Elderly People in Government GTFO! Did You Notice that Super Old People Often Have FRIED BRAINS? How Can They Serve the People When they Have No Contact With Reality? But if I Have to Choose Between Biden and Trump... I'll Vote for Joe Again....

What if Mitch McConnell had to make a Decision about How to Vote??? Or ANYTHING???

The Mitch McConnell FREEZING incident is indicative of a bigger problem... 

Both parties are prioritizing the short-term calculus of political power over providing the best possible representation to the American people.

and It's Not Just Republicriminals... Dianne Feinstein is Super Old and SHOWING Failure of Her Brain... 

Headline: Feinstein gets confused in Senate Appropriations hearing and has to be prodded to vote...

The Mycologist & The Mathematician

This is the story of prodigal friends

A complex encounter which starts where it ends

A labyrinth of thinking, all ladders and snakes

One sleeps every move, while the other awakes

One of these men had a maze in his mind

The other connected to all things outside

Their energy flows in the tricks that they play

Each of them experts in opposite ways

First the mycologist, mushrooms and mould

He reads his opponent, then looks to his soul

Then Mathematician, equations sublime

Puzzling his foe as he travels through time

Organic in nature, they journey so far

Seeking their clues in the dust of the stars

Unlocking all secrets and cosmic laws

Solving all riddles, unlocking all doors

Hope everyone had a weird and wonderful start to the year, ive parked my UFO in Frome, set up my new space and am slowly untangling all the things I’m working on. Finished this piece I made of the cosmic prophet of love & laughter that is @duncantrussell rewatched @themidnightgospel and have been listening to a load of DTFH podcasts, it’s like going to a trippy alien school on another planet and catching up on all the strange Inter-dimensional stuff they should teach us here on Earth… Got some cool stuff lined up & pretty much drawing every minute of every day, which is exactly how it should be… hope your week is going well…

With a $15.00 an Hour Minimum Wage people will have money 

to spend on things that they cannot afford to buy now. The 

Money will BUBBLE UP Through Out the Entire Economy. Corporations will get more sales... More Profits... and they will 

have to HIRE more employees to handle the increased business. 

More Stock Clerks, More Cashiers, More Truck Drivers... and 

those people will spend their paychecks at American Businesses... 

all boats rise on a tide... Employers Win, Employees Win, 

Stockholders Win... 

So, what can one person DO to get this Economic Plan Enacted? 
Well, Like and Share this Post... Copy and Paste the images and 

Ideas... Write your own Blog... Rant on Facebook and Twitter... 

What we need to do is spread valid ideas in order to counteract 

the propaganda spewed by Corporate "Think Tanks" like The 

Cato Institute or The Heritage Foundation... They will make 

up any story to enrich the Upper Class. 

They work on the Backwards-World Scientific Principle... Write 

 conclusions first then find "Facts" to support what they want 

to sell.

Real Science collects Facts first, then looks at them to find 

conclusion. The exact opposite to Cato & Heritage... 

#BubbleUP Economics Works! Raise the Minimum Wage to 15 Dollars an Hour - Raise All Social Security Checks 15% - WE PROMISE TO SPEND THE EXTRA MONEY. Increasing Sales, Increasing Profits... EVERYBODY WINS!

What IS Bubble UP Economics and How Does it Work? Simply Raise the Minimum Wage to Fifteen Dollars an Hour and Raise all Social Security Checks 15%. Then all Those people will spend the extra money in their paychecks at American Businesses. Increasing Profits. Making Stockholders Happy! Then those businesses will have to hire more people to handle the extra Customers. Decreasing Unemployment Insurance Payments. Everybody WINS! With EMPLOYMENT AT A JOB becoming a Viable Alternative to Selling Drugs for a Street Gang, Some teenagers will choose Employment... Reducing CRIME... Reducing Costs for Prisons... Reducing Costs for Law Enforcement... People will buy more food for their Children. Causing Better Health and Smarter Kids... Starvation is Not Good for Children's Brains... Farmers will sell More. Truckers will move more merchandise to stores. Increased Competition for Workers will cause Everybody's Wages to Go Up. All those Workers will pay more in Income Taxes... That would make the Government happy... Right NOW, we are having a National Debt Ceiling Crisis because the Government is Spending More that it Takes in with Taxes... Bubble UP Economics would reverse that trend... The Money Bubbles UP Through Every Layer of Society... With a rising tide, every boat floats! We Tried Ronald Reagan's "Voodoo" Economics and It Has Failed... "People" Say That Bubble UP! Economics WILL MAKE Employers LAY OFF Workers... However... Employers HAVE ALREADY LAID OFF EVERYONE THEY POSSIBLY CAN... Have you Ever Seen a Business where People Work There but Have Nothing To DO? Never! 

Who Could Possibly be Opposed to the JOY of Bubble UP! Economics? Well, there are people in this world that have COMPULSIVE HOARDING OF MONEY SYNDROME. It's a Mental Health Disease just Like The Crazy Cat Lady...

and then on FaceBorg I read... 

and it made sense! 

Since I have a place to vent, pardon me if I go off on a little tangent.

I don't particularly care about Joe Biden. I hired him to do one thing. Don't be Trump.

Mission accomplished.

I haven't seen a single truck (or Prius for that matter) with a Biden flag. In fact, from all I can tell the Biden flag looks like this .

If Biden did some nefarious shit, if they can bring the receipts, if it can be proven,..great, ..get him too!! Otherwise there seems to be a bunch of hollow chest beating by means of distraction.

I don't know a single person that voted for Hunter Biden. That being said, I'd vote Hunter before I'd vote Trump. Hell, I'd vote Gary Busey, Kermit the Frog or Darth Vader before Trump. Although, I would prefer a better option.

It is odd to have to hear that since I can see through Trump's bullshit that I am socialist or communist or fascist. This brings me to the bigger danger than Trump. The bigger danger by far is his base. Without his nimrod base, Trump is just a old racist grandfather spouting off at Thanksgiving. His base emboldens him but not nearly as much as he emboldens them. It has all the hallmarks of a cult. At least 8/10 cult. Would not recommend

1. Charismatic Leader - Rich** Orange Guy

2. Manipulative Tactics - Everyone but Rich Orange Guy is the enemy

3. Isolation *does not apply*

4. Unique Belief System -Deep state is finna kills us all, without rich orange guy

5. Financial Exploitation - rich orange guy needs your money to defend you from the deep state

6. Strict Hierarchies - only rich orange guy knows what is best.

7. Groupthink - rich orange guy, rich orange guy rich orange guy,

8. Psychological Manipulation - two words 'Alternative facts'

9. Secrecy *does not apply*

10. Unhealthy Behaviors - ketchup. Maybe inciting and performing insurrection.

**Not as wealthy as he claims, just ask Leticia James.

I think a disproportionately large portion of this guys base are folks who are poor, white, uneducated..but they don't see themselves like that. To them, they are all down on their luck millionaires just waiting for their ship to come in. They think they are the elite and not being given the respect they deserve. Part of a special club. Ya know..a cult.

The hivemind, cult of personality if it has to be softened. It's dangerous and it's binary. Because they all have a infallible hero, then we must agree with everything Joe Biden says and does. Since they think abortion bad and the majority of the rest of the world thinks it's an issue between a patient and a doctor, we must all want to 86 babies. Since they think they are patriots***, everyone else must be communist, socialist and fascist. Yes, all three all at the same time. . Since they can't differentiate between an asylum seeker, a legal immigrant and an illegal immigrant we must all want open borders.

*** not patriots , patriots win their insurrection. You have to win. If you lose, you are not a patriot. That is a traitor, traitor, loser and bagged the wrong horse. No, the gravy seals are not patriots, meal team 6 loses Patriot status once they fail their insurrection.

I haven't heard one anti-trump person speak pro communism, pro 86'n babies, pro open borders.

Maybe I'm just hanging out in the wrong circles, but I haven't come across a single trans person or member of the LGBT community with an "agenda" beyond paying rent. I didn't even know it was called WOKE, I just thought it was called thinking about someone other than myself. Or, ya know,..not being a dick.

I don't think this douchenozzle is going to see the inside of a cell. Maybe, maybe an ankle monitor, but unlikely. If these 91 Indictments only prove all his behavior and motivations, I guess I will have to be content. I'd sure like him in an orange jumpsuit and those premolded plastic bamboo style slippers.

One would think that at some point his base would see through the one term, twice impeached, sexual predator (reads rapist), tax fraud, 91 times indicted, delusional, narcissistic, lying .

But noooooooo, the just dig in deeper as though he is the second coming of white baby "new and improved fightin' " Jesus.

I guess we just hang on and don't forget to vote.

Election season has come. Here’s what you need to do to stop Trump from winning... Robert Reich
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/sep/06/election-2024-beginning-how-to-stop-trump

America is about to start a terrifyingly high-stakes ride. 
What can the rest of us do between now and the election to help save American democracy? Let me try out a few answers:

Do everything within your power to ensure that Donald Trump is not re-elected president. For some of us, this will mean taking time out of our normal lives to become more directly politically involved – up to and including getting out the votes in critical swing states.

Do not succumb to the tempting anesthesia of complacency or cynicism. The stakes are too high. Even if you cannot take much time out of your normal life for direct politics, you will need to organize, mobilize and energize your friends, colleagues and neighbors.

Counter lies with truth. When you hear someone repeating a Trump Republican lie, correct it. This will require that you prepare yourself with facts, logic, analysis and sources.

Do not tolerate bigotry and hate. Call it out. Stand up to it. Denounce it. Demand that others denounce it, too.

Do not resort to violence, name-calling, bullying or any of the other tactics that Trump followers may be using.

Be compassionate toward hardcore followers of Trump, but be firm in your opposition. Understand why someone may decide to support Trump, but don’t waste your time and energy trying to convert them. Use your time and energy on those who still have open minds.

Don’t waste your time and energy commiserating with people who already agree with you. Don’t gripe, whine, wring your hands and kvetch with other progressives about how awful Trump and his Republican enablers are. Don’t snivel over or criticize Biden and the Democrats for failing to communicate more effectively. None of this will get you anything except an upset stomach or worse.

Demonstrate, but don’t mistake demonstrating for political action. You may find it gratifying to stand on a corner in Berkeley with a sign asking drivers to “honk if you hate fascism” and elicit lots of honks, but that’s as politically effectual as taking a warm shower. Organize people who don’t normally vote to vote for Biden. Mobilize get-out-the-vote efforts in your community. Get young people involved.

Don’t get deflected by the latest sensationalist post or story by or about Trump. Don’t let the media’s short-term attention span divert your eyes from the prize – the survival of American democracy during one of the greatest stress tests it has had to endure, organized by one of the worst demagogues in American history.

"My main purpose in life is not to put songs in people’s ears but to put them on their lips." - Pete Seeger

Pete spent his time on earth planting, healing, building, laughing, singing, loving, embracing, and advocating peace.

Pete brought the world closer together with his music. Every day, every minute, someone in the world is singing a Pete Seeger song. For over six decades, he introduced Americans to songs from other cultures, like "Wimoweh from South Africa, "Guantanamera" from Cuba, and "Tzena, Tzena, Tzena" from Israel.

in the 1960s, Pete visited Israel twice. In addition to performances in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, he played at Kibbutz Kfar Azza. (See photograph below.) He also did an impromptu midnight concert at an army base in the Negev.

During his 1964 visit (he also came in 1967, just weeks before the Six-Day War), an army base’s command car rescued Pete and his family when their car got stuck in a flood. After the commander pulled them out, Pete took his banjo out and started to sing.

In the video below, The Weavers treat us to "Tzena, Tzena, Tzena".

"Until I started living in New York at age 19-20, I knew so little about Jewish culture, it was shameful. It was in New York that I befriended some Jewish musicians. From one of these young men I learned 'Tzena, Tzena, Tzena' in 1948. I performed the song with The Weavers in a Greenwich Village nightclub, not knowing anything of the song's history or even its meaning. I eventually learned that the song is a rousing call to ‘join the celebration’ with ‘people from every nation’ who'll ‘dance the hora’ until ‘dawn will find us laughing in the sunlight dancing in the city square’.” – Pete Seeger

"Legendary songwriter, singer, and political activist Pete Seeger's 'Tzena, Tzena, Tzena' was a great example of the power of music not only to entertain, but to bring people together." – Lowell Milken, the creator of the Milken Archive of Jewish Music which explores the vast panorama of sacred and secular works of 360 years of Jewish life in America.

"The truth is Pete Seeger made 'Tzena, Tzena, Tzena' a song of peace, made it a song of joy. May God bless Pete Seeger." - Issachar Miron

Issachar Miron was born in 1919 and left Poland at the age of 19, thus avoiding the Holocaust. In 1941, while serving in the Jewish Brigade of the British forces, he composed the melody for the lyrics of "Tzena, Tzena, Tzena" written by Yechiel Chagiz. The song became popular in Palestine and was played on the Israeli radio.

"Come out, come out, come out girls from the village - welcome home the soldiers. Good sentiments for any country. The second line says . . . Girls, don’t be modest . . . give them a good welcome!” – Pete Seeger talking about the lyrics of "Tzena, Tzena, Tzena"

The songs of The Weavers and Pete Seeger are sung by people in cities and villages around the world, promoting the basic idea that the hopes that unite us are greater than the fears that divide us.

If you are in a union or was in a union what was/is the pros and cons? What are some great unions to be apart of? I've never been involved in a union.

We Had a Union at Work. They Negotiated High Pay, Vacation Time, Holidays, Coffee Breaks... Health Insurance and Retirement... EXCELLENT! I worked at the County of Humboldt in California. Department of Health and Human Services... and there are not that many jobs at all in Eureka... or Arcata... You can work at the College or at a Lumber Mill or on a Fishing Boat... or a clerk at Grocery Store, Target or Starbucks...

Sixty years ago, JFK fought for peace against his own military and intelligence agencies. He died trying.

Kennedy, Malcolm X, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and Senator Robert F. Kennedy. Told through over 120 interviews, FOUR DIED TRYING delves deep, uncovering buried truths and fresh perspectives from family, colleagues, friends … and enemies.
