Ages ago it was suggested (By somebody other than JtC) that somebody else, specifically moi, post periodic fundraisers for the site. So. My calendar says it is time for me to do so.
Some of us disagree with some others. We are strong enough to tolerate disagreement. There is no hatred here, and little vitriol that I've seen.
Macabre, murderous circuses like Charlottesville and the corresponding media furor do not shake us from our principles of reason, truth, and civility. They do not destroy our friendships.
Some of us have the vision of a number of small, local meet-ups for Caucus99ers, with the possibility later of a centralized once-a-year gathering.
My laptop, the computer I was using to communicate regularly with c99p, is dead. It died yesterday afternoon.
It died of dihydrogen monoxide (DHMO) poisoning. The DHMO entered the machine whilst it was running, from an unintentional spill, and I have been unable to bring it up since.
Been a little down over the last few weeks or so, thought it might be time to take stock and count blessings...
So much to be thankful for this New Year! Still breathing and, whoa, still married.... last week it was 46 years! We both have survived critical illnesses and really want to see SS, Medicare, or Medicaid get improved. Will work for that!
Revolutions through out history, while not all the same in nature or cause, do have a common thread that runs through every revolution, the disenchantment of the masses. This isn't to say that just because we don't agree with the prevailing Zeitgeist, we should over turn the apple cart so to speak. I firmly believe that we have to expose the prevailing Zeitgeist for the fraud that it truly is, through a sustained information campaign, ie a propaganda war if you will.
Following CA Democrat's lead, I made a bunch of images highlighting what I find best about caucus99percent.
Please read Dallasdoc's essay and pledge a monthly contribution to Caucus99percent.
Maybe,
the confusion
is breathing
Common rains
bullshit reins
frustrating the veins
of gold
of childhood
of being
human
of being alive
How can I touch you
be with you, be you
when exchange rates flutter
pushing hearts to purchase
souls by tens of thousands at a time
or one by one in car seats
Help
pools of high mountain water
It appears that I am like many (or most) of you in that I landed here after becoming disgusted by the never-ending trainwreck that has become Daily Kos. Also like many of you, I have logged out of Dk for good, and while I occasionally stop in to see what's happening, I very seldom click on anything. Most of you who still post there are kind enough to crosspost here, and I'd rather give my traffic to the founders of this site.
