Anyway... It is complicated. Of course. Like... The map of the land that was so accurate you couldn't unroll it for fear of upsetting the farmers.
I do feel that I got sufficient time and... Help. Yeah. Help from my sisters and my uncle and help from the various nurses and doctors and hospice people...
To process and to grieve.
Yeah.
I really did not deal at all well with my Father's death. I suppose because I was isolated from support, really, once I left NZ. And I left NZ too soon to come to terms with the fact that he was dying... And then when I was back in the USA the thing about them expecting me to be teaching about euthanasia and grading essays the day of the funeral...
I wasn't capable of being objective in grading essays on that topic on that day...
That was the thing of it, really. And it seemed disrespectful to my Father for me to be in a rational headspace about something... Esoteric... It seemed... Inhumane... It seemed... Not in the spirit of Kant at all, for me to be grappling with understanding Kant or interpretations of Kant on that day.
Anyway...
The NY Times says that the author of ''The Bone People'' died.. At the young age of 74. The elite white minority who are paid to be literary authors and literary critics did not like her writing because they judged her (part Maaori) to not be Maaori enough or not be authentic with her Maaori or whatever. As they do. They get paid. Not her. They grubbity grub grub up all the money and after she's been working on her 'apprentice work' (LMFAO) for 17 years they garbage garbage rubbish rubbish it. To justify why they grubbity grub grub up all the money and titles and esteem and power and privalede for them and their in-group of inbred monkeys.
It appears to be the Kiwi way.
