Happy upcoming Stackiversary, Jeff!! 🎉 What's the date? My three-year Stackiversary is coming up on 4/25, and I celebrate it every year (margaretannaalice.subst… • margaretannaalice.subst…). The C&C Army will have to do something special on that date, even if it's just all raising a coffee cup to you ☕️

I raise my cup of coffee to Jeff every day. No one has ever made me laugh so much at the news in my life, I sure appreciate him.

Why are 'we' always, even at sites we like and read daily, not focusing on first order issues? Like the bioweapon as a murder instrument (and the biggest full scale planetary operation ever pulled off in the history of Mankind)? And why is it that I continually get the feeling that I am always being deflected? After all, Mistakes Were Not Made!
I pick this one out as below as being one of the single most important videos of the decade. It's long but it width and depth is astonishing. It's observations are broad but connect 'holistically' into a 'unified field' of thought.

I wrote a long, inadequate response last night. Don't think I'Il send it.
But I might, after all. Feeling spent & have much to do so whipping this out. …It’s not you being deflected, it’s the immensity of the monster you throw back the curtain and show them. That’s what’s being deflected. They deflect the sight of the monster. Trying to deflect it. But you tear your hair out because if they don’t see it, it won’t be stopped. Maybe they need to start simple…with a picture of a baby monster — some form of a less all out unimaginably powerful and terrifying on top of them monster.
I don’t know. But you must show absolute courage and confidence as you face it — even as you show it. It’s the hardest thing to do, carrying that knowledge, under the weight of knowing its looming immensity — and delivering it.
But, you must gain and show a blithe confidence , and this can come if you remember who you are and who He is, who lives in you and in Whom you live: The all powerful Sovereign God, infinitely greater than he who is in the world. Remember this — better than you remember the aspect of the monster ; eyes on Him — to walk by faith and not by sight.
So, the messages and alarms needing to be delivered to your fellows can be done with a steady heart inside of a weak mortal, in that strength and confident peace that comes from Him, & with an understanding of our weakness too. — To accept the message, the vision of this very real impossible monster, they must see your calm, fearless confidence. Does this make sense?
— I just reminded myself: opening my old Pilgrim’s Progress….

(And yes, Mistakes Were Not Made. This poem shows us one side of the monster — & even that is hard to reckon with — too many realities & implications so …forgetfulness. )
Godspeed, brother. 🙏🏼👆🏼✝️🕊

So nice to hear from you!
The immensity of the Scamdemic topic is an Everest. It's difficulty lies in the moving parts which must be pulled apart. And this is intensified and complicated by the felt emotional impacts which might as well be Everest's twin. Sometimes, it is all too much. And the bottom line is that water runs its course and no other. Humanity will bumble along, most of it in darkness to one degree or another. And we often do not see the justice we wish to have in this world. And yet, God rules and decides. And if with wisdom, there we must abide.
Sometimes it gets to be all too much, and the only thing to do is kick back until upheaval returns back to a tolerable level. And sometimes, with all the world a-churning, the best thing to do is to take rest in the beauty around you ... like daffodils, flowering quince and forsythia. I see them outside our windows. It’s stuff like this which keeps me sane. And also, it is my habit to put stuff into Save mode if I know that the edges is raspy rough. Sometimes, I scrap the whole thing. Other times I take stuff into ‘the chop shop’ and cut it down, sometimes three-quarters of a piece is made to mercifully evaporate into thin air.
You always makes sense. And your rudder grounded in Christian thought always make sense, at least to me. And I know that you are loved for who you are and by many people. I know that Dick had a crown jewel in you. Of this there is no doubting. You are appreciated. If I have learned anything from the last four years of living hell, it is the value of people who have their heads screwed on right. That the best way to achieve that is to read Scripture, believe it and take it to heart and into practice.
Well, I am tuckered out. And by the way, here’s something I am studying on my classical guitar. Here is Granados’ Oriental. Below is my favorite amateur performance, SelfTaughtGirl. And one of the best sites for classical guitar featuring some of the recorded greats of the past performers. Most of them were self-taught or studied under teachers, and not ruined by academia. Also, there is this original performance by Granados, or so it says. It’s on piano. Some say Granados sounds better on the guitar but after this, I have to wonder.

Stay well. The above is also a place of sanity … and relaxation.
Agreed. I am always hopeful after reading C&C!
Agreed
Congrats! I say we take a moment of silence for our televisions, as we escort them to the electronic waste facility, and embrace desktop email and C&C instead.
Haha, did that years ago, but I agree that is a great way to celebrate and is #2 in my 12-step recovery program from menticide!

Roman, what's a television?
You stole my comment.
I’m in
I'm in!
Love that idea!
If only “to be governed” also meant having legitimate votes counted
Yep. 15 days after the election, CA prop 1 for 6.4B (B!) to house the homeless narrowly passed. How abjectly depressing to know all along that it would…
H.B. ... wonderful and exact statement.
Robbed includes the erasure and the disappearing of our humanity, a vaporizing of both flesh and mental capacity.
