Conversations I Am Tired Of Having ~ this is the first monday morning reader of 2024. Russell Lee took the picture shown in Rupert ID, July 1942. ” Japanese-Americans eating supper in the community mess hall” ~ “You should learn from the mistakes of others, because you will not have time to make them all yourself.” Alfred E. Neuman The spell check suggestion for Neuman is Humane. ~ At the end of the day, Lake Superior State University slays once again, leaving a lasting impact on the linguistic world with the release of their 2024 Banished Words List 1. Hack 2. Impact 3. At the end of the day 4. Rizz 5. Slay 6. Iconic 7. Cringe-worthy 8. Obsessed 9. Side hustle 10. Wait for it ~ Lake Superior State University’s 2024 Banished Words List 1. Hack 2. Impact 3. At the end of the day 4. Rizz 5. Slay 6. Iconic 7. Cringe-worthy 8. Obsessed 9. Side hustle 10. Wait for it ~ @zora Joke a Syrian friend in Germany told me: -An Arab, a Turk and an Albanian are in a car. Who’s driving? -die Polizei ~ Coleman Hughes is a pro-Israel content provider. If you go to @coldxman, you have the option of paying $7.00 a month for his tweets. Jack Delano took the picture in October 1940. “Mr. Lawrence J. Brown, Aroostook potato farmer operates a small seed foundation unit in Eagle Lake, Maine. His three sons and one hired man do all the work. The little boy on the left picked fourteen barrels of potatoes before lunch.” The infant seen here is in the right side of the picture. ~ Lior Haiat 🇮🇱 @LiorHaiat “Israel rejects with disgust the blood libel spread by South Africa in its application to the International Court of Justice (ICJ). South Africa’s claim lacks both a factual and a legal basis, and constitutes a despicable and contemptuous exploitation of the Court. South Africa is cooperating with a terrorist organization that is calling for the destruction of the State of Israel. The Hamas terrorist organization – which is committing war crimes, crimes against humanity and sought to commit genocide on 7 October – is responsible for the suffering of the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip by using them as human shields and stealing humanitarian aid from them. …” I thought this was just some random whacko, until I saw “Israel Foreign Ministry and Israel ישראל 🇮🇱” at the bottom. This is an official government response! ~ Joe Pyne was an abrasive TV host. Harry Hay was a seminal figure in several “radical” communities. There is a wikipedia urban legend that Mr. Hay was a guest on “The Joe Pyne Show.” Youtube does not have a video of the show. ~ MK Gandhi was trained as a barrister, and could crank out a wordcount. His thoughts were well thought out, and much more complex than the motivational Mahatma on facebook. ~ I enjoy listening to things on the stationary bike. Shows that guarantee enjoyment are best, because turning it off mid ride is trouble. I have learned to be leery of The Writers Voice, the fiction podcast at the New Yorker. While the ones I enjoy are terrific, TWV has a high washout rate. Still, when I was preparing to go to the gym today, I took a chance on Wagner In The Desert by Greg Jackson. ~ WITD was originally published in 2014, which was a very different time from now. In the tale, four young people go to a house in Palm Springs, for a drug fueled vacation. WITD turned out to be a fun story, with enough big word snark to entertain the exercising listener. At one point, the author described himself as having the mental capacity of a rock, or something like that. I laughed loudly, and got a funny look from the yoga mat lady in the front of the room. ~ My time on the bike ended at about 24 minutes, and I paused the show. When I got back to it, I had baked in the sauna, and ate dinner. My mood had changed. While there was no doubt I would finish the story … it was only 17 more minutes … WITD was not as much fun when I got back. ~ A subplot involves meeting a moneyman named Wagner. When the players meet up with Wagner, they are assured of financing, but then they have to give the old bastard the rest of their coke, and listen to his putrid opinions. The story-teller gets turned down by the woman he is chasing, and has to listen to a world weary soliloquy. May I would have been better off to quit the story while I was having fun. ~ “10 Conversations On Racism I’m Sick Of Having With White People” was a viral post during the Bush administration. This reaction was written during the Obama administration. The pictures are from the deep state, and are better than the text. ~ calamus ~ in 1998 Crazy Owl left the property on Flat Shoals Road. At some time after that, the land was developed. One of the cul-de-sacs was Shawn Wayne Court. Last night, someone was shot dead there. ~ “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness.” is one of Oscar’s greatest hits. Unfortunately, it is not included in his wikiquotes. Google has a bunch of meme-mongers, who paste the quote on pretty pictures, without giving a source. One source says: “The cleric and writer Charles Caleb Colton appears to be the first person to have stated the saying exactly as we know and use it today, in his 1820 work “Lacon: Or, Many Things in Few Words.” Oscar was a man of letters, with most of his work published, available, and scrutinized endlessly. If he really said something, there should be a source. While Oscar may have said this to one of his boyfriends, it does not appear in his work. ~ January 6, 2024, was less eventful than the famous 0106. The high point was reading a report of an accidental homicide, in the same spot that used to host a Friday night sweat lodge ~ Sometimes I get in the mood to be a pedantic as**ole, and debunking quotes is a good excuse. dubious quotes on facebook are the gift that keeps giving ~ “Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes.” – Oscar Wilde. This quote is real. It is found in act two of VERA; OR, THE NIHILISTS. … Prince Paul. When you are as old as I am, Prince, you will understand that there are few things easier than to live badly and to die well. Czare. Easy to die well! A lesson experience cannot have taught you, whatever you may know of a bad life. Prince Paul (shrugging his shoulders). Experience, the name men give to their mistakes. I never commit any. Czare. (bitterly). No; crimes are more in your line. ~ VERA; OR, THE NIHILISTS. A DRAMA IN A PROLOGUE, AND FOUR ACTS. ~ @MichaKobs The circumstances of Gal Abdush’s death raise very serious questions indeed. The first question is the time of death because, according to countless witness accounts, no one actually escaped the NOVA site to the north after 6:00. ~ A few days ago, I wrote about how Rachel Maddow has almost nothing to say about the tragedy in Gaza. In the time since then, facebook has been telling me about new posts at “The Rachel Maddow Show.” Today, her staff continued supporting Genocide Joe, and made an ironic comment. “As House Republicans try to exploit border conditions as an election-year issue, the White House has a compelling reply: “Actions speak louder than words.” … When I try to post this comment to Facebook, the browser keeps crashing ~ Rachel Maddow Watch: “The Rachel Maddow Show” continues to ignore Gaza, and focus on the re-election of Genocide Joe. Today, there was an ironic comment on facebook. “As House Republicans try to exploit border conditions as an election-year issue, the White House has a compelling reply: “Actions speak louder than words.” ~ The Protocols of the Deputies of Netanyahu ~ every sunday night you keep the flame burning, for crappy zoom bomber people to exist, talk to jesus while keeping wicks yearning, onamodapeia until you cease and desist, there is a difference between making good trouble, and just being a useless jerk, living in a nihilist recipe bubble, is guarnateed to never work, you need fourteen lines for a sonnet, whether you put bluebonnet on it, iambic pentameter bomber go away, the poetry police are not going to play, you have a lesson to be learning, remember to keep the flame burning ~ pictures today are from The Library of Congress ~ selah
