Re-habitualize

Betty Ford clinic?

Too late.

We need to press re-start. From the beginning. Again.

No way in this world, this time around.

Yes, if Putin, the bully, had his way, he would push all the way to “ends of Earth”.

His self-appointed “Great Commission”.

He should have been toilet-trained more properly: put the trash here, sit over there, and DO NOT hit your classmate.

Too late.

For re-parenting. Re-habitualize and re-form.

The only language bullies of the world understand is FORCE bigger and more painful than they themselves exert on others…like Ukraine, like Poland ( they missed it first time around).

We need more than 007 and Reacher.

We need the whole wide world coming down on them. Not just free fly zone. Not just NO MORE RUSSIAN OIL. Not just NO MORE CREDIT CARDS. Not just NO MORE Big Macs (Thomas Friedman’s theory of “any two countries with a McDonald don’t go to war” – well, came to a head).

The whole world, N Korea, China, Venezuela, India, Iraq….BTW, what are those Indian-decent techs driving Teslas quietly around Austin doing? Why don’t they pressure their own government to shun Russia? Can’t have a cake and eat it too.

For too long, we have allowed people, cake-eaters, to be cake-keepers.

Can’t do it. Unsustainable. It’s just physics. What is consumed transformed into compost to generate energy e.g. cow fart and s*it (ask UC Davis professor who has studied methane for two decades).

No way around it. Can’t rationalise it away.

I am heading toward my end my beginning. Not much fear left in me.

Wish I could join the Foreign Legion. The other option might be to google map the Ukrainian Embassy in D.C. , then hold a sign out front that says :

“Put PUTIN in rehab”.

On Sunday, God rests, then we close the book. Take a drive in the hill country.

Thinking the toilet-training has been done.. Until, the tanks rolled across the border, until the refugees fled across the border, until the nuclear reactors got occupied … Putin has been eyeing everything. His self-appointed Messianic complex and his Great Commission…”Go ye, unto the ends of Earth, subdue every nation, JEWS and Gentiles, under the Soviet 2.0 umbrella…”. Then we can have Woodstock 2.0 Peace on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Sit. Sit. Sit. Put the trash here. Don’t touch your classmates. DO NOT TOUCH anything. You’re grounded.
