Trump proved all those psychiatrists right. He is now officially crazier than a “sh#t house rat.” An executive order under consideration by Trump to take completely over the US Military and rid it of all those who will not question Trump’s authority and follow his unlawful orders. Now in order to hold a military job you will swear an oath not to the United States but Trump all those that don’t will be retired by Trump’s executive order. The order is to remove any military officer who believes in the American principal of equality of men. Trump and the Christian Nationalists believe that some Americans are just plain inferior by birth they are on a mission to weed the “Woke” out of the military meaning any military officer who believes in the American principal of equality. Some Americans our just plain inferior to other, just ask Elon Musk. Musk believes he is so superior to other that only he and other high T men should be able to vote in America elections others could serve in purely advisory roles.
We all have long known that Trump is crazier than a “crazier sh*t house rat” but that the big problem is He is surrounding himself by those that are far crazier than he is. Look who High T himself not only voted for but spent billions to get Trump elected. Trump is just crazy as he was when he incited the Jan 6 insurrection now, he is hell bent on revenge for anyone that had the very gal to enforce the laws of the United States against a rich man. The Christian Nationalists are going to take us back to bible version of slavery to a make-believe hero who is less believable than Batman.
The step for dictator is to make sure the military is loyal to him not the country they serve. This is only the first step of many. Elections to indeed have consequences. WV voted for Trump by 70% and it is one of the most under educated states in the nation that pattern was followed across the United States. The inmates are now soon to run the asylum, and I do indeed mean those who should be confined in a mental institution.
Has anyone noticed how much more dishonesty has taken place in America since Trump was first elected? I am not talking about the kid up the street stealing the change out of your car, I am talking about the biggest corporations in America and the subscription racket. Amazon had to be told to stopping hiding the cancel button on their internet sight to keep people from canceling their subscription to Prime. The CEO said that Prime was such a good deal no one would ever want to cancel it.
My first experience with subscription fraud was at a bookstore. The clerk kept pushing magazine subscriptions every time I visited the store. I had taken the free magazine offer a couple of times but no magazines, but they never came. I accepted the offer one more time. This time the magazines came when I went cancel the subscriptions, I encountered a phone tree that would not let you cancel the subscriptions. You could sign up for another deal that would not cost much more but you could never cancel the subscription. So, I had to cancel my bank card to stop the scam. The reason the scam did not work the first two times was I had paid with a gift-0cards they could not charge. I encountered the same problem with Class M***they refuse to take to different perfectly good gift-cards. Only after several tries did the finally accepted one of the cards after first asking for a regular credit card. I didn’t understand that it was another likely subscription scam.
Since then, I have encountered many big corporations that have adopted that method of scamming Americans out of their hard-earned dollars. I bought a $1500 exercise bike that came with a year’s free exercise videos. Good enough after a year I tried to cut it down from paying for five people. I wanted to only pay for one and they offered that option. Ater the free year was over I tried to make it a subscription for just one person which was much cheaper it was not possible. I was the only person that ever used that bike. When I got their phone tree I was asked for my phone number. When I gave the phone tree my number it said no one with that phone number had an account with them and then the phone tree hung up. Three years later and I am still paying for five people. The bike is worthless without the exercise videos.
Now congress has said all in six months all companies using the subscription must make it as easy to cancel it as it is to sign up for the subscription. What do you want to bet that will be the very first “regulation” Trump cancels? After all rich people stealing from poor people should never be illegal.
Call it the Trump effect.
When people describe a psychopath the one feature, they always describe is dead eyes. Since so many different people use the same exact description. I have never encountered someone with dead eyes and never noticed it in famous serial killers like Ted Bundy but today I saw a man that I would describe as having dead eyes. Matt Getz meets that description to a T. Trump wants to make him the highest law enforcement officer in the government. Getz is disliked by republicans and democrats alike.
Getz has recently resigned his position in the House that just happened as the House ethics committee finished up an investigating of Getz for ethic violations. He may not have resigned because of the results of the ethics violation but House members usually stay in their position until they are confirmed. He was just reelected and resigned before his previous term ended. Getz was also investigated for sex trafficking of underage girls. Imagine the tales Trump and Gets could tell each other about their pursuit of underage girls. We are now seeing Trump’s sequel to Jan 6. It is what you get when you elect a mega liar who told 30,000 documented lies in his first term. Can you ever trust someone who lies to you?
The good news today is that RFK Jr told him he has discovered a dead worm in his brain. The bad news was it likely died of over consumption. The worse news is that Trump appointed someone with half a brain. It goes to show you that even a worm would not eat Trump’s brain but in spite of that Trump’s brain is far worse for appointing him.
The Trump administration is like that old science fiction movie the “Body Snatchers” there is some speculation by the FBI that the worm may have been control RFK as was trying to be president. People who eat bad meat get worms that sometimes migrate to their brain and Trump is going to be in charge of the nation’s health. I demand that Trump’s brain be checked for worms or other foreign objects before he gets to be president as he has dined with RFK
Meanwhile back at the ranch the world’s smartest man and his side kick have found how to cut the federal budget and save billions. They found a glitch in the federal budget that some programs are not authorized by congress but are still being funded they believe they can stop funding those programs immediately. The first program will save the country $120 billion. What’s the program the veterans benefit programs. So much for high T males. I would not say I told you so but I just can’t help it. Trump won’t take office for another two months and he has already made a huge mess. Can you say senile old geezer?
The good news today is that Trump’s doctor did not find any worms in Trump’s head. The bad news was the that the blood vessels in Trump’s heads were too small because of his advanced atherosclerosis for the poor worms to get there.
One of the most searched for topics on the web today is how can I change my vote? Sorry it is too late now the damage is already done.
When it comes to brain worms, physical brain worms are rare in America, but we are exposed to thousands of brain worms every day, they do not have a physical body, but they can do far more damage. A physical worm endangers an individual. In WWII Germany the earworms whispered that Jews were bad people who killed children and drank their blood. Sound familiar? It should the republicans are spreading the exact same lies today they just the name of their victims. Earworm that enters the body through your ear can still kill millions. Hitler was responsible for killing of six million people. Ear worms do not need to reproduce in convention way they spread like a virus through whole countries.
Each morning when I shower, I tend to sing. Those are ear worms. Most of those tunes I have not heard in decades, but they lie dormant in my mind. In my lifetime I must have heard about a million tunes (an ear worm) but some are much more likely to survive. Earworms changed all of our lives, when Madison Av learned how to make ear worms much more effective. Now Madison is trying to convince women that much more of their body stinks then they knew, and they need to ware whole body deodorant. If there is one thing a woman does not want it is a strange smelling anything other than her underarms. This will make the manufacturer of whole-body deodorant rich behind their wildest dream. Fear motivates and women are being terrified to buy this new product. While Madison Ave manufactures billions of earworms each year it is politicians that manufacture the most-deadly ear worms. They can now kill millions in seconds. They are the envy of every brain worm.
The correct term for earworms is Memes but the ear worm term is more descriptive. We perceive the world through our five senses. Our ancestors did not have to deal with a huge amount of data. When they watched one of their fellow men being mauled by a bear there was no doubt that bears were dangerous and to be avoided at all costs. If someone came along an told them bears were not dangerous, they would reject that earworm out of hand.
We construct our world through earworms. They are small fragments of information that our brain uses to construct our view of the world. Our brain uses billions of earworms to construct opinions and tens of thousands of opinions are combined to construct our political philosophies. Our ancestors had no problem spotting false earworms, but we live in a much more complex society and our experience of the world in many cases is not firsthand like our ancestors' false earworms are constantly introduced into our world.
How then can we determine which earworms are false and which are not? We develop a filter. As we grow up, we know that it would be impossible for Santa to deliver all those gifts overnight. But filters are dependent on philosophies and will filter out true earworms. People are dependent on being consistent if they have already adopted false earworms, they will filter other earworms that are true. Most people are faithful followers of the PLR, Path of Least Resistance. Imagine a New Yorker lost in WV who stops to ask an old farmers which way to New York? The old farmers points him toward California and has a good laugh with friends. To find whether an earworm is true takes work to verify whether the information is true or false, but most people today find it easier to let someone else do their thinking for them. Filters are also prejudice and obscure the truth like the New Yorker believing that the farmer’s lies were true. The consequences can be tragic. If we want to make it a better world it does indeed start with the man in the mirror and not accepting every lie as true.
That radical right wing, bible thumping, zealot from Oklahoma was interviewed on CNN today. This is the idiot, who is the Attorney General of Oklahoma who believes he can brainwash every student with the bible. He truly believes that his mission in life is to brainwash every student. He is a cult zealot.
They say you can find common ground with anyone and that was true today. I would have to agree with him when he says “we are pushing a left-wing agenda.” That left-wing agenda we are pushing is the “Constitution of the United States.” The Constitution was one of the most far-left documents ever written and it remains that way today. The right-wing thinkers of that day fought and died for the British.
Did you ever notice that just a few years ago the right carried around the Constitution and sighted every time they got the chance? Notice now how the Attorney General of Oklahoma talks today. “President wants radically leftism out of our schools, wants our kids our kids to be patriotic school choice wants parents back in charge.” Notice there was not one word about the Constitution. It was all about what Trum wants.
The attorney general of Oklahoma wants bible in all classrooms and that purely fictional cult book of violence, murder, rape and human sacrifice taught as true. In movies there are three categories of true stories, true story, based on actual facts, based on a true story, self and narratives in the first they stick to the facts, the second they write a similar story and take many liberties with the truth. The third is totally based on someone’s memories. Every bible scholar will admit that the bible was passed down verbally for hundreds of years and only written down afterwards. It composed of various stories passed down verbally there is no way it can even be too close to true but then the black hand of magically thinking comes into play. It is correct because a grandfatherly creature ghost wrote the fantastic tale. Recent checks of the bible story have proven it beyond any doubt that even the Christmas story was based on a mistranslation. Mary was not a virgin the word translates to “young girl.” One thing Christians don’t want to ever deal with is facts.
Majorie Taylor Green called for the governors of blue states to be charged with treason if they did not go along with Trump’s agenda. So much for freedom. I expected Trump and his Trump thugs to do away with freedom just not this soon. This is MTG’s concept of freedom a complete and total dictatorship when even in the longtime democratic states would be mandated to follow Trump’s agenda. The Republican party was extremely long on state-rights and hated the federal government. It says it right here in their pocket constitution. MTG renewed her call for the United States to be dissolved into red and blue states.
The Trump thugs are celebrating Trump’s huge mandate, but Trump’s has one of the smallest mandates in the history of America. Trump only won by 1.4% of the popular vote. When compared to history Trump’s mandate ranks 44 out of fifty, Trump’s mandate in his first term was a negative 2.4%, in other words even though Hillary lost the electoral college but won the popular vote, she had the mandate of 2.4%. Trump has no mandate the country is more deeply divided than ever. When the smoke and mirrors clear, the Wizard of OZ stands naked and afraid. The electoral college distorts any mandate because most states are winner take all. This robs the population who voted for Harris of any vote. Trump’s mandate is a total illusion
I well remember how I felt the morning after the election. I don’t visit that unpleasant memory. Often. On a bright September morning I stopped by my wife’s work to tell her I was taking my mistress and going to Eldora, and I would be back Monday morning. My wife never liked any of my mistresses and understood if she made me choose, she would lose. My mother has had told my wife early on about my mistress. She said you have to understand his mistress has four tires and runs a 135 mph.
The trip was uneventful, but Eldora was much further away than I estimated I rolled in several hours late and missed the first round of qualifying was over. I would have one chance to get in one of six qualifying races. Eldora is now owned now by Tony Stewart, of NASCAR fame. I was the last car in line. The car in front made his run. I fired that alcohol swilling beast up and it roared to life. The gate swung open up and the unthinkable happened it stumbled and died and would not start. The qualifying closed and they allowed me to get across the track and purchase some alcohol. Yeah, that is how I felt.
I had focused my entire life on racing, my education, the jobs I held. When I was six A buddy, and I swore and oath that we would race cars and never marry. He went to navy and to this day I still run into some old girl friends who remind me that I said I would never get married. My girlfriend at the time wert with me to look at a race car I was consider buying. She said I don’t understand you can afford buy racecar, but we can’t afford to get married. I lost that argument. You can’t argue with a woman. The World 100 is the biggest Late model dirt track race in the world there were usually around 500 cars from all over the country and only 24 make the race. I was nearing 50 and the end of my life dream.
Yeah, it felt like that.
I am running a little late tonight because I was running a race in South Point, Ohio tonight. The racecars are long gone by more than 20 years, and they have been replaced by a pair of racing flats. The evening came in cold, dark, wet and snowing. I was late because I was looking for my winter gear. To run this race, you need something similar to a miner’s light. It will never replace the racecar, but I can still get my competitive fix.
The worst thing about racing cars is that you can buy a race. The old saying is that “you can beat cubic inches, but you can’t beat cubic dollars.” One local race team had a million dollars in sponsorship for a two-car team. My sponsor provided me with a few gallons of alcohol. Racing changed from when I had first started. When I started, the race was between local mechanics. Everybody built their own car and motor. I sold my first two cars to spend time with my daughter. When she left home I sold my rental property and bought my first professionally built car and I built one of a motor. The car was state of the art, 10 years ago. When I looked around the pits there were several million-dollar operations, they were the rule instead the of the exception. They had semitrucks with two cars, one built for short tracks another for long tracks. They had professionally built motors with spares. They cost $35,000 each. I was parked between them with my 13-year-old van and small trailer. The total of my operation, $13,000. Finally, I understood racing was no longer about racing it was about how much money you had. If you knew how much money they had you knew who was going to win.
I never won a single car race. But in running the rich have no advantage. A pair of racing flats is it. I have a wall full of trophies now and I have won an internation race that pulls from 40 states and six foreign countries. I have won it the last 5 years in a row. You ask how could man in his seventies win so many races? Simple I was the only one in my age group. I was the only man in my age group who could make it over Black-Berry- Mountain. Every time I tie on my shoes, I know I have a chance to stand on the podium.
For the last 10 years I have told myself I should write a book. There were only two things that were stopping me from being a famous author, talent and subject. I have read over 100,000 books. If Ai can do it so, could I. In our society the most successful story is the heroes’ story Joseph Campble’s showed us that if the bible is distilled down, it was a heroes’ story as were other religions. The hero's story is marked by the hero's journey where the hero overcomes great obstacles to complete the journey whether it’s Babe Ruth or Dale Earnhart all that needs be done is change a few details and names. Most of us will never run into a burning building to rescue a small child or win the Indianapolis 500. About 98% of movies are variations of the hero’s stories.
What about of the rest of us? We demand equality in movies for the 98% who never had one based on our lives. Going to work every day and supporting your family will never be sexy but what if on your way to work you were attacked abominable snowman and overcame attack by big green aliens. That sound familiar. I swear something similar happened to me when I was six, I was attacked by a red head. I ran as fast as the wind, but she was faster. She downed me and sat astride me. Just then my mother came out, she looked at her and she looked at me and began screaming for the red head to get off of me. I knew I had broken a taboo but which one? The rest of the adults snickered and smiled and talked among themselves. The red head is now dead she was one of the last victims of TB before it was bought under control. I took her out once she was one of my sister’s friends. I finally understood what caused all the fuss. She had the skill set of a porn star we were in perfect alignment, but we never got a chance to try it without our clothes. After seventy years I can still see mom’s face I have not asked my mom whether she still remembers.
