TERRORIST DATING

Tubularsock was sitting in his top floor corner office in his underground bunker overlooking Washington, D.C. from Oakland, CA (see: The Bunker Tour) pondering another Saturday night. The fact that they come once a week just show how often one has to think about Saturday night.

Now that old adage, “Home Alone On A Saturday Night” comes to mind. Well, why for so many is that a bad thing? But it appears to be for many and that leads them to seek out company of some type. You know ….. A DATE!

And if you can find A DATE what are your options for a “good time”?

Well for some it still is bowling …… yes, Tubularsock is repulsed by that idea too!

Dinner ………. ahh, really? Tubularsock can’t think of eating across from somebody that he doesn’t know. Tubularsock can do THAT at any diner and not have to pick up the tab!

A Movie? OH GOD NO! Not another fucking movie. Most movies are well ahhhh ….. shit! Good vs. Evil, Love Conquers All, Lost Love, Death, well you know …… shit!

Dancing ……… well with the music at 2300 decibels you don’t have to talk!

Tubularsock knows that you have done all of the above and more.

So WHY NOT get modern and be on the cutting edge for a change?

And that is where Tubularsock’s NEW TERRORIST DATING DATE comes in.

LET TUBULARSOCK KNOW HOW IT GOES.

I MEANT WHAT I SAID, OR NOT!

I MEANT WHAT I SAID, OR NOT!

Oh sure, suggestions and innuendoes from an idiot are normal.

Especially when that idiot is Donald Trump. It would have been a lot more clear if Donnie had just said

“shoot the bitch” but even an idiot knows a threat against a President or a Presidential hopeful is AGAINST THE LAW.

So here we are again. Lets all talk ad nauseam about what Donnie meant and didn’t mean. Isn’t that what all diversions in politics are about. Not about issues but about innuendoes! Policies are boring but innuendoes are ripe for “reality TV”!

Now when Killary laughed saying about the assassination of Gaddafi in Libya “we came, we saw, he died” it was all good fun.

Or when “WE” Americans (YES, IN OUR NAME) blows up a wedding party in Afghanistan we call it collateral-damage. Oh well, shit happens.

But an idiot’s flamboyant speech …….. NOW THAT IS SERIOUS!

And as Ron Fournier said in his article in The Atlantic, “. . . it almost doesn’t matter what Trump meant to say, because of the truth in this maxim about leadership: What you say isn’t nearly as important as what people hear you say.”

So when Killary said in her 2008 campaign against Obummer in response to the question of why she didn’t drop out of the race because of her low odds of winning the nomination she responded with, “We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California.” (in 1968)

“Her advisers quickly explained that Clinton merely intended to note that this was not the first primary campaign to stretch into the summer, not to suggest that Obama might be assassinated.” (Anne Kornblut, Washington Post 5/24/08)

BUT …. “What you say isn’t nearly as important as what people hear you say.” Oh yes, signs of a good leader.

ALL FOR ONE!

ALL FOR ONE!

Ok. Raise your hand if you already realize that the voting machine that can’t produce a paper trail to be checked is a voting machine that is ripe with the possibility of ILLEGAL VOTE MANIPULATION.

Ok. Are you by yourself right now? Do you feel just a little foolish with your hand up?

Don’t be concerned. BE CONCERNED if you didn’t raise your hand!

EVERYONE has heard by now, but may not have paid attention, that VOTING FRAUD is as common as sliced bread and yet nothing is ever done. At every election cycle there is a flurry of mained-stream-media reporting and an orchestrated outcry of dismay from political-types only to be forgotten until the next voting cycle. Much like election finance reform.

EVERYONE knows that it is “child’s play” to manipulate an election by just using a screwdriver! Ironic isn’t it …….. being screwed by a screwdriver. That is down right screwy!

Yet, nothing is ever done about it ……… just what’s going on?

When voting machines are brought from the warehouse where they are stored between elections and placed in the polling stations there is ample time to “adjust” them to perform anyway one would like.

Polling places are seldom set up with security to watch over the voting machines after being placed in the polling station. Or even in the warehouse where they are stored for that matter.

And a knowledgeable “hacker” can even perform their adjustment while technically in the voting booth while “voting”.

So an election can be rigged without much effort.

Yet, nothing is ever done about it ……… just what’s going on?

Now it is a known FACT that the most secure voting and counting system of all is hand-marked paper ballots, publicly counted by hand at each precinct on election night before ballots are moved anywhere. And yet this is just not done.

So if you had a problem and you had a solution to the problem but you picked THE PROBLEM as your solution ……… just what would an intelligent person conclude?

Voting machines have a mechanical preference?
Tampering is a skill set that provides employment?
Who wins really doesn’t much matter, it’s all one party.
Elections will be over soon and we can go back to regular TV.

Oh, don’t bother with your answer. Tubularsock has picked it for you.
No really. You’re used to it.

You remember the old adage, “You don’t get something for nothing”, right? And in today’s world you don’t even get something for something! Whether it’s job numbers or economic growth it is all a shimmer, an imaginary glow built on shifting sand. And as often than not your castle will take a hit if not fall down completely.

So you listen to the predictions and the forecasts and you think that you are “in the know” BUT the lie is deep and the entire monetary system is just an agreement. It is NOTHING or EVERYTHING by agreement.

That is why you don’t have a chance ……. you can save and end up with nothing, you can spend and end up with nothing, and you can go deeply in debt and end up with nothing. Pretty much it’s NOTHING!

You see we have been trained to believe that having something is important and we have been trained that what we have is the definition of who we are. And yes we have fallen for it.

We NEED the new iPhone, car, house, mate, child, clothes, shoes, hair style to define OUR POSITION in the lie in which we ~~live~~ survive. And the first sign that you have been suckered into this labyrinth is when you agree to wake up at six AM take your car and sit in a long, slow-crawling line of cars inching along to cubical land where you sit on a computer all day doing meaningless tasks until the magic AGREED upon number of 5PM.

The magic AGREED upon number of 5 opens the door that allows you to go out and get in you car and sit in a long, slow-crawling line of cars inching along back to your bed.

Oh sure, there are variants to this scenario but the results are the same …….. you live in slavery to your THINGS!

Because you think your THINGS define your POSITION and your WORTH in the society in which you ~~live~~ survive.

And here is where the depth of OUR conditioning shows through the cracks. Tubularsock has been observing a group of “homeless” people who “work” a particular corner in the city in order to make their income. It is THEIR corner and they “work” it in shifts from 6AM to about 7:30PM every week day and 9AM to 4PM Saturday and Sundays.

Each one of them have an iPhone and they seldom sit during their shift but rather are active walking the line of cars that are waiting at the stoplight. They are friendly and polite and on task. And from Tubularsock’s vantage point VERY successful.

But the point is THEY ARE AT WORK! A job that is not any freer than a cubical except for the tan. They are following a tried and true business model and are successful and they have the “stuff” in clothing and iPhones to prove it.

And in truth, may not even be homeless but rather “self-employed”.

Now some people enjoy their work and some people don’t. But the bottom line is the less you define yourself as what you do and what you have and what you are programed to believe you need the greater real freedom you feel and THAT is the way out of slavery …………

SHITINSHITOUT!

Tubularsock has always wondered how it would be to live in a country which had an educated and informed electorate but Tubularsock has come to the conclusion that the possibility of that will NEVER come to pass ….. EVER.

Not in the United States of America …… that is a given.

In former-times the learned had to read from parchment texts by candlelight and write with a pointed feather. In even earlier times they “wrote” on the walls of caves. And “In the beginning” they “wrote” on stone tablets using a chisel and hammer but in truth you’d have to be stoned to believe “those” stories.

Our society has the ability to be informed IN DETAIL and in REAL TIME to information 24/7. And information is just pouring out of every electronic orifice we have in our pockets, on our desks, in our cars, on our laps BUT the populous knows less now than they ever have in the history of our nation.

Why is that? No really ……… we can Twitter and Blather, we can Facebook and Flickr, we can Pinit and Postit, we can Linkedin and Pinterest and if all else fails we can Google Plus. You’d think we’d know something, right? WRONG!

Now, not that EVERYTHING is pointless in our “information age” it is all backwards and you have to know how to read it. Here is a clue. By the time “Madison Avenue” has come up with the proper catchall phrase or jingle for an experience it is too late. So even the term “information age” isn’t informational but the opposite, just like “democracy” isn’t, or “precision targeting” isn’t, or “humanitarian war” isn’t!

And take note, the catchall phrase or jingle LEADS the experience. THAT is what “Madison Avenue” was created to do and is still doing but not under that archaic title.

Now it’s called psych-ops. See how that works?

Thought control has been in operation for so long that it now appears to not exist. Even the government, religious and academic institutions BELIEVE their own crap! And leaders lead from their own concoctions of their own crap ………… the witches brew has taken root!

So just sit back, eat another organic pretzel. Have another cup of chai tea and ruminate on the true meaning of this:

About five days ago the New York Daily News reported that they had talked with the “esteemed forensic linguist Professor Rob Leonard, who gives expert testimony about language and writing in murder trials” and had him analyze THE RECENT TWEETS OF KIM KARDASHIAN to determine if it was she who had written them.

Yes, you see Kim posted a “nude selfie” (no, that isn’t the newsy part) and there was a flurry of criticism of her which led her tweeting a series of “humorous” tweets bashing Bette Midler, Chloe Grace Moretz, and Piers Morgan.

Now, Tubularsock hopes you are following this …….

Many didn’t believe that Kim was “behind” those tweets and she responded, “Wait I can’t believe people thought Kanye or Khole hacked my Twitter. I swear I’m funny too!!!”

Well Tubularsock does have to mention here for clarification that, Kim IS “funny too” and that’s an understatement. Just in case you had become lost in this drama not to have notice it yourself.

twitter-Tube-TWITTER (l to r)

The good Professor pointed out after extensive review of all the Tweets that the term “hey” is often used by Kanye but NOT by Kim, the hashtags were all in lowercase letters but Kim usually uses ALL CAPS or Caps The First Letter Of Every Word while Kanye uses ALL CAPS, no caps, or just the first word capped. And finally “Twitter” is always spelled “twitter” by Kim but always capitalized by Kanye.

So the verdict is …….. the envelope please ………. Kanye hacked Kim’s TWITTER and made the “funny” bashing comments!

So this is what the “information age” has become and WE ARE ALL collateral damage!

This is the time of year that Tubularsock hides in his top floor corner office in the underground bunker overlooking Washington, D.C. from Oakland, CA.

Not from fear but from dread ……..

Tubularsock always puts on his stealth attire when he has to leave the bunker and you wouldn’t recognize Tubularsock on the street because the S.F. Bay Area that Oakland is a part has so many diverse hair styles Tubularsock isn’t all that noticeable. No, really.

But just in case Tubularsock always wears a ski hat with blinking green lights with its top cut open and people don’t even look up as Tubularsock passes on his two-wheeled bike. It’s rather a live-and-let-live community in general.

And hell with the homeless black dude that rides his bike pulling two bike trailers with a boom-box and two huge 12” woofer speakers blaring and adding that to all his belongings with everything painted GOLD to match his gold painted top hat, suit coat, pants and high top tennis shoes ……..

Well shit, Tubularsock even begins to look normal!

Tubularsock seldom goes into retail stores. Just have no interest and most of the stuff is priced so high that Tubularsock figures the “liberal-press” has buried the true story that the Chinese slave laborers in the sweat-factories have been given a huge wage increase! Fucking workers!

At least here in America when we asked the Black Africans to leave their homes and come to America we put them to work 24/7. They were good workers too. In fact, so good that the powers to be set up a system that still exist today. And keeps those Black Workers behind bars working in order to keep them from having to associate with all those welfare cheats!

Seriously! If you recall, those Native Americans would run off when our early Christian farmers used to attempt to “train” those savages to work. And none of them spoke American! Go figure.

But that was then and we are here now and things have improved.

And today in America we even love Mexicans! No seriously!

Right after Donald Trump proclaimed to build a wall to keep those raping Mexicans out he in his next breath proclaimed that he had a great relationship with Mexican waiters. They were his homey-amigos.

And just like Americans, no one even noticed any incongruity. That’s because we are ALL, EXCEPTIONAL!

Now, just watching truck after truck after truck of dead pine trees being brought into this city to be decorated and lighted up for a week or two and then tossed to the curbside to be taken away by trucks and trucks and trucks just brings merriment to Tubularsock’s soul.

And just like Americans, no one even notices any incongruity. That’s because we are ALL, EXCEPTIONAL!

But one can not miss the parade of stressed out smiling people marching in and out like zombies to every sales event in order to PROVIDE HAPPINESS which isn’t paid off until May, 2016 if you’re lucky. Which then keeps them all sitting in cubicles day in and day out for years and they call it their life’s work.

And just like Americans, no one even notices any incongruity. That’s because we are ALL, EXCEPTIONAL!

But what if ………………………..

This year ………………………….

LIBERATION.
