I was going to say travel, but in this era of quarantine... sigh...

I guess now I would spend all that time with my new boyfriend, doing as many things on our to-try list as we can. Also, reconnect with family and friends who mean a lot to me - at least I can still call them. I wouldn't do any work. Plus, wrap up any possible legal affairs (i.e. arrange for my parents to get a key to my current apartment so they can get all my things, transfer all my money to... to... I have no idea, but to someone...)

SAPBM,

Same question, it's a good one

Relax. After all, everyone else is going at the same time, right?

"When you attend a funeral,
It is sad to think that sooner or
Later those you love will do the same for you.
And you may have thought it tragic,
Not to mention other adjec-
Tives, to think of all the weeping they will do.
But don't you worry.
No more ashes, no more sackcloth.
And an armband made of black cloth
Will some day never more adorn a sleeve.
For if the bomb that drops on you
Gets your friends and neighbors too,
There'll be nobody left behind to grieve.

And we will all go together when we go.
What a comforting fact that is to know.
Universal bereavement,
An inspiring achievement,
Yes, we all will go together when we go.

We will all go together when we go.
All suffuse with an incandescent glow.
No one will have the endurance
To collect on his insurance,
Lloyd's of london will be loaded when they go."
- Tom Lehrer

Way back when all the Avengers resigned except Captain America. Then 3 villains joined with him to be the Avengers.

All the Justice League resigns except Batman. What 3 DC villains would you have join the Justice League to form Bats Kooky Quartet?

Major Disaster, I thought his joining was a good idea in Morrison's run and in the Giffen funny League.
Pied Piper. I liked the developments with him becoming an ally to the Flash. Also liked him being gay.
Windfall. Maybe she would still be alive if she hadn't gone to the Suicide Squad...

SAPBM,

What is a disturbing fact about a historical figure that is generally regarded as a good person?

I don't have the time to thoroughly fact check this, so I'm just sharing the article with the caveat: I am not a historian and cannot vouch for the veracity

https://boredomtherapy.com/historical-figures-questionable-pasts/

The most disturbing for me, was the claim that Abraham Lincoln initially opposed the Emancipation Proclamation. I had a mighty good view of him before that.

SAPBM,

A lighter topic: when the COVID-19 pandemic gets under control (let's say that happens in 2 years), where will you take your first vacation?

Initially Lincoln was more concerned with preserving the Union than freeing slaves. And he waited until a Union victory to announce the Emancipation Proclamation so it would not seem like a desperation move.

As for where I would vacation, I would probably go back to Australia

SAPBM,

What is a good show to binge watch?

I am a big fan of Avatar: The Last Airbender. Good balance of drama, humor, etc.

SAPBM,

Same question

In the Flesh

It follows a zombie apocalypse that has been contained and the zombies (Partially Deceased Syndrome suffers) reintegrated into society. The main character is Kieren Walker who comes back to his family.

The first series is only 3 episodes and the second series is 6 episodes. Series 2 ends with a cliffhanger but they never made series 3. Still a great series with not too many episodes to watch.

SAPBM,

What did you want to do for a living when you were a child?

Wanted to be an astronaut, for some reason. then i realized there's so much to see on Earth, I would rather keep my feet on the ground so to speak

SAPBM,

Which season is your favorite and why?

Summer. Because I hate the cold.

SAPBM,

What is something that really annoys you?

people not listening

SAPBM,

What kind of pet would you like to have, if you didn't have to worry about practicality and care (assume you will be given all the resources you need to care for them)

I would go with a kangaroo When I was in Australia, I took a wildlife tour. The bunch of us tourists were standing looking at some kangaroos and they stood there looking at us. Then they got bored and turn around and head away,

SAPNM,,

Who would you have as president of Earth?

I always thought Reboot RJ Brande was a great president. I would certainly follow him

SAPBM,

If you could only eat one type of cuisine (e.g. Italian, Japanese, Mongolian, Filipino) for the rest of your life, what would it be?

Ooh! Italian! PIZZAAAAAA!

SAPBM,

If you could stream the entire cinema of a country other than the U.S. of A., which country would that be?

Japanese. Would watch a lot of anime

SAPBM,

What costume would you like to wear for Halloween?

Sexy Invisible Man.

SAPBM,

If you could make one thing disappear from the world and history, what would it be and why?

So you will dress up as me? ;-)

One thing disappear - I would say hatred for other human beings. We have way too much, and I just don't get it. Hatred of others because they are different and don't fit in. Humans can be so weird.

With the recent news about the Pope possibly saying something that could potentially be construed as supporting civil unions for gay couples (I say possibly and potentially because I have already seen articles arguing a watered-down interpretation that the Pope is only saying LGBT people deserve love and respect), ... yeah. let's just say the comments from many people in the Philippines reinforced my decision to never live there again. Only visits.

SAPBM,

what is your favorite holiday and why?

As corny as it sounds, I like Christmas best. Yes, the religious aspect is important to me. I also enjoy the family meal and giving presents. It's sentimental, but it's like for me the whole world is all right for a day.

SAPBM,
Who was one of your first celebrity crushes?

Jake Gyllenhaal is one that comes to mind, always thought he had such cute doe-eyes



SAPBM,

What is one thing you wish you had always said to someone, and always regretted that you haven't?

"So, tell me all about your life," to older relatives no longer with us, as I sit back and give them my undivided attention for as long as it takes.

What positive changes to your life have there been following lockdown?

that is a sweet and thoughtful answer, thothy!



Moved in with my man during lockdown (I realize I will need to give him an LMB code name at some point...). We got along so well during the first week together, that we quickly made our relationship official.

I also started a new job during lockdown...

When lockdown lifted I went back to the gym and improved my diet, so while not yet at my pre-lockdown level of fitness, I am getting there!

SAPBM,

same question

Just as everything was opening up, I took a very early retirement from my job of 23 years and have been able to work part-time since then and concentrate on my family and writing.

SAPBM,
