Like words falling on deaf ears
It is actions falling on dead souls
Lawyering up, is not going to undo the damage that has been done.
Which, who is to say any damage has happened? Our collective psyche already seems to be worn down past any further damage. Down to its survival nubbin, of watching and waiting.
Watching the entertainment because there is nothing to do to help, save buying some more high or low priced gizmos to self satisfy. Help the economy, feed the machine.
Waiting in distraction mode, for some thing or entity to gently remove our mental toys and brightly lit screens to tell us, it is time to grow up and be the divine beings we are.
Maybe the focus on the show happening between the white house and the red square is merely a wake up call.
One designed to crescendo our awareness, that this “system” is not working. All the “ism’s” are merely minor systems of thought that keep us divided from being whole.
I would like to think my perception tells me, we are on the brink of a paradigm shift into a whole new way of being.
Like an entire school of fish that turn synchronisticly at the same time sensing danger.
That or being a couple of monkeys shy of satisfying the 100th monkey theory, where, if a core group of people envision a better way then actively change, the remaining will (sub) consciously follow suit.

A better title might be “Stool plus sequiturs, non sequiturs, and other things that do not really belong”.
Looks like it is time for a new stool. The three legged one, we’ve been resting our unconscious arse on is collapsing.
The executive leg is disintegrating, petrified by corrupt collusion, ravaged by rhetoric, hardened by hubris (the most powerful office /man in the world).
The judicial leg is so encumbered by trying to throw its weight around in an effort to prop up the other two it has lost its usefulness.
The legislative leg has been doing nothing for so long it forgot it was part of the stool, other than primping and preening by the grains inside that wish to replace the executive leg.
Save for the egomaniacal petulant baby billionaire who needed even more attention and approval. That he could be the executive leg and used any means to be it regardless actual ability.
Constitutional knowledge, human decency, a functioning vocabulary, you know, simple stuff like that.
The stool served its purpose and functioned okay for the population at the time, besides it looked good on paper.
Obviously, it is the most protected piece of paper on the planet, a guarded papyrus, on a philosophy of a biblically based fascism facade for a surreptitious system of conniving control.
Deca amended almost immediately and seventeen times since.
Still ignoring half the population not passing the equal rights amendment. Sorry ladies, maybe when it is not so busy being defended, that part will get tweaked.
Aspirations to evolve into a conscionable enlightened bipedal earthling artist will not be written on paper. It is already indelibly etched on everyone’s hearts.
Just need to carve away the stone and discover the beauty inside.
“As that becomes more developed, more enlightened, as new discoveries are made, new truths discovered and manners and opinions change, with the change of circumstances, institutions must advance also to keep pace with the times.”
Thomas Jefferson
The stool might have worked a little longer and much better if it wasn’t supporting an out of control population.
Unfortunately bipedal earthlings like rutting too much, and / or still do not know where babies come from. Thereby compounding solvable problems into spiraling out of control ones.
Life in two dimensions
Is a mass production scheme
From “Grand Designs” by Rush
Of which it is unlikely to slow down as everyone gets to cash in on the creation of creating consumers. Accepting with a blind eye, turned towards the degradation of the planet, the water supply, the air we all breath, sacrificing of personal “space”.
Stepping back and taking an objective look at the stool makes one realize it is all about control.
It’s kind of a which came first, chicken or egg oroborus type argument.
Are there laws because there are criminals? Or are there criminals because there are laws
It is illegal to walk across the road in the middle of the street if you are trying to get more than 25 feet away from the entrance to a building as that is illegal because you want to inhale carcinogens from a product you’ve paid vice taxes on.
Yet, depending on what cloak (there’s irony) is worn, it is perfectly legal to kill someone who matters, even if it is only “felt” that they were in danger.

Tell me again, where freedom…. lies?
“Democracy is the worst kind, I am sorry, but it is. We get to pick our leaders..well…
What if I don’t want a leader? Where does that vote go? I do good on my own, I don’t want to be “led”. Is that freedom?”
“American Idol (Idle) was the number one show on television // those are the people picking your leaders with less insight then they put in to whether or not Rubin Stoddard should win an award. It’s dumb”

Evolutions to a new paradigm shift.
New visions for new eyes
New music for new ears
New dialogue for new mouths
New words for better communication
New flavors for better tastes
Larger hearts for more love
Expanding senses for more feelings
More awareness for infinite beings
Hmm? Missing something…. Think …
Think…Mustn’t get too grandiose and take myself too seriously. …..Think….
Oh yeah, New farts for new smells.
Not wanting to complain with out offering a solution. Here’s the seven legs for the new stool.
Management
Awareness
Transparency
Economic
Resources
Food / health
Peace
It is understandable how the military industrial complex feeds off of itself and not so much the actuality of war, but merely the anticipation and preparation for it, simply by casting fear and doubts.
Unfortunately it employs lots of people who need and want to work. Building toys of mass destruction which only aim is to kill and destroy.
Instead of just arbitrarily accepting death work, could be replaced by making systems to harvest and distribute food and water.
Should be as simple as forging those swords into plowshares, no?
The underlying memed belief that got completely discombobulated was when the war department went through the ugly euphemistic process of remaining exactly the same with the kinder gentler moniker of defense.
At a time when the collective was waking up out of a comatose hibernation.
Realizing that there was no reason for anyone’s fellow space travelers to be slaughtered simply because of geography, race, beliefs, or how much natural resources they are located above.
Continued on New Stool (Leg 3)
Special Thanks to Doug Stanhope’s creativity to close this 3 part post out.
“It’s not a free country. You’re born free.
I mean, you are born absolutely free, except for the laws of nature. If you drink, you get drunk. That’s a law. If you get old, you die. That’s a law too. If you sit on a tack, you will bleed from the ass.
These are the only laws they that you’re born with. And any kind of government just #ucks you out that type of freedom.
If you really think you’re free tonight… You, hero! Officer Bob, you’re a free man! You live in a free country!
You go upstairs… You take your own beer you risked your life for… You sit on the hood of your monster truck in a parking lot… Drink your beer. And see how long it is before actual veteran cops come by and pound on you with trudgeons on the kidneys, to show… “Why can’t I do it? I’m just having a beer.” “I don’t know.
That’s the law, you don’t #uck around.” You can’t drive down the street without a seatbelt on, why not? You gotta put on a helmet.
You can’t sit in your own backyard naked, your own filthy dirty flesh that you’re born with. You know that body you carry around? “Filthy! You can’t sit out… Why not? I don’t know, that’s just the way it is.”
You’re not free. You’re not free in the least. You need a dipoma in this country to cut hair. Are you free? You need to keep your tray in a operate and a locked position during take-off. That’s not just a hack premise, it’s a #ucking felony.
//
“Why do I have to have…? This doesn’t make sense.”
They say if you give a man a fish, he’ll eat for a day. But if you teach a man to fish… Then he’s gotta get a fishing license, but he doesn’t have any money. So he’s gotta get a job, and he has to get another Social Security system and pay taxes.
And now you gonna audit the poor (×ck$@(ker cause he’s not really good with math. He’ll pull the IRS van up to your house. He’ll take all your shit.
//
And then all goes up for auction with the burden of proof on you, cause you forgot to carry the one
Cause you were just worried about eating a *ucking fish. And you couldn’t even cook the fish, cause you needed a permit for an open flame. And then the Health Department is gonna start asking you a lot of questions about where are you gonna dump the scales and the guts.
“This is not a sanitary environment.”
And ladies and gentlemen, if you get sick of it all at the end of the day… it’s not even legal to kill yourself.
//
You are born free, got fucked out the half of it. And you’re waving a flag celebrating.
//
The only true freedom that you find is when you realize and come to terms with the fact that you are completely and unapologetically #ucked. And then you are free to float around the system.”
Doug Stanhope
Is it any wonder, why we are in need of a new stool?
Deafness has nothing to do with hearing
We hear what serves our purpose
Either agreeable in a need to satisfy
Or disagreeable because it challenges
Dumbness has nothing to do with intelligence
Rather the ability to ignore freewill
Knowing some aspects are limited
Must consciously use the rest, the best
Blindness has nothing to do with vision
We see what we want to perceive we see
Obviously when we can clearly “see”
With our eyes closed, using the third eye
No one needs to be deaf, dumb or blind
Open your senses and expand your mind
Use them all and do everything to be kind
With a short goofy little poem to remind
“It is what makes it scary, when you think how old most of the people who run this f@#! %g country are.
There’s a minimum age to be the president, there should be a maximum age to be the president as well.
I wouldn’t mind having a 25 year old president. Sh!# would be weird, but it would at least go forward.”
Doug Stanhope
New requirements to be President
Minimum Age 25
Maximum Age 50
Citizen requirement changed to
Need to be a human
A being with empathy compassion and an uncanny ability to fail a narcissism test.
Third requirement a real world functioning vocabulary.
Presidential Thesaurus
Good = Really good
Bad = Very bad
Beautiful = Most beautiful
Incredible = Incredibly Incredible
Sad = So sad
Important = Big League
My Bad!
I am just jealous that with all his privilege of power, he has the latest “Newspeak” dictionary right before the next one transitions into ungood, plusgood and doubleplusungood!
Might be more apropo
To start building a
Palatial prison where
The inmates are
Shackled with
Diamond encrusted
Platinum handcuffs
Given a wall sized TV
So the first guest can watch
Himself at his inauguration
With Obama’s crowd
Superimposed cheering
On the egomaniacal
Perplexed Putin puppet
Presidential prisoner
In an oval cell
Tweeting to a group
Of highly trained
Psychologists and
Psychiatrists to
Monitor his “free”
Health care of
Medication administration
While holographic
Projections of yes men
Do what they are told
And repeatedly keep
Telling him how great
He is and that next he
Should run for the
Emperor of Earth
Before being elected
Cardinal of the cosmos
Then Inspiration
Of the infinite
I was going to stop at platinum handcuffs and perhaps, should have, then fingers took over.
What if, instead?
A leader emerged
That actually led
Had no bank account
Of which to dread
Did all the best
For what people said
Used their heart
Not just their head
Save what we have now
People vertical, yet in bed
What is it then
We could really do
Think of it now
That leader is you
“I have certain rules I live by.
My first rule, I don’t believe anything that government tells me, nothing, zero, none.
And I don’t take very seriously the media or the press in this country.
Who in the case of the Persian Gulf war were nothing more than unpaid employees of the Department of Defense and who, most of the time, most of the time, functions as kind of an unofficial Public Relations Agency for the United States government.”
George Carlin
A quarter century later, as the news is seeing a different hay day. The reports are flashing images and sounds at break-spirit speed. With the extra constant addendum, stay tuned, we’ll be back with more breaking news. This just in.
Meanwhile if the average Joe or Jane were undergoing that much scrutiny, they would be in prison right now.
Left to sort out the details whenever. Yet, since it involves the president, nothing is happening.
Congress can not exactly step up either as in all likelihood, if they rise up to do the right thing, the skeletons in their closet will come out dancing in a bone banging line formation of the “Locomotion”. All the way from Washington DC to Langley and back.
Like Penn and Teller might say in (Ok, Penn) dissecting an illusion, to see how people are being tricked. You need to focus on the distraction.
What the Donald likes to call the fake news. Certainly since Faux news is his corporate lapdog, besides they will report what he decides, via tumultuous twitter.
Everybody’s eyes are so glued to the screens waiting for them to pull a rabbit out of their hat, the big D and his family are getting away with felonies, treason, malfeasance and probably a lot of cash.
The stage(d) show continues, nothing has changed on health care reform, no tax code revision, unconstitutional executive orders clog the courts, walls are neither being built or paid for.
Maybe if the money was followed, we’d find out the press/media is no longer the government’s unpaid employee.
Rather the 4th branch with a black ops bank account to keep stirring the pot, with nothing getting cooked, save the truth.
Just like supporting the Iraq war when the alleged culprits were in Afghanistan.
Or 9 11 ignoring no plane in Shanksville or the Pentagon, and how building 7 mysteriously collapsed. The 4th branch played along then, why would we expect any different now.
Must be that society as a whole, is a trusting Charlie Brown, believing that Lucy Van Pelt will not pull the football at the last second so as to land hard on our back. To trust over and over again.
Most every one being distracted ad nauseam.
Strange Beliefs
Is it not strange that some of what you may believe, is based on what channel you watch? Or what station you listen?
Kind of lets you know who is in charge and is laughing all the way to the bank.
Meanwhile all / both sides are propped up and “sponsored” by the following.
A fluffy pillow, softer sheets, mortgages, reverse mortgages, insurance, life, car, motorcycle, appliance, business, health, fraud, (how ironic), cleaners, cars, car cleaners, kitty litter, clothing, crafts, cameras, class action lawsuits, pharmaceutical finagling, donuts, detergents, diamonds, diapers, drugs, plumbers, plates, pianos, prescriptions, lawyers, lipstick, lashes, languages, toys, tools, trucks, trampolines, televisions, fast food, fried foods, frozen food, fresh food, forever food, cell phones, cell services, surveillance, security systems, beer, boats, bras, brands, bananas, gadgets, gizmos and garbage.
The basis for the distraction is leaking out of your bank account like an open hose.
“I’ll show you politics in America.
Here it is, right here.
“I think the puppet on the right shares my beliefs.”
“I think the puppet on the left is more to my liking.”
“Hey, wait a minute, there’s one guy holding out both puppets!”
“Shut up! Go back to bed, America. Your government (and corporations) are in control.”
Bill Hicks
Suit up or dawn the robes?
Once heard that a business suit is the metaphorical equivalent to a suit of armor.
An armor of concealment and protection.
What to wear ?
Double breasted, elbow pads, neckties and cufflinks.
Or
The loose of openness and vulnerability of free flowing comfortable garments.
WDJW ?
What we say we want is not what we honor or give credence.
Still waiting for that Jesus Archetype to show up, then the collective will know what to wear and how to dress / behave.
Meanwhile, if we paid attention, and looked a little, okay a lot deeper, into our how to be closet. We would find the outerwear to match our inner knowing.
Still never sure exactly where this content context comes from but since it landed here, I left it here.
Where is an editor or a delete-er when you really need one?
