TREE HOUSE NEWS 🏡

Land of Whispering Pines 🌲

Good morning! May the Great Spirit bless you 🙏

Well, we again have a beautiful, bright, sunny morning out there, cool but bright. I like the brightness; greyness feels like I'm moving through a cloud with the density of molasses, as if I'm carrying around a 500-pound sack on my back. Anyway, I did feel like that when I first got up, but once I saw the sun come up over the trees, my mood changed, and I thought I would begin today's comments on a happier note.

Using Humor As a Healthy Coping Mechanism

You share funny videos on TikTok. A friend texts you a meme. In the midst of a tense situation or painful circumstances, the laughs those gestures bring can be just the relief you need. Humor is often a way to cope with difficulties. Research shows that when people are stressed or anxious, they become calmer and more at ease after enjoying a good joke...

I was looking for an old Stompin' Tom tune to attach to a post in one of my social networks and happened upon the one below. This tune brings memories of happy days on the road. That tune turned my crank for the day. I do believe today will be a pretty fine day.😉

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9gg8GEy-ls

P.S. I may have even beaten Stompin' Tom's itinerary. I don't know if he ever heard of Mims or Sawgrass, Florida, Washburn, Tennessee, or Dildo, Labrador. I thought that was a neat one. And oh, Peach Springs, Arizona, on the Grand Canyon Hualapai Reservation, land of the cute little prickly pear cactuses. Ah, I could fill a book about each place I liked and set roots in for a while, ya know, hang my hat on a peg and call it home—the camper and truck days.

I have a doctor's appointment. Still, I can't grumble about this one, it is necessary I see him so I can set up my prescriptions to match the time I will not be seeing him until spring, in March or April, when the bug season, COVID and FLU, what I call that killer bugs season, is over ⚫️<-Big period that's it.

It's hibernation time until I completely recover from all this crap, the knives, and other complications I have gone through over the last 25 years. I would so love to know how it feels to wake every day, knowing that I'm going to feel and be aware that I'm alive, without having to feel every part of my body complaining when I shouldn't even be aware of the inner working parts or even be reminded they're there. THAT IS ALL THAT I PRAY FOR IN THE NEW. YEAR* I NEED A BREAK, TIME TO HEAL, "Hot Stuff 👹🔱 , Go masturbate yourself in the seventh circle of Hell ♨️🔥👹😈😈👿👹👺💀👾 , for a while, OK! Like about half past eternity!" 🤣

My Opinion:

And do whatever turns your crank today, in a positive way, whether it be in what you can contribute in a physical, mental, spiritual, or scientific capacity to advance humanity. Even the tiniest of deeds, shared or new information, or data are recorded on the fabric of time and space. You can only make a difference if you listen to your little inner voice, or what your heart says, and you get off your duff and do it!

I pray you all have a productive, safe, and blessed day. Thank you for reading the Tree House News.

BREAKING NEWS:

Reality catches up with Trump’s Ukraine peace drive and threatens his Mideast push

Wishing for peace is far easier than making peace.

President Donald Trump’s grand ambitions in the Middle East and Ukraine are struggling against their own internal limitations and the horrific hangovers of two brutal wars. Trump ditched plans for a quick second summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin, declaring Tuesday that he didn’t want to waste his time, in the latest dizzying gyration of his drama-laden but so far futile peace push...

*Trump needs to work both wars around the clock

*How the latest Russia plan fizzled:

The Middle East win was meant to inject a boost into the Russia effort:

National Guard deployment latest as anti-ICE protests flare from coast to coast

What We're Covering Here:

• A dizzying lineup of legal disputes is unfolding today in President Donald Trump’s push to deploy US troops to Democratic-led cities. At this moment, a federal judge is holding a hearing on whether to extend an order blocking the deployment of National Guard troops to Chicago.

• While Trump leans on a new federal appeals court ruling backing his deployment of the National Guard to Portland, Oregon, he’s urging the US Supreme Court to allow a similar effort in Chicago. The latter case is one of the most significant emergency requests to reach the high court lately and almost certain to spill over as litigation plays out elsewhere, including Memphis.

• Immigration raids, meanwhile, keep flaring up across the country. In New York, bystanders stepped in Tuesday during a raid along Manhattan's Canal Street, while in Los Angeles, a US marshal and a TikTok streamer who is undocumented were hurt in a shooting at an ICE stop.

World Court says Israel must allow UN aid into Gaza

The International Court of Justice said Wednesday that Israel must allow the United Nations aid agency in Gaza, known as UNRWA, to provide humanitarian assistance to the war-torn territory. The UN General Assembly asked the court last year to give an advisory opinion on Israel's legal obligations after the country effectively banned the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, the main provider of aid to Gaza, from operating in the territory.

Israel "is under the obligation to agree to and facilitate relief schemes provided by the United Nations and its entities, including UNRWA," the court's president Yuji Iwasawa said...

They're about as useful as the UN people, without America, they're nothing but a bunch of CLUCKIN' CHICKENS!

Netanyahu is charged with genocide by the World Court of Justice. He is still walking free as a self-proclaimed tin can god with American weapons from his American Comrade, who happens also to be a convicted felon. Mass Murderer Putin is still walkin' about free as a lark. Now we have Zelensky, and the UN turns its back on him because 💩 head, the Orange Pus Bag 🟠🤮🧳 commander-in-chief, bent feather 🪶 of Bizarromerica 🟰✨ pulls his pants down, squats, and tells them to bow down and kiss his 💩ty diaper.

Some Conservative MPs doubt Poilievre’s leadership after podcast remarks about RCMP

Poilievre said Trudeau broke law, called RCMP leadership ‘despicable’

After Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre blasted RCMP leadership on a podcast, some party members are questioning whether they will continue supporting him. Five Conservative caucus members who spoke to Radio-Canada said Poilievre has not changed his message enough since the last election campaign and is not projecting an image befitting a prime minister.

Radio-Canada is not naming the sources so they can speak freely about internal party matters...

Remarks target former RCMP commissioner, Poilievre says:

Now back to normalcy. I pray you all farewell in this turbulent sea of insanity. "Warning," the loudspeaker shrieks! "Stand by for heavy rolls as the ship comes about!" With guns a' blazing, the sky is torn asunder by flashes of orange light all around. The roar of the sea or the roar of the madness of the sea, which will get me bones first? What have I got to lose? I will remain until the last man, woman, and child has found haven from this devil storm.

WE CAN'T GIVE UP. I found it's easy to fall to the bottom of the hole; but once down there, ya've gots ta make up yer mind ifs ya wants ta stay there, or move on, man! You can't fall any further, and there is only one way to go, and that's back up, one hand held at a time.
