I have that book, …somewhere.

1. New Orleans, Superdome, Katrina. - What went on in there, really. And within a mere day or two; truly, we are just animals wearing clothes.

2. Being a part of my own Government’s effort to deploy it’s “flagship climate program” worth a billion+ $. Realising, it’s just tax money that’s getting fed upon by industry, with very little actual effect. Also, seeing the climate data and its undeniability in regards to imminent collapse (5-7 y) combined with our utter lack of action.

A few others as well, but two come to mind quickly.

I am soured on humans. I have no faith in our species anymore.

AKA “a fart walk”

Literally, watching movie as I read this.

Kid’s about to get hit by Roy’s truck….

Stupid fucking kids.

This has been bullshit for 20 years, what changed all of a sudden?

Hi! Canada here, e we export s fair bit of quality bud, Bud ;)

Basically it says to me “Fuck your for being/showing/reminding me that you are smarter/more informed/more reasoned/more compassionate than me!”

Same applies to “woke”.

It’s how it’s said that speaks volumes.

If, and it’s a big IF, the electronic voting system software is legit.

So easy to do. Or, used to be.

With the soundtrack of Caravan of Fools, by John Prine.

Bring Him Home!

Literally? Buy some heroin.

Aftermath might not be so good though.

Longer than you think! Chilled me.

Headlines: “Trump elected President”.

Short answer?

Because people always choose what’s easy.

Buying into hatred, fear, mistrust and rhetoric is, in the end, just easier than working out the progressive thought processes to arrive at what is deemed to be societally more beneficial.

Combine that with the serotonin rush that comes with the outrage culture and its enablers…

…and there you go.

We are just stupid apes in the end.

Meanwhile, in Canada:

Repeated security audits at major airports such as YYZ show repeated and regular occurrences of airside staff not getting screened for weeks at a time.

Essentially, many airside staff don’t get screened much, but passengers get the Theatre. Recommendations from repeated audits to change this did nothing.

CBC has a whole piece on it. Once post 911, and again years later (nothing changed).

So many holes in airport security, it’s ridiculous when compared to the passengers’ routine denigrations.

Meh, Elton John did this with an oven manual…. On the spot.

In Canada, cannabis is legal and people use it as real medicine.

What did that guy on TV say? “Can I NOT have to ask for my medicine by requesting the “Pink Barbie Kush”.”

Not food, but same principle.

Commando 100%

Yes. 100% overused.

I applied in Canada to a Law Enforcement program with a past-secondary institution.

I was told by a VERY senior member of the force (family friend) that I was simply too smart for the rank and file and was consequently turned down. He said “…they don’t want people who will think for themselves and question their orders. The whole point is to have force who will follow the rules without question. You don’t fit that mold”. The “rules” in this case is really just the police culture, and status quo.

The man who told me this, rose to Police Chief of a Major Canadian city from uniformed officer. Retired now.

I believe him.

Dumb soldiers who apply force when told. That’s what they want, …mostly.
