Historical Origin of Month of June

Juno is the ancient Roman goddess of marriage and childbirth. And
the month of June is still a popular month for weddings today! As
a natural extension of marriage, Juno was also the goddess of
childbirth. Another interpretation of the origins of June" says
that the name came from the Latin juvenis, young people," who
were celebrated at this time.

Juno, in Roman religion, was the chief goddess and female
counterpart of Jupiter, similar to the relationship between the
Greek Hera and Zeus. Perhaps not surprisingly, given her role of
protector of women and children, this powerful queen of the gods
was also considered the fierce protector and special counselor of
the state and a guardian angel warning those in times of
danger.The Month of June

events that you will be taking part in?

51/1. John Palmer 00:16 Thu Jun 1/23 10 lines

Gotta go and get my emissions test (whoopee).

No vacations in June except the rest of this week.

Next big trip is the "big one" - to the U.P. (L'Anse
to be precise).

Beatiful drive up the western shore of Lake Michigan
and into the woods of Wisconsin and MI, but we'll
talk about that later.

OK, so by that definition, if the Romans were
correct, 80% of the babies would be born in
March - correct? I don't think that's true.

I am the spirit of June. Glad that my time is here.

Lets have some summertime fun!

June - the month all of the gang bangers start hanging
out on the corners and shooting themselves and others and
knife fighting. Also when they start "drifting" at 2 in
the am, 7 days per week keeping everyone up and Allentown
police say "Oh, I guess there is nothing we can do to
make it stop" because the youths are just dis affected and
bored, so they are so innocent. Our mayor is a woke who
thinks they are perfect and nothing can be their fault
at all while the tax paying people have to suffer and pay
the salary of the police that do nothing.

I just want to stay in the Adirondaks where I came back
from after the holidays. Its clean and peaceful there.

OK, so how is everyone in the Midwest dealing with
the drought? I didn't realize we had one until I saw
it on the news. Hardly any rain in May and Accuweather
doesn't show a lot of rain the whole rest of the
month.

Actually, the Chicago area got .89 inches last week,
but the city itself didn't really see any (at least
downtown).

@ChicagoScanner on Twitter had several calls to the
CFD for grass fires - one of them set a garage on fire.

Hope Siobhan is watering her garden that she planted
last week.

Nothing in MI. Genesee county had a huge
grass fire on Saturday. No houses burned,
thank God.

Oakland County has issued a red flag warning. Winds
are going to pick up and its bone dry. The air is
orange - smoke from the fires in Ontario and Quebec.

Buckle up everyone.

51/11. John Palmer 22:06 Wed Jun 7/23 2 lines

We had a bit of the smoke from the Sask and Alberta
fires last week, but nothing like NYC is getting.

51/12. Siobhan Medbhb O'Roarke 08:39 Fri Jun 9/23 3 lines

We had it pretty bad, but not as bad as NY. Will
be getting some much needed rain this weekend which
will remove the remaining smoke.

No plans to go anywhere this summer. We'll be going
for two weeks in October - first to Charlotte for a family
wedding, then several of the families will go down
to Orlando. Skipping Disney - its over-priced and
preachy-woke.

I wish corporations would stop preaching and just
concentrate on providing the goods and services
we want. Fortunatly, I think the tide is turning,
based on what happened to Bud Lite and Target.

51/15. John Palmer 18:10 Mon Jun 12/23 57 lines

Yes, hopefully.

I'm trying to put together a picture in my mind about
what the motivations of various parties could be.

Is it true that the deep state is really trying to push
actual Marxism, or do they just want to maintain their power?

I think there are the following forces:

1. Those that want to preserve their power positions in the
deep state. They are the type that want the power, prestige
and social creds that having this kind of power produces. They
wouldn't care about actual Marxism, just power.

2. The utiopian dreamers: People who think they are smarter
than others and have a "plan" to rule the world. They want to
make things better. The problem is that their definition of
"better" may be someone else's definition of "nightmare".

3. Dyed in the wool Marxist: Those that want to destroy the
current system and impose Marxism because they beleive in it.

Any of these people will produce misery. Group number 1 is the
LEAST dangerous since they would be willing to go back to the
pre-2016 status quo if possible. You know what Jordan Peterson
says about people in the #2 category. As he says, and I agree,
NO ONE can come up with one system to run everything - its too
complex and any plan they come up with is bound to have flaws.

Its best if we have a system like we have had: millions of
distributed processing engines (people) all running their
own experiments. When something proves to work, others can
adopt it, and toss away the other failures. The problem with the
#2 people is that, with absolute power, only their plan can be
tried - no one is allowed to do their own experiment. If their
Master Plan is flawed (and it most certainly is), we are all
screwed.

Need I say more about the #3 people. In the 20th century we
had a perfect experiment. The West chose free market capitalism
and freedom, the eastern bloc (USSR, China, Cambodia and Cuba)
chose Marxism. Our way elevated the human condition out of the
misery in which it had existed for most of the 350,000 years
of our species existend. The other one (Marxism), killed over
a quarter of a BILLION people and condemned BILLIONS MORE to
oppression, privation and no chance to escape that. How much
human capital was chained up during those years? As much progress
at elevating the human condition that was acheived in our
Free Market system, how much more could have been acheived if
those billions of people were free to join the distributed
experiment that we enjoyed? Could we have a cure for cancer now,
for diabetes? Could we have the clean energy (fusion, maybe)
solution the greenies always dream of. Its ironic that those
same green freaks are also Marxist/Socialists.

Something worth thinking about....

51/16. Siobhan Medbhb O'Roarke 18:22 Mon Jun 12/23 12 lines

I had not though about the billions enslaved from
that perspective. Yes, it may have been a human rights
travesty for the enslaved, but if you view everyone as
potentially in posession of abilities that could help
humanity, that is another crime that affects the whole
world.

I tend to agree about the complexity of the motivation
of the people in power. They aren't always on the same
page with everything, but I think the one thing that
binds them together is the desire to maintain power and
to get more of it.

51/17. John Palmer 21:42 Tue Jun 13/23 7 lines

We lump their motivations together at our own
peril. That they have complex and varying motivations
may be a tool we can use to divide and conquor.

Sorry, I sound like an evil schemer, but you need
to play hard sometimes. The Marcus of Queensbury
Rules only work if both side are following them.
