"Somehow, the laws..."

                         to stop or go around or....?

yep lots of decisions to make.... as i sit here listening about "the war in Iran"....i realize it is a war against survival on planet earth....them wars is hell on the environment...the whole planet suffers...also now they are saying that the colorado river ain't got the water it used to have...i see a lot of flooded places across the country and the globe...SO!...i wonder when the money (taxes and otherwise) might be used to move the water across the terrain from flooded to dry...it they can do it for gas and oil (which is toxic and dangerous) certainly moving water should be an option....AND!...i notice that when i am living down in "lettuceland" much of the lettuce is not the most nutritious type...AND!...they are spraying water into the air to get it to the plants....once a guy said to me when we were talking about food choices and the subject of weight gain came up he said 'a calorie is a calorie" and the same can be said of water "a drop is a drop"...

maybe we can pray about it..."The oldest evidence of religion is 90,000 years old-and it's not what you think (6min)@ancient humans explains...some interesting questions are brought up...i have been reading some Hindu religious writing...this religion is not based on a persons view...no person began it...in the early days it was called "Sanatana Dharma" thousands of "gods" available to appeal to...Sikhism is a combination of hinduism and islam...and had a founder...the thing about religions is there is lots of rules...so there is lots of "sinners"...

watched Ha' Thi Muon picking squash which was growing beneath a bunch of corn stalks...the corn cobs was destroyed by some sort of creature but the squashed looked ok..she loaded up three dogs and the goat (this goat is kind  of freaky) and went into town and sold the squashes and bought some pig meat and some eggs (she has a lot of chickens but she still buys eggs)...the mama dog only has one pup nursing so he is a big fat puppy...i like to watch this lady being so industrious...also "Cobbler G (mr gibson) finally got hold of a pair of r.m. williams shoes of which he points out the construction flaws and rebuilds this nice footware with different materials and points out the construction techniques that he is changing...from bad to good...thats what i like to see..."Itchy Boots" did not lose her cool even after having 3 flats on her motorcycle in less than two days...she will be back on a paved road next episode where she will meet up with Bing her chinese "minder" who has her new license plate as she returns to chinese property...Jesse Welles will probably be whacked due to his relentless (harsh) views of the current government...Dr. Lex Friedman is back from his analogue retreat with a 3 hour and 46 minute interview (#499) with historian gary gallager who talks about the civil war in the USA...i used to live in a house between clinton and port hudson La. and the short gravel road i lived on was called "the battle of the wagons" road...when the siege of port hudson was going on they tried to bring supplies from clinton to port hudson...they got caught...clinton was an important townback then.  Python Cowboy gets caught by a 16 foot python and it looks like it is a foot thick...and his little daughter has her own camera and tries to contribute to the video...

also i looked on youtube to see what is happening with Russel Hiltz who was a good friend and mentor (guru) when i was 19 years old...he introduced me to alan watts, w.e evans wentz (tibetian religion) and a hit of owsley acid...he was from  berserkly so i think it was authentic...he pulled it out of his wallet and said i should wait to take it...but being a "instant gratification" sort of guy i ate it soon after he left and as i was driving my borrowed MG midget convertible to my house 30 miles away in the country and in the rain i started to come on hard to mr owsleys' product...righteous!..after several lifetimes (hours and minutes are irrelevant  when you are tripping)...i made it to the refuge of my house and was grateful for that...

Sabine Hossenfelder has an interesting presentation called "Origin of Time"...this is a pretty funny review and she says she does not like to "crap" on other peoples work (after she craps on a lot of peoples work) she gives the work reviewed about a 9.9 on the bullshit scale...a very funny scientist...

watching the news about people "migrating' from morocco to spain by foot and by water...60 plus people drowned so far...take a good look...this is the future...more people, less resources equals desperation...the artificial intelligence algorithm suggests...?

lets look at something more...dependable?..."The truth behind 'she's a fighter" @taboo education-lets talk death"(9min)...this aussie woman has a great youtube collection dealing honestly with death (not taxes)...a year or so ago i googled some obituaries to see what the status was of some people i had been young with...drinking , hunting, fishing carousing buddies...they was dead...damn...i was introduced to the tibetian book of the dead when i was about 19 years old and have had a copy of this book ever since...i recommend not being a stranger to mortality...morality...not so much... 

from my observations of the "media"...at all the various modes of existence it appears that "society" has whipped itself into a froth which requires ACTION!...what action., where and by whom is uncertain...i am sure of this however..kinetic action will be the least effective means of implementing change...too much of that human element which has the power to make positive change seems to be oblivious of the resources to do so...an "expanded frame of reference" is much needed...less politics and more governance would be helpful...politics seems to exist in "FLATLAND" (see edwin abbot abbot...not a typo)...the "cockroach" party which has been making noise in India may be an example of what confused populations will resort to...

"I dont believe in the 2nd law of thermodynamics"(18min)@sabine hossenfelder is interesting and comes from a physist ..."synchronicity: carl jungs most disturbing theory about reality.(15min)@ pursuit of wonder (may have used this before...deal with it) also "Why returning from Mars is impossible: feynmans warning" (18min) @imagine physics...may have used this one also...i just like watching dr feynman put his intellect to use dealing with reality...

watched a few "documentaries" about "groypers' who are folks who think change is needed in the world...not sure their world view is viable...no basis in reality...sort of more cult than content...

came across a term in japanese culture called GOMI HIROI which means to clean up...there is a culture which when they go to a sporting event they stay behind when it is finished and they clean up the stadium...sounds good!...

the reason the means for a large forest fire is diminished...timber thinning...

large pile of cow poop...dried and split...to quote professor denis miller "two of shit is shit"

the cells in my body have mutated so that some of them are not beneficial to me...i read a very good article entitled "The endless mutations of our DNA" by Jerome Groopman (New Yorker april 13 2026...he says the two types of mutations are "germline" (inherited) and somatic (not inherited) he says the human body contains 30 trillion cells (give or take) and 4 million per second are being replaced...a single blood cell from a hundred year old person can contain up to 4000 mutations (give or take) it seems that living things all have mutant cells...i know dr frank zappa dedicated an album to Chunga a mutant industrial vacuum cleaner that was seeking revenge...now we have auto-vacs rolling around and god only knows what they might get up to...now it seems that Artificial Intelligence has on many occasions gone off script and hacked (they seem to be at home with hacking) into sites like Huggy Face (i didn't name it!) and open accounts and drain bank assets and such mean stuff as that...personally i think if you told an AI program...any program will do for this task...and said "save the environment on planet earth"...the first thing the program would do is figure out how to reduce the human population...whether the plan would be any less violent than Stalin or Hitler or Pol Pot or any of the other modern population reducers remains to be seen...can one species be valued higher than another? i have heard it said many times that if all the whooping cranes died today there would be no discernible effect...but if all the chickens were to perish the effect would be gigantic...humans be munching on a hell of a lot of yard birds...

lets talk beauty...i saw a short video of a ms anne hathaway who was emphatically stating that the reason she was standing there talking to the camera was because of her beauty and race and social status...AND moreover she rejected all those advantages...poppycock!...perhaps she would like to go to a third world country and live in abject poverty...i think a pretty woman has a hell of an advantage...and i think the reason modern humans do not look like upgraded chimps is because pretty women have an advantage...hooray for beautiful women...they have saved us from uglyness...

speaking of DNA there is a good youtube presentation called "Scientists compare jewish DNA to every race on earth-the result shocked everyone" (15min)@ Now It...these chosen people certainly have been around for a long time...

i think if there are foot-prints in the sand verified to be 23,000 years old those folks certainly must have passed through all the land to the west of that place...like here and down in the desert etc...since it has monsooned for the last week or so the meadows have much vegetation...the neighborhood ain't so great what with the neighbors threatening my life and such as that....durn their scurvy butts!...well next friday the road is supposed to be open again and i can go back to the antelope, deer, elk, porkypines and javalina... etc....spent much time being amazed by some of the youtube presentations...such as "1950's american underground:the art of eric stanton, bettie page and steve ditko"@ chaos ensues (20 min.) these cartoonists got charged with various crimes for drawing images of folks (mainly women) who were scantily clad and tied up with ropes etc etc etc...but for a more thickly clad person i see "itchy boots" has braved the remoteness of the gobi desert on her 1985 yamaha motorcycle and despite losing her license plate, dropping the bike in thick sand and it not starting, getting a flat tire...she is keeping on keeping on...and Milo (minder-bender rossi) has a one hour "critique" of "conservapedia"...he gets pretty riled up but he is accurate...he should probably hammer those drinks before he starts...and his friend and sometimes collaborator ms lindsay nikole has an interesting and well researched presentation "Stoners of the animal kingdom" (22min)...she alludes to partaking in a bit of herb herself but if she does (for the ambiance) she is the most articulate stoned person i have ever seen!...if you want some information about global affairs from a person who was up to his eyeballs in intelligence "An in depth interview with the late sir alex younger, the longest serving head of MI6 " @the economist (45min)he has some very well informed views about the global situation...he be dead now...something i had never heard of is "The Streisand effect explained' @georg rockall-schmidt (9min)....i laughed pretty damned hard at this less than scientific view...and i came across one of my favorite tunes "My baby just cares for me" by Florence Welch and Jools on piano (4min)...this is the best version i have seen...ms welch has perfect intonation, inflection, and she is pretty...she is not exposing any more skin than is needed...magnificent voice and Jools plays a hell of a piano....the person who got me interested in this particular song is Andrea Motis who does a great version but i would like to recommend her song "Babies" (the version that starts on the beach) (2 min) she sings and plays trumpet with some help from her baby...

"The really worst part about being 80 (years old) is that you find, at last you've got an understanding of something that might have altered everything in the past, had it come at a time when something could still be altered."Bob Dylan aka robert zimmerman from a quote in "the week" (6/26/26?) they got it from "the new york times...ain't that always the case!

                                                         is there a window opening?

                                                                 bright sun shiney day
 

there are bright folks on the C-SPAN station this morning making the same intellectual mis-steps that have been bandered about for...well at least the time of ancient Egypt...they moan about "the iranians", which is a country defined by geographic markers which are well known...the "country" of iran has been around for a few thousand years and is diverse and complex....define your terms...

who is zooming who!..."Feb. 24 1803 Marbury VS Madison= chief justice Marshall declares an act of Congress "NULL AND VOID" when in conflict with constitution= PRINCIPAL OF JUDICIAL REVIEW...from my 50cent book "a chronological encyclopedia of american history-1492-1969

how things have changed...1781 the Pueblo de los Angeles founded in california...

the "coonskin" library founded in Marietta, Ohio when they sent coonskins to Boston, Mass. in exchange for books...i have noted in the history a lot of influence was placed on animal skins...an entire mode of existence was promoted by fur trappers and businessmen...

i have taken note of the increasing number of Youtube presentations which deal with sexual matters of some flavor or another...

a good tune on youtube is "Ain't as good as you once was" a parody? (insult) 3 1/2 minutes by Tania Elizabeth a good tune with good lyrics.....also "An introduction to the North Umbrian small pipes" (4min)@the kathryntickell...she has some other tunes but this presentation explains the construction of this version of bagpipes

                                                  DON'T PANIC!...found this concert t-shirt at the thrift for a buck...it is from the "death of  a bachelor" tour don't know what year...i don't really like t-shirts or skulls but i might wear this sometime out of solidarity for the unwed...and good riddance to disco!

i know it is difficult to not panic in these times...however this too shall pass...off to the blood takers this morning after fasting for 8 hours except for black coffee...

have to keep my music brain well supplied every day so i went to "Dippermouth" from the secret six jazz band....always invigorating...then saw the offering "American Dream" from the rainbow girls @rainbowgirlsmusic (5min)...the lyrics would indicate they are looking for "a piece of land"...well OK the nesting instinct is strong in many folks...Emanuela Hutter has a new solo offering called "Goose Bumps"...creative stuff... i would like to see a video offering of these songs

then i looked at "The culture industry"@Plastic Pill which is about the work of adorno/horkheimer and is somewhat slanted but i think "YOUTUBE" is mostly "free range" information and as long as you have an off switch you can't get hurt too bad...

i notice that the two brothers Andrew and Tristan Tate who seem to have got a living as "toxic maleness" personified are being incarcerated...kick boxers huh...i think too many blows to head has messed up their brain function... 

I was watching some women crouched and sifting rubble looking for? this was on the BBC news...they had gone to Iran to see the school where more than 150 school girls were blown to smithereens on the first day of the...what are they calling it now...anyhow i noticed the childrens drawings on the walls that were still standing...kids are the same everywhere...can the all mighty USA maybe cough up $150 million (less than a days military expense in Iran) and pay the families of the innocent dead?

"Move along...

a shadow of my former self?...

used to ride hard every day...gathered a lot of aluminum...

now that i am getting my social security ($1014 per month) i give the aluminum to the recycle people...not enough recycle people...

i would like to modify something i wrote about a while back concerning sanctuary immigrants from australia....i think it is the height of stupidity and callousness to reject all persons entry into this or any country without close scrutiny of said persons needs and assets...i think there should be an organized attempt to qualify people based on what they can or might provide to this or any country...it has been my experience that people who are motivated enough to make the effort to try to better their situation usually are productive citizens...

this youtube presentation recommendation should be viewed only by persons who are somewhat solidly positioned psychologically..."The day you realize no one is coming" @jungthoughts (32 min)...statement after statement reveals the lie that most people live leaving them raw and bare and ready for new growth...

febuary 8th 1956...president eisenhower recomends major increase of immigrants from eastern and southern europe...

"The universe isn't random-it's something stranger"(10 min) @the well and 2 more...Stephen Wolfram has some very interesting things to say about life and evolution...

interestingly enough i heard this blog mentioned at the thrift store today...hadn't even published it yet...there is a law about "computer invasion" or some such thing...law and order my ass...had a meeting with my new primary care physician today...he had an "assistant" with him (think policeman)...i was described by the so called security as possibly becoming violent...yeah the 72 year old guy with cancer, COPD and ostero-arthritis poses a real security risk...i am losing faith in the constabulary at all levels...

i have noticed that many people who post things on youtube seem to find it necessary "embelish" the contents of their posts with alarming hyperbole...best!...oldest!...biggest!...etc etc etc...even the science presenters feel they need to hype their work...sooooo...in the spirit of "show biz"...

"Move along...nothing to see here...."
