Topix Underground

It's dreary and rainy here. There had been some  kind of drought that everyone was talking about but last night it looks like we got almost an inch of rain...whatever that means. Winter's coming, but not for a couple months. Right now it's like leaf-color, pumpkin-buying, apple orchard kind of season and we live in the epicentre of where the day trippers come to spend a magical afternoon in the countryside. The more affluent and vulgar among them will like it so much that they will figure out a way to borrow a million bucks to have an acre of trees bulldozed and replaced with a trashy McMansion, with the optional lanai, recycled plastic gazebo, playscape and lease BMW SUV for her and then send their ill-behaved, entitled, little loud-mouthed brats to school with our kids. Once again I feel like fleeing my homeland - a peculiar twist on the whole concept of 'white flight'.

There’s a cemetery down the road where people from the 1800’s are buried. That place is stunningly beautiful with all the bright leaves. But it’s not exactly the kind of joint you want to throw a picnic.  I went over there once. Some of the graves are weird to the point of being sinister…like a woman’s first-name only, or “Baby [doe]”.   They were just Willy-Nilly digging holes and throwing bodies in them with no explanation. I don’t think they had cops back then.

Also guys from the Civil War. They have these off-the-rack Civil War soldier grave markers. I tell you this, if I was living in Michigan and my kid got killed in the GD Civil War, I’d be as pissed off as if my kid got killed in like Vietnam or  Grenada…..WTF did any of that have to do with anyone here? None of that dumb shit was worth getting your legs blown off for - few things are.

I was a fan of Queen Elizabeth. She used to be the President of Canada. She was more of a man than that weasel Charles could ever hope to be.

So, one quick phone call and trump is on putin's side again. 

Or was he always?

Ot seems you want a WWIII. People in Europe are scared because all neoliberals there want war. They don’t want to negotiate. They don’t give a flying fuck about Ukraine. They just want a big war, population reduction, and to gran as much wealth (preferably all of it) as they can.

So give putin want he wants, and when he comes back wanting more, what then? 

If it comes down to WW3, then now is the time while russia is weak.

Personally, I have become a fan of assassinations.  Catch putin flying and end him. The next russian czar will fuss for a bit, in public, but that would be the end of it.
