choose who you listen to

 






somehow all of us need to counteract the MAGA 
disinformation -- which, as more and more Republicans 
are seriously adversely affected by the Mumps regime, 
may become more possible





apparently we have been thrust into authoritarian anarchism 
in which the words of the Mumps are all of the law -- 
and they so enjoy their cruel entertainments




all this Democrat bashing is deplorable.  
No one is perfect.  Multiply that by all the 
Democrats and perfection is far from in the 
offing.  You do realize, the Dems are not just us,
 not just one little interest group.  There are Dems 
from every demographic.  You want better reps?  
Of course we all do -- but we don't all agree on 
what that means.  Do the work to find, promote, 
get out the vote for those closest to your values 
who show effectivity; go positive (we can!)




think about all the wars, mini-wars, civil wars, 
conquest wars; think of all the economic turmoil 
and tests to be passed to be allowed not to starve; 
think of all the angry mobs, all the disinformation 
manufactured rage against each other, the people 
on the streets without recourse who get beaten and 
burned on a lark -- it's all too much to oppose if we 
take them one by one; what we need is a new world 
order based not on violence, but on kindness for our 
mutual support and a world without wars or genocide
 (where such thoughts would be unthinkable)



No human grouping is a monolith.
We each have our idiosyncratic
stories, and their consequences.



Mumps destroys the US basically
by refusing to acknowledge any
other authority, any power over them.
How can we, in turn, learn to refuse
to acknowledge their authority?
How do we ignore their edicts, and
do what is necessary to rule and take
care of ourselves?



None of us can be everywhere at once.
For the most part, what we know about
the world we learn from others.
How do you choose who you listen to?



An important function of a well-run
society is to provide for their people's
basic needs.  People who cannot afford
to pay for these necessities still need them.
Thus, we must fully commit to organizing
means to provide for people's needs, no
matter their circumstances.



Let's talk about sex, free of euphemisms,
titillations, deadly mystery
Species insistence on continuance
led to extremity of desire
"pants on fire", urgency to cloud the
rational mind, thus populating art,
human misery, and rush to ecstasy that
becomes an enmeshing of lives,
and all that entails
All those travails, travels, craven dramas,
generational traumas, brutal loss,
ubiquitous wars.



What was -- and still is in my mindgames
