My final for tonight is this gem. I remember how I felt the first time I saw this movie. The VCR was a wonderous invention. I recreated this scene with my first love, long ago & dream of it sometimes.

"You alone can make my song take flight - it's over now, the music of the night" ๐ŸŒน

Good Night.

There is something about this moment in this movie that moves me, I'm not really sure why but it does.

1/2

Why
A theory.

That CoSo has a powerful positive Mimetic force. Just as many other social media sites have a powerful negative Mimetic force. Here we are introduced upon arrival, to an inclusive, and helpful mindset. Folks welcome us in. And are genuinely curious about helping us figure this all out. Not long after being here one realizes that thoughtful and positive conversations gain more attention. This then becomes a feedback loop.

I am pretty sure that this is one of the last songs my friend heard in his life. He was a hero, he saved my life and I will never be able to repay him.

I would sit there and watch him air guitar to his mix tape. Enjoy it like a bad ass marine jamming when he thought nobody was watching.

I decided to listen to some late 80's, early 90's music to add songs I have forgotten about to my playlist, but suddenly I realize I did a lot of bad stuff to these songs. Maybe that's why I forgot about them.

As it slips into the dark hours of the night, remember, the sun also rises.

Sorry, not that it matters, but I haven't posted much in the last two weeks. Hello to everyone.

I wonder how many Americans know that Congressional committee assignments determine the pot they get to steal from, uhm I mean steer contracts to donors, and join the 90% right investment club.

Sometimes I dream things that seem real. I have, for lack of a better word accepted it. Anyway, I swear that @th3j35t3r posted some USMC bootcamp clips, & when I saw them I said out loud that there was no F'n way I am looking at them having lived it. To confirm this was real I looked at his TL just now and I don't see them. Not real or deleted? Sounds like a damn gameshow.

The fact that a 36 year old man decided to have that exchange with a 19 year autistic person is very sad. People bet on how many head blows he can take, he isn't smart, and Karma knows where he is.

The funniest take I saw on Twitter was how aid to Ukraine was $ laundering to Democrats.

NEWS FLASH!!!
ALL THE $ SPENT BY CONGRESS IS MONEY LAUNDERING!

Tax, allocate, spend, tax

Sorry this ends basic civics for today, now back to Christmas.

I am really shocked how many Americans don't understand the military industrial complex and the need to feed it. Aid isn't money, it's a DOD garage sale. When we don't have actual combat, we give away older things to create the need for new. Allocate, spend, employ, tax, profit, invest, tax, & repeat. It built the largest economy on earth and nobody's turning it off. This book should required reading.
