The year is 2184, average earth temperature has doubled, only a few million people remain on earth. A green-movement managed to travel back to 2022. What are they doing?

They are begging everyone to take the health of our planet seriously! Since people are still casual/wishy-washy about the whole dang thing. Hopefully they provide lots of honest stories and provide evidence of what is happening, alongside assessments from 2184 and how they feel we could have acted and assisted now in 2022. 😅

What a headline

[harpomarxlove]

The author of this piece has chosen to take an article written about Michael Nesmith‘s last days as a platform to bash and insult concerned fans, particularly those who have followed and received information from NP. The picture painted of Nez is clearly a disturbing one, yet the author perpetuates the denial that surrounded Nez in the last few months of the farewell tour. There is no mention of the fact that Christian and Circe disappeared from the tour. No attempt by the author to interview Christian, or any of Nez’s kids. That alone speaks volumes about the agenda behind this article. Also, that the Monkees’ manager, Andrew Sandoval, specifically described Monkees fans who expressed concern about elder abuse as “looking for attention“ is inexcusably appalling. This Rolling Stone article is an irresponsible, ill-researched piece of journalism at best. At worst, it is a stain on the legacy of Michael Nesmith and the Monkees. This is beyond shameful…

I'm very sorry for your loss ♡ and I want to thank you for posting about what's been going on with nez. I've just found your page and I'm floored. please take the best of care today, tomorrow and always ♡

Thank you so much for this lovely message, and for the condolences. It is truly appreciated more than you can ever know. I honestly don’t think I’ve processed everything yet, because it still doesn’t feel real. I can’t even imagine what this must be like for you, having just found NP and learning about what was happening with Nez. 

Over the past few months, I’ve had a lot of anons and people sending in asks mainly about Nez’s former assistant, and I just felt so burned out on everything that it was emotionally draining to even think of answering anything. So my apologies to the folks who haven’t had their questions addressed, but hopefully what I am about to say will help with that. 

As devastated and heartbroken as I’ve felt all day, both those emotions have been outlined by a steadily increasing undercurrent of anger. I never wanted to answer the asks in the NP inbox without being able to completely confirm what was going on. Right now, we may never have that total confirmation, but from what has been said to NP, it appears Melodie was fired near the end of October and abruptly left the Monkees Farewell tour. Subsequently, the following three things occurred:

1. She was not in attendance at the last show of the Farewell Tour at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles. 

2. Micky gave a shoutout to his and Nez's assistants and referred to a woman named Gretchen as being Nez's assistant (no mention of Melodie). 

3. All references to Melodie have allegedly been removed from the Videoranch FB page, from as far back as July (if not farther).

...Most damning, however, is what has happened just recently. First, there was the strange recording that appeared on the Videoranch Facebook, and mere days ago, Melodie went ‘private’ on Twitter. Then there is this, both of which were sent to NP today: 

The top screenshot is of Melodie’s Instagram, on which she changed her profile photo to a picture with Nez. The second screenshot is from her Facebook, of a picture of Nez in the FNB era with the caption “My light xxxx.” And it is the very fact that she would have the unmitigated fucking nerve to post either of these things that is so galling. 

If you are someone who has just been fired from a job where you were accused of elder abuse against your employer, would you post these things? Or would you have to be a psychopath--a cold, remorseless, nasty piece of work who thinks she did nothing wrong--to post these things? There has also been talk of Melodie stealing from Nez/engaging in financial abuse, and no doubt more of this will unfold in the weeks and months ahead as (hopefully) legal proceedings are taken against her. But someone who knows that’s coming would not post these things. Only someone who thinks she’s gotten away with it would. 

So, yes, this is all deeply, deeply fucked up, and most likely only the tip of the iceberg, in terms of all that has happened. I’ve tried to keep folks informed as best I can, but now the only glimmer of consolation is the thought of her misdeeds against Nez finally being brought to light, and her facing actual consequences and punishment for it.  Because Michael Nesmith shouldn’t have gone out like this. Because he deserved better.

The History of Juneteenth

Instagram: @Blackbirdnetwork

[harpomarxlove]

Today is Juneteenth, which commemorates the ending of slavery in Texas on June 19, 1865. Although the Emancipation Proclamation was issued by Abraham Lincoln on January 1, 1863, it was not enforced in the state of Texas due to a lack of Union troop presence and enforcement in the confederate state.

However on June 19, 1865, Union soldiers led by Major General Gordon Granger and his regiment  entered Galveston, Texas to override the resistance to the law and to enforce the Executive Orders. Union Major-General Gordon Granger read General Orders, No.3 to the people of Galveston. It stated:

“The people of Texas are informed that, in accordance with a proclamation from the Executive of the United States, all slaves are free. This involves an absolute equality of personal rights and rights of property between former masters and slaves, and the connection heretofore existing between them becomes that between employer and hired labor. The freedmen are advised to remain quietly at their present homes and work for wages. They are informed that they will not be allowed to collect at military posts and that they will not be supported in idleness either there or elsewhere.”

Since 1865 black Americans have regarded June 19th as the official emancipation day, and on January 1, 1980, the state of Texas proclaimed June 19 an official state holiday thanks to the African American state legislator Al Edwards.
