1st day of Spring.

I can't say I did too much. But still ...

Got an expensive bill paid. Talked to a few old friends.

I'll be taking some much-needed time off, so we'll see how much I get done in both music and blogging.

Where are all the American liberal feminists on this?

The answer is, they aren't.

Because the victim isn't white?

Because the victim isn't female?

Because the victim isn't American?

Or, maybe some combination?

Connecting the biggest lies of the last 20+ years.

One of those days.

Where everything hurts.

Something aches.

I forget something. 

So much so my back breaks.

So much I want to do.

Many things I'd like to focus on.

But only so much time.

And look and sound like a moron.

For once in life.

I achieve what I expect.

I can finally look myself in the mirror. 

And appreciate and respect.

Quote of the day - 03-18-2026.

To activists and “leftists” in the imperial core: your responsibility is not to lecture the oppressed. Your responsibility is to fight your own ruling class. Your responsibility is to expose, disrupt, and defeat imperialism at its source.

It is objectively reactionary to subject nations under attack to colonial “litmus tests.” To  demand purity from those fighting for survival, to echo the language of the empire while pretending to oppose it.

You must stand with resistance, with the defense of national sovereignty and the right of people to defend themselves from Western White colonial/capitalist imperialism. 



4 crises at once? Way to go America!

A term I don't use - one that's a telling sign of propaganda.

https://www.mintpressnews.com/corporate-media-go-all-out-to-support-the-us-israeli-war-on-iran/290713/

Another common tactic of delegitimization media use is to describe the Iranian as a “regime” (e.g., BloombergWashington PostWall Street JournalFinancial TimesCNNNBC News). The word “regime” immediately discredits a government, and cues the reader to oppose it. The phrase “Israeli regime” is virtually never used, unless in a quote from Iranian officials. 


Once again a reminder - Americans are the most propagandized people on the planet.

If you really want to understand why the US Empire is the most destructive force said planet ...

If you really want to understand why the human species is closer to violence and destruction than ever ...

If you really want to understand how bullying works ...

If you really want to understand why Americans don't rebel against their own system of oppression ...

... Look no further than operations like this.


More weekend work ahead.

No small amount either - the whole day.

Yay.

Congratulations Demolition!

Yes, yes, pro wrestling is entertainment.

Yes, it borders on propaganda.

Yes, it's all scripted. And yes, the WWE isn't nearly as entertaining as it once was back then.

And yes, these HHOF events are really nothing more than another WWE pay-per-view.

But Bill Eadie and Barry Darsow were entertaining. They were the best at what they did, and they were the best in their time in the WWF.

And it's great to see after all these decades, that the company that employed them finally recognizes what they did.

An enormous crime against Iran.

Russia and China are the only nations with the potential to balance this rogue superpower. Iran’s strategic location and vast resources make it vital to both Moscow and Beijing, which is precisely why it is in the sights of the United States and Israel.

Destroying Iran may be the immediate goal, but Russia and China are the real targets of US imperial ambition. Whether they grasp the scale of the threat is unclear, given their muted response to the assault on Iran so far.

Their failure to veto the “Board of Peace” resolution at the UN Security Council in November – allowing Trump to crown himself a would-be world monarch – is not a promising sign either.

While the United States and Israel are fighting a war of aggression and choice, Iran is in an existential battle for survival.

Iran’s future belongs to Iranians. But if their country is wrecked, or subjected to the tyranny of Washington and Tel Aviv – like so many of its neighbors – that future will be stolen from them for generations.

If this American and Israeli aggression succeeds, no country or people will have sovereignty or any control over their lives.

To all Americans - The Empire that rules you IS the global terrorist of the World.

A global terrorist and bully.

How many other entities go out and kidnap a country's leader, while killing thousands?

How many other entities go out a bomb another country, while killing thousands?

How many other entities go out and kill a country's leader?

How many other entities have over 750 military bases in other countries?

How many other entities' military has a budget that very likely exceed $1 Trillion USD this year alone?

How many other entities have nuclear warships that are in every single ocean?

How many other entities have a military that's the biggest consumer of fossil fuels?

That empire is controlled by an actually small number of people - the rich and powerful probably number somewhere around 3 million (when you consider all the billionaires, wealthy, rich, powerful, military, etc.). That works out to about 1% of the population.

And yet, you have those Americans who STILL think blue no matter who is the binary opposite to maga red, and vice versa.

Meanwhile, the country is slowly collapsing. Inflation is making everything more expensive. Homeless people live under every bridge. The vast majority of Americans cannot afford a $1000 emergency. The biggest cause of bankruptcy is being unable to pay expensive medical bills.

I think all this collapse is by design. I think the rich and powerful that control the US Empire both abroad and here, are slowly trying replace the very system put in place for them - and do so with one that allows them to control the people and resources here the same way they do so everywhere else.

Think that's psychopathic and destructive? It is - I certainly think so. And it's coming sooner than one thinks.

What will happen then?
