Who else Installed an 8 track tape deck and rear speakers?

Willow_Wisp comments on May 24, 2021:

I remember seeing what seemed like miles of 8 track tape stretched out up and down Grittney Road, the road that ran in front of our house in Clayhatchee Alabama back in the early 70's. I never owned an 8 track. My dad would have considered such a purchase foolish, and we were poor, living our lives of quiet desperation.

Willow_Wisp comments on May 24, 2021:

I was rooting for Elizabeth Warren, but she's a politician as well. When push came to shove, lets face it, anyone was better than Trump. Sure we could have all wasted our vote by writing in Bernie but do you honestly think that would have been a good idea in the last election? Some of us have been watching politics a damned long time. This issue of Israel isn't as simple in the US as voting for any given politician, what we have is a large minority of self identified Christian fundamentalist convinced that "Israel" is spiritually special. I put Israel in quotes because the Israel these people believe in isn't the Israel that exist, just as the Trump they are loyal too isn't the Trump that exist. Between Trump and Israel Christian delusion would choose Israel hands down over Trump, such is the nature of their delusion. Then comes the confusion of equating support of Israel with not being antisemitic. These are the same people that will tell you they aren't racist because they have a black friend, what they don't tell you is that friend was from high school 35 years ago and the scope of that friendship constituted them coming over for a party once when they were accidentally invited. So when we say that Israel is committing human rights violations and war crimes these shallow racist Christians only hear you saying that you hate Israel as if it were out of the blue and unjustified. To them opposing Israeli policy in Gaza is antisemitic, but don't get it confused most of them are still from suspicious of to full on hateful of actual Jews. After all in their minds the Jews are the Christ killers even though Christian philosophy clearly teaches that everyone killed Christ, not that Christians are aware of their own philosophies, especially the humanitarian/humanist portions. So I doubt even Bernie could have pulled off doing the right thing without the support of a larger majority of Americans than currently support the suspension of arms sales to Israel, Congress would crap all over that idea. Seriously if we can't get gun control of any kind at all with thousands and thousands of Americans killed by gun violence every year how exactly do you think you'll persuade them to stop spreading armed violence to every other country on Earth? We need a paradigm shift in our national awareness so we can change Congress, we have to move back from fascism, so it's homework that's unpleasant and difficult because your crazy uncle that lives in the woods is still expecting Jesus to show up any minute and until Jesus does he'll continue to support American fascism even if it involves killing a few snowflakes and ethnic minorities. You can put it ALL on Biden if you want to, but honestly that puts you in the same neighborhood as your fucking uncle.

I love bagels, I’m not Jewish though. My Dad never bought them as I was growing up in Alabama although I don’t know if they were available or not. They’re available now and my German step Mother says she’ll never eat one. My Dad made bagel jokes, stupid racist bagel jokes, he’s dead now. I joined the Navy in 1976 and saw my first bagel on a lunch truck in San Diego, $1.25 with a thick slab of cream cheese. It was so good I bought all five of the bagels off the truck before finishing the first one. I sat and ate every one of them. I did the same thing in the Philippines with mangos. I ate like a dozen or more of them all at once, gave me diarrhea, but I did it again the next day. I love finding new foods that I enjoy.

If Israel gave up their nation and everyone there left for the lands they originally came from the US backed by Evangelical Christianity would invade, kill all the newcomers, declare Israel a sovereign state and pay any Jews they could find to move back to Israel. Evangelical Christians hate Jews and like the idea of them all being a world away, and they love Israel because some ignorant goat herder in the bronze age wrote that God said he would bless those that bless Israel and curse those that curse Israel and Evangelicals will prostitute themselves for a blessing from God especially if it gets innocent people killed. Jokes on them, if God ever existed he cursed Israel so many times in the same book that he destroyed himself a couple of thousand years ago.

Willow_Wisp comments on May 20, 2021:

Conservatives love conformity. They don't love the notion that everyone has the same rights because there has to be an order in their minds. The order ranges from "Cis Heterosexual White Men" to "Transgender Homosexual Black Women" that's why so many black trans women are murdered and their murderers aren't found because the police really aren't looking for them. To the Conservative mind most people (whites are just a large minority after all) don't actually qualify as people. This is exactly why we desperately need passage of the ERA, if the law says we're equal then there will be consequences for the injustices that currently happen every day without consequences in 2021. Instead we have to live with one law protecting one group at a time. They fought womens rights, then civil rights, then gay rights, now trans rights. We just need one law, that says everyone has the same rights to end all these battle fields.

Willow_Wisp comments on May 20, 2021:

Morality is about unnecessary suffering and abuse. I see no way that sex work and morality are related other then in the opinions of closed minded people. If the sex worker is underage of course it's abuse. Coercion is subjective, one could argue that the human condition forces sex workers to perform acts they find distasteful. I'd argue that there's alternatives to sex work, which is why I've never done sex work. However I've known some rather happy hookers in my time, and I promise that if they weren't getting paid they'd still be having lots of sex but probably with more attractive partners.

10 ways to identify a witch, according to those running the Salem Witch Trials.

Willow_Wisp comments on May 20, 2021:

I think most of the witch trials targeted introverts and intuitive types. The INFP and INFJ type personalities in particular. It's hard enough to deal with life if you're one of these types today, imagine a couple of hundred years or more ago. Still witches had one primary contribution to history, in the mid 20th century when LGBTQ+ issues weren't discussed in polite company the TV show "Bewitched" used witches as a stand in for the LGBTQ+ community making it the "Gayest" show, and probably the friendliest accidental social engineering project, in history. The INFP personality type is frequently referred to as "Fay" by people familiar with the personality types, and I only know that because I am one. * "That's a fey person, someone who seems like they come from another world, kind of like an elf. ... Fey comes from the Old English word fǣge, or literally “fated to die soon,” which refers to that odd good mood a person is in right before they die." * * INFPs have an innate desire to champion the underdogs of the world. These types aren't easily dissuaded from their cause and, while they may seem serene and gentle at first glance, they can become fiery and intense if provoked.* So while my Dad raged against the Flower Children, I sought them out because they're obviously my people.

The shock of coming out initially as trans, you expect negative reactions but apparently there’s men out there with a trans fetish. So you go from cis male to receiving many unsolicited dick pics and uncomfortable propositions, it doesn’t matter how old you are or how far you’re along in your transition. No one explained to them that trans lesbians are a real thing and valid. My sexual preference hasn’t changed even if my gender did. These are separate concepts and I’m strongly monogamous, so it’ll be another decade or more before I get over my marriage of 15 years that ended in 2007. It’s how I’m wired.

You’d think they’d use tobacco taxes to provide alternatives to smokers wanting to quit, but no it’s just more money for the general fund. There should be a guiding principle here, if there’s a problem and your answer is taxation then a percentage should go toward helping the people that’s paying the taxes, especially if they’re the ones with the problem.

Willow_Wisp comments on May 17, 2021:

No, not that any of my prayers were answered, but I left it all to the wisdom of God because what I wanted might not be in his plan. What got me was the clarity of science and the fraud of scriptures and that still wasn't even enough. So I'd go to church until the ignorance was too great to endure. So perhaps there was a version of Christianity that wasn't bullshit, so I studied gnosticism and the beliefs of Cathars and other mystic heretics. Gnosticism is like quantum mechanics for Christianity, and like quantum mechanics I couldn't get it to work for me. Obviously there's no "Gnosis" (enlightenment) in practical terms. That led to studying mysticism in general, like the teachings of Buddhism, and Sufism, still no luck. Then at long last after looking through every millimeter of Christianity and all related subject matter I finally could call Christianity out for the BS it always was and became an atheist. It only took me 50 years or so to divorce myself from it and even now I see things like Trump and all the Christians giving him fellatio and remember verses like "And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:" and the fear of the anti-Christ returns. I mean Trump is a beast, but the question for Christians should be "Is he THE Beast?" He's certainly qualified, far more so than Obama whom they accused of being "THE Beast". But that's just post religion PTSD on my part.

The reason for the creation of the term agnostic was to make a "politically correct" word for atheist. New definitions were added to distinguish "knowing" from "believing" If you simply don't believe in God that's enough to be an atheist. If you don't "know" that there's a God then how in the F are you going to believe in that God? Agnostic is just too complicated and cowardly for me. Having no reason to believe something is adequate reason to not believe it.

You're an insufferable narcissist and look down on both theist and atheist making you a terrible person that has no purpose in my life.

I think her and I might be soulmates.

When my sister was alive she worked at Walmart, and one day someone on a motorized cart ran over her, it put her in the hospital for a full week. She damaged her rotator cuff.

Tell me honestly. You've all thought this, right???

I've done that. The first time I got in trouble in the Navy they gave us these little New testaments with Songs and Proverbs I think. Anyway they were just big enough to put in a shirt pocket, but since you had so little storage there was no way I was keeping it, so I tore it in two and dropped it in the trash. I was seen doing it and the next three hours I was in the Drill Instructors office being Christ shamed and demeaned. They never gave me another bible and I still told them they were superstitious apes. I had no friends.

It is better to be unhappy and know the worst, than to be happy in a fool's paradise.

I just caught the first one of the season a gopher snake. Going to release it way down the road.

That's a Jesus snake, you see it and jump while screaming "JESUS!" Also you can see the beam of divine power coming from to sky to bless the Jesus snake in the photo.

Yea, there's Bunny the talking dog as well. What if you teach your dog to talk and he will not shut up? What if all he wanted to say was HEY! It sounds like what dogs are saying, HEY!, HEY!, HEY!, HEY! Or worse you and your dog try Jeopardy and he beats you.

Trump voter in Colorado faces stunning voter fraud allegations

Willow_Wisp comments on May 15, 2021:

It's all projections, the Republicans accuse the Democrats of voter fraud and all the isolated instances of voter fraud we can find are all Republicans. They also accuse Democrats of pedophilia but they have Roy Moore and Mat Gates. They also accuse us of having a secret cabal that's controlling all non Republican politicians... so what does that mean about them?

GOP Rep. Clyde Asked About Comments Comparing Capitol Riot To 'Normal Tourist Visit' Runs Away

Willow_Wisp comments on May 15, 2021:

I wonder how many are actually under death threats. Lindsy was all done after Jan 6th until that threatening mob of MAGA spoke with him. I bet he thinks if he speaks out against Trump Russian mobsters or Proud Boys or the KKK will send an assassin to kill his family. It's kind of the only thing that makes sense all things considered. He said "count me out" like a mob accountant that just saw the mob execute a snitch. I think this conspiracy of Trump totalitarianism is highly motivated to keep a constant circus of obviously insane distractions going to prevent people from connecting the dots and discovering a truly Machiavellian World wide plot to enslave the planet, but team USA just isn't bright enough to pull it off.

I'm working on a new purpose, I served all my old purposes. I'd love to live to 300 if I have purpose. Without it I'd prefer not to continue. That was the odd thing about moving out west a few decades ago, I don't know the native "wild" flora. I can and did consume lots of food from the forest before, but here there are many poisonous plants that don't look poisonous.

Darkside Ransomware Gang Says It Lost Control of Its Servers, Money a Day After Biden Threat ...

Willow_Wisp comments on May 14, 2021:

I’m a controls engineer that wrote the controls for the Owens Lake reclamation project. Owens Lake once had a fishing industry, casino boats and vacation homes. LA installed pipes and drank it all to a hard desert wasteland that contributed more silicate particulate pollution then any other source detected in Antarctica even. We tapped into the California aqueduct with an 8 foot in diameter pipe. The on off valve takes three days to open or close because there’s as much kinetic energy in that pipe as there is in railroad locomotive pulling 400 train cars. Something we don’t want anyone to gain control of, so the control network is on an entirely isolated network, hence unhackable remotely. Even if you “NEED” your control system to have remote access you can connect via the dark web with VPN and 2048 bit encryption or stronger when it becomes available. All the banks use the dark web you don’t hear them complaining publicly about cyber security. 20% of the dark web is criminal, they sell heroin on a web page for goodness sake, US intelligence can’t find them so they advertise there. That’s how secure it is. Try the TOR browser it’s kind of jarring.

Willow_Wisp comments on May 14, 2021:

It's like the 1860's, we have two groups in the US, patriots and traitors. The traitors attacked Congress on January 6th. I'll never identify with either party because parties change, for example when I was a kid the Republicans were the liberals and the Democrats were the conservatives. They're there to represent me, I'm not here to represent them.

Willow_Wisp comments on May 13, 2021:

No one should have sex that doesn’t want to have sex. Those that don’t want it shouldn’t judge anyone that does. Sex is private and you owe no one any justification for how you wish to approach it. Be open with people you’re attracted to about your desires but temper it with patience and agree before proceeding. Heterosexual people do not communicate enough before acting out on assumptions. Like the guy that got all excited that his girlfriend said she was so anal, it took four hours to explain what she actually meant so he wouldn’t embarrass himself later.

"The worst government is often the most moral.

Willow_Wisp comments on May 13, 2021:

The worst government is no government. The more order the healthier the government, but I sense that Republican “law & order” types think of order as control, it’s not, order is about predictable security. Give the public security and there will be order. Go into a neighborhood as a cop and kill the first person you “feel” threatened by justifiable or not and you’re killing security and there can’t be order. Easy stuff.

I learned something new today.

Willow_Wisp comments on May 13, 2021:

Nice, I never heard of that and I was raised where that was the kind of thing one might expect to hear. I remember on hot days resting under dogwood trees, it was cool and like a hut under the branches that hung to the ground so you had to push through to get to the space, like hiding under a skirt, but 40’ across. We had wild plants that make juicy succulent blue colored berries but they’re poison. But you take the tender young leaves and blanch them to remove the poison and you had poke salad, which reminded me of collard greens but not as flavorful.
