I've been reading through your ...Well said Ang. I've been reading through your posts and you are saying things that need to be said. Some of the subjects you tackle are difficult to clearly think about, much less articulate. You are doing a really fine job of it. I can't even stand to watch TV news (or any TV, really) without feeling sick. It only exists to normalise insanity. It feeds upon the human instinct for social inclusion in order to do this. It is therefore SO important that as many of us as posssible have the guts to point this out. Please keep it up!

It's not like I don't kn...Sir Viva Lacres,<br /><br />It's not like I don't know how you feel, or why, at least in general terms. I'd be lying if I said I'd never felt exactly like that from time to time. The trouble is the feeling goes away. Someone always does something without explanation or reward that takes my breath away and reminds me why life even matters. <br /> <br />There's no denying there's an over abundance of ignorance and base thinking around here, but there's nothing new about that. There's also no denying that I used to be one of those people so I can't congratulate myself too much, nor can I decide everyone else is hopeless. Some are, some aren't. I believe you've hit on a serious truth though, in that it seems to take a direct personal catastrophe that you damn near don't survive to finally get our attention, clear the stupidity and arrogance from our eyes and hearts and learn what matters and what doesn't plus get a hefty dose of humility to go along with it.<br /><br />We're living in la-la land. There's enough blame to go around. Pearls before swine. Some people never have a chance, never. I have considered your request but I can't do it. It's not that I have any delusions about changing even one person, much less the world. When I first started writing this blog I never expected anyone to read it and I also didn't know at the time how good it would be for me. Which is what it really boils down to. I need to write. I wanted to write a book when I was six, before I even knew how to write. This blog has allowed me to pull the most I can out of myself toward developing my ability to say what I want to say as well as learn how to figure out what I want to say. It's a gift to me to be able to put things out there and find out that the things that I care about are things that other people care about too. That's been huge for my sanity. But even if I was the last person on earth who feels like I do, I would still write about it, just because I really feel it needs to be said, just for the record, because no one is saying these things from official platforms. I am registering the fact that there is at least one person who does not agree with the evil clown people and can explain why. It needs to be said, just for my own sake.<br /><br />I do hear from people who say something I've written turned on the light for them or someone they love, and when I hear that you have to know it's amazing. It's scary to just come all the way out and be human anymore. It's scary to be really real and talk about feelings and principles and philosophy and morality and meaning in a world that has been trained to see no value in those things and worse, to laugh at them and despise them and deny their validity. I have found that when I do these things, people are moved. These things move people like they move me. How can I walk away from that when I live in the crotch of Silicon Valley and can never expect to see a day when being human counts for anything? How can I leave behind the only proof I have that people are as real as I am when every day it gets so much worse out here that the experience of living offends me to my core? And where else can I just be exactly who I am without fear of the real punishments that come with doing that in the "real" world? <br /><br />If I am aiding and abetting people who need a good catastrophe then I am guilty as charged, but then I don't think I have that kind of power in this world. All I am doing is staking out my piece of the earth, where I am standing, from which I refuse to move, no matter who likes it or who doesn't, because darn it, I get to. I get to exist. I know plenty of people would prefer that me and everyone like me would just keel over so they could finally turn the planet into a depraved ball of shit, but too bad for them. We're here and I am dedicated to being the pebble in their sneakers to my last dying breath. Just because it sounds like fun and I don't have anything better to do. Seriously. What matters more than that?<br /><br />Big hug.<br /><br />AngAnghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02385030071978985956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35215770.post-29359652587447878152009-06-26T11:57:32.342-07:002009-06-26T11:57:32.342-07:00Ang,
Great post.Right on.
The governor in question...Ang,<br />Great post.Right on.<br />The governor in question was, if anything, more human and understandable than the pathetic losers who have their affairs, then deny them, then admit them but minimize them and lie about their feelings (it was just a fling, etc.).<br /><br />Your main point, though, about the utter triviality of the affair is well said. Many many issues are a hundred times as important. I would go even further, and say that the governor simply proves that something is wrong with the institution of marriage, unless one can truly believe that 70% of men and 50% of women (rough percentages on affairs) are really evil. Perhaps it's the straitjacket of modern culture that is the cruel prison? <br /><br />See the recent article in the Atlantic Monthly, "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off." <br /><br />While Bernanke perjures himself in front of Congress, the circus continues.Jacob Gitteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10559764359800682222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35215770.post-4827206022548852992009-06-26T11:27:32.417-07:002009-06-26T11:27:32.417-07:00Governor Who?

I heard about his VST (VERY Serious Transgression, yeah, right, PUHLEEESE) but then we hit the daily double, wherein both Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett died, and suddenly all the foolish vitriol about Gov. Whomever and his wandering wee-wee passed into ancient history, or as it is otherwise known, yesterday's news, for which the wayward Governor is most thankful. One must normally attend a circus to witness this degree of clownery.

The media is absolutely disgusting...Right on Angie. The media is absolutely disgusting. The job they were hire do to is now being done by others like you (for no pay). <br /><br />It is dead obvious that they are fornicating with corporate America who has manage to put ever single American on a drip-feed of warped "values" and twisted morality.<br /><br />But you let "us" off the hook too easily. This is <i>our fault</i> too. We let these bottom feeding scum suckers toss this useless shit into our faces each and every day, and then gobble it up like manna from heaven.<br /><br />Other then engaging in the catharsis of the soul, I've finally realized that we are absolutely and utterly wasting our time. We should not even be here anymore (online). We should abandon these airwaves utterly.<br /><br />That's why I'm now gone and off the air. We can rant, plead, beg, cajole, reject, refuse, reveal and state mountain chains of facts and evidence -- and it does not make a goddamned bit of difference. And I know why now, through and through.<br /><br />We NEED to let Americants get their fill, become so bloated and satiated with mindless SHIT and useless CRAP that they finally explode.<br /><br />But it won't be the brainwashed and programmed, but the disgusted and the disposed that do this and those that have abandoned these futile efforts to awaken the fatted sheep, the rest will be too damned busy eating their daily dose of pig slop from the hands of their masters.<br /><br />We are now guilty in our own way of preventing what desperately needs to happen. A seething horde of angry, disgusted and very pissed of people is critically necessary.<br /><br />I love your writing, but I'm going to ask you to stop. You must starve the people now from truth. You must let them roll in the pigshit of the lies and deceptions you're counteracting. If they are going to ever truly awaken (beyond the infotainment we provided them), it is going to have to happen at a much more fundamental level then what this forum could ever provide.<br /><br />Only the hungry will understand.<br /><br />The 'leaders' in these efforts need to abandon them. This is a trial by fire and only the strong and truly committed will survive. They are also the only ones who can act decisively, and that is the entire point. We are in their way now, slowing them down by our own drip-feed and addiction.<br /><br />The entire blogsphere needs to collapse. I am dead serious. Abandon the airwaves to the media hype and hucksters entirely. Our efforts now belong elsewhere (we're not going to stop, just change gears). It's time to face up (get real) to the challenge ahead, and we can NEVER do this while pecking away at a keyboard or getting our daily fix from our bookmarks.<br /><br />You are truly gifted and offer a wonderful insight, but I'm asking you and every other blogger to abandon these efforts. <i>Starve the people now</i>. If you want revolution or collapse or real change, this is exactly what it is going to take.<br /><br />We both know (as does any truly honest person), that we are not changing our world with just our words. All of our efforts online are for nought. Therefore, a dearth in the land is now called for.<br /><br />Drought makes the people yearn for rain. When they finally realize that they alone <i>are</i> the rain, then the rains will come, and the change we both seek will happen. ~Survival Acres~Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35215770.post-66092990416067473512009-06-26T04:47:37.177-07:002009-06-26T04:47:37.177-07:00neptune 1,

If this guy used to be on the inside, and now he's not, he's been served up for a sacrifice just like Elliot Spitzer was. Considering they'll never live these "confessions" down, one can only speculate what the 'or else' was. It had to be worse than these humiliating, career destroying spectacles. <br /><br />There's no point in bringing up these guys sex lives, so we know the real story is being buried and this trashy stuff is used as a decoy. Allowing the press to engage in the pointless demoralization of people is to abet the worst people in the world and help them pull off their crimes. That's just common sense and obvious.<br /><br />And yes Edo, it is great to let it out. Maybe not very attractive, but definitely good.<br /><br />AngAnghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02385030071978985956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35215770.post-38821538283599918082009-06-26T04:30:01.514-07:002009-06-26T04:30:01.514-07:00If I am not mistaken wasn't this guy one of th...If I am not mistaken wasn't this guy one of the biggest hounds going after Bill Clinton for his "indiscretion" with Monica?
