Exquisitely written!
I can see it all,
in your words.

You might consider writing lyrics for a song. Hang on to it until you find musician(s).

No sad song, mind you, just a pointed message.

A Clarion Call, if you wish.

Thank you.

British band Supertramp summed it up way back when,’all the girls in California, I’m hoping it’s gonna come true’.

Now California has taken so many hits, I hear it’s starting to resemble some post-apocalypse Mad Max freak show. Newsom is a caricature of the fake know-nothing smarmy politician who got where he was because of money and connections. And he behaves accordingly.

If s/he was on a box of Wheaties today, would you eat ‘whatever’ GMO gunk was in the box?

Yuck.

could argue the trans are doing something to make the world what they want, as others watch baseball. Though, example trans also distracted by nonsense sports, but just making point. Either way need more reaction to mask dictators. Agree on politicians, or maybe its polit i shuns.

The newsom thing, imo, others calif govrmnt are same, so what difference really, they could put down mask mandates etc regardless of newsom but don’t. In any event, though see dif vision in part of article, still a little lol the comparison. So for me will just keep sharing the site, Jon’s unique writing, energy inspires creating. ~

best line to me, ‘ the Future is what’s important. A new world. To get there, we have to destroy the old one. ‘ – My new world would be. no dictators, a horse in every yard, for transport without gas, and helps plow the wheat. and where everyone has to be a warrior, male female kids everyone, responsible for future. and guard against mask dictators, and other invaders, and poisoning the land.

Then again isn’t that how we lived before supposed ‘govrmnt’ ? Wonder if flouride in water or maybe the mass plastic affects memory, so people forget.

Now, California is the opposite of everything it was once seen to be. People may still be coming, but not those who seek a fresh start in life or a chance to feel and be free. The sun may be there when the smog and ‘low-clouds-and-fog’ aren’t clogging the skies, but the fun is long gone. The Beach Boys are still around and trying to sing old songs about a place that no longer exists in real life and barely remains as a dim memory once held as a treasure in our minds.

The laid-back lifestyle has been replaced by crushing Rules & Regulations both being legislated from Sac-Town or just being force-fed on everyone by horribly deluded Wokesters who seem hellbent into turning the Former Golden State into an Earthly 21st Century version of Dante’s Most Lower World.

California was America’s Safety Valve. The one place left for new beginnings. The one place left to relieve the pressures that were building back where people came from and were trying to escape from. Now, that National Safety Valve is gone and the Tarnished State is now a big contributor to the pressure cooker that is contemporary America. There is no more safety valve. There is no more place to be or feel free. The pot is boiling over and all that glitters from LA and Bay Area skyscrapers is not gold.

The World lost a whole lot more than just a lush and bountiful State drawn on a map that was called California. The World lost an Attitude. The World lost it’s place to dream. The California Dream was turned into a Nightmare. Golden State Dreaming has become a Fool’s Gold State of scheming and screaming.

Fuckin’ politicians…????
