I’m no psychic but, I knew 2020 was going to be a mess. I felt it.

There’s a cosmic rhythm and, we don’t own it.

Everything flows out and in; everything has its tides; all things rise and fall; the pendulum-swing manifests in evrything; the measure of the swing to the right, is the measure of the swing to the left;rhythm compensates.”

The KYBALION

 

First: Facebook always asks, “What’s on my mind?” when you sign in. So today, I will start all my Blog Posts with that answer. Am I wrong but, did I wake up this morning and hear the President of these here United States declare Civil War on its citizens but only in the Democratic-controlled States?  

Second: Did I also hear the Acting Director of Homeland Security Chad Wolf, a Republican, state that federal troops aren’t the President’s “personal” police force? And, that this was a total political ploy by Trump? Or should I believe the same Chad Wolf, the current Acting Secretary of Homeland Security, justifying the use of Federal Agents? By the way, why are all our government heads “Acting”? What is this a movie?

Third: Banks are closing branches telling people they can only withdraw a limited amount of their money? Many stores won’t take cash now, claiming they don’t have enough coins. 

 

 Silent Parade, was a silent march of about 10,000 African Americans along Fifth       Avenue starting at 57th Street in New York City on July 28, 1917.

Fourth: Black lives do matter when it comes to the survival of this country. And why is it called a stimulus check and not a welfare check?  If anyone was fueling this economy is was “the poor.”

Fifth: Policies to block women from working at home during this pandemic. Florida State University wants to force parents, especially Mothers, to choose to keep their job or take care of their kids. What kind of nonsense is this? Sexism on the sly, proving to you that men in power only want babymaking machines to keep them out of the workforce.  And, single Moms stop having babies out of “wedlock.” Don’t you just love that word? If we can’t lock you into marriage, you will pay for your deviousness.

Laura Nelson and Mary Turner

In May 1911, Laura Nelson lynched in Okemah, Oklahoma.

Let’s Just Reinstate Slavery: That ok with you?

Don’t you find it interesting that the enslavement of Black people is once again the genesis for another Civil War in America? Except, this time it’s the Republicans against the Democrats? It seems Lincoln has switched sides from the grave.  White Supremacists, Naxis, and paid mercenaries are “gunning up” walking around, at least in Arizona, dressed in Army- attire with open-carry guns strapped around their hips and American flags flying from their pick-up trucks?

Marchin’ to War Tunes.

Tell me, has the United States crashed and burned or what? School me if I’m wrong. You all who didn’t vote for Hillary because you said she was the lesser of two evils when you knew better or were too lazy feeling a little bit responsible.  You can be sure that you allowed “evil” to rule. 

Any other questions about who you should vote for in this Presidential election? Not voting means Trump-voting, right? You still have time to get your mail-in ballot and buy your book of stamps before they stop printing them or close down all the post offices.

You can’t run, and you sure as hell can’t hide. Don’t even open your mouth and tell me you don’t like Biden.  You don’t have to like him.  I don’t like jello but, if that were all I had to eat, then jello, even the nasty green one, is for dinner tonight.

And, most of all, Wash Your Damn Hands! And, Cover Your Nasty Face!

What is the problem!

Didn’t people already learn this? And don’t touch my dog either. We aren’t 100 percent certain they are carrying this virus, or you might leave it on their fur. Stay back!
 
In closing for the rest of today, they’ll be no more TV except for my daily walk with my 13-year-old Granddaughter over Zoom or perhaps a funny movie.  And no computer except to play my game, “The Age of Empires” (how ironic),  “The Sims” or one of my “Rescue” games. Along with some vanilla yogurt, I’m good.
