Screw You

I know why bastard has negative connotations. Historically, if you were born out of wedlock, life was going to be extremely tough.

On Cyburbia, there was a conversation once about "Special is the new retard." They routinely rename economic recessions and the new word soon means the same as the old.

I spent years baffled by why "fuck you" or "go fuck yourself" is harsh language. Why would get laid and masturbate be expressions for jacking your shit up?

And then I recently wrote this piece.

Someone once said to me "I'm the fucker. You're the fuckee." because it was a heterosexual relationship and I'm a woman.  

My former sister in law would be in her fifties and raised three children by an alcoholic boyfriend who never married her. The third child is probably the product of rape and it may not be the only one.

She's probably still fucked. Her life has never recovered. 

I'm sixty and did marry the father of my children and had more rights and benefits as a military wife than a lot of women get and my life still hasn't recovered from supporting a man's career and raising kids and I'm substantially better educated than her.

She got fucked. As in royally fucked over.

She got fucked so hard her life will NEVER recover. 

And she probably didn't even have an orgasm.

Me and Languages

My mother's mother came from a low level German noble family. Mom was born and mostly raised in Danzig, a very cosmopolitan freistadt (independent city state), except for the years that the family spent in the country during World War II to try to safeguard everyone as best they could. When the war ended, she found herself in the newly created communist East Germany where she was required to take Russian in school, which is why I know a few words of Russian. She left East Germany to return her sister's baby to her , so she was a young illegal immigrant in West Germany when she met my father at a party. She spoke extremely proper High German. His American accent plus the fact that he mostly learned German from farmers, meant she couldn't understand a word he spoke and she asked someone what language he was speaking. My older sister was born in Germany. Her first language was actually German and she translated for my parents while she was a toddler. So I grew up in a bilingua...

Medical care in the US

This is a thought I've had a long time: If you served in the US military and were honorably discharged , you should get medical benefits for the rest of your life . That would drastically reduce the need for Obamacare which is a lousy solution to what's wrong with American healthcare. We have some of the best medical stuff in the world -- IF you're rich. In fact, people travel here to get it -- IF they're rich. Meanwhile, most of our people are left out in the cold and living with stupid levels of stress about the COST of medical care, etc. We should not be putting the health of wealthy foreigners above that of the American people. I mean unless you WANT the world to invade, take us over and etc. The people who raised their right hand and swore to give their life for their country and were honorably discharged should be told by actions, not words, "You are the kind of people America values." Obamacare just plays into this bullshit medical system where money ...

POV

1953 – 2025 U.S. Relations With Iran Deeply unpopular among much of the population, the shah relies on U.S. support to remain in power until his overthrow in 1979. I turned fourteen in 1979. Navarre likely turned 31 and perhaps was finally released from prison. We didn't really speak much of it, so my understanding of those events and how that impacts his life is limited. My understanding is he spent three years in prison for his political activism and got married at age 28. I'm guessing he was newly married when he got locked up for reasons I was never told. Of his release, what I know is that he learned French in prison and was about to start studying German "when they let him out." I infer that he was expecting to remain in prison and his release was a surprise, so I'm guessing the 1979 revolution is likely the explanation for his seemingly sudden and unexpected release from prison. I saw two headlines today and didn't click into the articles. One said Isra...
