Well the assassinations have begun. Is it Fascism now mainstream media, or are we still pretending all this is normal?

Trump and Musk have collapsed into a singularity and are officially a supermassive black hole. There is no greater source of suck in our galaxy.

Democratic Diversity is strength. Blind loyalty is Chaos. Blind loyalty is an insidious compromise of your core beliefs.

We need to show them. There is strength and diversity. It is our core strength. You can be part of a group where your opinion matters. Your community matters your people who sent you to Washington matters and you can make a best decision for them and not a Despot protecting himself at all costs.

Democrats need to run hard on anti-chaos and Democrats independence from one another. This cuts thru all Conservative bullshit. "Don't agree with everything I say?" "Fine, we'll agree to disagree on that point and move on with a compromise for the business of state and governance."

This is the plan. It is unfolding in front of us.

This kind of says it all...so many of the folks I grew up with. If their Grandfathers from WWII could see them now.

Humans invented a means of instantaneous communication at a rate and depth inconceivable 150 years ago and it has driven us to ruinous ends in less than my lifetime.

#recall election re Keith oberman's idea if the Republicans can make up whatever bullshit they want to make up we can do it too. Let's recall the 2024 presidential election spread it far and wide

I first saw him in top secret on a sunny summer afternoon with almost no one else in the theater. I laughed till my sides hurt. Then came, Real Genius, The Doors, Tombstone, The Saint, Batman...So long Val. Another hero from my childhood gone. Rest in Peace. 😞

Not a lot of things to be proud of right now in this country, but Cory Booker's Filibuster against what's happening in our Country & breaking Strom Thurman's shameful record for longest filibuster ( against the Civil Rights Act) is definitely something to be proud of.

I always loved watercolors. Bill Sienkiewicz was one of my influences. Also loved Wyeth

I have come to the inevitable conclusion that the worst thing to happen to humanity was the internet followed by smart phones.they have made intellectual slaves of us.

Goodbye to the little sister I never had...Michelle T. (Dawn) Maaan this year sucks so far.

"Conscious faith is freedom. Emotional faith is slavery. Mechanical faith is foolishness." - G.I. Gurdjieff

"The State in particular is turned into a quasi-animate personality from whom everything is expected. In reality, it is only a camouflage for those individuals who know how to manipulate it" - Jung

Oddly enough I just watched the Criterion remaster of this last night. Still such a fantastic film.

We shall now know what it is like to be without allies. Alone. I advise anyone reading this to stock up on essentials and become VERY conservative with your spending. We shall soon explore the limits of financial despair we haven't seen in a hundred years.

Trump fired the head of aviation and flight safety, froze hiring for Air Traffic Controllers, Disbanded the Aviation Safety Advisory Committee, Sent out a buyout demand and removed experienced safety staff and somehow as if by magic we have the first American mid air collision in 16 years.

Watching It's a wonderful life again and struck by instead of Americans allying w George Bailey...too many today fancy themselves as Potter's... bigoted assumptions abound & cruelty. I wonder how many tube influencers would gleefully report George's death by suicide and proclaim him a sucker?

You give us hope. You give us a voice. You will win the day in the end.

We are in the wilderness. Time for reflection, hard truths and deep thinking. Do it while you work. As Gurdjieff said "You are in prison. If you wish to get out of prison, the first thing you must do is realize you are in prison. If you think you are free, you cannot escape."

The Ramones, Johnny Cash, David Bowie, Freddie Mercury, Pete Shelley...I really hate out living the authors of the hopeful soundtrack of my youth. I'm not much for Wagner and Horst Wessel I guess.

How about a Tex Avery Wolf style stache and a Zoot suit to match.

Today's episode of movies people completely shat on I thought were ok...National Lampoon's Vacation 2015...really pretty good. Did not deserve all the hate it got at all.

I don't know who needs to hear this...but if your liquid soap in your dispenser has such an insanely overpowering scent that repeated hand washings with other soaps and dousing in alcohol 2x can't remove it...just what in the hell do you think normal people do with their hands?
