I just...If you abhor cussing than read no further:<br /><br />I just got done typing so hard that I broke one of the pop up feet on my keyboard and had to repair with duct tape.<br />This is what started it.<br /><br />Instagram blocks Elaine Thompson-Herah for posting videos of her own golds.<br />The IOC owns property rights for the games and strictly enforces them. Within minutes of her post she was blocked off IG by IG - BAM! they've since allowed her back on without any videos of course.<br /><br />What the FUCK!!!<br /><br />Facebook who owns IG has allowed how many millions of posts with misinformation and lies that have cost thousands of people their lives. Before you say reader beware-I call bullshit. FB claims all kinds of legal mumbo jumbo shit and "tries" to contain the worst of it. <br /><br />Not for one second do I believe that FB and it's corporate leader(s) give one iota of concern for world humanity being placed above corporate greed. <br /><br />I hate that they now own IG and I daily question my morals in continuing on the platform. The only reason I have not left is many friends of mine only use IG to share and I would miss them.<br /><br />That's a crap excuse I know but those folks are important to me. Kinda like would I waste all kinds of fuel to drive far away to visit a friend- you betcha even though most of the time I conserve fuel like a mother %^$#@!. (have filled up car only twice in 2021 and that included round trip to CA)<br /><br />"A 42 year old fitness enthusiast died of covid. Climbing mountains 4 weeks before death" He believed the lies. He thought it was just "a flu" <br /><br />No one is allowed to yell fire in a public place?<br />Here is what I found _ <br /><br />"The most stringent protection of free speech would not protect a man in falsely shouting fire in a theatre and causing a panic. [...] The question in every case is whether the words used are used in such circumstances and are of such a nature as to create a clear and present danger that they will bring about the substantive evils that Congress has a right to prevent."<br /><br /><br />The origin of the phrase is from the Supreme Court of the United States in the case Schenck v. United States, 249 U.S. 47 (1919). It specifically rules on the limitation of freedom of speech (first amendment):<br /><br />The original ruling is this:<br /><br />The most stringent protection of free speech would not protect a man in falsely shouting fire in a theatre and causing a panic. [...] The question in every case is whether the words used are used in such circumstances and are of such a nature as to create a clear and present danger that they will bring about the substantive evils that Congress has a right to prevent.<br /><br />You seem to think that it should be illegal, but only if it results in a panic that endangers people. If people ignore you, you think it should be protected by your first amendment rights.<br /><br />That's not how the law works. The law tries, among other things. To establish norms for human behaviour. For example, you will be punished for driving an automobile while intoxicated, even of this does not result in you running over somebody.<br /><br />"In the words of the supreme court: If your actions "are of such a nature as to create a clear and present danger", the congress has the right to prevent you from doing so, despite the first amendment."<br /><br />Yet the lies continue and folks who may not have access to correct information or are swept up by the "non news" of FOX etc and who blindly follow a fascist mentally unstable idiot will continue to die, continue to spread, continue to help create new variants, with FB being morally responsible for their deaths. <br /><br />OH please don't let a young athlete share her medals, her accomplishments after decades of work but let every dickhead who can type out crap on their phone have a voice, regardless of the harm...oh but yeah it isn't costing anyone money to lie, only costing lives. <br />oldgreymareprimitiveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18070774314265663535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089729732491247582.post-62661103247736537992020-01-12T18:18:29.526-08:002020-01-12T18:18:29.526-08:00You must be kidding me!!!??

I haven't followed your blog for long, but I am so happy I took the time to read this post. <br /><br />Today another mass shooting, more thoughts & prayers. So f*n tired of this time in history. I believe in the right to bear arms but when the majority party in control is controlled by NRA money and rich soul-less donors, this will never end. <br /><br />No party affiliation from me, just an honest soul, brought up knowing right from wrong, disgusted with where we are. I've never paid attention to politics prior to this morons election. Knowing my parents were lifelong Republican and my upbringing, you can't tell me that the is truly representative of the Republican party. If so, I am so lost, no way I can comprehend how. It's like not even knowing who they were and for that matter who am I? And the Evangelical element is unbelievably disturbing.<br /><br />This will end, good will prevail. <br /><br />Rondahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06460576446134631203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089729732491247582.post-9790994079806345722017-04-25T10:32:11.132-07:002017-04-25T10:32:11.132-07:00So for all you who voted for the idiot..His latest...So for all you who voted for the idiot..His latest bragging that his ratings for "his interview with the associated press beat those after 9/11." THAT DOES NOT GIVE YOU PAUSE? How about right after 9/11 he bragged that now he had the tallest building in New York. What does he have to say or do to finally wake you up? <br /><br />Do not tell me you voted for platform, not the man. THAT IS NOT POSSIBLE when this man represents our entire nation and he is clueless as to his responsibilities. DO you hear him speak? He uses vocabulary that is on the level of a 6 th grader. No disrespect to a 6 th grader. In fact a 6th grader with a conscience might make a better president, especially if he listened to advisors who actually might know how important the issues are. Now he's dropped the mother of all bombs..Does anyone other than me see that this is an ignorant teenager bragging that he has the largest penis? Oh and it's the smartest and the best and the luckiest etc on and on.<br /><br />Once more I implore one of his three wives, or some buried, head in the sand, republican to step forward with the buried "facts" and end this nightmare and become an historical hero. Even if you have a gag order in your divorce- step forward- some lawyer will protect your money. Even if your party suffers defeat after- be the hero for millions and maybe save the planet.<br /><br />oldgreymareprimitiveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18070774314265663535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089729732491247582.post-1303681544363652882014-03-28T06:37:55.290-07:002014-03-28T06:37:55.290-07:00Holy b.u.c.k.e.t., Z!!!

Yes, Z, I deliberately am a noreply, because I can no longer read any more emails like "thanks for visiting me... yes, I really am that fabulous". Enough already.<br /><br />I blog because I want to connect with others who share their creativity and real selves. If they never have time to visit me back, I'll get it and move on ~ but no more it's-all-about-me emails.<br /><br />Ahhhhhhhhhh. Feeling much better.

This is something I...So glad you added this bucket. This is something I would like to post on my blog, but I could just as easily go find a hornet's nest and bust it open!<br />I have good friends, they are kind, talented, smart and interesting. I am happy to have them. But I have noticed something recently. Whenever I get together with several of them, mostly by their invitation, they only talk about themselves. No asking me how I'm doing, what is rocking my world, what is rocking my boat, nothing. They just go on and on and on about their thing and I sit and listen and try to offer advise when needed or just nod and hear what they are saying. I wonder why there is no interest in my stuff, its just all about their stuff. Sometimes I would like to talk and get some advise or sympathy too. I have one or two friends that give and get equal time, that's it...... I wonder if the others read my blog and figure they already heard what I have to say, so on to them..... I have one friend that has a few too many drinks and starts to put me down. It is becoming really irritating, and same thing, talk talk talk only about herself. Whew, it's all so tiring!<br />My cousin had a friend that I met only once, Sarah. I would have liked to have her for a friend. She seemed genuinely interested in me and made me feel very liked by her. It's funny that I remember her so well and only met her so briefly. She had a quality that I would very much like to have, if only I knew exactly what that was!<br />So there, it was on my mind, and I had a few moments to chat, thanks for the depository :-)Tracey Broomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14560971496423789576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089729732491247582.post-18848366663993805272013-06-27T14:09:54.658-07:002013-06-27T14:09:54.658-07:00Suzan, just now reading your post about your denta...Suzan, just now reading your post about your dental stuff and insurance. I hear you loud and clear. Thankfully, I have dental ins. through my teacher's retirement plan that I pay for and I am over-65, so there is that positive note. HOWEVER, I could not agree with you more on the cost of insurance and the rich-get-richer slide in our U.S. economy (thank you insurance conglomerates, Wall Street, and those in the shirts!) I am putting off dental work because even WITH my ins., the cost is out of this world to have two old crowns removed and replaced. I DO NOT go on Virgin Island jaunts. I jaunt out to my back porch in the morning with my coffee or hot tea and just hope I can keep the bird feeders filled once or twice a month!!! That's reality for most of us!!!Lanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04200781034921759015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089729732491247582.post-28631987907056173612013-06-26T18:44:33.268-07:002013-06-26T18:44:33.268-07:00Sorry to hear about your tooth, this sucks.

Now who charges thousands for anything so small as that, maybe thousands for a car would be good! Needless to say the tooth got decay over time and hurt like hell, still I put it off, hundreds to have it pulled, I suffered for quite awhile. There isn't too much left after paying $911.12 a MONTH for health insurance. I have complained about these prices for years, and have even called the govenors office several times to complain. When health insurance for the self employed is more than a mortgage this is retarded to say the least. How much will be to much I ask. This goes into the ....it bucket and the bucket gets kicked to kingdom come and back.

The same people seem to tell so many lies they forget what they've told you and contradict themselves, which reveals the truth even further. If you are living your life in such a way that causes you embarrassment so that you lie, then perhaps you should examine your choices? You should also realize that friends talk about events among mutual friends and quite innocently your lies are discovered this way also. Then they all confer and wow you should be embarrassed.<br /><br />and yes.... ENOUGH WITH THE POISE PROMOTION!<br />we know they pay you to say it..enough with damn pop up ads...

S...Ha ha only you Z would think of this great idea! Sorry it took someone dissing your post though... I want to know what mind could possible come up with a negative on that lovely post??? I have been fortunate concerning comments, the closest negative comment came with someone calling me a "hoarder even if it is cool stuff" and that just made me laugh because my kids threaten to call Hoarders all the time! <br />I do have beefs but will take a rain check as I still am feeling pretty good from all the "D" rays in Az.<br />Love you GirlRebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10278401609888310410noreply@blogger.com
