Now what

                                                           Remember that WW II was "The War to end all Wars" and there must have been a corollary :  `There will never be another Hitler` .   Here's another of my pet expressions ;  "How did things get so fucking fucked-up ?"   Good question .

                           The WORLD "jumped in" to rescue itself from the FLOOD of Nazi-ism , and the Ocean of Suffering it pumped into and onto a (mostly Innocent) naive World .    Academic Apathy appears as Universal .  There was Outrage expressed, sorta, but NO Plan or Strategy was devised and certainly no REAL Effort was  exerted  to STOP trump despite trump's egregious World-Splitting Actions .   Logic dictates that we see the World's Leaders as offspring of , you guessed it, MY Generation .   2 words, Un-Deniable .

                            Recall , "In times of Peace, prepare for war, in times of War prepare for Peace."   Well......here we are .   

                            Now what ............ .

                             

"There ain't no cure for the Summertime Blues" -- The Who

                                                           It was George Santayana who wrote, "Those that cannot remember the Past are condemned to repeat it." .   It can be found in his Life of Reason, which he penned in 1905, [according to my search engine 'Co-Pilot'] .   I have used his observation extensively and obviously consider it Truth , but is it >True< in all cases and in all instances ?   

                            My Generation protested Viet Nam .   The Protesting was national, meaning EVERY College and University Protested and the FEELING that the War was UN-JUSTIFIED was ubiquitous .   Ya-wanna believe that the FEELING produced by War is Universal, and should be Condemned BY EVERYONE  including  those  Students of Academia .    So what happened ?     Why haven't they Protested ?  

                           In the previous blog I mentioned My Generation and the uneasy sensation I experienced because of a Thought that MY Generation was "at fault" for what appears as 'Academic Apathy' .   These Students, these kids, ARE the offspring of one-time hippies gone the way of Yuppification ---  OF COURSE MY Generation is at Fault, who else COULD IT BE ???  

Molt or Mutation ?

                                                           I had no plans to write this morning -- I'm going through some sort of 'molt' , the kind where the old is no longer serviceable but the new has undergone what I think is a mutation .   There's a GREAT 'line' ;  "Some people change, some people mutate."   I love that .  I am a mutation .

                           Yesterday while I was trying to raise a 500 rock into place on top of a much larger boulder, I had a sickening sensation that it was MY Generation that is responsible for the Present Day American Crisis of Truth Evaporation .    Keep in Mind I AM a "Child of the 70's" the EARLY 70's to be specific ---  I was at U.Conn. from 1970 to 1974 and was subject to the Hippie >Movement< which is code for a Drug Using Sub-Culture , and of course the Anti- War Movement, a response to Viet Nam .   Normally I would shrug off such a consideration because of Because .   I'm no fan of Hippies, I'm like "Cartman" of "South Park" notoriety whose distaste for all things Hippie defines his Existence .   In my Mind, the Hippie Movement FAILED except for one HUGE component =  The War Protest , and THAT may be the "Saving Grace" of Hippiedom, and then again, it may NOT .

                         2 words :   Hippies became Yuppies .   Not good .

Miss Hap

                                                           In many ways Obama was a "can opener", meaning he "opened up a can of worms" --- he freed the Minds of MILLIONS to express their True Selves, which, as it turned out, was the BIRTH of the 2nd Confederacy, a Confederacy that was NEVER Defeated in the first place , a Confederacy whose sole {Soul} Objective was the DESTRUCTION of Northern Democracy Ideology in such a way as to ensure a RETURN of an "Antebellum" South and ALL its HATRED .   Here it is where "we" learned  that "there are more of them then there are of 'us' ".   They elected trump  TWICE !!!  So much RAW POWER -- so much HATRED,  so much FURY .   

                           If it can be said that Lincoln freed the Slaves, it must also be said that Obama freed the South .   It can't get no uglier .   There ain't-gonna be no greater SORROW .

"the Young and the Restless"

                                                           Elsewhere I have contended that if Obama HADN'T been elected there would be no trump .   I and Others, insist that the election of trump wasn't just a "backlash" it was a WHITE-LASH, meaning, at least HALF THE NATION went clinically BERSERK, when Obama was Elected---folks were INCENSED that a "nigger" `got into` Office and when trump "entered the scene"  they found their man--   >A< "man" who would serve their purposes, quite nicely .   Many DO NOT WANT ANY  connection between Obama's Election and that of trump ---I reject their rejection .

                           FROM OUT OF NOWHERE {it seemed} folks were "showing their TRUE colors", the colors of RAW HATRED and FURY .   They "came out of the woodwork" to vote for their man, a RASCIST, a White Supremacist, a Bigot, and a "man" whose HATRED of Women, especially STRONG Woman, {Strong BLACK Women} resonated with an entire generation of misfits and ne'er-do-wells, whose own weaknesses found mirror and echo in trump's .  Some say it was THIS hideous "Band of Indigents" who "turned" the Election over to trump and his .  It's tough to deny this 'charge' .

Obama

                                                           Let's not go too crazy over Obama, what he did, and didn't do, and his legacy .   Don't get me rwong* -----yet .   I like the guy. I like what he tried to do but I want to make sure "both sides" get 'heard' .   

                              He ran on ending the War in Afghanistan but the Mil told him there would be DISASTROUS Consequences, so he didn't .   As I just wrote, he focused on the ACA and to his credit, it 'went through' .  However the War `raged` and BILLIONS were spent in Afghanistan to build a society and culture that could be recognized as something of an American colony .   We know how THAT ended .

                              I need to remind my Gentle Readers that when putin INVADED Crimea Obama and his World Friends DID NOTHING but condemn putin in "the strongest terms" .   They handed Crimea 'over-to' putin ...no questions asked .   Within months putin marshalled troops along the Ukraine border, and STILL Obama and his World Friends stood by and did NOTHING .  We know how THAT ended .

                             As far as Obama's Nobel Peace Prize 'went', Obama had his finger on the "Kill" button and he pushed that Button HUNDREDS of times, KILLING 'perceived' Enemies , WITHOUT any Declaration of War, at least Any I can recall .   He was a Killer, albeit LEGALLY (and some would argue ILL -LEGALLY) which is NOT "a bad thing" {that's bullshit it IS a bad thing}, since we paid him for such hideously ugly "Wet Works" as the CIA is fond of using to describe "Black Ops" those where DEATH is the chosen form of action .  

                            Obama ain't no Saint------------not even close .

Miss Givings

                                                           64.  Wei Chi  /   Before Completion

                            "The victory has been won .  The power of steadfastness has not been routed .  Everything has gone well .  All misgivings have been overcome .  Success has justified the deed .  The light of a superior personality shines anew and makes its influence felt among men who have faith in it and rally around it .  The new time has arrived, and with it good fortune .  And just as the sun shines forth in redoubled beauty after rain, or as a forest grows more freshly green from charred ruins after a fire, so the new er appears all the more glorious by contrast with the misery of the old."

                           2 words :   Don't we wish ... .

The SHUN

                                                           Yesterday there was an 'image' of trump wandering about the Group of G7 presidents .  The  image  was  broadcasted  at  least  once  an  hour  and  was  cause  of  poignant >Concern< .   Trump looked terrible .  He appeared  bloATED , he appeared to be shuffling about completely disoriented, and it appeared that ON ONE, >>>NOT ONE<<< was willing to offer even the slightest of conversation, NOR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF PRESENCE .  He was left to LITERALLY "Stand Alone" .   My Mind could see only one thing, The >>>SHUN<<< .   

                         Some of  my Gentle Readers are sure to know The Shun, that the Shun is a Passive Aggression on Amish STEROIDS , and that the SHUN is the Amish form of Catholic >Excommunication< , a disbarment from Religious Practice, and the abject REFUSAL to acknowledge the presence of those who have Violated Status Quo Orthodoxy .  Those that have been SHUNNED, tell of the HURT they experienced, they speak of a savage Isolation that must be endured, and the HORROR of being >Expelled< from the >Collective< .  

                          It was (get this)  "Shun" Day for trump .

NWO

                                                           Folks may remember the 1987 Flick, MAD MAX :  BEYOND THUNDERDOME .   Recall the "Master Blaster" a two entity MONSTER of whom the Master "RUNS" "Barter-town" and his Enforcer, Blaster, a GIANT .  Here we have a Biblical Story reworked to suit Futuristic Times .   The Blaster is Goliath and Max is a David who has a whistle that symbolizes David's sling and rock .  Remember that Barter-town FELL, and there was an Exodus type of Migration that had intentions of creating a NEW "Town" of Fairness and Equity, the complete OPPOSITE of Barter-town .

                      I suggest that trump is the Blaster, as trump with HIS mil seek to defend the Status Quo, while Max, now the WORLD seeks his Defeat .  Max LITERLLY becomes  WHISTLE BLOWER, {I mean TOOOO fucking GOOD} and that Whistle Blower, CHANGES the Status Quo for that most singular For-Ever .    

                     The "Whistle" has been blown, trump's GIGANTIA* has been BLOWN-UP and a NEW World Order MAY be the Result .   I insist, IT MUST BE A NEW WORLD ORDER and that NWO MUST be designed by US the REAL WORKERS of the Planet .  

                     I am leaving this here for now ...  "Tare Forward" .

Latent Rationality and Her Twin, Chaos

                                                           I refer my Gentle Readers to the term "latent rationality".  I LOVE this Concept, it (somehow) guarantees a Condition of Laws and Orders upon which the Universe is Structured .   One of these Laws is full of Fraught , it is ,  Nature's Essence is ALWAYS toward Mass Entropy, where Entropy is Chaos .   In a Universe of LAWS you'd wanna think that Entropy has NO >Place<  RWONG !!!   Here it is where "Life" seeks Life WHEREVER "IT" is available .   Mother Nature will FUCK any and EVERYTHING if She can, and does so with DIVINE Indiscrimination .   Does Mother Nature VIOLATE her own Laws of Nature, the Universe's Physics ?   Hardly, it just APPEARS that way .  Recall the Indian Monk Nagarjuna and his "We can know a thing by its opposite" . 

                         Clearly, when Laws are bro ken Chaos results .   We are living trump's >Breakage< and certainly CHAOS has resulted .   We can hear Mother Nature, "Behold my son trump, with whom I am well pleased" .   I insist, and MUST Insist, that the Voice of Kali, the Destructress, has been heard and her Actions experienced .   "IT" seems that the Odds against us are Insurmountable, 2 words :   they are NOT .

Fury-Us

                                                           We can tag Events with "Hubris" and Nemesis" and observe the "Workings" of the gods and even appreciate the Concept of Synchronicity but what do we >>>DO<<< with all of that ????   What is the MEANING of "Meaningful Coincidence" .   I argue that there is a "Message" within those >constructs<,,, that the Universe is Calling us TO SEE SOMETHING OF GREAT IMPORTANCE .   In this Case, it is the True Nature of trump's MIND --- To SEE the trump's Open Cesspool as his MIND ,  a bit better to frame algae as SHIT, which we can then qualify as "trump's Mind is full of SHIT " .  But we AREADY knew that --- the Open Cesspool is a GIGANTIC Indicator FOR ALL TO SEE , not just an isolated few that has had contact with Dr. Jung .  The Open Cesspool is a "FUCK-UP" to which we can extrapolate =  trump is a FUCK-UP .   Alas, we knew THAT as well... so what ???

                          Safe to say that Understanding begets Peace of Mind --- we don't know and then we DO know .   Receiving answers to questions provides a form of Satisfaction, albeit momentarily,,, we still must devise a Strategy and Execute it, if Order is to Prevail, Peace resulting .   

                          Many have asked repeatedly, "WHY does trump do what he does?" in concert with "WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH HIM ?"   We can Know the answers but THAT still doesn't end him or his Reign of Terror .   

                           I must argue that Peace of Mind    May or MAY NOT   lead to "Contentment" .   Peace of Mind provides a Calm within which to 'operate' .   Indeed, in the execution of even the smallest tasks, the first 'thing' required is "Peace of Mind" .   Anger blinds, Fury injures .

Synchronicity

                                                            Is it a "coincidence" that the Reflecting Cesspool has "arrived" at this Time ?   The Great Dr. Carl Jung would insist, "No {fucking} Way" and he would refer us to his concept of "MEANINGFUL COINCIDENCE" which he tagged with "Synchronicity" .   Dr. Jung quotes Richard Wilhelm :

                                        "Reality, (...) is CONCEPTUALLY knowable because, according to the Chinese view, there is in all things a latent RATIONALITY .   This is the basic idea underlying  > meaningful coincidence <  :   it is possible because both sides have the same meaning .   Where meaning prevails, order results."

                       Then there's this supplement :

                                           "For the Unconscious Psyche space and time seem to be relative; that is to say, knowledge finds itself in a space-time Continuum in which space is no longer space , nor time time .   If, therefore, the Unconscious should develop or maintain a potential in the direction of Consciousness, it is possible for parallel events to be perceived or 'known' " .

                        Let this "sink in" for a moment or two ... .

trump's Open Cesspool

                                                           SEVENTEEN MILLION DOLLARS later Lincoln's Reflecting Pool is WORSE NOW MORE THAN EVER !!!   Ya gotta LOVE IT !!!!!!   Trump should have read my blog --->  "IF IT AIN'T BROKE, DON'T FIX IT" .   I mean "IT'S"   qrazee* shit and I DO mean QRAZEE !!!.    This "IT" does not stand alone, for we can add "Hubris" and "Nemesis" to trump's present-day Mental Condition .   Remember the phrase he delivered from "On High" ?  =   "I Alone Can Fix It" ?  Well done trump, SPLENDID !!!   There was another Observation also > delivered by the now famous (others would say Infamous)  "Some Guy",,,  who noted, "Everything trump touches turns to shit" .   

                            I want to believe that trump angered the Olympic Gods AND the Resident Gods that guard the Sanctity of the Lincoln Memorial .   Clearly, trump does NOT know the Word or concept of >>>Sacred<<< .   He's proven >that< over and over, again and again, time after time  ... .   

                            Can we now apply trump's SUPERIOR Ability to "fuck things uP" to Iran ????   How can we NOT ??????????    The Peoples of Iran were in an ACTIVE Revolt, they DID want to FIX `something` that was CLEARLY BROKEN , and trump argues that he Initiated the War to AID and ASSIST those very Peoples .   He was Lying, ain't nothin' new there but Now Iran is WORSE NOW MORE THAN EVER --- and by "Worse" I mean STRONGER and SMARTER .   Thanks donny boy, ya done good .

"Born to Lose"

                                                          Trump ain't just the "FACE" of america ---HE IS america .   Everything "about" trump IS Every Thing About America .   Trump LITERALLY 'embodies' all that is Humanly Disgusting --- a body ravaged by Age, and Human Mental Illnesses that appear as too numerous to cite .   KNOW that trump and ALL HIS NEGATIVE CHARACTERISTICS are to be found in EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US .   All that PRIMAL SHIT that Humankind had to abandon in order to Evolve along a Positive Trajectory , has resurfaced in its most grotesque, hideous and heinous forms --- and trump manifests these "uglies" with nothing less than the CRUELEST Savagery .   

                         Also  TRUMP IS Democracy, Democracy birthed him, educated him, and unleashed him onto a Society and Culture that {LARGELY} IGNORED his Faults, Flaws and Negative Characteristics BECAUSE HE WAS  RICH .   THAT is what Democracy DOES .   Democracy, just like ANY Human Being,, CAN BE MANIPULATED and trump did so with "celebrity" IMMUNITY .    

                      Make NO MISTAKE --- trump's HUMAN FLAWS are those of DEMOCRACY .   Don't miss the FACT that Democracy --->   HAS AS ITS FOUNDATION   >>>SLAVERY<<< .

                       Ain't nothin' >clean< about american democracy in the exact same way, ain't nothin' clean about trump .   Corruption as Filth and Squalor THRIVES in america because it is pat of the "Human Condition" and has been since america's Inception .  

                       Here it is where america is Born  FLAWED {{{as was trump}}} .

Make america GRATE again

                                                           There's a term bandied-about : it is "American Exceptionalism" .   Americans are suppose to be "Exceptional" but the only -exceptional- to be used is with >>>Loser<<< as in Exceptional LOSER .   Korea, Viet Nam, Liberia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Egypt, and now Iran ---countries where american influence has been fucking DISASTROUS .    America was NEVER >Great< where Great is code for Virtuous and Noble .   If america DID approach Greatness, it was during WW II .   Also, and most bitterly, after Germany and Japan's Surrender, when was heard, "WW II is the War that ended ALL WARS" and the United Nations was created out of "Gas Ovens" .    Virtuous and Noble for sure, I mean THE IDEAS OF GLOBAL PEACE AND HARMONY THROUGH DELIBERATION, DISCUSSION AND PRACTICE were "State of the Art" and foundationed upon ANCIENT Ideals .  HOWEVER,,,  my Gentle Readers will recall --->  "Good Intentions" .   

                           I pose this ;  It the U.N. is so fucking great, WHERE THE FUCK IS IT ?  And here's another ;   If the U.N. is so fucking great, why the need for N.A.T.O. ????

Iran-i-Nam

                                                           Presently, Iran maintains that the Strait of Hormuz IS "Open" but open only to traffic IT sanctions .   Ships HAVE passed through and I wonder why the American Blockade  did not stop these ships .

                               Trump wanted the Strait to be opened on his birthday  and an Agreement signed as well, Iran must have laffed* .   

                                Iran has demanded BILLIONS from trump, otherwise NO DEAL .   The word is "reparations" but for most of Knowing Onlookers, Iran is demanding SURRENDER .   

                                 Back in the days of "Early On" I reminded my Gentle Readers of Vietnam {Viet Nam}---how america tried to bomb the fuck out of rice-paddy peasants, and scorch the Earth with "Agent Orange" .    "We seen that movie, it don't end nice."   Not only have we "seen" that movie, we are now experiencing "Deja vu" "all over again" as Zen Master Yogi Berra would hazard .   Communism DEFEATED democracy ---- THAT'S "The >Bottom Line< " ,  and now we're lookin' at the EXACT SAME THING {{{only DIFFERENT}}} with a supposed Inferior Nation WINNING a War that was INFLICTED UPON IT .   

                                 "The more things change ...  the more they stay the same."

Miss Judge

                                                           For >>>>>>ME<<<<<< trump's Cage Hand-to-Hand Combat IS A MANIFESTATION OF HIS OWN `RULE` , where his "Rule" >>>>>>IS<<<<<<< "The Law of the Jungle" and its Prime "Kill or be killed", which got Civilized to the extent of "Every man for himself", with trump as the "Apex Predator" .   Trump's Event is a COLLISION of Cave Man and Modern Human, and  he is grotesquely stating exactly WHICH ONE HE IS .   This >Event< is trump stating "THIS IS ME" .

                          I find myself WISHING for a SWARM OF LOCUSTS and a VIOLENT THUNDER STORM to "invade" the White House Campus, specifically the site of the Event .   

                          I am NOT a "good person" .

Miss Demeanor

                                                           There's NOTHING >Cave-Manish< about the Ancient Greeks valuing Boxing as a Discipline , but Hand-to-Hand Combat DOES have origin in Pre-History .  We can assume that there were roving bands of cave-dwellers that sought food and other "stuffs" and were inclined to "gather" these stuffs from cave-dwelling Others who sought to Protect what they had "worked" to accumulate .   Here it is where violence ensued, and "to the victor went the spoils".  It's Ugly, always is, always will be ,   but    eventually Civilization made its way to the Human Psyche bringing LANGUAGE with it and Language was then used as a Weapon AND a "Defense Mechanism" .   Humans Evolved .

                            I must argue that Boxing is a Discipline of WAR   AND    that "Self-Protection" is INSTINCTUAL {{{as it MUST BE}}} .   Now did Civilization and all its "Refinements" remove  HTH Combat from its Collective Psyche ?   I don't know how it could, and By Definition, because Self-Protection is INSTINCTUAL,  there was NO WAY to rid itself of this Instinct .  

                            Enter Rome and the Roman Empire .   Enter the Word >>>SPECTACLE<<< .    As CIVILIZED HUMAN BEINGS we know all about the 'Colosseum' .   Here it is where every Roman Citizen could experience the SENSATION of Life, could witness the SAVAGERY of "The Law of the Jungle", could FEEL the LIFE AND DEATH STRUGGLE of Man versus Beast and MAN VERSUS MAN, WITHOUT ANY THREAT OF PERSONAL CONTACT NOR INJURY .  "IT" was PURE EXHILERATION ---  a SUPER-HIGH that was clearly addictive  ---- just look at how long "IT" has lasted .

                            

Culture SHOCK

                                                           Whatever I write is-gonna 'sound' as if I am defending MMA and Boxing and all other Forms of Hand-to-Hand Combat, I'm not and I am at the exact same time .   In ALL the Martial Art Disciplines there is the REQUIREMENT to learn HOW to Fight, the Practice of the Forms (Kata in Japanese) is NOT enough to Advance in the Study, to gain --->Rank <--- and Rank here means Understanding,  {{{where  'Understanding'  leads to Wisdom}}} .   Why ???

                             There's "Theory" and then there's "Practice" .   What the Student has learned as Techniques MUST be "APPLIED" in Practice, which is the TEST of one's newly acquired Skills .   There MUST-BE these Tests, to see if the Techniques have been properly learned and retained, and therefore become INSTANTLY AVAILABLE should a Confrontation   arise .   I digress, please forgive an old man .

                          Where was I ?????

                           Most Folks don't have the "stomach" to watch either MMA fights nor Boxing matches---they can't bear watching men hit one another with concussive force, or strangle one another to the point of near asphyxiation --- to those without 'stomach' combat appears as VIOLENT, CRASS, BASE and  LOW, and of course SICKENINGLY SAVAGE .   THAT'S where trump "comes in" ---> SICKENINGLY SAVAGE .   I mean, I COULD use BARBARIC but that AIN'T enough, it's too `cultured` and trump "ain't got him no `Culture` " . 

                             

"Yeah he's tough---tough to take"

                                                           Anywhere from 1.7% to 25% of Americans know what the UFC is and watch its matches .    Trump is one of them as am I .    Keep in Mind that trump's desire to have MMA as part of his birthday IS a manifestation of his Psyche, as it is for ALL our Psyches .   Remember, he is us,,, we are him, it sucks, but it's unavoidable, and there is no escape .   

                            MMA is suppose to be Mixed Martial ---> Arts , but it is hardly an "Art" "Form" .   It's far more accurate to describe the hand-to-hand combat as Martial SPORT---although many consider Boxing as "The Sweet SCIENCE"---now THERE'S a 'tough one' .    Recall that Boxing was among the first Olympic `Events`, ---  it's been around as long as farming .   

                            Trump has been accused of desiring this MMA event because it reflects his Personality, to a degree, and Psychologically that is True .   It's simply BIZARRE that someone like trump BELIEVES that hand-to-hand combat is within his "Skill Set" --  that "IT" depicts his >toughness<  when we KNOW trump is as tough as a "wet paper bag" .   He's never fought, never been in a skirmish, never been in the Ring nor NEAR a Martial Arts Temple ----  he don't know SHIT about hand-to-hand combat except what he watches .   THAT only qualifies him as NORMAL .   

                           Is there a 'something else' that's "goin' on" ?   2 words :   maybe.

Courage

                                                           I have to execute several details this morning, so I am not going to continue save for providing a the title of a book  that will introduce my Gentle Readers to Islam :  it is Mohammedanism by H. A. R. Gibb .   It contains the relevant ESSENCES of Islam and it is written with BEAUTY .   

                             Elsewhere I have argued that it is FEAR that breeds Hatred .  Fear will always exist because Fear is an Instinct.  Like Fear, WAR will ALWAYS exist .   This is "The Human Condition" .    

                              Fear is combatted by Familiarity ,  I don't like it, but there it is .   We FEAR Something until we don't...  also  "The Human Condition" .   Obviously,  if we Confront Fear we also Confront Hatred .   "IT" takes Courage, and we KNOW how difficult it is to summon Courage ,  but Summon we must, if We are to advance toward Peace and weirdly Justice .   

Moham Mad

                                                           I see NO DIFFERENCE between "All Jews must be annihilated" and "All Israelis must be annihilated."  I mean IS there a difference between Nazi Forces and those of the IRGC ???   History  has recorded that "There can be no peace until Israel, as a Nation, is OBLITERATED" .   THAT'S what netanyahu and his have confronted .  They face the THREAT OF EXTINCTION --- so when Epstein 'surfaced' and trump's nuts were in a vise, netanyahu Responded .   

                              Know that THAT doesn't really offer ANY Solace but it helps the Mind to Understand, at the very Least, the Conditions that caused trump to Attack .    Does that 'belief' offer ANYTHING that can aid in Ending the WAR ????   It may but I am not smart enough to figure-out THAT ONE .    

                              Thing is, can we "get to" the "Beginning"  BEFORE Religious ZEALOTRY manifested as PURE HATRED ???    Scholars from the "3 Worlds", {Past, Present and Future} are Certain to Agree that "Yes, we can" and by so doing point to Mohammed and his "Enlightenment" transmitted by the Angel Gabriel .   Mohammed's "Enlightenment" was DEVOID of HATRED .   Mohammed wished to Present Islam to the Pagans who populated the Lands and CONVERT them to GABRIEL'S Teachings, those found in the Quran .   The Teachings were literally >>>>HEAVEN SENT<<<< {Sent by Heaven} which could not IN ANY WAY , contain even a mote of Hate .   I mean, shit, if THAT'S 'true' then WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED ??????????

                                                           Remember there is ALMOST    NO Difference between trump and netanyahu, meaning, BOTH are "headed to prison" for Crimes Against Humanity, and for BOTH once Elections arrive they are CERTAIN to "Fall" .   BOTH >>>NEED<<< the War to CONTINUE if they are to remain as Free .    Netanyahu also faced a "Two Front War", one Front Iran the other Lebanon , no way Israel could fight Both -- so it was NETANYAHU who deployed AMERICAN FORCES to Iran while his IDF campaigned, with WAR CRIME ATROCITY, in Lebanon .   

                            That's my "Take" as Fareed Zacharia" would say .   "But wait........there's more... .'

"... a trump in hand..."

                                                           "IT" is as if the Epstein Files IS some sort of Cosmic Entity that has trump's balls in a Vise and that Vise was closing in on "Crushing" .    Since total 'transparency' was NOT anywhere NEAR an 'option', trump had to deflect attention away from himself, and thus we had those "drug boat" strikes in the Caribbean AND the KIDNAPPING of what's-his-name maduro .   OBVIOUSLY, >>>THAT<<< wasn't  Enough ...  trump needed something fucking BIG, "Hello Iran, Nice to see you" .

                               I contend that trump is capable of ANYTHING, including STARTING A WAR TO DEFLECT ATTENTION AWAY FROM HIM, {hopefully} FOREVER .   

                               Trump was 'ripe' "for the picking" and netanyahu was "BB on the spot" .   He got in the Oval Office and "laid out" his Plan which convinced trump while his staff went "AGHAST" .    Trump may never have considered War with Iran as VIABLE , but netanyahu's Plan suited his needs perfectly .  "Two birds, one stone" .   

                                 

Miss Spent

                                                          Yesterday I read a post on the made "Sense" .   A very enthusiastic American claimed that it was ISRAEL that 'downed' a U.S. helicopter, or "heelo" as Navy Seals have tagged it .   I sat back and thought, wow ... .    Trump and his NEVER supplied the Reasoning for attacking Iran, and that Reasoning remains a mystery, but that post {I gotta tell ya} it allowed for an Understanding that is, even at its most base, alluring, if not flat-out Seductive .   

                          It  ain't  "TRUMP'S WAR" at all----> it's NETANYAHU'S .   

                          There have been reports that netanyahu convinced trump to launch a half-scale Attack on Iran, "half-scale" because no Ground Troops were deployed .   Netanyahu saw an opportunity to "bomb the fuck out of Iran" with the goal to eliminate Iranian Threat, i.e., their Missile Capability, specifically .   But yesterday I was gripped by the feeling tat there HAD-TA-BE  something more, something ELSE and when the Epstein Files Debacle surfaced in American Broadcasting yet again, the Cosmic >"IT"< 'arrived'.   

                          I am a fan of "Conspiracy Theories" mainly because so much IMAGINATION is utilized, and I'm an "Imagination" kinda* guy .   I'm figurin' that netanyahu pressured trump into attacking Iran because netanyahu threatened trump with releasing all the SHIT the Israeli Intelligence "had" 'about trump and epstein .    

                          Hold onto that for a sec... .

Good Will Hunter

                                                           I'm a 'word guy' and therefore a 'BOOK Guy'  but I KNOW reading books is not as "IT" once was ---  We, as in our Society, has now leaned toward a return to {believe it or not} the "ORAL TRADITION", meaning many of Us would rather LISTEN to readers than actually BEING a >Reader< --- "so it goes' .   I am reluctant to use my personal Library to influence my Gentle Readers ---it may be too self-indulgent .   I CAN "resort to" films, however, since they represent the "sugar" in "A spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down" .   We can observe HOW and WHY individuals are the way they are in Hollywood Glamor that reeks of 'blue collar'  'empiricism' by viewing perhaps the Greatest Film of its Time, "Good Will Hunting"--- an Academy Award Winner of "Best Original Screenplay" by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon .   It's like the Bible, it has EVERYTHING inside .

                          Here we have Matt as "Will" ,  Ben as "Chuckie" and Minnie [Driver] as "Skylar' .   Matt is the one with the "Gift", Ben is strictly "Blue Collar" and Minnie is a "trust fund" rich-kid .    It's a small range of characters but they are all we need to inspect the Conditions of their Past as they relate to their Future .    

                          I urge my Gentle Readers to view "Stigmata" as well .   My FAVORITE Actress, Ms. Patricia Arquette, portrays a POSSESSED Hairdresser, whose line, "I LOVE being who I am" DEFINES a level of Existence most common and UN-COMMON in the Realm of Ordinary Work-a-Day .   As a kwik* aside, Gabriel Byrne is MAGNIFICENT as Father Andrew Kiernan .

                        I need Examples with whom my Readers can relate .   The above will do nicely .

"All things from Karma"

                                                           I was not one who was attracted to "The American Dream", which included, wife, kids, house and a job that paid for "a good living" .   I mean, it was 'out there' but not for me .   The American Dream was a manifestation of "The Declaration of Independence" which seems like a s--t--r--e--t--c--h , {it is} .    My Guy Ben Franklin used it as did "Mark Twain" .   The American Dream appeared to some of us as nothing more than the Status Quo, a Status Quo that registered as "The Natural Order" of Society and Civilization .   Like the V---A---S---T majority of some of us, I didn't know what I wanted, but a wife and kids was NOT among my Future Desires .    BUT    WHERE did that leave me ?  What ELSE was "Out there" ???   Good Question .

                            I may or may not be "different", but there was something INSIDE me that did NOT "like" the Status Quo , and I can only attribute    this   to Karma .    In Buddhist Dogma  this :   "All things from Karma" .    I was born with >somethings< and these somethings influenced my Life, THAT'S what 'somethings' DO .   It is being aware of these Somethings that will aid in the attainment of "One's Own" .

What's inside and What "out there"

                                                           We must establish a few 'things' before we get "underway" .    To have "One's Own" isn't just about receiving a "Gift" from the Realm of the Super-Natural, although that DOES figure prominently in the Over-All Plan {Process} .   Elsewhere I have championed Dr. William Jame's Cosmic Assertion that "Life is what you MAKE it" .   We can extrapolate that 'Life' is [therefore] constructed :  we say that we build a Life , and we must build Life from what already exists within our "Realm" ;   in the 70's >that< was 'heard' as "Ya-gotta go with what ya got" .   When we graduated High School we have a diploma, but not much else .   SOME of us DID enter the "Job Market" early on, and that is most definitely commendable, but some of us 'did' sports, which, precluded outside activities especially Work .   I didn't want to work, I wanted to play ----------and I did .   My goal at that Time was to get into a college, somehow,,, NOT to suit MY "Ambition" {I had none} but to satisfy my Parents .   2 words :  weird .

                               We must correctly identify those 'things' with which to build a Life , these >things< include an Existential Understanding of What Life IS .   What is the Nature of Life (?) is intimately connected to What is the Nature of BEING .   I hazard that most High School Grads don't have a fucking CLUE about the True Nature of Existence, shit, did ANYBODY our age "have a clue" ?   Doubtful, but there were Those that knew EXACTLY what they wanted to do {become}, and got on a Path whose goal was that "End" .  I'm thinking of Teachers, and the so-called High School "Future Teachers of America" .   Many of us Others did NOT, as I mentioned above, and Life was a {fucking} Mystery .   Question is , How do we find [locate] those 'things' and then, How do we use them ?   

"No Beginning --- No End"

                                                          I'm not going to write extensively this morning --- I have a cement/concrete project to execute and I'm brimming with enthusiasm to begin .   

                             I give my Gentle Readers a "Heads uP" that in the upcoming days I plan to explore the Nature and VALUE of "Having One's Own" , and also the Commitment REQUIRED .   Also, I intend to alter my own Writing so as to include the >>>WAY<<< in which I Think --- an Effort to provide example of "Critical Thinking" as it relates to >>>Problem Solving<<< , not just in GRANDIOSE EXTRAVAGANZAS , but in every-day situations, the littlest shit that most of us find either troubling or bothersome .  Note that even severe trivialities  are a form of Suffering, and that to find methods to alleviate the slightest Suffering can and SHOULD lead to the alleviation of BIG-TIME Suffering---which is the Goal of the Noble 8 Fold Noble Path .   

                           We're gonna start with this ;   "Looking into One's Self---{and the Attainment of Buddhahood"}  the third definition of Zen .   

"WHOA NELLIE " !!!

                                                          I had a rough plan to write about Nellie Korda, the Winner of the Women's U.S. Open Golf Tournament, so that I could feature a lyric from an old song, {Ancient, really} which is "God Bless the child that's got his own" .   Korda "comes from" a rather wealthy family of Champions, her father (Petr Korda) the most notable, who achieved MAJOR Success as a Tennis Pro as well as her Mom (Regina Rajchrtova) .   Apparently, Nellie had little interest in Tennis and chose Golf as her "OWN" .   THAT'S the Point rite there, to Have "One's Own" .    Question :  What is 'One's Own'  ?

                               Based on all of Dr. Carl Jung's Teachings, I am firmly convinced that EVERY ONE can and SHOULD "Have his/her Own" .   One's Own is best described as a "Gift"---we speak of those that have been "given" "Gifts", we assume from Heaven .   Nellie Korda has the "Gift" of "DOING" Golf at the highest level, indeed, she is presently # 1 in all the Rankings .   Are we to expect that each of US can be a # 1 ?    I suppose, but THAT isn't the Point of "One's Own" .   Some Folks are simply FABULOUS at what they "DO" ,  they make super-difficult actions appear as EFFORTLESS because they are so in tune with said activity, and that it 'appears' as "Second Nature" .   Their "expressions" ARE them, their Expressions >DEFINE< WHO they ARE, and of What they are made .   We can look at any TOP PRO to record affirmation .    

                              The "Job-of-Life" is to FIND "One's Own" .   It ain't EZ, nor should it be .

"The Heart of Rock and Get ROLLED "

                                                           Certainly the report of Ukrainian Success is >heartening< { GOD I love that word, heartening} .   I wish that we could receive a report of american success, a report that would indicate that america is actually doing SOMETHING to neutralize trump and in so doing CHANGE the so-called "Course of History" .  Sadly ---> NOPE .   

                            American B-R-O-A-D-casters and media in general, is preparing for the upcoming anniversary by labeling it with >>>CELEBRATION<<<  .   I mean, HOW THE FUCK CAN THAT BE ???

                             We are in the midst of WAR ,  trump and his have draaaaaaged us into a NO WIN CONDITION , a "condition" that has effected the entire WORLD .   Trump has DESTROYED AMERICAN DEMOCRACY, almost SINGLE-HANDEDLY, and is "On course" to PLUNDER american taxpayer wealth, and disperse it among HIS family members, and loyalists in a STAGGERING Display of UNRESTRICTED CORRUPTION .    

                          I mean SHIT ,,,, WE'RE GONNA >CELEBRATE<  >>>THAT<<< ???????

"I Want To Believe"

                                                           Reports that "Ukraine is WINNING " have surfaced evidenced by the drone strikes in St. Petersburg, putin's HOME-TOWN .   The Strikes occurred during putin's "Davos" a russian economic forum where several nations attended .   Further, Outside Monitors of putin's War have reported that Ukraine is killing russian soldiers faster than putin can recruit.  86,000 dead but only 80,000 recruited, so they say .   I Believe them because "I want to believe" .   

                         Somehow Ukrainians have developed a Drone Attack System that not only neutralized that of putin, but in many instances, exceeded expectations .    Ukraine has  manufacturing that builds these drones for around a "grand" , whereas russia spends at least THREE Times THAT .    Putin is losing soldiers, and going broke in the process .   2 words :  WOW .

                         I mean ya jus'-gotta shake your head in overwhelming APPRECIATION for Ukrainian TENACITY and Forbearance .    We must also FULLY Appreciate the EU and their commitment to Ukraine, to the tune of some ONE HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS in Aid and all its manifestations .   

                         ...And what about those MAGNIFICENT Albanians who FROZE  kushner's assets in PROTEST of his attempt to SEIZE Albanian Property and  make it his own ???   

                                                              Ya jus'-gotta LOVE IT !!

"For better AND for worse"

                                                           If you were to call me a "Drunk and Loser" I'd respond with only 2 words :  YUP,    thing is, I had to kill the Stephen that was a Drunk, and rite now, at this particular moment, I AM a Drunk and I am NOT a Drunk at the exact same time .   That's just the way it is .   My "Track Record" has been cleaned-up, meaning I got Sober with the Cosmic Aid of a Someone-Who-Saw-In-Me-Goodness , and the Massachusetts State Government who funded the "Spin-Dry" where I began Recovery .    I WAS GIVEN A SECOND CHANCE to become a functioning member of Society and a CONTRIBUTOR to the "Common Welfare" .   

                             I am OBLIGED to "Stand With" platner --- WE NEED HIS VOTES TO STOP TRUMP AND TRUMPISM  .   He may be hideously ugly, but his votes are Heavenly Beautiful .

                             Trump MUST BE STOPPED >>>>>>>>>>>>>PERIOD !

                              It MAY be that "nothing else matters and if that IS the case, so be it .

"BLINDSPOT"

                                                          Platner reminds me of that character "Kurt Weller" [portrayed by Sullivan Stapleton] in the TV Series "Blindspot", platner looks like "Weller" "for better and for worse" .   It's that same unshaven-face GRUFFNESS that reeks of Neandertal Savagery BUT Weller has the HEART and SPIRIT of a fucking WARRIOR who's "in it" to " PROTECT AMERICA FROM ALL THREATS BOTH DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN " .    His ALLEGIANCE to America is UNQUESTIONABLE and THAT'S why I favor Platner,     FOR THAT VERY  SAME REASON .   

                              I have embittered, with vitriolic vehemence, that the rats can be Trusted, to be pathetic FOOLS when it "comes to" "taking the high road" rather than "getting down and dirty" .   The rats have FAILED >>>PRODIGIOUSLY<<< at their efforts to "do the Right Thing" when that >thing< demands unconventional strategies and tactics,  as I just wrote, they do not like to "roll up their sleeves", nor "get blood on their hands" --- they revel in being "meek" and this reliance on "The meek shall inherit the world" REEKS of abject fucking COWARDICE .   

                            

Rat-Finks

                                                           You'd have to be {fucking} BLIND not to see the >Problem< .   Here we have rat-folks {democ-RATS} {{{ I must use "Rat FINK" because it is stronger than folks, and even though its original meaning is `snitch` or informer, it carries with it a matter of "Self-servitude", that is, a person becomes a snitch to save himself and that's what the rat-finks want to save =  the notion that they are SUPERIOR Morally}}} .

                        There's a guy who's PRESIDENT who HAS NO MORAL COMPASS NOR ETHICAL DEVICES >>>AT ALL<<< and now you're-gonna reject a man who has CONFESSED and who is SEEKING PROFESSIONAL HELP ????    It "ain't-like" Hilary rejected clinton and DEMANDED HE RESIGN for getting a blow-job from a "20 something" .   I HATE using "Stand By Your Man" , that now iconic song from the 70's that infuriated the Feminist Left, but Hilary did just that "for better and for worse" , and now WE must choose between trumpism and democracy DESPITE the HIDEOUS UGLINESS that platner,  AS A PRIVATE INDIVIDUAL , "has" as a POLITICAL Candidate .  

                        I mean,,,    WHAT THE FUCK ??? !!!!!

BOOZE KILLS

                                                           It would be a {fucking} MIRACLE if even one of my Gentle Readers remembers my blogs about Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky :   how she delivered unto him oral contact that resulted in an Impeachment .   I argued then that we didn't elect bill to be our "Moral Compass" and if he wanted to get sucked-off during a phone call to a Saudi King, well   "that's on him" .   I am of the Mind that 'conjugal fidelity' is best left to the married simply because of the INTIMACY that should register as "NONE OF YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS".   With regard to bill, I haven't changed .

                          Here it is where platner has been "less than a Gentleman", and a few mite* consider him a fucking BRUTE, yet ANOTHER KNUCKLE-DRAGGER whose addictions cause dis-quieting HARM to his partners and OBVIOUSLY his own Wife .   I had one of my girl-friends call me a "DRUNK AND A LOSER", simply because I wouldn't attend one of her family's -----------------------events .   In those days I would rather DRINK than do anything else.  Booze Kills and it KILLED that particular relationship .   So I KNOW what's it's like to have BOOZE Control my Mind and Body  = = =  Hideously GROTESQUE gets us to >>> There .

Collins Ciller

                                                           I apologize to my Readers in Lands that are foreign to the U.S .   Today I wish to examine the "Predicament" within which the Democratic Party finds itself ; specifically,  the Senate Race, that pits Platner against Collins .   The entire nation has been exposed to this Senate Race because collins is a lame-ass flunkie who's a "running dog" for trump, meaning, she has voted WITH/FOR trump IN DIRECT OPPOSITION to the Will of Mainers ;   Chris Hayes called her a "rubber stamp" for her >>>OBEDIENCE<<< to trumpism and loyalty to trump, himself ;  she's a fucking COWARD just like her others, a PREMIER example of POLITICAL SELFISHNESS , and a model for Ego-Maniacal POWER ;  PLUS she's older than fucking DIRT and has the Mind that approaches addle-ship* .

                                Platner has fucking ISSUES, but he has been B-R-O-A-D-C-A-S-T-I-N-G that he will "Take On" trump  and work to find ways and means to Neutralize trumpism and should Impeachment be presented as an option he is "ALL IN" .   The `rats` {{democ-RATS}} >>>NEED<<< this Seat to gain 'leverage' in the Senate , but because of Platner's Issues, the rats are becoming "Gun Shy" about firing him off as collins' "killer" .   

                                We're gonna look at this today .

One "For the road" ...

                                                           From the I Ching ---57.   Sun  /   The Gentle

                             "At times one has to deal with hidden enemies, intangible influences that slink into dark corners and from this hiding affect people by suggestion .  In instances like this, it is necessary to trace these things back to the most secret recesses, in order to determine the nature of the influences to be dealt with .  This is the task of the priests; removing the influences is the task of magicians .  The very anonymity of such plotting requires an especially vigorous and indefatigable effort, but this is well worth the while .  For when such elusive influences are brought into the light and branded, they lose their power over people . "

                          I argue that propaganda is not so "hidden", but that >it< has sub-conscious and subliminal aspects that produce dys-comfort*, recognized as a "Dark Cloud over the Land" .   We are told that the American Economy is "doing 'OK' ' but that Folks don't   feel   'OK' .   Such is the nature of propaganda and its "hidden" --->  activity .  

                         HOW "magicians" "remove" these "influences" is a topic for another morning, and WHO these "magicians" are  requires much more time than I have today .   Please forgive an old man .

"Big Brother" is talking...

                                                           "IT" "ain't even ABOUT" the so-called 'MURDER' of "60 Minutes", so much as "IT"  >IS< "ABOUT" the establishment of a new order of "State Propaganda" .   "IT" 's  been reported that the OBJECTIVE of David Ellison and his, is to coddle trump so that he will allow a GIANT FUCKING MERGER that, if successful,  would incapacitate News Outlets like CNN and MSNOW and ACT in the same way as FOX NEWS --- as nothing more than a Propaganda Delivery System, a System that is as close to "Brain Washing" as "IT" can get .   {{Fox news viewers aren't just ILL-INFORMED they are pathetically DE-FORMED . }}

                              Where IS Everybody ?   Has become the Question of the War .   Elias and SUPER-POWER-BRAINED Others have been OUTRAGED that Those-that-could-OPPOSE-trump have FAILED to do so and FAILED >>>Miserably<<< .   Others have pointed out that there should have been a STUPENDOUS UPROAR with the "Murder of 60 Minutes" and instead Hollywood has been STUPENDOULSY ACQUIESCENT .   I mean, THAT'S another Murder rite there !

                            America is 'hurting' but it ain't the capital H ---> Hurting .   Nope, it's the AA "This too shall pass" hurting that characterizes american Apathy .

                               

                              

Brutus .

                                                           I do not have the words to express WHAT I feel when I hear the news that trump has 'hired' a BB brained 'knuckle-dragger' to head the Department of National Intelligence .  One republican pea-brain spoke thusly , "I see NO EVIDENCE of 'Qualification' " and THAT was EGREGIOUSLY GENEROUS .    Pulte is a sycophantic THUG , a "foot soldier" whose only REAL Characteristic is to administer trump's Anti-Democracy Agenda with nothing less than BRUTE FORCE .   {{That funny--there's the "Air" Force and now there's a Brute Force}} .  {{{All I can see in pulte is the character "Brutus" in those Ancient Cartoons of Popeye and Olive Oil .  THIS  is the Problem I have with being "Relevant",   my references are Age Specific ... .}}}

                                 Marc Elias, a COSMIC SUPER-BRAIN and CHAMPION OF DEMOCRACY, a TRUE MAN, has repeatedly issued Clarion Calls of URGENCY .   Most recently he has warned us that, "IT'S GONNA GET WORSE,,, MUCH WORSE"  and that it's now time for STATES to "Once more enter the breech", "gird their loins" and PREPARE for trump's INVASION of the Electoral System, both propagandarily* and PHYSICALLY .   Marc and Others have envisioned a Scenario where trump and his will allow the elections to continue IF AND ONLY IF, He and his are ---> WINNING .   Trump wants the DNI to use its SPY "Network", NOT against Foreign Adversaries BUT AGAINST ITS OWN ELECTORATE, the very Electorate that PAYS FOR him and his .    Recall nixon's rabid and Autistic DESIRE to 'wire-tap' the phones of his opponents .   Trump's DESIRE is Much, MUCH  Worse .   Nixon was an AMERICAN , whereas trump is an american TERRORIST .   

The Woodstock Weary

                                                          My Generation OPPOSED the War in Vietnam, and did so AS AN ARMY FOR GOOD .   Colleges across the Nation were in "Lock Step", meaning there was a dogged COMMITMENT to >>>>PROTEST<<<< , not just one day out of the month but EVERY FUCKING DAY AND TWICE ON WEEK-ENDS !    The Gov. was kidnapping our Friends, Brothers, Sisters and Cousins, TRAINING THEM TO KILL, and then sending them off to die in the jungle and rice paddies .   

                             I see no such >Commitment< among the present college population--- I am confounded, and  BITTERLY so .   

                              I am ANGRY, BITTER, and EXASPERATED .   Folks are UN-WILLING to engage in the kinds of Activities that CONFRONT the Status Quo, those of Boycott, Sick-out, Sit-in, Street Protest that were COMMON PLACE , in the late 60's and all of the 70's .   It is HURTFUL that the majority of present day Street Protests are those of MY Age, 60-80 .   

                            Because those 'kids' are of >grand-children< Age I am convinced that MY GENERATION has produced this fucking CHRONIC APATHY --- that these 'kids' have been handed EVERYTHING and so NOW 'see' no reason to engage in said Protests, which I insist is a COLOSSAL FAILURE OF MY GENERATION .    

                            

"Same-Old-Same-Old"

                                                           The results are in for the elections held last Tuesday .   You'd figure and you'd WANT to figure that the electorate was SICK of the "Old School" to the extent that the would summarily REJECT >ANY< that conformed to the Status Quo .   I tell you I was fucking STUNNED that the "Same-Old-Same-Old" were re-elected, that NOPE there wasn't-gonna be a Change in the Leadership, that (apparently) Folks figured the "System" WASNT "Broke" enough to "Fix" .   2 days later I STILL haven't recovered .

                                 I am of the somewhat RABID Belief that the SHIT-HEADED congress should be flushed down the toilet ,  if you've been there for more than one term "YOU GOTS TO GO" !!!   Some of those Folks ARE OLDER THAN I ,  I KNOW MY OWN MENTAL DEFICIENCIES AND THEY AIN'T PRETTY !!!!   There's no reason to believe that congress folks are any different .  The Degeneracy caused by Age is a fucking Cosmic ABSOLUTE .   It's only pure ARROGANCE that withstands the Call of Nature ,  a Defiance that has HUBRIS within its Trajectory .

                                

36 > 47

                                                           In our 'celebration' of trump's defeat, we must include the Courts' DEMAND that trump's name be excised from the Kennedy Performing Arts Center .   I mean,,, TOOOOO GOOD .   Fuck him .

                             I need not remind my Gentle Readers and Fellow Country-Folks that we are "under" ENORMOUS PRESSURE , indeed we are SURROUNDED by "Hostile Forces" whose TREASONOUS Intent is the ANNIHILATION of Democracy IN ALL ITS FORMS.   We are out-gunned, under funded, and clearly under-manned .    It's weird to write that the Courts are like some form of  Navy SEALS but operates in the Light of Day .   If they can do THIS, what ELSE can they do ??    

                           It is also Impressive that before the Courts meted* out its Demand, they were notified by THIRTY SIX former Judges who question the original Legality trump's Law-suit .   When they smelled BULLSHIT they didn't just "hold their noses", they ACTED with the Strength and POWER of Truth and  Judicial Tradition .    I tell you, it was HEARTENING .  2 words ;   WE NEED MORE !!!!!

                                                          It is imperative we acknowledge trump's removal of his "claim" to 1.8 billion dollars, his "Anti-weaponization" "Fund" has been frozen, perhaps to death, by the American Courts, who are now considering charging trump with Fraud .   "IT" must be valued as a MAJOR Victory and even 'celebrated' as such, if only for a brief time .   Some Folks want to view "IT" as a sign [or signal] that trump's "HOLD" on HIS republican congress, is slipping , that his "Snatch & Grab" into the American Treasury was "Too much" ,  that he had somehow violated a "Sense of Presidential Dignity" ,  that he had shown his "True Colors" and that these "Colors" BILLBOARDED ---> Criminal Intent .   

                         Has trump "reached his 'LIMIT' " ?    Good question .   One word :   I doubt it .

                         

Wreckoning or Reckoning ??

                                                           I'm darkly saddened that in the past couple of weeks I have lost HUNDREDS of Readers .   Days where I got 7 or 8 HUNDRED "Views" is down to a mere trickle of just barely 60 .   I mean, that's me rite there .   I have been laboring over a decision to write about COSMIC Shit, or stay resigned to tie trump to the "whipping post" and beat him mercilessly every day .   The expression of Esotericism* carries with it, the OBVIOUS,  only a FEW Folks are even capable of understanding and perhaps HALF of them think "IT" would be worth it .   

                              I may as well write what >I< want , given the FACT that I have "nothing to lose" {{{and EVERYTHING to Gain}}} .

                              I insist ;  America must "look into the Mirror" and "get on the Scale" if Change will lead to TRANSFORMATION where "trans" means  REFORM .

                              We are living trump's WRECK-ONING and what we need is a RECKONING reckoning .   {{{Stupid rite ?   I'm GOOD at being STUPID !}}}

                                                            I thought that Major League Baseball was suspended during WWII, once again I was RWONG* .   Roosevelt was asked by the MLB Commissioner if he should suspend Activity because of the War.   Roosevelt responded that NO, the Nation needed to maintain a "morale" and that it also needed a >boost< in "Public Spirit" .   I don't know why I didn't know that probably because it would "make Sense" to interrupt Play and direct all Public Attention onto the War and ITS "Necessities" .  I figured that IF Pro Athletes were to BOYCOTT their Games, THAT would be enough to infuriate fans sufficiently to make them PROTEST THE WAR and in so doing bring about an END to IT and trump .   I mean, shit, these MILLIONAIRES aren't inclined even to "Take a knee" .    Why should THEY >Sacrifice<  ?   

                            NO ONE WANTS TO SACRIFICE .   One word ;  "Human Nature" .

Miss Hit

                                                           Nothing can 'happen' to putin because putin's oil keeps the EU 'alive' .   Now we can see that Nothing can 'happen' to Iran because they `own`  the Strait of  Hormuz .    What would  'happen'   if putin were to  "choke-off"  the EU by denying them his oil ?    How would the EU survive ?    Could putin withstand an EU boycott of his oil ?    Who would 'outlast' who ?   

                             Putin is 73, what if he "turns into" trump as he approaches his final years ?   For that  matter, what would happen if putin were to die, say from a heart attack, would russia "change" ?   We can't know if it (the change) would be for the better or for the worse .   What would happen if trump "checks out" ?   Would america change ?   Would trump's Gestapo and Propaganda ministers "throw down their arms"  and surrender ???     

                             The World hasn't stopped putin.   The World hasn't stopped trump .   It is "piss-poor" thinking that believes that the World, somehow, can "get its shit together",  and do fucking ANYTHING .

                              I find myself suffering from >Rabid Dejection<  ~~~ don't know it there's a cure .

Miss Fire

                                                           I was wrong .   I called for the World to open the Strait, but THAT'S nevuh-gonna happen ,   When russia invaded Ukraine I wanted to believe that putin could be stopped by NATO , all NATO had to do was send "Peace Keeping" Forces to Ukraine, which should have been chronic deterrent for putin , NATO didn't, and used the excuse that to deploy NATO Forces would be to escalate and enflame a DIRE SITUATION .   I wanted to believe that the WORLD had "learned its lesson" with putin's illegal "annexation" of Crimea, and would NOT tolerate another ILLEGAL "Disturbance" from a nation, ANY nation, that sought to expand its borders and in so doing enrich its population .   Einstein defines Stupidity thusly ;  to execute the same act over and over again, and expect DIFFERENT results each time .   I was STUPID .   I wanted to believe ...  there's a Sin in that somewhere ... .

                              

Strait Jacket

                                                           Pundits have agreed that trump has no way out of Iran, meaning, the bombing of Iran appears to have had the effect that was experienced in Vietnam .   Here, "Capitulation" is code for Surrender .   It is perhaps too Romantic to use the term "Simple Twist Of Fate" when describing the Iranian's New Surge of Power, the Command over the Strait of Hormuz .   Clearly, trump didn't learn from Vietnam, where we suffered Ignominious Defeat, and were forced to Retreat and leave that Country to its own devices .   Trump has delivered unto Iran a new Weapon, the potential to TAX those countries whose Existence depends on Oil passing through the Strait.   The Emperor may not be wearing any clothes but he IS wearing a (get this)  Strait Jacket , rendering him impotent and immobile .   2 words :   Wow .
