Changing Of The Guards

 


If you haven't watched a South Korean movie or tv series, you are missing out on some clever stuff.

I have watched and enjoyed, 'The Squid Game,' 'The Extraordinary Attorney Woo,' 'Catch the Ghost,' and the movie, 'Train to Busan.'

Right now I'm watching the Netflix series, 'The 8 Show.' It's listed as a comedy/drama. There are some humorous moments at the beginning until each episode becomes increasingly violent and stomach churning. It's 'Lord of the Flies' meets 'The Squid Game.'

I won't go into detail but the setup is incredible. Eight people are invited to play a game where each player is on a different level. One has the least advantages, while eight has the most. In the beginning they work together to share food and water. Eventually, the upper four players want more and treat the lower levels like their playthings to control and hurt. 

The procession of increasing violence is brilliant and disturbing.

It certainly reminds me of what we are going through in this country. The upper levels are taking while the lower levels suffer. But do not despair. The lower level players have a plan. At some point the upper level believes they are completely in control they start to become complacent and lower their guard.

Big mistake. I think we, the lower level players, are still in the "wtf?" stage. We haven't quite gotten angry enough to actually retaliate. But, there is only so much push one person will take. I'm not sure where that shove is, but I think as citizens who are used to speaking there minds and enjoy having nice things, there will be a revolution. 

A word of warning, however. We cannot become what they are. When our time comes, we need to protect and respect the rule of law. It will be a difficult task given the fact that I would like to see the orange man, Miller, Musk, Kennedy, Noem and the other upper level monsters suffer greatly. There won't be any satisfaction when they are charged with crimes against humanity because I will always know this should never have happened in the first place. There will just remain profound sorrow that we have sunk this low as humans.

An Empty Vessel

He fills his head with Bible quotes  to silence the storm inside  An empty, hollow shell he mimics in disguise  You were not wanted You were unplanned  You are a nothing You have no stand  He bows his head and speaks in tongues  to still the flames of rage the pretender, fake, the fraud  hiding in plain sight You were a mistake  A thirty minute accident  a constant regretful memory  who seeks reason to breathe  from holy ghosts  and devils in red ties  the more you take the lesser man you are smoke and mirrors a shifting shape unseen  You are a mistake  You know it well A fake, a fraud, a lie. *Yes, I'm thinking of a certain someone we know.

Benny, Benny And No Regrets

  It's just so hard to keep up with maga creeps. Here's Benny  Johnson, the guy who started the rumor that DC was a cesspool. He also claimed his house burned down while his family was in it. He's a liar. His house never burned down. You really can't believe much of what this asshat says because he has a habit of playing with facts. He also likes to steal other people's words. He has been fired and suspended numerous times for plagiarism, at least 41 times. It just boggles my mind when these people blatantly lie, then are outraged when called out. People like Johnson, Trump and Leavitt have probably lived their whole lives creating a make believe existence where lying is the norm. At some point it just becomes routine where they find lying acceptable and necessary. To me they are empty shells of mindless walking automatons. They live in a bubble of falsehoods. These are the people in charge of our country.  The NYTimes has done a story about Pinocchio Johnson. I dec...

Wishful Thinking

  Bluesky got my hopes up with rumors of Trump's possible passing because his bronze glow up and swelling cankles were incognito for a few days. He also hasn't been ranting on False Social. Naturally, I went looking only to find he is still breathing, but looking like the grim reaper may be his caddy. It's a weird social phenomenon when normally nice people are wishing for the death of one orange man by natural causes. You know we could hurry this along by other means. Just saying. At this point I don't see anyone stepping up to the plate. It appears only Magas like to murder and buy guns like the left buys books. There is another way, which is as likely as the other idea and that is, Congress growing some balls. Sorry, ladies but you can grow a pair, too. The demented old fool is making rules left and right, illegal I must add, yet, crickets come from Congress. I truly don't understand the game plan if there ever was one on the Maga side. It's clearly not about...
