way past time for a nice cleansing cry

[click image]

.

I had a really good dream this "morning". I dreamed of agonizing stuff, of 86 coming back and a stultifying number of really awful floozies coming back with him, telling me in no uncertain terms that no matter what they were also in his life. It was really heavy. I just stood there as a sort of parade poured into a kaleidoscope of this action played out in front of me. At length, I pulled 86 from this crowd of awful moving into my life and told him gently but firmly that I didn't want him with me if the rest of this stuff was part of the bargain.

Immediately as I told him that the general atmosphere and attitude of everyone in this jumble turned intensely happy, intensely loving, where only a moment before it had been the very portrait of fundamentally awful.

I had so wanted this day to bloom into something sparklingly positive on that account, but, here, I think the cry is the most appropriate to our coördinates in space/time.

Re 86...

Kind of like when an old friend talked me into getting a facebook account to access his stuff.

Within 2 weeks I received an email through facebook from my ex-wife of 35 years ago.

Sheesh - that account was closed in an instant.

I had enough of her (how do you say "male floozies") back then.

Well, it was only a dream... full of symbolism... the only floozies in 86's orbit are drug-addled alcoholics in his vicinity while hardening off his liver... and, believe me, the only intimacy that involves is swapping spit on cocktail glass rims... and nowadays he doesn't ever sober up enough to fit one in for proper floozying... so the floozies were more likely representations of the constellation of modes of WASTE around the central concept of the front of great artistry and intellect "concealing" just waste... the window dressing for the absolute being sucked into a vortex of meaninglessness.

86 is the most appalling waste of talent and heart I have EVER encountered. I cannot express the transcendental WORTH he has pissed away for grave illness. So I think the whole dream was about me saying "NO" to wasting life... and that is what the buddhas found so wonderful as to reward with that marvelous lift out of kaleidoscopic awful.

All my dreams are Buddhist symbolism. I can't mention in public what this means, but it is so. It's part of why I am so upset when I can't remember my dreams. I know that when my mother or sister or aunts, uncles, cousins are in my dream, it is about dealing with relative reality, but I think when 86 is in the dream it's about the absolute. All of Zen revolves around the various modes of integration and separation of relative and absolute. So I have to think about this dream more.

I always call male floozies "fucksters" because they're not even manly enough to merit "fuckers"... but that might not work for your purposes?

Good for Kae! All the llamas I ever met were, or seemed, less amenable to coöperation than camels... who ARE amenable to it, but not very amiably amenable, darn temperamental about it. Could be just the difference in the generations raised here after the initial influx of them. I haven't been around llamas in twenty years and maybe they've become more docile about human interaction in that time... or like ALL domesticated animals... their temperaments pretty much reflect their relations with their owners. Both llama owners I've known are pretty damn crazy. Anyway, good for Kaela!

One of these days I'm going to take her up to a llama ranch outside of Marysville to see what it is all about. The folks there show there llamas so it has been a little difficult to arrange a weekend visit when they are there and we don't have something else to do.

We just happened upon the llama cart along the American River one day. The gentleman was very gracious and sat and talked with us for a long time. The llamas were well behaved, but then every animal I've seen around her morphs into a well behaved being - she has the touch!

The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they are ignorant, it's just that they know so much that isn't so.
—Ronald Reagan

Some of us who have already begun to break the silence of the night have found that the calling to speak is often a vocation of agony, but we must speak. We must speak with all the humility that is appropriate to our limited vision, but we must speak.

We're all fucked. I'm fucked. You're fucked. The whole department is fucked. It's the biggest cock-up ever. We're all completely fucked.

Anyone calling Obama a leftist, liberal, or progressive needs to have the stupid beat out of them.

As for the Taliban ... their stated grievance is the same as Gen. Washington’s in our war with the British: If you want this war to end, get out of our country.
—Pat Buchanan

Obama-era drone warfare ... in general looks like Bush-era drone warfare on steroids.
—Scott Horton

There has to be altruism in the universe.

The morons in Washington are pushing the envelope of nuclear war. The insane drive for American hegemony threatens life on earth. The American people, by accepting the lies and deceptions of “their” government, are facilitating this outcome.
—Paul Craig Roberts

I am a child of the South. Janet Napolitano tells me I need to be afraid of people who are labeled white supremacists but I was raised around white supremacists. I am not afraid of white supremacists. I am concerned about my own government. The Patriot Act did not come from the white supremacists, it came from the White House and Congress. Citizens United did not come from white supremacists, it came from the Supreme Court.
—Cynthia McKinney

No one has to "marry" anyone else politically; no one has to embrace every tenet or belief that an anti-imperialist ally might hold. You simply have to say: "All of us, regardless of our other views, believe this truth to be self-evident: dismantling the empire will bring immediate and enormous benefits to our nation and to the world."
—Chris Floyd

The power of the people on top depends on the obedience of the people below.

· One out of seven American homeowners will probably lose their homes by the end of 2010.

· Only 4.7 percent of distressed homeowners who enrolled in the modification plan have gotten any help.

· Out of Obama's $75 billion program, only $2.3 million has been spent—or 0.03 percent.

Obama's performance on the foreclosure crisis—along with unemployment, the biggest problem America faces—makes Bush's laissez faire approach to Hurricane Katrina look caring and loving in comparison. If ever there were a cause for impeachment, look no further.
—Ted Rall

As self-appointed champions of civilisation against barbarism, they fail to see that a certain barbarism is the flipside of civilisation itself, inseparable from its smooth operation. For every cathedral, a pit of bones; for every artistic masterpiece, human wretchedness and back-breaking toil.
—Terry Eagleton

commenting kaos, sidebar krap, quotes

Here at home and throughout the world people are fighting back against the forces of wealth, privilege, and militarism — some because they have no choice, others because they would choose no other course but the one that leads to peace and justice.
