This was part II of breakfast - a steaming cup of instant coffee (who's got time for all that messing about with coffee makers) and an apple fritter (hey, it's got fruit in it so it's healthy). I had a leisurely breakfast as my back was punishing me for being alive, courtesy of a work accident a few years ago. No - I'm not on disability - I enjoy working too much.
So, after breakfast and a few domestic chores (Y'all know the kind of thing - 'er indoors standing over me, brandishing a whip in one hand a flogger in the other with an electric cattleprod shoved in her belt just in case while I did them) I got on to working on the bus and the lab wiring.
A few days ago I had a dry afternoon and the day off so I spent an hour wiggling under the differential and trying various tools and ways of getting a single screw inserted into one of the bus ribs and the cable attached via a cable clamp. By the time I'd done that I was exhausted and my back was giving considerable grief.
Today I've been under again and am working more on the wiring. Aside from vicious mosquitoes I have had to go under and come out from under the bus several times. I'm sure my back will be even more interesting tomorrow. But I'm at the point where I can run the cable as far as the entry point. I don't know if I'll make it this weekend but I'll try. I really want to get power to my micro machine lab.
A couple of days ago I put a seemingly unpopular posting about racism having seen too many nationalist styled UK videos. I got some really angry responses after drawing attention to the disguised racism in them. I just hope I don't get so many of those video nasties showing up in my feed. Here are some of the nasty comments left (posters names redacted).
1. This is one misguided soul. Why did youtube recommend this video?
2. Because Englishmen traded their balls in for soy about 20 years ago. Have fun being Africa 2.0.
3. I watched 1m12s before I had to stop. At this point in the game you are incapable of being educated, and your rhetroic is harmful to the country that made you and the people that make up tht country and pay for its invasion. Shame on you. Your channel will not go much further, thankfully.
The poster of comment 3 seems to have deleted their comment. I'm assuming that these 3 people were racists. I don't bow before racists, sexists or any other group that seeks to support anything other than equal rights. I don't believe in fewer rights for any group or more rights for any group. All must be equal.
My response to all those posters was "Thanks for boosting engagement, much obliged." I'm not angry at any of them for their comments or their downvotes. I'm just disappointed that so many support inequality and lack compassion for others. And yes, I forgive them as they have not yet learned the important things in life are kindness and compassion.
So, my aim for this weekend is to get power to the entry point of the micro machine lab.
