President Biden is putting on his big boy pants and vowing to pull all U.S. troops out of Afghanistan by the anniversary of 9/11. The skinny is we are coming up on the twenty year anniversary of a war of which we know not who we are fighting. The answer is the Taliban but has been a mostly covert affair dealing with the country's desirable natural resources. We all can guess what one of these is, and it is no deterrent to the temptation of smuggling them back to the states in military planes. We need to get out of Afghanistan, and President Biden is making the right decision. It has been a formidable distraction and an unnecessary side road to American foreign policy. Let's pray the years of war mongering, defense spending, and empire building through the military are coming to an end. With the second coming of Jesus Christ, there will be little need for technology. All of the trinkets and gadgets, the "technology" peddled by the defense industry will do no good when the grid is destroyed. Eventually it all will come back to hand to hand combat, survival, and conservation. The more clearly we see we should be going backwards in time, the more of a chance we have to save the human race. Goggles, antenna arrays, and iPhones will not find you a meal outside. I never realized until accidentally I watched a punk music related movie last night how much I sympathize with that point of view. Today we are so full of shit and have no idea what is important, but I could spend countless hours trying to redefine the essence of humanity, Christianity, humility, and love. No one cares. Only do they care about what they can get, a nice home, two cars, and a brood of children to call their own. Once they get that reality presents itself. I do pine for the good old days. It truly has become a Stepford America. What would happen if you grabbed an ass today? They are trying to bring down the governor of New York, because he is a lonely man. Back in the day there were ramifications of the caveman methodology. You had to hit her on the head and drag her back to the cave. Never did I learn to do this in my youth, and interestingly in the late 1980's the establishment saw fit to pass a "date rape" law. If you made the wrong move on a date, a subpoena could show up on your door inviting you to court. That permanently sequestered any aggressive romantic or sexual proclivities I was harboring. Instead I used the "nice guy" technique. It worked for the most part later in life, but you were at the mercy of your woman's libido. You didn't get to do it when you wanted. Instead you were content to get it when she saw fit. This became stereotypical. Only late at night on the way to sleep was sex appropriate. This was fine with me, but in retrospect it was a far departure from my youthful prowess. When I was young, the appeal of sexuality was unconventional daring. Anyone can get undressed and crawl in the bed. How romantic is that? If you have biological chemistry it is fine. If you don't, and you haven't established the bond of physical intimacy, then you need things to augment your game. Traditional trappings of romance are staid and impotent. This is why some women truly do desire "bad boys," men who say to hell with manors and take what they want. There is room for both. America for certain has lost track of physical romance and the resultant sexual expression. All one has to do is flip to a Showtime channel late at night and try to watch a B grade, soft core, heavily edited porno flick. It is disgusting for several reasons. First evidently no longer does it matter if a body is physically and visually appealing. The women have implants, no breasts, and are acting rather than indulging in the pure physical act. Their acting wreaks! May I make a suggestion? Stop talking. Stop moaning. Stop making baby noises. No one does this, and it is idiotic. Second, the idea of kissing is not one of licking like a dog. Please stop licking your partners mouth. Even Markie Mark did this the other night in one of his movies. It is not sexy. It is a real disappointment to watch the tepid foreplay but then have to watch a couple dry hump with no genitalia in view. These are real pornographic actors, and it appears they are doing the real thing, but because it is cable TV no bare penis or vagina. It is so boring to watch this, and I feel my mind begin to deteriorate immediately if I even try to engage at the most basic level. There is a whole frontier available in America. Television, video, and music are at their lowest levels in my lifetime. Pick up your notebook and begin to write down your thoughts, your dreams, and your fantasies. Evidently no one else is.
