The President is the One to Dissolve the Political Deadlock

And yet, will he, consider things from the MAJORITY of voters’ angles? HELL NO, he does what he wants to do, to the people, to this FUCKING (so???) country, DEADLOCKING the country, with NO resolves on the budgets, which means, everything will, HALT, all the government agencies will soon, STOP functioning, because the budget can’t, pass…how this “country” gets, KIDNAPPED by our president elect!  Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

I’d sought out A.I. to explain the meaning of “political deadlock”, and, the response used Taiwan as an, example, we are now, well-known throughout the, world for sure.

Since Lai was elected as president in 2024, the DDP was outvoted by the parties out of power in the legislative, but the it’d not conceded, shared the powers, and all of the proposed bills by the adversary parties all were, vetoed, the party in power of the presidency and the parties out of power, started, in that, shouting match ever since.  By 2025, things worsened, the Executive Department joined forces with the Justice Department, the Examination Department too, while the TPP and the KMT that are now, majority of the legislature, voted to impeach the president, and put off reviewing of the 2025 budget review, the parties trapped themselves into a deeper deadlock, with more time wasting, away.

As the political geographical conflicts are getting more and more complex by the day internationally, the country is now in the disputes that will put us all in critical danger.  And, at this time, we don’t work together hand in hand, instead, we got, stuck, because of the unresolved difference of the political parties.  The British PM, Starmer, faced with the political challenges of the Reform UK, he’d selected to not get into conflict frontally; at the start of the year, he’d told his cabinet, that the government should “persistently concern itself” with the problems of costs of basic living, to bring people the change that they want to see.  Currently, the costs of living in Taiwan is extremely high, with the wages, low, the unbalances of developments in the industries, the gap between the rich and the poor is widening, this, is what we the people, are caring about.

like this, with NO middle grounds, no room for negotiation…illustration from online

While the total budget for 2026 hangs in the balances at the legislature, to not yet set up the committees, the Executive doesn’t seem like it wants to, negotiate, instead, it’s getting ready to, propagandize the party’s beliefs all around.  I recommend that both sides take a step backwards, think about what we the people want the, most?  The Executive, faced with getting outnumbered by the KMT and the TPP, still wants it both ways, not compromise, is that a good, thing?  Should it, lift its, landscape, to show some goodwill or, compromises in the acceptable means; and the TTP and KMT also needs to do diligence, to quickly put the total budget into review, to NOT let the country rotate on, empty.

Actually, this can be solved, with one thought from the president, Lai, if he is willing to adjust minorly, I’m sure, that the deadlock will get, resolved easily.  I believe, that maybe, the president could, authorize a “third party mediation” with the parties nominating the representatives who can stay impartial of their political parties, to review the facts, to discuss, but not to vote on the decision, with all the results of the discussion, the conferences be put to the considerations of the president, maybe, this will, dissolve the, deadlock.  Everybody love this island, so we should be able to, come up with a compromise that both sides can, agree, on.

Yeah, uh, right, this is not going to happen, because the DDP president wants totalitarian control over all branches of this, fucking “democraZy”, and he won’t stop until he gets it, that’s why he’s deadlocking the budget, holding the people’s lives, hostage, until he gets things the way he wants them to, work!

Getting CONNED by the Employee I’d Fired

Because she’d looked, honest, but in reality, she isn’t, this is not the first time she’d, pulled this, trick out of that, “hat”, she must’ve, done it before, and succeeded, that’s why she did it again, thinking that she will, get away with it!  Something the employers need to, watch out, for…translated…

Mom always told me, that a loss is a, gain, that we shouldn’t, care too much if others are taking advantage of us.  Later, as I’d owned and operated a small diner abroad, she’d told me, that my employees are geese that lay the golden eggs for me, to not forget, to feed them to, full.  Unfortunately, the Brothers Grimm Fairytales don’t function at all in my kitchen, the dishwashers never last long.  And I’d had to, grit my teeth, and purchase an extremely expensive dishwasher to get it, installed, and paid for that in, installments.  That stainless massive machine slowly got implanted into my kitchen, then, the raging winds and rains that began on the inside, and, in a few short minutes, it’d, cleaned up those, piles of stacked up dirty, dishes.  The semi-automatic machine still needed the push of the buttons, the adjusting of the settings knobs, but, way more efficient that how my kitchen worked from, before.

The woman who came for the position looked, quite pale, there’s not the least sign of color in her tight, minced, lips, but there’s that desire from her, tiny, triangular, eyes.

She’d circled around in my kitchen a couple of, time, skillfully checked the dish detergent compartment below the dish washer, like she’s, showing off her, professionalism.  Afterwards, she’d, signed the contract I gave to her, without any hesitation.

In the trial periods, she was, excellent, to the point of arriving early, and clocking out, late, I’d had to reminder her that it’s time to clock out, she’d always smiled and told me, just a few more moments then I shall, she was, the model employee.  She’d become like a quiet shadow in the kitchen then, and two weeks flew by, I’d settled and switched her to a permanent full-time employee then.  Until that crazed weekend evening a few days later, that’s changed, all of this.

The customers were lined up from within my restaurant to out of the street in the corners, and just as we’re at highest traffic, I saw her changed out of her uniform, headed out the door.  I’d blocked her, and asked, “where are you going?”

She’d told me calmly, “I’m clocked out!”

I’d blurted at the spurt of the moment, “what?  Don’t come back again!”

The attorney’s frown tightened, with his face half shadowed, looked at me, as if saying, “you’re too brash, too naïve.”  The courtroom was, dead silent, with his black suitcase, mentioned the door with him chin, mouthed the words, “there’re all radicals inside, all wanted to make trouble for the employers, I hadn’t seen any employers come back out alive”.

Entered into the labor-wages mediation room, both side stood at individual corners, the attorneys from both side engaged, back and forth.  Her attorney pulled out a stack of various colors of file folders as evidence, then that was when I’d realized, I’d fallen into that, trap now.  The reason why the model employee always worked overtime, for the sake of the coming of “firing for no just cause”.  We’d worked together for no more than twenty days, she’d demanded a total of four months’ worth of restitution, if I don’t sign, then, we can hash it out next door in the courtroom, and it will drag on even longer, and the fines would be, way, higher, probably enough for a couple of the automatic dishwashers!

Although mom told me that buying peace is the best option, but this trip, I’d understood, I’d had to, quickly, make my, exit.

I’d turned, and, locked eyes with that face that’s no longer, pale, with her lips, smiling, and not smiling.  Inside that tiny triangular eyes, seemed to have that gloat of how her schemes, worked.

And so, this still just showed, how NOTHING is meet the eyes, that if someone seems a certain way, then we should all, be skeptical and question it, after all, you do NOT want what’s happened to this business owner to, happen to you, too.  And this is, probably the woman’s plan all along, as she may have done it, and got away with it successfully, that’s why she’s, gloating about it.

Shit Happens…

That’s what they all, say, right?  That the world can’t always and forever be bright and shiny, and cute kitties, and all that…

Well, from where I’m sitting (don’t ask where!), there’s MORE shit happening, EVER than before in history (and note: my history only “lasts” 24-hours here!).  Shit happens, what can we do, huh?  That’s how life goes, isn’t it?

A PSYCHOPATH had ascended into the throne somewhere, and now, he’s, ruling over the entire global community like he OWNED it!

still NO LAUGHING MATTER though…and see how it’s, “interchangeable” with, life??? Photo from online

With WARS, pillaging of others’ properties going on, all around this god damn global world right now, and to tell the truth, I don’t see there’s any light at the end of that, proverbial, tunnel.

It’s like the entire god damn world’s STUCK in this, DARKNESS, with all these, mother @$%#ING shit happening, all over the places, it’s like, there’s, no more hope for this entire global community.

And yet, we’re all still, doing the best we could, living inside our own, individual, tiny boxes, playing our own individual parts, as well as we know how, to keep this world’s head, above, water…

Think about it, maybe, letting this world DROWN to death is a better, alternative, ‘cuz then, all these SHITS that had happened, won’t happen again, ‘cuz the world’s, DEAD!!!

The Disputes of Greenland, China’s Upset: the U.S.’s Aim of Benefiting Itself, & Using Other Countries as Its Excuses of Doing So, N.A.T.O. is Drafting up Stationing of North Pole Sentinels to Deter China & Russia

How Trump’s hands-off of other countries’ affairs, helped the countries in Europe that originally allied with the U.S. to SET up their own league, and this IS a good thing, that European countries are realizing that U.S. under Trump can’t be counted on, so they found their own leagues to band together…how the world restructured itself as the PSYCHOPATH still runs the DIVIDED STATES of Trump (no longer the “United States of America” no more!!!)…off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

As the President of the U.S. Trump, reiterated that he wants Greenland as a part of U.S. territories, the Daily Telegraph from England reports, that Great Britain and the E.U. is now discussing deployment of military in Greenland, to deter Russia’s movements in the Arctic.  Germany also proposed setting up a joint N.A.T.O. mission to monitor and protect, to maintain the security and safety of the region.

The reports said, the British government officials had begun the initial planning phase with Germany, France and other countries, and the contents may include deploying of the British military, military aircrafts and battleships, to protect Greenland from the influences of Russia and China’s actions.

Awhile ago, Trump mentioned that U.S. will take actions against Greenland, otherwise, the country will get taken over by either Russia or China, the spokesperson of foreign affairs, Mao from China responded yesterday, that the Arctic is in the interest of international benefits, that China’s activities “abided by the international laws”.  Mao also stated, that U.S. is only interested in benefiting itself, and should not use other countries as its excuses to do so.

In the Swedish Defense Conference on the 11^th, the highest ranked military leader of N.A.T.O., Grinkevich stated, that the members of N.A.T.O. is discussing the future of Greenland, toward Trump’s latest comments, Grinkevich stated, that he wouldn’t comment on the “political front of the latest comments” but “the related discussions are continuing in Brussels right now.” He also mentions, that the Arctic region’s tactile advantages is elevating very quickly, that Russia and China are working together, to attempt to gain more chances of entry into the North Pole.

Bloomberg quoted the know, that the foreign minister of Germany, Wadephul and the head of treasury, Klingbeil in visiting D.C. on the 12^th, Germany will propose the setting up the Arctic Sentry, to protect the Arctic region.  The Arctic Sentry will be responsible in keeping the region safe, and it will be set up based off of the Baltic Guard.

Wadephul will be meeting up with the U.S. Secretary of State, Rubio on this trip, Wadephul said, that the resolves of U.S. concern of Russia or China’s active in the Arctic must be resoled under the frameworks of N.A.T.O.

as a result of Trump’s DESIRES to OWN Greenland, the countries in Europe are, banding together, video from YouTube

Wadephul said, “on the matter of autonomy of governance of the territories, our position is clear, that Greenland will be ruled by the citizens of Greenland.”

Heidi Alexander the British Transport Secretary stated, anything the country does to deter Putin from mobilization in the Arctic Circle is “business as usual”.  She said, “considering the activities of Russia and China, the Arctic Circle is now a geo-political area of possible conflict.  We and all other members of N.A.T.O. are discussing how to deter Russia from invasive behaviors in the Arctic Circle, this is reasonable.”

And, this is how countries in Europe became cooperative in defending the North Pole, because Russia had proven itself to be a threat, and it’s still because of how Russia sees N.A.T.O.’s accepting Ukraine’s application to be a member as N.A.T.O.’s expanding into its backyard, and with the U.S. now hands off, N.A.T.O. countries will have to be, self-reliant, and they’re, setting up the defenses right now.

The Grand Gamble of the Western Hemisphere Based off of the Donroe Doctrines

With the rest of the world’s countries, stuck between the league of China, Russia (maybe N.Korea too!), and the countries in Europe, Central and South America, with U.S. getting its hands on EVERYTHING that Trump desires…off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

Stephen Miller, the Deputy Chief of Staff of the WH and Homeland Security Advisor, in an exclusive interview with CNN stated, “we live in a real world, defined by the rule of the powerful, arms, this is the ironclad rule since the start of time”, he’d added the bluntest interpretation for Trump’s version of the Monroe Doctrine, “The Donroe Doctrine”.  The U.S. military’s unannounced assault on Venezuela, not only shocked the Maduro government, but also, sounded off the alarm for the international world order post WWII.

The “ironclad rule” that Miller spoke on, had been found in human history, but the post-World War II era, the international relations systems had been set up, to discard this sort of survival of the fittest, the laws of the jungle.  And now, the Trump government seemed to change the U.S. from a protector of this unspoken rule to the destroyer of this rule, embracing “the major powers are the justified”.  Trump’s covetousness for Greenland isn’t from the economical angle, after all, Denmark needs to reimburse Greenland $600 million; what he has his eyes on is the absolutely tactile value of the country as the Polar Icecap melts, including the control of Greenland-Iceland-the underwater passageway of Great Britain, to keep surveillance on the Russian submarines from entering into the water passageways of Northern Atlantic Ocean, along with the control of the new trade passage in the North Pole.  And still, as early as 1951, the U.S. signed the 1951 Defence of Greenland Treaty, and maintained a good relationship with Denmark since, if Trump is insistent on buying Greenland, or using pressures to obtain Greenland, it may cause the N.A.T.O. systems to, dissolve completely.

how this SHIT went BUST…video from YouTube, and I’d only watched not even a-third of this BULLSHIT, so, I really can’t tell you guys WHAT is on here…off of YouTube

For Taiwan and the Indopacific region, the deepest impact of the Donroe Doctrine lies in that U.S. is now, sending and receiving the dangerous signals with Beijing and Moscow.  If the U.S. push forth unilateralism in the Western Hemisphere, seeing Latin America and the North Pole as its own backyard, disregarding the autonomy of its allies, then, China’s mobilizing in the Taiwanese Straits, and South China Sea, along with Russian invasion of Ukraine, will be justified based off of the “large countries’ territorial boundaries”.  As the U.S. focused its attention on Greenland and Venezuela, the attention toward China is reduced, and the interactions of China and U.S. is shifting toward the G2 structure of the two countries splitting the governance of the world’s other countries, and this is bad news for Taiwan that is on the geo-political frontlines.

On Trump’s turning his attention toward Greenland, it would be unrealistic, thinking that Trump would turn around, and change his mind at the key moments in time; Denmark won’t receive the promises of the procedural through recessions, nor to expect to reach the final agreement by sacrificing its territories partially.  Any form of recessions, or expansions of U.S. military bases won’t satisfy Trump’s appetite, instead, it would be viewed as weak, which will give way to Trump’s making more unreasonable demands.  And so, in the crisis on Greenland, the EU should try to get Denmark and Greenland to reach an agreement, symbolically, deploying the military to assist in Greenland in defending itself; this is not to get in the crossfires with the U.S. military, but to instill the high political cost of how if Trump wants to forcibly take over, it will be taking the allies prisoner.  As it will be next to impossible for the U.S. Congress to approve this kind of military risk of dissolving N.A.T.O., isolating the U.S., which helps Russia and China gain the most.

the world as Trump’s “property”…image from online

With all that said, it’s not in taking over the allies’ territory that will make America great; if the U.S. keep on getting addicted to Miller’s proposal of military strengths and invasive abilities of the U.S., ignoring the law and order that helps in establishing the allies’ connections, then, “this power” will eventually fall into the enemies’ hands.  In the “all-in” gamble by Trump of his Donroe Doctrine, he’s not just gambling the territorial rights of Greenland, but the life or death of the Western countries’ alliances, and the life or death of international law and order.

But, Donnie wants what Donnie wants, and right now, he wants GREENLAND, he’d already taken OVER Central AND South America, and now he’s reaching his FILTHY had into that bigger COOKIE JAR of the world, where a lot of the resources he wants, are located, and he won’t stop until he’d, gobbled up the world!

What If, All of This, is Gone in a Split Second One Day…

What if, all of this, is gone in a split second one day, do you ever wonder, what you will, do?  I mean, how will you, cope with things that you’d worked hard for all your lives, vanishing, just like that?

What’s meant to happen will, happen, there’s no, deterring that, as I’d already, learned THIS hard lesson that my own fate had, shoved into me!

What if, all you’d worked so hard for, all you’d been pursuing, is for naught, huh?  I mean, you DO realize, that you don’t, take anything with you when you, go, right?

and, to think that he’d, prepared for that major kick that’s gonna, win him the, hoorays too! Video off of YouTube

So why you still, so hung up on these things that are on the outside, that you used, to define your self, as or into?  What if, all you’d worked so hard for, is gone in a, split second?  Because this SHIT will happen, because that’s how FATE works, it YANKS things from underneath you (like that kid that’s unlucky in Charlie Brown that always got the rug pulled out from underneath him?), and, there’s NOTHING you can do, to hold, on………

Well, guess that you’re just, gonna have to, deal with it wen it comes, because, it hadn’t, happened, YET, and you would NEVER know how you’re going to, respond to, these “misfortunes” of your own lives, until they, HIT you.

you may be sitting high on your thrones right now…

The Resolve I Came to, from Losing Too Many, Umbrellas

On losing these items, misplacing them, and how after so many of these things you’d lost, you’d finally, given up on trying to find ways to stop yourself from losing them, because some things are, meant to be, lost!  Translated…

I’d been, scatterbrained since I was a young child, always left things all over the places, misplaced them, and my mother would always scold me, “if your head wasn’t attached to your neck, you’d lose that, too!”, such a scary image, what WAS my mother, thinking, about!

Actually, I really don’t want to misplace these items at all, but I’d really tried my best, for instance the umbrellas, when it rains, of course I would go out with one, and if the rain stopped before I go home, then, there’s only a ten-percent chance I’ll bring the umbrella I took with me, back, the rest, were all left, somewhere.  I’d once spent a ton of money, and put in a lot of thoughts, and hard work too, to turn the habits of leaving my umbrellas behind the best I, could.

unfortunately, there’s no “lost and found” like this for you to search in…illustration from online

In my university years, heading up to the north after a long weekend, I passed through the major mall opposite of the Taipei Main Station, a thought came: “if I buy me a really expensive umbrella, then I won’t, lost, that!”, and so at the age of twenty, at the time when a bowl of simple noodle soup cost only ten dollars N.T., I’d purchased a really pretty, elegant Scottish red and green block patterned umbrella, with it over my head, it’d felt like I was, strutting through the campus of Oxford University.

The day following the purchase, I’d gone to a function out of my school, when I went to bed at night, I’d placed the umbrella on the bed, hugged it tight to go to, sleep.  The student from other school who was a roommate couldn’t understand it, “Why would you need to hug your umbrella when you go to bed at night?”  I’d ignored her.  Nobody could understand my resolves of making sure that I don’t forget my umbrella!  So long as I don’t separate myself from it, then, I won’t, lose, it.

The camp was really fun, I’d met a ton of new friends.  Three days later, I’d returned back to the dorm, did my dirty laundry, hung them up, and something didn’t feel right to, me then.  I’d thought for a very long while, then, it’d dawned on me: it’s my umbrella!  It only took me three short days, for me, to lose that, high-end, umbrella!

Not long after that, I’d bought another yellow one, in the Wenhwha University where it always rained, it was like I’d owned my own, sun.  And, just as would be expected, no brightly shone sun, it still got, misplaces somewhere, thanks to my, forgetfulness.

like…this…photo from online

And after that, I’d, stayed submerged for a very long time, and only purchase the cheapest umbrellas to use, to the point of accepting the umbrellas that my friends were tossing out but still, usable, so long as they sheltered me from the rain, so long as they were willing to stay with me, then I’d felt, more than, grateful for, them.

Until one day at Huashan Cultural Creations I saw a design, with the transparent surface and a rainbow painted across the umbrella, over the skylines of the city, with a cat leaping on it.  This had my name written, all over it!  I’d made my own way now, am more mature too, I shall, not lose this one!  Swipe my card, please!

And surely, I’d, cherished this umbrella, once, there’s a typhoon, I’d had to, move my car someplace safe in the raging storms, I’d, grabbed an old, almost unusable umbrella, run out, my wife chased after me, propped open the umbrella for me, screamed aloud at me, “hey, use this one, it’s the functional one!”, I’d immediately grabbed the umbrella away from her, hugged it in my arms, scolded her, “this is a designer umbrella!  It’s very expensive!”, and still, things aren’t supposed to stay with me for long, that umbrella I’d protected using my life, still, went, away.

On the matter of “losing my umbrellas”, I’d completely let them all of, the umbrellas, just like the water bottles, are all, consumables, no need to get the ones that are too expensive, if you lose one, just go to the super convenience stores, grab one that cheaper to use.  Besides, nothing in the world is mine, love and responsibilities, are all, excessive.

And so, you’d tried everything to keep your umbrellas from getting lost, spent a ton of money on one, buying the cheaper ones so you won’t feel so bad when you’d lost them, and yet, in the very end, you’d still, lost them.  Then, you’d finally, let yourself off the hook, because it’s JUST an umbrella, there’s NO need to get upset over it, and it’s not a matter of money you’d spent that’s upset you, but how you keep on, losing them, and you’d, finally accepted, that some things in life, you’re, meant to, lose…

The Murder of the Woman by ICE Agents in Minnesota Caused the Entire United States to Take Actions Against ICE’s Brutality

Took long enough, for this, CIVIL WAR to, build up enough momentum all right!  Under the KING’s rule, the country fractured, and a country divided from within, will DIE!  So, it is Trump, who’d SINGLEHANDEDLY, brought America DOWN!  Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

The thirty-seven-year-old woman, Good getting shot to death by ICE caused more than a thousand protests across the U.S. against ICE., with the governor of Minnesota and the mayor of Minneapolis calling out to the public to maintain peaceful and stay rational, to “not get manipulated by Trump.”

The city of Minneapolis had been rioting since the thirty-seven-year-old woman, Good had been shot to death by ICE on the seventh.  The local authorities are claiming completely different things from the federal government agents.  There were already over 2,000 federal law enforcement officials sent to Minneapolis, the U.S. Homeland Security claims, that this is the largest deployment of immigration agents in U.S. history.

The police chief of Minneapolis on a press conference on the tenth stated, that the night previous, there were about 1,000 people that gathered outside of a hotel in protest, then it became a riot, the protesters threw the ice cubes, snowballs, and the rocks at the law enforcement officers, there were a total of twenty-nine who were arrested but were all released later.  Based off of the news, the hotel was one of the location of stay of the ICE agents.

There were also thousands who’d gathered in a local park in Minneapolis to protest.  The protesters told, that the gathering was to memorialize the loss of life of Good, calling the end to “the terrorist behaviors on the streets”.

like the No-KINGS march, spreading across the U.S.A, from YouTube

The Democratic governor, Walz also called out, that the locals should stay peaceful to protest; he’d stated that Trump had deployed thousands of armed law enforcement officials to his state, and it’d only been one day that they’d been here, and there were the locals who’d died, Trump wants to see the U.S. in chaos, to divert the American people’s attention from this horrifying behavior, “don’t fall for it”.

The sponsors of the protest stated, that just last weekend, there were thousands of protests across the U.S., demanding the deployments of immigrations officers across the U.S.’s cities.  All of these gatherings were cosponsored by A.C.L.U. and other organizations, and there were the organizations that led the No King’s Protest of last year.

And so, this is what Trump had, caused, with his hard hand, and of course this is going to rouse up the people, because you can get SHOT for NO reasons at all, because those ICE agents are without any restraints, under Trump’s orders, and people are, finally rising UP against his, tyranny, and that’s a good thing, but, I’m sure, that there will be more deaths, because there are always going to be the casualties of, war.

Trump Declared Venezuela as Entering into a State of Emergency, to Prevent Other Countries or the Debtors to Collect the Owed Assets by Confiscating the Country’s Resources

The glutton in Trump finally, “showed up”, and now, he’s, gulfing down the world, and nobody CAN stop him, he’d become, way too powerful to take down!!!  Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…

Trump signed the executive order, declared Venezuela entering into a state of emergency, with the purpose of “reserving” the courts or the creditors to confiscate the incomes related to the sales of the crude oil in Venezuela that’s deposited in the accounts set up by the U.S. in the U.S. treasury.

Reuters and Axios reported, that this executive order didn’t name the specific companies, only stated that the profits from the crude oil is the asset of the country of Venezuela, that the U.S. is only, “reserving it for now”, that the funds will be used in helping the Venezuelan government operate, and in its foreign affairs relations, not used for the claims of the creditors of Venezuela.

The WH confirmed on the 10^th, that based off of Trump’s executive order, the funds deposited into this account should be used for the internal affairs of Venezuela, to help make peace, stabilizing the economy as well as the politics.

it’s ALL MINE!!! Photo from online

The WH stated, that other countries that are creditors to Venezuela, if they ask for the compensations will endanger the U.S. and the goals of the U.S. for Venezuela “and it may increase the strength, the powers of, and the malicious actions of Iranian or Lebanese terrorist cells.”

The executive order stated, that if U.S. loses the control of the profit Venezuela makes from the crude oils, to allow the oils to get confiscated, the American forces that are currently working to stabilize Venezuela will get diminished, and it will damage the national security and diplomatic affairs of the U.S.  The executive order stated, unless there’s a special approval, otherwise, all confiscations, decisions, orders, other legal actions, will be null and void and unlawful.

The Marine Territories of Venezuela, Eleven Oil Rigs Sailed Passed the Blockade

But, satellite image analyses showed, that there are at least eleven oil rigs that are sanctioned by the U.S., passing the restricted boundaries set by the U.S., outside of the marine territories of Venezuela last week.

The independent oil rig tracking site, TankerTracker.com, used how much of the rigs are above water, determined, that of the eleven rigs, only one is completely empty, with the others transporting the oils out, roughly 9.4 million kegs.

And so, this is, the ROBBERY side of the American president, coming out, he’d used the justified EXCUSE that it’s for safekeeping for the people of Venezuela, that “we” keep your oil sales FOR you, and in reality, he’s going to, STEAL from the people of Venezuela, and there’s nothing that the world can do, because he’d used the excuse of, “it’s for your sakes, that I’m doing this for your own good!”

That Film of Gloom

This IS, a REAL thing, that many women will experience after they have their, babies, and it may not happen immediately after childbirth…translated…

I’m crying, again.

Not knowing how long it’ll last this time, or, when I will, stop, there’s this, mist in front of my eyes now, is it, fog?  Or cataracts?  I no longer have it inside me, to find out.  Every day is like a race that I’m running behind in: getting up breastfeed, burping, cooking, diapers, it cycled endlessly, this is not the life I’d, imagined for my, self.

Night came again, I stood by the desk, that night light glowing yellow is the only source of light in the, room, illuminating my loneliness in all of this, the white noise I put on, was more for my sake, so I don’t, get drowned by my own anxieties.  My infant is gulping down the milk from my breast, I’d, tried adjusting my breaths, exhaled, deep, to calm myself down more, so my milk can flow out, more easily, and prayed that this little guy, after he’s fed, he can, fall, drowsily, asleep, it didn’t matter if I got drained dry completely, I just want to, lie flat on my bed soon, to catch up on the zzz’s for a few short, hours.

Until much later I’d learned from my friend, that this was, postpartum depression.  So, it is, real, same as the regular depressive disorders, without a sign it comes, and leaves without a trace too, it doesn’t discriminate, it can happen to someone who’s well-provided for, a doctor’s, wife too.

My symptoms were unstable, and this anger, upset that comes out of nowhere, vanishes without a warning stayed with me for, two, years, I’d become like that ticking time bomb, can detonate at any moment of, time, then I got pregnant with my second child, and I’d told myself: I can’t be like this, again.

But as a migrated woman who is so far away from my home country, other than my teammates at work, I have, no other, social support, at most, I can only, videochat with my friends and families in Taiwan, to get rid of my own sullenness, other than that, I had to, find my own way, out.

In the process of finding my relief, a friend who also married to a foreign country like me, shared some of her homemade breads with me, that kindness and warmth, it’d, started my journey to baking, and, I’d become, a permanent customer.  The days that followed, I’d, circled around my own oven, as the aroma filled up my home from the bake, gently, embracing this, home, it’d, healed me slowly too, seeing how my families and friends enjoyed the breads, the cakes, and other snacks I’d baked, I’d felt, that sense of achievement, and it’d added the colors, back to my, life, and that gauze seemed to have, that tiny split in it, letting the light back, in.

That day, I was chatting about unimportant matters as my husband and I were driving down the freeway, I’d suddenly noted that that film is, slowly, disappearing, the trees by the sides of the roads no longer looked yellow only, the skies, no longer gray like when a storm is on its way, I’d not seen this bright a sunlight that’s blinding my eyes for a long, long time.

That’s when I knew I’m, out of the dark!

And so, postpartum is not so VOODOO excuse that we women make, for not wanting to do anything, it IS a real condition, and it’s still because of our hormone levels (and yes I’d already filed THAT complaint with my pituitary, and it hadn’t gotten back to me yet!), and there’s no way to speed this shit up, and all we can do, is to, wait it out, like riding out that, storm, and for some people, they NEVER get out of this postpartum depressive state, but this woman is lucky, that she, had.
