Be
Careful Now
We
are into summer and generally I would not be blogging, but rather outside and
being active as cannot be done in winter.
“Its’ too cold. I’d rather be
here with you. Let’s Snuggle.” As if that says it all. Complete acceptance and comfort, even if it
comes with certain constraints, like limiting myself and accepting the
possibility of being always on. 24/7
availability and becoming what it takes to have company. Winter inside is fine. Creature comforts and modern refinement and
why do I need all that other stuff? Turn
on the computer, the smart-phone, The Cable, and now as a perfect and
affordable add-on, The Big Screen, which is my equal to
The
Theater Room.
It
all converts to what you wish it to be, with the click of mouse or shortcut key
or by looking at a certain focal point, and yes its AI and Robotic and special
technology, all assembled in front of you, one way or another, and I have
blocked it out of my mind that this is surveillance and intrusive and snuggling
up with you for a long winter’s night is not really perfect, will as it is
today, we will make-do, until something better comes along. And for me that something better is
Summer. Cut the cord. Ditch the wife and children or Mistress or
OnLine Date. And most of all, no
blogging.
2016
and I remember the Virginia Slim Ads, where they pronounced. “You have come a long ways.” And this was a commercial display celebrating
Women and how much progress that has been made up to that point when this
advertising style was connected to a pack of Cigarettes. Years later, and I do wonder how many of
those who saw those ads are still alive and are still smoking. Not that I am looking for The-Smoking-Gun, or
have an issue with any of this. Quality
of Life and Equality among gender-designated groups and individuals is
good. Perhaps in my life time it is the
main focus of things.
Elections
in the United States and is becoming the single issue that keeps me coming back
to read and watch what’s going on. New
day and I can be outside and still keep up with what the daily news is about
those things that interest me. Summer or
Winter, and it hardly matters. Much has
changed when it comes to those things that you make time for. But still, it makes me smile when I notice
the contrast in being there in person and paying $5,000 for 4 days at The
Convention so I can soak it all in in real time and say to my yet, unborn
children, “ 2016 and I was there.”
“I
was there and they elected First Lady President, who as it just happens to be,
A First Lady.”
Makes
me smile, as I realize I was on hands and knees just yesterday, eradicating the
grime and stink of yesterday. Was a
built up situation. Accruing over time.
No sense to blame it on one thing or another, no reason to think it
could have been done without you. Gender
and non-white, then add other specifications and labels, and it gives us
grounds for change, and has me thinking.
“What will I be missing, because I am old and my time is almost over
here and now?” Flying boxcars. Self-driven.
Miniaturization and nano-second small.
Invisible
to the naked eye, but no worry. We have
more porn available than ever before.
Getting down to it, and its gender specific. “No Porn.”
IN the coming years, I can see an all Women-Congress and laws on the
books.
“No
Porn.”
Changes coming and is astounds me.
Entertainment
and Democracy, merging. Confluence on
one stream of thought flowing into a constructed reality that in this time, is
brand new. “ Vote For Me.” Been 3 years of having this message placed
before us. We can’t get enough. And so it is our everyday reality. Everywhere we turn, we are being audience
addressed and targeted and known.
Reality TV and these people learn to use the media to influence and
persuade and advertise. It is
constant.
And
here we are. Down to two candidates and one
is from the Show and business side of things.
The Boardroom and Reality TV.
Entertainment, but now it’s the real thing. Showtime and popular party conventions. Choice has filtered down and for a couple of
months we will be in The Zone. “Vote For
Me.” Is how we do it.
Making
history. On my hands and knees and the
floor and wall-space around me is clean.
Not to say we still don’t have Messy Business to attend to, but I feel
better now. Clear choice. One or The Other. Duality simplifies things. Or so it seems.
Was
visiting the dying blog site where I have spent the last 10 years. See where a few good people are blogging and
talking politics. I found it
interesting. We don’t talk much
anymore. Site attendance dwindles. Most of the old voices are gone. But still, was just today I saw how people
were talking and it was all about The Election.
This inspired me. Write a
blog. Post it. Go outside.
And
by the time we finally vote in November, my NFL team with name: Seattle Seahawks will have played 3
games. Win or lose, we are better off
because it all goes on side by side.
Brutality sports and Porn and The Elections. First Woman President in these United States,
and that is a real possibility. Up-grade
and more plastic as we smash the glass ceiling and make real change and
progress.
Women
in power and it will be better.
“Madame
President.”
For
some reason I keep replaying this, and wonder why, if this is true, why isn’t
there a woman’s NFL league? Puzzles me.
The limits and the endless possibility.
Write. Post. Move on. Never saw it coming. The Death of Blogging. But seems as if it was a good idea. It just didn’t materialize as I once thought
it would. And so I am saying my
goodbyes. Tomorrow beckons and is
something we embrace.
A
world without Porn.
Amen.
Please don't say goodbye. I have a life to deal with but I will always drop in. I've been watching British TV about Native tribes of the West Coast. I can't remember you mentioning them but certainly some of them are doing OK. Their ideas of relationship with nature are becoming popular.
