Who Really Owns America? The Banks, the Billionaires, and the Deep State
“The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don’t. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They’ve long since bought and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls. They got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they […]

Keeping Bees, Climbing Trees and Dysfunctional Fear
In latter day America, “amazing” is overused. For example, while I like ice cream, I wouldn’t call even the best ice cream “amazing.” But the conduct and teamwork of hive bees is amazing. Honeybees fly up to four miles to obtain forage/food. Given bees’ smallness in relation to humans, that might be like a human walking 500 miles for a meal. Of course, some humans drive cars absurdly long distances for a restaurant dinner. Many who do feel compelled to […]

Eu não sei se tu lembras, quando a tempestade chac… Raimundo Santana
Eu não sei se tu lembras, quando a tempestade chacoalhou nossas vidas — vividas, adormecidas em memórias fúteis. O nosso mundo, antes bonito e melhorado, de repente estava devastado, impróprio para reparos, desbravado e distante de qualquer recomeço.

Federal Prosecutors Flesh Out Their Case Against James Comey. It Still Looks Shaky.
On July 5, 2016, FBI Director James Comey publicly explained why he did not think Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump’s Democratic opponent in that year’s presidential election, should be prosecuted for her “extremely careless” handling of “very sensitive, highly classified information” as secretary of state during the Obama administration.

Inacessível Como explicar ao mundo que me tornei… Jorgeane Borges
Inacessível Como explicar ao mundo que me tornei inacessível? Que não foi escolha, nem arrogância — foi autodefesa. Foi o único jeito que encontrei de sobreviver às feridas que me causaram, de não me perder de vez tentando ser tudo para todos.
