Words for Dictionary

Pfui! – variant spelling of phooey: an exclamation of disgust, aversion, dislike, contempt, or annoyance.

Thievery – A more common way to say thievery is theft, or in a police report, larceny. It’s easy to see where the word thievery comes from — to thieve is to steal, and both words come from the Old English root þeof, or thief.

Insight for Schizo Mental Illnesses

So, I’ve had some time to think about Mental Illness. I must have some insight about it.

Who ever said Schizo-Affective has to differ from Schizophrenia by a mood component. I’m Schizo-Affective and I have to say I don’t get it. I have no mood component.

In recent DSMs the Schizo Mental Illnesses are together in one diagnosis. Staff is stopping the Schizo-Affective Mental Illness Diagnosis. They have to because for Schizo-Affective there is no differentiating mood component.

  • Schizophrenia (FF-SF)
  • Schizo-Affective (FF-SS)

I don’t have a mood component. Staff is wrong.

Taking Complaints has official text, accepted rhetoric in referring to Mental Illness. There is a hereditary table there too. I am sure it is interesting.

Comment: May 13, 2024; There is another less clear writing in an earlier post. I’m trying to understand the Schizo-Affective Mental Illness: https://gevluef.com/2015/07/10/on-mood/

Aunt Vel

My Aunt Vel died a year ago on October 21, 2022. She was cremated and is not a service. Before she died, she felt especially negative about my given name Jeffrey Devitt. She needed to realize that I have a Pi in my name. I explain Pi a little bit in the biography page of my blog; Gevluef.com. She died not knowing that a pretty girl could ease her concerns about me. But no. she knew Pi but she never realized that Pi is one of the solutions to the Devitt family name. Please make sure that Pi is realized as not doing so is a liability.

Aunt Vel’s dates are:

    1. October 21, 2022
    2. July 31, 2023
    3. June 28, 2025 (see comment below)
  • Philosophy of Husserl; See Christmas Card 2022.
  • pi (π) Greek letter; See Pumpkin Pie Christmas Card 2024.
  • Dzi Beads
  • Crusader
  • Good one
  • Moral
  • Essence

Comment: June 28, 2025: Aunt Vel contacted Social Security as a way of complaining about me. Since one of the remedies is to learn Philosophy, I chose three Philosophers for her service. They are:

Edmund Husserl
David Hume
John Locke

My thinking here is Philosophy 123.

Pumpkin 418

The Dalmatian is subdued with Pumpkin or Pumpkin Spice. Please, if you are having trouble with Dalmatians try this easy remedy. Pumpkin 418.

Not all Dogs are Dalmatians.

The reason I think this about Dalmatians is because of the Pet insurance company Pumpkin Insurance: https://www.pumpkin.care/

Also, there is a book: Cammer, MD Leonard. Up From Depression, Simon and Schuster, New York, 1969.

This post is linked to a post about the Disney movie Cruella on June 5th, 2024

Problem with Devitt

Now my given surname is DEVITT. In this blog I wrote the Pi into the name, but other people don’t have the benefit of an explanation. Where do people see the name if not in this luxurious blog? The answer is obvious to people in my family but not so obvious to the reader. You would see the name when the family member buys something; either on the check or the VISA card.

Remember the first rule of service, “Never question a name?” Well, this one gets a lot of resistance. The Pi in the name comes with a great effort. People remember the name and build the Pi into it after trials and tribulations. However, some of the best customer service people get it right away. Many people who have helped me will never get it because they can’t see it as I have a changed name. Besides I rarely buy things. That’s okay, I’m not that proud of the name and people are having me when a family member spends money anyway.

You wouldn’t think that a Pi would be that important of an idea. With Devitt, it makes a big difference when a service is being offered. Hemingway developed thinking that Pi is something bad. I tend to agree with him because it is possible to get an F3; where Pi is basically three-something. For that to have any meaning, the reader will have had to have read my blog posts that deal with mental illness and the conscience. Basically the no-brainer is that people in my family are spending money painfully. It is all on the line when someone buys something with the name.

Intervention 9192

If intervention, then gather facts. There are enough facts in 9192 to warrant fact gathering for an outside viewer. The determinant in this case is Elizabeth’s response to my approach; that was intervention to what was intended. The bouncer helped Elizabeth. That may have been intervention of a certain kind, but may have been more than what was needed. After all, all I had in mind was what my sister told me. It would have been perfect if the situation played out without intervention. This is not a perfect event. That is why I have provided as many facts as I can remember.

9192

I’ve been stretched over Elizabeth’s back. She tried to flip me over, but I was drunk and pretty much dead weight. I let out a humph. That was at the Sonic Youth concert where they were presenting Thurston’s Bridal with the album Goo.

I got to that point from leaving the crowd in front of the stage. I was feeling sick and thought I needed some air. As I left the stage area the crowd thinned out. I thought about what my sister had told me; that she liked getting felt up in crowds. I saw Elizabeth out in the open and went toward her. The crowd is a pushy contact sort of experience and I don’t think I adjusted to the lesser. So when she saw me coming towards her, she took my arm combatively and tried to flip me over her back.

I met Elizabeth again in Seattle, Washington at Community House Mental Health. We talked indirectly about the Goo concert. She knows me socially and knows a lot about medications. The doorman was also at Community House. His area of expertise was employment. He remembered me because I talked to him right before getting kicked out of the Goo concert.

The bouncer took me to the doorman by dragging me backwards by my heels. I said to him,  “I have to find my sister. I can’t get kicked out. I have to find my sister!” The doorman was really nice to me.

“Why, what happened?” I asked. He replied, “You don’t know do you.”

Outside, I found the car and crawled underneath. I was scared and thought no one would find me there. When the concert ended, my party including my sister returned to the car. I heard her asking, “Where is Jeff?” I was underneath the car.

I got carsick on the way back to grandma’s house. I stopped listening to Sonic Youth and most Rock-n-Roll in general. That little escapade stopped me from listening to the Downsiders.

Just a little background about when this happened; this took place after my girlfriend cheated because my sister and her boyfriend were living in Santa Cruz. That was the summer of 1989. I began the Xiphoid and painted approximately a year and a half later. For most people though this time coincides with the publishing of Sonic Youth’s album Goo.

Comment: August 30th, 2024: I found my sister sufficiently on August 9th, 2024, I realized Kant’s Categorical Imperative. This is also expected to satisfy the Eye and Mind essay by Maurice Merlot Ponty, 1965.

The Laurel House

Progress Place umbrella of services included a transitional house for clients until they get independent housing: Laurel House at 3133 Laurel Street in Napa California. I stayed there a few months in 1995. What that house has is an old water softener system that isn’t being used. The staff knows about this feature because in the garage there is six fifty pound bags of rock salt from when the system was working. The rock salt is a remnant collecting dust and cobwebs. I think I knew about that when I was there; but, I surely didn’t forget it for six years after. Laurel House made a big impression on me. And, I really appreciate getting to stay. Thank you Laurel House!
