Politics and Jabberwocky

Image
  " Jabberwocky " is a nonsense poem written by Lewis Carroll about the killing of a creature named "the Jabberwock". It was included in his 1871 novel Through the Looking-Glass , the sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865). The book tells of Alice's adventures within the back-to-front world of the Looking-Glass world .    Jabberwocky By Lewis Carroll ’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves       Did gyre and gimble in the wabe: All mimsy were the borogoves,       And the mome raths outgrabe. “Beware the Jabberwock, my son!       The jaws that bite, the claws that catch! Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun       The frumious Bandersnatch!” He took his vorpal sword in hand;       Long time the manxome foe he sought— So rested he by the Tumtum tree       And stood awhile in thought.

J. D. Vance's War Promise

Image
  J. D. Vance promised one thing during the 2024 presidential campaign, it was that America would not enter into a war with Iran of the kind that is currently raging. “America doesn’t have to constantly police every region of the world,” Vance told the comedian Tim Dillon on his podcast. He continued: “Our interest, I think very much, is in not going to war with Iran. It would be a huge distraction of resources. It would be massively expensive to our country.” In another podcast interview, with Shawn Ryan , in September 2024, Vance even said that a war between Israel and Iran was in fact “the most likely and most dangerous scenario” for provoking World War III.   Source  Atlantic.com   Graphic   Internet

Wonderment

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.  It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed. This insight into the mystery of life, coupled though it be with fear, has also given rise to religion. To know that what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their most primitive forms — this knowledge, this feeling, is at the center of true religiousness. + Albert Einstein

 " At this point, the shock would be if Trump doesn’t pull the trigger and pretty soon. He’s sent about  half the currently available  ships to the region—they can’t stay there forever—and a very large number of aircraft are on call. And the president and his team of “warriors” are overdue for a dopamine hit of “lethality,” and blowing up fishing boats in the Caribbean just doesn’t give the rush that it once did."

Lust

Image
My humble opinion does not draw a distinction between sex and wisdom - either way you're screwed   Desire how refreshing the scent  Never ending and can't be spent Loathsome to all who repent Life giving without regret Then age alters time and intent Makes room for a life better spent Lust takes many forms: political, economic, carnal, vanity - anything that man desires can be fueled by lust Lust  is an intense  desire  for something. [ 1 ] [ 2 ]  Lust can take any form such as the lust for  sexual activity  (see  libido ),  money , or  power ; but it can also take such mundane forms as the lust for food (see  gluttony ; as distinct from the need for food) or the lust for redolence (when one is lusting for a particular smell that brings back memories). Lust is similar to, but distinguished from,  passion , in that properly ordered passion propels individuals to achieve benevolent goals whilst lust does not.

Ameican Elections Another Trump Threat

Image
    "The federal government has no constitutional or statutory role in states’ election administration, so the call for “nationalization”is an assertion of power that the federal government does not have, a hallmark of other recent White House ploys. Trump’s declaration that “Republicans” could do it may be a suggestion that Congress take action, but it also points to the partisan aims of his attack."    David A. Graham   the Atlantic

“The ways in which federal immigration forces in the United States resemble informal paramilitaries in other countries – operating with less effective oversight, less competent recruits and increasingly entrenched partisan identity... Which is why, I believe, many commentators have surfaced the term paramilitary and are using it as a warning.” Source:  internet news service
