Trump/Hegseth want women out of combat

The Generals know their soldiers. Mental health issues manifest during transitions. Some of what seems like a simple transition of duty stations can result in mental health issues, sometimes severe. 

Radical changes in daily living will result in additional complexities to already complex military mental health. 

I don’t see that personal identity in the way soldiers groom themselves should fall under scrutiny so long as they are clean and serving in uniform. There are going to be problems. The grooming issues will result in morale issues.

The Generals and Admirals must maintain order resulting in readiness. I trust them to under the morale of their soldiers and protect them from ridicule. Hegseth wants a dress code, basically. I don’t see individuals going to Leavenworth for five o’clock shadow. 

As far as women in combat? I think the women need to be good and equal partners. For some reason they can’t? The only determining factor on a case by case basis is whether or not the unit is compromised by women or men in combat. If readiness and safety is working, I don’t see a problem.

The complaint by women is about advancing to higher ranks which require combat experience. I thought we moved well past issues of stereotypical ideology.

It is my understand…

…Trump thanked and praised the military. That is a sea change. What does he want?

I never expected this meeting to be publicized. Now, every one who cares from domestic terrorists to every other country on the planet will be creating profiles of the leaders of our country. 

It was one thing to have them all in the same room, but, providing the public with pictures? 

I hope they all enjoy their time in the states and get a chance to visit their families before returning to their responsibilities.

The USA military is not for publication. Did they have to sign permission documents for that picture? 

I don’t know when the insult to our national security will end. Congress sure doesn’t seem to care about it.

Putin is already engaging in brinkmanship.

At this point these fly overs by Russia are incursions. They are not benign. They are a violation of sovereign airspace capable of spying. Putin is pushing his luck because he believes the Free World resolve is weak. How many decades have Russian jets played brinkmanship with the Free World? How many times have those jets been met with jets defending their land? But, after all that Putin still toys with destiny. Amazing.

Trump cannot fire the military leadership

These valuable men and women have recourse from a psychotic president that does nothing but spew hate into the country and around the world. Every person Trump assaults verbally with threats and ultimatum have recourse through the tribunals, the criminal courts, the civil courts, and the United Nations including The Hague.

Yes, it can be done. 

Trump is a human rights violator who is well known to everyone on this planet. He is facilitated by a Republican majority that is as corrupted as he is and grows increasingly corrupted.

NO ONE TREATS THE USA MILITARY LEADERS AS IF THEY ARE NOBODY. 

Trump and Hegseth are cowards and their statements prove it. 

They bend a knee to communists and take it out on our military.

Conservatives

One conservative I trust is David Brooks. In a conversation with his liberal friend he stated meaningful conservative dialogue is in the minority in most media he frequents. That may be the case, but, how about addressing those folks caught up impoverished without an interest in reading or somewhat sophisticated conversation? They have their attention captured by tabloids and the WWF. There is that culture that thrives among the impoverished in this country. I don’t mean that as an indictment so much as a frustration.

Uniting the country again under the same reality will require some heavy lifting to bring right wing dialogue, no matter the form, to appreciate the truth without myth or distortion. What I find appalling about the dual truths that exist is that the lies were easily nurtured by the man who was president and is again. This time more toxic than the bleach he queried to its benefits. That is simply not healthy and Americans died within that paradigm because they believed the lies were the truth.

We are still there. Not Covid in its virility as before, but, the lies are still propagated as the truth and the pain instilled by those lies is boiling over. 

In Southport, North Carolina a man in his boat approached people enjoying the shore and fired. That is simply heinous. My thoughts go to those suffering, but, also to my own family who have been married in the public park that is by the waterway. The ceremony had a beautiful day and was completely lovely. What are they thinking and feeling with blood splashing on the shoreline where they once celebrated?

The level of contemptible violence is taking an uptick since summer is turning into autumn. What, if anything, is being done to end the hatred and reward the truth with an embrace by those estranged from it? Nothing? We are left to wallow in misery forever?

People of different belief and persuasions need to get along otherwise the powers that be will see us at each other’s throats. This time though. It won’t be a fight over the economics of slavery. It will be about who lives the truth and who is its enemy.

The man that attacked the Mormons…

…inside their own religious sanctuary is waging a war. There is a lot wrong with that attack, but, he wasn’t crazy; he was however crazed.

Where did he even get the explosives to create IEDs? Granted the crazed people that kill Americans find a way to build bombs no different than the Boston bombers. But, the ingredients to most IEDs should be out of reach both in the substances available and the amounts allowed to be purchased by a given person. 

That sanctuary went up in flames in minutes. 

The murderer had to have surveyed the grounds and sanctuary in order to kill and destroy the way he did. Suspicious people need to be noted, photographed, and reported to authorities without second guessing that decision. The police rather know what is transpiring to look into elements of fear than to pick up the pieces afterwards.

“See something, say something.”

Fear is not a good commodity in any community. Police do care. That’s their job.

“Is not consistent with our community’s value.”

Brendan Carr is directly responsible for the dual reality in media broadcasts in this country.

He needs to be replaced. He wrote a chapter on the FCC in Project 2025. He is placing every American’s life in danger for even allowing the hate speech coming from the Oval Office demonizing those that find Trump inconsistent with our country’s values. 

This might come as a surprise but Trump is not allowed to use the presidency to foment hate causing disruption of domestic peace. It is in his oath of office. Brendan Carr is in violation of his oath of office in (1) looking the other way, (2) providing a hate filled platform to inspire violence not just by Trump but also by right wing media.

Improvised explosive devices?

ATF established the evidence of IEDs at the mass murder at Grand Blanc, Michigan. How did that man know how to make IEDs? Did he create those bombs? 

This is not us. This level of violence is not the USA.

There is a huge issue here. Governor Whitmer  touched on it. The people qualified to investigate the tragedy has to compose the facts in reports and the public has to accept that without septics and inflammatory stories. 

It occurred to me there is a huge alternate reality in the USA. It has been created for political purposes to CONTROL the hearts and minds of people. That alternate reality must stop. It is creating huge problems that are out of control. The people wielding this violence believe in their missions and it is all based on a lie.

How are those of us that live with the truth and in the world of reality supposed to defend from an alternate reality? It isn’t possible. 

Burnt to the ground, 4 dead, 8 wounded.

The fifth death was the gunman. The first responders are as good as it comes. They were on the scene within 30 seconds of the 9-11 call. 

This is America now. The hate has been turned loose, by design of President Donald John Trump. Anyone keeping track of the domestic deaths under his watch? There are 11 human beings missing from the Florida detention camp and even in the face of that reality appellate courts are passing the plans through to reopen hell. It is human rights abuses.

Paring down the military

What do you think will happen when this group of generals are gone per Trump’s plans and new ones are brought in? A lot of adverse outcomes. It takes time to build expertise in military operations. Just imagine for one minute being captain of a nuclear power submarine that is part of the USA Triad.

What happens when in this rotation Lieutenants become generals? The expertise of the military diminishes further and further as the officers become younger and younger. What happens when the top brass are all millennials with little recognition of the enemy such as Putin’s Cold War? 

There is a learning curve and I am not just talking about book learning. There is a learning curve to know your enemy and their tactics. How much danger are your enlisted men in when the top brass has about as much knowledge about the enemy as them? 

How is recruitment going? We all know the current status of the military is a volunteer force that wants to be there. What happens when enlisted people begin to realize under this DOD there is no career in the military in 20 years of service? What happens when recruitment numbers fall to very low levels? What are the preferences of Republicans when it comes to to recruitment? Do they prefer it or do they rather a mandatory service of all Americans? 

Republicans want to raise every child in this country. Mothers are baby machines with little nurturing ability. Children aren’t really children soaking up a public education, they are youngins. They need a full course of military service out of high school in order to be a good American.

So what are the goals of the Trump White House for the greatest military in the world? A military with mandatory service for two years with minimal leadership, artificial intelligence as the Joint Chiefs, with no more 20 years retirement. As a matter of fact once Hegseth has completely dummied down the military the only soldier will be robots as they are the most reliable that take orders without question and never ask for a pay raise. Forget about the health care. 

Republican ideology about anything is demented as Trump. Trump has had a stroke. He has also had a heart attack. Trump’s ideologies are as misguided as his business ventures. Do we want our military to fail? Then throw the numbs out and make the Republican majority in Congress do their jobs. Currently, House and Senate leaders have forgotten how to negotiate. It isn’t as though the Democrats have forgotten and are seeking noble changes to the continuing resolution; it’s just that no one else is sitting down to get the job done. 

What is the answer to this? 

Think about it.

Stop playing online gambling.

Instead feel good about where your money will do the greatest good.

Give the money to your candidates runnng for office.

Hegseth is committing a severe national security breach.

(Click here)

The first breach is placing all the Top Brass in one room at the same meeting.

The next security breach is attempting to impose his civilian ideology on our military. 

The next national security breach is even thinking about removing or demoting generals in the field. 

(Click here) 

Hegseth and Trump are civilian with inappropriate civilian leanings and priorities and need to be sued personally and the USA military as well as the members of the USA Congress that are acting irresponsible toward the national security of this country. 

Sitting on their laurels watching the parade go by is insubordination to the USA Constitution. All these massive changes require legislation not the whims of political ideologues. 

Trump wants to replace human beings with computer programs so he can determine life and death from the Resolute Desk. All Trump needs are Starlink satellites.

There is a problem with the Comey inducement.

It is malpractice and fraud. It will probably be dismissed. 

No American can be charged twice even using the same docket number. The judges don’t issue these documents. The prosecutor prepared the indictments.

Why diss the United Nations?

Trump spoke harshly about the United Nations when addressing the General Assembly. Well, I suppose if Trump wants to commit fraud and voter suppression having UN Election Observers would be inconvenient.

The USA elections have been observed before. 

Governor Pritzker is correct.

(Click here)

I don’t see a vandalized drop box for reason to call a national emergency. Such an action can be handled through published reports in the media as well as letters by the local authorities to the electorate. Affected voters can be provided provisional ballots to be determined if they are duplicate in this incident. This is not a national emergency. It is a prosecutable offense.

The state of emergency and deployment of the VOLUNTEER National Guard as a domestic military unit is a political strategy to seize control of the 2026 elections. It has been a strategy before but never invoke in Trump’s presidency. It was dreamed up by Steven Miller. 

The Faux Dictator

Thank you Chancellor Merz. Others are noticing the American people are under siege by a faux dictator. 

The circumstances could change if the fate of the country wasn’t abandoned by a Republican majority that rather kiss the ring of racketeering rather than the Rule of Law. 

The collusion between the Republican majority million-billionaires of the three branches of government was quite unexpected. The judicial branch has been holding the line on the racketeering, but, the Supreme Court is happier living in Cloud City and unable to see it through the dense Earth warming clouds.

It is all lawless attitude. There is no scholarly anything. They simply made up their minds they were untouchable under Trump and decided the rights of the people were not important.

The Hate Agenda

Peace Lilly

When looking across the Trump agenda it all reflects hate. The hate manifests in different forms, but, it is all hate based. 

It is not who we are

As a country, nor ever have been. Hate is an alien that has come to be among us. It hasn’t spread like wildfire, but, it has fomented fear of it.

One can’t state he is the peace president when he hates everything and everyone else. Retribution is not an expression of peace, especially when it is such a hideous act.

The retribution paradigm is an expression of the banana republic and beneath the dignity of the USA Constitution. 

Feels like old home week.

National Security Threat

Holding a meeting with every senior officer in the USA military in one place is a threat to National Security. Hegseth needs to be sued by concerned citizens to stop this irresponsible ideology. 

This meeting is not only expensive but proves the degree Hegseth is unqualified to serve. No leader would carry out such hideous meetings as this. Hegseth is a danger to the USA.

Proof

Republicans are interested in power and not the people. Republicans won’t negotiate while their journalists treat Democrats as if unfair in the burgeoning government shut down. 

A journalist wanted Democrats to commit to destroying healthcare only to beg for changes after the fact. Really? 

I do not appreciate journalists that do not respect Democratic leadership. If the journalists can’t ask intelligent questions then they don’t belong in the press pool.

What happened to, “Leader Jefferies, what exactly does the American people need to know about changes necessary to bring Democrats on board?”

Comey will beat the indictment

 This is retribution for the fact his daughter JUSTLY won her job back. Now, Trump will state he is in daher because Comey is stalking him through his daughter. This is racketeering by a sick man’s administration. 

The children need to be returned to their parents.

Every word he spoke is the truth. Ukraine in its desire to be neutral on a border to Russia was completely disarmed. There was no doubt Ukraine wanted no conflict, but, only commerce. That neutrality was ignored by Putin with an invasion in 2014 intending to annex Crimea.

Russia then set out to take more land and in 2014 and 2015 a rebel force was organized and armed in Donbas. 

The Russian military then built a strategic bridge into Ukraine through Crimea to begin an invasion to bring Ukraine under control in 2023.

It has been an amazing military transformation in Ukraine. A transformation they found to be necessary. Ukraine is a reluctant warrior. But, nonetheless it is strong and resolute. There are no other words for Ukraine except respect and honor. From the first day the Russian tanks rolled into Ukraine there was no doubt among the people what would happen next.

It is a cancer that grows systematically.

Corruption and racketeering is the institutionalization of wrong doing. 

The Truth is our champion.

Justice

The sense of justice is universal. It isn’t socialism, it is the understanding there is justice within life that corrects the path of wrong doing. Americans go forward with clear expectations of life’s promise of justice within the USA. It is what they signed on to. When that common sense understanding is violated; Americans feel it and rightfully so.

ALEC is a big part of the injustice citizens are realizing. It has methodically acted against Americans in favor of privatization of government for far too long. It has demonized the USA Constitution. The federal level of education added a life blood to every state in this country and maintained our great universities. It is wrong to dissolve it.

ALEC removes justice from the average American life as it attacks the federal tax system to dismantle it. After it and Trump is finished dismantling the USA Constitution it will attack the states governments next.

ALEC is based in corporate greed. I think it is part of what is going on. As proof, a president cannot dissolve a federal cabinet position by executive order. Why would an organization endorse such an illegal and immoral act?

The insured are correct.

The reforms are capricious. It is simply wrong to have an insurance company carry out their own arbitration. There has been a growing movement to replace court hearings with arbitration that automatically puts the insured at odds with any outcome. A 90 percent arbitration rate favoring the insurance company by those paid by the company is corrupt without even looking at the process and FACTS. Florida’s arbitration system needs to be audited by an independent judicial review panel.

Where are the FEMA assessments regarding these and other properties? 

Racketeering?

Acetaminophen has its issues, yes? And with less and less research dollars who is to say otherwise except the manufacturer? Who is the competition? How are they doing? 

If Trump can affect Wall Street with day to day crashes aren’t we back to a similar dynamic as tariffs? What fun!?! And what CEO wouldn’t pay big bucks for them to just shut up?

The thing about this is the lack of expertise making big decisions. Doctors must have something to stop a 104 F fever. What is the recommendation other than children’s Tylenol? Ice baths? That seems like something a parent without contraceptions could afford.

RECOMMENDATION: Check the tabloids to see what they recommend for a child’s fever. That might explain a great deal about the Trump paradigm of delegitimization of Wall Street.

QUID PRO QUO: Billionaire backers. Who donated what and how are they doing? What are the kickbacks? Guaranteed it’s all there.

RFK had a billionaire in particular. What’s up? If I recall she pressured RFK into backing Trump. Why? Muskitis? 

The EU, too. The European markets can show this stuff up before the USA. Is Europe banning children’s medications, why and why not? Children are a soft targets. Why does Trump want to appear to be ahead of the curve on child wellness other than the obvious?

At last count…

…eleven human beings are missing from Florida’s interment camp. That is not okay.

Noem is a nightmare.

No one exerts cruel circumstances on people and gets away with it. It is human nature and history is a witness. 

The social temperature in the country needs to be dialed back. Get the National Guard back to being neighbors and friends without uniforms. 

This entire “hate paradigm” is out of control. 

Kristi Noem must resign. She is causing too many problems. Trump needs to ask the Democratic leadership for a recommendation to replace her. 

First Amendment Rights…

…apply to the military press briefings, too. Hegseth is attempting to circumvented the demands of the USA Constitution and its amendments. 

The attacks on ICE and the five officers where three died are not a surprise to me. The Association of Chiefs of Police need to start sharing information about any and all attacks upon officers at any level.

Trump has turned loose hatred and anger. He thinks nothing of playing with human life and the attacks on officers are a clear demonstration of it. I sincerely believe there is so much anger in this country that anyone in uniform, without exception including school crossing guards could be in danger. They need to add bulletproof vests and any other safety measure to ensure they make it home to their family.

I’ll tell you something, the political right wing has created their own hell. You can thank Mitch McConnell for a political party where everything is in playoff so long as they maintain power. Well, Mitch once a human life has ended at the business end of a weapon of war there is no bringing them back to life.

The right always claimed the military style weapons are necessary in the case a would be dictator ever takes the White House. Now, the Republicans are seeing the fruit of all those liberal gun laws when they became the would be dictator.

None of this violence should be a surprise by people in authority. If it is then they don’t belong in that authority. Americans are oppressed, threatened medically with an expensive food supply, and scared for the future of their children. This climate is bearing down on people and a threat to their lives and life style. To abruptly change a governance of a people only causes confusion and fears of losing their best outcomes. 

This is no surprise either. The economic contraction is palpable. Republicans leadership cannot attacks citizens and walk away stating it is good for the country. It is not good for the country. The federal budget can be addressed but not in such a way that literal harm comes to Americans. Citizens have to prepare for vast changes in their lives. 

On top of everything else the Robert’s Court is slated to cause more hardship in American lives by allowing the USA to become a banana republic. Hey, but who said the court should try to maintain a governance that works for Americans? They much rather help billionaires. 

11 percent increase in bankruptcies is a huge and further contributes to a terrible economy.

Agreed. President Trump agreed.

No one asked for this fight. No different than Ukraine, now NATO is faced with Putin’s blind ideological aggression. Poland has been preparing for Russian aggression for at least the past year, including fallout shelters. No one wants that to happen. If such hateful aggression occurs what do we do for the Polish the day after? We have to be able to extract them to safety.

This is as terrible as it gets and I believe the Free World is ready to take it on.

Definitely exciting.

There better not be commercial enterprises on Earth’s gravity captured satellite. We don’t need more anthropogenic moon quakes. If China is planning commercial activities it is an issue of Earth security and the United Nations. 

As far as the water, I wouldn’t drink it. The moon has no atmosphere to protect anything on its surface. There are all sorts of stuff the moon’s gravity could be pulling in at any 

given time. 

This Artemis moon flight, as far as I am concerned is the first step in achieving Mars landing and beyond. No astronaut is injured or worse. We don’t sacrifice safety for profits. 

The American areas of the moon need to be treated as any national park, “Pack in, pack out. Leave nothing but footsteps behind.”

Stare decisis by definition is a doctrine or policy for following rules or principles of previous judicial decisions unless they contravene the ordinary principles of justice. 

The six star chamber judges is going to discharge Jerome Powell as a direct attack on the USA dollar. They are taking a long standing stable democracy into a banana republic. It is a revolutionary court. There is nothing conservative about them except perhaps their religious practices, but, Barrett is a member of a cult.

The Climate Crisis

The regressive policies of USA Republicans cannot disprove what the world’s scientists have proven over more than eight decades. 

Brazil has a magnificent government unafraid to jail criminal leaders.

Every country that live their children should bring strong sanctions and/or tariffs of the USA based in Trump’s reckless climate policies. He cuts USA generosity to the bone depriving children worldwide of their own lives.

Donald John Trump is pure, unadulterated evil. He is a convicted criminal. He conducts himself as a racketeer within the power of the U.S.A. presidency.

His words are meaningless in the real world. 

Escalation by Russia in Ukraine

Has Trump ever reflected on anything other than an emotional strategy to defeat people psychologically? Currently, Trump is not assisting Ukraine in allowing sufficient military hardware into Ukraine to protect its children. What he has determined the best route for the war in Ukraine is to allow Putin to escalate attacks on civilian and energy structures to bring Zelenskyy begging at the diplomatic table to give up the land that Russia demands.

Does the defense of our own country surrender to demands or stand strong in maintaining our defense department at a ready state? What Trump is demanding of Ukraine is surrender, not strength and doing so at the expense of civilian lives. That is a crime of international humanitarian standards. 

What kind of ally is the USA? One who surrenders to despots or one that brings victory? Trump’s idea of winning is always gambling with lives. That is not winning. 

Putin loves the bloodshed as much if not more than the ideology. Putin should ask himself if such strategies worked in Syria. Instead, he will allow Israel to lather at the mouth of expansionism and wait to strike another day. 

There are civilians dying in Ukraine unnecessarily.

Vladimir Putin expected the G8 countries to allow the invasion of Ukraine without any resistance. As a result the countries within an alliance are the G7. Putin’s desire for the return of the Soviet Union boundaries is unrealistic and destabilizing globally. In his speech he is preparing for greater war. His ultimatum has nothing to do with peace or economic stability or prosperity, it is all old ideology that supports his POLITICS domestically. 

Vladimir Putin’s brinkmanship and marginal threats need to stop. He needs to reassess a much needed peace for now and the future for the people of Russia. He cannot continue to pretend war is an option while draining the lifeblood of allies. 

He also understands the threat on Earth’s climate and cares little about it. His politics had taken him into a realm of destabilizing ideology and light years from the largest country supporting the Kyoto Protocol. Rather than leading sanctions against the USA for its hideous climate behavior he is the focus of sanctions and ridicule. His politics are destructive to Russia and its people. When will he finally embrace the Russian speaking people striving for peace again? 

No one is asking the Russian people to give up communism as their governance, but, only a return to peace and prosperity. China has the best way forward to ensure all countries boundaries are respected. China values its people and vast domestic improvements far differently without changing its governance. It is time the world value peace rather than hideous dominance militarily of a single ideology. Value life, Vladimir, not the chronic threat of death. Earth is on the brink in this void of reasonable thought and goals. That is the truth and Putin knows it. He could lead if he wanted to casting Trump into the shame he deserves. Stop feeding the beast.

No military rank

Vance holds no military rank. He is a civilian. The Vice President is the president of the Senate. He is a tie-breaking vote. Now, realize all the hate he spews in angry tones and know it is meaningless except to the subscribers of Truth Social. It is probably illegal for Vance to carry out performance art as his role. 

The Trump administration are full of these kind of jerks. They pretend a lot. What sane Attorney General would send citizens on a mission to tattle-tale behaviors to employers? Seriously. They are a piece of work. Not one mature adult among them.

The more drama there is with Kirk’s case, the more it looks as though there is no case against that young man in Utah. I am no lawyer and I can shoot holes through the prosecutor’s case. I wonder who really did it? I don’t really appreciate assassins on the loose.

I think all the grandeur surrounding the Kirk case is to taint the jury pool as well as the obvious political reasons. We know this administration has no use for Due Process. I think they are trying to beat it. 

There is so much doubt for me, I don’t think the guy on the roof did it. No doubt he was on a roof, but, without a gun as proof, I think he was running away from the gun fire. There is absolutely no proof he had a gun at all, especially a single bolt action rifle. Those rifles were illegal under the Assault Weapons Ban.

Ever wonder what the country would be like if the former Vice President Al Gore took the White House? The Assault Weapons Ban would be law. The age of fossil fuels would be over and Earth’s climate crisis would be waining rather than on fire. Now. Realize how high the stakes were for those industries and why they allowed Russia in.

Russia’s long view is exactly what the NRA had to harness. It wasn’t as though any gun manufacturer would shut down. But, the NRA allowed a sovereign communist country inside the elections of this country for profits. And what do we have today? Dead Americans, among them school children. Dead police that were ambushed by a madman. What came of the NRA? A slap on the wrist.

Oh, the Utah guy’s DNA? Yeah. It showed up on a towel after he was arrested. That evidence was not part of his arraignment.

Conviction has been made with circumstantial evidence so long as the jury buys it. 

About time…

 …the USA legislature starts doing their job. They are crafting a bill to transfer frozen Russian assets to Ukraine. It will help Ukraine enormously and bring relief to the people. It will also help pay for the military bills that are adding up.

I look forward to good work in regard to this bill that will provide much needed help for Ukraine. Such actions can also encourage peace rather than ideological wars. 

Thank you, Jack Smith.

It is impossible to stop a hero.

Kimmel censorship?

My understanding is it occurred to curry favor with the FCC over upcoming hearing if the powers that be.

So let me get this right.

MAGA’s hate and fear machine masterminded by Donald Trump produced a monster and now the monster has been slain and no one in MAGA takes responsibility for their wayward messaging. 

Yes? 

And true to form MAGA is now trying to bankroll the death of a thirty something member. That is exactly what is happening with the Republicans and they love it. Poor Kirk. May he represent every American slain by Republican sponsored gun violence. 

How many voters did MAGA register yesterday?

And the rest of us are to honor censorship?

“W”rong!

Bush 43 never signed the Assault Weapons Ban when it sundowned. Kirk’s death started then.

David Attenborough will be 100 years old in May of 2026. He has dedicated his life to bringing the message of the preciousness of Earth. If the leaders of the world don’t listen to him, then who will they listen to as Earth’s ability to support life wains. 

The climate crisis is not about adapting to change; it is about the very survival of life on Earth. What is it going to take? A presentation by Google? A dedicated British Prince? The Pope? 

Earth’s oceans are distressed to the breaking point of this water planet. What is it going to take to end the denial and harness the common good to save Earth for the next generation of human beings? 

Hm? What will it take to end wars leading to nowhere and fight the only war worth fighting; namely survival.

There is no running away from the climate crisis in a spaceship or otherwise. Planet Earth is the only satellite to survive on. The warning started more than 75 years ago and global leadership is still stuck on propaganda and not the truth.

Albeit late and disappointing at times, the colder air will be visiting. This is an article from “Wirecutter” discussing pajamas (click here). 

I like pajamas most of the time. They can be a bit of a fashion statement or one of practicality, but, fun in keeping the sheets pleasant as well. 

Happy shopping.
