Sad but true, all of it!!! I had a strange thought about television yesterday, I suppose this is as good a place as any to see if anyone else questions this? TV upon creation was only for entertainment and no more, so I think it’s far to see everything on tv as nothing more than entertainment, it’s just there to keep us busy, the news is nothing more than entertainment this explains all the lies, they are all warranted from that perspective! this is why there is always something else taking place that has dire consequences while we are being entertained with tragedies, elections, and cartoons!!!! Does anyone else see where I’m going with this? I think we need become unoccupied and take a drastically different approach. It’s us, we are asking for entertainment so the powers that be are giving it to us. I’m a brutally honest person i try to look at things from a brutally honest perspective. What lead me to this thought was try to help my son to understand what lying by omission is, and how the government tricks us into consensus by leaving out details. We become just as guilty as them because we are asking for government while we are asking our selves why government is so evil. For those i just confused I apologize, but I hope this makes sense to someone out there? I believe this type of deception to be just the tip of the iceberg, I think gets a lot more tricky. The name of the game is free will we asking for tragedy, unhappiness and pain and then we are completely surprised when these horrible things take place.

TBH, I recently "flipped the script." I now see everything (EVERYTHING) as a script; I look for intent and desired reaction; I trust no one and nothing. I keep my own counsel. When people have proven to me that they're trustworthy, I'll read what they've written with a more serious POV. Otherwise, I skim through articles and Substacks to identify trends and current propaganda. I haven't watched TV in years and have recently watched old film noir videos with some more recent shows or mysteries included on free TV on web. The recent ones usually have been recommended as a "must see" for interpreting our society and culture. I've been enormously disappointed in the few I've viewed. They're patently propaganda, skewed, and totally unbelievable...so I understand your feelings.

Virology is a fucking joke!

> Thanks for posting that MeMe-size 4 paragraphs, as it is the best short summary of that evil pseudo-science I ever came across. Worthy to share it far and wide!

Oh, Amy. I think far more than three people enjoy your memes. They were great as always. I particularly liked "A stock market crash" and how we feel after diving down rabbit holes! So funny!! Have a wonderful time in Toledo!!

I spent 2 1/2 years growing up on Taiwan from 8-10 years old. I saw a great deal of Chinese culture. Perhaps this history explains why I've felt compelled in my older years to celebrate Chinese New Year. I'm drawn like a gnat to a flame. I remember the long strips of paper on either side of our front door. Later, my dad set off small firecrackers alongside the paper.

I celebrate subtly because neighbors might think I'm wacko with red paper streamers on either side of my front door and pots of chrysanthemums. I have one big pot of wonderful golden chrysanthemums with the little red card on a stick. I already have the coins and gourds about my front door for good luck. A wonderful way to start the new year.
