"I am influenced by every second of my waking hour."

That was a Lenny quote. Above he was seated with Hugh Hefner. What did they teach us? It's all about the endgame. They failed. Hefner ended up whiny, surrounded by dog urine and without ever finding a soulmate. Bruce died overweight in a bathroom with a needle sticking out of his arm.

They were icons for various free speech and cultural reasoning. Hefner, like Steve Allen, tried his best to help out the kid with cops all up in his schtick, referred to as an improvisational stream of consciousness bits. They were bits. I added extra imagery.

They done good but forgot how to finish the game. Hefner was a slut and pornographer. Lenny started a non-profit for leprosy and kept what he could legally. He seemed to be anti-socialism but I'm not sure. He wasn't an easy schtick to grok, but some of the stuff was brilliant. Some bands have hit after hit. Lenny was more like hit or miss. But no one had truly gone to the pow bam, right atcha stratagem. But I digress. They played the cards dealt within a medium structure that had been exponentially built or amassed since the early 1800's up until its death last year.

Hefner was lucky?

I'm not a big fan of dog piss. I'd rather experience true love than have hot chicks around me. Here's a novel idea. I'm actually attracted to women close to my age. I look at younger women as little children. Well, uhm, Uh oh. It was just a joke.

It's cheating to go with much younger people. Hey, sometimes it happens. I'm not talking about random deviations nor implying deviance. If a woman is 40 and the dude 55 or vice-versa, I could see it working. 20 and 35 is too big a gap. What Hugh Hefner was up to was simply disgusting and his endgame showed that.

Bruce gets an incarnation mulligan. He seemed to be doing swell after singing the all alone tune on t.v.. He got worn down by arrest after arrest. He wasn't a lowly drug addict. He had prescription drugs. I guess he liked methedrine? Pot made him feel paranoid or too self-conscious. He needed speed like a Nurse Jackie to keep going. Perhaps in his next incarnation he realised pot was better and that there was something invented 1.8 million years ago called the power nap.

I finally found out about Philip K. Dickhead. Just kidding. Guys. I like the dude. Just like the two above, he delivered great schtick in real time. Maybe Playboy was sleazy and Satanic, but they also had nice articles and interviews. Dick went nuts by the end, but before that he was a great science fiction writer. His downfall like Lenny's was cointelpro wouldn't leave him alone. Dick would truly come up with some weird writing at the end of his career. He died young. I think he fvcked up also like Lenny in not sleeping enough. Both felt that sleep was a waste of time. It was chop chop, get a busy for them.

The great part of the medium dying is that people can now come up with their own original content. I thought I'd never blog again. Dick might have cut a weird deal with Feds. He said the paranoia stopped after Nixon was ousted and cointelpro was exposed.

Which brings me to Barrett Brown. Talk about a glitch in the matrix process. He has been sounding like a Hillary bot. It makes no sense. Hence, I don't trust his pursuance project. Barrett loves himself some Intercept and Jay Leiderman. The only really interesting questions left are will Assange get pardoned and will Bernie keep his health and mind together to take over the presidency in just three years.

I do not like that nothing has been done about the superdelegates. Maybe they got rid of some of them? Those to me are a deal breaker and why I keep mentioning it. Barrett is busy sounding like Media Matters when he's supposed to be non-partisan. He interviewed an "ex-CIA" analyst who was on with Cenk. Or there's something called a sealed plea agreement supplement signed by both parties.

Maybe he's just a naive narcissist with blind spots? That could very well be what is going on and hopefully he'll wake the fvck up. I doubt he will. It sounds like classic denial, an I'm not listening. I'm not going near that. He has somehow become a Jake Tapper. He's just another guy circumscribed within the dead state medium apparatus.

Comictelpro was interesting, imho. I wouldn't be afraid to proffer a grand unifying string cheese of conspiracy stories to be had with Rogan, Alex Jones, uhm, those other guys. Doug Benson? Those guys aren't real comics. It makes no sense. There shouldn't be such a buzz. If anything, my writings should form the apex of the top of the zeitgeist, at least a little bit of it. Fair is fair.

The social reality as computer simulation schtick is dogshite. The reason why everything seems to be 0's and 1's is because that's a simple way to define polar opposites which form the whole. P.K. Dick's books were brilliant or they must be based on reviews. I like those movies. I don't feel compelled to read his stuff and especially those last dregs of thought called Exegesis or wtf.

He didn't have hidden power. He was a drug addict. He hung around with the wrong crowd. Dick was one of the best, but then he fell into the deep end. One minute William Cooper made sense. The next he was talking up aliens. They got fvcked with by cointelpro. Maybe they were in on it somehow. How the fvck would I know?

Alex Jones is clearly cointelpro. Lots of stuff is obvious. It's just a little too high quality for some no name youtube channel getting huge hits and garbage comments. Some stuff is good. One must be proactive. But most of everything is not worth the effort.

I don't know what happened to Dick. It's weird that's his name. He was agoraphobic. I met someone with that. They are fine, normal, etc., but only if they are safe at home. That guy was a big time introvert. I give him his due. I'd like to think he went over the deep end rather than talked up some extra bullshite in service of national security. Conspiracy Stories as proven by Snowden documents are not something that emerged with the internet. They were transferred and adapted to this garbage pit of infinite electronic storage capacity.

The medium did die. I witnessed it. All the esoteric chit chat, i.e. the internalisation of just too much damned infotainment has fused itself into spiritual DNA. It should get progressively easier to recognise society as fake in future incarnations. I know. It sucks. There is nowhere to go where anything is real or it's very rare to find stuff and think that would be good for everyone to look at.

Here's the problem and why I may be finally sick and tired of the twitter format. I don't follow many people by design. I like the Irish guy because it seems one can learn a lot by looking at a few select stories.

I wouldn't have known about the Daily Mail scandal if I didn't follow his feed. The irony is I read the Daily Mail or skim it quite often or its U.S. version anyway. In their main paper for Brits there's some kind of full attack on Mr. Corbyn. We need that guy to succeed. The Washington Post did a similar thing to Bernie, something equivalent to a stalker sending 16 unwanted emails to some chick he's just got to let it go and move on.

The shite on Pizzagate was interesting. Most of it was a distraction. The DNC leak stuff was much more damaging than the kookier material. It turned out to be a rigged coronation for Hillary. That can't ride.

Assange ended medium history, period. Jane Fonda is even saying enough is enough and get that shite out of me mug. I love it. I don't miss the important pop culture stuff by skimming Daily Mail.

Less is more. You don't want to have too little less, less or too much more, more.

We are going to die no matter how long it takes
The perfect endgame is hitting old age with spunk
Hefner did some things right and is not a lost cause
I'd have hired a full staff to make the dog pee outside

The endgame is the which which cannot be whicher
Hat tip to Watts or he stole it
It's a simulation only in that hidden power creates scripts
Is this poetry? I doubt it. I'm trying to tie it all together

The U.S. government illegally performs psychological operations
Over half the country is progressive, but they have no candidate
You can't beat the superdelegates
Alex Jones screamed, "1776!"

That should do it. Oh, so this other fricken person I follow linked to an old Harry Enten 538 article on how everyone hates both Hillary and Trump. That website were dirty rats in on the verified conspiracy. But we're the ones smeared as kooks despite verification through heroic whistleblowing. If Assange is pardoned and Bernie wins it all in 2020, then maybe we can talk about possible medium reboots.

We are the new medium. Deal breakers are not mythology.

I vetted them all. They all suck. Some BBC lady is smearing Corbyn as a Joo hater. She got busted for something, but it'd be too much work to explain. So, listen to music. Look into cool shite that was never available to us old geezers. The Philip K. Dick story is interesting.

There are paid fakes all over the internet.

Are drug companies causing health inequalities due to pricing?

Medicines of all sorts have been around throughout human history to help man survive; herbs and spices to cure ailments big or small. Then along came scientists who experimented and trialled out a medley of concoctions to attempt to cure the big bad diseases.

I am sure some of these great scientists' aims were to save a life rather than to make money out of their discoveries! Think of Banting and Best who discovered insulin in 1921-where would those of us with diabetes be without insulin now? Antibiotic discovery, immunisations and so many other medicines have transformed and saved countless lives globally.

Mass manufacturing of drugs, though, did not come along until the 1800`s. Everyone knows aspirin, for example; the company Bayer used clever advertising to sell it to the public! Another drug company Pfizer which began way back in 1849 is now worth 49 billion dollars!

So where did the money making side of drugs originate from? Well, if you or I needed a cure, we`d go out of our way to find anything we believed in or were cajoled into believing would work, right? Picture quack potions sold off a back of a horse and cart with claims of miracle cures, wrapped up in something sinister like arsenic for goodness sake. You`d pay whatever you could afford!

     image: The Welcome Library.

And dare I say, perhaps modern medicinal product advertising goes hand in hand with the earlier methods of deception? The picture above is from early 20th Century England claiming to cure all with one product! It's Scott`s Emulsion-glorified cod liver oil to you and me! Did they knowingly mislead the public? Perhaps, and like today, drug companies would want you to spend on the most expensive brand, yes? So making money out of medicines is nothing new.

The question of whether lifesaving medicines are overpriced has come to a boiling point and especially in the U.S.. There have been many calls to cut the pricing of prescription drugs. Take a look at the cost of Epipen for one, the lifesaving drug for those who could suffer anaphylactic shock. Depending on where you live and what health insurance you have, many people are being forced to cough up additional money from their own income. And who are the most affected by these prices? They are the most vulnerable in society who can least afford it.

What would you do if you knew there was a drug that could save your life, but it was way too expensive to get hold of? This is the sad reality of today. People are now so reliant on doctor prescribed drugs, the figures are staggering.

Approximately 60% of Americans and half of the UK population take prescribed medicines.

     source: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/databriefs/db184.htm

And recent research found that people went without their medicines because they could not afford them, thus impacting further on health. This is a worrying trend.

I looked at UK usage too. However, the National Health Service has exemptions for prescriptions for some of those suffering chronic illness such as diabetics. The public do have to pay a national health insurance but it is nothing in comparison to Americans' fees! The typical cost of just one prescribed drug costs in England approximately $9 U.S. dollars, nothing too demanding compared to across the pond.

There are some inequities in England when expensive drugs are restricted due to cost. It can also be dependent on where you live, a form of post code lottery!

The new hepatitis C cure hit the headlines for the wrong reason due to government intervention.

It's not just hepatitis C. Complaints are growing to make cancer drugs more widely available.

 So drug companies have the right to charge so much? Are they there to aid patients or in it for pure profit? Should they be held responsible for causing health inequalities due to overpricing?

Well, there certainly seem to be a lot of lawsuits and fines levied against them.

Is it too much to expect the immediate implementing of reasonable pricing? Who holds the bargaining power of these huge organisations?

Some of them argue that they are not overcharging but provide competitive prices; try telling that to the person footing the bill!

In-between people such as pharmacies dispensing medicines are trying to get the costs reduced.

Okay, so I did do a lot of background research on this and I wanted to see which drug companies were faring best and worst in terms of accessibility and affordability.

GlaxoSmithKline came out on top of the rankings, showing some promising ways in which to facilitate better access to medicines in countries with high poverty levels by capping prices.

       Sir Andrew Witty, CEO.

 So it`s not all doom and gloom as the press makes it out to be? I am not so sure.

We all like to see solutions to problems evolve quickly into action, don`t we. The debates will linger on until there is complete health equality.

So what is the solution? Well, I know you will all have your viewpoints on this.

Here are some ideas from various medical based places.

   

 

So governments must be key players in reducing drug costs.

THE UNITED NATIONS COMMITTEE ON ACCESS TO HEALTH:

  

       (source)

And from the World health Organisation:

  

Ah, yes indeed, the transparency of drug companies!

  

The Lancet article recommends governments assure money to cover at least the minimum cost of essential drugs.

 Just what will it take to stop the health inequalities? Do we need more competition from up and coming drug companies, who will charge less, is that the answer? Or will governments change course and decide to spend more on health care instead of war?

 Does the totality of humanity matter to any of these players in the pharmaceutical myriad?

The Internet Ended History

"The electronic age is inner trip, period."

I was listening to some Marshall McLuhan having give and take with students. He really nailed it, but his responses confused them. They weren't ready for his great wisdom.

We are in the electronic age. The speed by which the rear view mirror has been analysed and cookie cut means we can only live in the now.

He was freaking out the students with his ideas. He advised them that there's no juice left in the old system. He predicted the internet. This is true and can be verified. He claimed that we were entering personalised journeys. Each of us would turn into an encyclopedia.

He also spoke of the bad guys, that we are back to the age of the hunter. The scary part is that we the people have become the hunted.

He was interested in historic processes. He was a visionary. As Tesla was the real talent compared to Einstein, McLuhan for all his awkward goofiness was a legend for the social sciences.

But there is where the plot took a twist turn. Marshall McLuhan admitted to students that academics was a scam. They also took it on the chin when he said the ball game had ended. I knew what he meant. There is a competitive element to academia that's simply antithetical to the old-school pyramid of knowledge.

We can now see instantaneously how rigged and fake everything is via the internet. How would anyone have ever known but a few that The Washington Post and all the others are state-sponsored, fake news?

The big shift towards perceiving a Huxley, Orwellian state as actual was a result of the double whammy of Snowden and Assange. The medium has reached a point in which the hyperbole, speculation and theorising by great minds on its true nature have become sheer wisdom and impossible to refute.

McLuhan claimed he could bypass it. I certainly feel that I have. But it is not very easy to do so.

We were all indoctrinated for the old ways. We bought into it because we didn't know any better. There's some very revealing stuff in those Snowden documents. That thing verified most of my kookiness leanings. My biggest beef has always been with the Military-Industrial Complex and capitalism. But Soros, Clinton and Obama are not the left. It's as if we don't exist.

The internet has been contaminated with fake news and paid fakes to such an extent that social reality has become obfuscated from masses of people.

Every social media outlet is infested with paid fakes and useful idiots.

McLuhan was basically a regular guy introvert who thought a lot and was very deep. It's unfortunate the students took it so personally.

Life is about enlightenment. McLuhan and Watts had some sort of relationship. I think Marshall was a closet buddhist. There are just some things that are impossible to prove. The Jesus schtick doesn't seem to add up. The God in the Heavens or wtf and we get one life just can't be true. There wouldn't be so much cheating and tragedies.

The only chance left to get out of here alive is reincarnation. Or it's all random science stuff. I go with reincarnation.

I'll wrap this up by copying and pasting some recently mailed in McLuhan tweets and then add on some sweet bonus convolution coverage also regurgitated from Twitter.

For those who want to play along at home:

"Students get processed by Marshall McLuhan - Deconditioning Lecture [1969]"

The hippie chick is going toe to toe with McLuhan around the 18 minute mark.

He says students burned down a Yale building and no newspaper or radio covered it. He's calling out the news. He's interested in processes.

Students are getting mad because McLuhan is saying everything is rigged and fake. They are so young and idealistic that it's somewhat painful audio.

He admits that academia is a scam.

He's saying electronics ended history. The speed of it brings everything up to the present. He says we have resorted back to being hunters.

Academics is leisure. The medium suckers one in through the infotainment part and then folks miss that it is violence against critical thinking and true freedom.

Towards the end, he says people are the hunted. He says based on a study or wtf, there were probably three or four Pinkertons present in the room.

More plagiarism of Lenny Bruce? He had a son of a bitch schtick. There was a Seinfeld episode that seems to have stolen said schtick.

spit out the truth, but also do a little work before said spitting. be violent to fake words.

I'm finally getting into Lenny's book, but I don't remember any of it. It does seem to be exceptionally easy reading. A little too easy.

There is a lot of Lenny Bruce stuff at Youtube. There's even a German dude who made a video explaining there really is a lot of stuff on him.

This is why people must quit the medium. There is better stuff out there if you're going to ruin your eyesight glued to the computer.

I'm not saying one should quit the computer completely, although that's not such a bad idea if someone has the nerve to try it.

I always wondered why movies got so bad. McLuhan nailed it. Electronics ended history. It is the now from here on towards the next vibration.

The internet swooped in too fast. T.V. killed radio. Internet killed film. The vast majority play by old rules despite this epic shift.

McLuhan realised content had become meaningless back when it wasn't so obvious. Erich Fromm realised a lot of similar junk. Why not apply said learned junk to today's social reality?

DFQ2: The Home For Bonus Convolution Coverage You can Count On

Cassandra Fairbanks has been outed as a paid fake. The irony is that she has done it to herself by associating with and promoting verified FBI sewer rat Brandon Darby. This is how fake everything has become in regards to surrealism. Wikileaks clearly broke the code and cracked wide open shite I was prescient on but didn't have enough pay stubs for scoop glory.

That's just nuts. If one is going to be an infiltrator, why be such a numbnut and make it so obvious?

This is tied in with McLuhan's claim that electronics has ended history. Paid fakes are no longer capable of hiding their lack of a soul.

The speed by which information can travel now allows for the immediate outing of paid fakes and useful idiots.

trigger my left n _ _ ?

i'm driving the bus in the moment which is timeless and can never be defeated

Omg, the new Boston Globe spam title is "Always real."

Those clowns wouldn't know real if they were locked in a vault for twelve hours with Marshall McLuhan and heard him out.

The Brandon Darby evidence is reason enough to reach a blog court decision. Guilty. Sad. @subverzo @Ergoat

Anyway, I am definitely winding down my Twitter career. I was a player during the election season, but now I am ready to cut back and wean meself off it. Julian Assange or Confucius said, "Don't be a complete idiot."

It was a good run, but I am no longer feeling the magic of it. Maybe I am too aware of the cyber magicians and the teachings of McLuhan and Alan Watts to still give a fvck.

Don't take me wrong. I am loving this like a McDonald's vegetarian happy meal if those existed. I am Happy Gilmore who got through the anger phase and have found my happy place.

Spirituality is the trump card, no pun intended.

I haven't felt this good and healthy in many years and I mean in both mind and spirit. I have found a way to bypass the medium. I have pointed to such methods in the hope of giving others the confidence to also break away and live full lives as one with nature and the cosmos, not rigged social media.

These ptb's are dirty rotten buggers and idjits who would be 100% exposed schadenfreude if everything weren't so rigged and fake. Trust me. If the royal we were truly playing by the old school rules of academia, it would be game, set and match for paid fakes and useful idiots all across the medium board. Unfortunately, it's snot.

Bypass the medium if you desire truth and enlightenment. And don't desire it for the false ego. Do it for that part of the inner trip which transcends who we are in this one specific life. I figured out I was Lenny Bruce, but that doesn't mean much. It just proves reincarnation is the way the universe works. I'm not saying give up on trying to save the planet. I'm saying ye are better than this. Be disciplined. Read a lot. Read real books. We seem to be born alone and then die alone, to come back again. Each life is a challenge to peel off layers of false ego karma onions.

Keep at it. Don't let the proverbial them simulate the action and outcome of your existence. As Alan Watts said, "You are the universe."
