20/20 Gonzo 58: The Tune Out


No comment, my Lords.  The glowgods were all gathered, Zapp and Bree were bossing all the other gods around, talking about search engines and algorithms.  The social club protested, Geka and Lars were completely aghast, calling them old fogies and mocking their bossing.  Bont and Tona didn't care, if they coded it, they coded it, Scol and Kish could worry about the transmissions, that was their job.  Mostly, it was petty god bickering, I didn't want to get involved.


The capacity to ignore, like turning the cheek, like avoiding primal instincts, like chilling.  Not immediately, a chance is given, an open mind, an attempt to understand and reason, but wasting time is a no no.  Out of eyes and ears, out of mind.  It will nag, this something being ignored, it will remind, its annoying little ways.  The tune out still has some static, but the volume fades and fades.

  

Step 1 is deciding what to ignore.  Next, ignore any judgement by others on what is ignored, this is a personal exercise.  Then, ignore any doubting thoughts, step 1 should not be taken lightly, count the costs prior to deciding what to ignore.  As a general rule, ignore the uninspiring, ignore the hopeless, ignore the cynics.  Your attention is too valuable, ignore wisely.

Sources Say 5: The Fool's Century

  On the inside it's uglier than most can imagine.  Scandal, cover ups, hook ups, and pick-me-ups.  No telling what kinda narcotics float around, pill to pill, shot to shot, dose to dose, a pharmaceutical disaster.  Like Elvis without any music or Chuck Berry without any moves or Bruce Lee without any kicks or Speedy Gonzales without any speed.  Just dizzy, slurring pigment obsessed drunks, sources say. What does CBS stand for anyway?  Doesn't matter now, they've become irrelevant, a bleak reminder of last century.  The fool's century.  Duped and looped.  Now we know. We started in around the late 40's, picking fights, manipulation, sinister and crude.  Stealthy.  Spies with eyes in the skies.  Peace was never kept, it was invaded.  America was a TV show on CBS.

Sources Say 2: They Miss The Ink

  Related to manipulation abuse, but with a capitalistic twist.  They are paid by the manipulators and the victims of manipulation.  It's a winning business model until the walls come crumbling down on the street, until the curtains pull back.  You thought Oz was bad, at least they got you back to Kansas.  These journal jerks got nothing. Even a few of my sources have moved on, the wreck has left the place dim and disgruntled.  Evidently, what's-her-name stormed out of a staff meeting in tears, mumbling something about pills and booze and karaoke night.  Guess it didn't go well.  Everyone laughed at her when she left the room, seems a real toxic work environment.  They miss the ink. But that won't stop them from cheering on China, and for good reasons.  Ask the finance department.  Money's money, honey, and they got the name, the bull statue, the cufflinks.  They got smear jobs, insinuations, and an editorial board.  Somew...
