Re: bring on the spectacle

"Outrage porn."

Pretty much describes it. Well done.

Everything is porn. I knew it would come to this. We have everything and nothing (very Zen) in the explosion of tech and everything and nothing and I suspected it would come to this sooner or later or maybe later or sooner.

Re: On a Personal Note

That old little Nissan took me all across the American desert southwest 20+ years ago during the difficult time of 9/11 and beyond, and it was amazing on narrow trails. At the time I just assumed they'd keep making trucks like that but I was wrong.

On a Personal Note

I have an old Nissan truck parked
across the street and another truck
newer, bigger and ten times as good
parked in front of my door.

The old Nissan is still my truck.

Re: the ballot

We don't like it, but we're getting it stuffed down our throats.

I still have faith, but it's a little thinner.

Re: My sister, Denise, has passed

I confirm, it's hard to lose a friend. I miss my mom so much. At times it seems we have so few friends, yet possibility is always out there.

Re: They have no power

Good question. Capitalism depends on expanding markets, which is a good business plan. (Jeez I wish I'd thought of that.) Meanwhile the earth doesn't get any bigger.

Re: Let’s go shopping

As long as we've been around in the physical, there's always been some sort of economy to trade in and pay attention to. I guess we gotta decide for ourselves as to the particulars.

Re: I'm Disappointed In Us
