I’ve been trying to work on my RAND and SeaLight document, but I can’t seem to get into it. I’m still not feeling well, either. For some reason, I can’t format my document on my iPhone the way that I would like, and I still can’t use my iPad for it. This morning, my iPad fell out of its mount and landed on my face. No worries, my ego was hurt more than my nose. To be honest, I’ve about lost all interest in it. If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? I feel like that tree. The tree makes a sound, but no one is around to hear it fall. Who has time to worry about details, anyway? I barely do anymore, and I’m unemployed. I’m going to stop now before I have to get the violin out.
I’ve noticed that there were protests in Indonesia over the VAT increase. I haven’t seen much that would indicate a U.S.-backed color revolution. I’ve only seen one notable social media influencer and one organization that’s been funded by USAID and the Omidyar Network, quoted as objecting to the increase. There were some agitators throwing burning tires, and the protesters refused to stop the protests when they were supposed to. Afterward, some pushing happened between the protesters and security, who were supposedly unarmed. If anyone wants more sources, they’re in this document.
