Today is 16th Novembria 12AS...a Eponaday

"Eponaday is The First Day. Epona is a very ancient Celtic Goddess of Horses. She is chosen because The Horse is central to Amazon Culture. She starts off the week with the symbolic 'getting back in the saddle'."

"Let us look at the structure of the week itself. The First, Second and Third Days are the 'official' Work Week for business, school, etc. On the Weekend, the Fourth Day is half and half; morning and early afternoon for finishing up the Work Week and the late afternoon and evening for playing and partying. The Fifth Day is not a religious holiday per se, but rather meant to be a day of relaxation and reflection."

~The past day or so Dr. Lamb and I have been chatting about how Mike Lofgren and Matt Taibbi have been 'on the same page' regarding our present social-political-economic situation. And he created a blog post about it. It is absolutely Required Reading.

Yours truly, upping the stakes as usual, then made the following comment:

“Where I suspect Richistan shall be destroyed, at least in this country, is when fracking causes the New Madrid fault to awaken and smash the central and eastern portions of the US. Only the US Military – still the most respected organization in America - will be able to handle that. And in the aftermath, The People will want blood and I would not be surprised if a junta steps up and gives it to them. And it won't be the blood of 'socialists'.

What would be the nature of this junta? It will almost certainly wear some sort of 'Christian masque', but whether they are True Believers or True Patriots will determine what the longer outcome will be. I am not particularity hopeful regarding the latter completion, though I'm not totally despairing in that either. Professional soldiers tend toward the cynical and the pragmatic.

But, as ever, more shall be revealed....”

Meanwhile, the Japanese have been busy. [the Japanese are always busy]

Her Prophet Speaks

...comment to a Sister...

"The Corporate State is the bastard child of Patriarchy. Once of the greatest Feminist mistakes was in trying to adapt to it and not overthrow it. Much of early Second Wave thought was founded in Marxism, but the obvious failure of 20th Century Communism caused that to be run down and discarded. However, what was overlooked was that these failed Socialist experiments were run by MEN! Women are far more suited to a collectivist construct then men. But even then, a Metaphysical foundation is required to make such work in the long run. 'Reason' is simply is not up to that task."

~It is presently 100° and 16% humidity. That's not a really comfortable ratio, but it's okay in my room for now.
