Here is an interesting Story that is posted in Today's Guardian UK about Twitter [the Famous Waste of Time Posting Uninteresting Crap using 140 Characters or less of Boredom Company] buying TweetDeck [an even more boing Company]. Take a look at the Story:
My immediate question, again, is WHO CARES? How many People around the World actually have Investments at stake in either Company? I know that, from watching Television [at least in the United States] one might get the impression that everyone is a Day Trader or Corporate Magnate, but I have a feeling that this may not be true. I know for myself, I try and keep my Day Trades down in the . . . say . . . $0 to $0 Range each Day. [In other words, I am not Rich enough to INVEST] Oddly enough, I am guessing that few People reading this Post invest on a regular basis either.
Which leads to my less immediate [or "secondary"] question, WHO THE HELL ARE THEY PUBLISHING THESE STORIES FOR? I could just be totally cynical [How unusual for me!] and believe that they publish these Stories to make those of us without Millions and Billions of Dollars to invest feel inferior and/or worthless, but I am not convinced that this is the case. But, what OTHER REASONS could there be?
Is it possible that such Stories actually serve to encourage us to participate even more vigorously in the LIE THAT IS OUR WORLD GLOBALIST CAPITALIST PLANTATION? [Was that too strongly to the Left?] This, may have a bit more weight behind it, as my insane Theories tend to go.
Think about what the Tacit Message is from the Story. Is the Message, "Give up because you'll never be this Rich"? Or maybe, "Why aren't you doing this too?" Much of the Pop Culture Propaganda circulating throughout the World Centers on making the average Worker believe that they are missing out on the Great Joys and Orgasms of Life if they are not Rich, Selfish, and manipulating the Lives of Others. In reality, outside of bland and biased Studies done by Businessmen and Economists, there is not much evidence that the Rich are actually any more satisfied with their Roles in the Global Economy than the Poor Slobs actually doing the Work. It appears that the Propaganda is designed to stimulate your interest in working even harder [Is that possible?] to accumulate the crap that the Rich have.
Now, my last [or "tertiary"] question, WHAT DOES THIS ALL MEAN FOR ME? Not much. To be honest, I really couldn't give a fuck about who Twitter does or doesn't purchase, as long as it is not actually purchasing Human Slaves. [Are they doing that yet?] The transactions of the Rich and Famous [Fuck you, Robin Leach! - Remember him?] are of little interest to me unless they are stealing my Soup [I know that's coming!], or bending me over a chair [FIGURATIVELY] with some horrid Price Increase from the Corporations that they own.
I am hopeless, and a Lost Cause to these POWERFUL AND POTENT PEOPLE. And, as for the upcoming Royal Wedding, I hope some Hippies crash it and, Vomit on the Royal Wedding Cake. [Yes, I am mean]. TTFN. [I actually hate those abbreviations, but this one made my point so well]
This is one of my Latest and Greatest Theories [Aside from my Belief that Donald Trump is an Alien from another Hideous Casino-Bad-Toupee Planet]:Nudism, sometimesalso referred to as Naturism, will end all Wars, Racism, and other Competitive Aggressions. [Cool Theory, no?]
Nudism has a unique History, which actually has very little to do with the Perverse Notions [YOU SICKOS!] that People have about Nudists. While Modern Homo Sapiens [Yes, I believe in Evolution . . . Sorry] have been Nude on and off throughout History, the initial point at which People deliberately engaged in "Nudism" is up for debate [though many sites claim to have specific dates - which all disagree - what jerks]. However, here is a wonderful [Euro-Centric] piece on Nudist History:
As with most of our Recorded History, no one knew that they were "Properly Nudists" until some Europeans told them so. So, when the Gnostics paraded around, engaged in their Religious Practices in the Nude [they were actually a little like Orgies], they were not actually "Nudists." Later the Europeans corrected them, [and their "Unholy" Behaviors] and now there are published "Ideals" that Nudists/Naturists have been given by "Civilized" People:
From [the Least Reliable Source on Earth] Wikipedia:
Naturist Ideals [From Vivre Nu: Psychosociologie du Naturisme, Marc-Alain Descamps]:
Rapport with animal life — having an ecological conscience Rapport with the environment — being an environmentalist Health — bathing in the sun, fresh air and water (balneotherapy, thalassotherapy, heliotherapy), Yoga, Tai Chi. Healthy food — moderation with alcohol, meat, tobacco, drugs; seeking out health foods and adopting healthy eating to prevent obesity. This can extend to teetotalism and Vegetarian or Vegan eating habits. The latter two also interface with having respect for the environment. Agriculture — avoiding unnecessary fertilizers and genetically modified organisms. Against factory farming Medicine — should be natural if not entirely homeopathic Psychotherapy — as a way of effecting personal changes Rapport with other humans — equality and respect. An anti-war, pro-world government stance Pedagogy — children should be respected as equals instead of being patronised Spirituality — man is no more than an animal, and nudity has a place in religion. Dress — nudism, as clothes are unnecessary, unhealthy and build social barriers. Sports — to develop a healthy body. Arts — should be to develop individual talents, not as a means of financial exploitation Tourism — to understand other peoples' culture, concentrating on camping to remain close to the earth. Liberty — no one has the right to tell others or their children that they must wear clothes. Pollution — less clothing to manufacture and maintain means lower carbon footprint.
Not every Nudist/Naturist follows these Ideals Religiously. Most Nudists adhere to at least a few [they are all Nude, however]. These Ideals might constitute a "Hippie's Creed" to some, but to these Naked People, they are simply a Natural Way to Live. And, for the Dope Smoking Sex-Crazed Fiends who are looking for Naked Orgies, you will find Nudism/Naturism very disappointing. Since a Safe and Healthy Environment for Families, Public Sexuality IS NOT part of most Mainstream Nudism. Put those Sexual Appetites [and Sexual Toys] away! You ARE disappointed, aren't you? You should ashamed of yourselves!
The Video above is an oddball Video supposedly about being Naked in the 21st Century. More appropriately, it looks like some demented and perverted Videographer's Notion of an Asian Nudist Paradise. These are the Grandiose Notions that most People [like YOU? . . . likely? . . . possibly? . . . potentially?] tend to carry about Nudists. Nudists are actually nothing like this [save that they are Nude]. Here are some things real Nudists are more like to do:
Or maybe engage in something Artistic like this [ACTUAL NUDITY]:
Here is a Link to an Actual Nudist Library [Do they really READ there?]:
That was actually totally irrelevant to my point and therefore TOTALLY GRATUITOUS, but I enjoyed Posting it, nonetheless. Tell me that you didn't too? Yeah, right!
So, here is the REAL ACTUAL ESSENCE OF MY THEORY. Nudism will save the World for the Following LOGICAL [Not Perverse] REASONS [In no Particular Order or Priority]:
It is extremely difficult to be Angry with someone who is standing in front of you Totally Nude.
It is next to impossible to conduct Wars with Totally Nude Soldiers.
It is next to impossible to hide Weapons on one's Person when one is Totally Nude. [Don't over think this one!]
It is next to impossible to hide Sexual Arousal when one is Totally Nude.
Suicide Bombers are easily spotted when they are Totally Nude.
Being that most People are Self-Conscious about their Appearance, Nudity might encourage many People to either become Comfortable with their Bodies, or Work Harder to Change them for the Better.
If we were All Nude, we would see that others are just as Pathetic as we are.
With everyone being Nude, that Perverse "Curiosity Factor" that causes some People to mindless pursue others, would be gone.
If we were All Nude, one might think twice before getting a Skull [or something else equally bizarre] Tattooed on our Ass.
A Nudist Workplace would be much more interesting, and your Deficient Boss [Guess where?]would hit on you a lot less.
If we were All Nude, the Term "Slutty Clothes" would be moot.
If we were All Nude, then Women would always know when a Man had brought a Condom with them on a Romantic Outing, or Gruesome One Night Stand.
If we were All Nude, Religious Services would take on entirely new Dimensions [This is going to piss off some People for certain!].
If we were All Nude, the Internet would have much less Porn, and lots more Information [This is really going to piss some People off!].
If we were All Nude, Fashion would die, and we would All stand more equal in the World.
If we were All Nudists, we would save Tons of Money by not having to buy lots of Clothes! [We would only cover ourselves to escape the Cold].
If we were All Nudists ___________________________________ [Add your Contribution below in the Comments].
Now, I expect that many of you now want to BE NUDISTS. In fact, I am certain that my brilliant [I could be brilliant sometimes!] Theory has convinced you to shed your Clothes and be Free of Convention [or whatever that makes you "Free of"]. So here is a wonderful Link to help you further your Future Nudist/Naturist Lifestyle:
Lastly, please learn all you can about the Etiquette of Nudism BEFORE you begin your New Nudist Adventure! Rude Nudists Suck! And, please do not send me Pictures [What am I saying???] of your Nude Adventures, because that would reduce your New Nudist Lifestyle to nothing more than a Grandiose Oddball Odyssey. No one wants that for you! Be Happy! Be Free! Make the World a Better Place! Go Nude!
Coming later on Today, a nauseatingly melodramatic Post on why I believe that being a Nudist/Naturist might just save the World from Destroying itself. I am doing this Post as a kind of "Tease," so those of you who actually give a Rat's Ass will come back frequently to check on it. In the meantime, take a look at this Nudist/Naturist Page [WARNING: ACTUAL NUDITY ON THIS LINK!!!]:
I told you there was Nudity on that Page! Some of you may not have believed me! Quick question: Did anyone feel like starting a War when they visited that Page? I thought not! Stay tuned to this Blog and I will have a more extensive Post on why Nakedness may save us from ourselves!
For those of you who do not like the Saga of Britney Spears, or other Pop Music Icons, here is a Video of a Desmond Dekker & The Aces re-released Single [1975] from the Album The Israelites [1969]. I hope this makes you Dance Naked in your Cereal while you listen to it [Take plenty of Photos for your Grandchildren]:
Desmond Dekker [Born Desmond Adolphus Daces] was a Jamaican Musical Performer who preceded Reggae Superstars like Bob Marley, Jimmy Cliff, Peter Tosh, and so on. If you do not enjoy this, take your Pulse, you may be Dead.
For those of you who actually like to listen to someone who is both Intelligent, and Interesting, here is a Treat. It is 3 Part Series of Videos of a Speech by Dr. Noam Chomsky, a well known Political Activist [you know this already], and Super Famous Professor of Linguistics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
If Intelligent Speech causes you to convulse and long for reruns of American Idol, then I advise you to avoid watching these Videos. Also, be aware that the Quality of the Sound in the Videos is not perfect. But even so, it is nice to enjoy the Wisdom that Dr, Chomsky bestows upon the Audience:
There is a Question and Answer series of Videos that goes with this as well, but you can easily find them by going to YouTube and entering this Zany Set of Search Terms "Noam Chomsky April 2011."
I hope that all my Readers enjoy this Post. Dr. Chomsky is a personal Hero of mine, and I am happy to present his Speech in place of my own Disjointed and Occasionally Psychotic Rants. Again, remember that all Posts on this Blog are best enjoyed in the Nude [Be prepared to see this frequently as I am an Advocate of ending Wars and Violence via Nudism/Naturism]. Peace and Compassion to everyone.
Perhaps I am just Dense or Developmentally Disabled [I am both], but I wonder why I no longer see numerous headlines about the HORRIFIC NUCLEAR DISASTER IN JAPAN? In spite of the Brave and Optimistic language used by Japanese and World Regulatory Officials BEFORE the Story disappeared from the Headlines, the Information seeping out is less than encouraging.
The Japanese Government says today [in a small print Story on CNN.com International Edition] that it will take Nine Months to shut down the damaged and leaking Reactors at Fukushima. Again, pardon my resounding ignorance, but who the fuck decided that Nine Months of leaking Radiation into the Atmosphere [the SAME ATMOSPHERE that I happen to live in] is okay with the Peoples of the World? At least one of those Reactors has Plutonium in it, [No, this is not a new Element discovered by Disney, it is one of the Deadliest substances known to Man], and I find the attitudes of the Japanese and World Leaders leave me a little . . . ANGRY.
It is odd to me that, when Civilians in Libya were apparently being killed by Fashion Nightmare Muammar Gaddafi [apparently, there are Billions of spellings of his name], the World Community responded with Planes, Missiles, Rhetoric, and Bombs. I know that this little Nuclear Disaster only threatens to eventually kill HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF JAPANESE PEOPLE, or maybe more, and potentially others around the World via the drifting Fallout, but could we at least get the same level of Response that we got for Gaddafi?
Is there maybe some reason why the Interest in the Japanese Nuclear Disaster has died down? Could it be that the Nuclear Industry has "Ramped Up" their Lobbying Efforts around the World? We all know that they put the Interests of People and Animals and Environment BEFORE PROFITS [Don't have a Stroke, I'm being Sarcastic], but could some wires have gotten crossed and sent them into a Lobbying Panic?
It seems that most of what Nuclear Industry Officials have focused on, is the potential Liability Exposures, and how the Bad Publicity is going the effect the Industry. I can see the reason for their concern. I can't see the reason why that concern has not been more for the effects on People, Animals, and Environment. [Are these Time Travelers from "SkyNet"?]
Please be aware that reading the entire Story in Business Insurance Magazine may induce a Coma. But, scan over it and see where the main points of the Story lie. Compare this, if you can, with the type of information being presented to the World by the Mainstream Corporate Media. Do they Match? [Oh, a Game!]
If this horrible thing that is taking place in Japan is killing People right now, then something should be done. Judging by the lack of detailed information coming from Japanese and World Nuclear Energy Officials, I have doubts that we can trust them to protect the interests of World Health and Safety without being PESTERED by we lowly Potential Victims.
So, here is my worthless and ignorant suggestion for what should be done. First, write to the Following People and tell them that you are completely dissatisfied with the Japanese and World Response to the Nuclear Disaster in Japan. Express all your concerns in non-threatening language [No mention of Guns, Takeovers, Kidnapping, or Revolution--that might get you a visit from some "Men With No Names"], and ask them how you can assist them in addressing your concerns. Here are some useful Links to accomplish this:
Additionally, let me suggest that you contact a number of Nonprofit Organizations that deal with Advocating on Issues related to Nuclear Energy [Take a guess about whether or not I am going to post Pro-Nuclear Energy Links--also this list is not exhaustive--Google around for more]:
At this point, I hope you have been encouraged to put down your Beer, Wine, Cocktail, Tab of LSD, Marijuana Joint, Dildo, Bible, Gun, Porno Magazine, Sports Magazine, Fashion Magazine, Package of Goat Cheese, Tuba, iPod, Money, Penis, Vagina, Hair Brush, or whatever, and get busy contacting these People to Advocate for a Nuclear-Free World. If not, ignore everything I've said here.
If you like the Foolish, Childish, Naughty, Arrogant, Disjointed, Brilliant, Nauseating, Boring, Anal-Retentive, Naked, Artful, Dense, Tasteful, Tasteless, Purple, and other Adjectives, nature of the Posts on this Blog, please Share the Link to the Blog. The easiest way would be for you to Strip Naked in Public and start screaming the Link's Address repeatedly, until the Police arrive. Or, you could simply Tweet it, Share it on Facebook, Google, ICQ, or whatever Social Networking, Instant Messaging, Smoke Signals, Native Drumming, or other High Tech method you are addicted to. You could also Email it [PLEASE!].
This Blog is actually building up to the deployment [Sounds militaristic, no?] of an Entire online Informational Portal and Public Service Business that is being developed with a number of Compassionate and Social Justice oriented, Labor Friendly, Environmentally Friendly, and other GOOD, Goals in Mind. The more People that visit it and catch my Particular type of Mental Illness, the better for the World.
Now, here is a totally unrelated Video for you to watch and marvel at:
If this doesn't stimulate your Mind, I have no idea what would. Send me more Readers if you don't want an Asteroid to hit the Earth and kill us all next year! Please!
