“Tim Cook Apple”
– 45
.
On Eminem’s best day, he couldn’t say that so fast, that if you slowed it down you wouldn’t be able to decipher “Cook”.
.
“Republican donors in attendance called it one of Trump’s weirdest lies ever. On Friday night, under a tent erected over the pool at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, President Trump claimed the media were spreading “fake news” when they said he called the CEO of Apple “Tim Apple.”
Trump told the donors that he actually said “Tim Cook Apple” really fast, and the “Cook” part of the sentence was soft. But all you heard from the “fake news,” he said, was “Tim Apple.”
.
Two donors who were there told me they couldn’t understand why the president would make such a claim given the whole thing is captured on video. Nobody cared, they said, and Tim Cook took it in good humor by changing his Twitter profile to Tim Apple.
“I just thought, why would you lie about that,” one of the donors told me. “It doesn’t even matter!”
.
I guess it only matters ’cause people believe, what they want to believe.
Must be some kind of mystical adhesive that coagulates the atoms, protons and neutrons, derived further from subatomic particles like quarks and neutrinos (that are indeterminible waves or particles) into what appears to be an ego self in the form of a humanoid, deluding itself that it is separate from the whole.
Wasting its infinite power on accepting audible emanations from a human (made up of the same “stuff”) whose inflated, fragile and heightened narcissistic ego leads some to believe everything that collection of congregated cells says.

“There is just enough bullshit to hold things together in this country.
Bullshit is the glue, that binds us as a nation. Where would we be without our safe, familiar, American bullshit?
Land of the free, home of the brave, the American dream, all men are equal, justice is blind, the press is free, your vote counts, business is honest, the good guys win, the police are on your side, god is watching you, your standard of living will never decline… and everything is going to be just fine—
The official national bullshit story. I call it the American okie doke. Every one, every one of those items is provably untrue at one level or another, but we believe them because they’re pounded into our heads from the time we’re children.
That’s what they do with that kind of thing—pound it into the heads of kids, ‘cause they know the children are much too young to be able to muster an intellectual defense against a sophisticated idea like that, and they know that up to a certain age children believe everything their parents tell them.
And as a result, they never learn to question things. Nobody questions things in this country anymore.
Nobody questions it—everybody is too fat and happy. Everybody’s got a cell phone that’ll make pancakes and rub their balls now— Way too fucking prosperous for our own good. Way too fucking prosperous,
Americans have been bought off and silenced by toys and gizmos. And no one learns to question things.”

The big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions.
Forget the politicians. They are irrelevant.
The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice.
You don’t.
You have no choice.
You have owners.
They own you.
They own everything.
They own all the important land.
They own, and control the corporations.
They’ve long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear.

Won’t the future be amazing when the technology creates a device where you can connect with another human being
One that sits on a night stand or hangs on a wall so you will always know where it is and never lose it.
Perhaps by pressing a few buttons you can talk into a mouthpiece and hear the other person’s voice with crystal clarity through a round speaker. Disconnect by simply placing the handset in a cradle.
An invention so advanced, it will work, even when the power goes out. Virtually indestructible, should it accidentally be dropped. So timeless, once it is in place, it will never ever need to be replaced. Therefore the cost to own it will be essentially zero, not forty dollars a month forever.
Within it an unprogramed feature, that circumstantially teaches you to trust and develop your instincts that when you are not near it and you hear “bad” news you can tune in to the emotional frequency of a family member to determine their health and well-being.
A simple doohicky that performs those basic functions that you won’t need it to file taxes, research the pyramids, create a music video or carry to wipe your butt, pick your nose, scratch your ass or shave your legs.
Maybe, it will even have a cord, so it can’t be brought into a bathroom anyway.

“It’s amazing how different shit is now. And it hasn’t been this way for a long time. It has been a very short time.

Now we have this, which is amazing. You have these phone that you can call in an air strike. You can look at the top of your own head. It’s amazing this shit and it’s wasted on the shitiest piece of assholes. I swear to god. We are the worst people.
Because we have this beautiful thing, and we hate it. We are just, “duh nuh.” I have never seen a person going, “Look what my phone can do…” Nobody does that. They all go, “Fu**ing thing grrrrr. sucks….I can’t get it to…”

Can you just wait?!?! Can you just wait? And just take a little breathe. Just wait for the picture of axle rose to get on your phone. Like it doesn’t f***in matter what you are doing. We are all so mad, “I hate my phone. It sucks.”
No it doesn’t. It’s amazing. The shitiest cellphone in the world is a miracle. Your life sucks around the phone. Why are you so mad at it.
People say the craziest thing, “I hate verizon.” What are you talking about? How can that feeling exist? “I hate verizon.” Why? Did they fire you and take away your pension? “No just a couple of times it went weird for a second. I hate them!”

“Infinite dreams I can’t deny them
Infinity is hard to comprehend
I couldn’t hear those screams
Even in my wildest dreams
Suffocation waking in a sweat
Scared to fall asleep again
In case the dream begins again
Someone chasing I cannot move
Standing rigid a nightmare’s statue
What a dream when will it end
And will I transcend?
Restless sleep the minds in turmoil
One nightmare ends another fertile
It’s getting to me so scared to sleep
But scared to wake now, in too deep.
Even though it’s reached new heights
I’d rather like the restless nights
It makes me wonder it makes me think
There’s more to this I’m on the brink
It’s not the fear of what’s beyond
It’s just that I might not respond
I have an interest almost craving
But would I like to get too far in?
Can’t all be coincidence
Too many things are evident
You tell me you’re an unbeliever
Spiritualists? Well me I’m neither
Wouldn’t you like to know
The truth?
Oh what’s out there to have the proof
And find out just which side
You’re on
Where would you end in Heaven or
In Hell?
[Solo]
Help me. Help me to find my true
Self without seeing the future
Save me, save me from torturing
Myself even within my dreams
There’s got to be just more to it than this
Or tell me why do we exist
I’d like to think that when I die
I’d get a chance another time
And to return and live again
Reincarnate, play the game
Again and again and again.”

Deluding themselves that some amendment
Gives them power over an already

“Trump’s labor secretary broke the law by offering secret plea deal to accused pedophile, judge rules
Labor Secretary Alex Acosta was a U.S. attorney in Miami at the time of the deal, which sent wealthy financier Jeffrey Epstein to prison for only 13 months.”*
Federal prosecutors, including a current member of President Donald Trump’s Cabinet, broke the law when they offered wealthy financier and accused pedophile Jeffrey Epstein a plea bargain in 2008 that allowed him to get off easy, a judge ruled. Epstein served only 13 months after being accused of sexually abusing dozens of young girls.
U.S. District Judge Kenneth Marra said Thursday that prosecutors — including Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta, who was a U.S. attorney in Miami at the time of the plea deal — ignored evidence that Epstein had been operating a sex trafficking ring of underage girls, according to the Miami Herald. Epstein was allowed to negotiate a non-prosecution agreement, or a deal that granted him immunity from federal charges, by pleading guilty to two state charges.
