An Observational Rant

On By StevoIn anthropology, critical thinking, nature vs. nurture, UncategorizedLeave a comment

I honestly don’t think some humans care at all how others view them when they are in public…and maybe they do not even realize they are in public.

What follows is some of my over half a century of observational evidence of this bizarre and problematic phenomenon:

“Adults” who are loud talkers insulting/bullying/demeaning the person(s) they are with in some bizarre attempt to draw attention to their target(s) with the goal to make some lame point or expose/humiliate, when in reality they are making themself look supremely infantile. Here’s an idea: grow the frak up you 12 year old little brat!

People talking loudly into their mobile communication device as if increasing the volume of their voice will make the person on the other end of the “line” hear them/understand them better.
Here’s an idea – noone anywhere wants to hear your incoherent, chimplike hooting, no matter how important you believe you are…and your device has a super sensitive microphone that can detect a whisper, AND the ape on the other end has a volume control and will turn you down when you get annoying. Be respectful you filthy, matted, hairball.

People watching videos/things on their mobile devices at max volume (or any audible volume) in a resturant, waiting room, bus, train, plane, ship, etc…this is happening 20′ from me as i type these words.
Here’s an idea – be respectful of others and get some earphones/buds you obnoxious drooling troglodyte!

Parents/people loudly yelling hate/ obscenities/absurdities at their unfortunate offspring.
Here’s an idea – don’t have offspring if you cant control yourself and treat them with the respect they deserve. Are you purposefully trying to lead by your awfully hateful example and make them a carbon copy of your disgusting hateful self?! 

People talking loudly at each other across a span of space occupied by other humans (ex. train, plane, bus, waiting room, resturant etc.). Here’s an idea: walk closer to each other and converse at a reasonable voice being respective of the others in the room. Whatever it is, it is not all about you, you miserable stinking troll.

People who crowd up to the elevator door as if upon arrival it will be magically empty and is there only for them. Here’s an idea: push the call button and stand back you impatient wank walker.

People who blow their nose in a crowded public place such as a resturant – even with a napkin or handkerchief, this is just disgusting and nasty.
Here’s an idea – have some respect for others around you, step into the bathroom or outside and blow your festering air hole all you like you putrid steaming snotnozzle.

Impatient bully types who just have to be first in every line, que, or intersection.
Here’s an idea you greedy tantrum tossing tool – have some respect for others and wait your damn turn.

People who disrespect our only planet by littering, defacing nature with graffiti, poachers, and those who exploit nature for personal gain without any consideration for future generations…

…and so many more. If you have encountered similar lack of respect from the seething masses of humanity then feel free to add your own examples in the comments.

Heavy Thought Time

On By StevoIn anthropology, critical thinking, earth, Environment, nature, nature vs. nurture, religion, Science, space, UncategorizedLeave a comment

To create a life is rather easy, people do it all the time.

To create good people, that is possibly the most difficult thing we will ever do.

We have all heard about the nature vs nurture debate, and from where I stand as an observer of nature, I see many deep connections between all living things everywhere I look – connections that run like fungal mycelium throughout the deep-time tapestry of life.

These ancient genetic connections are incredibly apparent to me because I see them in myself. I was adopted as a newborn and spent the next several decades with wonderful, loving parents who nurtured and cared for me, giving me a comfortable home, an education, and most of all, the ability to think for myself. They let me choose my own path – they did not force on me any specific religion, politics, or any other worldviews – they let me choose for myself who I was to become. They were the nurture side of the coin that I received in this coin toss called life.

On the nature side of the coin: From a very young age, my curiosity about the natural world around me was incredibly strong. I have always had a deep empathetic nature and a deep connection to animals, nature, wildlife, and the silent teachers that exists in the forest, an endlessly flowing river, the rolling ocean waves, and the deeptime knowledge that exists in every rock, tree, mountain, water drop, and in our own DNA – these are teachers that only some of us can hear.  Due to these deep connections to the natural world I always wondered if I had inherited this intense love and focus on nature from my biological family.

Then, in 2018, I used the tools of science to find my genetic family and my suspicions were confirmed – my love of nature was indeed genetic – my father and all my family members were great lovers of nature and all things wild and wonderful. My father and I shared so many things in common – even down to things like favorite foods, TV shows, music, vehicles, wildlife, it is really astounding how many deep connections we share.

So for me specifically, the nature vs nurture argument is no longer a debate – i am a product of both of these things.

From my point of view, and from my lived experience – I believe that at birth we carry within our genetic code, a singular sequence specifically written by the experiences of our parents, grandparents, great grandparents and far far back into deeptime, to a time before we gave ourselves names, before we harnessed fire, before we were even human. This ancient code sequence is the nature side of the coin. It is a hard written instinct stamped into our DNA by the experiences of all our ancestors. This ancient code is expressed,  like it or not, by our consciousness.  But what the heck is consciousness anyway?

In an attempt to answer this age old question we need to flip the coin back over to the nurture side again and ask – what about our consciousness?  Where does it come from?  What is it that allows us to look in the mirror and say “Hello me, i recognize that i exist…i think therefore i am.” 

Where does the consciousness  originate?  Some say it is all in the mind…and maybe this is so.  However, I sometimes wonder if it comes from outside the body…another realm of existence that we have yet to identify.  Maybe we and all life on earth are part of this unique and massive energy field…this Singularity…and we are greatly limiting ourselves when we think that we are separate, apart, alone individuals.  But in reality…a reality we have not discovered yet because we are not yet ready, not evolved enough to experience that reality and understand it…maybe we are all connected deeper than we could ever imagine.  Maybe when our body exhausts itself and ceases to exist, maybe our unique consciousness – our soul – retreats back into this unknown realm, this undiscovered country, to rejoin with the rest of the whole where it then shares its lifetime of experiences with its “peers” afterwhich it is reset, and then born again as another lifeform on earth…or another planet in the vast cosmos – and the cycle continues.

I do not believe in omnipotent beings – a god or gods – and therefore i do not believe a devine creator being gives us each a unique consciousness – at soul – at birth.  I have this hypothesis that at birth, our consciousness is a blank clean slate…like a new computer waiting to have is blank but eager to learn storage drives filled up with all our unique photos, music, stories, history – the unique things we save close to our hearts and minds – the things that make us, us.

Maybe we are all born with this same basic, “blank slate” consciousness.  Maybe this blank slate consciousness is exactly the same for everyone – it is a carbon copy of whatever the first one was, whatever the first human being was.  Then, as we live and grow and are exposed to our family, friends, society, the media, religion, politics, science, culture, war, love, hate, bullies, hippies, laughter, passion, sickness, trauma, etc – maybe it is only after this exposure to all these unique outside experiences and influences, coupled with the genetic expression of our instinctual nature knowledge passed down from our unique evolutionary lineages, does our unique consciousness truly becomes ours, and only ours.  It becomes unique to each human due to the unique experiences each of us has experienced as well as the deep genetic connections we brought forward in time from our unique ancestrial DNA.

Maybe the “me” and “you” parts of our thinking brains are exactly the same until they experience life, the universe, and everything around us during our first few years of life – and then we become the unique individuals that we are – we become the you and the me that we see in the mirror.

If all this is so, then to guide an innocent young human into adulthood as a parent, teacher, or mentor, is possibly the greatest responsibility one could ever hold.

Choose wisely.

Think before you speak.

Be a good human.

Do good things.

Another Thought Experiment

If a highly advanced, long-lived, extraterrestrial species from another galaxy landed on Earth today and told us we were all part of a long-term planetary biology/evolution “lab” experiment designed and implemented several million years ago in the attempt to discern the direction biological evolution would take under the unique environmental conditions offered by this planet and its star…

…and/or…

If Jesus (or any other religious prophet) returned and/or appeared – and he was a dark skinned, barefoot, long haired, “herb” smoking, robe wearing, bisexual, “hippie” “dude” whose pronown was “whatever man” and he was asking all of us to destroy our walls, weapons, governments, religions, superficial labels and divisions, and all coexist and live in harmony…

Recent events suggest that many people who call themselves religious would probably deny the flesh and blood evidence standing in front of them, and cry “demon,” “witch,” ” infidel,” “imposter,” – and then try to crucify and/or dissect them.


Sadly, the fearful, preconceived notions of what many believe their god and/or extraterrestrial visitors should be are far too limiting and microscopically small, to allow them to see the grandeur of the cosmos as it actually exists, and all the amazing possibilities it may hold.

We are our own most limiting factor.

The biggest bully

On By StevoIn anthropology, conspiracy, critical thinking, UncategorizedLeave a comment

I detest DJT.

Just in case you are wondering why I can’t stand everything about the man…and this is only the beginning.

None of my reasons for disliking this miserable, vomitous, troll has anything at all to do with politics. I have loathed this toxic troglodyte since I first learned of his noxious existence in the 1990s, and my bullshit detector went off loud and clear.

He is the biggest, most obnoxiously brainless bully to ever walk upon the earth.

How can anyone with 1/2 a brain and a fraction of a conscience even begin to stoop so low as to choose to commit the greedy, hateful, and absolutely despicable things he is guilty of and been accused of?

How can someone just ignore the fact that the person they are intentionally harming is another living, thinking, human being?

It is obvious to me that this disgusting, vile, drooling orange gangster of a person, as well as all his despicable friends, associates, and toxic business partners – and possibly many we do not know about yet – in government, big business, entertainment, at home and abroad…these disgusting, hateful, selfish, sexulal predators are nothing more than vampires – they just see others as slabs of meat to feed upon.

IMHO, DJT is the most vile, despicable, disgusting, micro-brained, knuckle-dragging, puss ape to ever live on this ancient earth. Obviously, he does not have the brain cells to have honestly acquired the position in which he sits at this moment. Therefore, he must have many hidden, powerful, wealthy friends, hiding behind curtains, pulling many long strings, passing huge loads of dirty money under many secret tables to put him in the Oval Office. The question now remains: who is pulling the strings and what is their motive?

Pootin is my first choice.

But there may also be many on the inside on both sides of the “fence” – who could be in on this as well.

I do not trust any of them.

Whatever the case may be, we are in a terrifying situation, to say the least, and we are all in this together.

Question: After all the knowledge that has been released…if you are still able to support this rotten piece of festering putrid drooling rotten orange tripe – how is this even possible, and how can you sleep at night?!  Especially if you are female and/or have children…

BTW: If you still somehow can find some way to support him, I do not hate you as a person, the exact opposite is the case, if you are still in my circle of friends and family – I do still love and care for you and I truly and honestly feel sorry for you because you have lost something, something special, a spark of empathy…IMHO, you have lost your bullshit detector and are now part of a dangerous cult. Please get out before it is too late.

What follows was written by Jeff Fleiss.

All his Sexual Assault Victims

26 women have accused Donald Trump of sexual misconduct spanning 40 years – with two jury verdicts awarding $88.3M to E. Jean Carroll for rape and defamation … and wife Ivana testifying under oath that he once raped her– and the admitted “P*ssy Grabber” and dressing room beauty pageant stalker …still shamelessly denies them all. Because lying and refusing to accept responsibility and accountability are always his answer to every misdeed.  Here are the ugly details.

Donald Trump Sexual Misconduct Allegations – Executive Summary

Total Public Accusers: 26 named women (plus anonymous pageant contestants)
Timeline of Allegations: Late 1970s – 2016
Historic Verdicts:
• E. Jean Carroll I (2023): Jury awarded $5 million (sexual abuse & defamation)

Corroborating Witnesses: Jessica Leeds and Natasha Stoynoff testified in Carroll’s case.
Trump’s Response: He has denied all allegations and called them politically motivated.

Accusers & Allegations (Chronological):

14. Jessica Drake (2006) – Grabbed, kissed, and later offered money for sex at a golf event.
15. Summer Zervos (2007) – Kissed aggressively, groped her breast, and pressed genitals against her at a hotel meeting. (2017 defamation suit dropped 2021)
16. Cassandra Searles (2013) – Pageant contestant claims repeated buttocks grabbing and comments about her body.
17. Alva Johnson (2016) – Trump campaign worker alleges forced kissing at a campaign event. (2019 lawsuit voluntarily dismissed)
18. E. Jean Carroll (Mid-1990s) – Alleged rape in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room. (Two jury verdicts: $5M 2023; $83.3M 2024, appeal pending)

The remaining eight victims are based on public reporting where full names were not always provided but were still included in the official media tallies (Guardian, PBS, Yahoo News, etc.).

19. Unnamed Miss Teen USA Contestant (1997)
• Incident: Alleged that Trump entered the Miss Teen USA dressing room while minors were undressed.
• Quote (source paraphrase): “He just came strolling right in. It was shocking.”
• Legal Outcome: No lawsuit; Trump acknowledged entering pageant dressing areas but said it was “to say hello.”

20. Unnamed Miss Teen USA Contestant (1998)
• Incident: Similar allegation of Trump walking unannounced into a Miss Teen USA dressing area.
• Legal Outcome: No lawsuit filed; incident grouped in media tallies.

21. Additional Unnamed Miss USA Contestant (2001)
• Incident: Alleged Trump ogled contestants in partial clothing backstage and made inappropriate comments.
• Legal Outcome: No lawsuit filed.

22. Anonymous Model (1990s)
• Incident: Claimed Trump groped her buttocks at a Manhattan party in the 1990s.
• Legal Outcome: No public court filing; spoke anonymously to a journalist.

• Legal Outcome: Name not released publicly; no lawsuit filed.

26. Anonymous Pageant Contestant (Date Unspecified)
• Incident: Alleged Trump “inspected contestants up close” and made sexualized comments during judging preparation.
• Legal Outcome: No lawsuit filed; grouped under broader pageant behavior allegations.

Key Takeaways:
• Allegations span four decades and include airline passengers, business associates, beauty pageant contestants, journalists, campaign staff, and a minor (Katie Johnson).
• Only Carroll’s and Harth’s claims produced legal judgments or settlements. Other lawsuits (e.g., Zervos, Johnson, Alva Johnson) were dropped or dismissed.
• Trump’s public position has consistently been that all claims are false.

Closing Thoughts:
The list of allegations and historic verdicts speaks for itself. Whether one supports or opposes Donald Trump, these facts deserve to be revealed to and taken seriously by the American People so that justice can be obtained for these Trump victims.

Your 3rd eye is watching you

Some of us have the rare ability to look ourselves in the mirror and reflect on our choices, make changes, look at the past as a learning experience and never do it again, and then go on with life.


Some do not have that ability and need help from those who do.


All of us need to forcefully pry open our third eye to see the violence inherent in the system, step outside of it, and see the religiopolitical matrix for what it really is: a manufactured control machine designed to keep us down by any and all means, so the dangerous, mean, rich and powerful – and those dumb as a bag of steaming fresh scat – remain in control behind the curtains pulling the strings and collecting the wealth while the rest of us scratch, scrape, and slurp to get by in this manufactured automaton we call a society.

IMHO: The possible reason the highly superior extraterrestrials from distant star system(s) have not revealed themselves to us is simple:
We have not passed the most important test of our biological evolution.
We have yet to grow beyond our infantile, tantrum-tossing childhood.
To grow and evolve into an adult, aware, and awake species, we must abandon and delete from our time twisted genetic programming, all the fear-driven, self destructive, xenophobic, hateful, self centered, greed and power focused ways of thinking and living such as but not limited to – separatist, divisive religions, toxic politics, bloody war, insane slavery, juvenile prejudice, caste systems, medical and prison industrial complexes, the burning of finite fossil fuels for energy and their associated land, water, and air pollution, resource wars, habitat destruction and so much more of the fear and greed focused genes still stuck in our DNA that feeds these ancient toxic behaviors. They worked for us in the dark past of our early ancestors, but evidence suggests they do not have a place in our genetic code any longer.
Now is the time we must choose not to fear and fight, but to respect and coexist with each other.
This will not happen anytime soon, and possibly never. Current events suggest we may forever remain infants in our development as a species.
We may be just another failed evolutionary experiment…or a virus that just has to run its course before the planet can heal and make room for the next attempt at something unique.
No matter what the case may be, I know that what we are doing to ourselves, to each other, and to the planet that supports us – cannot end well unless we all work together to repair the heinous damage to the system, delete the current systemic infection, and strive to learn from the mistakes of our childhood, and never ever repeat them again.
Consciously choose to do good things.

Random Thought

If you discovered that someone you love, revere, worship, follow, respect, and/or care deeply about… was a disgusting, twisted, hateful, pedophile, and/or was protecting a pedophile/human trafficker – would you keep loving, respecting, and supporting them?
HELL NO!!!!!
You would put them in the tightest security prison you could find and let the inmates take them apart – twistedly toxic piece by disgustingly disturbingly rotten piece. They would deserve everything they received – and then some.
I have a bad feeling that many people in very high and influential places, in this place we once called a country, in political, religious, entertainment and so many other institutions – are on the list.
When it is finally revealed, it will shatter this country even more.
But it must be revealed.
The evidence must be made public.
It is the right thing to do.
No matter what side of the imaginary fence you are on, no matter which wing of the once great balding bird that you think you are – the truth should matter above all other concerns. If it doesn’t, then you are part of the problem.
If you have children or grandchildren, what will they think of you if you support such disgustingly despicable and absolutely evil people? What kind of people will they become by watching you make your choices?
Don’t support disgusting, hateful, greedy, nasty, destructive people who choose to use others for their own gain and the loathsome fulfillment of their toxically twisted desires.
Do only good things.
Make good choices.

The star we call Sol sent out its energy across the deep void of space…the oceans and land warmed…waters evaporated…clouds grew tall and mighty…wind blew, rains fell, and fell, and rivers jumped out of their banks…their mindless liquid fury eating up the ephemeral landscape while ending all the innocents in its path…the humans cried out – “Why?!?”

The heat and humidity continue to build and build…and the exhaustion and heat stroke drop more and more of us…the sick, the old, and the weak…the humans cried out – “Why?!?”

The land drys out, clouds move over, and, like socks on carpet in winter – friction charges them up like big fluffy sky capacitors and their charge is soon released in great jagged bolts of superheated plasma – igniting the dry lands below…

…and monsterous unstoppable wildfires race across the landscape indescrimanantly devouring everything and everyone in their path…while simultaneously sending choking toxic smoke far and wide beyond their perimeter…the humans cried out – “Why?!?”

The snows, glaciers, sea ice, permafrost, and ice caps melt, while those bedded and beached upon the shore watch as the waters rise, and rise, and rise some more – they build their stuff – buildings, roads, bridges, and walls – higher while they watch in disbelief as their homes are taken back by the mighty and timeless great blue ocean…the humans cried out – “Why?!?”

…and yet, the complacent, self absorbed, multi-colored, mostly hairless, big brained, bipedal apes that call themselves the humans continue to ignore…the reality.

Still they burn…like an addict sucking down cancer sticks as fast as possible while their lungs rot out of their chest…faster they drill baby drill and burn baby burn, more and more oil…more and more coal…more and more gas…more and more and more of this ancient, trapped sunlight and carbon-rich energy…these fossil fuels: the true and tested evidence-supported peer-reviewed root cause of all the “natural” disasters we are all now facing.

And yet, as they watch the sky and pray and cry for the lost – still they choose to blame and deny. And the humans cried out – “Why?!?”

Do they deny because an imaginary sky god or grinning political figurehead made its way into their brain and told them piles of lies about how things work?

I do not know, but I have a suspicion.

But my question remains…why?

Why can’t they think for themselves?

Why do they need a leader, a father figure, a tribe, a chief to tell them his why?

Why can’t they understand and support what their own eyes see?

Why do they continue to deny the facts and findings, the science, the reality?

They laugh and scoff and call it a hoax as they blame the rich, the scientist, the empathetic, the poor, the immigrant, the elderly, those who live differently than they do, and they always loudly blame the “other” – it is obvious to me that they must not care at all about their Mother…or father…or children…or all the “others” on “their” side…and the “other” side of all the imaginary lines they have drawn on pages, in the sands, and in their heads…lines that were intentionally designed to seperate and to create the fear and hate that feeds their bloody war machines and bloated bank accounts…that all are automated by and in support of all the ancient fossil fueled lies.

They often wrongly say the “other” “tribes,” the leftists, the hippies, the pot smokers, the mexicans, the women, the gays, yhe lesbians, and the science types made all these things happen with bribes, tricks, and planes, schools, books, and sprays, and “seeds,” and loads and loads of lies…all to build support to fund their own needs.

This is not reality.

The reality is this: the liers and deniers are in fact on both “sides.”

We are all to blame for our own demise.

They often pray and say their god(s) will keep them safe from the storms, the heat, the sickness and pain…and that it is also their gods who are punishing those who have died for some terrible “sin”…what a childish and heartless reply designed by some nasty old guys with dollar signs in their greedy uncrying black eyes.

Bad sports they are in this game of games while they point crooked fingers and yell hateful names…at all the “others” but never, in the mirror, never ever admitting they were wrong in the game, but always claiming they were wronged by the game…and yet, somehow, they are unable to own up to their own errors in judgement, unable to give aid to those who were maimed.

So many wonderful and beautiful people have tragically died, their lives, homes, and towns washed away, burned, bombed, blown down,

…yet still those that remain, still they choose to deny.

Why?!?!?

Still they cheat, swindle, disrespect, and lie through their perfect little grinning blood dripping teeth, while they get fatter and fatter like bloated parasites sucking the life out of you and me with their toxicly malignant pride.

Those that choose to rebel, to disagree and fight back…they are soon dissappeared. Murdered in cold blood by heartless, soulless, uncaring, brainless, tiny boned, shrunken, little old white men (descended from immigrants), and their throngs of ultra dangerous ultra proud boylike yes men and women – the ultimate toady brown nosers and arse kissers, in suits and masks, hoods, and pointy hats, who will lie rapid fire to your face while shiny gold crosses hang around their necks – nothing at all matters to them except to feel powerful and to win, win, win.

Yes, that is it I believe, they must win. If they lose out in their lust for “greatness” and power, they actually believe – in their tiny, dessicated, shrunken husk of a mind – that they have failed. So, no matter the cost to themselves, their family, city, country, environment, or the entire earth – no matter the cost to our species, they must win. They are the ultimate sore losers, the ultimate bitter, hateful, venomous, malignant, bullies.

When will they ever take responsibility?

What will it take?

Or are they so full of ego, greed, hubris, fear, meanness and hate that they will choose to go down with their ship while pointing their finger at those they have labeled as the enemy…when the real enemy is inside.

Hurricane Helene and now just a few months later – this terrible flood in Texas.

This is yet another horrible and avoidable tragedy.
Please do all in your power to help those in need.


Shifting gears a bit –
Here’s the thing: when I was in college, I learned from my professors, and from my own research in the campus library and online, all about anthropogenic climate change/global warming or whatever you choose to call it. I learned why it is happening, I looked at all the evidence, and all these data, evidence, and facts, they needed no support – they stood alone. It was so obviously real that it made it past my logic and reason filters – and guess what, I understood and accepted it all as peer-reviewed reality.

Here’s the other thing: everything all those scientists (NASA, NOAA, NWS, etc, and all the independent scientists all over the planet studying the issue said would happen – is now coming to pass- heck it has been happening for decades.

I have watched as the climate has noticeably warmed – we didn’t need fans in our home until the mid 1990’s, or air conditioning until 2010 – and now, when the HVAC fails (due to the storms, power outages, etc.), all the floor and ceiling fans and our bodies own built-in cooling systems (sweat glands) can barely keep us from dangerously overheating.

The sea level has visibly risen on the beaches I have been visiting over the last 50+ years of my life.

The once frequent snows of “winter” have turned into cool and sometimes even warm rains…or super-concentrated cold spells – aka Polar Vortexes…vortices? – that have been colder than any cold I can remember.

I have watched springs and creeks dry up and trees die due to the unusually long periods of heat-induced drought.

Almost every year, I have witnessed more frequent and intense wildfires, as well as the unbelievable air pollution the fires bring.

Then there are the hurricanes – (Andrew, Katrina, Harvey, Helene!!!) – more and more powerful every season, more and more rain, wind, destruction.

We then have the wildlife species that never lived in my region, migrating into the wilds near my home – some examples include but are not limited to: the Coyote (the earliest to arrive), the Nine-banded armadillo, Fire ants, Bedbugs, mosquitoes, ticks, and, needless to say, many different nasty diseases – two of these are tick-vectored diseases that I have contracted and still suffer symptoms from – Rocky Mountain Spotted fever and Ehrlichia.

Anthropogenic climate change is an evidence-supported, peer-reviewed fact.

If you choose to not believe me or the thousands of climate scientists and researchers, then just watch and/or read the horrific headlines from the climate change-induced/exacerbated storms, floods, heatwaves, droughts, polar vertices, wildfires, toxic air and water pollution, sea level rise, etc, etc.

Or just walk yourself outside and wait a while.

This climate change thing is not a political plot or ploy to make the Democrats, “leftists” and “greenies” rich, that is ridiculous and you know it. Nor is this some sort of scam cooked up by “the Chinese” – this shit is real so please just keep your political (and religious) BS out of the important business of discovering the impacts of our species on the the evidence-supported peer-reviewed findings and facts of the natural world and its systems that support us all.

But even if still choose to ignore the evidence, the science, and the new reality of the dangerous situation we have made for ourselves by burning copious amounts of fossil fuels over the last few hundred years – say what you will and believe what and who you choose…but your belief in something or someone does not make your choice a fact – unless it has the evidence to back it up.

Like Evolution by Natural Selection, Climate Change has mountains of supportive peer-reviewed evidence. If you choose to not believe all these mountains of evidence, from all over the planet and even satellites orbiting in space…then all I can say to you is buckle up buttercup, and “enjoy” the ride because we are all riding on this crazy train of life together. There is nowhere to run, nowhere to hide and the cold beauty that some call mother nature is as mad as hell at the dumbass “thinking” ape clan for fukin up the planet – and I fear this is only the beginning and there is going to be some serious hell to pay.

Please remember – nature does not give one single hot puckered rodent arse about any of us, so you better learn how to take care of yourself. Be ready. Stay vigilant. Be prepared. And above all, do good things to help others in need around you, because we are all riders on the same 4.5 billion-year-old planetary boat afloat in the vast ocean of space and time.


One Love.

Twist your Demons

On By StevoIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

Yep, by being observant and thinking for myself…for whatever the reasons it seems I irritate a lot of other people’s inner “demons.” Hmmm, let’s see, how about this:


Climate change is a real, observed phenomenon and is partly natural and also greatly exacerbated by the chemical litter we humans are dumping into our atmosphere at a dangerous rate the planet, our health, and our civilization cannot keep up with.


The ice caps and glaciers are melting and sea levels are rising due primarily to anthropogenic climate change.


We humans are all primates, part of the great ape family, and we share an ancient common ancestor with all of them….and all living things on this planet. Evolution by natural selection happened and is happening – the evidence is in our DNA.


The earth is round – the evidence is all around us.


All the stars are other suns with other planets, some like Earth, some probably with life, orbiting around them.


Bigfoot and other “cryptids,” are in the same realm as Santa Claus, the tooth fairy, dragons, mermaids, aliens/UFOs, and all the thousands of gods, devils, demons, and other imaginary beings invented by humans over our short time on this water-soaked rock of a planet to help us explain things before science came along. If however – testable, repeatable, peer-reviewed evidence is found to support anything in the stories, myths, and legends – I will happily accept them as reality, adapt, and go on with my life.


The earth is billions of years old. The evidence is in the rocks.


The cosmos started with a big “bang.” The evidence is in the stars.


Coexist with all people and other life (except ticks, mosquitoes, leeches, and other parasites – it is ok to kill them if they are attempting to eat you.)


Let people choose their own way of life.
Let people love the way they want to love.
Let people read the books they want to read.
Let people listen to whatever kind of music they choose.
Let people worship a god, gods, or the lack thereof, or choose to not worship at all. It is their life, it is their choice – not yours.


Use locally-sourced renewable energy to power your lives.


Drive electric vehicles made in this country or wherever you happen to be and power them with electron fuel sourced in your land.


Stop burning long dead finite toxic things for energy – keep fossil fuels in the ground.


When you make a decision, consider its impacts on the children of tomorrow.


Eat more plants.
Eat local.
Support small business.
Listen to the experts.


Own and use your guns and other toys, but don’t be a dumbass with them.


Do not be a bully. Do not harm or insult others with differences to make you feel powerful and in control.


Treat others with the respect they deserve.


Stop the hate.


Do not lie, cheat, steal.


Be a good human.


If you have more than you need, give some of it to those in need.


Help others.


Turn your swords into plowshares.


Kill your yard and plant a garden, go with edible landscaping.


Go fishing, hunting, hiking, camping – but always follow the rules and remember to leave no trace.


Protect the environment first, it supports us all and gives us everything we need to survive.


Teach the peer-reviewed facts of whatever it is you teach…but teach!


The only way religious books should ever be allowed to be taught in public schools, is if the school is offering a religions of the world course where each religion’s and its special book is respectfully presented and treated in a unbiased method without placing special emphasis on any one special book or religion. It is only fair.


Fully and forever separate church and state.


Politics needs a reset….and many deletions and updates.
Religion needs a reset…and many deletions and updates.
Education needs a reset…and many deletions and updates.


Before people are allowed to hold offices, seats, and pulpits of power and influence, or receive driver or pilot licenses, or purchase firearms, they should first pass cognitive functioning, lie detector, and mental health exams supplied by unbiased scientific testing sources. Furthermore, if they have been convicted of crimes against others, society, humanity, or the country, they should not be allowed to hold important decision making offices because it has already been established by the experts that they have issues with making informed intelligent decisions.


Patriotism is fine, love your country, but over the top toxic, cultish, lunatic fringe, blind nationalism is a disease. Example: Nazi Germany and so many others.


Being spiritual and religious is fine if it works for you, but over the top toxic, cultish, lunatic fringe, blind worship of the religiopolitical cult of your choosing is a disease. Example: too many to mention.


Your god is not the only god and to say it, them, they, is more important, better, supreme, more sacred…whatever… than all the other thousands of gods from all the myths and stories made up by our species with its ancient primal fears, is the ultimate in hubris and is a prescription to disaster. Example: all the blood spilled over all the centuries in the name of gods.


Think critically. Use your mind – do not let others think for you, make decisions for you, and use your mind for their own agendas. Put evidence, logic, and reason over myth, magic, and greedy dastardly controlling meanness.


I’ll bet I made a bunch of “demons” twist and jump didn’t I.


You are most welcome.
Do only good things.
Think.
One Love.
