King of the Dungheap

Through the years I've taught myself a great many things, guitar, programming, network administration, business management, inventory systems, and likely a number of things I've completely forgotten about. I've come to understand that ultimately these skills all stem from being a free-thinking problem solver rather than any other label one might try to place upon me. I realize that I owe these abilities to those who happened to be available and willing to lend their knowledge and time to either myself, or the project I was working on at the time. I also understand that unseen hands pointed me in the direction I needed to go, which is something that has really come into focus in recent years.

Lately, though, it is feeling more like knowledge is coming to me via some form of osmosis. While it's true that I have plenty of experience and history with computing and technology, I am reciting statistics I've never read and somehow being accurate, or, looking at problems I've never seen and solving them with no research with a high probability of being correct. This is not to say I am making no procedural or clerical errors at the new job, but then I've never been one to blindly follow rules until I fully grasp the 'why' behind them (wink). Besides, there are a great many things which can only be properly learned through the process of making mistakes, so long as those mistakes don't include packing your own parachute improperly, or not lighting a match to find the gas leak.

I've finally come to understand that my inability to find a comfortable niche in this world is not some family curse, but rather the gift of seeing that there is not much to take comfort in unless simply knowing that 'all is not right with the world and why' is supposed to be enough... Which, to one who solves problems, simply knowing can never be enough. Knowing is only half the battle.

I know I may appear to be limping along under the radar on a tank full of fumes, but the signs have been growing that what is coming is very nearly here. I see the geopolitics being played in this 'west vs everybody else' game as violence hits the streets of Africa, the middle East, the Mediterranean and eastern Europe, Venezuela, Thailand, and anywhere else 'the hunt for the real terrorists ' ends up. I know who sold our future at negative interest rates in favor of further rigging to roulette marble to continue spinning over a wheel populated solely of double zeros on a betting field containing no zeros at all.

Not that it makes any sense at all to watch the wolves gobble up a currency with no value merely to win the title 'king of the mountain' when the truth of that vista is to look down at your legs knee-deep in fly-infested shit and decomposing corpses of those too long dead to envy your victory.

But then, I suppose my discomfort level was not put in place to compel me to play roulette to begin with.

Green TV's and Other Non-Recyclable Garbage

I know that I've been biding my time of late, enjoying the artifacts of a much too slowly dying age and delighting in the amped up insanity of those who've corrupted and stolen everything corruptible or stealable from us and whom have now entered a state of envy over the greenness of their coconspirators' lawns. The trouble is that I quite frankly have no idea what to expect going forward.

Maybe it was all said by the oracle in the matrix "nobody can see past the choices they don't understand". Ironic considering that presently I'm choosing not to choose, but then, that still means actively being inactive which is still something under my control. Perhaps I am simply waiting for something which has been moving slower than a snails pace, or maybe I am not meant to see the next phase, especially since I'd expected that to have begun some time ago.

I understand that things will have to get well beyond the boiling point to trigger the proper level of outrage in the majority of sleeping denizens. That's what all the distractions and anti-depressant prescriptions were meant to do... Working as intended...

It's winter here in Canada, despite any canonical implications that might generally associate with mid-May. There really is no Eco-tax expensive enough to remedy that given that "climate" means an ever changing atmosphere, thus making the asinine term "climate change" synonymous with "ever changing change" which is ultimately your pocket change becoming theirs. I understand that the sun has more to do with the planet's climate than we do regardless of whatever fancy charts are cooked up based on creative accounting and false math.

In fact, I just discovered that if I want to recycle a TV or computer monitor, I must pay $10 per screen, regardless of its type... Landfill is still free though... Work out that math and it illustrates just how Eco-friendly green fees and carbon credits are actually intended to be... There is also no system to account for the fact that I could have paid an Eco-tax at the time of purchase, especially when considering how these things are now built to die milliseconds after the warrantee expires, so we get to prepay a service that we still have to pay for... Damned on the front end, then rammed up the rear end... (sigh)

I am totally aware that things are not meant to make sense to create conditions in our head which lead us into the waiting arms of distractions or antidepressants... And I feel I've just come full-circle... So I am going to meander off into my day and commune with whatever has been maintaining my sanity thus far.

the 'Family' value of Cow Pies

So, I realize that it is going on three years that I've been writing this blog, and that the scope of it has broadened from local issues and copyright stupidities to global issues... I also realized that since I came to understand the heart of all issues that I have had very little focus on any of the day to day humdrum churned out by a slowly dying machine. Part of this stems from a level of self-regimented radio silence wherein I gather my news by simply opening my ears on a crowded bus or starting into the silent faces of those who look as though they are beginning to see through the smoke and mirrors show played out again and again in the controlled periodicals.

I hear it out loud in the voices of others: how are the Crimean referendum and the Afghani election different? Quite simply, they aren't until you examine which military was doing the occupying and then you come to understand why one was 'a great stride for democracy' while the other is 'a crime against humanity'. It is still unfortunate that not enough people are registering this level of duality in all things because that is what brings to question whose agenda is at play... I'd call out a name if I didn't suspect doing so to be a means of summons and a pox on my day.

I know I have been posting fewer links to stuff, but I honestly question whether it's worth doing as I have seen the content I've linked to change and even disappear, sometimes before I'm even done writing... There are copyright laws to prevent me from republishing many of my sources, and there is the fickle nature of digital content which can be rewritten or deleted at any time. I have, in the past, illustrated this point with pics and screen captures which is time consuming on a 30:1 scale to simply typing out a posting, so, it often turns into a lost thought or unfinished idea. I've had many of those in the form of deleted draft posts or mentions of going into greater detail later which turned into never so I do try to steer clear of such.

I may never have published my thoughts on the whole Russian anti-gay propaganda thing, but, again, this is a small-potatoes issue meant to stir up outrage over very little... I honestly feel that children should be taught to respect other people so long as they are worthy of respect regardless of their differences... I get some pretty bizarre ideas sometimes, don't I? It all goes to breaking the family unit, just as women's lib turned out to do...

Don't get me wrong, I consider women to be equals, and partners and they deserve rights to vote, work, and choose how they want to live. It's just that something has been forever lost in half a century or less... The right to be a single-income family. Yes. Now couples and heads of family need to both work for diminishing pay while someone else instills values in their children, often under some government program like daycare and public schooling... How many families can actually afford to have a housewife or househusband in their ranks these days? Yet it used to be the norm, didn't it? But we're supposed to get mad that Vladimir Putin doesn't want Russian children being convinced that it's awesome being gay... On another unpolitically correct note: my phone is rather partial to: hay, hat, gassy, grassy, and essentially any word that isn't gay, that's kind of funny in the ha ha way. Don't misinterpret my thoughts, I have no issue with homosexuality, other than its inability to naturally propagate or species except via expensive means, which, conveniently (for those who see most of us as cattle) limits parenthood to those of moderate wealth... Wow dirt©, that's a lot of dots connected in one paragraph :-)

Connecting dots becomes so much easier once you understand where money really comes from. Once you see that governments are controlled by money and not the other way around preconceived ideas all begin to lose their credibility while suddenly appearing to be very much the opposite of what you'd been taught since the womb. I know how isolating it can feel to think for yourself and how infuriating it is to realize that so many have (albeit often unknowingly) propagated such huge lies so repetitively. It was the only way such big lies could ever take hold, and the clan of subhuman refuse who've been carrying out the slow silent enslavement of everyone else knew it all along. But impatience, greed and a lust for power has them ramping up the plan too fast while also infighting amongst themselves. This is why so many have begun to see past the charade. "Evil destroys itself"

It's been a long time coming, to get to this point and to one degree or another I've always known we'd eventually be forced to react in unanticipated ways to counteract the slowly tightening noose. That time seems closer than it ever has while some elite moron gets caught red handed calling things what they so obviously are not almost every other day now. For now they only seem to be dodging flying shoes but sooner or later a more effective projectile will be discovered. They know this which is why they've been building more prisons than schools for decades and why they are so quick to label patriots: terrorists. They've forgotten a golden rule which is that propaganda can only be spread so thick before it begins to resemble cow pies.
