The Naked Truth Of Lasting Connection

To lay with something,
as naked as you can
be made of stripping off
the figurative barriers,
in the moonlight,
is truly to bathe
in the light of reflection,
as the glow of connection
infuses you
with the other
being
infused into you.

Can we ever dance
the deep rub
of Tantric Touch
in absolute entanglement,
letting go into each other
completely.
It's the only way
to go
if you really want
to know, and
love the hold
of such beautiful,
lasting structure.
All so very
touching
in oh, oh
Oh!
So many ways.

We can and
you will know
if you also take
the leap 
of faith into
the loving hold
of all of the deeper
structures already
loving their arrangements
around you. The ones
that breath your life
into you, as
you breath theirs
into them,
in more ways
than not touching
Tantric
could ever imagine.

It's the true path
that Balance seeks
if the traveler is to love
the journey
as much as the temporary
destinations.

What Is Critical Social Logistics?

Ideally it should be the balance between what both the one, and the many, need, and benefit from, in their interactions, that require moving things, and people, around. Where, certainly, the many decide the hierarchy of competing priorities, by the means of the. unencumbered, informed consent, of the majority, by Democratic vote, and/or, voting with your feet (because you absolutely could then).

Where, as well, just as certainly, the majority always takes balanced due diligence to respecting the rights of the minority, because we will all have to play both roles, in an ever shifting set of overlapping responsibilities, as we embrace redefined work, and take full responsibility, for running our own communities (which we will then be sharing the full ownership of).

Keep in mind, however, that this ideal will be impossible to even begin to try to work towards (as you would with any good aspiration), let alone obtain ultimately, if you stay with Capitalism.

And by the way, just so you understand the full ramifications here. You will not be able to save the planet unless you are able to also be working to establish the ability to aspire to this sort of logistics ideal. And that is because saving the planet will require logistics not only for the massive installations we will need to build, and maintain, to have green centered, adjustable, healing effect, but also to begin building the infrastructure for our mass migration off of the planet as well. And that is because those two must go together, or neither will be able to be accomplished ultimately.

I mention all of this now because, At some point in the new year, Congress might actually get around to considering Infrastructure investments; especially now that we are heading for an almost certain, new, recession.

My fear, of course, is that too much of this will end up benefiting corporate coffers, at least as much as it might benefit us, or the planet (and we all know how that can get corrupted). This is why these investments must be done for public utility kinds of things, of which a true, means tested, public, regional, and international, transportation system is absolutely fundamental to our survival.

I also identified the means to produce liquid hydrogen, at sea (with natural fiber tech that might also give us floating habitats as well), to be used by a public energy utility, as well as outlined the means to build "Very Large, Lighter Than Air, Constructs," by which we will be able to create ice, and maybe even city, saving shade, at the very least.

And the thing is, we can set doing all of these up so that it is both a jobs program, and a green investment, because it will be established via Federal, local community, public development projects; with no for profit entities involved at all. Projects that could be tailored to each community's needs for both energy, jobs, and connection to the rest of the world, to trade, and interact, without it being just a means for singular sets of others to enrich themselves.

I know all of you have a lot on your plate, these days, worry wise already, but there is just nothing for it. Please, I beg of you, Give this serious consideration.


Capitalism Is Obsolete: We Most Certainly Do Need To Rethink

Instead Of Just Watching, We Could Become Americans With A Shared Vision, Doing Things Ourselves

What if, instead of just watching "America's Got Talent" (or any of their ilk) on TV, each community organized their own, local, we got talent, and we love to celebrate it, competitions; maybe as much, if not more, than the oddity of the economic monster that the various physical forms of human ability got turned into; as in all of the sports that dominate the education system now. And what if at least a good portion of the talents celebrated were those that helped the community do things better? As well as the ability to sing, dance, act, and play instruments, which are, on their own, very good things indeed to be doing more of; most especially if you are part of the doing yourself.

What if, instead of just watching "Modern Marvels" on TV (a show that should never have been cancelled), our kids could be taken to various parts of the marvels that make a community possible, and were show, first hand, and on a regular basis, just how the things they need to learn are applied, and why you need to understand them to keep them going. Taking them to these places so as have them put their hands on it, and their full faculties engaged by it, up close and personal, to see how important things give us what we need. Seeing first hand as well, how their parents, the parents of their friends, are a needed part of these things, just at they will need to be when they grow up.

What if, instead of just watching a report, from some dedicated investigative journalist, concerning a situation going on, that was not only immoral, on the face of it, but also horrible to contemplate, if you were on the receiving end of the bad part of this situation; what if, instead of that, you could have the mixed involvement, of an ever circulating group of fellow citizens, sharing first hand the realities of all of the tasks, and processes, that must be done to keep a community going, find these situations organically, as they arise? Find them, and then speak up about them at regular community meetings, because that would also be something of a regular, direct participation; as opposed to just listening to what a few, because they have monied interests, aruge stuff in front of a city council, that few in the community ever even see the inside of the building for (much less made use of themselves), on the local news show at dinner time, or just before bed.

What if work was being organically connected to your community, precisely so as to better help keep it going; so much so that there could never be any doubt, from that point on, that you mattered, and that you were needed. And that getting the basic things you need would just flow automatically from your participation in full scale, community life; especially with the bulk commodity essentials that could be produced by automation, in balance with you figuring out what you value, and want, for your own, personal, enjoyment; and then being given not only the material resources to create it, but the community access to all of the tools necessary to put it together yourself (having already benefited from universal access to the knowledge, and technologies, involved, as well as deep a connection to how to use those technologies.

These things are possible. They could be made to come into being. We only need to first understand the idea of it. Then to agree that it is a far more worthwhile alternative than what we have now; fraught with difficulties though there may be in getting all of the details sorted out on... Well, on just about every aspect of of it. Sorted out and negotiated so that everybody has to sacrifice a bit to make it happen.

This is what you have to do in order to have a vision that might be shared at all. But if you can do that then you can have something that Americans also share what I believe is a unique gift for. And that is simply the fact that Americans with a shared vision are a force of nature. And if we put our hearts, and our minds, to that vision, there is absolutely nothing that we cannot do. Absolutely nothing.

Think on that will you, as this year draws to a close. And you are mired in all of the B.S. that is going on now. We can, as ordinary folks, figure out a better way. We just have to believe it, and never lose faith in that. I am not going to give up on this, and I hope that you do not either. And also remember that, whether you think what I believe in is stupid, or that I think what you believe in is stupid, doesn't, in the end, matter nearly as much as holding on to the idea that we are still, all of us, just working people, trying to have reasonably stable communities; communities that reflect our values and allow us a decent, working chance, for us, and our children, to proper, going into a very challenging future; even in the midst of the turmoil of extreme weather, and uncertainties regarding resources.

The Real Takeaway From This Ought To Have Been About The "Distortion Fields" That Mr. Lazar Got To Examine

I do not spend a lot of time worrying about whether there are true Extraterrestrials, or not. It is certainly possible; with a significant probability. The possibility that folks here, at one time or another, have had interactions with them, is also a significant probability. After that, though, I just don't care. And this is for a very simple reason:

If they are out there, and whether they originate from this reality, or not, they most certainly haven't shown any interest in helping us. As such, I think we have a lot bigger fish to fry right now, as far as priority triage goes (because we absolutely have that many priorities demanding our attention).

You can speculate on all sorts of reasons for their seeming lack of interest, certainly. Most likely, it would seem to me, because they know exactly how crazy we've become and so want nothing to do with us; a sensible attitude, if you give it any rational thought; understanding that, giving it consideration within any kind of emotional logic, might be quite a bit more probabilistic, even than our rational logic matching to anything they might have for same.

It could also be that they have seen this fragile state, of a recently made sentient (by their reconing you see) species, now at a majorly critical point in their development, before. And they have come to the conclusion that each species must find their own way through this crisis; a form of the "Prime Directive," if you will, but not necessarily nearly so knoble. It might be that they won't need to ever be worried about us if we just fail this test. Or, conversely, if you can't figure this out on your own, how could we possibly depend on you for anything even approaching mutually beneficial arrangements? But who knows, right?

That speculation aside, you do also have to wonder if the small spacecraft still exist, if, in fact they ever did (which I think is credible, given the personal impression I got from the documentary that Mr. Lazar was featured in). As well as to wonder how such a secret could be kept secret for so long; given how even nuclear weapons themselves haven't always that well kept track of in the past few decades.

So, at first blush, it definitely begs credulity, at least to some degree, but I wouldn't waste too many brain cells on the whys of that; for the same "bigger fish to fry" reasons already stated. At least for now.

Be that as it may, though, I am still left quite intrigued by what (Dr,?) Lazar was suggesting was being done by the anti gravity tech contained with the craft he was allowed to examine; being quite specific about it being able to generate distortion fields of some sort, which really resonated with me. The feeling of that word "distortion" used here just makes a lot of gut sense to me, I'm telling ya.

What if we were to suppose that these kinds of "distortion fields" were indeed creatable? Do we only have the fields we already know about, to work with here? And might those be quite adequate enough, if we have them interact in the right new ways, so as to create these kinds of distortions?

Isn't that, in a sense, the very metaphorical intent of the mammoth, nested, and spinning, rings in Carl Sagan's "Contact?" Spinning on axis aligned along different angles relative to each other?

Consider this for instance: What if those rings were really a set of circular, linear accelerators. And what if they were allowed to accelerate either one contiguous mass, or a distribution of smaller masses, to significant percentages of the speed of light (with there also, perhaps, being speed differences so as to create different time dilation aspects). As such, forgetting, for the moment, what keeps these rings from flying apart, one has to wonder what would occur, because, at the very least, you would have very large, relativistic masses, creating the same "Frame Shear" forces, association with accretion disks, that would then interact around different spin orientations. In the case of "Contact," of course, to suggest that a singularity, of some ilk, might form through which a wormhole, also of some ilk, might also be formed. One that could instantly transpose one from one point in space to any other point in space (cool subjective experience, of course, being a complete toss-up as to whether it was just a field induced delusion, or actual experience, of something quite transcendent, or combinations of both).

And if it isn't spinning, relativistic masses, could it be that impossible space drive that NASA is still funding is the distortion field generator? It certainly seems a bit more like anti gravity. But this only serves to beg the question as to what else might create useable field distortions of this magnitude, and seemingly magical effect?

There is supposed to be a Graviton, after all. Could you ever create a Gasser (would you also have to create a virtual, "Zero Point" module, to power it)? As in the effective equivalent of a gravity laser? If you could do that couldn't you also create a whole new class of coherent energy emmination, interference effect? As in a new kind of holographic manipulation of space time. Only in this instance where the meaning in the interference might be tuned somehow to either negative, or positive?

We do have bigger fish to fry, but I never let that stop from always trying to dream up wonderful new possibilities. It is just one more of the kinds of things that help give me hope for the future. And let me just say that I still have hope for the future because I can see the possibilities for getting ourselves out of the mess we're in. I think you could too if you gave it a chance. And just think. If we pull this miracle I claim is possible off, maybe the good guys from elsewhere will want to make common cause, and the bad guys will maybe now want to think twice. Just sayin.

The Things We Do To Ourselves

[Post Note: I have added the following:

  1, The new "See Also" link below to: 4 professional women on making ends meet in the most expensive U.S. cities

J.V.]

Because we've had so much BS pumped into our heads. Because nothing is quite as sell worthy like having a person with a lot of BS in their head. As well as not having a great deal of impulse restraint, in their upbringing, be emphasized much either. You know, to go along with a lack of the ability to do critical thinking in the first place, much less be able to articulate that thinking. Because, of course, people like that are precisely too prone to be asking critical questions, demanding information that is just too precious to part with ("My precious!" indeed, as Gollum would say).

Case in point for the moment: Women now being made to believe that they must "Bleach" parts of their labia.

This does, certainly, follow a thread already well wound out, with branching threads as well. Something I have posted in the past as it relates to how our sense of body image has been made to be ever more ridiculous; illustrated quite well by a health professional of some sort, if memory serves, using the evolution of Barbie and Ken, and GI Joe dolls, and how they changed in form, to show this development only too well.

For women, it seems to me, the terrible thing has been related to how cars, and their shapes, may have evolved, because of the obvious marketing potential, to representing them as an extension of a woman's body, in more than a few aspects; far in excess, certainly, of any sort of aerodynamic molding. This was terrible, both in relation to how having a woman's body as a fast, play thing, for status aggrandizement, is bad enough to begin with, but the problem exacerbates when, after a while, the standard warps over, and now woman think they need to keep matching up to the sleek surface renditionings of such status objects, so as to be just as status capable.

You need only observe what the TV standard for a woman to be a "personality," of any branding worth, has to be now, to see this in action; as in you must not have even pores show, on faces that look like they came fresh out of a car body shop; so perfectly smooth, and airbrushed to just the right shade of skin glow. And of course this would also have to extend to all of the body accessories as well; breasts, teeth, stomach, butt, and vagina. As if body shaming wasn't bad enough already, now, that any danglies that interrupt the perfect curves, are so supposedly unsightly, you have to do ridiculously unnecessary surgery on your labia to make what is already something as close to perfect, in the sense of both form and function, as nature ever gets. But that, of course, was already the case with the rest of your supposed naughty bits (but not so naughty as to not be plastered over everything, synonymously with the idea of buy me).

Us guys are in the thick of this too, now, though. Make no mistake. And it is already adding in, perhaps a great deal more than we realize, to the general angst that a lot of men feel for not being able to measure up, commercially to begin with (because value in a community has been taken out of our hands), but then to add what now can only be called the "Hero's" body; at least as the entertainment industry has gotten it all pumped up to be; equally ridiculously over inflated with muscle, but also so sucked out of fat as to be quite nearly lethal; all posited around exercise not as a means to a healthy, balanced life, with healthy muscle tone, but as a new religion; a religion that will take the idea of the Nichian "Superman" to even more disastrous results; with very little allowance being even considered for any counter balancing internalization of the idea that "strength" should be about so much more than just what big biceps are supposed to imply; as in strength of character, strength of heart, or strength of purpose, to name but a few (the actors who do this should be noteworthy not because of the hero's antics on screen, but because of the discipline they have to apply to life to be able to present themselves in this fashion, in the first place).

The bottom line for women here, however, is both simple and complicated. Simple in the fact that, sooner or later, woman are going to have to become some of our most ardent revolutionaries. Complicated because, ironically, you must first stop some wheels from turning at all (with all the forms of peaceful civil disobedience you can muster, not the least of which being work stoppages, en masse), in order to seize the power you will need to take back full control of not only your bodies, in a physical sense, but your very persona as something that expresses a good deal more than an implied impulse to buy. Or that, conversely, personas should be something that can be bought at all in the first place, and used as it pleases those who can pay whatever price; along with its implied, newly redefined, functionality.

The dangerous rise of vaginal lightening



[Post Note: Don't think these aren't related, because they most certainly are, not only because they don't want to lose a big money maker, but also because the men involved just aren't ever going to see you any other way now, in my opinion; so steeped, and entrenched, in Capitalistic, dominance, and the rights of supposed, personal, manifest destiny, sorts of thinking, as they are. And also because Capitalism is just so extra mutated now because of the effects of electric amplification of all of our faculties; especially as it relates to just how much excess can happen when ever more, high fidelity fantasies, are a hot commodity, in another gowing new market. J.V.]

Women make up just 11 percent of the highest paid jobs in corporate America



Catalyst -- Women In Management Report



[Post Note: And this applies too because you know who gets stuck with single parenthood the most. Just as you know that such "Bleeding Heart" Liberal issues are the "soft headed" thinking in the minds of the same Capitalist mentality that would make money off your persona, however, and not think twice of the incongruity of that exploitation, against their unwillingness to be taxed to support anything "social" oriented at all. Or so it would seem at least, with the way the react at all to taxes of any kind. J.V.]

When You Want True, Branded, "Business As Usual," As It Is Now Played, Stick With The Operating System That Works With Them The Best

It's been a good year for thugs, murders, and dictators, it would seem. Though perhaps not so much for certain pretenders to those lofty heights of immorality; at the moment at least.

Isn't it interesting, though, that our Corrupter-n-Chief didn't want to have a chance to glad hand here with these guys as well?

He certainly hasn't been bashful about sucking up to either leader individually before, and in public comments at least, if not in actual public displays of fawning; even after they have killed, or had people beaten, intimidated, or effected interference with a large portion of we hold dear here at home.

Capitalism is certainly not what is going to take us where we need to go, but for these guys, it looks like it has already taken them home.

So the question is as it has always been: What are you going to do about it?
