ok. I'm tired of dwelling on man's inhumanity to man (apologies to the ladies, I'm just using olde languge).  I'm tired of debating Hillary versus Bernie, and wringing my proverbial hands at the excesses of Trump.  But mostly, I'm tired of a treadmill economy and the denigration of work.  If you are not... the 1% of the 1%, then you are a failure,  a big, fat failure.  I don't accept it.
Even when rent/mortgage/DWP is due and I'm dancing as fast as I can... and certain friends (non-friends?) unabashedly advise me that my skills with computers/programming/engineering are sadly out of date;  and that I am useless in any capacity to them.  Because it may be true; but I refuse to believe that in a general case I am useless.
