1984 is Now Here in the USA. The NDAA is Clearly Unconstitutional... Infinite Detention Without Trial by Jury is in the 6th Amendment BUT... The SCOTUS Ruling was That The Government HAS THE RIGHT to Incarcerate American Citizens Indefinitely for Vague Charges... or NO CHARGES AT ALL...


NDAA is No Longer the subject of a Lawsuit. 

Trial by Jury is part of the 6th Amendment to the Constitution. 
Obama clearly signed a law that is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
The most controversial provisions to receive wide attention were contained in subsections 1021–1022 of Title X, Subtitle D, entitled "Counter-Terrorism", authorizing the indefinite military detention of persons the government suspects of involvement in terrorism, including U.S. citizens arrested on American soil. 

The legislation permitted the U.S. government to indefinitely detain people "who are part of or substantially support Al Qaeda, the Taliban or associated forces engaged in hostilities against the United States".[7] The plaintiffs contended that Section 1021(b)(2) of the law allows for detention of citizens and permanent residents taken into custody in the U.S. on "suspicion of providing substantial support" to groups engaged in hostilities against the U.S. such as al-Qaeda and the Taliban[6] respectively that the NDAA arms the U.S. military with the ability to imprison indefinitely journalists, activists and human-rights workers based on vague allegations.[8]

A federal court in New York issued a permanent injunction blocking the indefinite detention powers of the NDAA but the injunction was stayed by the Second Circuit Court of Appeals pending appeal by the Obama Administration. On July 17, 2013, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the district court's permanent injunction blocking the indefinite detention powers of the NDAA because the plaintiffs lacked legal standing to challenge the indefinite detention powers of the NDAA. The Supreme Court declined to hear the case on April 28, 2014, leaving the Second Circuit decision intact.[9] 


and NOW for something completely different..
and more FUN.


League for Spiritual Discovery:

What IS the League for Spiritual Discovery ?
The League was a BRAND NEW RELIGION that had as a HOLY SACRAMENT the chemical LSD. Founded by Dr. Timothy Leary to challenge the laws making LSD illegal. The plan was that there was pre-existing cases legalizing Peyote by the Native American Church, so why not LSD? Sadly, this plan didn't work... However it did inspire Leary to recommend that other individuals start their OWN religion...

Why SHOULD you found your own religion? Write your OWN Bible? Well, WHY NOT? It would be more LIKELY to work for you than a religion written by someone else thousands of years ago...

One of the first things you have to decide is: should you have followers? Is your place in the cosmos to BE Jesus, Buddha or KRSNA? Or... do you want your own religion to be a private affair? "Think for Yourself and Question Authority" - Timothy Leary Visit the "Official" website:

Link to the Brotherhood of Eternal Love
The Brotherhood was a Laguna Beach criminal organization
founded by surfers that smuggled Hashish into the USA from Mexico inside of hollowed out surfboards. A person that was talented enough to build their own surfboard would have an easy time creating one that had a space for contraband. Once the resin coating of the board has dried it is impossible to tell what is inside... Then they just put the boards on to the roof rack and drove across the border at Tijuana... A clever technique!
They also distributed a brand of LSD-25 called Orange Sunshine. One of the most popular brands created in the USA...
Famous for High Quality and LARGE Dose... The Brotherhood was hired by the Weather Underground to orchestrate Timothy Leary's Jailbreak... He was successful and moved to a foreign country called Algeria to live briefly with Eldridge Cleaver. What ever happened to The Documentary Movie called ORANGE SUNSHINE?

Aldous Huxley wrote a book called ISLAND where he describes a psychedelic utopia... The Leary Group IFIF attempted to create this paradise in Mexico off the coast of Baja California... of course, it didn't work due to many different factors... but a second attempt was wildly successful... It's called Humboldt Nation and is situated on the North Coast of California.
You might be motivated to shout: EUREKA! I HAVE FOUND IT! If you look at the Official Seal of the great state of California, you will see a seated lady overlooking a bay with boats and the word Eureka... NOT KIDDING...
It refers to the Gold Rush of 1849 when miners were supposedly quoting ancient Greek Mathemticians... A more likely phrase would have been YAHOO! But that would lead to copyright infringement... Yippie! was already taken by Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin's group Youth International Party.

Beta-testing for Elon Musk‘s Starlink internet is slated to arrive this summer and users can now sign up with their email address and zip code on its official website. The SpaceX program aims to allow access to the Internet from virtually anywhere on earth and poor regions with no internet, slow connectivity or generally have expensive services can benefit from the commercial program.

As of now, the startup launched 500 satellites into earth’s orbit this year, with the goal of providing Internet access to most of the world by 2021. In a Tweet, Musk said that Seattle and Germany would be the first to regions to get to trials with an official commercial launch in North America already in the works for late this year.

The Internet is a Great Benefit to Retired People. Years ago, Men would Retire from Work and Die Quickly... Due to Boredom... Lack of Things to Fill up their time...

It's Possible that the Internet will actually extent the lifespan of Retired People... It keeps the Mind Occupied... Chatting with Friends on Facebook... Writing an Autobiography... Uploading Music Videos and Art... Writing Opinion Articles for a Blog. It appears that about a hundred people a day read my words of wisdom. Even if my words are NOT particularly Wise. It keeps my mind active thinking up what to say... Learning Stuff... Watching Music Videos on Youtube... Looking at Photographs taken by people I know... I especially enjoy Videos of the Children in my Family... 

I remember that My Father used to Watch the News on TV and It would make him angry... So he would yell at the TV... NOT as satisfying as WRITING an opinion article and publishing it on Google's Blogger, Facebook, Tumblr, Ello, Mastodon, Minds and Wordpress... People read My Words and Comment... 

I tried sitting on the back porch and observing the trees... and the creek... It's not that great... 

Just watching TV all day allows Other People to Determine What is Available to Watch... and what IDEAS are Poured into My Brain... They are in business to sell advertising and so they simply show whatever the most number of people with disposable income want to watch... For Example: On my dish we have about ten movie channels and they repeat the top 100 movies again and again... Men in Black, Harry Potter, Ghostbusters and Total Recall are shown about once a week...

However there are a few networks that provide different content. Free Speech TV, Link TV, CSPAN and PBS all have no advertisements and NO CORPORATE MASTERS. 





I do miss actually LIVING LIFE but I also do like spending all my time in the artificial worlds of the Internet and Television... Like a Matrix Pod Person.

Photos of the Samba Parade in Arcata, California


I see that someone has built a ZIPLINE in the Arcata Forest... I've ridden zip lines also... The first time was at Camp Campbell in the Santa Cruz Mountains and the other time was at the Rainbow Gathering in Pennsylvania... 



I am writing a LOT... and am averaging 200 readers a day... It's important to publish my Ideas because what happens is that I state an opinion in public and then the vast majority of people say I'm Wrong... then 10 years later they WAKE UP say I'm Right... What I want to do is decrease the AWAKENING TIME FOR THE PUBLIC... The Sooner they REad My Opinions... the Faster they Wake UP.

Great Book: "How to Fix the Future" by Andrew Keen. A Plan for Thriving in a Digital World.

https://www.amazon.com/How-Fix-Future-Andrew-Keen/dp/0802126642

There are five key tools that Keen identifies: regulation, competitive innovation, social responsibility, worker and consumer choice, and education. We also need to rethink our education systems to teach kids about the stuff that machines will never be able to do, and to start planning a new social security system that will provide a safety net for all the people whose lives will be disrupted by automation.


Great Movie: "Stare into the Lights my Pretties" about the cultural impact of computers and The Internet...



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5qJjNM2Kx0
We live in a world of screens. The average adult spends the majority of their waking hours in front of some sort of screen or device. We're enthralled, we're addicted to these machines. How did we get here? Who benefits? What are the cumulative impacts on people, society and the environment? What may come next if this culture is left unchecked, to its end trajectory, and is that what we want? *Stare Into The Lights My Pretties* investigates these questions with an urge to return to the real physical world, to form a critical view of technological escalation driven by rapacious and pervasive corporate interest. Covering themes of addiction, privacy, surveillance, information manipulation, behaviour modification and social control, the film lays the foundations as to why we may feel like we're sleeprunning into some dystopian nightmare with the machines at the helm. Because we are, if we don't seriously avert our eyes to stop this culture from destroying what is left of the real world.

I wonder what life form we will become after the singularity and the Internet Becomes Conscious? Lets Build Futureworld!

 I really am enjoying internet access and expressing my opinions to the public. 

I had a great NA meeting and I actually spoke. Often I am silent but the subject was doing service and I have practical experience doing service for fellow AA members in Chico. 

I also have been writing an Autobiography for the Facebook Group. "Things I remember growing up in Los Gatos"

I was very active a couple of years ago in this group and uploaded everything I remembered but all those posts are not visible as Facebook only shows the last few weeks of data. THIS TIME, I'm saving a copy to my google blog, my wordpress site, tumblr, Pinterest, Deviant Art and twitter... 

I'm also copying and pasting the best of vandergreg.com and updating the words to reflect my latest views... All my websites since 1997 have been saved at The Internet Archive...

When the Internet becomes conscious... it will have every opinion of mine and an autobiography so it can easily build... whatever life form comes after the singularity... I wonder what we will be called... MEME? IDURU?

I'm a big fan of science fiction but I'm even more enthusiastic about science face. 
What's Kurzweil up to these days?

What IS "Bubble-UP Economics" and how does it work? Simply put, increase minimum wage and all those workers will have more money to spend at American Businesses. The increased sales will cause a need to hire more workers. The increased profits will cause more money to be paid in taxes and increased earnings by stockholders. Everyone WINS.

We have tried "Trickle Down Economics" for decades and it has clearly failed. Why not try something different? I have found that when I try something and it fails, and then I try the same thing and it fails again and the it continues to fail for the third, fourth and fifth time... It's time to notice the trend and try something different. DUH.

I foresee one group mind on planet earth. Interconnected by the internet... Worldwide Friends...
