i have not learned my lesson

I seem to need to return to find a true original, or a person of real taste, or evidence of greater consciousness, or something. It's not enjoyable! It's worse than... no, no, no, it's not worse than the fake Zennies and "poets" of blogistan... I so needn't exagerate! It's as bad as all that.

So I've resurrected evidence of my irk from last month here, and may be adding to it while in the midst of rechecking for whatever the heck it is I keep looking for. I really think I'm wanting to stumble over some profound insight somewhere in the worldwide cobwebs.

The trick to good muffins is stirring the batter just barely enough to get everything blended.

Strawberry Muffins

1/4 cup canola oil
1/2 cup milk
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup chopped strawberries

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Prepare an 8 cup muffin tin, or use paper liners.

In a small bowl, combine oil, milk, egg and vanilla. Beat lightly. In a large bowl, mix flour, salt, baking powder, cinnamon and sugar. Toss in chopped strawberries and stir to coat with flour. Pour in milk mixture and stir together only to moisten.

Don't over-mix.

Fill muffin cups. Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 25 minutes, or until the tops bounce back from the touch. Cool 10 minutes and remove from pans.

Another woman's husband asked her what she was doing with so many butterflies. She didn't know, but aren't they cute? She took about 700 pictures of them, from every conceivable angle, and posted them all on her blog.

She cut up a DICTIONARY toward this end.

There is a definite protocol to this. You may post bright colors if you have small children. If you're a grandmother, everything in your life is a variation on white. Lavender sprigs allowed. If you live in the country you can have piles of gewgaws in any color scheme or none, but you cannot leave out bits of straw and lots of shots of you and your posse at the flea market. You call Size 14 women "skinny".

A terrifying number of them have the identical template, and an only slightly less frightening number of them have music blaring at you shortly after you've clicked in, but every last one of them has at least one instance of this and it hurts me to see so many women with nary an original thought in their heads laboring away to rejoice in this stuff. Maybe you begin to catch why I was never in the kitchen talking babies and shopping at dinner parties, but out in the living room talking about everything in the cosmos with their husbands.

But, once in a while, you run across someone with something truly amazing to impart... well.... That's not fair. Each has something, but mostly it's interchangeable. I'm nearly expert by now.... Anyway, I knit like this guy does, so I don't.

Just hopeless.

A great many of these women try hard to make their houses look like barns. I want to make a barn my house.

.

Mister North popped in recently to taunt me about my barn loft with bathtub up in the cold climes of Canada, knowing full-well my desperation, and wishing, I suppose, as boyz do, to pull my pigtails in class. Maybe it's a search for a feasible alternative driving me. Who can tell?

Seleta says "faith and family are most important" while enjoying her "coastal beach home"... and, except for the unique location away from the welter of inland beach homes, that's pretty much the story across the board. I'm gonna go out on a limb here to say I'm pretty much convinced she means the Redneck Riviera and am hoping her blog isn't the only clean and healthy thing left in her life... but I really have to just hope it because I sure don't see any mention of it.

I have been wrong all along. The white fanaticism has spread to parents of very short people. I also found a tumblr page by a young man who is heavily into sex, anything made by Apple, surfing, the word "fuck" and WHITE interiors. He, uhm, had many images of more hundred-dollar bills than anyone has lying around like that, and almost never veered from Malibu.

<— I found this image at a number of design blogs... in white. I changed that part. Do you suppose they were giving themselves pep talks? Being ironic? Genuinely feeling it? Pleased by the name? Wearing it like a designer shirt? Or carrying it like an iPhone? Or is it just that we don't have the little snippets on paper anymore to tape to a mirror?

The settlement agreement — opposed by some [?] environmentalists — is intended to resolve years of litigation that have shielded wolves in the Northern Rockies from public hunting, even as the predator's population has sharply expanded.

"For too long, wolf management [TALISMANIC SPEECH ALERT] in this country has been caught up in controversy and litigation instead of rooted in science, where it belongs. This proposed settlement provides a path forward," said Deputy Interior Secretary David Hayes.

Get me to the wilderness please.

I try very hard to hang with the notion that no one, not even the space lizards, needs killing in order to straighten things out, being as obtusely against killing and harming as I have been for my entire life, and well before taking up with the ancients, but enough is too much already. The POINT is to completely and permanently disempower sociopaths. What do you imagine can accomplish that?

The whole hope of Americans finally rising up looks to maybe be trying to kick in. I'm not gonna get het-up about it... yet... but I find myself really bugged about the supplicant head space of the protests out there. Everybody on both sides is trying to retain the government's status on the hierarchy. How idiotic is that? People can say "of, by and for The People" till they're blue in the face, but that has NO effect on reality. The reality is: This is NO way of, by and for The People, in the execution by government OR in the deference to it by protestors. Maybe you should look at it from the "demonstration" angle. What you are doing is DEMONSTRATING your displeasure, ASSERTING your right to dictate to the government its imperatives. As it is, government takes its orders from a coterie of oligarchs, tells you what its mandate is, ignores even your most vivid displays of disagreement, and you continually end up following THEIR rules and not OURS. They are NOT going to permit you to be effective. You have to take their ability to dictate away from them.

ARE they going to just decide to give you back your power because you get noisy and underfoot? Or are they going to do something to placate that out of their hair and then continue as they have been all along? LOOK.

No. No. Really. What the hell is the sense in posting about the feds thwarting their own terrorist plots, over and over and over again? It's not STOPPING it! Nobody's DOING anything about it.

You're not still making up track lists for the Duped Muslims... ARE you? This has been done and again so many times that bringing it up really IS just frickin' GOSSIPING by now.

So is the long one. Please. I think they blew up the Gulf of Mexico purely to test their powers of hypnosis. Can we get millions to stay wriggling uncomfortably in a toxic environment and keep everyone ignoring their plight? Can we still sell seafood that's poison to people? If not, why not? Who are the ones smart enough to steer clear despite our mesmerism? What works then? More, better, faster, harder mesmerism, or a massive mislabeling campaign?

In addition to this, I want to remind you to watch the video on the Wikileaks page if you haven't already. I mean, when does it come over us that the casuistry being bullhorned far and wide is outright unacceptable and needs must cease instanter? It's been clear to me for a long time. Surely it at least was clear to most of us at one time, if only in theory, and I'd really like to know WHEN do we get ON the subject around here? How much torture and slaughter and agonizing death and deformity and displacement and starvation and toxification does one put up with before their brain bursts from the wholly insufficient explanations for this stuff?

I have to stress and stress and stress, and I really want you to take my point, that this is NOT theater, not the movies, not television, not a sitcom or a drama. This is REAL. So WHY are you treating it as though it were some form of art you are only meant to critique and then go about your regular business and enthusiasms?

When I say so often "no, really" and "this means you" or some expression of my certainty that you're nuts, do you think I'm just being colorful? Does it EVER occur to you that I'm pointing directly at something ACTUAL, something VITAL to your physical, mental, emotional, spiritual health?

WELL, DOES IT?

.

UPDATE:

I felt a Funeral, in my Brain,
And Mourners to and fro
Kept treading—treading—till it seemed
That Sense was breaking through—

And when they all were seated,
A Service, like a Drum—
Kept beating—beating—till I thought
My Mind was going numb—

And then I heard them lift a Box
And creak across my Soul
With those same Boots of Lead, again,
Then Space—began to toll,

As all the Heavens were a Bell,
And Being, but an Ear,
And I, and Silence, some strange Race
Wrecked, solitary, here—

And then a Plank in Reason, broke,
And I dropped down, and down—
And hit a World, at every plunge,
And Finished knowing—then—

—Emily Dickinson

No. Really. This is perfect. They're so far down the propaganda rabbit hole, black ops addled, plausible deniability bouncing off their office walls, nobody knows what to say anymore... and, seriously now, why should they even care? The more this stuff just floats on past us the more assured of their success they become. That means they stop being quite so careful to be incremental about it.

Each day brings further proof of our complete docility.

I know what yer thinkin' and I ain't gonna go through the whole litany every fiery leftist and then on down through even the tepidly lefter righties who pass for "progressives" to those fringe rightists with that curious penchant for big long blasts of truth. It's useless. You treat it all like television. You have been turned into a spectator. It's not real. When you try to remind yourself that it is real it's just upsetting, not gonna get you up from behind your desk and out the door no matter what epithets your boss is screaming in your wake. Nope. No matter how hard you try, it can't be that real.

This is one area where I really do think we are exceptional. I don't think there's another population on earth that remains this placid in the face of this much. Millions of people are in the streets in France because of the pensions issue. Greece keeps rioting. Iceland has scared the living snot out of every one of its officials. Everywhere. EVEN the completely squished Burmese and Tibetans have stood up, but not us, not us, man. That's for lesser mortals.

Read it!

I have been SCREAMING about this for five years, since almost immediately after getting online and encountering MoveOn and the Ben and Jerry's guy's gig. It was only confirmed the more with the passing of each day it all was IGNORED. I gave my time yonder so long in the "hope" it would free up an activist to be ACTIVE. He's active all right. Where popularity is at stake, but NOT on the plane where EFFECTIVENESS lives. Titanic efforts to convey the truth died in the oceans of the human ego's determination to mistake popularity for effectiveness.

DON'T YOU THINK THE CONTROLLERS GROK THAT ABOUT US?

Are you NUTS?

ONLY activists who cannot be charmed or bought away from their object are effective.

ONLY!

Yeah, it's hard work getting and staying popular. It's like capitalism. There has to be annual growth or the ponzi scheme collapses. People are continually singing the praises of Jon Stewart and Stephen Greatest-Living-Human Colbert, when they merely have opened their yaps at crucial places. Note, you fuckers: THEY TOO WERE IGNORED. They were not effective. They ARE not effective. They will not become effective.

If you weren't already a self-murdered slave, pointlessly terrified for life and limb, you'd've been in the streets in the hour after Colbert and Thomas put out Dubya's lights at the 2006 Correspondents Dinner. But you are, and so Dubya's masters could go on utterly unmolested by the ONLY thing they fear, the ONLY thing that stops them, the ONLY thing that modifies their behavior in any way: The Masses.

I didn't know that it's humanly possible to mistake the incandescent work of Martin and Malcolm, that even killing them could kill the blaze of truth they set lighting the skies for the benighted, forever, but everyone is acting as though they never did that, as though they are deaf, dumb and blind to it, as though pixels were pitchforks, as though noteworthiness itself cuts it, as though bloody murder isn't turning the planet red.

Yeah, well, bully... what version of this shit will be acceptable to him?

White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said Thursday that Obama is sending a newly passed bill back to Congress to be fixed because the current version has "unintended consequences on consumer protections." The bill would loosen the process for providing a notary's seal to documents and allow them to be done electronically.

Obama will not sign a bill that would allow foreclosure and other documents to be accepted among multiple states. Consumer advocates and state officials had argued the legislation would make it difficult for homeowners to challenge foreclosure documents prepared in other states.

The White House said Thursday it is sending the bill back to Congress for revisions, and that the administration would work with lawmakers on it.

O. Max Gardner, a consumer lawyer in Shelby, N.C., said the bill would have made the problems with foreclosure documents worse. That's because mortgage companies would have been able to mass-produce documents and affix a digital version of a notary's seal rather than one on paper.

"They could process more foreclosure cases with improper and invalid documents and make it more difficult for consumers to try to fight," he said.

Obama used a rare "pocket veto" — a tactic for killing a bill that can be used only when Congress is not in session. It essentially takes effect when the president fails to sign a bill within 10 days. Obama has yet to issue a traditional veto during his presidency; he has used a pocket veto once before, in December 2009, to address what amounted to a technicality on a defense spending bill.

Anybody had the mental space yet to consider how DIZZYINGLY fast this bill got spit out of the legislature and into the White House? DO YOU THINK THE CREEP IN THE OVAL OFFICE WILL DO ANYTHING BEYOND MAKING IT LOOK AS THOUGH, OH, NOW THE BANKS HAVE IT RIGHT?

You do? Are you NUTS?

torture

[click image, audio, half hour — and, yes, I've decided to call this The Arctic Nose Syndrome....]

.
The Other Scott Horton, the one I'm mad at for being a punch-pulling, cautious, wuss, discusses with Antiwar Scott Horton the JSOC/DIA prison at Gitmo, where "rough interrogation" techniques are being used right this very now, and it's torture. Put yourself through it.

You know the space lizard researchers, with whom I am trying to keep up, are CONVINCED, and they make a good case, that there are Nazis in space, in control of scalar physics technology, and they did 9/11, the Norway Spiral, the Haiti quake, hovering UFOs over major capitols, threatening to vaporize an American city—which accounts for all the bullshit from the last two administrations about terrorists going to nuke us—the works, perfidy upon perfidy. You will pardon me, if you bother to listen to this, if I begin to entertain the notion that they are right.

Obama is privatizing the space program. He's trying to privatize public housing. He has claimed the right to hold people without habeas corpus. He has claimed the right to assassinate American citizens, declare us terrorists, and have us summarily shot. He has increased the murderation of brown people yonder to an outright terrifying extent. He's given health insurance companies a bonanza beyond their wildest dreams. He has facilitated the transfer of trillions of dollars to banks and bullied any teeth out of any measures to regulate them. He has increased the use of private contractors in our acts of aggression across the globe to a staggering extent. He flicked the president of Honduras out of office. He continues to spew outright lies about Iran's nuclear activities. PSYCHEDELIC LIES. I could go on. YOU could go on.

Some might say this is how anyone is forced to handle the insolvency of a state, like the Soviets selling off all their people's assets for chump change, creating an oligarchy we called The Russian Mafia for at least a decade, until Putin came in and defanged them, but that doesn't exactly account for what he's doing to the Constitution we elected him to reclaim. That doesn't account for a putative progressive flushing Main Street down the toilet with such DAZZLING alacrity. You will recall that the Soviets pulled out of all their military engagements when they ran out of money, did not put themselves in hock to other countries for generations to come, and Obama is speeding up and smoothing out the genocidal transfer of wealth into the hands of a ridiculously few vampires, seriously fewer than we could come to call a mafia. So none of the excuses I've heard put forth, that I could dream up to put forth, to explain his behavior really covers this constellation of jaw-droppingly awesome betrayals. Whereas, capitulation to the Death Star, to Space Nazis, does.

I admit that fear of assassination does too... but that still leaves us with WHO could be SO all-powerful as to make anyone perform this avidly to decimate our country and its people? I don't see a blade of resistance to it. Do you?
.

Yes, yes, I remind myself that ANY politician rising to this level HAS to be a sociopathic personality, and it's conceivable that Brzezinski added in a little DARPA mind control pharmacopeia to his decades of mentoring, which would definitely render this sociopath incapable of consistency with his image, but, well, how far down the rabbit hole do we go here? I'm trying to pry my mind as wide open as it will go to get some sort of fix on the genesis of this greatly accelerated and enhanced governmental psychosis. I'm clear on what it is that has The People gone barking mad, but the officials? This has far outstripped anything even the most cynical among us might have felt feasible.

So it might even be that the Nazi Space Lizard camp is STILL groping for a RATIONAL explanation, and you should consider giving them at least THAT much credit. We might have to put North American Radon Poisoning on the table. Or the pole shift that is aiming to put my home precisely ON the North Pole is messing with the spin in the constituent atoms of our neurons.
