You know those kind of nights when you just can't sleep
because the brain won't shut up, or even come up for air? Used to be I'd get that a couple times a year
maybe. Nowadays its more like two a
week. Is it like that for you too? Sure, we have our psychic numbing which
deflects much of the horror going on in our name; but some nights not even that can hold back the towering tsunami
of night terrors facing us, [which we're generally
not acknowledging.] I'm having one
of those nights again tonight, so it must be time to share.
Do you ever feel like it's all just too much for you to
handle? How are we supposed to process
and integrate so much soul crushing daily chaos? The kinds of night terrors that chew thru our
psychic numbing won't be halted by any pop new age psycho-babble, so please
don't offer us any of that.
It isn't all just
the 'news' that spawns night terrors which keep us awake at night; not so long back I awoke to wildfires raging
thru the area I live in, less than ten miles away. Then we have urban snipers to worry about,
not to mention home invasions which are on the increase locally, keeping up
with the national trend.
What about this year's "flu season"? Oh yeah; the government and big pharma put on
a big media campaign every year
to urge folks to get their flu shot.
This is different, its the first time that the evening news on every channel,
every damn night shows photos of the kids who died from the flu today. They're doing this every single day, so
clearly; it's more about scaring people than fighting the flu.
The big picture is showing us that our planet is in distress
because of our human activity. From
climate change to fracking and Fukushima
we are poisoning and contaminating the planet we live on: the air we breathe,
the (flammable)
water we drink, and the GMO poisoned
foods we eat. Just this alone will get
you some serious reality cramps &
night terrors.
After showing us North Korean missile launches week after
week, saying each time they can now reach the American mainland; imagine the
night terrors Hawaiians are having after their false alarm incoming missile
drill recently. Do you really buy the "excuse"
that it was just an accident? Then
consider that a day later, the same thing happened in Japan ! We are being tested folks, not to mention
being seriously fucked with.
Adding to our gallery of night terrors is the fact that
almost every single day there is at least one terrorist attack (or false flag)
somewhere on this beleaguered little planet.
If you are sleeping just fine and have no issues with night
terrors it might be on account that the several pacification technologies the government uses to keep us apathetic
and subdued are working as planned. Are
you always tired, feeling sickly and just don't give a shit? Like I said, they're working!
These pacification
technologies such as chemtrails, HAARP,
fluoridated water, etc. are used
along with GMO foods to literally take us
out of the equation when it comes to resisting the government. The intent is to keep us from filling the
streets in massive protests like in the 60's and 70's by keeping us sick & apathetic. The side effect is that now our children are
eating "Tide" detergent balls which are oddly made to resemble
candy.
What with 59 different and distinct gender identities to
choose from; who has the time to be politically correct by learning all of
them? How large is our individual
identity crisis that we need 59 distinct genders to make sure we're seen as an
individual? Meanwhile, our children are
so disenfranchised with life and addicted to the cyber-world online that they
conspire to murder their friend and blame it on "Slender Man. "
Whether you are a reader of or contributor to the
blogosphere there is just so much of this shit you can expose your soul to
before you hit the wall and simply can't do it any more. I first experienced this years ago when I
counseled fellow Vietnam
veterans to help them deal with their night terrors. After five years of doing that I began having
nightmares. These weren't generic
everyday nightmares, each one was described to me in a counseling session at
one time or another. I didn't have to
ask anyone, I just knew that when my brothers war stories became my real world
nightmares it was time to quit, so I did.
You can only expose you soul to so much shit.
My personal psychic numbing cut it's teeth in Vietnam ,
and honed it's skills thru two divorces, and cruises thru everything the
internet and regular media can throw at it.
At least it was like that until very recently.
This story ripped my psychic numbing to shreds, and then it
just broke my heart; flat out smashed it, and the overwhelming symbolism became
my last straw. After five years of blogging
I've hit the wall, I just cannot keep subjecting my soul to all this shit. Five years seems to be my limit for toxic
environments, [its about how long my
first marriage lasted as well.]
Now this isn't saying I'm done blogging, I'm just gonna take
a huge break from writing about the shit parade. There are more than enough voices covering
all the vile shit, I am not needed there and won't be missed. There are other things to focus upon, and
other conversations to be had...besides it feels like I'm just repeating myself
with the things I rant on about, hoping it helps to bring about change, even if
that change is iceberg slow.
They say that a picture is worth a thousand words, but in
the case of the above photograph of Canadian PM Trudeau taken at the recent World
Economic Forum I'd say a couple thousand at least. At home wearing his bathrobe these socks
might become semi-adorable but wearing them to the world economic forum sends a
distinct message for all to see and if we don't like the message, its clear to
see that he could give a shit less.
They also say that it pays to advertise, so maybe this is
prime minister Trudeau's way of letting all of us know what a huge greedy penis
he is. With socks like this, it doesn't
matter what words come out of his
mouth because the socks are speaking
louder! My enthusiasm for the current trend toward "populist"
leaders like Trump & Trudeau reached
an all time low when I saw this picture, go ahead and be a giant dick, just
don't flaunt it as if it was some kind of virtue.
The worst possible night terror is the narcissistic serial rapist in chief who's been living in the white house for the
last year as his appointed plunder monkeys lay waste to the constitution and
the country in general. It's like a
nightmare that just won't end. We keep
hoping the adults in the white house will take over but none seem to have the
stones for it. We keep thinking that
surely by now someone would have flipped the lights on to jolt us out of this
national nightmare but the ship of state continues to flounder on the shoals in
depraved darkness, with a enfant terrible
at the helm.
Did you see the State of the union speech? First of all, as pointed out in the recent
book "Fire and Fury"
Trump's own staff say he is only semi-literate and has trouble reading. As Bill Maher remarked after the speech; "Trump's
reading was so slow they had to reset the teleprompter to Shatner speed." Then there were all those drawn, unsmiling
faces at the state of the union address, with people standing and applauding on
cue like that old Twilight Zone episode (It's a good life) where everyone was afraid of the little
boy who could banish you to the corn field with a wink if you angered him.
Of course there were a great many lawmakers & congress people who attended but dressed
in black and refused to rise &
applaud on cue like the cool-aide drinkers. Some days later speaking before cameras on
national TV; Trump called these people treasonous for refusing to
applaud him. Talk about the potus
calling the kettle black!! His speech
in many ways was a continuation of inauguration day with low, unenthusiastic
crowds: when some refused to applaud Trump on cue, he just applauded himself
like he usually does. It was so surreal
and even a bit un-nerving watching Trump waving his arms to get the dissenters
to join in the applause. Clearly this
man is insane.
It seems like every time we see the first lady her face is locked into that thousand yard stare so common in survivors of trauma and abuse. I cannot wait for her hand to rise in the air as she says "Me Too."
It seems like every time we see the first lady her face is locked into that thousand yard stare so common in survivors of trauma and abuse. I cannot wait for her hand to rise in the air as she says "Me Too."
Now, after labeling those who don't support him as
treasonous he is demanding a full on military parade with tanks and missiles,
you know just like Russia ,
China and North
Korea have.
This is something we have never done, not even once, because it just
sends the wrong message, so of course the infant dictator wants his
parade. Trump has embraced every single
symptom of being a dictator, except for wearing a military uniform. We should parade him down main street in
chains on his way to jail before that day dawns.
Trump's recent "Shithole" comment was tactically
designed and deployed as a weapon of mass distraction; it was an intentional
diversion to distract from Russia
probe, related scandals, and the fact that he is an imbecile floundering in
waters way too deep for him.
In Charleston Trump stood up for the Nazi's. Trump also stood up for Pedophile Judge Roy
Moore's run for the senate. This last
week he has twice defended aides fired for spouse abuse and sexual
misconduct while literally attacking
their accusers! Have you noticed how
Trump always takes the side of the sexual predators and child
rapists? He keeps repeating "they
deny it all" as if simply saying those words makes them true. The signature trademark of the narcissist is
that he accuses others of the things he is guilty of himself.
Recently Trump said, in defense of those fired aides guilty
of sexual abuse, that there should be "Due
Process." A very interesting
usage of yet another term he doesn't know the meaning of. If he wants due process then fine; let t begin with the 22 women currently
accusing Donald Trump of sexual misconduct.
He openly brags about "grabbing them by the pussy" yet when women accuse him
of doing it he calls them liars. Just
like he does when defending his circle of buddies like Roger Ailes, Bill
O'Reilly, Judge Roy Moore and so many others.
They're all lying cries the king of lies.
"The sickness is strong with this
one"

Just when we think we've seen the depth of depravity in the
child-man; comes the story of porn queen Stormy
Daniels spanking Trump with a copy of Forbes featuring him and Ivanka on
the cover. If he paid Stormy $130,000 to
keep quiet, I must wonder how much he's paying his wife not to raise her hand
and say "Times up, Me Too."
In Trump's new reality TV show "DC Daycare" Sexual Predators are given staff level jobs and
defended by the man with 20 separate accusers himself. No president has ever had so many departures
from his crew in just the first year, and the job of white house press
secretary is essentially a revolving door.
Factor in the four Trump top aides arrested for committing
crimes, and others. Then In the space of just over a week three close advisors to
Trump resigned over allegations of spouse abuse and brutality. At the current rate of firings & dismissals the white house won't have
enough people to play basketball by March.
Sander's job demands that you speak things you know
to be lies, in a convincing enough manner for a sound byte; every day. It takes a severe toll, with cognitive
dissonance being off the scale, as the above recent photo of Sarah Saunders
clearly indicates. I cannot wait to see
who they replace her with when she starts drooling &
spewing word salad nonsense...perhaps Sarah
Palin has a job in the Trump administration after all.
I watched transfixed as the father of two daughters molested
by Olympics physician Dr. Larry Nassar almost got his hands around the perverts
neck before sheriff's deputy's stopped him.
Guess those cops ain't fathers, and if they are they really suck at it. The anguished father asked the judge if he
could have five minutes alone in a room with the pedophile doctor, the judge
declined. The father then asked for just
a single minute, and the judge said "You
know we can't let you do that..."
Then the father said something like "Then I'll have to do it right here" as he vaulted the rail and
charged the monster who had molested both is daughters.
These two movements that have sprung up can forever change
how we treat women in this country, that's just how powerful they are. "Times
Up" and "Me
Too" hold the potential
power for that kind of change; but it won't be easy, the perverts in
power will see to that.
They already have defenses in place in the form of Forced
Arbitration which by-passes the legal system
and places gag orders and non-disclosure agreements which
serve to protect those guilty of sexual misconduct. We need to root these clauses out of every
contract they appear in, make them a federal crime punishable by say a century
in jail...that would bring about some swift improvement.
There is also the matter of fines & penalties paid by those convicted of sexual misconduct in
the senate or congress. When levied,
these fines are currently paid by taxpayers, by you and me. How the fuck is that right?? They get away with it because it's even more
wide spread and prevalent than is being reported, and they will always act in
their own self interest. Flush the
swamp. Get rid of every last one of
these criminal sexual predators and start over with better people. That
is the only way we will ever fix this ongoing nightmare in our country.
"The enfant
terrible knows only that it wants"
It is perhaps interesting to note at this point that in his entire career Donald Trump has always been the "front man" the huckster on TV who ropes you into business with him; but he has never negotiated anything himself...he's just the pitch man. It's always someone else who closes the deals. Trump was never supposed to actually win the presidency - it amazed even him! His fake campaign was to be the the kickoff to the Trump Television Network. His reward was going to be not just a reality sow, but an entire network. Somewhere along the way the Russians hacked the election, the FBI was trying to shut Hillary down, while Trump became addicted to the hero worship and decided to do it for "real."
Trump is intransigent; he just sits there like Jabba the Hutt ... some kind of rogue (TV) star who captured the republican party in his gravity, and all they seem able to do is to helplessly orbit around him whether they like it or not. Meanwhile nothing at all is being done about the Russian interfering with our election(s) either past or future, which is just a bit un-nerving and food for fresh night terrors.
