What's Hip in Your Life

I've been on a weight loss kick and have rediscovered my old wooden salad bowl. I've also blown the dust off the Tassajara cookbooks and have been whipping up some excellent salad dressings.
As of the end of this past April I've become the proud owner of three bantam hens. That's something to surely be happy about

 

It may look like a cornball topic, but I believe it's something worth reviewing and reflecting upon on a regular basis.

 

Mosaicthreads-- I have wiped my 59 year-old ass with corncobs, newspapers, oak leaves, grape leaves, etc. I prefer to wipe my ass with toilet paper, and fuck the consequences to the earth. Idiots like you make me happy-- you and your foolish ideas are the reason Republicans will prevail forever.


Most of us don't swallow your lunatic Chicken Little alarums-- ah, sweetie, the sky ain't falling.

Let's abort another baby-- you liberal dum-dums just don't get it , do you.

 

I live in the greenest state in America and still there is pollution--I am 3 miles from the beautiful Columbia Gorge and the Columbia River-Because of greed ; the salmon there are becoming an endangered species--the rivers are not safe to swim in anymore-The peolple of this area have been recycling everything for many years now and it has really kept bottles and cans out of the woods and hiways-If your state doesn't have a bottle law; get one-all metal-plastic-paper-and glass should be re-used-Our trees are going fast and thats our air! There has to be a world wide movement to save this planet-Maybe we can elect a president who thinks more about green plants and trees instead of green oil money--It takes leaders to lead-and we are lacking that now-vote green--

Well, RobSpace, I've read that one of the reasons salmon are decreasing is because of all the seals and killer whales that lurk about the river mouth. In the good old days we drove those slimy flipper-fucks off-shore, where great whites settled their goddamn hash, you bet!


I guess the Indians had nothing to do with this? Aren't they raking in enough bucks from their tax-free gambling dens? Now, they gotta exterminate what remains of the salmon?

Wise up.

 

Thanks for a good reason to post!
My hipness "within" comes from my peaceful soul, my connection with All That Is, my kindness and compassion, my mother-earthness, my care for all beings, my social, environmental and political awareness, my home cooking, my good lovin', my earthy sense of humour, my sensuality, my love of diversity, and my conscious focus and desire to make the world a better place before this particular sojourn on earth comes to an end.
Physically, my clothes, my hair, my home environment, my animals (includes my own pets and animal rescues), palliative care volunteer work with the dying,
my environmental and peace activism, my courage, my willingness to speak up and speak out.
"With great kindness and compassion, rescue everyone"
Love to all fellow hippies XXX

 

GoddessOm is delusional. She thinks people are rational. Try that bullshit in Africa. They'll rape you, then put a tire around your neck and burn you. I would happily support a germ-warfare that would kill Afro-Americans wherever the genes might find them.


A question: why does nobody hate Orientals?

Maybe because they work hard and learn to speak unaccented English within ONE generation?

 

Llike to make up thought experiments-little puzzles that i try to solve in my head.Read the LA,NY Times,Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post.

 

My family, my pets, my heart, my soul, my people and people so lovely like you.

 

Hi Thudly, I understand where you are coming from...

The world you see was created by all of us, and I know we can do better. It looks dark because we made it that way by living each day with so little kindness, hope and love, and such a large amount of self-centredness, ego, greed, despair and discrimination (fear). We are all responsible for what we see.

I see a much gentler world, because that is the world of my making. If I see violence, ignorance or suffering, I do something to change it.

I don't expect to change your mind, but I am sorry it is such a dark world you see. Instead of being so hard-boiled you could use that awareness you have to start building a better one, you know...You could put all that passion to good use. I wonder what happened to make you so fearful and closed-off.

Anyway, each to his own...Love & Peace

 

Goddess Om wonders just what has broken my heart to make me so cynical. So hard-hearted.


Well.

My first girlfriend committed suicide, 20 years after I last saw her.

My best friend drowned in front of me, calling my name with his last breath, but I couldn't help him-- I damn near drowned myself.

I witnessed a man committ suicide jumping off a bridge.

On a roofing job, a man with 6 kids fell off and split his head in half. The brains were coming out his eyeballs.

The woman I left my wife for, died of liver abuse.

My other best friend, drank and drugged himself to death at the age of 55.

Another friend, got run over by a car at work-- he was 29 with 3 kids.

Want more?

 

Wow- I figured it must be pretty bad!
I feel sorry that you have seen so much of the horrors of life, and on the way had to learn about futility and hopelessness.
I guess it is also a part of life to realise that there are some things that you can't change, and some things you can...like the old AA Serenity Prayer...
Nothing I can say can make those things go away, and I can imagine that it must leave you feeling really angry with life/god/fate or whatever...of course you would be.
But you are still standing, which is a testament to your strength and courage.
All the best...

 

Play or learn guitar and sing the songs that were the soundtrack of that age.
