Good morning Free Rangers.
I'm making plans for the summer and early fall this morning. Gotta make those reservations early!
Will be cat sitting for Memorial Day weekend, so will probably be home.

Blackstone owns over 300,000 rental units. It also hates rent control laws.

You may have wondered at some point why colleges have decided to spend enormous amounts of money cracking down on peaceful protesters, instead of negotiating.

Happy Mothers Day!

I think it is time to birth a new nation. America is broken, a Zionist warmongering hegemon that is in free fall. Sadly I don't see a way to politically save ourselves. I think the sons and daughters of this dysfunctional nation must take control of our own lives and live a better, more fulfilling life by escaping the system. I've included some different approaches below involving building community or going it alone. And then there's the news so we can keep track of the coming train wreck for the US.

Afternoon folks!

We've got some great music this week starting off with Muddy Waters' classic Woodstock album and an album by New Orleans piano player Cousin Joe. After that we've got serious blues-rock with albums from Duke Tumatoe & The Power Trio, Downchild, Roy Buchanan (I think it's his last one) and Creedence Clearwater Revival's Bayou Country. After that we've got DC localish band Root Boy Slim's first album and we finish off with a straight 80's rock album from the Swimming Pool Q's.

Enjoy the tunes and have a great weekend!

(Source- SBS/ondemandkorea.com) This historic image of General Jeon Bong Jun, also known as "Nokdu" (mung bean), was interposed with the scene recreated in the 2019 South Korean historical drama "Nokdu Flower." The scene depicts Nokdu for posterity after he and his military staff were sentenced to death. Nokdu was the leader of the Korean peasants' revolt that arose out of the decadence, corruption. violence and poverty of late Chosun. The peasant revolution in the late 19th Century precipitated a pretext for the Japanese invasion and occupation of Korea which didn't end till August 1945.

I think that it is important to note victories, especially when all of the PTB are aligned against the antiwar movement. Especially when the crackdown has been so unnecessarily brutal (and costly), which has actually caused this antiwar movement to spread and intensify. Top universities in the UK have begun joining in.
