I get tired of it all. - or - My Adventure among the Twats. UPDATE !!

GO ELON! IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY. GO ELON!

So I got thrown off twatter again. I have a lot to say about my brief twatter adventure. I was Irene Adler. What did I do? As you can see Larry Motuz, I have improved. I did not write FUCK. So there. I wrote this:

You come anywhere near my daughters IN REAL LIFE to enforce your agenda on their bodies and minds, I will rip your gonads off, nail your penis to my front door and urinate on your bleeding spasming body. We clear?

BACK - Some quick observations.

I will add bits and pieces as I process getting thrown off for the third time. I was having fun. So was my audience. I knew writing what I wrote would get me thrown out. I just got so I wanted to puke over twatter culture. Was a stupid thing to do. I will show you - I will hurt me. I thought I gave that baby shyte rage up.

twatter is a stratified society, You have Blue Check people and everybody else.. So I tried to get blue checked. I want to be known. I am the Second Funniest Comedian in Philly. Hat tip to Rose Wild. I do not make the cut evidently. No dice. 

My reader rate went up. I linked articles when it was appropriate. That was nice. In my messages appeared an NEW offer to write short editorials along with all the things they were going to do for me. No payment schedule. 

It is not considered abuse if wombnazis call you 'murderer and low class and uneducated'. If you fight back at the level of insult you are receiving, the abuser rats you out with friends. I never rat anybody out.

Anybody else comment on aol boards? It was the Cadillac of commenting systems. Rather bad service we are receiving today. AOL had real people moderating, not algorithms and censorbots.

I did a gospel type call and response as a social experiment. This was the CALL:

I really am going to write a second verse. Any of the "woke left" can help with another verse. Why I have to do all the work?
Lauren Boebert is so perfect. 

Oh what can we do? 

She's an insurrectionist 

And homicidal too.

This was the RESPONSE: Many were written. Hope I can find them again. I will publish them. They were GREAT.

CharChar@charcharjones  Jan 30@IreneAd17234214 @laurenboebert Boebert is a basic bit*h. Whose husband showed his little inch. She is vile and full of lies. I’m looking forward to her demise. #LaurenBoebertIsATerrorist #ExpelLaurenBoebert

Democratic Attitude Adjustment

Democrats, take note. The time for collegiality is over. Fight unrelentingly against all Trump/Republican nominees and initiatives. Total war and no quarter.

Tell us the truth. Speak truth to power. Jesus wept, be rude once in a while. Trumpus won in part on every one's disgust for the politically correct.

Time all you mofos in Executive Branch and Congress get regularly and randomly drug tested. Sauce for the poor workingman must be sauce for you Suits. Why? You seem incapable of seeing reality - or unwilling. Undignified you say? Stop disrespecting the American people. Why cannot Americans have what Congress critters have?

Do you Bubbletonians not get it that the whole country is sick unto death of the Repubocrat Dempublican Party.

I have been a Democrat my whole voting life. Fight like berserkers or I am Independent. Some of you fuckers voted for Pompeo who is willing, like Bush-Cheney, to make all of us war criminals again. No torture. And respect First Nation land.

If Trump et al and you are going to kill me, I will burn down the whole fucking thing first. Fuck you NSA. It is hyperbole, FBI. Fascism terrifies the fuck out of me. I knew somebody with the numbers on his arm. Mr. Wolstein RIP. 

And now the National Anthem. God, if you send fucking Trumpus a fucking heart attack and fucking kill the bastid, I promise I will never say FUCK again. Maybe.

"Asparagus inspires gentle thoughts." - Charles Lamb

Homegrown Asparagus becomes available in Pennsylvania from April through June. It is perfection in May. I love asparagus so much I am already salivating with anticipation. A list of pick-your-own farms in Eastern Pennsylvania can be found HERE. 

The photograph comes from Petr Kratochvil. 

Everyone has favorite ways to eat Asparagus. My Mother, the Polka Queen, made Creamed Asparagus on Toast. This recipe for Chinese Asparagus Salad is one of my favorites. 

Chinese Asparagus Salad

2 pounds fresh Asparagus

1/4 cup Soy Sauce

1/2 teaspoon Sugar

1/2 teaspoon Vinegar (Cider or White Wine are good)

1/2 teaspoon Salt

2 teaspoons Sesame Oil

Some folks peel Asparagus and you can if you want to. I never do. I just snap it. Use a potato peeler if you are going to peel it. Wash the Asparagus well. Cut the spears diagonally across in 1 1/2 inch lengths. Cook the pieces of Asparagus for one minute in boiling water. Then drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking. Mix all the other ingredients (soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, salt and oil) together in a large bowl. Add Asparagus and toss. Enjoy.

TEXAS Raped This Woman. God Have Mercy. God say Be Calm. Galatians 6:7.

rape
early 14c., "booty, prey;" mid-14c., "forceful seizure, act of snatching by force; plundering, robbery, extortion," from Anglo-French rap, rape, and directly from Latin rapere "seize" (see rape (v.)). Meaning "act of abducting a woman or sexually violating her or both" is from early 15c. Late 13c. in Anglo-Latin (rapum).

Somebody suggested the Anti abortion Zealots do not want this to go SCOTUS. Why? It makes the logical consequences of the Abortion Stalker Law mighty obvious. Every single thing I predicted has come to pass. An innocent Woman was effectively stalked, kidnapped, raped and unjustly imprisoned by StateGov.

It is Gosnell City now in Texas. Dr. Kermit Gosnell murdered pre and post partum infants and called that legal abortion. He kept the corpses in his refrigerator. All possibility of compliance with law is eradicated in Texas. All regulation as to time and safety of procedure is gone. And the wombsniffers screaming LIFE have now created destruction.

If democratic voting will not preserve our civil rights now, and law also will not protect our Family or Women, we are left with no political choice but assassination. Hang Alito and Barrett and Roberts should do it up good. Forget chivvying me FBI, I am too old, crazy and crippled to carry it out. But others are not. It is not just Margery Taylor Greene calling for assassination now. I am a hippy peacenik Quaker GrandMother calling for assassination. I have Daughters. You just might have a another big fat problem uprising on your hands.

Bede's Beat - April 15 marks the 150th anniversary of the death of Abraham Lincoln in 1865

In 1942, Aaron Copland's mind was on the past and the present, because he was commissioned by André Kostelanetz write a piece about an "eminent American" for the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra,

Copland -- like Kurt Weill, who was contemporaneously setting several of Walt Whitman Civil War poems to musical accompaniment -- turned to the figure of Lincoln as a means of explaining to his countrymen precisely what they were fighting for in battle against the Axis.

The result was The Lincoln Portrait a work written for full orchestra with narrator. Over the years, many famous actors and Americans have performed the Lincoln Portrait, including Henry Fonda (with Copland himself conducting), Gregory Peck, Charlton Heston, James Earl Jones, Samuel L. Jackson, Marian Anderson, Katherine Hepburn, Esther Rolle, Vincent Price, Walter Cronkite, Carl Sandburg (in a performance that won a Grammy), Gore Vidal, Margaret Thatcher, Neil Armstrong, Julius "Dr. J" Erving and Adlai Stevenson.

We have a good crowd of intelligent, funny, friendly commenters here who can and do really talk to each other. I treasure my commenters.

TROLLS BEWARE!

I am now banning IP addresses as well as screen names. You cannot come here and irritate, harass, lie about the facts, and trash and sneer at people. Go elsewhere for your kind of fun.

People can have a good clean fight here. Fighting can be educational and fun. Just do not be a dick. And use facts. And the most important rule of all is I am the Queen. Do not piss me off.

Wild Geese
by Mary Oliver

You do not have to be good.
You do not have to walk on your knees
for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting.
You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves.
Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.
Meanwhile the world goes on.
Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain
are moving across the landscapes,
over the prairies and the deep trees,
the mountains and the rivers.
Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air,
are heading home again.
Whoever you are, no matter how lonely,
the world offers itself to your imagination,
calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting–
over and over announcing your place
in the family of things.

I Think I Could Turn And Live With Animals...
By Walt Whitman
from Song of Myself

I think I could turn and live with animals,
they are so placid and self-contain'd,
I stand and look at them long and long.

They do not sweat and whine about their condition,
They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins,
They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God,
Not one is dissatisfied, not one is demented with the mania of owning things,
Not one kneels to another, nor to his kind that lived thousands of years ago,
Not one is respectable or unhappy over the whole earth.

Just poking my head out briefly. I cry now while watching the news. Now we can see the Children dying.

FOR TUCKER CARLSON

Clucker’s like
Rose from Tokyo.
Bold faced because
So not broke-e-o.
Grab his bowtie
And give choke-e-o.
Don’t kill him oh no;
Stop the NewSpeak flow.
And let’s send Clucker
Off to the pokey-oh.

Tucker Carlson and the Fox Network practice stochastic terrorism. 

Stochastic Terrorism 1. The use of mass communication to incite random actors to carry out violent or terrorist acts that are statistically predictable but individually unpredictable. 2. Remote-control murder by lone wolf.
