Panpsychism - while not always actually malevolent, definitely grumpy

So. I have conflicting beliefs about just about every damn thing.

While I believe/suspect that the personality is dissolved upon death, I also believe that everything, including wingnuts, has consciousness, and that the more immobile it is, the more frustratedly cantankerous it is about it.

Remember the built-for keyboard that packed it in? Well, I bought an el cheapo wireless logitech, plugged it in, and resumed protected computing - aaaaaand the original keyboard started working again. I know this because both keyboards were creating input during a very confusing foray into typing. So, now I am using the original, with the other one put away where the original can see it. It are a funny old world, yessir.

My back/intestine thing is so much better, but it still ain't "normal". I still can't sleep in my bed. As soon as I recline in a flat way, twinges start in the ground zero original twingey place. After half an hour, major pain on the other side wakes me up, and getting out of bed is *incredibly* painful - like evil demons stabbing me a lot painful. These linger and need to be coaxed to go away (FCVO go away - meaning: never completely). I am wondering whether some of the pain is from levering myself up. I have been sleeping (FCVO sleeping) in a big reclining chair, which has motorized movement. It returns me to a sitting upright position without any effort on my part. Therefore I suspect that a fancy folding bed won't actually help because one still needs to lever one's self up.

I am suspecting cantankerous things with regard to the bed. Never ever ever have I had a back ache from this bed. Just never. Then, one little bout with the death-flu, and here we are. Hah.

Oh, I definitely ascribe consciousness to inanimate objects. It's actually been a problem for me in the past. I'm sorry your bed is cursed.

It is well known at work that some of the copiers are scared of me, mostly because if they misbehave I remind them that it's a long drop into the river next to our building.
