Plumbers and disloyal mothers; David Ford says..
"For
the last 5-6 weeks I have mostly been out of markets and just
watching and waiting for something to make sense fundamentally and
technically as intraday currency volatility and direction did not
marry up with my initial expectations. TBH I had been waiting for
another down leg in equity and spike in the USD as the Global economy
proceeded to unwind. Last week however, it became obvious that the
rate of change in political polarisation has stepped up another gear
in advance of the US election. This time we have Liberty Proponents,
COVID Skeptics & Anti Vaxers coalescing and Redpilling even more
people as Leftist Democrats attempt a further divide and conquer of
the sleeping populace in light of the lost employment and crashed
economy. It dawned on me that this political war is about to go very
mainstream - and already we are seeing massive protests around state
capitals everywhere all over the globe. People that are awake (and
those on the fence that realise that their freedom has been snatched)
are getting very antsy. Eventually this is going to escalate into
violence and a breakdown in trust of law enforcement. You don't need
to be a PHD to realise that the focus of these Globalist efforts is
to solely capture the imagination of sheep in the US in advance of
the November election to turn people against the Government (Trump)
for supposed mishandling of the Virus response. This implies
instability. Unfortunately Trump is willingly handing destructive
control back to Blue State Governors on reopening - hoping that
everyone will blame them rather than him, but this is a flawed
strategy IMO. This will only exacerbate the political conflict, the
morbidity stats, and the grassroots rebellion. This is transforming
into a tinderbox of civil unrest in my opinion that will greatly harm
the international perception of the USD in the coming 6 months. It is
this Republican Vs Communist conflict on Domestic US soil in advance
of this coming election that will commence the killing of confidence
in Public US Assets. This implies that US equity will rise to new
highs before and following the election with the USD suffering also
as funds seek home currencies to primarily de-leverage their exposure
across the board. Although it sounds counterintuitive, I'm inclined
to like everything long against the USD." DF mindset

No wins today, but words are back.
Today
was horrific, despite all my best imaginings. I did not win and so I
fell, and the reality was set, and and I am stuck with the full
horror of it. This blossomed into a breakdown of sorts - tears and
curses against god, all of which proceeded from my blocked little
hovel of a brain. I woke up and battled through meditation to feel
the low sit of the equinox near. Only now just remembering that it's not just the end of a year, but a whole new body of a decade that is
forming. I am struggling with all the bits of me that crumble,
scattering at the bottom of my floor; the place where tides lap and
dip and soak my outlooks; the crumbs of damp bread scatterings that make no sense.
So there is more rage and blame, and silence; and I am called to
trust with patience. But I am ripped and torn, by directions that
leverage hard, with their non paying fates that hide and square the
corners. It's all nonsensical when it's quiet. But there has been
good. Apple cider vinegar, and bilateral suprapinatus armpit holds.
Hands over ears, that rake down the turbulence, till there is yoga
and tai chi again. Both of which caress and serve to boil me down. The way I
fear, right now, is that there will be no return to fullness, and that
nothing good will ever happen again. Meanwhile I am mesmerised by the bits
of me that have fallen. But today I did make a patch, the markings of a new diary and the first rough scribblings. So there will be something tangibly physical to offer to the coming of the new year. MB

These revolutionary times..
"This is a viciously toxic form of men’s sexual rights activism that has managed to rebrand and reframe itself as a civil rights movement."

Liar Liar..
"So Husky,
so palpably rehearsed, Tony Blair presented himself as some sort of
restless penitent, likely for the rest of his mortal days to be
self-tormented about Iraq.
Our
former prime minister called a press conference to give his reaction to
the Chilcot Report. Dressed as though for mourning, he stepped towards a
lectern in a drawing room of Admiralty House, Whitehall.
A
check of the voice. A shuttering gaze as his brow furrowed. 'I express
more sorrow, regret and apology than you may ever know or can believe,'
said Blair the victim.
Verily,
a desert boulder, so skilfully wrung, might bleed. Oh, the theatrics,
the dry-mouthed pauses, those Derek Jacobi eyes with their squint at
some distant destiny. Say what you like about Blair but he is a
world-class tragedian, as silken an emoter as ever trod boards on Drury
Lane. "

Blood is blood
“ Those we fight, lacking our industrial machines of death, kill up close. But killing remotely does not make us less morally deformed. Long-distance killing, epitomized by drone operators at Air Force bases within the United States who go home for dinner, is as depraved. These technicians make the vast machinery of death operate with a terrifying clinical sterility. They depersonalize industrial war. ...
“The mechanized, rational, impersonal, and sustained mass destruction of human beings, organized and administered by states, legitimized and set into motion by scientists and jurists, sanctioned and popularized by academics and intellectuals, has become a staple of our civilization, the last, perilous, and often repressed heritage of the millennium,” Omer Bartov wrote in “Murder in Our Midst: The Holocaust, Industrial Killing and Representation.”
We torture kidnapped captives, many held for years, in black sites. We carry out “targeted assassinations” of so-called high-value targets. We abolish civil liberties. We drive millions of families from their homes. Those who oppose us do the same. They torture and behead—replicating the execution style of the Christian Crusaders—with their own brand of savagery. They rule as despots. Pain for pain. Blood for blood. Horror for horror. There is a fearsome symmetry to the madness. It is justified by the same religious perversion. It is the same abandonment of what it means to be humane and just. ..” Chris Hedges
