A resurrection: Snippets From Spaceship 🚀 Orion

 THAT is the current state of America. And WE in the rest of the world have watched it happen: ever since Barack Obama’s term ended, clearing the way for Donald Trump and the Far, Far, Far Right to emerge. Joe Biden is too inept and weak-minded to stop it. Jan. 6. That’s all you need to know. How America allowed an unelected prick like Trump to whip America’s Rampant Right into a bunch of crazed, blood-thirsty monsters. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radical_right_(United_States) The Nazis, the White Supremacists, the Ku Klux Klan, the gun lobby, any absurdly idiotic scum you can imagine, all mindless zombies 🧟‍♂️ of Trump, the worst of all. The same arseholes who creeped out from under their rock to kill that Left-leaning woman in that car a few years ago, who stormed the Capitol Jan. 6. This from that sensational publication, The New Yorker: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2022/11/14/the-rise-of-political-violence/amp Who beat security guards to death. Or who strung up black...

LGBT + Q: We hear about this all-encompassing, silly moniker all the time for a minute portion of the entire population to represent the weirdly sexually different. But what about the other 80-90% of us that are BANISH + ED — Boring, Acclimatized, Normal, Insecure but dealing with it, Sexually normal, Heterosexuals and therefore able to reproduce, Easy to be hard, and a Dying breed. What ever happened to the simple, basic attraction between a boy and a girl, a man and a woman, intended to propagate the species? I get that there are homosexual deviant freaks of nature in every animal on earth. But generally, seeing as they have no way to reproduce, they are destined to die off. The beauty thing about nature is a man AND a woman are required to make a baby. There is no natural exception to this rule. Instead, we celebrate RuPaul and other freaks of nature with TV shows: Shock TV. We let the TV sh*theads dictate what we watch, THEN WE BLINDLY WATCH IT! Are we going F’ing insane? Are we co...

  Today, I tried publishing to Farcebook a piece critical of the Right Wing, Donald Trump, and Farcebook’s obvious siding with Trump. I was within seconds of posting the piece sent a message by the Farcebook weinies saying that if I didn’t remove it within seconds, I would face suspension from their site. Which they have done several times before. My initial reaction was to tell them to go f**k themselves, but I ended up complying. https://www.politico.com/amp/news/2020/09/26/facebook-conservatives-2020-421146 So this is what democracy has come to?  A Right-wing media source like Farcebook saying to users that we don’t CARE what YOU think, this is NOT a democracy, and you can’t: —bad-mouth the Right-Wing arse who almost killed the speaker’s husband with a hammer 🔨 in San Francisco; —bad-mouth Trump for his incitement of such arse-holes to do that or start the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol or any number of other appalling things? You can’t do these things? You can’t fight back?...

The mindless weenies who control Farcebook are not arbiters, they’re senseless censors. I have been suspended several times by Farcebook for admittedly chastising mostly right-wing arses. I do not meekly back down. Neither do I swear. Farcebook is a place where debate is invariably going to occur. For Farcebook to single out one side makes it appear they are siding with the Right Wing. Most often, what happens is Farcebook DOES NOT penalize the perpetrator of the original, inflammatory comment. Instead, they go after the person who reacts to the inflammatory comment, thereby suppressing comment and promoting one side over the other. I do not apologize for my behaviour, and I realize I can at times have a hair-trigger temper. But that is OK. If it is warranted, it is warranted.

So I am once again back, sick of the crap 💩 on Farcebook. The inability to convey clear, virtually unmitigatedly free thought screams there. I have missed coherent ideas from others and presenting my own coherent thoughts to others. Not that there is necessarily a GREAT deal of exchange of intellectual/emotional thought on here, but it is peaceful, almost like a diary, an uninterrupted flow… From me to you. I will need a while to get re-familiarized with visual presentation, pictures, etc. here. Please be patient with me. A few autobiographical facts: I am 66 and am a retired journalist who has had a stroke. I can no longer drive. I have 3 kids, plus now a grandchild. I live with my son and his dog. He just finished a course and has lived here for several months with his dog, but he will move out in a few months. I have travelled to 40-45 countries, including India, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Iraq, Turkey, Greece, what used to be Yugoslavia (now Bosnia and Herzogovenia), Hungary, Bu...
