Death *insert creepy music here*

I have a *theme* people for this week, lol.

I have a saying “If you want to be respected in death, be respectful in life”. Madgelna Burns was transphobic, racist and anti-semantic, she was pretty much the female equivalent of Rush Limbaugh. Yet, any time a pro-trans person brings up what she did or quote her, we’re the ghouls?

I’ve always found this “love the horrible when they were alive dead people” thing, odd.

You are under absolutely no obligation to “respect” the dead. You don’t have to show up for them. The only I do, is when they die, is not say a thing. After about 3-6 months, they are “game” again. And always remember if you call someone a ghoul, for quote tweeting someone. What does that say about the person who actually said it?

It’s your life, if you want to spend it whining about what a horrible dead person, might think of you repeating what they said. If it makes you feel any better, I doubt they honestly care. They’re not going to “come back” from the dead, and have at go at you for repeating what they said. Seems like a waste of a life if you ask me.

Respect is earned … Unpopular opinion

I am going to be honest, I am a little over the whole you have to respect dead people. If the dead people wanted to be respected, maybe they should have been respectful in life? I wont say things, because I don’t know who might be hurt. But I am sure as hell not going to be quiet either when someone says we should be respectful towards dead people.

Hitler’s dead, do I have to be nice about him?

Like bugger off.

If someone was a kind person while they were alive, go for it. But why should I give respect to someone dead, who didn’t give respect to others while they were alive?

It’s a weird concept too me.

I almost get when someone horrible dies, that the people they hurt, might do something weird, like my Nanna did with my Poppa. They HATED each other and my Poppa was abusive. When he died though, she wouldn’t stop saying what a great man he was…

I got it, to begin with. However, once everything had settled down, she was still saying it. It was almost like because their lives were so entwined for a long time. She actually did feel lost without him. I get it, I get that.

When someone like Rush Limbaugh died, I didn’t get it. He was a horrible human being, too everyone. And people were saying stupid stuff like “Oh you’re just jealous, because he’s going to heaven before you” My literal response was every single time “If he’s going to Heaven, I’ll go to Hell thank you very much”.

Isn’t it funny?

How it’s the “pro-life” group are the group of people who really put me off having kids? lol.

They just come up with the stupidest argument’s I’ve ever seen.

One said to me…

“Well if your mother had made that decision (an abortion) how would you have felt about life that we get to experience” And we all replied to her “Nothing, you’re aborted…I doubt, I would have thought much, if anything”. I wouldn’t have life, to experience, lol … I would have been aborted.

Then another one said “I just find it funny how you’ll fight for Turtles, Dolphins (and I forget the other ones) but you wont fight for fetuses.” As we mentioned “We’re not Turtles, Dolphins, heck, fetuses aren’t even fully formed humans and animals are nicer”. Also that fetuses aren’t developed enough to choose what they want to even fight for. Animals don’t get a choice, humans do … generally.

I am a Pro-Choice, but I know I could never do it. Not for a single second though, should that mean other’s shouldn’t have that choice, and neither do I look down on it for them. I am not them.

Another thing that’s “funny”.

Is the amount of women, who have made me realise how horrible women are. My whole life, I’ve been surrounded by positive, strong and take no shit women. Yet, seeing these TERFs and insecure hateful women, has really opened my eyes to how horrible women can actually be. In a weird way, it’s funny, because these “women” are exposing the rest of us like we are Regina George, who doesn’t change at the end.

I literally HATE those women. If you can’t fight for women without, lying, without doing “alternative truths”, then you’re NOT fighting women. You’re fighting for YOUR ego. You’re fighting for YOUR fears. You’re fighting to be Overlords, which is what actual Feminists do not want, and is very much the Patriarchy, Which apparently, they’re supposed to be against.

Questions:

Do guns protect people or kill people?  Or both?

Guns kill. Too me, that’s the whole function of a gun. It’s there to kill, whether it’s because you’re hunting an animal, or shooting at an intruder. The point of a gun is too kill. Even if you’re shooting at an intruder to protect your family, and you shoot and they die. They still died. The gun didn’t talk to the intruder to put it on a better path. They’re dead…Stone cold dead. You may shoot at someone to protect your family, but that gun that you are shooting at another human being with, can still kill them. That’s what they’re for…To kill.

Is it more important to be respected or liked?

Respected.

Is having a big ego a negative or  positive trait?  (yeah I know.  Duh. But there ought to be one “gimme’ in the pile)

Sometimes it could be a positive trait, a big ego, you think you’re unstoppable. I do think there’s a difference between a huge ego and a narcissistic personality disorder though. I think there’s actually nothing wrong with a big ego, as long as you’re not harming others with it,lol

Depending on your point of view, is death a new beginning? 

I love the movie “The Mummy” and one of the quotes in there is when Imhotep says “Death in only the beginning”. I think it is, to an extent. I do think that there are such things as Guardian Angels, Angels, rebirth. I do believe that we come here to learn lessons, and then far later on we are reborn as someone else. That’s why I believe in soul mates. I believe that we meet certain people, in each life.

It’s tough right now to count the blessings we have.   Being grateful for being confined to our homes and having reality skewed out of kilter for some is depressing.   So if there is something positive or uplifting or something you’re grateful for that you’d like to share (pictures, memes, images, thoughts) please!  Do share!  Thanks!   🙂

Oooahhh, ahhh…That’s how it always starts…Then later there’s running and screaming…

In a sci-fi twist, Tasmanian tigers could actually be coming back from extinction

Over 80 years ago the Tasmanian Tiger became extinct. Now it seems like they have found a new cloning technique that may bring the animal back

Can I borrow a feeling?

Well I clearly and blatantly ripped that title off =P I started to write this post while having a drinky drinky night with a friend and how certain songs just bring out an emotion in us and no matter where you are, or how you are feeling, at the sound of that first note, you will instantly be triggered.

Below I have created a list of certain situations, that probably we’ve all found ourselves in at some point, but these are the songs that just trigger that emotion for me. The links are all to YouTube

  • Any ex partner:

Within Temptation: Angels

  • Those who are in my heart and have passed: (especially for my Great GrandFather)

Wishing you were somewhere again – Phantom of the Opera

  • That day I become stronger than what my ex partners did:

  • The ex partner that is messed up on in the inside, so you can’t hate them:

Better Than Me – Hinder

  • When I first start falling in love … Nawwwwwwwww

Your Guardian Angel – Red Jumpsuit Apparatus … Sometimes I sing this to my pets,lol

  • The song I can’t even listen to when my heart breaks:

I can’t break it to my heart – Delta Goodrem

Share Your World … Week 22

Share Your World … Week 22

  1. Every country in the world has lost men and women in some kind of Armed Forces.  When does your country celebrate or morn their deaths? (Optional)
    I live in the Country Down Under and we have two days here. The major one is on the 25th of April, every year. It’s called ANZAC Day, ‘ANZAC’ stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps. It’s celebrated on this day as on the morning of 25 April 1915, the Anzacs set out to capture the Gallipoli peninsula in order to open the Dardanelles to the allied navies. The other is November 11th (I think that this is celebrated a lot though). 11:11am we take a one minute silence…Remembrance Day.
  1. What is your favorite holiday or holidays?
    I am a Christmas girl all the way. The feeling of the season just brings out my happy side. I spend all year getting little bits here and there all year. It’s amazing what you can save when you put a little away each week/fortnight.
  2. How do you celebrate that holiday?
    Another reason that I love the season is that it brings everyone out and brings the whole family together. We have a very traditional Christmas, same traditions every year. Ones that have been in our families for years.

Tolkien Reading Day

I just found out that not only is it Good Friday, but every 25th of March is http://www.tolkiensociety.org/events/tolkien-reading-day-2016/ and according to the “The Tolkien Society” there is a theme every year, and this years theme is “Life, Death and Immortality”

So what will you be reading today? Also excuse me for a looking a little “Witchy” (also I apologise for the URL link stuff up, I’m not sure what’s happening there).

Live Safari Update!

As you all know I am a MASSIVE fan of the Safari Live hosted by Nat Geo, Wild Earth and Ustream. I realised though I haven’t posted for a long time about the drives. One of the major reasons this is because there has been great upheaval in the land of Djuma, Arthusa Safari Lodge and the Sabi Sands Wildtuin!

Mainly with the new collation of young male adults called the Birmingham Boys, or as there new nickname is “The Bad Boys”. There are five of them, there were 6, but one was killed but other male Lions. They’ve gotten there nickname as they’ve killed two cubs, leaving one alive, because Mama Lioness was only able to save the one. They’ve killed about five lionesses (I’ll double check that, it’s 4 or 5). So far there are has been little interaction between these boys and the Matimba males, other than calling and vocalising.

The Bad Boys

(The Birmingham Boys aka “The Bad Boys” or “The BBoys”)

Matimba Males

(The Matimba Males: Hairy Belly and Ginger)

The whole situation is really depressing and really interesting at the same time. I’ve only ever heard of new males killing cubs, which I can understand completely. The whole BBoys killing the Lionesses is something completely new to me and even some of our guides seem perplexed by the situation, because they are just killing so many of them.  There is one thought that maybe the Lionesses are resisting the BBoy’s and because they are young and full of testosterone. They came in aggressive, so it’s gets all aggressive type thing.

Just for another interesting twist in the story as well, two other Male lions, who are unidentified, have now also appeared on the scene. Possibly the other two Matimba males from further up North?
