Adult Stem Cell Regeneration Ad put on AFAR

This is an advertisement for Adult Stem Cell Regeneration, LLC. I'm putting it here because I think this community should know I have watched my 76 year old body rebuild itself from the inside out over the last 3 years. Empirical evidence: my arms have defined muscles, thick skin, and new dark hair growing. I have a courier job driving packages from one point to another in northern NJ. The rest of the ad, and the other regenerated organs, are found at http://adultstemcellregeneration.com/. I know it's impossible. I know it can't happen, I know it is the most improbable thing in the world; and I know it has happened to me and at least one other person over 76. I want everyone to have the benefit of actually regenerating their adult stem cells. Think, for a moment, if this is true, how things will change. It's mostly what the anti-aging community has been working to accomplish. It is certainly increased healthspan, and probably lifespan.

Trump and Republicans against all

Trump has won the war on children and babies. He has separated them from their parents on many occasions, because he cannot think of a more vicious thing to do to people. And "We the people of the United States" say "It's a pity" and "It's not who we are". They are right about the pity part and wrong about who we are. It took 80 years (well, 4 score and 7 years) after the Declaration said all men are crated equal until we warred among the slavers and non-slavers to free the slaves. It took another 60 years for WOMEN to get the vote. It was starting to look like we were making progress toward all men being equal. But Reagan and the Republicans beat down the "equal rights amendment" and kept women subservient to men and money. Today we live in nation where: "You are free to obey. Quit obeying and they take away that freedom". A nation where only the elected aristocracy votes on laws, votes for the Executive officers, and no one votes for Judges. We are better educated and more numerous slaves than any in history. Well, we can change it. But that means not obeying. Few of us have the guts for that. We'd rather see the war on children than oppose such a war. Philip Wylie thought he lived in a generation of vipers. Those were timid vipers, these are far superior vipers, American Oligarch funded, ignorance led, and winning the war against the children. I would say "God Help us" but the Evangelical Christians have already joined the war on the side of the vipers.

Ms. Vanderbuilt died...

Character and substance are hard to define, easier to appreciate, and rarely to be perfected. Many of the "rich and famous" have striven to present themselves as the exception to the ordinary, to actually be more wonderful, beautiful, and worthy of our attention. They reach many of their goals, and then, they to, unavoidably, and unjustly, die. Many of them were, and are, "bigger" humans than the average ranger. But the average ranger is, in my not so humble opinion, really superior to them. Without coercion the average person believes, "thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness, thou shalt not covet thy neighbors wife". The "rich and famous" got the memo, they just didn't believe it applied to them. And it probably didn't. But only because we the people were solid, good, hard-working, child-raising, family-supporting, good people. The rich and famous, torn by mankind's "un-perfectibility", rebelled against the norms, the caring, the hopes of mankind, and scandalized us by doing the attention grabbing foolish things they did for personal attention. I envied their ability to use their wealth to effectively scoff at our "normalcy" and try and force us to attend to their indifference to our normal way of life of working hard, marrying, raising a family, and trying to make a better world. They failed because I would rather be "normal" than a show off trying to tell others I am abnormal, and you should strive to be abnormal too.

Trump in England and NYT Editorial

Of course the liar, cheater, and thief in chief is mocked all over the world. Sanity requires the mockery. If we cannot laugh at this inept, corrupt, Republican in chief who can we laugh at? But of course, the Laughable President is really an American tragedy. Some may think he is a Machiavellian villain but he is simply an inept New York petty gangster who has no morals, no dignity, a 600 word vocabulary and all the bluff and audacity of a the "poor fool". Until America becomes an Actual Democracy, where the people directly vote for the laws under which they live, directly vote for the Executive Officers, and directly vote for the Judges, we will continue to be pawns to what Rousseau called our elected Aristocracy.

The Republican Philosophy: lie, cheat, and steal money and power

The Republican philosophy of "lie, cheat, and steal" to get ahead, to get money and power from the people and then use that power, gotten from the people, against them so they cannot and will not share in the use of that power. The examples of Hoover, Nixon, Ford, Reagan, Bush Sr., Bush Jr. and Trump display the Republican Presidents applying lying, cheating, and sealing that resulted in The Depression, in cover up and resignation for unlawful "lying, cheating, and sealing"; in pardoning a target of impeachment even though the Constitution excepts pardon in cases of impeachment; The "Iran Contra Affair" where laws prohibiting dealing with Iran and the Contras were consciously violated; Where members of the government who violated the laws in Reagan's administration were pardoned; where war was started because of non-existent weapons of mass destruction; and now, the liar,cheater, thief supreme, Trump, has violated his oath of office, as all these previous Republican liars, cheats, and thieves of money and power had done: Conspired to steal an election with the help of Russia and successfully did steal that election and then covered up that fact by obstructing the investigation assigned by his Department of Justice to determine how he conspired with Russia to get elected and how he hoped to also make billions of dollars in league with Putin. The Republicans have lied, cheated, and stolen the money and power from the American people and will continue until they are stopped.

Politics and "Our better Angels"

This is a clash of "our better angels" and our belief in "survive, even prosper, anyway you can". Both are group think or gang think. I phrase it as "lie, cheat, steal" against "truthful, honest, communal": it takes a thief or it takes a village. The Republicans have finally exposed their philosophy that capitalism and democracy favor the lying, cheating, stealing philosophy, what a poet called "red of tooth and claw", the idea that justice is "an eye for an eye" as opposed to "love thy neighbor" and "all men are equal". There is a projection of these opposing philosophies: "There's a sucker born every minute" and " A house divided cannot survive". Since Henry Cabot Lodge subverted America's joining Woodrow Wilson's League of Nations after World War I, which may have logically and politically undermined Democracy throughout the world, even America; down through Nixon, Reagan, the Bushes, and, now, Trump. The move toward Republicanism, toward "take care of yourself and we'll be better off" opposed to "work together and we'll be better off": turn off the Unions by subverting them, turn them into a business themselves, address human greed and use it to bring the opposition into the Republican camp. Be cruel when necessary, be crooked, when necessary, undercut the Constitution, when necessary. Damn our better angels, they cost too much and are too whiny and weak to run a country. Jefferson has lost the argument, power and greed have overcome community and Justice for all.
