Esoteric Meandering Shouting Into the Void

Dwain Northey (Gen X)

As the media is clutching their pearls over a 90 minute bad debate performance the Marmalade Menace was seen for the first time in 10 days since he lied unchallenged every time he opened his mouth during the debate.

Joe Biden has been at 18 different events in that same time frame but all we can talk is Biden’s age.

At Donald event (rally) at his golf coarse in Florida where he continued to lie about what he did in his 4 years and actually tell his sycophants the truth about 2025 project. He in his macho manner challenged President Biden to an 18 hole golf match even offering to give Joe 10 strokes. President Biden did not dignify the challenge, not because he is unable to play, but because he he is actually campaigning and still doing the job he was elected in 2020 to do, something Donald Trump would not understand. So when the Trump campaign decries that Biden is afraid to accept the golf challenge just tell them to F… off,

The History of the Middle Finger…
Well, now…,.. here’s something I never knew before, and now that I know it, I feel compelled to share with my intelligent friends in the hopes that they too, will feel blessed in having gained more knowledge. History is way more fun when you know more fun facts about it, don’t you agree?
Before the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, the French, anticipating victory over the English, proposed to cut off the middle finger of all captured English soldiers. Without the middle finger it would be impossible to draw the renowned English longbow and therefore they would be incapable of fighting in the future. This famous English longbow was made of the native English Yew tree, and the act of drawing the longbow was known as ‘plucking the yew’ (or ‘pluck yew’), Much to the bewilderment of the French, the English won a major upset and began mocking the French by waving their middle fingers at the defeated French, saying, See, we can still pluck yew!
Over the decades Americans have since changed up the words , the ‘pluck yew’ is now “f**K you” and the words often used in conjunction with the one-finger-salute! It is also because of the pheasant feathers on the arrows used with the longbow that the symbolic gesture is known as ‘giving the bird.’ And yew thought yew knew every plucking thing.

  Another question has been asked and we are hard pressed to answer. Why the ever so important overt turning of the abortion law? Well, that would mean there are more children around even though they may not be wanted or desired. Will this mean that orphanages will be opening and if these children get abused and get into trouble will it mean more detention centers. 

    Great way to ensure that a work force of underpaid and pretty much underrepresented children are around to fill those jobs that are being pushed in certain states. As they are underage and not really on anyone’s radar, abuses and mistreatment could be very much part of the program until such time that we are able to get AI to take over those jobs. 

    Would they have treatment if ill or injured? Are they to be educated or just taught to do whatever job it is some factory boss wants them to do? We feel certain that there will be no long range planning for these individuals. They may even have the same fate as the extras in a puppy mill, when we can’t use them, lose them.

    Bleak picture isn’t it? Are we to accept that the voices of these oh so wonderful people that this is being done as God’s will? As someone else asked daily, What do you think? Post a comment.

     The things that offend or cause people to do or not do something just astounds those of us that have lived long enough to know, NO ONE GIVES A SHIT ABOUT YOUR FEELINGS. Get over it. A council person is unable to function because of the Pride flag. Big deal. You were elected to function as a representative of all the people in your district, don’t blame a symbol of something you don’t agree with for your inability to do your job.

     How about the ones of us that think using the American Flag as your symbol is wrong? It is our nation’s symbol that doesn’t belong to an egotistical ass or any of his followers. Most of those people should not enjoy the protections offered by that symbol as they are all traitors to it. That is especially true of anyone that served this nation in uniform and even more true if that service involved active conflict. How do you justify following a coward and draft dodger and the guy who considers all who served as LOSERS.

    Since the beginning of the Trump campaign in 2015 our collective civility and humanity has taken a sharp decline. He demonstrated that it is okay to call people names, bully anyone and everyone, lie, cheat and steal and get away with it. All of the baser attitudes and personal discontent that some have held for years  has been not only allowed to come out, but been encouraged to come out. 

     By doing that he has created divisions in our society that show like ugly wounds from a war. Yes those feelings may have been there before but everyone, or at least most people had the decency to be civil when expressing their differences. Now it is perfectly okay to be as vulgar as you wish to be, especially on social media. The rift has been made and anger and resentment will keep it open long after the reign of Trump has ended.

    The realization is that even though a lot of people back him by showing support at rallies and the like the only ones that matter to him are the rich folks that hold the strings to the puppet. Those of you, in the trenches, so to speak, are just wasting your time if you think he cares about you.  The one person he cares about is self and no one else.

    His speeches are not about what we will do but about what I will do. The only part of you that is included in any thought is how much can he talk you out of. Money is his God and ego is his mistress. 

    Someone or some group is always the target for hate and that has been a norm for mankind for as long as anyone has ever discovered. In most of history the people of Jewish faith have been the targeted group. The problems in the middle east go on, religious troubles on the continent of Africa, political troubles in Korea and China and it won’t stop just because it should. It will require intervention, understanding and compassion to resolve these issues. The process requires the outstretched hand of welcome, not the finger or the fist, and a smile not a frown.

The power of the President now is overwhelming. Since that power is now vested in the current President, maybe he should have his DOJ remove Judge Cannon from her case in Florida and since she has refused to handle the motions put forth with equality and justice let her defend herself as to why she has chosen to do so. She should not be allowed to ever again practice law for any reason whatsoever.
By the same standard put the more corrupt members of the Supreme Court on trial for taking bribes all the way to treason. By doing that you could be putting the rest of the court on notice that failure to follow the Constitution as written will only lead to a path of career destruction.
Since the ruling is giving the President Imperial Powers the question is or should be, does that power only apply to criminal acts? If iit is across the board then we don’t need an election and Trump get prosecuted now. Members of Congress that have not upheld their oaths are removed as are justices and term limits are established for all in government. People like Mitch are gone as he has outstayed his welcome.
There has to be a side to this coin that the idiots on the court did not see and that side is the one that takes away their positions. This does not strike me as being a powers allowance for only when you do something you know is against the law. They, the court, have pretty much suspended the Constitution and that means the President has the reins in his hands.
Our current President needs to take that power and remake our government to be what it was supposed to be and once that is done lock it so that fools cannot change it no matter what. If we continue on and dip boy gets to play again that 2025 plan will be that much easier to implement with the dire consequence it will bring.
The collective of the religious right and the rich is obscene. One leg of that mix is bent on me, me , and me and the other is supposed to be about shining the light and saving souls unless, the churches have also come to be about me, me and me. It appears from the structures that are being built to pray in that they are merrily palaces to attack larger crowds to prey on.

The media seems hell bent to get Biden off the ticket and so many are asking why. Well, the big boys, (Rich, White, Guys) own the media and they are all looking for the same result which is how to make more money for number one. Put someone in office that will give generous tax breaks to us, screw the rest of the nation, just scratch our butts and we will kiss yours.
Can only imagine what the newsmen of the 60’s and 70’s would say to all this. Can anyone that remembers Walter K or go back a bit further, remembers Walter W imagine them not using the record of Trump to highlight his unacceptability as a President? I know that it has come to this condition because all the money boys are buying up and closing down all the smaller media platforms so that they can shine the light on what they want you to see and hear.
Our history proves that many are swayed by the slightest ripple of BS. The Salem Witch Trials were brought on because of an effort to punish some old lady by a couple of self indulgent teen age girls. Fear gripped the nation over episodes such as the Son of Sam and all the copy cats that followed that route. We have suffered the loss of our future in school killings and yet the means to that end, namely guns too easily acquired by those that should not have them, seems beyond our collective will to fix.
We have had a thoughtless, lawless, immoral ass in the White House once and people want to put him back in there. The reasons for such actions are beyond my comprehension as the person mentioned has no redeeming qualities that should allow him even the least consideration. His legacy so far is to have put some very unqualified people in place that will have an impact on our collective society long after he is gone. That influence so far has been negative in terms of justice and equality as well as completely counter to the Constitution.
The point for the youngest of voters is to look forward and view your world to come with no protection from authority to do as they please in all cases. No matter how much effort you put into something you will most likely end with nothing. Even if you are willing to accept that for yourself, are you ready to will that to your offspring? Middle Aged voters should look at the rights that have so far been taken from the basket and fear what will come next. For the older of us it is time to accept that some of our errors over our voting lifetime are bills that are now being paid by our children. With that knowledge it would be nice of us to stop being selfish and remember that like it or not there is a truth about life, no one gets out alive, and to not make others lives worse because of idiocy.

The Fourth of July is here and we may have our last celebration as a free nation. The corrupt individuals on the Supreme Court that were very certain when they went to their appointment interviews that no one is above the law have changed their minds and given that right to Presidents. How is this possible that we can be so certain of a fact of such a grave nature to turn it around to satisfy the wishes of a felon that is running for election.?
The truth may never be known but the fact that these people are all spineless cowards shows like a beacon on a dark night. The six justices that voted to approve this measure will hopefully be impeached and with any amount of luck sent to prison for their crimes against the Constitution.
At least two of the most knowledgeable men will hide behind their wives as the reason they have been viewed with such bad press. The truth being that they are both useless and need to be removed from the human race sooner as opposed to later.
Moving on to other thoughts on the election ahead it seems that Michele has been named as the person most likely to win over Trump by 11 points. If she decided to run I would vote for her as she seems more than capable of doing the job and she cares about our nation. Other people do as well but it seems most do not have the credentials to pull off a win in Nov and that is what we need, a win.
So many things need to happen in the coming year and a good percent of those things can at least be started if we get the win. Trump gets jailed, all members of Congress that stood with him about the big lie should be, at a minimum, removed from their positions in government and placed in cells. The 6 on the court need to be impeached and term limits as well as age limits and a code of ethics needs to be written for the court.
The Supreme Court is now scheduled to hear about online pornography and that is just beyond a reasonable thing for this court to judge. After all of the travisities of justice this court has issued they know obscene very well. Every judgment they have rendered has been obscene be it overturning 50 year old laws to granting immunity to satisfy an idiot or declaring the authority to regulate all facets of our lives by virtue of “We have Decided”.
The court is charged with upholding the Constitution not the Bible. The nation was formed as a non-secular entity and it needs to remain that way for all of our citizens to be treated equally and we know that it will not remain that way if we slide into the trap of being designated as christian, jewish, muslim or any other faith. Everyone’s faith comes with the attitude that they are the one true religion and none are the one nor is there anything about them that makes them true. Each is formed on the effort of storytelling that has passed from one to another for generations with errors and omissions being the common thread.
Just as the joke tells if they have missed the R in translation the word is really Celebrate. Oh the joy to all those that have gone through life with pent up emotions and blue balls. It is a just punishment for those that are always right.

Gravity in Canada’s Hudson Bay area is weaker than in other parts of the world.

Earth is far from the perfect “blue marble” we like to picture. In reality, our planet is filled with deep trenches, towering mountains, and centrifugal bulges that make its mass uneven across the globe — and that unequal distribution can really mess with gravity. One famous example is the Hudson Bay region in northeastern Canada, where gravity reaches some of its weakest levels in the entire world. These levels aren’t extraordinarily low — residents weigh only one-tenth of an ounce less than they would elsewhere — but it’s enough for scientists to take notice and wonder why this particular area experiences gravity differently. 

The force of gravity is calculated using mass and distance. To put it simply, the mass of the Earth, combined with our proximity to its surface, is why we feel gravity the way we do. This is also why astronauts experience lower gravity as they move farther away from the Earth’s surface. Because we experience the Hudson Bay anomaly while still on Earth, that must mean the area somehow has less mass. It turns out there are two reasons for this. The first is a process in the Earth’s mantle (found 60 to 124 miles beneath the planet’s surface) called convection, in which super-hot magma moves continuously in a circular motion, sinking and rising back up again — and pulling tectonic plates with it. One of these sinking currents occurs in the Hudson Bay region, and could account for an estimated 55% to 75% of its “missing” gravity. 

The second reason takes us back 20,000 years to the last ice age, when much of North America was covered by a nearly 2-mile-thick glacier called the Laurentide ice sheet. Its massive bulk, especially around Hudson Bay where the glacier formed huge domes, compressed rock into the Earth’s mantle and created a giant indent with less mass. Scientists have confirmed that gravity is slowly increasing in the area as the Earth rebounds (at about half-an-inch per year) from this glacial trauma, but residents of the Hudson Bay region will still experience some gravity-induced weight loss for the next 5,000 years or so.
