Mr. Tea

Let's Talk About Ceps
Personally I don't take a lot of these possibilities very seriously. Despite how often my fellow liberals accuse Trump of being a bullshit artist, they sure seem to fall for it every time.
Well he is and isn't. On the one hand, obviously Joe Biden isn't really a communist and wind turbines don't really cause cancer. On the other, a lot of the things he said he'd do - the deportations, the tariffs, abandoning Ukraine - are exactly the things he has done, or is doing.

And it's not as if declaring martial law would be out of character for him:



We reached that point in the conversation where he looked frankly at [Joint Chiefs of Staff] Gen. [Mark] Milley and said, 'Can't you just shoot them, just shoot them in the legs or something?' ... It was a suggestion and a formal question.

The big thing for me is there is always stuff to worry about. I think the degree to which liberals are freaked out about Trump, is probably comparable to the degree to which conservatives were freaked out about Biden. In this case, I do think there are active, avowed attempts to undermine the established federalist status quo. I'm more or less a federalist, so naturally I look upon such attempts with some degree of concern, but I also don't think its nearly as serious as a lot of other liberals do. In fact, I suspect we could do with some pruning, not that I necessarily trust Musk et al to do it with greater discernment than teenage boys.

I think most people seriously underestimate how ridiculously metastable and enduring the postmodern globalized paradigm can be, relative to previous historical paradigms - especially for the hegemon. One could argue trade wars could temporarily tank that stability, but ultimately I'm not that worried - largely because I sense little utility in being worried.

It all blurs together. The individual events don't count for much anymore and that's how they want it

there is no they. there are only warring parties. if you fail to understand this, you will only end up like biscuits with his marathon masturbation sessions where he chafes his wriggling appendage into troll oblivion. discipline yourself and stop going to clubs, even the KLF said so in their manual in 1989.

Hopefully, at sometime over the remaining days of the week, you will have been able to get out to a club and found the groove you need, been able to buy it on vinyl and get it home. It has to be the 12″ version as this will have whole great tracts of raw groove where each of the component parts of the groove are broken down and left exposed for your engineer and programmer to study and imitate when it comes to recording your record. Do not make the mistake of “going clubbing” a habit; it is a way of life that people can get trapped in. They begin to believe if they are not continually going to clubs they will miss out on something. The only thing that they do miss out on is themselves. Once in a club you have to leave your mind outside.

the trump admin is much more successful at ratcheting up tensions with Europe and moving along the political repolarisation. In a similar way to Farage. In this sense, brexit was always the most remain option, but biscuits fails to think about 2050.

now @Mr. Tea will resent me for saying this, but the two share more in common, in that respect. They will remember thirdforms words when the next world war breaks out between the US and the new European superstate bloc.

federalism is alien to the traditions of the communist party which demands centralisation on a worldwide level, and this is why you may be able to win until 2050, but will come to regret it. you should ask @dilbert1 about it, he should be able to give you some good literature written by one of the dudes/dudettes elucidating your tomfoolery. Unfortunately my suggestions emanate from Signor and signora, so they will be too dry for your ADHD addled epic trance yank brain.

Can turn naughty
Pattycakes met reynolds in loz angeles for mdma and wheatgrass shots

Reynolds had an arm wrestling match with a Highland Park Hells Angel named Bubba. The mdma gave him super strength and he left Bubba wailing on the floor with a fracture.

Stan made me smoke Ayahuasca pipes in his back yard while his mum told us stories about selling acid to the Mamas and the Papas in Laurel Canyon in the 70s. She's known as the lady who coined the phrase 'freak out' and was a major mover and shaker on the Sunset Strip during the early hippy period. She also opened the first head shop in Van Nuys around the same time. Later in the evening a gaze of raccoons descended from the trees and taught us the persimmon dance and told us the future. Was far out. A spirit wolf named miso also visited us, but I was too far gone at that point. Woke up 3 days later in a shed wondering if any of it really happened.

It's fully documented that part of their strategy is to flood the news with noise


capitalism produces unnecessary noise as a whole. all advertising is noise. most popular culture sooner or later devolves into noise (rather than being co-opted as some kind of original sin). most astrology, tarot, even popular adult literature, is noise. social media is designed only to generate noise.

What Trump is doing is nothing out of the ordinary, or even something he can consciously control.
