Principle 2 (for readers) Whenever you see a quotation given with a full source assume that it is probably being misused, unless you find good evidence that the quoter has read it in the source.

Moving lips tell lies, and wiggling fingers type nonsense. This is the case no matter which medium you work in. Mankind started with “stories” told from one person to another.

For a long time, I posted my 9-11 story every year, on September 11.. This year, the Presidential debate was on September 10, and it dominated “the conversation” on September 11. Maybe we are moving on, and giving 9-11 its proper place in history. · 2001: A Space Odyssey came out in 1968. 2ASO presented a vision of the future. It turns out the reality of 2001 was “terrorists” using our space age technology against us, with devastating results. HAL, the murderous computer, may have been the one prophecy that did come true. · 9-11 was a watershed moment. 9-11 was caused by what came before, and affected what came after. We will never know the full story. 2001 was neck deep in the digital revolution, giving the conspiracy talkers a handy forum for their wonderful opinions. Unfortunately, not everyone has integrity, or good intentions. Whether 9-11 was an inside job, or a terrorist attack, the US government gained a great deal of power. Most of the things they did with it did not work out very well. This has also powered the conspiracy industrial complex. · In the last five years,Whe we have had four watershed events: COVID 19, George Floyd, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and October 7. Each component of this grand slam has similarities and differences to each other, and to 9-11. All five events have had a fruit basket turnover effect. Liberals have become conseratives, conservatives have become liberals, and many have wondered why we need those labels anyway. Hypocrisy has become the national pastime. · This is the first paragraph, faithfully pasted in every year: “This is my 911 story. I repeat it every year at this time. Every year I say this will be the last time. This year is a mess. We are destroying the village to save it. The action part of 091101 was over by 11 am. This quagmire drags on and on. Nobody knows how things will turn out.” · One more paragraph is worth repeating: “I became alienated from Jesus during these years. Once, I had once been tolerant of Christians and Jesus, as one would be with an eccentric relative. I began to loath the entire affair. I hear of others who found comfort in religion during this difficult time. That option simply was not available for me.” After September 11/October 7, this fear and loathing has extended to all popular versions of Yahweh worship. · Pictures from Special Collections and Archives, Georgia State University Library. “This item is part of a collection of images of downtown Atlanta streets that were taken before the viaduct construction of 1927 – 1929. Some of the covered streets became part of Underground Atlanta.” · Notes on the State of Virginia · Notes on the State of Virginia is the only full length book written by Thomas Jefferson.. Written while the Revolutionary War was still being fought, NOTSIV was not intended for publication. The following passage is on page 147. · “It will probably be asked, Why not retain and incorporate the blacks into the state, and thus save the expence of supplying, by importation of white settlers, the vacancies they will leave? Deep rooted prejudices entertained by the whites; ten thousand recollections, by the blacks, of the injuries they have sustained; new provocations; the real distinctions which nature has made; and many other circumstances, will divide us into parties, and produce convulsions which will probably never end but in the extermination of the one or the other race.” · “… Besides those of colour, figure, and hair, there are other physical distinctions proving a difference of race. They have less hair on the face and body. They secrete less by the kidnies, and more by the glands of the skin, which gives them a very strong and disagreeable odour. This greater degree of transpiration renders them more tolerant of heat, and less so of cold, than the whites. … They seem to require less sleep. A black after hard labour through the day, will be induced by the slightest amusemements to sit up till midnight, or later, though knowing he must be out with the first dawn of the morning.” · “They are at least as brave, and more adventuresome. But this may perhaps proceed from a want of fore-thought, which prevents their seeing a danger till it be present. When present, they do not go through it with more coolness or steadiness than the whites. They are more ardent after their female: but love seems with them to be more an eager desire, than a tender delicate mixture of sentiment and sensation. Their griefs are transient. Those numberless afflictions, which render it doubtful whether heaven has given life to us in mercy or in wrath, are less felt, and sooner forgotten with them. …” · Pictures are from The Library of Congress · selah · Cliff Bostock · @SobSax Longtime Creative Loafing writer and editor Cliff Bostock has died after a long battle with cancer.. Hs article for Creative Loafing’s 50th anniversary issue, its last in print, discussed attitudes toward journalism … · I had not heard anything from Cliff in a while. In the early nineties, you could not avoid him. He wrote restaurant reviews for Creative Loafing, and intensely personal pieces for Etc. That article gives you a feel for the voice of Cliff Bostock. · Cliff had a story, and a point of view. Defiantly gay, scarred by the AIDS calamity, Cliff said plenty of things you are not supposed to say. For a while, he was pumping out 3,000 words a week, for anyone who cared to read. “Intensely personal” may not be adequate to describe his work. One person said he would rather walk naked down Peachtree Street, than publish things like that. · It turns out that Cliff has been writing for Georgia Voice. Fagrags are not what they used to be, and they are doing without me as a reader. Cliff has, as usual, vocal about his experience. (March 8 April 6 June 7) Glioblastoma multiforme is the vehicle for this one way journey. · AIDS is a constant presense here. I believe I once saw Cliff write something about getting tested, followed by a staunch refusal to give his own results. Whatever the outcome, Cliff managed to hang on to life until now, which is an achievement. ” I often feel like my mind is hosting a marathon séance, with dead friends constantly popping into my head.” · In the early oughts, Gay.com was an online hangout. Cliff adopted the name Bachelard, and made his presense known. I was PiersGavestonJr … two chatters named after Frenchmen. Cliff said that he met me at a meet-and-greet, but I am not sure. … If you type gay.com into a browser, you will go to Los Angeles LBGT Center.

Labor Day was the first monday of September, which meant Little 5 Poetry Bash. I printed my new poem, and looked at the list of podcasts.. Lo and behold, there was an episode of Noble I had missed.
Labor is a good day for traffic. I set out from Brookhaven at 18:10, for a 19:30 start. I got to the promised land early, and went to Rag-O-Rama. $22 is too much for a used t-shirt. Next stop was a cannabis store. There was promising talk about a new product, which may require further attention. L5PB was splendid, as usual. The core group of poets was there, with terrific product from all parties. Collin Kelley, a mainstay of Atlanta words, was the delightful feature. A lady/dog team came from Cave Springs, to tell a tale of Artemis and Appollo. I kept thinking of Gomer’s cousin, Artemis Pyle, who played in Lynyrd Skynyrd. L5PB takes place in the lobby of 7 Stages. There are two problems. 7S has a collection of bright lights in the ceiling above the speaker. There are also the big red letters MAIN STAGE, which is has too much anagramic temptation (inamorata petting cam) for this addict. In a life hack moment, I solved both problems with a baseball hat. The best way to go home is to take a left onto Colquitt, and go down to N. Highland. After a stop in the Manuel’s parking lot, Noble was coming over the speakers. This episode dealt with the Marsh family story, without going overboard with talk of racism. Finally, after the renovated North Druid Hills bridge, Taco Bell came into view. The last part of L5PB is getting my mystery meat fix. Next month will be more of the same.

DC has a podcast about history, with a series about Israel-Palestine being especially well regarded.. People who follow @martyrmade know that sometimes DC says things you don’t want to hear. The TSMC/DC gabfest … which was well sponsored by commercial interruptions … settled on World War 2. As with many historic events, WW2 has a standard American viewpoint, which you challenge at your peril. DC said things that you are not supposed to say. Many observers are outraged. One wonders how many of the angry commenters actually listened to the show. I heard the show. Some points were reasonable, while others were not. It seems like we are going through another phase of our appreciation for that conflict. This is an ongoing historic process. Some responses are reasonable. As is often the case, you have to read a bit to find out anything. Here is an example: @GrayConnolly “I am finally watching the @martyrmade / Tucker discussion on Churchill. I am not sure who among the critics have actually watched it. As I dislike Twitter pile-ons, I think everyone should watch what X says before X is put in the tumbril. My response as a Churchillian below.” Look at the way America deals with the War Between the States. First there was a bloody war. After about sixty years, there started to be reconciliation between the Union and the Confederacy. Now we are in Phase 3, where the only permitted dialog is condemnation of the Confederates. This same reckoning is going on with WW2, and is not well recieved by some parties. WW1, which created many of the conditions which led to WW2, is mostly ignored. Maybe that is how this is going to go. Vietnam is always a contentious topic, while few talk about Korea. These things too shall pass.

Sunday was the freebie-friendly Summer Shade Festival in Grant Park.. Monday was for pulling merchandise out of my bag, a process known as de-swagging. There were 2 tote bags, 2 pair of sunglasses, 1 inkpen, 1 bottle opener, 1 baseball hat, 1 portable shader, and 1 serving of CHAMPAGNE TOAST hand sanitizer. Later, it was time to go take pictures of painted utility boxes. These make great backgrounds for graphic poems, and there are a couple nearby. Decatur, a PUB wonderland, was briefly considered. Common sense prevailed. Doraville and Dunwoody will have to be enough D for today. Lunch time was approaching. A Whopper® has been begging for me to have it my way. There are a couple in Dunwoody, one of which was down the road. The barely OTP intersection never seems to complete its roadwork, with no sign of a BK. Finally, there is a uber-modern BK on the right, with a sign “GRAND OPENING.” Life is good. Since this is Monday, a new episode of Blocked and Reported is available. The theme of BAR is internet bullshit. Today Jesse is talking about Candace Owens, who is about as fecal as you can get. Candace Amber Owens Farmer is what passes for a 2024 celebrity. Reward ignorance with apathy, and don’t pay her any mind. Jesse had a clip of her recent musings. recent musings. CAOF said that Leo Frank killed Mary Phagan on passover.

Mary Phagan died on April 26, 1913. “Pesach for Hebrew Year 5673 began in the Diaspora on Monday, 21 April 1913 and ended on Tuesday, 29 April 1913.” A broken clock is right two times a day. April 26, 1913</a< was also Confederate Memorial Day. The prevailing story was that Leo Frank was falsely accused of the murder, with strong antisemitic/racist overtones. There was little reason to doubt that story. Then, one afternoon, I stumbled onto the Leo Frank Archive. If you google “Leo Frank guilty,” you will find people who feel that way.

After finishing the weekly notes, I started to download podcasts. Blocked and Reported was available early, which does not always happen. Working my way down the list, I thought to check Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest. Low and behold, the 2024 winners are here. It felt like winning the lottery.

REVOLUTION, n. In politics, an abrupt change in the form of misgovernment.. Specifically, in American history, the substitution of the rule of an Administration for that of a Ministry, whereby the welfare and happiness of the people were advanced a full half-inch. Revolutions are usually accompanied by a considerable effusion of blood, but are accounted worth it—this appraisement being made by beneficiaries whose blood had not the mischance to be shed. The French revolution is of incalculable value to the Socialist of to-day; when he pulls the string actuating its bones its gestures are inexpressibly terrifying to gory tyrants suspected of fomenting law and order. · Ambrose Gwinnett Bierce published The Devil’s Dictionary in 1906, when revolutions were evolving into what can only be termed good, clean fun. AGB served in the Union Army during the War Between the States. The Confederacy, among other things, was a revolution that did not work out very well. As with all conflicts, vast sums of money changed hands. The men who collected these sums are usually far away from the bloodshed. · Walt Whitman once said “That whole damned war business is about 999 parts diarrhea to one part glory.” The same mathematics can be said for revolutions as well. Maybe we should just stop with this revolting discourse, and move on to other R-words in TDD. The next four … RHADOMANCER, RIBALDRY, RIBROASTER, RICE-WATER … hold little interest for today’s conversation. The next two are different. · RICH, adj.

bob dylan PLAYBOY: Did you ever have the standard boyhood dream of growing up to be President? DYLAN: No. When I was a boy, Harry Truman was President; who’d want to be Harry Truman? · Wash Your Hands ·
Lately, I have been walking.. I try to go for a couple of miles, in the morning before the heat becomes obnoxious. Today, I went out New Peachtree, until the MARTA line goes overhead, and I can walk under to another Peachtree. … The spell check suggestion for Peachtree is Peacekeeper. This is the last remnants of Peachtree Road, before it collides with Peachtree Boulevard. Many oldtimers still say Peachtree Industrial, which has a fifties retro feel to it. When you cross the road, you find a sidewalk in front of Peachtree Country Club. During the MARTA construction era, my mother was fond of saying that the golf course was willed to the Catholic Church in perpetuity. Of course, a few feet were shaved off to accomodate another lane on Peachtree. A few hundred yards down the sidewalk, I came to a half eaten bagel, a fork, a plastic box lined with old food, and a lid for a box. I carry plastic bags in my pack, and I got one for this detritous. Of course, there is not a trash can between here and the school dumpster, but there will be something else to put in that bag. There is a law in Georgia. Whenever you hear someone say “wish” in a sentence, you are required to say a bit of commodity wisdom. “You can shit in one hand, and wish in the other, and see which hand gets full faster.” You should wash your hands no matter whether you hope or defecate. There is a more useful version. You can wish in a plastic bag. Or, you can pick up trash, and put it in the plastic bag. One bag will get full before the other. Washing your hands is still a good idea. Pictures today are from The Library of Congress. · Is congress in session? Both of our senators are at the Kamala rally. Sen.

we’re smart and we’re right · @chamblee54 .@ossoff .@ReverendWarnock .@RepNikema .@RepHankJohnson · Where Was Sen. Warnock?
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently spoke before a joint session of Congress.. Many people, myself included, did not approve. I became curious about my representatives, and their response. On July 26, 2024, at 12:20, I called the Atlanta offices of Sen. Jon Ossoff (470-786-7800) and Sen. Rafael Warnock (770-694-7828.) I left this message: “I have a question for _____ . Did you attend the address before Congress by Benjamin Netanyahu? If the answer is yes, then I am deeply ashamed of you.” At 12:40, I called the Decatur office of Rep. Hank Johnson (770-987-2291.) A person answered the phone. I asked the same question. Rep. Johnson did not attend the address. As it turns out, I am in GA05, which is represented by Nikema Williams. Hank Johnson represents GA04. My neighborhood is in a different district every time the district boundaries are drawn. Mistakes are easy to make. At 13:20, I called the Atlanta office of Rep. Nikema Williams (404-659-0116.) I left a message on the machine. At 16:10, Jon Ossoff’s office returned my call. Sen. Ossoff did attend the address by PM Netanyahu. At the time this post was written, I have not heard from Sen. Warnock or Rep. Williams. Neither @ossoff nor @ReverendWarnock has made a comment on X about the address. At 14:48 on Jul 24 @RepNikema sent a tweet that began “I met with the families of Israeli hostages …” The tweet made an anodyne statement about freeing hostages, and ending “the violence in Gaza.” It did not refer to the appearance of PM Netanyahu before Congress. @RepHankJohnson “I will be boycotting Netanyahu’s speech today. Rather than working on @POTUS’ ceasefire deal that would halt the indiscriminate killing & starvation in Gaza, Netanyahu is here, again interfering in U.S. electoral politics with his support for ex-president Trump & MAGA.” In 2003, I was concerned about the impending invasion of Iraq. I sent letters to Sen. Saxby Chambliss, Sen. Zell Miller, and Rep. Denise Majette. I wanted to be on record as being opposed to the invasion. War Letters describes the experience, and has copies of the replies that I recieved. Pictures today are from The Library of Congress..” · warnoff/ossoff calls made at 12:20 johnson call at 12:40 williams call 13:20 · ossoff office returned call at 16:10 he did attend address · @chamblee54I called @ossoff and @ReverendWarnock I left this message: Did you attend the address by Benjamin Netanyahu? If the answer is yes, then I am ashamed of you. I then called @RepHankJohnson A person answered the phone. @RepHankJohnson did not attend the address. · 235 characters · @RepHankJohnson I will be boycotting Netanyahu’s speech today.

The sender indicated replies are not allowed. · This is a message I sent to Kristen Pass. I was not allowed to send a message to Florence Fabiyi. · This has been a NIGHTMARE. I had a “conversation” with Kristen Pass, where she took three and a half weeks to reply to a simple pair of concerns. She only got addressed one of them, and got it wrong. Here is the message I sent today: I FINALLY got a reply. I got a phone call from Florence Fabiyi. She sent a message to follow up. This message said at the bottom “You cannot reply to this conversation. The sender indicated replies are not allowed.” What kind of customer service is this? When I think you might be getting better, you throw something like that at me. · This feature was originally published in 2014.. … · A website called The Frisky still exists, in a dramatically different form. @TheFrisky Hi, former Frisky EIC Jessica here. The chop shop that bought our site never bothered to take the Twitter from me. Go figure. So sad about the loss of all the extremely good work, and also sad that i basically only got to come onboard to see the site ushered to its fall. 4:49 PM · Jun 1, 2018 from Savannah, GA. · @chambee54 Sometimes x has a sense of humor. Seeing Jesse S trending next to an x-crement by Jesse S, where he wonders why we ask questions. · Paul’s Jokes @MoreTwitty Poor Biden just can’t get his foot out of his mouth. Protesters in DC yesterday set fires and burned things, including the American flag. Then the President goes to the Oval Office and says, “It’s time to pass the torch!” · A Simple Question · It started out with a simple question.. Who is on the ballot for President in Georgia? I am beyond disgusted with Donald John Trump and Kamala Devi Harris. I have numerous issues with Robert Francis Kennedy Jr. One possible option is Chase Russell Oliver. The Libertarian Party serves only as a spoiler. Mr. Oliver has a lot going for him. He has been active in the fight against Cop City. Google has not been helpful. The Georgia Secretary of State has not been helpful. I called the SOS office, and talked to a lady. “Mam, can you tell me who is on the ballot for President in Georgia.” “That is on the Secretary of State website” “Mam, that does not work” “What do you mean, it works for me” A second phone call to SOS yielded better results. Apparently, the ballot has not been finalized. We will know later which non-duopoly candidates will be on the Georgia ballot. Pictures today are from The Library of Congress. UPDATE This post starts with by quoting a facebook post. a facebook post. The link no longer works. The former facebook friend … a person who I helped move twice … blocked me. After George HW Bush dies, the ffbf was trashing the former President, using the phrase “I am not going to whitewash history.” I commented that it would be better for his karma to be a bit kinder towards the former President. The ffbf did not like that, and blocked me. · July 19 at 4:26 PM bipoc fae only poll really quick. no white fae need reply. hypothetically if there was a bipoc gathering in a month from now. would you come — Luther Mckinnon “no white fae need reply.” — Steve Alexander: hello – remove your comment please — Luther: which one? — Steve: on my post from the radical faeries page — Luther: Ok I deleted it. I question the value of a group that makes posts that only people with a particular skin color can answer. However, that is your privilege — Steve: I don’t understand what you have to contribute to a thread about a bipoc gathering – so I don’t understand the argument you are making – there is nothing needed of you from you by you for a bipoc gathering…. – so tell me …… – why do I have to spend this time right now messaging you – why – well — Luther Mckinnon: i have nothing more to say – – Steve Alexander: exactly – you have no point other than to interject yourself to prove that you have NOTHING to say of any value – and you dare say I’m flexing my privilege – also the group did not make the post.
