I’m woefully bored. I feel like instead of krautrock. We are living in an era which didn’t respect histories poem. I’ve tried looking into why Reconstruction wasn’t effective, I’ve determined our government appeased unlikable fascist losers. Trump’s cultural dishonesty receives too much appeasement.
Prior to sleeping I scour several cities Craigslists for where I might escape. I try to determine if Donald Trump’s Ohio domination over Hillary Clinton, and Biden is why I shouldn’t live in Columbus, Ohio.
If you know…..anywhere is better than here is my constant mantra.
I received an email. Kraftwerk at Express Live Friday May 17. I pondered….who would open for Kraftwerk?
A quick web browsing determined Kraftwerk performs for two hours, prompt without openers. Kraftwerk is one of the groups who invented everything. Kraftwerk influenced Juan Atkins and his friends who invented Techno in Detroit.
DILLA.
We’ve reached a turning point in the legal efforts by the Ohio History Connection to reclaim the Newark Octagon for the public. The trial to determine the compensation the Ohio History Connection (OHC) must pay to Moundbuilders Country Club (MCC) to buy back their leasehold on the Octagon is scheduled for May 28.
The Ohio Supreme Court in 2022 ruled that the OHC could use eminent domain to buy back the lease which had allowed MCC over a century ago to build an 18-hole golf course within and around the Octagon itself, and thus play a game on this sacred structure. The court’s ruling was necessary for UNESCO to name the Octagon and other Hopewell Ceremonial Earthworks as Ohio’s first World Heritage site, which it did in 2023.
The Octagon was originally purchased by the citizens of Newark and Licking County to preserve them so to ensure they were kept and held “free to visitation at all times on the part of the public at large under reasonable rules and regulations.”

Students for Justice in Palestine and Palestine Diaspora Movement came together for a statewide protest. May 15th was the 76th anniversary of the Palestinian Nakba, which means "catastrophe."
The 1948 founding of Israel was preceded and accompanied by a massive ethnic cleansing operation to remove as many of the Muslim and Christian inhabitants as possible. During Israel's "war of independence," over 750,000 Palestinians were driven from their homes, never to be allowed to return. Hundreds of towns were razed; villagers were massacred.
Tragically, Israel has violated human rights in a similar fashion and on an unprecedented scale over the past 7 months during its attacks on Gaza, drawing global condemnation and breaching international law.

Instead of praising Gen Z for their courage, bravery and clear understanding of the US Constitution which enshrined, in its First Amendment, the guarantees of freedoms concerning religion, expression, assembly, and the right to petition, including protecting individuals' rights to free speech, and assembly in public spaces and settings, including public universities, the Attorney General of the Great State of Ohio sent a letter to Ohio's college presidents advising them that “prosecutors could use a generation-old law intended to curtail KKK activities to instead charge campus protesters with a felony,” as reported by the Columbus Dispatch.
