“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Rise of the Evil Ones” – “Krazy Rats Scenario”

Increase the density of the rat population – and they go crazy. It’s a myth – they say. So what’s our excuse? In a world so Doctrine-ordered; maybe our craziness is ordered too. Form Based Craziness. Maybe the craziness is so we can’t see what’s going on. Or maybe the craziness is to stop us from living comfortably together. Craziness gives a great power; but without sure control.

Will the craziness destroy us? It’s not brinkmanship – it’s a pattern of abuse: If they can’t have the world . . . then no one can.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Rise of the Evil Ones” – “Form Based Urban Sprawl”

“Form Based Code” advocates always postulate the best of all worlds for their own plans; and the worst for everyone else’s. This follows the modern technique where one side of an argument also presents the case for the opposition – invariably to their detriment. [A real debate, like real public participation, is considered a dangerous throwback.]

These planners use the same arguments as dictators have always used: decision making by citizens is inefficient and contains too many varied and conflicting viewpoints for a properly directed society. And their vision of everybody rowing together under one authority does not preclude the use of galley slaves.

Like architectural drawings; where the buildings come first and the people are thrown in in later – Form Based Codes are all about power of codes; not the lives of people. Their vision is not about making people happy – it’s about making people conform.

In a time when the public has no meaningful say in policy making – it’s beyond foolish to increase the scope of government policy making power.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Rise of the Evil Ones” – “The Puppet Show”

Got me again. Even though I wrote about the bureaucratic trick of referring you to another department – another bureaucrat, and another and another — I requested the support that was promised with petition signatures: and received nothing – no response to my emails at all. It took waiting a couple of days to sink in.

The Holidays are a dangerous time for citizens; the weeks between Thanksgiving and New Years are the season for sliding in unwanted decisions and developments – while the opposition is busy elsewhere. Ho, Ho, Holy Cow! What was that resolution!? I thought that was tabled until January!

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Rise of the Evil Ones” – “Load Stomach”

Too much turkey, and you won’t be climbing many of those ladders. A full stomach can make you content – not to worry about where the next meal is coming from – not to worry where the money for this meal is coming from. Where do all those government payments come from? The future.

So sit back, loosen your belt, and watch the game: it’s a race between global warming, over population, pandemic pathogens, and crashing debt.

That’s OK – we can make it all better with a combination Artificial Intelligence and GMO Nanotechnology . . . Oops.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Rise of the Evil Ones” – “Form Based Boiler Room”

Balance yourself on the pipes to find a way across the bed of hot Prohibitions – but even following the pipes can’t prevent you from being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Today’s Doctrine monitors, not only your actions, but your thoughts — and the looks of anxiety and fear are everywhere in Cornithaca County. One Thought – One Taught – One Voice – One Choice.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “If Wisdom is extinct” Bumper sticker

“If Wisdom is extinct; how far behind are we?” In thinking back; all the cautions of arrogance, and the counselling of Wisdom have disappeared – all the governors that stop runaway pride and hubris have been removed.

Our social policies directly contradict the lives and beliefs of every notable figure of human worth and equality.

Our scientists eschew the advice of unpredictable and disastrous worldwide consequences; by covering their asses with unaccountability.

Our activists bond with the same forms and institutions as those whom they decry; in competition, rather than in opposition.

The “gadfly” is now considered a disruptive force – a noise in the “lossy” one-voice rhetoric of today’s authoritative elite.

Young people are media-fed on attractive lies; growing unnaturally, like 6 month old chickens that are bigger than an adult of the last century – and for the same purpose: money.

Everything that contradicts and competes with today’s Doctrine of Using has been relegated and erased — and that includes the wisdom and humanity of millennia.

We’re calling on science to drive us ever faster from the scene of our crimes — but in one global world; we’re only racing more quickly to meet it as we come full circle.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Rise of the Evil Ones” – “Form Basted Thanksgiving”

The form based conventions and convocations of Thanksgiving are everything that Form Based Codes are not – they’re all about people. And when there’s no room left for food and drink; there’s room on the couch for a snooze.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Five workers are scheduled” Bumper sticker

No matter how much you reduce your expectations in the workplace; you have to keep lowering the bar.

It was an older woman working the grocery store checkout yesterday who told me about the “five workers” scenario – and she wasn’t happy. For her; it meant an unending line of unhappy customers.

The lie that they’re only hurting the company is refuted by the curses of those who have to carry the extra load – those who work for the same disparaged wages; are those who suffer the most. I know this from experience.

Not paying for auto insurance doesn’t hurt the insurance companies; it’s just added to the amount others have to pay – you’re climbing on the backs of those already struggling to keep their heads above water.

Today’s “Workless Ethic” crew blame the lack of a motor; while refusing to help the rowers. They’re shooting at a paper target; when they know that the bullets are going into the homes in back of it . . . and they really don’t care.

If you want to get the lowdown on low-pay shirkers — just ask low-pay workers.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Education 101” Bumper sticker

According to the new ABCs: “Authority, Bureaucracy, Conformity” — citizens should wait for the proper experts to get them out of any difficulty; praising them for their salvation, or dismissing the victims as being “in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

Citizens coming upon an emergency should call 911, text a friend to call 911, or post it on Facebook . . . while our “Bread and Circuses” Media tosses another sanitized tidbit into their scheduling abyss.

“All Roads Lead to Cornithaca” – “Rise of the Evil Ones” – Form Based Evil – “Stone the Unbeliever”

“Everybody must get stoned” Bob Dylan sang; and certainly, today’s societal climate favors gang violence against those who don’t conform – with the hate disappearing back into “normalcy” as quickly as it appears.

“Well, they’ll stone you and say that it’s the end – Then they’ll stone you and then they’ll come back again”

A lesson learned: there is no end to the constraints of conformity – and no constancy will guarantee your safety.

[If you are wondering why the bloodstains are the same in all these images: Form Based Evil is unchanging.]
