Wat’s Carbon Water-N-Stuff Thread - Concepts In Iron And Wood!!!

Is it my fault that I’m a poet
Of heavy suffering and bitter fate?
After all, it wasn’t my choice—
It’s just the way I came into the world.

Is it my fault that I don’t cherish life,
That I love and simultaneously hate everyone,
And know things about myself I don’t yet see—
That is my gift from the muse.

I know there is no happiness in life,
Life is lunacy, the dream of a sick soul,
And I know my gloomy tunes bore everyone,
But it’s not my fault—that’s the kind of poet I am.


~ Sergei Yesenin

Motherfucker, it's JOY you need.


You're going to get a scholarship to Summer Re-education Camp at this rate.
 
I think that the church kicked him to the curb.


Back across the river, deep and wide,
back across the river to the other side . . . .


I guess that Baby Jesus will just have to put on his walkin' (on water) shoes.


I hope that they seal around the holes in his feet . . . .
 
Two monks come upon a woman standing at the bank of a river. She needs to get across, but is unable to make it alone. The elder of the two monks picks her up and carries her through the rushing water. Once they’re safely on the other side, the woman goes on her way. The younger monk is stunned. Its part of their vows that they’re not allowed to touch women , and he doesn't know what to make of his older friend’s behavior.

Finally, after stewing over the incident for several miles, he says to his traveling companion, “How could you touch that woman back at the river the way you did? Have you no respect for our vows?” The elder monk turns to his young friend and says, “Are you still carrying that woman? I put her down at the river bank over an hour ago.”



Our children here will be carrying the "fruits" of last week to their graves. Insh'Allah the trip be shorter than they have planned . . . .
 
One of the demographics that voted for Trump was Hispanic males. I kinda wonder if it might have had a bit to do with Trump's proposed/threatened immigration/deportation policies. I'm sure those guys work, and they might feel that they don't need off-the-books illegals competing with them for their jobs.


And there's the rate of inflation. More money for gas and food here means less money is available to go back home to feed the family there.
I am bilingual and am deeply embedded in the Latinx community. My Big Domme and i spend a lot of time in Florida.

I agree with you about the economic issues.

But there is also great fear in the Latinx community about LGBTQ.

My trans people make a great mistake in believing that our acceptance by America at large may be mandated by the state or its Dem ideologues.

Trans are not Ls and Gs who integrate well because they don't appear different from ordinary folks. We are different. I define myself as a transwoman. I don't pretend to believe in immediate love for us.

The LG elite is embarrassed by us. They won't help us.

We have to help ourselves.

That means first survival.

Armed self-defense.

But also, avoiding bullshit.

The LG elite wants drag story hours aimed at children.

We don't. Those events never include trans and we don't want to stand alongside DQs as if we're the same as them. We aren't.

How to deal with trans kids is a huge challenge.

I was first taken to a doctor about my gender issues at 8.

I don't post on all that here because mentioning kids is prohibited except when PooPoo PeePee has an attack of incontinence.

There is also the problem that nearly all the content posted here is violently transphobic.

I refuse to deal with my trans transition in a lachrymose idiom.

But as Trotsky and Rumsfeld and Clausewitz taught us, we begin IRL, not in a fantasy.

America has a lot of growing up ahead of us.

I caught from your book that you are (grew up?) bilingual. I regret that I didn't take learning Spanish more seriously when I did the school thing, but here we are. I could have done a stint in the Peace Corps in South America if I had even thought of it. There's a long story why, but it isn't all that relative.


Being into getting things built, I have worked with a lot of Latins and I limp along with what Spanish I have. We work similarly - get into it, get after it, and get it done. We all worked by the piece for years, and that's how we gave ourselves a raise. We got along. I was included in lunch and in the passing of the jar of jalapenos. Had a lot of good Spanglish chats, laughed included. Stuff like that I don't think the average American (much less the Lit Libturd) even notices, much less appreciates. I have written a letter of reference or three to help a family stay here and keep its papers in order.


I don't know the trans community, but what you say makes sense. I'm not sure what the answers might be, but attempts to be accepting and the passage of time should be helpful. The sentient among us are all trying to get along in this busy, noisy, and often quite confusing world. A helpful hand is always beneficial.


We do have a lot of growing (up) to do. A good start would be a realistic assessment of where we are right this second.
