Take notes. Hurricane Helelna destroyed our homes. We're a long way from an ocean. This ugly boat is a pornography. But how does it affect me. Losing your home will affect anyone. Let us away with tourism. It was an awesome storm. This freak show is not unlike a floating Ramada Inn. Many Americans love canned trips so they can see what they want to see. What is wrong in tourism is what is wrong with America. The Trump flotilla is next. I was once a sailor. I sailed tall sailing ships. I never knew these repugnant, abhorrent, revolting tin cans just threw their garbage and their waste into the water. They just dump it all. On our tall sailing ship, we would go way around, so we did not have to even look at it. Same thing in my little Appalachian village. After the hurricane, my neighbors and I were left with houses torn apart and crushed. Dead wildlife. Dead dogs. We are still finding body parts in trees. So the tourists show up. They have a lot of nerve. They love quaint Main Street. So Main got cleaned up because our government said so. The issue is economic. But the issue is also cultural. The Blue Ridge is ruined. Trash. Garbage. The air stinks. We could not drink the water. And you get a chocolate on your fluffy pillow. We now have raging forest fires, no housing for locals, the town is now a tourist trap and the price of everything has doubled. My response would be an air force. We are still living in garbage. I wash clothes in a garbage can. The Blue Ridge is rubbish.

Take notes. Google is the black plague. I have articulated and written that for the past twenty years, Wikipedia must have a financial stake in the arrangement with the algorithm. Google manages to place Wikipedia first. They subvert the algorithm that they made in the first place. Wikipedia cherry picks. Google drives the cherry picking. Especially with SEO, and their subjects get defined by people who have no idea whatsoever what they are talking about. What would drive Wikipedia into cherry picking. I once had the misfortune of watching Google work. Their video I saw produced by Google, was about a scenario where a few video staff members (with equipment) fawned over their supervisor's Rolex watch. That was it. That was the video. A group fawning over a watch someone bought for 25K which is a pornography.

Kevin Rose just loves his little watch. Turn Google into something that has meaning like pawing over a watch and presenting that as a product Google fools around with. What a waste. I find them intimidating and mean. I deleted Google from everything. I loath saying this but Bing seems to have no financial arrangement with Wikipedia. Bing has never characterized me as a set of lies that people thought that I abused publishing. Wikipedia has a field day riding on the back of Google, the enforcer. Publishing abuses itself. Are Google and Wikipedia so connected that one is the other and the other is the other. Google is the King for everybody except me. They are not welcome in my house.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH NYT’S COLUMNISTS

Take notes. What is wrong with you. This piece where you guys get together to moan and whine about IT. It is a criminal. A rapist. Trump is not a human being. He’s an It. Stop sitting around lamenting. It’s intolerable. The despot is an IT. It is a rapist. What more do you need to know. I have daughters. What you are doing with this is omnisciently normalizing IT. Rapes. Women.

How can you do that to us. I see enormous investment on the part of columnists who think there is some light. Let’s not scare the horses. IT’s not worthy of a name. As opposed to darkness. I remove IT’s humanity from me. It is drool. I wipe it from my face. This is so not about Rome, election pain fetish producing no new ideas but what’s he going to do, what’s he going to do. What do you think a rapist does. IT rapes. You ignore that at your peril. I got my family out of this mentally ill country. I will not be held captive by a rapist. I am not compelled to follow him like MAGA. Hitler rose to power as a cult of death. Tens of thousands of homo sapiens left Europe. Their homes. Their families. Their jobs. To begin again.

I am telling everyone I know to leave this immoral culture. Polgreen uses the word stupid. I am not allowed to use the word stupid or they kick me off this platform. It’s so unfair. It reduces my voice to tame little lame comments. Follow the rules, Barrus. They have the voice. All you can do is twist in the wind. But I will, indeed, speak to the enormity of corruption. Corruption is what the rich impose upon us in their quest for white, white workers so we marginalized (which is what moderators do. I am writing for moderators ten thousand miles away. NYT does not want you to know that. might work for a bunch of suits. You do not allow radical insight. Columnists whine and complain. Rape is vile. It’s never mentioned here. America so richly deserves an IT as it casts aside morality of any kind. What about your daughters. You are normalizing rape. You make me vomit.

Take notes. I am a radical. Not a democrat. Not a republican. There are no independents. They employ the same political and cultural infrastructure -- how things work -- that the rest of us are compelled to use. Climate: Not a word. It's the Trump go to for climate change, a hoax. Americans are in denial. Why. Not a word about that. Save the American Dream. The American Dream is flat-out vanished. Is America is a corpse because it has a fetish for illusion. The American people still believe in the goodness of Gotham. Hollywood's Gotham is urban decay on steroids. Not one word about how Hollywood's cultural prostitution, carved from graves for advanced rot. Criminals rise to power. The word criminal is not to be found. There are metaphors for the word rapist. There are metaphors for the word crook. There are metaphors for the word deviant. You will not find the word deviant here because the republican (small d) party cannot bring itself to believe it's leader (ownership culture) is aberrational. Even the bad word sex is an economic negotiation. Or it's rape. You get to pick one. Not both. They take a deviant, and they normalize him as a leader who struggled. Another idea they avoid is based on the word individual. Individual is Americana. This is about the rise of Trump. And what did I learn. The word nothing has a metaphor, too. Vacuum. They are telling us America loves Trump. Genuflect. Now, the truth. Scratching heads. Suddenly, perplexed. More questions. No answers.

Take notes. Caleb is a lucky guy. Curiosity drives us to a film set where people actually live. With all that stuff. Caleb has a voice. That is what a camera is, a voice. That is what a video is, a voice. The spaces that reflect us are accumulated voices. My own voice talks to spaces. Horses. No whispering. Homo sapiens have been living in horse stables since day one. My roommates were Arabians. I owned two changes of clothes, a sleeping bag, a camera, and a toothbrush. One book (mine). One dirt bike. I moved into a stables. I got to talk to the horses. This is going to sound silly. But horses laugh. I slept and worked in the hay loft. The guy that owned the place was a voracious reader. I had just published a novel about two brothers. His own brother had died a year earlier. And he was having a hard time with it. I had been complaining, I could not find the room I need to write because my writing involves getting up and walking in circles and yelling at walls. I'm autistic. The horses never seemed to mind. And I had a captive audience whose opinions on things, were the same as mine. Duh. Caleb found his calling. Most folks never do. The issue of privacy alone can get complicated. To see the personal behind the door. Oh, I own one of those. I like Caleb's socks. The leaves are not swept away on the outside deck. The towel on the oven door could be the opening of a book. I wonder who plays the guitar. Where's the laundry. It's the bike that really got me. I want that awesome bike.

Take notes. After I put my kids on the flight out of America, and all the crying had slightly ebbed, I had to sit in the airport for about an hour because I could not get up. I knew I had done the right thing. America is just not a place to raise kids. Life is giving them whip lash. This piece has little to do with keeping your papers organized. It's insulting that Americans would even think that. It's denial, folks. You do not know how to raise children, and you are leaving them with a toxic planet. Because you do not care. I am autistic and do not understand many of the rules I follow every day. I avoid the police because they will kill me as they are so easily threatened. I have never had so much as a parking ticket. America will not help in protecting my children. If we are going to slide into a civil war, and I think we are doing exactly that, I don't want my children anywhere near the Great American War Machine that focuses on identity. Our public policy is a pornography. Doing away with the Department of Education, or hobbling it, is a great plan to keep the marginalized in their place. Will there still be schools. Or indoctrination centers. The America you fear is coming at you like a trainwreck. I want my kids off the tracks, off the grids, I have already taught them how to fight. I want them educated. I want them to know how hatred runs the world of men. I want them to be able to recognize the power of authority, and to always sit where you can see the door.

Take Notes. Potato Head Patrushev is a high-ranking Russian who is right under Putin, and he has made it very clear that Russian foreign policy is based on the perception that America is on the verge of collapse. That, too, is how Potato Head Putin sees it. If Patrushev didn’t, he would be dead. Patrushev himself has killed hundreds of thousands of Russians. I agree with Patrushev. The States in decline are asymptomatic. Peter the Great murdered millions of Russians.

Given an inappropriate context.

I had two Russian friends in St Petersburg who were being drafted into the military. Right after the bigger war started, Russians couldn’t kill all the people who were leaving. I found the boys a ride, and explained all about how cramped it was going to be with both of them (students) locked in the trunk. I had met them the summer before in New Orleans. Having the time of their lives. They asked me to help them make a video of Louisiana. Before the authorities could throw me out into Bourbon Street where I was living out on a balcony. I find New Orleans to be a clinically depressive on quaaludes and razorblades. A mafia scam in every pot in town. My second selves remind me that this very gay environment where I was sleeping on the balcony, while New Orleans just walked home drunk as a wet hyena.

They thought it was all adventure. I used that to make the video.

From what I hear, there are still Scandinavian Magic Shows going on, but Russian immigration is a very wild card. Putin upped the ante on himself, and Americans simply do not understand what it takes to begin another revolution in Russia. Are you mad. Crammed into a trunk on dirt roads. It would be unnerving to anyone. Russians always have the same exact war machine. They play the same tired old war games. There is an important war going on beneath the oceans. They know where we are. And we know where they are. Despite tech that was supposed to work soundlessly. My imagination tells me that something went the American way which is always Lowest Bidder.

America has entered its midnight run. We just don’t want to know about it. What about the price of beer. It remains amazing to me Americans don’t really care. About anything. During the Revolutionary War, there were thousands of Americans who put their tails between their little legs and fled. Back to London. Americans are not heroic, brave, or resolute. They jump into a fearfulness that fits them like a pair of winter long johns. Bravery is for stories. I’m autistic, and I see most things in a different way. When the dust settles, Putin will not need to attack North America. We will do that for him.

When Americans hear the arguments for executions, they are thinking it will never happen. Fort Sumtner has been replaced by a big bad box of fun things, codes. You better run faster, folks. Gay families with children need to get out now. When he comes for your children, what are you going to do, fight. You don’t have it in you. He has removed thousands of children from their parents and families. We still have some of those kids in institutions. It’s a psychotic punishment.

I don’t know any gay parents who live in cages with their kids. Executions are for people who talk back. I talk back. It is what I do. My kids wept. Get on the plane. Americans want peace in our time. I don’t care what Americans want. What Americans are going to get are concentration camps. They are now constructed.

Some very nice person got me into one. I took photos. I am afraid of German Shepherds. There are no trains to the camps. Just a few dirt roads. The camps were built for pandemic emergencies. Guarded by the military. Because that is how it works. Go grid by grid. – Tim Barrus

Take notes. We all want to know, is it worth it. This question haunts us as the Internet becomes a utility. The tech oligarchs are not keen on the idea. One of the things FDR did, was bringing electricity to rural America. The people who got electricity last, knew they received electricity last. They could drive into town and see everyone had it but you. The Internet came last to rural America. Let's see what we can do with this and throw the bums out. It didn't work, so now they have focused on -- not kicking people out -- but in who can replace them with the proper messaging. One brick at a time. Journalists, gatekeepers, and opinion folks are flailing around with Let's Normalize Him when in their troubled guts they know he's laughing at you while he has his babycakes revenge of the entitled. They already own all the money. What more do they want. Do they really need the crumbs. Klein and Applebaum are playing a game where the intelligentsia cannot admit that they dropped the ball. They seem to think that the civil war will be a soft landing because it will have to be at least partially constructed by (who else) the intelligentsia. They articulate how surprisingly ordinary the opposition is. They go from We Will Never Ever -- to -- We Might in less than one tenth of a second for the pause. Pretty quickly. What choice do we have. We can't all move to Vancouver. I got my kids out while I could. You cannot talk the talk if you are unwilling to walk the walk.
