals.”

October Interview
The perfect October interview is this article. I did not know he worked with Tina Turner that much.

Phones And Slowdown
I now think that phones do break to sell new phones. My old phone was working SO bad I could not even use Google maps on it well before it froze up completely. I had to get a new phone. I will NEVER buy a Samsung again.
“Apple and Samsung are being fined €10m and €5m respectively in Italy for the “planned obsolescence” of their smartphone.”
“Believed to be the first ruling of its kind against smartphone manufacturers, the investigation followed accusations operating system updates for older phones slowed them down, thereby encouraging the purchase of new phones.
In a statement the antitrust watchdog said “Apple and Samsung implemented dishonest commercial practices” and that operating system updates “caused serious malfunctions and significantly reduced performance, thus accelerating phones’ substitution”.

Phone Dead
My phone fell out of my bag and got smashed. I will not be returning phone calls this week, but I am not ignoring people. My new replacement phone is in the mail now my number will not be changing. The timing of this sucks due to it being almost Halloween, and I have many activities to do this time of year.

Hunan Birthday
I had birthday dinner at Hunan Gardens in Fredericksburg, VA with Anne, and Alexandria. The service was friendly, the platters were huge, and the food was delicious. It is my new favorite place in Fredericksburg.

Strange Mail
The Strange Letter
Weeks ago when I was super sick with Covid someone named Micheal tired to tell me there was something wrong with my car. I had never told them about the make and model of my car, or let them walk me to my car so how did they know anything happened with it? Creepy stalker crap this seemed to be. Then another strange thing happened with my mail. The Mercury club in Seattle, WA wanted to offer me a membership. I applied for membership YEARS ago when I was visiting my aunt Trish living in Bothell a suburb of Seattle, and they said I lived too far away. I had never given The Mercury my new address, and yet mail had been forwarded from one of my older Virginia addresses to me! How did they MAIL that crap? How is Virginia LESS far? Stalkers-stalkers all around! Proof positive people are sharing information about me behind my back, and getting it wrong.
I am a domestic abuse survivor, and have had many ex-boyfriends many times steal money from me, punch me bloody in the face, and stomach. People on the Internet need to STOP forking information over to “friends” who say they want to “help” women in that stalker criminals say that sort of thing too ALL the TIME. The Internet is sadly a treasure trove of dangerous information and misinformation. I have been to some great night clubs, with fun nights, and had good relationships in other areas. In Virginia the clubs are nothing but con-artist abuse factories for bad men meeting new victims. This is why I go on SO MANY road trips out of state, and go FAR away to be social as often as I can hit the road by car, or Amtrak, or road bike. This is why I keep a P.O. box far from my home. An important aspect of data privacy many Internet chat boards forget to mention is do not use home addresses. Simply put don’t talk about women’s personal information behind their back you are NOT helping them, and getting it very wrong.
