Replay: Putting Crazy on Mute | From Behind the Pen

Sometimes dysfunction has a way of clamoring against all logic in your mind, and oftentimes, such dysfunction interferes with what we think should be common sense principles. I shared this post four years ago and still find it necessary to re-sing this poem today amid the frenzy of life.

Putting Crazy on Mute

Today, I am hitting the mute button
crazy will not distract, consume or overpower me
not today, not tomorrow and the next day ain’t lookin’ too good either.

Today, I am hitting the mute button
on ludicrous thinking, conversations, and behaviors
stuff that baffles the existentialism of human intellect.

Today, I am hitting the mute button
blotting out nonsense from the addiction to wayward tolerance
insanity from aversions leaving me completely bewildered.

Today, I am hitting the mute button
not trying to make sense of those who are compromising integrity
as decency swirls and is flushed in an abyss of pure darkness.

Today, I am hitting the mute button
shedding the craziness, zapping my energy, leading me to despair
I shall not be a glutton for such punishment, no not today.

Israeli rights group details systematic abuse of Palestinians in Israel’s jails – France24

Israel has conducted a systematic policy of prisoner abuse and torture since the start of the war in Gaza, subjecting Palestinian detainees to acts ranging from arbitrary violence to sexual abuse, a report from Israeli rights group B’Tselem said on Monday.

The group said the report was based on interviews with 55 Palestinians from Gaza, the West Bank and Israel, who were detained in Israeli prisons since the Oct. 7 attack on Israel that set off the war, most of them without being tried.

“The testimonies clearly indicate a systematic, institutional policy focused on the continual abuse and torture of all Palestinian prisoners held by Israel,” the report said.

The report was issued days after the Israeli military detained nine soldiers accused of severe abuse of a prisoner in a military facility in the Negev desert. According to Israeli press reports, the soldiers are accused of sexually abusing a member of an elite Hamas unit.

Revealed: US neo-Nazi terror group aims to revive activities ahead of election | The far right | The Guardian

While far-right extremists from all corners of the internet are targeting vice-president Kamala Harris as she takes the reins of the Democratic ticket, one of the longer standing US-based neo-Nazi terror groups is also attempting to continue its covert activities as the presidential election season begins in earnest.

Rinaldo Nazzaro, 51, a former Pentagon contractor and analyst at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) turned founder of the Base, wrote on his personal Telegram account that he’s seeking a stateside leader for his organization and is willing to pay them a salary of up to $1,200 a month.

The Russia-based leader, who is the subject of an FBI investigation and once called a Department of Justice “matter” by a US government official, is not known to have set foot in the US in years. With the recent surge in racially motivated riots in the United Kingdom, authorities across the west have become increasingly concerned with Russian sponsorship of far-right extremists.
