Talk Without Limits -

 Sometimes getting caught up in the moments of your life will paint it with colors that just don't apply to the real pigments of it. The too much of one shade or another creeps in on the carefully blended ones and it leaves a less than appealing shade. In the last few years the painting is happening around the clock and the real colors of life have taken their place and there is no more painting over them.

While these colors and shades have been around all along, they have recently began to bleed out, in some cases quite literally. The atmosphere of a country at a focal point, its people ready for change, and equally ready their own personal manifest destinies. You could claim a massive lack of understanding from all corners, ignorance, and divisiveness. You could claim cronyism and unfair advantages, cheating and illegal activities, it's the government, it's those people, it's business...Whatever the basis for the blame or the belief, understanding or lack thereof, there has been progress in this painting party. When you clean up after throwing mud around so long, you see where the fresco's and pigments of colors really go.

Pardon me for dragging you through that eloquent dog pile. This is Talk Without Limits, We have been pissing on everyone else's legs for a long time now. Race relations, Political stripes, antagonism towards everything, reveling in the madness of condemnation. We have almost found a cure for genetic blindness, yet we are celebrating a demagogues demise like it is something to be proud of. How the blank did he even get there anyways? This really small pettiness that has driven us mad though, has actually done some good, we are done with it inside, all of us. In this world right now more than anything else, people are intolerant of intolerance. That is a double edged sword though, for one is the other and the other is the same, it is a cautious path we go forward on.

We have brought race back to the spotlight again, and womens issues. We have denounced the acts of war once more and we are making progress and inroads against oppression. The examples we have now have been reduced from the past, there is in much a motion of progress. We have taken steps and more steps to ensure that the rights of all people and their various orientations, no matter what they are, are protected and respected. We have shone a light on the manners and ways in which we slight and demean and make this world a darker place. We are sharing our understanding with those who will listen and we are finding voices which disagree and those that point to a different color, a different view. We are climbing out of the goo of our evolution once more and we really have been making steps, grand steps in this painfully slow process.

It is all to easy at times of darkness to believe that the shades of life are muddied and unwanted. There will be a time when those things do receive the suns light. We have started a grand discussion and began finding solutions again to those things instead of just denouncing them and frolicking in the misery of others. From political change to personal change, civic duty and an understanding of our place in things this discussion and education on life will continue. We can stop pissing on peoples pant legs and start picking them up, slowly but surely. From millenials to LGBT rights, from right wing nutjobs to whiny liberals, men and women, to colors and creeds, it is really working when you look at the big picture.

America - I'm Lovin' It!

Welcome to America.... Can I take Your Order? As this week begins, I am reminded again that the events and results from the previous year are trying to push themselves into this one. We are just short of that time when we permanently scar the buttocks of the nation with an asterisk and a question mark. When we hand over the government to those who wish to erode it away. Globalism made to order for a few, the people still a commodity being traded away in the most covert and overt of manners. I have written about the outright antagonism that the Russians have engaged in, the voting and manipulation of the American psyche. Breaking in to C-Span, dogging our cyber security and basically just laughing at us, we apparently are not going to do anything. There are others involved in this as well including our pals the Israelis, if there was a closer tie to another Super Power in this world we would be closer to China, but the Russians are working on them as well, so here we are. The Bols

Clinton and the Cosby Effect - America's New Judiciary

   There is a systematic dismantlement going on in America. It is not our infrastructure, our politics or our morals. It is in our basic judiciary, our justice system, in our beliefs. With this new found voice that the common person has found online, a step back in our social evolution is taking place. On every page and with every keystroke the entirety of our existence is being argued about, heralded and flat out lied about. That is the freedom we have in this country, we get to lie with impunity, we get to pull things like a Stretch Armstrong to make our points, make us right, make us feel justified.   No matter what your thoughts are about the guilt or innocence of Bill Cosby and the allegations against him, this is true. The man has not been convicted, the man has not been tried by a jury of his peers, this dismantling of the person has been done by the media and social media alone. That much is very clear to me when I take everything else off of the table. The same thing is happ

With Slings of David

I have had this title sitting up here since November 10th. I had no idea what it was supposed to mean, though I didn't get rid of it for some reason. Was it some part of an idea or concept that already escaped me? Or one that was yet to fully come into clarity? I have no idea where this block is originating from, but it's reach feels somewhat gigantic. Mercury in retrograde may be a part of it, or an inner tornado of bile that won't settle down with the best meds around. Maybe it is just a huge denial system that got kick started like an atomic bomb? Maybe it is a huge realization and a betterment of my perceptions? Maybe it is a grief of mourning for what I once thought I knew, not only about my country, but about people as well? I don't know what to call it because it has not yet made itself clear enough to me. Thus I pick up the pen, or in this case keyboard and walk my way through this. It must have needed a crisp New Year, a new perspective to get something out
