Apparently Weird

 The Seemingly Weird Things I Observe

Individuals with agitated facial expressions talking loud to themselves in public - as they cleverly hide their ear pods, they are really chatting loud on their mobile phones.

High tech wifi service that breaks down more often than landline telephones from 40 years ago.

So called annual flora breeds that go umderground each cold season and rise again in the warm season.

Prices of shares and other investments which cause a media uproar with a violent rise or fall but really keep on growing in value over the long term.

People who remarkably recall what I uttered many years ago, but in a good way.

To be in the right place at the right moment - and catch up with someone truly missed.

To hear or witness governments or authorities express regret over unresolved matters when any one could already see the proverbial train wreck coming.

To see the delusion of addiction of several things in society being encouraged in media - and to continue to see the spiral such addicts find themselves in without care by society.

To observe the over the top obsession with weather forecasts in some cultures.

To not realise the best things in life are already right infront of us every day.

To not be mindful that when an aircraft crashes, it does not matter which class of seating one is in.

Individuals who emphatically must use a particular seat on public transport.

No Brainers

Commercial hotels are not built to accomodate as medical evacuation centres. They are designed for holding healthy guests. A powerful national ally asks an aggressive leader to de-escalate tensions, but the latter doubles down on bombing. The NSW Government in Sydney so far ignores the rising mouse plague across NSW farms and countryside - when will the impact arrive at supermarket prices and supply to suburban areas? The plague of corruption of our public monies and manipulation of politics continues unabated under the cover of Covid 19. Nature gives us produce from plants we can grow ourselves. The sun shares her bounty to give to our bodies and for our household energy utilities. Yet society makes us go to pay a middle person for our table veg, a manufacturer for vitamin supplements and a company that burns coal. Most of us these days have a mobile phone, a social media address, a personal email, an ID document, a favourite password, a swipe card, etc. Soon there may be more required as governments may utilise Covid 19 to make us have more. Is there a website where I can follow up on electoral promises, the varying pronouncements of medical bureaucrats, the predictions of soothsayers and the forecasts of economists? Each of us can read between the lines when a snake oil sales person tries too hard to press on the message to us. #yongkevthoughts
