    Walk on the Beach.
    Dynamic masterpiece by slight diagonal position of the figures battling the light wind. In concert with the wavy garment, “power of the wind” was, rather, cleverly depicted by the water behind using the long strokes of the brash from dark to the lighter value of blue, where the latter is “hitting” the girl’s chest.
    Painter must be fully immersed and dead exhausted afterwards, by almost repeating mantra to himself: “they are walking on the slightly windy beach” ….on-and-on, during his work. Level of ability to maintain that state determines the quality of the painting among other talent requirements. Such an effort to make figures “alive” and “gestures” right.

    Yep!

    Human caused pollution is a real thing and a real problem.

    and:

    Too many people consuming too many resources in a wasteful way has brought down many civilizations.

    Is what I always thought is the problem.
    “Climate change”, regardless if real or not, is more likely, hoisted on us as a control tool.
    I may also add that overpopulation with so many people without some kind of “achievable goal” opportunity or, at lest, any job to sustain their existence leads to rampant crime.

    A-Carp from yesterday

    Again, sanity requires that we hold people responsible for what they do far more (if at all) than for what they “are,”

    Absolutely true. However, people also notice over-representation that, consequently, makes one group inadvertently “visible”.
    “Less harmful” wide-brush observations are as simple as who “we think are 7-11 or gas station owners or who is most likely to jump after the ball in the basketball court etc…
    Or more serious as how sick it is that Montenegrin minority (trying to put you on ease) holding national money-purse, controls our foreign policy, vetting who the members of Congress and even more so who is our president should be. Cynthia McKinney had a quite a few words about her experience of being forced to sign unquestioned allegiance to that country that she refused which did cost her political career.
    Case of buckling-down before that nasty little prick country:

    Great link by @susmarie108 today:

    Our civilization is sick because all its systems ensure that human behavior is driven by profit, and health isn’t profitable. Nobody gets rich from everyone staying healthy all the time. The gears of capitalism will still keep turning if its populace is made shallow and dull by bad education and crappy art made for profit.

    And more like this.
    Just needs to be willingly noticed and contemplated.

    Bosco from yesterday:

    Blacks weren’t much affected by white hippy freak-dancing. They kept on practicing cool dance moves

    Exactly how they were portrayed in the gig-story that I posted. Audience got it right away and responded. I remember that impression of “Asian” featuring some dance-karate kicks was bit of stretch, but all-in-all it was a god gig and we had a good time.
    A-Carpenter is missing the point of the “wide brush” approach to observation.
    BTW
    When one feels down vintage (preferably) boogie-dance videos are great cure.

    @A-Carpenter

    So far, I have not found, nor has anyone been able to identify for me, any one trait,…….

    And yet, in my sample story posted, clumsy and self-conscious dance moves were immediately recognized as “quintessential whitey” producing a burst of laughter even though we know that’s not at all across the “white board?
    You are blind man.

    Prejudice.
    Long time ago in Venice (CA) boardwalk two street comedians had a gig as “how the guys of different races court the girl in the nightclub”. We, the audience of easily one hundred+ laughed our brains out especially when they portrayed the whitey. For those who tell me that prejudice is “unfair” (which it is for many single cases) I point out as what was, then, funny in the gig?
    People observe and notice the general recognizable trait of some group.
    Disproportional representation of 2% in the halls of power, “law” and money purse holding, thus is dully noted. That’s all.

    Recent visit to Balkans and now in Peru is great case study observation of “living with less” and the way of life going on regardless of how some things does not necessarily function as we’re custom to in the USA.
    In my mind I occasionally play the game as “how low” will Americans accept the downgrade.

    We shall be in Oaxaca in August.

    Just for the gigs, say, for your final entry you hear, in the best manner of Columbo’s “one more thing”, request for “papel de vacuna”?
    What would “towering personality of yours” have done in that case?
    Of course you won’t answer.
    BTW, Unlike Anglo or German, Latin cultures are not always explicit but operate in such a way that it is assumed that some things are “self evident”.

    Again, nothing wrong and I appreciate the posts, but I may say, after the 5001 triumphant submittals I sense borderline pathology that you may need to check-on at your earliest convenience.

    Bidens doing business with Mykola Zlochevsky.
    They could not find more fitting partner. In many Slavic languages zlo (Russian зло) means evil.
    Zlocho (m) or zlocha (f) is a petty reference to a person with bad intentions.

    Re: Richard Gage.
    I am always for anybody or anything that pushes for truth, Beautiful AEfor911truth got slightly tarnished in my eyes when heard that Gage had some quarrel with the movement resulting in him “leaving the band for solo career”. Also, major financial backing that movement had (not sure if they are still active) was from the voluntary donations just to be slurped by $500/hr “best in the country” lawyers.
    Hope that something comes out of his effort. It’s been too long.

    Kunstler, brilliant as most of the time, itching for some revolution.
    Revolution in such divided society of “lone individuals focused of outrunning fellow countryman and becoming rich” is a pipe dream.
    Interesting, first long batch of comments was nothing but the “wet dreams” as what they would loved to do to perpetrators of our misery, followed by the various excuses as why not to participate in revolt. Crown takes an asshole who claims that it would not be fair to his kids to leave them without inheritance that he worked hard for all his life and that would be lost if he had been a “revolutionary”.
    Never forget builder of Levittown homes who once famously said that “if everybody bought his home there would not be any communists (read revolutionaries) in the USA”. Mortgage, car payments and generally still comfy life is great deterrence from the no-no behavior. I may add that there is also a general distrust that fellow neighbor would follow through.
    Two years ago I had a thought that our 2nd amendment is the last chance to save the world. Not sure any longer, given what I have written just now.

    Just like “Hitler’s rant in the bunker”, “missing chapter” of Art of war can be easily employed and can go forever.
    I used it in my early comments on zerohedge which did not win me many friends from the “gong-ho-America-first” patriotic audience at the time.

    Superb painting by an artist whom I did not know makes my day.

    I newer thought that Mel was crazy. His drunk Jew-rant incident was “quietly settled” and not elaborated further – as what it is that bothered him. It was obvious that it did not come as “sour grapes rumble” from a Hollywood waiter=wanna-be-actor but from the top earner, thus with the benefit of merit behind it.

    CONSENT FACTORY, INC. – C. J.Hopkins
    Excerpt from the article link that brings memories of dealing with Dr D and jb-hb and few others in the comment section:

    A lot of these folks don’t see it that way, because they do not want to face the fact that what they are resisting is global capitalism, so they call it other names like “crony capitalism,” “corporatism,” or “cultural Marxism.” I don’t really care what they call it, except when they call it “communism,” which just makes them sounds extremely silly.

    I could not have said it better, especially that last sentence.

    The New Normal Left

    One more think to add. Have “those two” ever notice that China in regular talk is simply China, however when the country is to put into really negative connotation it is always referred as communist China.
    All coming from a “would-be friendly associate” apparently overtook by the commies?

    John Rubino interview
    Financiers are the only ones that deliver grave news with ear to ear smile.

    Kosovo – 43 years old saga:
    Right after the Tito’s death in May of 1980, Kosovar Albanians “discovered” that they’ve been oppressed and decided to express that with numerous massive strikes and disobedience of all sorts. Break-up of Yugoslavia was their moment when they did armed provocations against the Serbs knowing that there will be a response and used that as an excuse to call “literal uncle” Sam for help. Serbian ally Russia, at the time of NATO overtake was weak and on life support itself to intervene other than short and symbolic hold of Pristina airport. The rest was, as saying goes, a history.

    I checked on wikipedia for a further explanation. That and Graeber’s “Bullshit jobs” keeps me baffled, given that system requires efficiency for maximum profit. I guess only the working bees, blue and white collar, are exempt from such a luxury.
    No wonder that movie “Office space” struck a cord with many who worked in such environment and being familiar with every minute scene featured, produces weird sense of Déjà vu.

    @jb-hb
    One of the reasons that I immigrated to the US was my young and stupid belief that system would simply not allow “incompetent person to be employed” and that I would be in the company of close to semi-gods as my coworkers. That and expecting that “fair market forces” are governing and determining merits and rewards for each individual – something that Dr D would still not stop blabbering about.
    True, I had an opportunity to work with some really great professionals, however midwit managers contributing to more than half a dozen two week notices made me go on my own as a freelancer that, miraculously, made the following managerial bunch timid and nice to cooperate with. Go figure.
