Who governs? Who really rules? To what extent is the broad body of U.S. citizens sovereign, semi-sovereign, or largely powerless? These questions have animated much important work in the study of American politics.

, the bulletin board software is so godamned linear you can't see the curves, the way the posts on different threads feed off of each other, the threads weaving together into strands of thoughts interconnected into a whole that is meaning full yet pleasing to the monkey brain..
always looking for patterns like being constantly stoned on acid seeing the uncanny all around me, trying to find the patterns in the abstract, a fractal-ized consciousness

this is just another scream in the machine
but I am tired of thinking about Camelot
not tired, depressed maybe. trying to find a way to carry on

that software worked for Levi but most of all it was the people who were attracted to his personality, a really beautiful cant, a lot like Jack, but jack was not a philosopher king, he liked the clowns, the mad men, not so rational

sorry mnaz,

you do good work
if I had not liked it I would not have spilled my guts,

Have you ever done a search of your posts and look at the result for patterns>>>?
interconnections to other thread by other people?
You get a page of snippets which are sometimes interesting and related.
But that is probably just my vanity

I guess I still have that image of the litkicks threads in my minds eye when I post these random text boxes of mine.

sorry for the blurt
What pisses me off is being alive.
If I was dead I think I would be more content with things

Sorry sometimes I forget that we must stand by our words as if they actually mean something, all my friends are dead philologists it seems

I know the type, they love to play word games, it is all a lovely game, everything is beautiful in their beautiful minds, there is always room for doubt.

And they exploit doubt with their immaculate logic,

Always another side to the issue, on the other hand,
the invisible hand of the market place maybe.

What do I know, I am crazy.

but
not so good in the Congo
but pheffffffft,
nobody cares about that
it's the white man's burden
it is a terrible cross to bear
I don't know why I think about it even
have not seen a story on it in weeks
as if i have to remind myself of suffering when I am not suffering so as not to forget to pray to Jesus and play the lotto.
we live on the edge here, we are marginal people in my house, one more huff and a puff and we will have been blown away, a man of means by no means

I don't understand either. Sometimes it makes me doubt my sanity. A friend once told me if everyone seems crazy that is a good sign you are crazy. I suppose it is some comfort to know there are others who don't get it either. Not so lonely feeling.

thanks for writing

“Capital in the Twenty-First Century,” the new book by the French economist Thomas Piketty, is a bona fide phenomenon. Other books on economics have been best sellers, but Mr. Piketty’s contribution is serious, discourse-changing scholarship in a way most best sellers aren’t. And conservatives are terrified. Thus James Pethokoukis of the American Enterprise Institute warns in National Review that Mr. Piketty’s work must be refuted, because otherwise it “will spread among the clerisy and reshape the political economic landscape on which all future policy battles will be waged.”

Well, good luck with that. The really striking thing about the debate so far is that the right seems unable to mount any kind of substantive counterattack to Mr. Piketty’s thesis. Instead, the response has been all about name-calling — in particular, claims that Mr. Piketty is a Marxist, and so is anyone who considers inequality of income and wealth an important issue.

I’ll come back to the name-calling in a moment. First, let’s talk about why “Capital” is having such an impact.

Mr. Piketty is hardly the first economist to point out that we are experiencing a sharp rise in inequality, or even to emphasize the contrast between slow income growth for most of the population and soaring incomes at the top. It’s true that Mr. Piketty and his colleagues have added a great deal of historical depth to our knowledge, demonstrating that we really are living in a new Gilded Age. But we’ve known that for a while.


No, what’s really new about “Capital” is the way it demolishes that most cherished of conservative myths, the insistence that we’re living in a meritocracy in which great wealth is earned and deserved.

For the past couple of decades, the conservative response to attempts to make soaring incomes at the top into a political issue has involved two lines of defense: first, denial that the rich are actually doing as well and the rest as badly as they are, but when denial fails, claims that those soaring incomes at the top are a justified reward for services rendered. Don’t call them the 1 percent, or the wealthy; call them “job creators.”

But how do you make that defense if the rich derive much of their income not from the work they do but from the assets they own? And what if great wealth comes increasingly not from enterprise but from inheritance?

What Mr. Piketty shows is that these are not idle questions. Western societies before World War I were indeed dominated by an oligarchy of inherited wealth — and his book makes a compelling case that we’re well on our way back toward that state.

I am worried about my little rock and roller's daughter, been thinking about taking mother and child to a Quaker meeting see if I can get her into First Day school. She is going to a day care center where the jesus freaks run the place, if the kid is going to get religion I don/t want it to be from the likes of them, they got daggers eyes and in their teeth when they smile. they creep me out.

These platforms generally claim that they don’t censor content but only delete it when it violates copyrights, contains nudity, or is abusive. Yet it’s easy to find cases where the meddling looks subjective. Facebook banned an ad for an event promoting “body positivity” that used a photo of plus-size model Tess Holliday, for example. “Ads may not depict a state of health or body weight as being perfect or extremely undesirable,” Facebook said in a statement. “Ads like these are not allowed since they make viewers feel bad about themselves. Instead, we recommend using an image of a relevant activity, such as running or riding a bike.”

the scent of elephant
vaguely I remember
it wafting from elephant
house at the national zoo
pungent in its aroma
yet not revolting.....

[stilltrucking]

just big old cows
and they don't kick your ass if you annoy them.
clean dirt just funky musty musky odor, lots of straw in in,
never forget the smell of the tigers
stench, reminds me of denture breath

once, twice, maybe woke with the scent of a woman in my dreams, don't remember those dreams too well, but I usually wake from them with a satisfied mind. Nice to know that I am nt too old to remember . Never found a woman that could stand to have me around for long, except for one woman who put up with me for a few years because I kept her amused, but after our abortion I was not much fun to be around. One day she just took off for California and a new beginning far far from me.

one day I will have a honey hive in my heart just like jimboloco
