The Three C’s - The Three C’s are: clicks, clout, and cash.
Currently HATE sells better than SEX in America. Although the combination of HATE and SEX really sells.
Find a small group of people that can’t easily defend themselves; make them a scape goat in the 21st century American culture wars; attack them in as many arenas as possible; and, then solicit funds for your cause in every imaginable arena possible.
The HATE will get you “clicks” on your website; the CLICKS will get you “clout”and elevate your hatred in the arena of public discourse and social mediums; and, the CLOUT will earn you “cash” for your progrom.
Use the cash to by judges — especially in Supreme Courts — power, influence and friends in high places.
What could possibly go wrong?
This is how, for example, a few parents can ban thousands of books that they, surely, haven’t read.
And they don’t want anyone to read them. Why expand your mind and think? There are many people willing to tell you exactly what is right.
God help us all.
Every time we have lived a “movie” like this; the ending inevitably includes mass casualty events.
Maybe we should all read All of the books on every banned book list so we can learn exactly what they don’t want us to know.

I’m singling out my hatred of persnickety liberal vegans on all of my social media for The Three C’s: clicks, clout, and cash. But really, I just want to buy a new car.

You Come at the King, You Best Not Miss! — The is one of the most famous lines from the George Pellicanos / David Simon series The Wire. Originally spoken by Street King and “drug dealer robber” Omar Little to the drug gang hit man Roland “Wee-Bey” Brice after Brice unsuccessfully tries to collect the bounty on Omar’s head in an ambush.
After the Brice is wounded and his crew is killed, Omar leaves Wee-Bey conspicuously alive uttering the famous words:
“Yo Bey, the lesson here is: You Come at the King, You Best Not Miss!”
Amazingly years after The Wire series ran, this line is now being quoted verbatim by the American News Media in the general direction of lawmakers attempting to bring Donald J. Trump to justice.
I don’t know which is more paradoxical: hearing a White woman say this while affecting a Baltimore Black-cent; or, that this warning is being given to lawmakers about a former president of the United States.
Wow…now, y’all got the briefcase AND the gun.

I want to see Trump brought to justice and treated exactly like both Reality Winner and Jack Teixeira. But, words of wisdom to the Justice Department: You Come at the King, You Best Not Miss!

an on going situation — a masterful piece of urban understatement. To say that you have “an ongoing situation” is saying that the shit has hit the fan and there is neither an end to the shit in sight; nor, any sign of the fan failing to rotate.
The health department has to close the rid shack down until further notice. The vermin problem had become an on going situation.

Newjazz is a “nom de guerre” or sobriquet for a man or woman on a mission in a place they shouldn’t be attending; doing things that they shouldn’t be doing.
A cultural guide or insider gets you in and introduces you as “Newjazz” to protect your identity; and, to allow you to move more freely and safely while partaking of forbidden delights.
It is generally understood that a person baring the name “Newjazz” is a first time attendee AND his or her hesitancy and/or awkwardness should be forgiven until they relax and become more comfortable in the surroundings.
However, the price of this indulgence is some type of social initiation to formalize your relationship to the community in which you are a guest. This can take the form of a public performance based on “venue activity” or the intake of powerful substances that could potentially BLOW YOUR MIND.
This term is made popular by season 3 episode 8 of Atlanta named — not surprisingly — New Jazz.

a minute late or a second slow — The epitaph for every stand up guy and hard man who dies with his boot on. They don’t die in their sleep or retire to become farmers. This is the Urban equivalent of a Viking Death without the hope of a Valhalla.
I’ll see you at the crossroads.
I’ll see you at the crossroads.
There in only one end for a hard man no matter how good he is: one day he will be a minute late or a second slow and he will die with iron in his hand and lead in his body.

The Wisconsin Death trip is a celebration of life in the midst of death, and a celebration of death in the midst of life. Common elements of the death trip include:
The Funeral Drinking Game
Photography of the person laying in state.
The endless loop Seasons of Your Life animation montage of the deceased
Memorial Day cemetery picnics
Cookie Cutters made from home casting raised letters from tombstones
Meeting a future spouse at a funeral
Dealing with death stress by having particularly good sex
But, there are regional variations.
Some of this has been documented in a book called Wisconsin Death Trip by Michael Lesy, Charles Van Schaik, and Warren Susman.

I thought I could escape the Wisconsin Death Trip by moving away from Wisconsin until I realized that we all carry the Wisconsin death trip within us — even people who aren’t from Wisconsin.
