Burning it Down
Author: Raine    Date: 01/12/2017 14:02:32

We all saw it yesterday; we saw the shitshow that is our future. Make no mistake, this is all happening. I was going to write about it all, but what is there to say? We are being gaslighted on a daily basis. This is a slow moving disaster happening in real time. Shit is on fire, there is no denying it.

Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons,
Packed up and ready to go
Heard of some grave sites, out by the highway,
A place where nobody knows

The sound of gunfire, off in the distance,
I'm getting used to it now
Lived in a brownstone, lived in a ghetto,
I've lived all over this town

This ain't no party, this ain't no disco,
This ain't no fooling around
No time for dancing, or lovey dovey,
I ain't got time for that now

Transmit the message, to the receiver,
Hope for an answer some day
I got three passports, a couple of visas,
You don't even know my real name

High on a hillside, the trucks are loading,
Everything's ready to roll
I sleep in the daytime, I work in the nighttime,
I might not ever get home

This ain't no party, this ain't no disco,
This ain't no fooling around
This ain't no Mudd Club, or C. B. G. B.,
I ain't got time for that now

Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit?
Heard about Pittsburgh, P. A.?
You oughta know not to stand by the window
Somebody see you up there

I got some groceries, some peanut butter,
To last a couple of days
But I ain't got no speakers, ain't got no headphones,
Ain't got no records to play

Why stay in college? Why go to night school?
Gonna be different this time
Can't write a letter, can't send no postcard,
I ain't got time for that now

Trouble in transit, got through the roadblock,
We blended in with the crowd
We got computers, we're tapping phone lines,
I know that that ain't allowed

We dress like students, we dress like housewives,
Or in a suit and a tie
I changed my hairstyle, so many times now,
I don't know what I look like!

You make me shiver, I feel so tender,
We make a pretty good team
Don't get exhausted, I'll do some driving,
You ought to get you some sleep

Burned all my notebooks, what good are notebooks?
They won't help me survive
My chest is aching, burns like a furnace,
The burning keeps me alive




Now, I was going to write you a scathng blog, but the writers formerly knowm as gawker wrote it . Read it all, trust me.






here is the paper to get it done:


and

Raine

Same, and I feel completely powerless on top of it all. I think he's going to get everything think he wants cause the Repubs are in lock step and we still in fighting and more moving forward. I love that our party values so many ideas and opinions but good freaking God can we not get our shit together when it matters.

He's used the self-sacrifice angle before, when he decided to run into Putin's arms instead of face up to the crimes he committed and the lives he put in danger. I'm not falling for it.

Good morning. Going into the city for orientation with the outplacement agency today. Hopefully, I can orient myself to getting up early again.

Hope you get a job soon. Imagine all the extra cash you'll have in the bank! Don't be afraid of relocating, if it comes to that. Time for a new chapter in your life.

I had a moment a little bit ago. I dislodged a bit of bitterness about Cheetolini that I hadn't thought about until just then. The man is an affront to every single Ameican who served in the 2nd World War. The US entered that war after a right-wing totalitarian nation attacked us.We went to war to defeat everything that that tiny handed human turd admire. Fuck him and his fucking lackeys. Fuck the wilfully ignorant red state bubble dweller fuckers who think he's the best thing ever.

So, Trump is taking credit for the Amazon jobs now too.

I wonder what Bezos has to say about that.

Hopefully, Bezos will correct the record and let him have it.

I fear where we are heading and I am afraid that we will see a great deal of strife in our nation. Trump has some supporters who have no qualms about being violent against those who oppose him.

Mondo, the link did not work and the page is listed as not existing.

In some good news, my interview on Tuesday went well and I had a busy day working yesterday. I am glad to be home as we have been hit with freezing rain today.

It's set up using image tags - no wonder I can't copy the text itself.

It wouldn't be Ben if he didn't say something totally stupid during his confirmation

I just called Marco Rubio's office. I had to thank him for grilling Rex Tillerson yesterday and to vote against his confirmation.

I hope that someone takes an interest in acquiring the business and running it to the standards that you have come to know and love.

I just wonder how much they can get done in the next 8 days, and what kind of follow-up will happen beyond that if any.
