Infographic created by Visual Capitalist using data from Investopedia, with design credited to Voronoi. The infographic is titled “The American Dream Costs $5,043,323.” In the center, a large circle displays the total estimated lifetime cost of the American Dream. Surrounding it are eight colored wedges, each showing a category and its associated cost: Retirement ($1,636,881) with a cartoon man relaxing in a chair; Owning a Home with a 30-year mortgage and 20% down payment ($957,594) with a “Welcome” doormat; Owning a Car, assuming buying or financing two new cars every 10 years ($900,346), illustrated with a man driving; Raising Two Kids to age 18 plus four years of public college ($876,092) with a family illustration; Healthcare spending from ages 22–85 ($414,208) with a prescription bottle; Vacations annually from ages 22–85 ($180,621) with a travel icon; Pets—one dog and one cat for 11–13 years ($39,381) with pet illustrations; and a Wedding including engagement ring, ceremony, and reception ($38,200). At the bottom, a horizontal bar chart shows what percentage of Americans include each category in their “dream”: Retirement 86%, Healthcare 86%, Owning a Home 85%, Raising Two Kids 78%, Owning a Car 72%, Vacations 71%, Pets 66%, and Weddings 55%. The design uses retro-style illustrations and muted pastel colors.

Good Grief! Where Have I Been All This Time‽ My life was briefly put on hold, thanks to a certain virus, but now I’m back, more cheeky & cynical than ever! So much for new beginnings. A week after my knee surgery, just as I was able to feel more human than sore, I became sick. Then sicker. Then sicker still. A quick visit to the InstaCare on a quiet Sunday evening ushered me into my new life of exhaustion and fatigue. I’ve had five or six COVID–19 tests since the pandemic began. They were almost beginning to feel routine. That Sunday night was no different. I showed up to pick up my pre-registered self-test, then opted to be seen instead because I felt lousy. I didn’t think I had COVID–19 because I was vaccinated, but I had something. I thought it was strep throat. I waited outside. They called me in when they were wearing their biohazard suit. I had my vitals recorded. They decided to test for Strep as well as COVID–19. I waited some more. I’ve been there before. Multiple times doctors would tell me, “Oh, 85% I’m sure you’ve got COVID”, and I’d test negative. Every time. They just didn’t understand how sick I get. Respiratory illness is my raison d’être . A virus only has to pass by the front of my home on the other side of the street, and I’ll be bedridden for a week. I’d made progress in recent years. I’d enjoyed traveling, longboarding, and shrugging off colds after a day, but the pandemic made me unhealthier. I couldn’t get out. Couldn’t exercise. It was as if the pandemic lay on my Major Depression Disorder like an anvil, then pushed my Persistent Depression Disorder down the stairs. It helped my sleep phase disorder knock me around the clock like a hockey puck. I was back to be being sick more often than healthy again. When the test came back positive for SARS-CoV–2, I was irritated. “C’mon!” I thought. “I followed all the rules. I wore that stupid mask. I got my shots!” Yeah, but Delta didn’t care. From what I’ve read, it had a different protein spike than the one American vaccines targeted. Delta’s path to me was logjammed with vaccines, all of which it vaulted over grimly and with grace. Apparently, my brother’s mother-in-law went to a party, came home and gave Delta to her husband. Then they waited to get better because they couldn’t possibly have COVID–19. They were vaccinated! Everyone says get vaccinated or you’ll endanger your grandparents, as if the vaccine is a magical potion that wards off evil, but the grandparents ended up sharing the virus with their eleven-year-old grandson, who then shared it with his daddy, who then shared it with me. All of us except my nephew were vaccinated—twice. Can I be dramatic for a moment (as if I wasn’t already over the top). I’d never been sicker in my life. It was like pneumonia and the flu had a baby in my lungs then beat me down with its diapers. I’ve been bronchial all my life, but I’d never experienced anything like this. Even watching TV or reading a book took too much energy. I was miserable. Getting air into my lungs was exhausting at times. COVID–19 weaponized my comorbid conditions, then waged war on my health. With the time recovering from surgery followed with COVID–19, I’ve lost five weeks of my life. Fun times. Now that I’m on the mend, I’ve begun taking back my life, putting out fires, getting things back on track…and sleeping at all the wrong times of the day when I collapse, battery depleted. Things couldn’t be worse if radioactive meteors began to rain down upon me every time I ventured out to check the mail. Don’t worry, though. My spirits are up even considering all I’ve been through. Being melodramatic is all part of my therapy. Next time I’ll tell you about my comical trip to the ER for the monoclonal antibody treatment. Being in danger of a heart attack was never so hilarious. Just make sure you have “Yakety Sax” playing in the background while you read along. In the meantime, I hope you enjoyed the first sunset that I beheld in ages, venturing outside on my own for the first time since this whole ordeal began.

I am hearing of #readers, that actually read, but have a hard time playing the book as a #movie , or a connection of sequences in their head as they read. I find that sad. Somehow something, in a the act of reading/ #visualizing has been lost. That worries me.

Expanding Aphantasia Definition: Researchers Propose New Boundaries Researchers expand aphantasia definition beyond "inability to visualize." This broader framework impacts how we understand and identify with the condition.

Some new parameters for the definition of #Aphantasia. I fit the bill for what they want to call Global Aphantasia.

Unusual visual-spatial skills

Some autistic people may love making plans/models/art/embroideries/maps, or even (for some) making & fixing things.

I'm pretty good at assembling flat-pack furniture 😊
