    What happened to us we will do to another,
    Instilling resentment again.
    The cycle continues and fights will go on
    Until the destruction of men.

    The ones we have sinned against gnaw at our hearts-
    But isn’t this how it has always been?
    Their very existence recriminates us-
    So then we sinners compound the sin.

    Cronus ate his kids but Rhea saved Zeus by spiriting him off to be reared by Amalthea, and feeding her husband a stone wrapped in baby clothes, instead. Zeus later made Cronus vomit up his siblings (Poseidon, Hades, Hera, Demeter…). Gods are different from you and me.
    This artistic tearing apart of the offspring doesn’t work.

    The new baby boy was as cute as could be-
    Looked just like his father, we said.
    But his dad became sad and said all he could see
    “Is just my replacement, instead.”

    Is this what’s going on in this war-hungry world? Old men trying to devour their sons because of envy? Even a bit of jealousy?

    Division! Division!- that’s what has been wrought
    For those once united on issues before.
    The mideast divides us and now we are caught
    In the web of the spider as we head to war.

    Apparently the bad guys got too scared.
    Iatrogenic damage? So who cared?

    One for today, going directly to freezing this week without even one frost:

    The garden was pretty. It kept us well fed,
    But winter is nigh and it must go to bed.

    [and a vanity repost from 0ct 2, when it was 88F]:

    The door is open. Leaves waft in and gather near my feet.
    The fall is here; so ends another summer that was sweet
    With ripened fruits now tucked away,
    To bring the summer back some winter’s day.

    Gardening makes me see the world as peaceful and bountiful.

    Correction:
    Bullshit blustering and stomping about
    Acting insane to gain some odd advantage:
    “Don’t press our buttons or we’ll press them, too
    And you’ll hold the bag on the havoc and damage.”

    The sad thing is finding the wackos abide
    Not on the enemy’s, but on our side.

    in reply to: Debt Rattle October 27 2023 #145401

    Okay- let me spell that correctly:
    Happy Vasili Arkhipov Day!

    Who’s cuter in the fox video- the fox or the fisherman?

    I know so many people who feel the way my wry poem expresses. I think “The Great Taking” will wake them up more than the reinstatement of the draft.
    After all, they thought it was sweet that their kids injected their grandkids…show you love Gramma, and all that.

    in reply to: Debt Rattle October 24 2023 #145228

    My lifestyle is sweet and I want to protect it.
    As long as my leaders comply
    To do what it takes- I’m not going to reject it-
    Though somebody else has to die.

    My paycheck is juicy; I’ve got lots of friends
    (Though they seem a bit sickly of late).
    As long as it’s somebody else it upends,
    I don’t mind the uptick in hate.

    So leave me alone and I won’t interfere-
    I’m sure that they know what they’re doing.
    Let others take care of the things that I fear.
    Who cares if a world war is brewing?

    “Edwardteach” over at Denninger’s comments offers this extraordinary video from a South African actuary.
    You’ve heard it all before, but it’s well-presented and very “pass-on-able”.

    tboc- nostalgia…those are the shows my brother insisted we watch. I liked Felix the Cat and Yogi Bear. And I liked Rocky cartoons, but it was Boris and Natasha I wanted to see- not pip-squeak Rocky and thick-headed Bullwinkle. Did you get Axel? Not PC.
    But yeah. It was all propaganda. It’s TV.
    58 years later, I am realizing what an influence “My Weekly Reader” had- selling what so many believe today- overpopulation, terrifying diseases and awesome Science, UN and its tentacles as models of virtue…

    Turn them on and suddenly your world will grow in size!
    At least, that’s what you hope as you consume their fabrications.
    It doesn’t matter most of it is emptier than lies:
    The tv and the smart phone goad us to our destinations.

    It happened in the fifties. It’s happening again.
    A realm of new technology unhinges minds and men.

    On “The Great Taking”. (From John Day yesterday)
    That’s not a rabbit hole- it’s a mink’s den!
    “There is pressure to broaden the range of securities eligible as collateral.” (p.14 in the linked version)
    Yeah…Like city, county, state, national parks. Or waterways and infrastructure. Like life insurance companies- your life is the collateral, and the secured holders need to take a loss.
    I’ve often wondered- if the bankcard tells me I have a 20,000 credit line- do they consider that I am in debt to them for that amount whether or not I use it? You can bet they count my 20,000 as an asset!

    “The Great Taking” is as sobering a read as I have had in a long while.
    I wonder what Alex Reporterfy (from the three Alex video a few days ago) has to say about this?

    in reply to: Debt Rattle October 15 2023 #144782

    From a paper in Current Issues in Molecular Biology (MDPI). [I can’t recall where I got this from]

    “5. Conclusions
    Our study is the first in vitro study on the effect of COVID-19 mRNA vaccine BNT162b2 on human liver cell line. We present evidence on fast entry of BNT162b2 into the cells and subsequent intracellular reverse transcription of BNT162b2 mRNA into DNA.”

    all your cells are belong to me!

    I got this video from a comment on ZH. I wasn’t going to post it, but it meshes with the reporter on Rogan’s show. It’s about IsraAID- an NGO that abets Muslim immigration to install enough “antisemitism” to force Jews to flee their countries for Israel…where they become “settlers” in Palestine.
    It’s kind of like punching a hole in the dam because you want a sip of water.

    Here it cleared up just enough before noon tp see the sun with a big bite out of it. This phenomenon had to be impressive to anyone anywhere at any time in history,
    If Gates doesn’t obscure the sky, wonder will continue to happen, and spirits will thrive.
    This must piss him off no end.

    Bloomberg boxed news: NASA’s Psyche spacecraft launches

    You were getting bored with all the games we had you playing.
    You were getting wise to all the people we were slaying.
    You were thinking all our tricks have been so overused
    (It almost seemed like some of you were getting less confused)-
    So now we’ve tickled you with war: are you not amused?

    in reply to: Debt Rattle October 11 2023 #144613

    Thanks, DBS.

    in reply to: Debt Rattle October 10 2023 #144524

    They lived their lives so vapidly- and borrowed so much to do it-
    Their debt compounded rapidly, ’til no one could eschew it.
    The only fix was endless war, and all the cash to fund it:
    “It’s all about morality!” said one more brainless pundit.
    So common sense and decency get scuttled by “the brave”
    And all the world gets shoved into a nameless, early grave.

    I had to view the photo in Brave, btw. Safari wouldn’t load it.

    This is from “greenalba” over at Kunstler’s clusterfuck nation (comments).
    I don’t know the context of the picture- but I saw what she was hinting at pretty quickly.

    in reply to: Debt Rattle October 9 2023 #144431

    Aspnaz- if you go to the archives of your posts, it’s still there. It is also blinded for me in the 8 oct 23 comments, on both Safari and Brave.

    “now ‘scuse me, while I kiss this guy.”
    I see what you did there, Jimi.
    How did YOU sing “revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night”?

    So the answer is supposedly 8, but darned if I can figure out why. Brainly is a nasty site of capturing ads. Turning off JavaS at the right time might help.
    So that’s the answer- y’all have to still figure out how or why.

    Israel. Surprise attack? Really?

    People awaken and sadly discover
    That somebody somewhere decided “It’s war!”
    Maybe they should have paid way more attention-
    Then they might not have to wonder “what for?”

    Bloomberg boxed headline:
    “Taylor Swift effect boosts stocks on both sides of the Atlantic”

    Someday I’ll have to listen to some of her work. Maybe she can be Speaker of the House- lifting the markets like that, and all.

    Taking a break from the end of existence;
    Drenching myself in the grind.
    Pulling in small where I need no resistance-
    Trying to temper my mind.

    The money, the money, goes ’round and ’round.
    ‘Round to the folks who make money unsound.
    ‘Round to the grifters who skim off the top.
    ‘Round ’til the bubbles they’ve blown will go “pop”.

    Things that don’t make sense. Bulgaria to staunch the flow of Russian oil even though they don’t have to.

    In multiplication, a negative times a positive gives a negative. A positive time a positive gives a positive. A negative times a negative gives a positive.
    So I wonder: is it true that two “wrongs” don’t make a “right”?
