IT’S THE RICH WHAT GETS THE PLEASURE (by any means necessary and no matter what it takes)












Robert Reich is Chancellor's Professor of Public Policy at the University of California at Berkeley and was part of Bill Clinton’s cabinet. He nutshell’s the current social savagery neatly and succinctly.

“Suppose a small group of extremely wealthy people sought to systematically destroy the U.S. government by (1) finding and bankrolling new candidates pledged to shrinking and dismembering it; (2) intimidating or bribing many current senators and representatives to block all proposed legislation, prevent the appointment of presidential nominees, eliminate funds to implement and enforce laws, and threaten to default on the nation's debt; (3) taking over state governments in order to redistrict, gerrymander, require voter IDs, purge voter rolls, and otherwise suppress the votes of the majority in federal elections; (4) running a vast PR campaign designed to convince the American public of certain big lies, such as climate change is a hoax, and (5) buying up the media so the public cannot know the truth.
Would you call this treason?
If not, what would you call it?
And what would you do about it?”

Why not call it what it is? It's the mixed economy model, and it exists solely to farm up corruption, fertilized with moral hazard.

The mixed economy model is not capitalism, it's socialism. Communism is established by force. Socialism is established by vote. Their destination is identical and it is called despotism.

I do not embrace collective action period. No gods, no masters; I govern myself accordingly. No valid philosophy can't be practiced to the nth degree. I am not motivated by fear or greed. I am only motivated toward truth.

It isn't treason for the sheeple to prepare themselves for slaughter, initiating force against individuals. It's simple devolution into unconscious behavior. They are entitled to their suffering, leave them be. There are no victims.

Every individual has the opportunity to awaken at any moment, or not. Collective action yields zero utility. Enlightenment can not be withheld or given away. There is no separateness. All things will happen, because all things can happen. Truth is infinite. If that isn't enough, yer shit outta luck, because 99.99% of the human race is pure scum by choice, and according to history books always has been. The answer is found only at the individual level.

Enjoy your "time" as a human life-form, but it's overrated.

Ain't no woodchuck season, that is they're varmints taken year 'round. Keeps one alert. Find two together and they're easy prey. Same as most "things". Shot two hidden in 3ft high hay-field, locked snarling in a death match. Walked right up to them.

Gonna miss ya Mick. I've never read a blog like yours. Your perspective pushed all the right buttons.

All the best mate - gone too soon. :(

Very sad news that I heard today. I was lucky to see the last full Deviants gig in June. Mick clearly wasn't as well as would be hoped, but was in good form afterwards and this is a shock. Too young in the 60s, I vividly remember the great NME pieces of the mid-70s that shook us into life, a standard that this blog maintained. Thanks for a towering talent.

Thanks for Billy Oblivion and for Phaid the Gambler, for the Minstrel Boy and AA Catto. No-one ever did it better. I am going to miss you a great deal.

Much love - RIP - Portman

Sad, very sad. Tears. Unfillable void. I have dreaded this and hoped it would be many years prolonged. There was no better blog. So under appreciated. His novels should have been movies. I'm so sad.

I didn't know you as long or as well as I would have liked, but thank you for the time. It was great to meet a kindred spirit, and share some time with him. hank you for all the wonderful music and literature. Thank you for a blog that made me think and laugh and cry sometimes.
I will miss you. BUT MOFO YOU WENT OUT ROCKIN'!!! I would expect no less from you. Made me even prouder to have known you. I doubt you really want to RIP, so ROCK ON!

Dear Sirs & Ma'ams
I beg to enquire , where may I find Mick's grave and final resting place? I have been a loyal fan of his fiction works since 70s, and desire dearly to pay my respects to Mick, not having had the opportunity or privilege of meeting him in person on this plane. Thank you sir
Yours sincerely

My humble tribute to Mick.
If its not too maudlin and gawkish, should any friend visit his tomb, please help me read to him

IN MEMORIUM MICHAEL ANTHONY 'MICK' FARREN

You are the Bringer of rare & exotic visions
Story teller, songsmith, poetry-spinning Bard
Wild Child Supreme of the Age of Aquarius
You lived the life described by your songs and stories
Rode the lightning, flew the clouds of fancy
You lived, loved, drank, smoked, sang , danced and pranced like
An excellent hero from your book
You lived and departed this Plane in the manner of Legends,
Bathed in applause and spotlights
Shades and boots on, taking no bull from nobody
With you gone, endeth an epoch
Of true Love, Peace, Truth & Beauty
Mick, stand by the left of Zeus' throne
AND ROCK O-O-O-ON!!!!

Stupor Mundi said...

Just threw the majority of your music choices from your video posts onto my Spotify list. Thank you for your autobio, your music, and your taste in music. Your writings have helped me separate the wheat from the chaff and I've gotten into so much heavy-duty 50's rock from them. RIP.

As reported by Stanford Medical, It's really the one and ONLY reason women in this country live 10 years longer and weigh an average of 19 KG less than we do.

(By the way, it has totally NOTHING to do with genetics or some secret diet and EVERYTHING to do with "how" they eat.)

P.S, What I said is "HOW", not "WHAT"...
