Really Going with the Flow

“Csikszentmihalyi defines flow as a human state of optimal functioning, a dynamic balance of challenge and skill,” wrote Sky Nelson-Isaacs. “In the proper activities and under the proper conditions, we become one with our lives, enacting ‘a complete focusing of attention on the task at hand — thus leaving no room in the mind for irrelevant information.’ When we are in a state like this, thinking and feeling become integrated, with neither controlling the other.”

Anyone who votes for a Republican is either an idiot, or in on the con job.

Goebbels and the GOP

The relentless fascist propaganda peddled by Fox News builds up societal fury like a pressure cooker. The lid has to blow off sometime.

Watch as the World Laughs Out Loud at Trump

I find it amusing that the other world leaders are actually laughing out loud at the so-called president of the United States. That should help remind Donald Trump that he’s actually filth.

Of course, Trump has always secretly known he's nothing, emptiness, really just filth. That's the impetus for his ludicrous grandiosity and constant lies. It's so transparently a desperate attempt at psychological compensation.

Since I first became aware of Donald Trump decades ago, I recognized him as merely a pitifully damaged human being, nothing more. The fact that so much of his damage is self-inflicted merely makes his situation — and now, by extension, ours — that much more tragic and stupid.

Trump has never interested me, and he still doesn’t.

What interests me very much is finding out exactly how a purportedly democratic political system erodes to the point of putting something like Trump in charge.

That's About the Size of It...

If America dies, Fox News will have killed it.
