Almost Survived 2025
Well 2025 is almost done. It’s hard to believe I have survived another year. I was very anxious about the year but I seem to have got through it ok. I haven’t been in a psychiatric hospital this year which is brilliant. I spent so many years in and out of them but since 2023…

Things are going ok
Well it’s been a very hot summer this year in 2025. The BBC reported that it’s likely been the hottest UK summer on record by a significant margin. I particularly struggle with this flat as it gets very hot but I do benefit in the winter. During the hottest periods I have had my portable…

I Wrote to my MP
I recently wrote about the Benefit Reforms recently and how they could affect me. I think a 4 point score requirement for one descriptor is too harsh and excludes people with mental illness and autism who tend to be affected in more breadth across all the descriptors scoring 1 to 2 points.

A Poem about me
A poem I wrote about me using ChatGPT (AI) In Southend-on-Sea, by the rolling tide,Lives a man named Shaun, with Star Trek pride.A collection vast, on shelves displayed, DVDs and Blu-rays, a media parade.Each Sunday morn, as bells do chime,He finds his peace, in sacred time.Communion bread, the wine so fine,A moment’s pause, divine and…

Typical Days
I had a nice day today. Exactly what I needed. I went for a short walk and stayed alone at home. Watched Television, mainly dogs, The Simpsons and sometimes news on in background. I did reading of CS Lewis in Christianity. Will do some Bible reading shortly and prayers. That’s how most of my days…

The Rich and AI
For a very long time the three factors of production in classical economics were Land or natural resources, Labour and Capital. Today the four factors for production in a modern economy are Land, Labour, Capital and Entrepreneurship. Marx had similar views to the classical economists. Since the late 20th Century much automation has removed the…
