Another Announcement: Health and Blogging

Partly back.

Concerning this past announcement, I have the following to say (obviously I am not going to give details of my situation or my private life).

I have decided that - at least for now - I am going to come back to some extent to blogging and social media.

I am not going to be blogging and engaging in social media to the same extent as I did before. That especially will be the case after I exhaust some of the pre-written posts I created during my down time. After all, how many times do I have to demonstrate the madness of Der Movement and the ineptness of the Quota Queens? Now, certainly, yes, I will continue to call out the more egregious cases of "movement" stupidity and, in particular, will call out lies and misinformation that affect the agenda and objectives of the Sallis Groupuscule.  But there's no need to respond to every single "movement" incident or comment. Positive activity, whenever and wherever possible, should be preferred over a purely negative critique.

Getting back to the main point about resuming online activity, basically I have realized that my medical issues are ongoing; there is not going to be any endpoint where I can realistically say "I'm healthy now." Even if I was deluded in thinking that some healthy endpoint was achieved, I would soon be cured of that delusion. I still have medical issues, will need to go for more medical appointments, maybe will need more surgery in the future, will definitely need ongoing testing and surveillance; as stated, I still have serious ongoing health issues and those are not going away.

However, if I was to wait until such a mythical "healthy" endpoint was reached, I would never post again. So, I may as well start activism again, at least to some extent. I will do what I can, when I can. If I need to take more time off, I will do so. But, as stated above, I will be more efficient.

One lesson you should learn from my health problems is that younger readers should take advantage of their youth and health when they have it. Once they age, they will start disintegrating like a radioactive isotope, with each "half-life" of physical decay featuring another crisis. It doesn't matter if they, like me, eat right and exercise. They'll still break down. 

We are all headed to the same destination - the grave - but what we do before then is what is important.

We all need to do our best.

And there's another issue here that I will need to carefully consider going forward - the issue of legacy and ideological continuity. The Quota Queens are more or less fungible; if one "movement" "leader" dies, or leaves activism for any other reason, they would be quickly and easily replaced by a nearly identical substitute - similar background, similar ideology and dogma, similar strategy and tactics, similar attitudes, etc. In my case, that would not occur; there is no substitute.  There needs to be an expansion of the Sallis Groupuscule, but without compromising its core principles - pan-Europeanism, Salter-Yockey ideological fusion, futurist, scientific "materialism" and empiricism, rational, etc.
