this is nice place to store unread things
(just to round my blog numbers to 300 lol)
About Chopin
and
George Sand
"After discovering that the couple were not married, the deeply traditional Catholic people of Majorca became inhospitable,[70] making accommodation difficult to find.
This compelled the group to take lodgings in a former Carthusian monastery in Valldemossa, which gave little shelter from the cold winter weather.[67]"
Add this to true story of Margaret Fairchild in The Lady in the Van deprives of her only love and talent by the same church
and go back to
Hypatia in 415 AD who was literally murdered by the Catholic Church
Not to mention the countless pulpit crimes committed a la "Chocolat" for control and power.
Now back to today where countless crimes against children are committed and protected.
No matter what religion you are
it seems Self-Righteouness and Outrageousness
seem to be the repeating "SINS"

FB Musings for Posterity
Music as an acquired taste.
The way one "acquires" music over the years.
I seem to recall always being a fan
of Amadeus meself
and unlike Alex DeLarge not so much a fan of
Ludwig but with a few exceptions.
Much of my classical taste strangely enough was "acquired" during my childhood
with Merry Melodies and Bugs Bunny
and Saturday Morning cartoons.
(A bygone privilege nowadays)
A much renewed love for Mozart
was of course greatly multiplied by
the grandiose Milos Forman's Amadeus.
But this particular one here was acquired years ago watching a TV movie if I recall correctly.
Christopher Plummer's enjoyment of the Emperor in Harrison Bergeron was just contagious.
Having heard the praises of the Apassionata lately in Fargo Season 3 I tried to "acquire" this one too after all it was said
"If I keep listening to Beethoven's Appassionata, I won't be able to finish the revolution."- by Lenin himself
But it doesn't seem to "stick"
Maybe Age
maybe the rules of acquisition
were not followed
who knows?

Short Pint
Combien de personnes vont plus mal que moi ! Il est vrai que beaucoup vont mieux, mais à celles-là je ne pense pas ». ~Chopin
How many people are worse off than I am! It is true that many are better, but to those I do not think. " ~Chopin
Many are worse, many are better?
Defeatist Stoicism?
Thing is like the good ole book says:
The heart knoweth his own bitterness; and a stranger doth not intermeddle with his joy.

Right for the wrong reasons?
Hard to decipher anything these days and my 2 favourites "science" sites on
Facebook are going down the drain at light speed with woo and bullshit.
Plus WEASEL WORDS are so fucking hard to decipher,
here is that word again.
Studies say? Scientist think? and other meaningless utter bullshit words.
But this article here got me thinking.
If this is right I can see all the foaming at the mouth hysterical uninformed activists jumping up and down in victory and that saddens me.
It's like a mob rejoicing and getting drunk at a lynching really.
Yes you were right but NOT for the million wrong reasons you brought to the fight like fanatical religious inquisitors and witch hunters.
So far I had always been on Monsanto's side and against the hysterical witch hunters but unlike religious fanatics and dysfunctional activists I can be subdued by real facts, real evidence if there is.
Yes there are a gazillion factors to everything and some very important interconnections in this daily, hourly fight to temporarily beat chaos with order.
Just remember now that chaos however always wins, always did, always will.
That is the process of life itself inexorably beaten every single fucking time by death.
Those who read me before know I love that word: INEXORABLY
Literally CANNOT BE PRAYED OUT OF.
The problem I see with this is that this false biased confirmation will just trigger ignorance even deeper though and
send all the crazies on a crazier fight
filled with new energy and obsession and hysteria and what not.
That crazy warrior fury that sends into adrenaline shock even half dead.
Anyway like a googolplex other horrendous things happening in this world they should be under the
Give me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change
But they are not.
Since the "receiver" in that sentence does not exist
I have to give serenity to myself somehow

Brain Fart number two
Warped Everything
From races to sex to everything.
Race
One of the big thing these days is the JSWs and The Witcher.
About having a what they now call a BAME
playing white Ciri.
(Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic)
The term becomes a little more fluid if you live in Africa or China or India and another hundred countries.
But to millennial JSW snowflakes
it's a windmill to fight.
It's like trying to get hired as a Caucasian at SBS.
Not a snowball chance in hell.
That Witcher thing though
got really carried away
and the 9GAG community is having a ball with it.
It's like this other windmill here Milennial Don Quixotes.
Culture Appropriation?
Where the fuck were you in the time of Colonialism when your fucking culture was being assimilated by the Borgs/Brits/French/Spanish/Dutch/Portuguese etc?
Sex
This here which seems to me to be a lot of hysterical nitpicking trying hard to find something to write when you got fuck all to say
Also read the other day a survey:
Is it OK for a man to talk to a woman in the street?
Or something like that.
It just seems to me that
these new SJWs
are like priests and imans and pastors
power freaks waving a power
they don't even fucking have
unless someone gives it to them.
Anyway to make this one short and concise and having two different short subjects here is number two.
It has been "established" recently
that Dolores O'Riordan
died accidentally by drowning drunk in her bathtub.
it has been hidden for a long long time,
covered, concealed
one might say
being reminded here again
that the word truth in greek, Alethia,
means lack of concealment.
Personally I don't buy the official version.
It's too clean, too easy and it serves many agendas.
For one thing it is almost perfectly normal for an Irish to die drunk which is just feeding the stereotype.
For another thing one cannot with their barbarian, medieval laws bury a "suicidee"
in "consecrated", "not-so-holy" Hole/ Ground.
So the official version makes everything honky dory.
All the previous reports before the newspeak rewrite pointed to Fentanyl but then again that is a no no.
Would it be for the sake of the children, the church, or the family it sure sounds to me like a comfortable lie.
Hell we have one of those in my own family.
So here it is Brain Fart number two
from the number one FOS.
(FOS: Full Of Shit)
for those of you who never read me before)

The cause of death was not immediately made public;[62] police said it was not being treated as suspicious.[63] The coroner's office said the results of its inquiry would not be released until 3 April at the earliest.[64] The inquest was unexpectedly cancelled on that date,[65] and was rescheduled for 6 September,[66] where it was ruled that she died as a result of accidental drowning in a bathtub due to sedation by alcohol intoxication.[67]For one thing
it has been hidden for a long long time,

Brain fart of the moment
Unrevised and Unedited.
pre-fab aphorisms and part-time philosophers
"Lessons taught by life"
It's a bit like establishing yourself as the prophet, the mouthpiece, of a silent god.
Life like god like the universe in in true reality does not give a single flying fuck.
One would have to look at the whole picture:
the gazillion cruel deaths and sicknesses and losses going on
every single minute on this planet,
every single second.
Nah they only look at it
when it affects them closely and personally.
Fishes and Chimpanzees
and Lions and Antelopes
don't go on and on and on
about The Problem of Evil:
they live it every single fucking day.
That hubris we acquired somewhere in the evolutionary process is what fucks up our view of the reality of the animal world
and we are the animals.
Not only animals,
all forms of life suffer,
ants and wasps and spiders and bees
and big microbes and viruses
eating small microbes and viruses,
Sometimes viruses eat big microbes like us.
Plants also under the assaults of nature and men.
Hell we create havoc with the land and petrol and fracking and mining and what not.
Even though we are the number one predator and the "top of the food chain" we too often fall prey to many illnesses and premature deaths,
too often caused unfortunately
by politics (wars) and religions.
I hope one day I can do like my brother and one or two other friends and just stay the fuck away from Facebook.
I don't do Twitter or Instagram so when I think of quitting social media I think of fucking off Facebook.
I have done it once a long time ago and I don't see myself having the courage to do it again.
Sure I would miss one or two friends but the aggravation and head shaking would be much less.
Sure I could do the culling of all culling and get rid of most stuff and people who wouldn't give me the time of day.
Mind you most of my blogs have probably been triggered by Facebook.
Some of the head shaking come from the grand many delusions out there and the head so far up your ass attitude.
i.e. the one who has never ever done anything for free and always expect something in return posting new age bullshit like now it is time to take care of me and think of myself. When THE FUCK have you ever NOT done that?
You pick a half-baked poster
here and there and
make it your OWN temporary life statement
as a whole
and all your sycophants friends go
goo goo ga ga over you.
PUHLEASE!
Facebook is really two dimensional as Ani DiFranco would say.
Would I be a better person if I stayed off FB?
Probably not.
And like everything else in life there are always a few precious pearls in it but as always one has to dig em out off a ton of manure.
Well pardon my French
but shit gets tiring in the long run.
Anyway just my brain running away for a few minutes before returning
to its lethargy and boredom and depression.
Take it as you will

Facebook is really two dimensional as Ani DiFranco would say.
People talk about my imageLike i come in two dimensionsLike lipstick is a sign of my decling mindLike what i happen to be wearingThe day that someone takes a pictureIs my new statement for all womankind
And i wish they could see us nowIn leather bras and rubber shortsLike some ridiculous new team uniformFor some ridiculous new sportQuick someone call the girl policeAnd file a report
Would I be a better person if I stayed off FB?
Probably not.
And like everything else in life there are always a few precious pearls in it but as always one has to dig em out off a ton of manure.

My CREDO
MSG isn't toxic.
GMO is good.
Salt is good.
Eggs are good.
Butter is good.
Red Meat is good.
It's all in the quantity and moderation.
Alcohol is riding the wavy storm for now
but will come out on top methinks
AGAIN in moderation.
The earth is round and 4 billion years old.
Religions are bad now
but somehow necessary apparently for defective human beings
(and we all are defective human beings)
to function properly in society
even though I doubt
the cost of ignorance
outweighs
the cost of losing our delusions.
Errrr what else?
The Universe doesn't give a single flying fuck about you
and all life and death is a matter of RNG
(Random Number Generation)
There is no God
and nobody cares
and Mother Earth is not an entity.
Your birth or your death is not more or less important than the ant or the baby whale
even though close ones
will always miss you for a while.
(Time is relative)
Give it a few billion years
and all records we ever existed
will have VANISHED in dust and atoms
Chakra is bullshit
Reiki is bullshit
Acupuncture is bullshit
and there are more fallacies and lies out there than one can count.
Considering that if one could count to 3 billion
at 1 number per second
it would take one more than 90 years to do so.
N.B. As always and as anyone
I could be totally wrong on
all of these,
some of these,
or a few of these
BUT like most persons,
I don't think I am.
Mind you the whole world
is probably wrong about everything
if we just extrapolate a little
on how wrong the world was just 50 years ago.
