Title of below: Even if L and me never spend another penny again on anything and continue working and dumping money into our retirement accounts and into Social Security *all* of our money will be stolen (motherfucking Democrats) by 2030 if we aren't first destroyed by a derecho 500 miles long and twenty miles deep or vaporized in a nuclear exchange or simply murdered by a lone shooter with an AK-47 in a grocery store or gassed to death by Emperor Cracker. Also too, *Kenneling* a verb in your nearer-than-you-think future. *Kettling* too, should you bitch about it in the streets (see also 2022 October 5 for stanzas of seventeen syllables for sub-title of below)
SHORT TALK ON HOPES
Anne Carson
Soon I hope to live in a totally rubber house.
Think how quickly I will be able to get from
room to room! One good bounce and you're
there. I have a friend whose hands were
melted off by a firebomb during the war.
Now, once again, he will learn to pass the
bread at the dinner table. Learning is life. I
hope to invite him over this evening in fact.
Learning is the same color as life. He says
things like that.
I was going to describe what would occur if / when The City, my City where I live, gets its Full Fathom Five in a global thermonuclear exchange; vaporization wouldn't really happen. But it has been suggested that I Not Slurry, Bees Happy, so I won't describe it. Meanwhile.
ReplyDelete1/with regard to u.s. crimes against closest allies, i had an email exchange with a 60ish person who has worked in the dc area most of their adult life
ReplyDeletei sent from Newsweek:
Video of President Joe Biden saying that he would "end" the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline has resurfaced after Nord Stream 1 and 2 were damaged in what's been described as an act of sabotage. Fox News host Tucker Carlson suggested on Monday that Biden could be responsible for the damage to the Russian-owned pipelines, neither of which were operational when they experienced major leaks into the Baltic Sea.
my correspondent replied: Without evidence linking Biden to the act (other than some comments he made) I find it hard to make him or the US government responsible. But I could be wrong of course.
my own view is that the force [of the beltway brainwash] is strong in this one
2/if the impending financial crisis cuts demand for cars this may reduce the above-MSRP surcharges my preferred new car of the imagined future is currently able to demand - we'll know more later
Speaking to reporters on February 7, Biden said: "If Russia invades, that means tanks or troops crossing the border of Ukraine again, there will no longer be a Nord Stream 2. We will bring an end to it," the president said. A journalist asked Biden how he could do that since Germany was in control of the project, the president replied: "I promise you: We will be able to do it."
Several Twitter users shared an ABC News video of Biden from February 7, 2022, discussing Nord Stream 2 and appeared to link his previous remarks with damage to the pipelines.
1/paragraph order and italicization is garbled above - sorry - last two paragraphs should have been italicized and following the currently italicized text - then my correspondent's reply - then my opinion about the my correspondent's "beltway brainwash" - then my attempt to find a silver lining to the impending financial crisis
Delete2/recently i encountered george harrison's recording of "it don't come easy"
