I cannot believe I heard this !

Kelsey Grammer just destroyed his bookings for the forthcoming ‘Man of la Mancha’  bbc r4 0830 and tells us he likes what he hears from donald j trump, had voted for him and the full two years later is still okay with what he hears.

This is utterly baffling. We have a screaming outright idiot/ dictator in the White House and the bbc r4 are able to pull off this stunt! I have always maintained there is bbc bias, an agenda, a viewpoint but this goes against all common sense and decency.

Another instance how ‘the world out there’ is increasingly distorted, the break-away seven from the Labour Party are in my opinon to be applauded, to have had the nerve to dump an unusable system called the Labour Party under Corbyn. Clever fella Corbyn, good on camera, loves his little loudspeaker van, always able to deride the party in power yet generally has no policy of his own, would be disastrous in power; one gets the feeling too much time spent watching, ruminating, but reacting (albeit often v slowly) … but no forward energy. Without T May as a punchbag its hard to know what he thinks.

We are in a strange place, the disastrous Brexit will destroy any UK car manufacturing and the supply chain, we were sold a simplified idea of the future. With what we know now Brexit would never happen, yet T May steam rollers on regardless. Those responsible for this simplified over-sell have a great deal to answer for. Perhaps the over-simplified ‘sell’ was an indication of their own limited abilities?

How we think, reach a viewpoint is quite odd nowadays, information is not necessarilly enlightenment. trump rides on this, tv show experience he knows fine well is all he need know.

Theres a common thread in all this, Brexit and trump … its the destruction of present evolved systems and trading partnerships. I shudder as perishable goods / agriculture will fare in the present situation. With trump I’d say he’s knocking down the little men, the smaller producers to allow his bigtime new friends to hoover up any opportunity at knock down prices.

Lets look at how being connected, the digital superfluity of so-called connectedness is diminishing the human experience … https://wordpress.com/read/feeds/84273524/posts/2177568231

 

Esquire and links…

The Esquire article holds worthwhile links to get a grip on climate change, it would benefit donald j trump enormously to get a handle on this  ….

https://www.esquire.com/news-politics/a26077427/trump-tweet-midwest-cold-global-warming/

With warming oceans you can forget abt the marine food chain, lower strata and indispensable diatoms, algae, plankton hardly get mentioned yet are crucial. Its my opinion its diatom collapse that we’ve lost coral reef, its a symbiotic relationship and have yet to find one article stating this case.  Its burning the oil and gas remains of diatoms that has led us to this predicament, ironic in the extreme. A few months ago i posted a ‘make a model of planet Earth’ whereby the usable space ie a mile total on this planet is represented by a one thousandths of an inch cigarette paper moistened onto the surface of a kids eight inch diameter football. Scale one thou inch equals one mile. A lot of the ice is melting from below, as when kids, we are so suprised next day its gone. As Sam Carana tells us its when grain production fails that we will really be in a predicament. Its as if everything we have, nature etc is merely a scummy film ready to be wiped off.

trump is a dickhead of an extreme and dangerous kind, seems theres a word to express his wish to incubate, spread and render viable the worst of ignorance for the common masses i mean those people he cares not one jot for other than poll and voting numbers … the spread of ignorance agnotology.

f … for Fake ?

I started a facebook account a few days ago (which I have mothballed) and already knew it was a jumble of nonsense as any form of blogging platform; the local tie-in unwanted was an irritation as were ads which screamed ‘fake’.

An hour or more of my life wasted. Compounded by several logins foiled and insisting on a pic of myself log in after log in.  Needless to say it was a random piece of junk submitted.

But ….WTF !

facebook is a crappy cluttered trivial to extreme piece of junk. Yet think of all the lovely analytics it provides. Quite obscene. Life was never meant for such up the arse triviality called facebook. Or surveillence called facebook.

My reason for this post is the irony of trump endlessly hurling the insult FAKE to the Free Press ie journalists of acumen and hard effort yet when it comes to the fakery and nonsense of facebookhis little helper to election – he is silent. We can now see the extent of Russian manipulation via facebook. I’m sorry to say that I don’t hold Zuckerberg in any positive esteem.

 

 

Essential listening…

This is a good vid, straight into the nitty gritty … the stupidity of trump, the urgency of climate change, the arrogance and blind refusal of the GOP to accept climate change being real and the problem is here right now … notice Noam Chomsky tells us of the obscene roll-back of USA Emmisions Laws … they admit they don’t care and it ‘doesn’t matter’ ….. the bar is set so low now that people are limboing in the mud itself.

 

This woman will be President …

If we are all still here and not drowned in the mental impairement of oxygen deprivation then i think and quite hope Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez would make a fine n dandy POTUS.

We need vigour, morality, an excitement to work … all things that our Fox grazing present incumbent does not hold, I mean the excrement known as trump.

 

Quite how bad trump actually is …

Some links here to shed light on the nastiness of trump.

Boy-o-boy is he crooked and utterly without any shred of virtue, morals, or upright  ethics whatever.

Postscript ….

I knew someone that so much seemed like trump, in the early / mid 1970’s. He too was a total bullshitter, fantasy out on a limb.

https://wordpress.com/read/feeds/84273524/posts/2135583424

Its proven now beyond a doubt that the insults that trump hurls are in fact most applicable to himself. Fake being the first to spring to mind. Its shambolic beyond belief that with so much inherited wealth he for decades has limped on under so much debt, lies, covert tactics, and multiple bankruptcies. Ringing newspapers under a phoney name to brag and exaggerrate his wealth and equally phoney business acumen is indeed the work of a backward deluded individual.

Overnight here in the UK we learn trump grossed out on filling a huge table with fast food for the visit of winning athletes. They should have boycotted the offered fare, touched nothing, after all …. they are athletes!  I see the table of fast food strangely promoted as ‘American’ to be nothing more than a veiled insult. Maybe ivanka and / or jared colluding on this quite sick manouvre.  As we know now western advantaged diets need to steer clear of beef, the carbon cost of such food material is quite dreadful. A term I’ve just coined is  WISE UP – CARBON DOWN !! …..rather nifty I think.

 

 

 

Michael Moore ….

This must be a worthwhile interview as it had me interested 100%, often my mind gets sidetracked (I can no way watch a full length film or even desire to do so these last thirty years) but for this I’m tuned in no problem. Its difficult to find anyone these days  that can put words together work with mallaeable viewpoints and not arrive arrive already pre-conditoned and so very set in their ways from whatever, from Fox. Thinking seems to be very much out of fashion; out in the world in my little chance encounters theres seemingly no discussion, its merely people embedding themselves in ‘camps’, its all pre-set;  even on subject matter that they would struggle with if having to speak on the matter for more than a couple of minutes.  Increasingly peoples views are based on a varnish thin information pool…. trump realises this.

(trump)

How we will detest that name, that term in years to come. Synonymous with confusion and backward progress unique to trump.

Huffing and puffing, endlessly faking it, a low-down rotten-useless pantomime dame, everything including any mindful consideration reduced to a tiny dollop of a minute or two; the ultimate tv manipulator.

He is wasting the time of America and the world. I’ve met kids like him at school, what he has should have been thrashed out of him sixty years ago.

Recently a pointless grossly expensive charade to Iraq to not meet one Iraqi, turning it into mindless brainless selfies and MAGA hats. And the carbon footprint!

Now he wants to eject controls re pollution for coal burning. HOW UTTERLY out of step.

But he’s not as stupid as he seems, his progress has been to hammer a carefully graded wedge into the heart of America. To rive friends, families, towns regions into polarized camps. Wow, no-one even thought two years ago a cardboard tv reality actor could or would have achieved such devastation. He had prostitutes urinate on a bed in Russia, his own grave will be pissed on freely.

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2018/dec/29/donald-trump-impeachment-congress-house-senate

trump is strangling democracy, twisting a tourniquet on free thinking, stamping a jackboot onto the throats of the needy, he does nothing but create anxiety, set neighbour against neighbour.  And very clever at it too !

trump and his multi-pronged attack on decency and truth …..

I.C.E. Detention cruelly remote …

Not being a Statesider I wonder if this gets much exposure here in Europe and the UK?

I’ve got plenty of time for Samantha Bee, likewise Seth Myers, Bill Maher, Stephen Colbert and others or anyone that raises alarm and questions bigotry. But I do miss Keith Olberman and wonder quite why he ceased his valuable youtubes?

 

I think it will soon be filled with bunks, desks and lockers but as an opening its good for Christmas. Listen to the report in that it is so difficult to do business in a small town with next to no accomodation and is a long car drive from anywhere. Some very ‘clever’ intentionally cruel thinking going on by the planners. Very much a we and them mindset. Why so remote?  When is a Concentration Camp not a Concentration Camp?

 

Realise, its commonly assumed trump is ‘on something’ when speaking at these rallies, we know he has difficulty or at least a major reluctance to deal with the written word, hence the open refusal to use the tele-prompter. He openly without hesitation says “I don’t drink” as put forward so quickly and as witnessed in others that we know fine well they use something else.

 

Postscript a day later:  I had written … When ‘orating’ he’d promise anything if it got an ovation ….. he is fake, a con, shallow, unread.  The backdrop is managed, the man in the hard hat, the disconnect.  And deep in Russian debt. unquote. The first part above is wrong, his journey of grift and con has been very carefully graded just to be ‘on the edge’ of what is acceptable or legal. He will not ‘promise anything’ … far from it. His rhetoric looks to be most carefully planned, or as is also possible as with all great conmen talkers he knows exactly what he’s saying.  When orating trump throws out the same tid-bits the same dirty nonsense that he knows tickles the crowd and illicits the same knee jerk reaction. A jerk from the Jerk.

Now we live in a world without Mattis or Kelly to contain trumps stupidity, commentators now used the term invertebrate (something without a spine, generally slimey and wriggling, easily squashed) that will staff the White House; horribly appropriate term.

trump gorges on the swamp, adding his defecation daily.

Looking at Russia …

https://www.vox.com/world/2018/9/12/17764132/trump-mueller-russia-mafia-putin-craig-unger

How can someone with such early financial advantage have to stoop so low?

He just cannot be trusted in any way whatsoever, can never take the straight and true line; trump tweets pictures labelled from the wrong country, totally invents what the ppl are shouting and thinks the Paris Agreement is somehow actually  entangled and commessurate to the situation in the city of Paris itself.

Mr Contradictory.

Which in fact is an accurate summation of all of the trump regime.

Everything is a contradiction, an inversion, a lie.

So much window dressing, so much ‘front’ so much mere face, forever a tv arena; so clever at the ten second soundbite and now that he’s found the drama, the stage-prop of a standby helicopter.
