It might be hard for young people or even middle aged people to understand why scenes like this one in rural Indiana and rural America are heartbreaking for someone like me to see. The reasons are numerous. Of course, there is the nostalgia. I had my first haircut in a barber shop much like this one. A little boy's first haircut is a big deal that they often never forget. More than the nostalgia, I am disturbed by the loss of the small town magic that I experienced as a child -- and the fact that it no longer exists as it did in the 1950's and 1960's. That magic was mostly centered around the sense of community that existed in self-sufficient small towns, where one could get pretty much everything they needed without having to leave town. And most concerning to me, I realize there is a good chance no one cares much anymore about who Mr. Voyles was or that his barber shop and store are gone. We are living in an era where compassion for those around us is evaporating -- if you want to hear a great new song about that very subject, listen to "Jasper" on Stephanie Lambring's new album "Hypocrite". If you want to learn a little bit more about "community", try listening to Tyson Martin's podcast "The Life of Phys". We are losing our sense of community and our compassion for one another. When we've lost those things for good, there won't be anything left.

Jack White - Hypocritical Kiss

  

"My temper got the best of me

And when I said that I mean

A know every single thing that I said was true

 

And I know that you're mad at me

But if you're thinking like I,

I think you'll see that you're mad at you too

 

And I know the feeling's strong

Strong enough to forget about all that I've been through

 

And it sounds obscene, but

Loud words never bothered me like they do to you

 

You're the boy that talks but says nothin'

A big game to the ones that you think will believe you

But you don't know how to read

The look on my face when it says, yeah I've read that book too

 

And who the hell's impressed by you?

I want a name for people that I know who are fallin' for this

You would sell your own mother out

And then betray your dead brother with another hypocritical kiss."

Eva was thinking about Thaìs. That guy around? Here? Where she felt safe. Where her heart was finally in good hands. Well...life has its' surprises, right?

No more hypocritical kisses. Only true ones.

No Woman, No Cry

Bob Marley & The Wailers

No woman no cry

No woman no cry

No woman no cry

No woman no cry

 

Cause I remember when we used to sit

In a government yard in trenchtown

Observing the hypocrites

Mingle with the good people we meet

Good friends we have, oh, good friends we have lost

Along the way

In this great future,

You can't forget your past

So dry your tears, I say

 

No woman no cry

No woman no cry

Little darling, don't shed no tears

No woman no cry

 

Said I remember when we use to sit

In the government yard in trenchtown

And then georgie would make the fire lights

I seh, log would burnin' through the nights

Then we would cook cornmeal porridge

Of which I'll share with you

 

My feet is my only carriage

And so I've got to push on thru,

Oh, while I'm gone

Everything 's gonna be alright

Everything 's gonna be alright

 

No woman no cry

No woman no cry

I seh little darlin'

Don't shed no tears

No woman no cry.

Things change, as well as people. But to be honest, if you're all the same, rude, selfish, self absorbed, egotistical fucking wankers, then i would rather be alone, than have anything to do with you.

Hate IS a pretty strong word, and i probably don't mean it when i say it right now, at the height of my anger.

I'm in no way bitter, just fucking sane, and can see right through you. But can you see, that i see, you? Probably not, seeing as your so wrapped up in your own little fantasy.

 

Hypocritical, maybe a little bit. But essentially, deep down, inside my hole of a heart, i have a lot of love. But im just afraid to show it. Afraid to tell people, no, you how i feel. Afraid to show a weak point, a weak spot, a place for you to play with my head. No, i won't let that happen. Leave me to my fantasy's, my day dreams, my nightmares, where only you and me will ever be together.

 

Just because, i'm afraid.

Oh I know I’m going to get called names on this. But I’m not going to play that game anymore. Like the sign at one of the TEA parties that said “it doesn’t matter what this sign says, you going to call it racist anyway.” When even the lawsuits now being brought by 30 plus state AG’s is considered racist, it is time to stop playing that game.

 

I’m flipping outraged even more so by Obama’s “victory lap” where he pretends this crap-sandwich is what “The American People were begging for”. Not one bit of graciousness in his “victory” but that nose up arrogance as his Social Democrats were literally breaking out the champagne.

 

I expect this will also flush out the usual Stockholm-syndrome “conservatives” who wring their hands and say “oh you can’t say that! People will take offense!”

 

Heck, I want to shake them up. This is supposed to be a post-racial era? Then deal with the fact that the President of the United States is the head of a gang that just raped our American principles.

 

I made it a cartoon and not a photoshop and the “woman” is green. Deal, people.

More Eye On Orion The Hunter On Pre-Morn Sky As Day Hunts The Night & Fate Hunts Us All - IMRAN™

What words can I use to describe this moment that one glance at this image wouldn't render insufficient? You can clearly make out Orion, and the belt, as well as Sirius burns super-bright in Canis Major. Towards the top left Procyon is shining proud.

How incredibly blessed I am to be alive, living in this bright white corner of our tiny planet earth, is something I could not give enough thanks for. The planet earth itself so insignificant in the grand scheme of things, as all these galaxies, and star clusters, dwarf our very existence, the world itself is lucky to still be a living planet.

Yet, so many of us do not even stop to look up into the heavens and see these mind-blowing sights like Orion (The Hunter) and so many other heavenly bodies routinely passing around us. Nor do we bow our heads in gratitude enough at even having the opportunity to have lived at all, much less all that we have experienced.

Orion and its companions continue to hunt for the end of time, until the end of time, disappearing from view even from the light of our Sun hunting the night, every night. Even our Sun, a mere nothing in the eyes of even of any one of the galaxies visible to the naked eye, would not miss one tiny flaming burst of Hydrogen when Fate, the eternal hunter of all of us, catches up with us. That is when our souls pierce places beyond the stars that even our living eyes with all our telescopes cannot peer at.

Yet we walk amongst our peers, looking down on others as if we are superior to others. We act as if we are made of more precious materials than others, when in fact we are all nothing but the same exact chemical dust and genetic miracle which came from stardust that we cannot even look up far enough to see the source of.

So, tonight, every night, peer into yourself and see what you find... a heart brighter than the brightest burning star, or a black hole filled with hate and bigotry. No matter how many attach labels to you for fighting for what is right, saving the planet, making the world a better place, promoting equality, justice, kindness, and love, take humble pride in that shining light inside you.

If, however, you are a hate-monger, defending injustices, promoting hatred, spreading lies, no matter how many holy books you thump, or how boldly false witness you bear, how hypocritically you worship demagogic satanic creatures made of orange flesh, you know in your own dark heart that you are all the darkness that the universe despises. Is that how you want to end?

There is still time to embrace the light that may be within you. Embrace people who spread a message of tolerance, equality, justice, freedom, love, and humanity. I pray you will still embrace being a decent human being worthy of being one with the stars, not someone who belongs on the ash-heap of history.

Allah, the One God, creator of all this in the universe, regardless of the names he is called by various faiths, the master of the universe and holder of the container which contains the Universe itself, thank you for everything, every experience, every sight, even every awe-struck thought just from my looking up... to place More Eye On Orion The Hunter On Pre-Morn Sky As Day Hunts The Night & Fate Hunts Us All. Thank you, God.

“China Bamboo Ink” became one of my absolute favourites in an eyeblink when I arrived to SL more than a decade ago.

Then the wonderful skybox disappeared.

Then I discovered the art of Fiona Fei at the One Billion Rising event for the first time.

Then… I felt at home again among the bamboo.

***

When cancer kills off two thirds of your close family.

When you sincerely dedicate yourself, your time, your loyalty, your imagination, to The Cause in RL and SL. When you support, promote, connect people, busy yourself, obey the instructions of your superiors like a nice girl scout selflessly volunteering to sell cookies to grumpy pensioners, come rain or shine. For The Cause.

When you are diagnosed with The Big C yourself.

When a little while later you realize quite many prominent promoters of The Cause principally care about their inflated egos, private business revenues in order to finance their next RL touristy trip around the globe, and play condescending benefactors along the line, “We are the good generous rich white Western guys, behold and be grateful, Africa!” A close-knit self-promoting cabal pretending to be Lady Bountiful, supported by a choir of sycophants who know their business will be damaged if they do not play along.

When you call out some of the hypocrites and you suddenly are The Devil, Satan, Thanos, all kneaded together, to be eliminated by some narrow-minded Bible Belt bigots.

When you finally realize all this does not matter anymore. What really matters is the smell of April rain in your RL garden, the fact that you can hug your RL love any time you want to, that the tomato seeds you planted a few weeks ago are in fact germinating and promising you some lovely pizzas in late August.

Then your life is starting to become more and more like an amazing minimalist Chinese ink painting. A few transparent brush strokes, a few colours. When it is a handful of little things that matter the most, and matter at all. The rest is fluff.

Pancakes are indeed are a "once-in-a-while treat" for me. It's not just the actual pancakes that make me crave pancakes, it's other breakfast items that are commonly paired with the pancakes.

 

Question:"Why not just get the other items separately? and skip the pancakes?"

 

Why would I want to do that? No one orders a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and asks only for the interior contents of the concoction. Pancakes are paired well with an array of items that are to provide the necessary sustenance of a typical lumberjack seen on the television screen. Someone like me who likes to touts how important it is not to spike one's insulin levels so early in the morning am being hypocritical in this debate, yes, but we're only human. And we need to live it up once in a while, so why not do so and have pancakes with your saturated fats. I say, eat away and enjoy! We can go back to our healthier lifestyles tomorrow.

Little girl what else I can do. I know you are little, u have big dreams, long way to go and um not sure how far u can go. Life is hard, tough and cruel. What could I do if u were my daughter. I am ashamed off for the comfort um enjoying. The society I belong is full with hypocrites. They talk lots of shit about child rights but they just ignore you. I have a strong intention to work on the condition of the boys and girls belongs to your commnity though um not sure whether my works would be recognized to anywhere. But at-least I can try and I will do it for u.

I am angry with God. But he makes such beautiful things that I can't hate him, even if he did take light away from me. I feel conflicted. There's so much beauty on flickr that I can't stand to be on it anymore. I am a hypocrite, and I can't stand it anymore.

I realized the other day that I finally, albeit unknowingly, collected all of the Jabba-related minifigs Lego has produced so far, with the exception of The Rancor. So, I thought it'd be cool to get em all together and look at em year by year, and give a few of my thoughts.

 

2003: Man, I love the classics.

-For some reason that original C-3PO kicks me into full nostalgia mode.

-I also think it's interesting that TLG released a Jabba's Skiff the year before, but only included Han and Luke. I would be fascinated to see what a skiff guard from the year 2002 would look like.

-EV-9D9 is a weird character to make in my opinion, but honestly it's such a strange figure that I kind of love it. Nowadays it would probably have a molded head and not be nearly as cool.

 

2007: Most of you are aware how I feel about the 2007 Sail Barge set, but I cannot stress it enough: I love this set.

-Bib and Chewie are there for padding

-It's cool to see the classic Boba fig make the jump from Light Stone Grey and brown to Light Bluish Grey, and reddish brown, with more defined accents on his helmet.

-It's also kind of cool to see the main heroes jump from Yellow to Light Flesh so seamlessly, while still retaining that classic "Lego Star Wars" look. Honestly they almost look cleaner this way in my opinion.

 

2012-2017: Yeah kinda got guys from a few years in here

-I know most people like Modern Jabba better, but he just doesn't feel as imposing to me. He's much smaller, and honestly it looks to me like he's melting.

-The rest of the figs though. Oh man. Look, I love the classics and always will, but these modern figs, all together, looks absolutely stunning.

-It's amazing how far the faces of Lego Minifigures have come, especially in the case of Han.

-C-3PO is from the 2017 Landspeeder set.

-Bib Fortuna's face is nightmare fuel

-It might be hypocritical to say, with my love of Skiff Guards, but Ree-Yees seems like a damn weird character to have made. Mostly because he doesn't participate in any of the major battles, or really has any memorable screen time to speak of. Maybe if a few other weird members of Jabba's entourage had been made? I dunno.

-How great is that Salacious B Crumb fig though? Honestly, that's just delightful.

 

Anyways, not expecting heavy feedback on this one, I just wanted to see what they'd all look like compared, and it's pretty neat.

 

Let me know what you think!

it seems to me that throughout the last weeks this sentence was used in my personal work way too much. well, not "way too much", but let's say, quite often. I don't know what it is about it, but apparently, this image is my idea of a good atmosphere. when every little detail of nature fills you up with such a joy and you just can't help it but smile. and I have to admit, as soon as I find myself in such situations, with the leaves fluttering, the sun shining on my skin, the birds flying over my head and the entire world seems to be at peace for this one flick of an eye ... it's just the same with french chansons, old coats and cups of tea. and when I told you yesterday that I actually feel good, I think that was one of these times that I really didn't care whether it could change soon, or not. and then, when I was listening to france gall this morning, I figured that it's really up to you deciding if you are feeling fine or not. in a way. I guess it's really hypocritical of me to say that. but maybe it'd be better to just listen to myself for a bit and don't put myself down again.

 

(day fifty-nine)

Unaware that someone was clicking away with a camera, oh that would be Hilt, oh and earlier I once said 'bolox to work in progress shots just paint! Hypocrite maybe? It's done and I'm sharing anyhow!!

- ¡ Eso no me lo dices a la cara !

- ¿ En cual de las dos ?

 

I do not like hypocritical people.

- You do not tell me that to my face!

- In which of the two?

Gone forever on Jan 1st: f4roadtrip.com/

 

F4 is over. We all knew it would come to this.

 

I simply had to make this video to tell my side of the story.

 

Nick Page totally lied about the Netflix deal, Thomas Heaton refuses to ever work with me again. Adam Gibbs rejects all offers from big media to make Season 2 because of his hypocritical 'principals' and then accuses Nick of using AI editing in his photography.

 

That's it, we're done. You'd think that producing the most ambitious landscape photography course of all time would bring us closer together, but no.

 

When asked about where the money went from Season 1, Thomas Heaton becomes evasive and immediately changes the subject. Nick Page gets caught harassing a Netflix executive over the phone while trying to pass it off as his ''Uncle''. A restraining order ensues.

 

The lesson to be learned here is that you should NEVER attend a Christmas party with co-workers that get on each other's nerves.

 

Don't even bother to watch the videos on the other guy's channels, you'll only find the truth right here in THIS video.

60020 approaches March West Jn. with 6L73 Peak Forest - Ely Papworth Sidings loaded stone, running a little over two hours late.

 

Although once a pretty much daily class 60 working, by 2009 it was only running two or three times each week, and not always hauled by a 60. Several years later the contract transferred to GBRf. 60020 subsequently underwent overhaul and gained DB livery.

 

This is one from my first few months of digital photography, which coincided with me taking a break from full-time teaching. At the time I was very poor at recording what I'd photographed, realising that in most cases you could read the number from the image and relying on my memory as well as saved messages from the Yahoo! Groups gen lists. But the Yahoo! Groups archives are long gone, and the saved emails on a Blackberry which no longer works properly (but I can access if I try).

 

However, I easily found the details for this one as I sent it (and a load of others) to Freightmaster Publishing for use in their annual Loco Review book (in this case the 2010 edition, which looked back at 2009 - would it have made more sense for the edition to refer to the year being reviewed?). They used most of what I sent, although I was disappointed that not only was there no reproduction fee, but they didn't even send me a complimentary copy of the book (Marcus Dawson did, with his Trainspots series) and I had to buy a copy (£17.95), nor did they even acknowledge they'd used the images. And for an organisation which used to (still does?) complain about enthusiasts expecting to get gen over the internet for free, I thought this was rather hypocritical!

As rejected by Global Photojournalism; Protest, Culture, and News . (No reason given).

 

To qualify this article l would like to go on the record that l have been instructed by some amazing teachers, all with academic titles. Furthermore, it must be said, that l have stated publicly, that l could not name, nor count, the number of exceptional teachers that have instructed me, because there where too many. This article is not about teachers, but a lack of exceptional ones. I personally find it distressing, because all children should be given the type of opportunity l had, and therefore a chance to defend themselves. This article is about a process, one that needs to be classified, and identified, with conscious critical thought. Critical thought involving observations. It involves observations that some of those with titles would or could be ignorant of. A situation, driven by those of systemic privileged, or those with ivory towers that render them unable to see.

All biological systems strive for survival, even small single cell organisms, like amoebas. They do it without seemingly thinking. But the difference between the amoebas, and the humans, is meant to be human thought, and human conciseness. Recently a new local high school was built in Shepparton Victoria Australia, and it was ironically named the super school. Already it has helped give the locals here an education, producing a lot of conscious contemplation among residents. It was the amalgamation of three out of three, or all the of the public high schools in the small city of Shepparton. Its construction left no options for some residents, and in the United States of America, criticism of schools like this new school, is commonplace. In the United States, the lack of choice as to where you can send your children in the public school system causes for some public debate. That debate now rages here, and for good reason. The results were highly predictable, with comparable results to that of America. The result has been that the police have been called repeatedly. There have been weapons, fights, and even the aspersion that a student suicide could be attributed to the new super school. Academic performance of the schools results are now unknown, as the education system now uses a sliding ruler, one that is remotely monitored by a now faceless group. It has resulted with any aspersion, that the school is a failure being foiled and deemed as a baseless slur. Some educated locals went into overdrive sighting personal responsibility of the individual and the lack there of, for some students and parents.

The defence of the hegemon, when the school had become a nightmare, for both the teachers and the Victorian Labour party, became a name and shame process directed at some locals, and their children. Some trying to defend the teacher’s union darling the Australian Labour party, which had help instigated the fiasco. A fiasco that was easily avoided if they had studied the American application of such schools. Was it ignorance? Was it Australian ego for the Victorian education board? Was it in the worst-case scenario, a deliberate act to produce a school that applied an American model? A model, that had historically repeatedly produced poor social outcomes. One that had already failed in the United States? If educated people, including some teachers where defending the super school, it raised the question, where were these teachers and educated people sending their children to be educated? Was it to the new super school? If it was, were they following the tried-and-true public-school scenario, of teachers and influential parents, making sure their children where in handpicked classes? Did they do as had been done before, making sure their children had handpicked teachers, and handpicked students for their children to study with, while the average people got the undesirables? Where they conscious of what they had given their children, or where they being deliberately ignorant? Because if it were found that they were guiding the lily for their children, what would be the public reaction?

How far some educated had shifted from sixties social liberal ideals; and it raises a lot of questions! Did they know what was happing? That it is happening? Where they unwittingly involved, blindsided by psychological drift? Psychological drift being a change so slow and gradual, that they were perceptually blindsided by ignorance, and or a lack of self-awareness. Did they not notice the change in their attitudes? Did they not critically look at what they were and are participating in? Or where they unwittingly led by mistaken ignorant logic? And in the worst-case scenario, was the new school planned? And where the resultant outcomes statistically inevitable, but desired?

This is an initial exploration of investigative journalism, on the outcomes of the worst-case scenario, and is based mostly on firsthand experience and observations. My apologies, for what may seem like a not so interesting picture. But the building in the picture resembles some of the prisons in which some of the students will go to serve sentences. It has been satirically joked, and it was not meant to be funny by some of the locals, that once they go to prison, they will be fully prepared. The building, and violence, will not be much different from the school, that they received their high school education in.

Most people are educated or warned of nepotism at high school, and or university. It is a self-serving process for those that teach it, as it helps classify hereditary royalty or Aristocracy as an exhausted, and or morally corrupt institution. But now this teaching, has become a matter of hypocrisy, for those that teach it. It helps define the institutionally educated as those that should control and distribute influence, because it is said, that they earned their positions via merit, and not via a process involving gross nepotism. Nepotism that is now openly practiced by the educated, when it comes to the education of their children, versus the education of the masses. Some openly fight, unquestioned, for causes that proactively push for their children, to be preferentially, and proactively treated like the children of people of aristocratic tittles were accused of. They even give themselves tittles at universities, letters before their names. It helps distinguish and make themselves distinct from ordinary people, or the new commoners. It even extends to those selected to represent them in the student bodies. But unlike the sixties student bodies that rallied against war, in the new higher education system student bodies, they actively participate in a new form of war.

It is now the new millennium, and there is a new form of warfare to avoid. It involves some people of title, but this is not an article on the aristocracy. It is no longer the song “The fortunate son,” sung by Creedence Clearwater Revival. A sixties song about the sons of the rich and influential not going to war. Now it is the fortune “academic,” the person who has a higher education. They and their children are mostly excluded, and do not have to go to war. I had previously reported that the new courthouse here in Shepparton Victoria Australia, was colloquially being called building B by some of the locals. It is B for Birkenau, and the name is partly why l write this. The other reason is that all the positions of power in building B, are held by people with academic titles. Titles involve in skewed eugenics and nepotism. The scenario faced is like “good cop, bad cop” tactics, but is applied by those with academic titles, not the police. It happens on multiple fronts. One such front is that large numbers of educated people openly promote or condone drug use, while others incarcerate as many as they can. Fifteen percent of all Australian prisoners are imprisoned on drug charges, out of approximately thirty thousand currently in jail, and many more are committed to psychiatric facilities because of it. If the objective of the educated was to reduce harm, they have abjectly failed, and the opposite has happened. Was it intentional? Where they trying to build a prison system as speculated by the band “The system of the down” in the “prison song.” And did The System of the down not see, or know, of the outcomes for those classified as ill, as they promoted in their song as an alternative? I once approached the subject on the Victorian Parliamentary Facebook page. In the description, l drew the analogy, that the incarceration, and medical treatment of individuals for drug use, was like Chinese re-education camps, and that they existed in Victoria, and they existed on an industrial scale.

Has this industrial scale of human processing, produced a form of unconscious time dependent opportunistic nepotism? Like amoebas, instead of critically thinking humans, had we all allowed it to happen? Had we all listened unquestioningly to the educated? And had it created a new form of nepotism. A form that helps the educated-on average, have their children precluded from a statistical death march. A process of prolonged involuntary distress, involving the battlefield of the court, the prison system, involuntary medical treatment and or classification. The result is, the children of the educated, on average get the better jobs, have better outcomes, have higher positions of power, and sway larger numbers of people behind their causes. The consideration of building B, and firsthand observations, raised the horrendous proposition of who needs a gas chamber, when you have statistics? The western world has in general shunned America for its seconded amendment, but a closer look at the west, even those countries without a second amendment of sorts, or an official death sentence, produced horrific observations. The realty is state sanctioned, systemic modern-day murder.

While at university l helped challenge the central dogma of biochemistry with prions, or the protein that causes mad cow disease. A bold effort, but l was young and idealistic. Amusingly it should also be noted that the lecturer l told it too, asked my permission to use it. He later taught me about a story of the two scientists Watson and Crick. As far as my memory servs me, he said, they had plied a French scientist’s son with alcohol, the result was his tongue loosened, and he talked about his father’s research. They subsequently wrote down what he divulged on a bar napkin. It was for the base pair arrangement of DNA (deoxyribose nucleic acid). And from it came the logical deduction for the final double helix model of DNA. Latter l would go on to joke, that Watson and Crick had won a noble prize in biochemistry. Not for the structure of DNA, but for the judicious application of a biochemical agent, or a neuron toxin, ethanol. I was being facetious. Despite some successes at university, it was hard for many reasons. Part of the experience of university was trying to theorise Protein specific proteases to combat the AIDS epidemic. Another was for the construction of proteins to treat the disease. As a result, l gained an appreciation of the complexities of medical treatment when it comes to who dies and who survives, and what role academics play in that process. The conclusion gained was that life and reality are quite brutal.

Academics already openly argue behavioural eugenics with psychiatric history, via genetic predisposition of psychiatric illness. Medical professionals in hospitals and criminal systems, universally practice it throughout Australia. A process that has been publicly shunned for occurring during the second world war, is practiced here in Australia, and the practise is commonplace. As a result, victims, and those suffering psychiatric illness are dosed with poison, and lives are ended prematurely. Slowly, chemically, euthanising thousands, with statistical outcomes. The statistics are, that many psychiatric medications cause on average premature death. Additionally, it is statistically observed that those taking most psychiatric medications are highly discouraged from conceiving, and or nurturing, an in-utero baby while taking their medication. Paradoxically psychiatric professionals discourage most people from stopping their medication; thus, a person is neutered with logic gates. On one hand, it is presumed that a person cannot stop taking their medication for their own safety, and or the safety of the public. And on the other hand, due to the birth defects or abnormalities associated with such medication, and for the sake of your baby, they say those classified, should not have children while being administered their medication. This process occurs for not adhering to the party line, not a political party line, but the new scientific line, one that involves a new group with titles. It is not ironic, that the rules of this process, are not in general being taught to the new commoners.…

Some of the new people with titles are the emperor with no cloths, and they cannot be questioned. l presume criminal history will be next here in Australia for the classification of genetic predisposition, after psychiatric predisposition has been fully fledged. A reborn process, for people of titles. One adopting the Chinese model of re-education camps, like those already here in the state of Victoria. An extension of the current medical model, of psychiatric treatment. A model for social conduct and classification involving social reward. A model that involves if you will have children or not. A process that relies on obeying the edicts of the new people of title.

Do these new people of title, wield absolute rule, as Justin Trudeau a high school teacher, and Canadian prime minister applied to his people for a brief time? It is a rhetorical question. He applied his title, like European aristocracy where stereotypically and historically accused of. By self-edict of law, he made his words unquestionable, and the words of new common people’s (those predominantly without academic titles) decent outlawed. Is this the new party line or the academic line, of pseudo pacifist proper gander? Is this what the new Aristocracy, or people of title do? Is this where you rely on the fallacy of lack of personal responsibility? An assumption involving privy knowledge, before socially engineering incidents via carefully worded classifications, and or, build a school that is most certainly bound to fail, and with it, classify whole blood lines educated in it, as inferior? Classifications using peer reviewed definitions. Peer reviewed definitions written ironically and hypocritically by those with new age titles. Articles which cannot be questioned by the new age commoner, but only by their academic peers. Once again it is rhetorical. All the while, they exclude their own children from the process, with their systemic peer derived privilege. It all sounds historically and remarkably familiar. And it happens while relying on the medical industry complex, and criminal industrial complex, for statistically predetermined social outcomes. It enables people to slowly but surely exterminate their undesirables. It is a proposition that has already happened and is currently happening.

The result is that via spurious association of genetic predisposition for behaviour, some families are being genetically classified, and weeded out via the behaviour of individuals in their families. Part of psychiatric dogma is to look for a family history of psychiatric illness then argue it is genetic. And that that genetic trait is no longer beneficial or needed. If one member of a family has had anything that could be classified as an incident, it is then argued that there is an increased chance of a genetically induced psychiatric incident or incidents happening in other family members. The result of such logic is the application of drugs, such as anti-psychotics, which on average drastically reduce the life span of the patient or victim. The medications, can, and are, forcefully administered, by people of new age titles. The additional subsequent logic gating, weight gain, and body odour causes the person to be seen as undesirable, or substandard, and lowers their chance of having children. The result is a death sentence for the patient, and a reduced chance of them having offspring. In the very least it is murder, if the diagnosis is wrong, and causes a slow, but sure reduction in the size of the victim’s family. As the application of this scientific dogma becomes more prevalent, or prolonged, the result is near genocide.

Personal statistical analysis of public psychiatric facilities is that they are full of people of lower education levels. But full of people that do not lack intellect. Why are the educated mostly excluded and deemed as being above it? They can afford both preferential systemic sympathetic medical representation, and systemic sympathetic legal representation, thus, avoiding the classification of being genetically substandard. Furthermore, those responsible for the classification and criminal punitive punishment of both criminal and psychiatric failings, are associated to those in academic institutions. It is a family operation, no different from the stereotype of aristocracy. When one of their own is brought before the court system, either in the medical or criminal court, it is raised that they are above average, and given on average, lower sentences, or even no sentences at all. They are deemed, as being inherently better than the average human, due to the letters or tittle before their name. It is a repeat of the stereotype of the old aristocratic system, of human classification. The current stereotype of those below the educated, is that they are being incarcerated, and medically treated, for both their good, and the safety of the public. So why are the educated spared more on average from this process, despite in cases committing the same crimes? I can identify no reason, other than their self-appointed peerage.

The observation is that behavioural eugenics, has turned to a practice of statistical genocide over an extended period, and it is a practice being mostly applied by the educated, and in favour of themselves. It is a statistical death march for some families. A prolonged process that involves the application of self-serving statistics, and a classification that ends in the lower chance of reproduction for selected individuals, and the increased chance of a family’s genetics being branded as dangerous or substandard. Thus, it negates any responsibility of having enabled the elimination of that family’s or group’s blood line, or in the very least, part of it, because it was, and is said, to be for the greater good. It is for the “uber alles,” but has nothing to do with German nationalism, and as it stands, it is predominantly males in the groups of families. Leaving the females on average in those families as breeders for those deemed as genetically worthy. Genetically worthy for the last 20 years has been those that had drugs, or those that had an education and there for had money. Those that had drugs, and there for a higher chance for reported psychiatric and criminal incidents, could break the nuclear family rule, but they walked a fine line. In breaking the law, they put their families or the males in their families on lists for slow, undetectable state sanctioned extermination. On the other hand, those with cash and an education, could break the nuclear family rule, having more than two children in an already overpopulated world. Both scenarios being state encouraged with government subsidies.

As an Australian, l found, and find, this scenario highly ironic. If the scenario were not real, it would be satire. It is shocking in its irony because the Australian colony was originally populated with predominantly criminals. According to the new eugenics line of thought, all Australian families, other than new arrivals carry as per the eugenics line of thought, a predisposition, of genetically predetermined behaviour, one that is now being openly classified, as a genetic trait. Doubly ironic, is the historical fact, that they even sent unwilling females from England, who were upon arrival, to be bred with no choice in the matter like cattle, and to service those men deemed as worthy. Nothing in the Australian colony, a previous penal colony, seems to have changed too much, just the family names of the families with titles or letters before their names now differ. And instead of hanging you, they now classify you, and your family, as a genetic medical issue, or defect. A medical issue to be slowly euthanised for the benefit, and protection of society, and the greater good.

The only consideration that this worst-case scenario leaves me with, is have the educated hit the philosophical slippery slope, or have they just thrown the new commoners down it? Creating a caste system via an education system. An education system, skewed in the favour of those with new age titles. An education system, giving systemic preferential treatment too those with new age titles, and their children. Is the new commoner’s child starved of an education? A quality education? One which is now harder for my geographical neighbours to find. An education, which helps prevent their public-school child or children, and their family, from a statistically higher chance, of a state sanctioned, and a state sponsored statistical death march. A march, that begins, and ends, in a trip to building B. A trip, with a higher chance of genocide at the end. And as it stands, my neighbours are being told,” let them eat cake!”

A different lens and a different location that still shows Skyline Silhouette Sleeping Figure. The figure reclines making a striking image, if it is not a figure rather fortuitous geology then still it is still there. The sun having set lights one cloud. If you see a cloud structure at the centre that look like a Goose that has just eaten the Sun then the glowing cloud can be imagined as the after Sun snort from the star devouring Goose.

 

Nature gives us an amazing amount of wonders and within her bounty we find similarities upon which we decide to have reflections and those can lead us on to further investigation with wondrous revelations. The figure created by the silhouette of The Pentland Hills is an amazing sight and she can transform her image from different positions even appearing as if she is pregnant from one vantage. Here the Sleep Skyline Figure that may have been seen as a Goddess, as Geology in steady transition and also held in so many regards that have been given and lost even as she is found in the landscape, is shown with her central navel locked features given at a greater scale. The uncorrected 16mm view from Minolta give a new perspective on this figure that I have been sharing for many years and also in several, maybe too many pictures recently.

 

The Pentland Hills are magnificent and here is a share of their beauty.

Red sky at night and other weather lore

Matthew 16:2-3, King James Version

2 He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.

3 And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowering. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?

Gospel of Matthew 16:2-3, King James Version.

Melbourne: This guy was protesting about the people protesting about an environmental issue - plastics and oil I think. I am not sure because the original protesting group had packed up and were leaving. He was calling the original group "a pack of hypocrites" because they were riding bicycles that used or were made from plastic and petrochemical products.

Santa Monica, California

 

Matthew 6:2

“So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.

1"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 2For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

3"Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye.

 

6"Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces.

-Matthew 7

Pro-choice and pro-life, it's all just politics. Meanwhile, I don't wish to anyone to go through abortion. It's a horrible experience. And you may - like me - never get over it. If there is a hope for you, if there is another option, please take it. I'm not a hypocrite who has no idea what she's talking about. Nor a man who will never get pregnant. No, I know. Time goes by, and it's been almost 6 years, but time doesn't cure the pain.

I don't even have the sonogram pictures. How I wish I had that at least.

It is hypocritical to tell a counselee to trust God while you lean on your own skills, effort, and rehearsed Bible knowledge. Sometimes more Bible knowledge only beads up on a hard heart, and prayer is often the only way to furrow the soil so the Word can take root. (Garrett Higbee)

L-R: Wildog, Thea, Black Canary, Green Arrow, Spartan, Felicity, Mr.Terrific

 

So this season of Arrow was very good, I really liked it. So much better than season 4. The finale is possibly my favorite episode of the Arrow ever and it was definitely the best finale out of the DC shows. So anyone that gave up on this show, this season is worth the wait.

 

**SPOILERS**

 

As for the ending this whole plot was just really great. Prometheus is so smart, and this was just such a great revenge plot and very character driven. This wasn't a star city exploding finale this was about the characters we have grown with over the show. Now what I'm guessing is that not everybody is dead obviously. Malcolm is supposedly confirmed dead, captain boomerang too? (Which is upsetting cuz he hasn't ever really fought the flash or been with rouges yet) I think William's mother is dead and then we will get to see a new story that involves Oliver taking care of his son. I think a main cast memeber will have died too. I'm thinking Quentin but I honestly have no idea if they would kill another lance so quick.

 

Wildog: at first i was really not a fan, but I like him a lot more now. His storyline with his daughter is really compelling Andy the episode that showed his backstory was one of my favorites. His and Quentins relationship as well as Curtis's is great. He can't die yet because he hasn't connected with us enough yet. And if Quentin does die that would be a great story for him in the next season.

 

The fig isn't the best, his hat is inaccurate but he looked weird without it, mask was hard to do but it's growing on me the more I look at it.

 

Fig formula:CMF baseball torso, CMF Dino hunter lady legs, CMF trick or treater head.

 

Thea: She really didn't have much to do this season, she left for a while and she just has gone down hill. One of my favorite parts of season 4 was Thea and her bloodlust storyline, but that was not continued. But I am excited to see where her story goes after the "confirmed"??? Death of Malcolm. But I could see her being a death but I feel like she didn't have a big enough presence this season to have an emotional punch.

 

Fig formula: Scarlet witch torso, friends hair, black widow head. Superboy legs.

 

Black Canary: I have really liked her so far, despite not having blonde hair which really bothers me. I like that she's an actual meta human and I look forward to some greater storylines with her. She won't die, they won't kill another's black Canary after they just got a new one.

 

Fig Formula: Agent 13 torso, WW hair, catwoman head, black widow legs.

 

Green Arrow: Man I love Oliver, Stephen Amell does such a great job and his performance in the final scene was so good. I'm excited to see how he deals with taking care of William if his mother is dead. I also love the temporary team he built for the finale.

 

Fig Formula: Green Arrow head, torso, bootleg Artemis legs.

 

Spartan: Diggle hasn't really done much for me the past I'd say 2 seasons, his and lyla's relationship is always interesting but I feel like he is very hypocritical with Lyla. I really like his and Dinah's friendship. He's not dead.

 

Fig Formula: city torso, cyborg head, nexo Knights helmet, Ronan legs.

 

Felicity: Olicity is back? Idk how I feel about that. I really enjoyed her dark storyline this season with helix and I loved the episode where she worked with them against Team Arrow. There's no way she's dead.

 

Fig Formula: Big Bang head and torso, superboy arms

 

Me.Terrific: Curtis is a funny character but I feel like he is just for comic relief now, I like his t-spheres. He could die? But I doubt it.

 

Fig Formula: batman legs, luke cage head, cmf mad scientist arm, Harley Quinn arm, Finn hair

 

I have another pic coming of arrow that involves mostly villains.

But ya great season and finale.

 

P.S. whatever happened to Ragman? Lmao

I have bottled this up all my life but the time has come to air it.

This is my loving, kind hearted, wonderful mother.

Mum has had a tough life. She married the wrong man. Mum was "blindly in love". My father was from a totally different background. Her marriage was a disaster for the first six years until she divorced him and was given full custody of the children. I have unhappy memories of those days. In the 60's divorce was uncommon and difficult as you needed to have grounds/proof for divorce, in Mum's case, Grounds of Cruelty.

I was the only student in my class with divorced parents and that really saddened me. I dreamt of happy families and The Brady Bunch was my escape from reality.

Mum struggled for years as she worked full time to support three children, moving from flat to flat when the rent increased, at least a dozen times during our childhood. In those days child support was pathetic and we were poor. We lived from week to week. Mum never received any additional help whilst my father moved ahead ruthlessly in his career without responsibilities. Not many people realised what we went through. I try not to think about my past as it is too painful.

 

In 1975, we were forced to live with our father when our mother became ill and also struggled to look after us financially.

We didn't want to go! I was 15 and in Year 11, my two brothers were 13 and 11. We were uprooted from Melbourne and moved to Sydney, new schools and a new life and not one we wanted. But we had no choice in the matter! How could the State or the rest of the family let this happen whilst our mother still had full custody of us as a result of a divorce due to Grounds of Cruelty? I was let down and devastated. As soon as I had completed Year 12 I couldn't wait to leave Sydney and return to Melbourne.

 

To this day, Mum continues to rent whilst my father lives a life of abundant wealth. In our opinion and countless others, friends and family alike, my father owes her. His conscience owes her. He owes it to us. This is all we ever wanted, what Mum deserved and what we all wished for. However no-one has been game enough to speak up to my father as they are too scared.

What happens in your childhood can haunt you for years, it never leaves you completely. The past scars, the scars heal but there is always a scar. I suffer from anxiety at times. My middle brother is an alcoholic. He was beaten as a child by my father. My youngest brother has other problems and tries to emulate my father and has become like him.

We have been the "meat in the middle" of years of bitterness between our parents and that is so damaging. A word of advice from someone who has been there is PLEASE DO NOT INVOLVE YOUR CHILDREN!!!!!!!!

 

During 2008, what my father did to our family was so vindictive, so nasty, so despicable, so uncalled for, so psychologically sick it defies belief. He blackmailed my husband and emotionally abused me through a series of malicious emails that went on for many months. The abuse was so intense that there was one point where I could not see how we would ever have any relief. There is a fine line here and when someone pushes you to this point you can understand how it only takes one more thing to send them over that line. I was on that line. I feel he wanted to push me over the edge so he could say "I told you she had problems". What sort of father does this? Father's are meant to be there for you and support you in times of need, not try to send you over the edge.

Similarly, what sort of brother tells outright lies to his father with the ultimate objective of getting the father totally offside, unless he has an ulterior motive? We know why. He wanted us out of the will. Spreading lies in order to enrage a father's revenge is in itself so wrong.

 

My mother warned me years ago that my father was a pathological liar and had a narcissistic personality.

In 2008 we had professional advice to wipe my father, his second wife and my youngest brother from our lives for our family's sake. I gave my father a second chance thirty five years ago. I really wanted to believe that he had changed and thought he had to a degree, yet I have had the wind knocked out of me big time and I have nothing left any more, nothing, just emptiness. I should have listened to my mother.

All I ever wanted from my father was love, support and respect and all I ever received was criticism, negativity and now obvious hatred.

 

My mother wrote this poem about her ex husband:

 

DESPICABLE TOM

 

Predator, Conman Sleazebag and Liar...

These are the traits to which Tom will aspire.

Bad tempered, foul mouthed, vindictive and mean,

A more fiery nature is yet to be seen.

He seems to go out of his way to make sure,

That he upsets the lives that he claims to adore.

A hypocrite - he will address you with love,

Idolize you, indulge you and coo like a dove.

He is specially mean to his only daughter,

When he prays upon her - just what he not oughta!

He's caused her such anguish and endless distress,

Upsetting her so that her life is a mess.

She worries all day and can't sleep at night,

Even to the point that nothing seems right.

So ill has Tom made her, she had to attend,

A doctor who advises her wisely to end,

This awful tension, this horrible stress,

By ignoring this pig who's left her in a mess.

And even pretend that her father is dead,

This outrageous varmint and that's enough said!

So that's what my daughter has decided to do,

Is to kill him in her mind and bury him too!

  

I am simply hoping that I will feel slightly less weighed down.

Oh, for some of the cloud to lift...so I can see the sun again.

I’d rather spend time with a

Rough around the edges sinner

Than a well-polished hypocrite

70 x 100 cm, acrylic on canvas

 

Ideology-based morality refers to a system where moral judgments, right and wrong, are derived directly from a specific political, social, or economic ideology. Rather than relying on universal ethical principles, actions are judged by how well they align with the goals and dogmas of the chosen ideological framework.

 

Ideology-based morality operates in several distinct ways:

 

Subordination of Universal Ethics:

 

In this framework, traditional universal moral rules—such as truth-telling, fairness, or the sanctity of life—are frequently bent or selectively applied. Actions that might otherwise be considered unethical can be justified if they serve the "greater" ideological goal.

In-Group vs. Out-Group Dynamics: Ideologies naturally create a divide between those who adhere to the belief system and those who oppose it. Morality often becomes "tribal," where in-group members are viewed favorably, while out-group members are demonized or dehumanized.

 

Moral Licensing and Hypocrisy:

 

People who strongly adhere to an ideology often unconsciously grant themselves a pass. They may excuse or rationalize immoral or hypocritical behaviors in their own leaders or peers as long as those individuals champion the correct overarching ideology.

 

Moral Foundations:

 

Psychologists, such as those studying the Moral Foundations Theory, note that liberals and conservatives often lean on different moral pillars. Liberals prioritize care and fairness, whereas conservatives prioritize loyalty, authority, and sanctity. When morality is shaped by ideology, these foundations act as a filter, dictating exactly what is deemed "good" or "evil."

 

Ultimately, ideology-based morality closes the mind to objective evaluation. By adopting an ideological lens, individuals evaluate situations with a predetermined outcome, converting everyday ethical decisions into political, social, or cultural battlegrounds.

This is an experiment. I'm interested to know what happens ...

 

I posted Week 84 yesterday as a reaction to my own reliance on flashes and self-portraits in general.

 

I said that using flashes made me a lazy photographer and that had to change. And it does, but the whole time I wasn't entirely happy with the photo so I set up something else and got this photo.

 

Using a flash, obviously.

 

So I'm being a bit of a hypocrite posting this. But I'm not posting it to replace the other photo, I'm posting it for ... an experiment. But I might replace it if I feel so inclined.

 

If you're interested the initial idea for this photo comes from those B-movie style clips where there's a cinema full of people with 3D glasses on.

 

Strobist info: Umm ... trying to remember ... SB600 centre(ish) bounced off the ceiling. I might have snooted or goboed it ... I tried with and without. There are some versions with a reflector to kill the heavy shadow but I don't think is one of them ... flash power was ... umm ... around 1/2 power I think. I know I fired it by CLS.
