COVID-19 Movies Politics Recommendations Society Watchlist for the COVID-19 era

An extremely timely movie for this COVID-19 era of ours in America.

This really sets the stage for what we are going through right now. Hunter was exactly right about Nixon and all its administration portended for this miserable country. We are now reaping what we sowed back then. This is the price we pay for failing to elect George McGovern. This is the price we pay for not electing Henry A. Wallace. This is the price we pay for not electing Bernie Sanders. This is the price we pay for not electing George Mason. This is the price we will continue to pay until we learn our goddamn lesson. So fucking educate yourself, people. Smarten the fuck up. It’s your responsibility as a citizen of this country. If you decide it isn’t then maybe you should shoot yourself in the head or just leave some other, more graceful way. But you are standing in the way of progress. STFU and GTFO.

Atlas should have done squats instead, Ayn Rand!

In fact, he is about to start anytime now! 🙂 So you had better prepare yo’ self.

Squatting is very important. It is a functional exercise that builds strength and integrity throughout the body. Without the ability to squat, where would we be? On the floor, that’s where!!!

So practice your squats daily and you will reap the benefits immediately. My squatting practice has made a huge difference in the quality of my daily life. In fact, this has led me to buy . . . The Squatty Potty! Yes, indeed! And it is terrific. And it is a wonderful metaphor for how horribly misguided our stupid Victorian ways were, having grotesquely mutated the image of what life should be like for human beings, living on our heavenly planet Earth.

So, enjoy your daily squatting practice and get yourself a Squatty Potty. That is a great habit to keep your mind off of this COVID-19 party we’ve been surprised (not) by.

Live long and prosper,

Ali

The Coronavirus Pandemic Is Coming for New Orleans – The Atlantic

https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2020/03/coronavirus-pandemic-coming-new-orleans/608821/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=share

As my friend just noted, this doesn’t look good for Mississippi. I’m guessing Mississippi is going to make Louisiana look like merely a bad day. And I hope it wakes people up to the significance of this horrific income inequality and disparity in the quality of life in this stupid, ethically and philosophically bankrupt country. Vote for Bernie Sanders you f****** idiots! Medicare for all! And better late than never, because it’s going to happen eventually no matter how hard you try to fight it, you stupid, greedy f****.

Ex-UN chief Ban Ki-moon says US healthcare system is ‘morally wrong’

Ex-UN chief Ban Ki-moon says US healthcare system is ‘morally wrong’

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/sep/25/ex-un-chief-ban-kioon-says-us-healthcare-system-is-morally-wrong?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_WordPress

Kudos to Ban Ki-moon for having the courage to step forward and say something like this.

One thing I will question is why the rest of the Western world was seemingly so absent from public condemnations of events and policies in the USA that preceded or directly resulted in this situation. I do champion diplomacy and have the deepest respect for those who engage in it. However it is also necessary and healthy to be brave and principled enough to bite the hand that feeds you when the other hand is beating you or someone else. At some point you become complicit via inaction.
