Civil Society – Following the Amenities

An impromptu post to spacebook last week, copied here. Not particularly deep, just food for thought… There was a saying years ago that if you were not important enough to miss a phone call then you were really not very important. I have thought of this every time the last twenty years that I have …

Truth is Whatever We Say It Is…

They forbade you to open your businesses. They told you what you could buy and sell, and where. They made it ‘illegal’ to go to Church. They arrested you for daring to protest the Governor. They denied your children graduations and proms. They told you NO wakes or funerals for your departed loved ones. They …

Ordo Ab Chao – Orchestrated

A lot of mourning recently took place in this country. It manifested in looting Liquor Stores, Targets, Pharmacies, and Cheesecake Factories. In a show of support, masses of people traveled far, assisting protesters in peacefully burning down Public Housing, Police Stations, Gas Stations, Restaurants, and countless cars. Well done. Someone else, naturally, will clean it …

Lowering the Speed Limit to Save Lives

It is known that the motor vehicle fatality rate in this country would be massively reduced by lowering the national speed limit to 35 MPH and eliminating all personal travel. Still, some people resist this, and that really burns me up. What about human life? What about the danger they pose to others by their …

Contact Tracers – The New Nazis

Lost your job? Consider becoming a “contact tracer” – CBS News History doesn’t repeat, but it often rhymes, said Mark Twain. Prepare for the New Nazis – the Grandest collection of Paid Busybodies the world will have ever known. First it was ‘Protecting the Homeland’ with the TSA, kapos* proudly selected and paid to assault …

KS-19 – Includes Everything but the Kitchen Sink

I make chili pretty often. I use beans in my recipe, and onions, garlic, garden tomatoes, peppers, et cetera. Sometimes I add other stuff like the half can of corn that’s in the fridge, or the last quarter cup of oat groats in the cupboard that I just want to get used up. Before you …

The Most Important Sentence

I have always loved language and languages. “He who does not know another language does not know his own,” said Goethe, and it is so true. Nothing else expands our minds the same way. The Sapir-Whorf hypothesis claims in fact that the language we use to speak (and think) actually affects the way we perceive …

Self-Sufficiency – Wet Shaving

About seven years ago I was in Sam’s Club looking at the high dollar disposable razors I used at the time. I finally said “No thanks,” and put them back. I determined that I was going to get back to the basics with shaving in the same way I had with food and many other …

Are the Grammy Awards racist too? Let’s take a look… On the list of artists for the most Grammy Awards …

Judge Demands Woman Apologize for Working

Judge sentences Texas Salon Owner to jail and fines her because she refused to apologize for reopening. True. This is kind of the definition of Authoritarianism, what in Transactional Analysis would be called the Parent-Child dynamic. This pathetic piss-ant judge wants this woman to “apologize for being selfish,” like she is a petulant child. Her …

De gustibus non est disputandum

Beauty… what is it really? I came across a YouTube where a young woman sent an unaltered picture of herself to Photoshop experts around the world with the instructions, “Make me beautiful.” The results were interesting. The video is 2 minutes. Naturally, people will have their own preferences, and we should be thankful for that. …

Soylent Green on the Way…

Unless things change soon, your children or grandchildren will be eating lab-grown “meat” and think it’s normal. An unholy abomination, but by then we’ll have human clones walking among us anyway. Unborn meat for unborn people. Neither having a soul. Both Tyson Foods and Bill Gates are heavily invested in this technology. Isn’t that comforting? …

Where are the Free-Thinkers?

I was heavily imbibed one night many years ago and received an email from a Republican friend forwarding disinformation about how messed up something was with some leading Democrat. What she described was indeed messed up, but simply forwarding the same misinformation yet again really set me off that night. “She’s smarter than this,” I …

The Right to be Armed

A friend of mine posted this recently on spacebook… “For those of you who ask… who wants to take away your guns? Who wants to take your constitutional rights away. Take a gander at this.” 15:45 – Legally Armed America This was my response… Many people have come to me over the years telling me …

Unfriended in the Name of Tolerance

Unfriended; chalk up one more for “tolerance”…. A friend screamed at me one night over the phone two or three years ago that she belonged to “the party that cares about people!” It has been no secret for a long time that I disdain both political parties as two wings of the same bird, and …

Criticizing Bankers – Return to Glass-Steagall

I criticize Bankers a lot, and have been concerned for some time about my criticism being misunderstood. My wrath is dedicated to those psychopaths in government and on Wall Street who long ago determined, by stealth and deception, to misappropriate for themselves everything the common man had ever honestly worked for. I have never harbored …

Monopoly – Stop Playing the Game

“The only way to stop playing a game is to stop.” — Eric Berne, The Games People Play I was the first of five children born in our family. As kids we would sometimes play Monopoly. Being the oldest I had an advantage in figuring out how to win. I was also the Banker. As …

Schumann Resonance

Did you know that the Earth has its own vibrational frequency? It does. It is 7.83 Hertz (Hz), and it’s called the Schumann Resonance. When your brain is at its ultimate state of relaxation, like the state you might experience with practiced meditation (not sleep), your brainwaves are operating in this same frequency. It is …

The Lord Giveth Increase, but Man Devised Credit

Ever more proof that man does not learn from history – and, in all his greed, pride and arrogance, in fact has little interest in it at all, at least in any real history… “The Lord giveth increase, but man devised credit.” “The general shape of the universal delusion may be indicated by three of …

Stop Playing the Game

I just saw a headline stating that Bernie Sanders’ real obstacle is not Trump, but the Democratic establishment. Indeed, but I would say that this whole country’s problem is not Trump, but the larger Establishment (the Dark Lords, the Puppet-Masters, the Man (or Men) behind the Curtain). Trump is just a symptom of an Oligarchy …

Wall Street Banks Continue Doing God’s Work

“We are doing God’s work,” said Lloyd Blankfein, CEO of Goldman Sachs in 2009. Let’s take a quick look at that. In contrast let us also establish the definition of usury, a concept abominable since Biblical times. usury – noun the illegal action or practice of lending money at unreasonably high rates of interest. interest …

A Personal Look at the Patriarchy

At seventeen I rebuilt my first V8 engine from the block up. I had a friend whose mother was dating a German who had been a mechanic on the Porsche international racing team. He asked if he could drive my car. I was pleased to have him do so and handed him the keys. Off …
