We need Revolution a la Groucho. Let us march on Boss Tweet utilizing Vuvuzelas and Kazoos.

We need to do a Puerto Rico on our Federal Government. Everybody start marching to DC. It will be the real Straight People Pride March to Rid DC of Crook-eds. Yes that is a pun and I committed it.

We call it the NOTHING IN OR OUT MARCH. I need help. Let us pick a date. Start at your front door and march to DC from wherever you are. Bring friends and snacks. Occupy the terrain.

Bring your dog, your vuvuzela, funny hats, kazoos and feather boas. We go in peace. We are not violent. We are firm. Firm and that is All.

We surround the White House and we let nothing go in or out until Boss Tweet goes back to his tower and stays there. General Strike. Let us find out if our government will fire on us. Time we knew, I say. American Spring. Bribe him with a pardon.

I got thrown off twitter for 'advocating violence.' I kept quoting John Adams President and Founding Father. Of course, I quoted him out of context. But I mean, they keep Donald Trump and his posts are violent. Time to clip wings of organizations creating and profiting from techno- feudalism.

The right of a nation to kill a tyrant in case of necessity can no more be doubted than to hang a robber, or kill a flea. - John Adams

Trump Hoe or Ode to the Deal

Rentboy, rentboy, outta’ sight!
How much do you cost a night?
Snort some candy up your nose?
Put your tongue-tip on my rose!

Rentboy, rentboy, you’re so sweet!
Come and do me when I tweet
Do me when I come to town
In and out and upside-down!

Rentboy, rentboy, doing time.
You cannot have this vote of mine.

Fragments 1 - Christian Witch Cake Hunt or Thou Shalt Not Noodge.

Response to

http://thefederalist.com/2016/07/15/why-are-progressives-on-an-anti-christian-witch-hunt/

Insisting God is a factual factotum and Others must agree with such will be the absolute death of religion as traditionalists know it. Traditionalists know this but they cannot stop themselves from making the same old arguments and trying to enforce archaic inhumane rules. It worked for centuries before Gutenberg made the Bible accessible. Then all Hell broke loose. Heh. The Net is as revolutionary as the printing press.

This Cake Patrol Christianity is being presented as religious conscientious objection. It is no such thing.

What is nonviolent civil or religious disobedience? Gandhi's definition is the clearest in my opinion:

"I have also called it love-force or soul-force. . . I discovered in the earliest stages that pursuit of truth did not admit of violence being inflicted on one’s opponent but that he must be weaned from error by patience and compassion. For what appears to be truth to the one may appear to be error to the other. And patience means self-suffering. So the doctrine came to mean vindication of truth, not by infliction of suffering on the opponent, but on oneself." - Mohandas Gandhi.

If you choose to disobey the law, you must incur the consequences. Not inflict the consequences of your disobedience on the Other. That is not conscientious objection. That is assault.

Jesus counseled following the civil law. Instead, some Xtians have chosen to noodgie people. And act surprised and all hurt and frightened when people noodgie back. As ye sow, so shall ye reap. Galatians 6:7.

America by Gaslight

This Dump Dude has kidnapped thousands of children and put them in camps where they are drugged, raped and some die. Many will never get home because we took them and we are forgetting and have forgotten them.

All the rest is bullshyte.

Let me say it once more...kidnapped thousands of children...they are drugged, raped and some have died. Many of them will never see their parents again.

All the rest is bullshyte. No one is talking about the kiddy camps. No one is talking about the kiddy camps. Am I the only one not sleeping over this?

We are going to have to go to DC and burn The Dump Dude out. Get it. Getting it? Good. I can see no other course. Talk me down. Tell me I am crazed and not prescient.

I love Quakers. They make me want to be a better person. And they tell me how to do that.

George Fox said this about those who quote scripture or Christ unaccompanied by agape love. I am sorely in need of love given current events. I am angry and scornful. Might as well be in Hell. 

The following passage is from "The testimony of Margaret Fox concerning her late husband," from The Journal of George Fox, 1694. In this excerpt, which contains the famous "what canst thou say?" query, Margaret Fell is describing George Fox's "sermon" at the Ulverston steeple-house. It was the first time she had heard him speak.

And so he went on, and said, "That Christ was the Light of the world, and lighteth every man that cometh into the world; and that by this light they might be gathered to God," &c. I stood up in my pew, and wondered at his doctrine, for I had never heard such before. And then he went on, and opened the scriptures, and said, "The scriptures were the prophets' words, and Christ's and the apostles' words, and what, as they spoke, they enjoyed and possessed, and had it from the Lord": and said, "Then what had any to do with the scriptures, but as they came to the Spirit that gave them forth? You will say, 'Christ saith this, and the apostles say this;' but what canst thou say? Art thou a child of the Light, and hast thou walked in the Light, and what thou speakest, is it inwardly from God?" &c. This opened me so, that it cut me to the heart; and then I saw clearly we were all wrong. So I sat down in my pew again, and cried bitterly: and I cried in my spirit to the Lord, "We are all thieves; we are all thieves; we have taken the scriptures in words, and know nothing of them in ourselves."

Members of the Society of the Friends of Jesus (Hicksite Quakers) believe divine revelation is ongoing. And it must be. This formula for living beats the 10 Commandments bigtime.

Simple Formula for Living

Live beneath your means. Return everything you borrow. Stop blaming other people. Admit it when you make a mistake. Give clothes not worn to charity. Do something nice and try not to get caught. Listen more; talk less. Every day take a 30-minute walk. Strive for excellence, not perfection. Don't make excuses. Don't argue. Get organized. Be kind to people [and all other beings]. Be kind to unkind people. Let someone cut ahead of you in line. Be humble. Realize and accept that life isn't fair. Know when to keep your mouth shut. Go an entire day without criticizing anyone. Learn from the past. Plan for the future. Live in the present. Don't sweat the small stuff. It's all small stuff.

We are not the dogs of God but his children. Prophetic religion has to do with relationships, not observances, with awe not belief, with love not guilt, with life not property, With the Way not moralism. Obedience to the Way is indeed of great use if it is freely given, but of no use if it is compelled. - Herrymon Maurer

Gourmets for Mc Govern Banana Cake

Library book sales are the bomb. Yes, I am even political about food. Food is very political.

I found a small hand bound cookbook entitled Gourmets for Mc Govern. It is full of charming illustrations. The only colophon reads "This cookbook has been peacefully and lovingly put together by volunteers for Mc Govern." The recipes do have attribution.

This is the perfect Banana Cake recipe because it tells you exactly how much banana to use. I hate when a recipe says "two bananas." Bananas come in all shapes and sizes. You can mess with quantity in ordinary cooking. Baking needs more precision than that. I give you the recipe verbatim.

Ms. Joan Cantor's Banana Cake

Cream together:
1 cup Sugar
1/2 cup Shortening

Add:
2 Eggs
4 tablespoons Sour Cream
1 teaspoon Baking Soda

Beat well.

Add:
1 cup Banana pulp
1 and 1/2 cups Flour
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Vanilla

Bake at 350 degrees for 1/2 to 3/4 of an hour. Cake will shrink away from the sides of the pan when done.

Meet Joshua Monroe, the Man Who Makes Nude Trump Statues

The Verge has published 11 photos of NYC’s naked Trump statue by Joseph Bareham. As much Trump as you can handle. I liked this one the best.

Bareham is a first rate photographer. See more work at the link.I will not make a joke about the photographer's name...I will not make a joke...I will not etc....

The Progressives chime in and remind me once again how much I despise Progressives, the zealots of the Left.

MADHURI SATHISH
Body-Shaming Donald Trump Isn't
An Appropriate Or Effective Way To Criticize Him

On Thursday, naked statues of Republican nominee Donald Trump — commissioned by art collective Indecline — appeared in multiple U.S. cities, some of which were captioned "The Emperor Has No Balls." But while many people, including the New York City Parks Department, seem to have found humor in these statues, body-shaming Donald Trump in this way is completely inappropriate. He's a bigoted person who has said a number of awful things, but he is not awful or bigoted because of his body.

My dear Lady, I would like to stake him out on an Ant Hill in Texas covered with molasses. Ridicule is my compromise for the sake of order. Dude would not hesitate a moment to evaluate my charms. 

SALMAGUNDI - May 22, 2019

Ben Carson is daily so high he is looking down on the eagles. Congress must be randomly and regularly drug tested. What is sauce for the working man must be sauce for Congress. We need to start with Ben Carson, Steve King, and Kyrsten Sinema.

Tom Cotton is showing us his ass again. Cotton has said he can be opposed to abortion because we live in a democracy.

My dupa is not a democracy. No thank you. I will have lots of hot sex. I will use birth control. If I become pregnant, I will gestate or abort as I see fit. Not as Tom Cotton sees fit.

Anthropologically speaking, Humankind has three strategies  for dealing with unwanted reproduction (births): contraception, abortion and infanticide. All three are practiced in every culture worldwide historically and currently.

Those who restrict contraception and abortion make infanticide, child and maternal mortality inevitable. We have many in vitro examples of this but the one that troubles me the most at the moment is this example http://www.dailymail.co.uk/new...

There is nothing moral about controlling women's reproductive choices by law or by shaming. Illegal abortion and sepsis/hemorrhage in childbirth are the three leading causes of maternal death worldwide. The USA has the highest maternal mortality rate of the developed countries. Women have blood in the fertility game. Abortion and contraception are human rights. Cotton does not occupy the moral high ground.
