Three year old child's terrifying 'imaginary mum' <br />https://www.sott.net/article/387997-Haunted-Three-year-old-childs-terrifying-imaginary-mum<br /><br />Meet Ruby, 3, who either has an extremely vivid imagination or is being haunted by a pregnant teen ghost. The little girl's description of her imaginary friend (who, frankly, sounds more like a trapped spirit from another era) was tweeted on Monday by actress Natalie Morales. <br /><br />Morales was rightfully scared by Ruby's "imaginary mum, Grateful." The child details many frightening specifics about her so-called friend: "Her yellow eyelashes mean she can see in the dark - she only comes to see me at night-time. It scares me sometimes, but I always want her to come back. She has two babies in her belly. She's 14, but can never have a birthday." <br />[more; nyaaaaah-aaaaaaaaaaaah!

Over the past two days it has grown two miles closer to Durango, Colorado on the south side and is now seven miles from the north edge of the city, covering a total of 23,378 acres.<br /><br />The west side of the 416 Fire has been the location of most of the activity recently where it has spread seven miles west of Highway 550 and to within six miles of another blaze, the 2,337-acre Burro Fire.

Has No Clothes. <br />http://ponziworld.blogspot.com/2018/06/the-last-emperor.html<br /><br />I just watched a sordid documentary about Trump's kingmaker, Roger Stone, proving that all it takes for democracy to fail is widespread nihilism, cynicism, and ignorance. The demagogue figures out what the mob wants to hear and works backwards to the podium...<br />While intending to profile Trump's controversial kingmaker Roger Stone, the film inadvertently documents the process by which the Republican party descended into depravity by becoming the party of hate, war, and unbounded greed. Cloaked in the artifice of Christian family values. <br /><br />Interestingly, I used to be extremely conservative, especially on economic issues. I had been brainwashed by business school. Over time however, as I compared economic reality to the textbook fantasy I had been taught, I eventually came to realize that modern conservatism is merely Ayn Randian fiction: The inversion of morality from altruism to self-interest leading to an imbalanced cycle of greed and collapse which will terminate in anarchy. Those who never grow out of this zero sum Lord of the Flies mentality are the ones who never really grow up. Enter Trump, who exhibits the behavior and literacy of a petulant child. The hand-picked sock puppet of Roger Stone.
