Introduction/Definition/etc
Some things have been going on
and other events,
etc...
Not exactly miscellaneous
(sp? as rarely spelled out from misc...)
but not exactly just one topic...
There might be a thread through it,
it could happen,
stranger things have...

Original Text
Blurb below would go in separate page
titled just above this, eventually?
So been getting food distributed,
but occasionally some other food appears,
in the lobby, near where the freecycle like
stuff used to be when there were tables
which is bewildering sometimes,
i may have been part of starting that,
leaving some stuff i didn't/couldn't use
out for others,
at the time it was dried black/ pinto etc beans
maybe onions, if someone asked, it might
have been donated, as they were collecting
and difficult to use before deep frying/
SmallFries2020
and miscellaneous (sp? there's that misc..
again, keeps popping up...)
So normally intended for other people
getting food distribution, as they
know what it is, unlabelled, bagged from bulk,
but there are other types of food distribution,
Meals on Wheels, likely prepared,
and some other overlapping FoodForOthers,
church based pantries, (mostly taken over by AFAC
which has been in the news with a PBS special
on how they are coping, PBS has facilities near
their warehouse, growing demand like with
some recent events, and some changes to how
things are distributed, packaged, etc,
while fund raising has decreased as that's
a gathering over 10 people,
and deemed non essential,
i think politician showed up,
but one local distribution has continued
in various forms, taking over the garage,
not as clean as the outside patio but
contained, bad lighting, noisy truck backup
sounds, and a nastiness at not wearing
a mask, to start, packed and wear by
the time getting to the line,
but a snap to Attention,
demeaning degrading quality
following sadistic
ZinebsPersonalTortureDungeon2020
so backdrop on that,
but closer to home
and finding extras, less going foraging through
clearance isles, done while out, anyway,
but less and less, Finds doing that,
as times are tight,
well 3 peanut butters, beans,
a big Kelloggs corn flakes cereal,
bagged, wondering if a home delivery
for seniors, and stopped at the front
could not get further, bu no name on it,
and this time i asked a (former) volunteer
while she was on the phone chatting away,
hand signalling bag to me, while another
was looking for deliveries, and maybe some
other activities around...
Waiting too long and maintenance trashes/
or does something with it, so only a certain
window of opportunity,
a door was propped,
with a metro smart card,
taking stairs, getting exercise,
not using elevators,
down is not too bad,
up is locked, and can't
someone may be going out to smoke
which has it's own problems,
propping doors very unpopular with me
random people wandering through
a big security concern, missing packages,
teens, gangs, up through seen on video
people killed/ shot, and have you seen
sort of looking for the perp notices
not that far away...
Along with that is kid like stuff,
snack food(s) small cereal single
serving, graham crackers
(3 in cracker like packet),
CRaisins flavored,
many 'not labelled for individual sale'
likely school lunch stuff,
and are kids leaving stuff out,
sitting there, go wander away
and come back,
but overhearing the conversation(s)
but not seeing parent to kid like,
maybe sometimes office staff
closed but there? talking/
are kids donating stuff,
taking care of their pet like elder(s)
which would be admirable,
but to the detriment of the family
who qualifies for donated food,
and don't like this, don't like that,
lets give it away, Christians might
consider it like tithing,
hood/gangs like pour out of the 40oz
for those lost, toast like,
and not sure about Muslims, other
cultures, as much, despite being around,
that may be more face to face,
this an anonymous drop with security
in between, some may be brought extra,
and basically what the (former?) volunteer
said, extra/ don't want,
so maybe peanut allergy, too much sugar,
i had found jelly discounted, waiting for the rest,
bread had gone very moldy in a couple days,
oh, and some bagels one time,
Harris Teeter, iirc, muntigrain,
and something to put on
eating that as breakfast while waiting in
hour+ long line, oppressive environment
rolling rollenator (sp?)
WelbyRollenatorWalker2020
on it's first bring a chair along and helps carry
besides what happened with 15+ miles
blistered feet, the up and down, and just
roll the chair, besides handles but needs
water bottle, reflector, lights all the usual(s)
for bicycles, and some WorkLight, etc
collected, how to P clamp a water bottle
on, etc,.. Nicely more than 200 pound limit,
most Asian/Chinese stuff is small,
this at least has a more reasonable
weight maximum, but don't push it,
at 200 pounds (hoping at least just under
and 40+ pounds of stuff, before bags
of groceries, or whatever bought,
carrying, might not be close,
a WheelChair is different, stay down,
this is a walker that rolls and has a seat,
the luggage cart stuff, no seat, usually,
some igloos/ coolers and waiting hour(s)
for food distribution, especially at the warehouse,
holiday weeks, and needed, since $19-20 or
despite carrying 6+ miles back bought and
assembled, and started to use...
first week, no chairs, by the time i got there,
so needed some but next week and they
had where they waned things/ people
and better damn well conform
while couching words, like would be safer
you have to, when recommended mask,
and since gave us a couple but laundry
and supplies, are low, go through a mask
or two in a day, while laundry is sometimes
once a month, if that, for some things,
given other problems recently washer(s)
down, competing and cramped space
people forcing way in, missing laundry,
appearing laundry after the fact,
other times finding other peoples clothes
in your dryer load, like someone adding
in to yours, knowing some don't even wash,
just want warm clothes, peed/ defecated in
washer, gang like problems,
kids making out there, likely attacks,
maybe rape, etc..
Anyways, overhear and concerned about
the kid being punished for trying to help people,
some precautions, maybe even suggesting
a chores and allowance, can't tell how old
the kid(s) are, and trying to hide,
spotted the great white predatory type hunting
varying all the ways slave game/
human trafficing (sp?),
we own him,
depending on the kid(s), ages,
hidden ethnicities (sp?),
preGang like initiation(s),
etc...
ConFounds are don't talk to kids,
don't talk period
someone(s) are usually listening in
Sardines like paper thin walls,
kids autonomy, making their own
decisions,
some are likely parentless,
some nearby are likely foster(s)
temporary homes, looking for that
forever home, like Tuesday's/Wednesday's
which ever days TV News shows (NBC4?)
And strict upbringing/ religious and culturally
defined, say Muslim, back to caning,
and other likely stereotypical
Plus strange adults should
(not a fan of Shoulding
(sounds like shit, no?)
on self or others, like it sounds)
not be talking to kids without parent/ guardians
present, kids on lockdown and bored to tears,
the other BWord, I'm bored, do some homework,
I'm bored, well, got yourself demerits,
i'm bored, your going to Juvi, i can't take it anymore,
it's better than here, dialog not that different
than what's been overheard, but not seen,
as like send off, and this placement time is up,
and off to bigger/ better, maybe just different,
and if testing and infection is nearby
home schooled, can't get out, and other
variables too numerous to even consider,
i've been hands off, typically Aspie
and don't touch anyways,
(+ shingles)
swatting away a kid
(pathologically?) trying to get
the train whistle, *T* want to try it,
these things are not shared, have to get your own,
while most realize mine, not their's
sharing info about it, and the sound,
like a clown nose, some sound like a
fart, the bike horn, mount broken
just carry usually in bike jersey back pocket,
quick reaction time(s) and knowing where it
is when muddled, rattled, bad traffic,
almost hit, etc... and other times just for fun,
when when see a kid, entertainment,
on to fairly constant and gets tiring to do,
but he didn't when don't something must be wrong,
and precedent, and other patterns it takes
a while to learn and then expect,
easier than thinking of what to say,
teaches some for biking/ walking
mult-use trail, and toddlers, etc
no wandering into
traffic lanes, sometimes going rather fast,
and trying to avoid two legged,
four legged/pawed animals,
and other obstacles, trash cans,
light/ telephone poles, curbs,
curb cut outs, debris, glass,
sign poles, etc...
so maybe kids are hanging around the lobby,
pre JustSayNoToConVid2020
waiting for school, some causing trouble,
most probably not, mostly with adults
around, younger kids, etc...
and security camera(s) monitor the entrances,
etc...
so food left out, i've known staff to buy some
stuff and leave it out, and free to anyone...
Some times don't take all, share,
other times, and now bagged, get rid of it,
before taken away by maintenance cleaners...
overnight vagrants, etc...
Some may think it's paying for protective
services, it's not with me,
big scary tall (ogre/ lurch/ etc) body
guard, protects, (has protection around?)
and bad things don't happen
boogie man/ under the bed like
bump in the night, on to noises anyways,
screeching cats, / racoon// skunk,
rats/ fox? etc...
Anyways, partially thanks,
some of the concerns, and nameless
(meaning of Nemo, FishDumb2020
fish like no name)
and somehow reaching the caregive(r)
about punishment/ alternatives,
chores, how to handle, giving is generally
a good thing, excessive giving
and reasons behind it,
moving on, a send off,
(whom? them? me?
many things i'm not even aware of
identities, on through and up to
ThePretender2018
and evil genius type stuff)
Very complicated and also simple
kid logic some adults, myself included
don't always understand...
Chores, allowance, withing acceptable
limits, we know we get, a,b,c, m, n,o,
p, q, r, ... x,y,z,
you don't like a, b, c, for whatever reasons,
Muslims don't do pork, say P,
we had extra, 1,2,3, from shopping,
and not wanting to waste food,
we have hungry people around, elders
disabled, etc being a good neighbor,
and some things don't fit, don't want,
and on through they were picking
recycling trash, some move out
cleared pantry, this can is not clean,
etc, to lets not waste it,
some Ethiopian, (stereotypical, etc
famine regions food is life, commodity,
currency) all rather confusing to know
what to do, accepting, and not
is waste (trashed by cleaning staff),
some variety, knowing what kids
are getting/ sometimes not
so the drama, some times enhances,
but sometimes rather obscure and made
up, punishment, you can't keep doing this,
giving away so much food,
i'm ready for my punishment,
this is nuclear, and all sorts of other stuff,
when seems on the outside to be a good
thing, giving to needy, some more than others,
and how that learning of taking care of elderly,
disabled, those unfortunate, etc
and missing school, social outlets,
isolated and pet old people on to
caring for others, is somehow a bad thing,
and limits, limit setting, say you can only
donate what you earn with allowance,
approved by parents/ guardian,
etc, whether anything is expected in return,
scared, protective, want to be written up
aka honorable mention, (say here?)
topics for discussion,
up through we want the cake
you just bought, (discounted
walked mile(s) to get,
falls on it's side,
and trading v. giving,
unreasonable expectations,
wishes, dreams, etc.
all parental / guardian
and concerned citizens like topics,
since not doing
ThereIsSomeThingWrongInWhoVille2019
child abuse reporting training,
volunteering with teens/preteens,
etc all that infrastructure and talking
to other(s), sponsors, how is this seen
from kids points of view, their own
internal structure of rules/ enforcement,
oversight, election(s), voting,
popularity contest, etc
etc...
Came upon a crash,
police already on scene,
bus and passenger car,
asked if anyone was hurt,
a supervisor on the walkie talkie/
cell phone talking to the oncoming
bus to i guess get the passengers,
tow truck, drive off to have repaired,
police writing up the report,
but right out side the what used to be
Shell gas turned AHC? Apartment
and main floor Montessori, kid
school down for JustSayNoToConVid2020
but drive by, wave, horn(s),
start warming up for going back,
phase 1, is when, Northern Virginia
Arlington got a 2? week extension,
still working on metrics of cases,
infected, testing, etc capacity planning,
so seemed to be told by police
a Right Hook, where a bus/
big vehicle needs to go right,
has to go further left to make a turn
since it's big, and something gets
hit on the right,
this may have been a parked car,
waiting, backing up on hill,
don't know, much info not known,
just what's police doing here,
we know him, want a witness,
you can take pictures, want to
be written up, makes the kid(s)
day(s), masked/ cowboy hatted
avenger, some excitement
the've been locked down for eternity,
it seems in kid time
the thaw, Alaska style their one
outing this month/ season,
can we go back to day care,
if work is happening kids need
to be take care of, and that's the place,
how SocialDistancing2020
does and doesn't work for certain
populations/ demographics,
etc, to be seen, not sure kids
will follow those ruies/ guidelines,
given they are kids, some may be
special needs, too bright for their own
good, my little angel/devil/
parental excuses,
walks on water
according to grandmother/father
etc...
I walked away, looking for my
fallen off pedometer, maybe the
double dutch oven (heavy cast iron
holding that and water gallon,
plus bag of a few things ,newer
hat, reusable metal straw(s),
with brush (back through the line
for that, seen in a cart by exit
and consider getting more,
extra brush needed? before next
year(s) AldiCantFind2019
)
Mysteries include:
who were those people?
who was pretending to be hurt
after the comment, and supervisor
no one was hurt, he's a comedy guy,
thought it would be funny,
shut up, by officer, someone
in the back of the cruiser?
walkie talkie mode and hearing
more than would otherwise,
as both in the pair are linked/
body worn camera(s)
passerby was not on the scene,
until after the fact,
nosy busy body,
wondering why police presence,
seemed like a lock down
hostage thing too,
kids in the day care?
a school / day care
and busy t stop,
traffic at a crawl along construction
western Columbia Pike
west of Phoenix,
new walk in Testing Site,
(blocks alley and rental bike with
police presence traffic cones,
walk through and cleanliness of
how to stay but not block access,
causes all the way round
and detours, hilly, dark,
etc...
is it 24 hour/ all 24x7x365?
or just while waiting line afternoons
in operation, cleaning and chemicals,
as park service, and run off,
fumes/ chemicals affecting nearby,
limiting entrances to high traffic,
garage, etc instead if were open,
might be becoming in wee(s)
with phase 1? etc...
Flags at half staff today by
Presidential order so trickles
down to State, and localities,
so having seen police in action,
my (now deceased) mother
trained at Federal for other stuff,
investigative/ research,
and other stuff going on,
Donuts are for getting bathroom access
and paying a bit, but with all those
closed, like other services,
just using the bathroom while on duty,
coffee break, boring paper worky
type fill out reports any union like
pacing selves in it for the long haul/
marathon not sprint events,
incidents, crimes, alternating
with why didn't i shoot that
(bad) guy/gal/ terrorist/ bounty/ wanted/perp,
when i had the chance i get one free
kill/ year/ decade, and didn't take it?
Damn community policing,
thought we got to do something,
found out it's a boring paperwork
job, job not done until paperwork
turned in, like the bathroom blotter/
graphitti (sp?)/ cutsie type
WelComeHome
embroidery stuff says...
Domestic violence and traffic
stops being the two most dangerous,
don't know what you're walking up onto,
could be wanted, could have a weapon
and that relationship is stormy
which is why we are here, love him/her
hate him/her, changes while one
is going to be taken away,
those are the rules/law(s),
domestic violence
get a time out like...
And the publics' impressions of what
we do/ don't do, how it's a job/
on the job, etc...
Coffee with a cop
on to Ride Alongs,
to Citizen's Academy type stuff,
civic engagement and including,
up through police involved shooting,
officer killed, in the line of duty,
etc...
not giving it it's proper attention,
too tired and down right now...
so much other concerns,
some of the other mess(s)
described above...
Etc
And a bunch of other things
difficulty getting that rats nest
of issues out, much less clearly,
and having some sort of opinion/
experience, etc...
All it's doing right now
is making me feel even more
tired, when all sorts of personal
concerns to be worked on myself,
but haven't had the energy for
even that self preservation/ care...

community involvement
involves, well getting into it,
some of which might be better to
stay out of,
no one hurt, therefore no lawyers,
major case, big payoff,
and some want witnesses,
your take on it,
having heard of VisionZero
and talking a lot
not sure what's up with that,
Minding My Own Business
used to be called can't walk a straight
line, managers, etc could not
go from office door to coffee
without getting roped into this
that or other in the office,
like a politican and lobbying
out and about and get into what
is and isn't going on in the community...
Pales by comparison to public servants
Peace/Police officers...
But not really something i signed up for,
is it?
Strap on a Badge and a gun,
and get spit at, shot at,
generally feared/ hated,
now add every cough/ sneeze/
physical threat may be
a Virus, any more than before?
Did i say i don't get paid for this
so mess isn't exactly my problem
is it? /WavesHand

Conclusion
Summary of experience or similar
Been there, done that,
can't do it again?
Tired and worn out about stuff,
mostly my own, but get handed
other peoples' issues,
public facing and
now going back to crawling under a rock?
Hermit like, leave me alone...

How your tax dollars are being spent,

what problems continue given
x Millions spent to fix?
How can a cop just say Beat it,

Or was that what they said,
Pre Election days?
Post Election Days?
Or is it all like ThePlunderers
