THOUGHTS, MUSES AND RANTS OF JAH

 Camp Is Not Just For Children That feeling when you recognize you are a voice with a story the majority of people will never understand because of their own privileged experiences. If we have learned one thing from Trump’s Narcopath egocentric rallies it is that he likes to sing and dance. He should feel right at home out in the Georgia sun getting fresh air and exercise with the camaraderie he demands. You know, dancing with the boys to entertain Ivanka. Or is it Melania? Maybe Eric and Jr. https://youtu.be/QVGgyGXPDJ8 https://youtu.be/zBn5aIfZElE Yeah, them southerners figured out a way to extend slavery that is as prevalent today as it was then. In fact, many northerners claiming to support civil rights even picked up on it. But hypocrisy is a topic for another time.  https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3AD50B1060A87945 Martin Niemöller was a prominent Protestant pastor who emerged as an outspoken public foe of Adolf Hitler and spent the last seven years of Nazi rule in co...

Here is something I posted three years ago. Facebook just reminded me about it. I read it, and although it pertains to that time, I believe the message is worth repeating in consideration of the 2024 Election. What do you think? “THE GOOD THING ABOUT SCIENCE IS THAT IT’S TRUE WHETHER OR NOT YOU BELIEVE IN IT.” Neil deGrasse Tyson Those who post non-mask comments are really inconsiderate. They don’t have any current scientific experience on the front lines today and base their dangerous conclusions on what they learned a year ago or more. Is it that hard to understand that we are dealing with a “novel coronavirus?” That means “new,” a disease doctors and scientists have never seen before. They are learning as they go, some of which is horrendous, giving us the best advice they can, which can change as they gain more and more experience with COVID-19. It can lead to a long, excruciating death I would not wish upon my worst enemy and definitely no child. It irks me that so called arm chai...

 A CONVERSATION I NEVER WANTED TO HAVE I am against everything Amy Coney Barrett is for. She is against everything I am for. Good thing we never dated. She is a deliberate slap in the face to the memory and legacy of RBG. https://youtu.be/biIRlcQqmOc I am asked:  What religion and nationality are you? I will tell you: I never know how to answer questions about creed, religion, nationality, etc. I am asked: Why is that? I will tell you: I am confused by the responses.  I ask: Why are there not American Irish? American Italian? American Canadian? American Native? American Africans? The only true commodity is American Cheese. I am asked: WTF??? I respond: Okay, I am a French Canadian American Jewish First Nation African Jersey Boy, but not necessarily in that order. I am asked: Can you name someone you resemble? I will tell you: I am not sure of his name, but he is a Chief. Take a look: https://youtu.be/Wvc1I6jsPUo I am told: You don’t look African. So I ask: What does an Af...

  Possibly Donald J. Trump’s worst nightmare. Judge Chutkan is no Judge Aileen Cannon. She is fair, conscientious and ethical. May justice prevail. I have many friends, relatives and neighbors who support Trump. I avoid confronting them. Still, I can’t help but wonder if they realize how my opinion of them has changed because of their support of Trump. This opinion is not political, but based on my knowledge of Trump since 1969 when he supported and voted Democrat. I can’t ignore what I have learned during that period. I just wonder how they can discard the truth and support a madman?  I wonder if those who only got their news from FOX these past years are still watching FOX News for their perspective of the news? https://youtu.be/NsN3OqD24t8 Now that the January 6 indictment has been published, all I hear is how many MAGA Evangelical Republicans testified before the Grand Jury about the truth against former President Donald J. Trump. Republicans who supported Trump and whose ...

Our views about religion depends on where we were born, when we were born, where we grew up and who our mentors and influencers were. Change any of those and our views on religion change along with any religion we might be taught to follow or forced to follow. As a result, my views differ from yours because you did not walk in my moccasins. That does not make your views right and mine wrong, or vice versa.  It is ironic that a people who convinced themselves that they were/are holier than others because only their religion is the true religion, have nothing they consider sacred beyond a collection of fables. For me, that is typical of barbarians which always brings to mind the well researched history, “We Were Not The Savages” by Daniel N. Paul. In the known universe, it is sad that the Europeans were not advanced enough, intelligent enough, and less arrogantly influenced by their religious beliefs so that they, too, would have protected the natural development of indigenous popula...
