Guess what time it is?!

It’s time for our regular prayers!

Not only do we have our special jab’oliday inclusion and a portion of the Neo Gospel according to Jenna, the devoted @JennaPinkyPoo22, but also this *has* to be a good one, guys.
We have heard Xi stepped on a lego and is moody and not pleased with our insolence. He may do some zoom calls to lay down some extra smite. So with feeling now please. Show them all you mean it and keep the chairman in your joyful heart. Ya ready?
———

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻So say we all...
I repent oh wise, Covidians.
See my shame and sincere wish to be cleansed of my unholy affliction.
Anoint my lips with sacred coverings.
Strike the cruel delusion of individualism from my mind and the self from my heart.
Quicken our paths toward sanitization and purity as we offer both sanctuary, and total submission to @JennaPinkyPoo22, The Devoted who wishes not only to be draped in cloth for the rest of her days but wishes the same for the wretch am I.
Although we are not worthy, she, @JennaPinkyPoo2 has revealed herself as the sacred living germaphobe’uddha. In her infinite generosity she has sworn to guide us on our path toward absolute sterile serenity and trust found only in the truth of social justice science.
May we be the vessel to fulfill her desire to never have been born or always publicly bare the holy burden of the N95 veil upon our faces, thereby holding her sacred safe space.
Yet. Hear us still, great Covidians! We humbly offer to be a tool for your great gloved hand as it lays waste upon the growing blasphemy of mask slippage.

Awoman.

It is not trivial or selfish to say we must get back to the business of being human. It is a fact and necessary for survival and sanity. Those who claim that we are, and they have been doing all to protect the most vulnerable and preserve life now must, if they are sincere,
approach the future with a more rational and honest set of guidelines and not fear investigation or questions in the false justification of community over the individual. It is a false binary.
We must be allowed to choose and learn about what options are available to us other than standing in what are no more moral or well managed than Lysenko’s broken promises or Mao’s empty fields.

A thread (brain dump) cause I can’t sleep and I’m finding a certain recent NY / member of the “literati” or “intellectual” spooky as hell. They kinda remind me of the stereotypical mean girls. Maybe that’s what’s keeping me up. 😆 They’re baaa-aaack! Image
Why does it appear that so many seem to delight in public humiliation, cruelty and even the implication of “cancelation?” Do some never outgrow it? The more people claim cancel culture is a myth the darker the fantasy that seems to drive it appears (to me.)
The Maoist/Stalinist lite meets Freddie Kruger LARP would be nothing if the “performative” on display didn’t have a history of well, leading to huge body counts frankly.

What a strange way to concede that cancel culture not only is very real, but that it is violent and quite likely delusional. But it is a concession nonetheless, which in the same way the author was amused at the prospect, is quite “funny.”
She wrote “Nobody loves canceling Bible characters more than God does. Ask Lot’s wife. Or the residents of Sodom and Gomorrah, or the firstborn children of Egypt.”
Now I’m not one to ever belittle satire. However the satirical works when it amplifies the absurdity of a formally defendable position; Johnathan Swift being a popular example. The author may claim this was satire, but it isn’t. What it is is equally as revealing about a

I shared this on my FB page and asked, can ya really blame him?

I was half kidding. I also assumed someone would think of what I did pretty quickly and waiting for the comment to mention what I assumed was obvious.

The timing. I was sure someone else had thought of it.
But no one did. 20+ comments in people discussed the morality or bad sense or libertarian perspectives. Someone even said I’m thinking about doing that. No one said what I thought was obvious. Have you thought of it? Is it obvious to you?
Here’s a clue...recognize it?

If we were animals...
People would gaze at their screens and weep at images of our once vibrant and diverse eco system now barren.
Pop stars would sing sad ballads while the image of glassy, longing, memory filled eyes gazed back,
A number rolling across our touch starved bodies
Promising the chance to care just a phone call
And a few dollars a month away.
Children would draw us as stick figures, sad eyed and alone after
Watching puppets pull empathy out of their bellies like pumpkin pulp
Pinned proudly to refrigerators, parents gazing down with mouths like jack-lanterns

More on Meyerhold and the tragic lure of promised utopia that too many fall for. As artists we must remind each other of these facts even if those who teach and guide or inspire us don’t. We owe it to those who came before us. And to those who have tried.
Some quotes from another article and commentary. allarts.org/2020/02/peter-… “Theatre is a very dangerous weapon,” once wrote Russian playwright Vsevolod Meyerhold. This phrase, penned by the director in the 1920s, reverberates through Peter Brook’s recent play, “Why?,”...
“Why did Meyerhold once declare the theatre a “dangerous weapon”? What was so dangerous about it? The twentieth century provides numerous examples of the most gifted artists being seduced by regimes that promised heaven on earth...
