It's been a weird 2 weeks. Healing like an almost normal person? Scars? Sleepless nights? Okay, only one of those is pretty standard for LR, but you get it.

Even when he'd gotten a new phone, Livio hadn't been able to pick up the phone to text anyone, aside from maybe a 'thanks, I'm alive' to Legato.

But eventually, Nick n Vash will get a food delivery, something savory and filling, with a note attached.

'You're just lucky I didn't cook this.

-- L'

There are a lot of people that he needs to talk to. It's kind of been two weeks of radio silence from him outside of letting the managers at the café know that he got pretty fucked up and won't be around for a bit but to call or message him if needed. He's been spending a lot of time sleeping or sitting out on the back porch or in the garden soaking up the sunlight.

Livio's one of those people he desperately needs to talk to. Wolfwood doesn't know if he died, too— he didn't see his body and he couldn't contact him. All he saw was blood. He still remembers his shaky voice, talking to that shadowy version of himself on the other end of the line; he still remembers the resounding gunshot and the line going dead.

Of course he knows Livio's still around, but they're clearly... avoiding each other.

...

Actually, if Wolfwood could leave the damn house, he'd probably be at Livio's doorstep by now.

Especially when the delivery comes. Wolfwood gets to the door first and the delivery driver lets out a startled squeak when she has to look way up at him. He must look quite a sight, stitched up and bruised all over his ribs. She hands the bag over and scurries off before he can say a word.

It smells good, whatever it is. Wolfwood shuffles to the kitchen to place the bag on the kitchen island and pull the container out of it. It's still hot. He picks up the note. The handwriting's more than familiar.

Relief.

So Livio doesn't fucking hate him. Good. Maybe this'll open up a way for him to reach out, too.

For now, he'll call Vash into the room to share this meal with him.

LUCY IN THE METAVERSE!

Lucy on Lucille / Lucille on Lucy

Lucille Ball created the Lucy character to live in a real world; a world also populated by movies stars, one of whom was film and radio performer Lucille Ball! On rare occassion, the Lucy character dared to acknowledge the existence of her famous portrayer giving viewers a rare visit to the metaverse. Lucille believed that comedy was better if it stayed close to the truth. Her sitcoms are full of references to her own life and the lives of those around her - but that’s not enough to be Meta! Here are some moments that transcend mere references and become self-referential!

In 1946, Lucille Ball (the actress) met Lucille Ball (the filly), courtesy of jockey Johnny Longden. This meeting no doubt influenced Longden’s playing himself in “Lucy and The Loving Cup” (1957).

~ META MAGAZINES ~

Lucille Ball was on the cover of a local edition of TV Guide (January 25, 1952), which was casually left on the coffee table during “Breaking the Lease” (1952).

In “Ricky’s Life Story” (1953), the photo of Lucy ("That's a fine picture of my left arm!") holding Little Ricky, may actually be of Lucille Ball because the monogram on the blouse are the initials 'LB' - although it could be 'LR' as the lower part of the 'B' is blocked by the baby!. It could also be another person wearing Lucy’s blouse. Very meta!

When Look turned up in “Lucy Gets Ricky on the Radio” (1952), the June 3, 1952, issue actually had Lucille Ball on the cover!

Look was part of a 1952 flashback intro during Lucy’s pregnancy. Vivian Vance has her hand over Ball’s photo. Inside is an article by Desi Arnaz about his wife.

Another ‘meta’ magazine appearance was in “Ricky Has Labor Pains” (1953) where a pregnant Lucy is reading the January 1953 McCall's (January 1953), which clearly has a cover that say “Why I Love Lucy” by Desi Arnaz!

~ META COSTUMES ~

Desi Arnaz was such a golf nut that he built a second home on the 17th fairway of the Thunderbird Golf Club in Rancho Mirage, California. Ricky Ricardo (an East Coast golfer) wore the Thunderbird insignia on his cap in “The Golf Game” (1954). Desi ad-libs a verbal mention of the club at the start of “The Charm School” (S3;E15) earlier in 1954.

RICKY: “You know, the whole membership of the Thunderbird Club was around the 18th hole. All I had to do was make this measly two-foot putt to win, and I missed it!”

In “Lucy and Aladdin’s Lamp” (1971), Lucy Ricardo’s trademark blue polka dot dress turns up at Lucy Carter’s garage sale! The dress is a visual Easter Egg but is never talked about.

~ META MUSIC ~

For “Lucy’s Last Birthday” (1953), Ricky’s birthday present to Lucy is a song called “I Love Lucy.” In reality, viewers had been listening to the Eliot Daniel theme song for nearly two years, but the previously unheard lyrics by Harold Adamson were new.

In “Job Switching” (1952), nine weeks before it was announced that Lucy Ricardo would have a baby, Ricky is heard idly whistling “There’s A Brand New Baby in Our House,” a song that Desi Arnaz wrote several years earlier for the birth of his daughter. When Ethel asks Ricky if he wrote the song, he replies that he wrote it for Lucy. But since Lucie and Lucy are pronounced the same, Desi may be talking about his daughter!

A few weeks later, in “Sales Resistance” (1953), Ricky sings the song in full, recording it on a reel to reel tape recorder in his living room. Coincidentally, the song was released on the B side of the “I Love Lucy” theme song.

~ META CASTING ~

In “Don Juan is Shelved” (1955) Lucy thinks real-life Hollywood producer Dore Schary is an out-of-work actor so she hires him to pretend to be... Dore Schary! Schary was supposed to play himself in the episode, but backed out at the last minute and the role was recast with Phil Ober, marring the mega meta nature of the episode. An added layer of meta was added by casting Ober, who was married to Vivian Vance and was - at times - an “out-of-work actor.”

Frank Nelson memorably played the exasperated train conductor dealing with Lucy Ricardo in “The Great Train Robbery” (1955), then reprised the role to deal with Lucy Carmichael when “Lucy Visits the White House” (1963). Since the conductor was never given a character name - it is possible he exists in both metaverses!

William Frawley made his last scripted television appearance in “Lucy and the Countess Have a Horse Guest” (1965) as a horse trainer. When he is out of earshot, Lucy Carmichael turns the Countess (Ann Sothern) and says:

LUCY: “You know, he reminds me of someone I used to know.”

Frawley spent nine years playing Fred Mertz on “I Love Lucy.”

“Lucy The Gun Moll” (1966) is essentially a parody of Desilu’s crime drama “The Untouchables.” The meta madness is that the original actors (Robert Stack, Bruce Gordon, Steve London, and Walter Winchell) were cast, but the character names were changed to protect the innocent! Lucy, as chanteuse Rusty Martin, even mentions the series title to pound the satire home.

At the end of “Lucy Visits Jack Benny” (1974), the world’s most famous bus driver Ralph Kramden makes a wordless appearance. Jackie Gleason played the character on his variety show and the sitcom “The Honeymooners”, airing simultaneously with “I Love Lucy.” Ball and Gleason collaborated on several specials. The meta world that contains Lucy Carter, Ralph also exists!

~ META REAL ESTATE ~

In “The Tour” (1956), the Beverly Hills home of Richard Widmark actually is the home of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. A second unit film crew was sent to Roxbury Drive residence to film establishing shots of Lucy and Ethel walking up to the home. The actors, however, are not Lucille Ball and Vivian Vance, but identically dressed doubles!

When “Lucy Sues Mooney” (1967) with the help of her wily lawyer Wally Wiley (Jack Carter), she gives her address as 780 Gower Street. This was the address of the Desilu Studios Production Offices. An extra layer of meta is added because Carter was best man at Ball’s wedding to Gary Morton. Lucy Carmichael also gives this as her address in “Lucy The Babysitter” (1967).

~ META MENTIONS ~

In “Baby Pictures” (1953) Charlie Appleby tries to impress the Ricardos about his TV station’s catalog of films:

CHARLIE: “We’ve got the newest moving pictures in town. I bought a block of films yesterday, and I want to tell you that they’re going to make television stars out of some of the actors. Now, just remember their names: Conway Tearle and Mabel Normand.”

Conway Tearle’s career bounced between Broadway and Hollywood. One of his last starring roles was in Hey Diddle Diddle, a play that premiered in 1937 featuring a 26 year-old Lucille Ball. The play was scheduled to open on Broadway, but closed after one week in Washington DC due to Tearle’s declining health. Had it succeeded, Ball’s career trajectory might have been very different!

In 1967, TV producer and director Sheldon Leonard (who actually worked at Desilu), arranged to film a bank robbery at Mr. Mooney’s bank - but keeps it a secret from Lucy, naturally. The end of the episode turns very meta when Leonard says:

“I suddenly got this idea for a new television series. It would be about this kooky red headed girl. She works in a bank and she gets into all sorts of impossible situations and… ...forget it. Nobody would ever believe it!”

A guest appearance by Van Johnson in “Guess Who Owes Lucy $23.50?” (1968) is used as an opportunity to promote their recently released film Yours Mine and Ours, where Lucy plays the wife of Henry Fonda and Johnson their best friend.

VAN JOHNSON: “I loved working with that kooky redhead.” LUCY CARTER: “Personally, I thought she was much too young for Henry Fonda.”

During Lucille Ball’s third appearance on “The Carol Burnett Show” (1969) two flight attendants Finster (Carol) and Agnes (Lucille Ball) compete for a best employee award. They encounter a suspicious passenger (Harvey Korman) with a Fidel Castro-like beard, cigars tucked in his breast pocket, and a Spanish accent.

HOOPER (Lucy):“Where are you from, sir? Havana?” PASSENGER (Korman): (alarmed) “Havana? What makes you think I’m from Havana?” HOOPER (Lucy):“Well, if it’s one thing I know, it’s a Cuban accent.”

This meta moment relies on the audience knowing that Lucille Ball had been married to Desi Arnaz, a Cuban immigrant, as was his sitcom spouse, Ricky Ricardo. In the late 1960′s hijacking planes to Cuba was headline news ripe for satire.

When “Lucy Competes With Carol Burnett” (1970), she dresses like a charwoman identical to the one created by Burnett for “The Carol Burnett Show.” When Carol Krausmeyer (disguised as a hippie reporter) asks how Lucy Carter thought up such a crazy outfit.

LUCY: “From some goofy dame on TV.” CAROL: “Well, she must be some kind of nut!”

~ THE DESILU METAVERSE ~

Lucy Ricardo met Danny Williams (Danny Thomas) on a cross-over episode of “The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour”;

Danny Williams drives through Mayberry and meets Sheriff Andy Taylor, which spawns “The Andy Griffith Show”;

“The Andy Griffith Show” is where the Gomer Pyle (Jim Nabors) character began before getting his own show. “Gomer Pyle USMC”;

Gomer Pyle turns up on “The Lucy Show,” although here she is Lucy Carmichael, not Lucy Ricardo (even though both women share the maiden name McGillacuddy).

The outcome is that Lucy Ricardo and Lucy Carmichael exist in the same (TV) Metaverse!

~ METAGRAPHS ~

In “Lucy The Gun Moll” (1966) Rusty Martin’s (aka Lucy) dressing room is decorated with black and white photographs of Lucille Ball performing. Behind Robert Stack is a photo of Ball singing “Jitterbug Bite” in the 1940 film Dance, Girl, Dance. She met Desi Arnaz while making this movie. It was filmed at RKO, the studio that became Desilu.

When Kim decorates her room with posters of classic film stars in “Lucy and the Andrews Sisters” (1969), Lucy Carter finds a poster of Lucille Ball! She looks at it thoughtfully, is about to put it on the wall, and then says “Meh” and puts it down.

When “Lucy Carter Meets Lucille Ball” (1974), the walls of Ball’s dressing room are covered with photos from the star’s real life, including one of her mother Dede.

The black and white photo next to the door is from “The Lucy Show” episode “Lucy and Chris’s New Year’s Eve Party” (1962) where Lucy Carmichael did a silent movie sketch as Charlie Chaplin. So Lucille Ball is playing Lucy Carmichael who is playing Charlie Chaplin!

In 1975′s Lucille Ball special with Dean Martin, “Lucy Gets Lucky”, Lucy Collins admires a photo of Lucille Ball while walking through the Las Vegas MGM Grand Hotel’s Hollywood Hall of Fame.

~ META MASTERPIECE ~

The ultimate visit to the Metaverse is the “Here’s Lucy” episode “Lucy Carter Meets Lucille Ball” (1974), in which Lucy, Kim, and Cynthia (Carole Cook) enter a Lucille Ball look-alike contest.

With the assistance of split screens and doubles (the best technology available at the time, Ball played both roles - and was even billed accordingly!

Lucy, Cynthia, and Kim both don caftans and dark wigs to emulate Ball’s look in her upcoming film Mame, although the film is never directly mentioned. Kim says that a lot of her friends think she looks like Lucille Ball.

LUCY: “That's ridiculous. She's old enough to be your mother!”

And the winner is...

...Lucy, naturally!

new ask game send me a 🌻 and ill just tell you whatever the fuck i want

Nintendo is a bunch of pussies and deserved to be dragged for the fact they won't bring back the F-Zero franchise. Like, they say 'oh its hard to restore the brand when so many people like Mario Kart' but bro...I can think of so many ways to revive this shit from small to large. Here's a EASY way to garner attention to F-Zero. Listen closely--

PORT F-ZERO GX TO THE SWITCH

Bro, so many people are learning of old games like Banjo Kazooie just through virtual console. HELL THEY PORTED PIKMIN 1 AND 2 FOR THE PIKMIN 4 GAME!!!! There's no reason to do Capt. Falcon dirty like this.

There's a ton of people that just have shelves of racing games and it's not all just fucking Mario Kart (my boyfriend has so many of them I can't even count bro) so reviving F-Zerio wouldn't be so hard ESPECIALLY since it plays SO MUCH DIFFERENT from Mario Kart. Instead of relying solely on stats and luck with items and some skill, F-zero will force you to learn the track, carefully select a character and have them adapt to a cup or have a certain character for whatever cup you choose and you gotta rely on your wit and split second choices because if your ass don't know the lay out????? Youre flying the fuck off and DYING you will see your character crash and BURN violently and that goes hard as fuck. Speed is THE game here; your memory of the track gotta be second nature to guide you as you speed through that mfer.

And to add on the aesthetics of being far future with comic book esque heroes, villians, weirdos, aliens, assassians, AND LITERAL CAR SATAN is metal as FUCK. If you don't think that goes hard pls exit and head over to Weenie Hut Jrs.

But since it was developed by old Sega and Activision before they lost their competitive nerve we will probably never get anything like it again...(Or another good Monkey Ball, Space Channel 5, Jet Set Radio, etc etc...)

TD;LR: Nintendo is cowards bring back F-Zero I'm sorry Mario Kart is a classic but NOTHING makes your blood pump like a clutch ass race in F-Zero GX.

#ooc #bro I paid $72 for a new copy of this on the gamecube #my oldest sister got it for $20 before influencers decided to artifically hike up the price of old games >:(

Lindenhurst.

I lived in Brentwood for much of my timeline; mostly at my childhood home and later moved down the road not too far away post-Stony Brook. The latter move was a result of me refusing to move down to Myrtle Beach with my parents. I never had any desire to leave New York State and I never had enough of visiting New York City. Around the time, the economy plundered. I went broke and applied for the first job opportunity that was open in order to survive. I had no idea that place would ruin me. For most of the time at the second Brentwood residency, I wasn’t feeling 100% because of constant targeting of management and their crony co-workers. It took me a while to get back on track and eventually whatever I lost I gained back and more. I discovered a few key artists that made me see the light. I got back into broadcasting with a new radio show, and I finally re-united with Cath- whom I haven’t seen in a few years due to her addiction and sordid history.

But, some things turn sour that’s not your fault. Ma’ commits suicide and your dad ends up moving back in with you. You end up working two jobs without a day-off in near vicinity. Cath-’s #1 dies of a heroin overdose and she cuts off all ties from you with absolutely no reason given. Your unemployed gamer landlord doesn’t put in his fair share of rent and utilities, so you end up with no internet and you’re literally freezing because there’s no running heat or hot water for all of winter. Of all the major events going on, that final one had my bro- take notice. He was living with his lady and their first-born in Lindenhurst. He felt so bad learning I was living with no utilities that he not only offered me to move in with him to Lindenhurst but also into a new house. I shouldn’t say ‘offered’. He told me so. Sure. I wasn’t complaining.

I had about a week to pack up all the loose ends and was told to take out all my records, discs, cassettes, VHS tapes, and DVDs from the drawers and throw them in giant bins. Him and his friends managed to lift all the furniture up out of the old Brentwood residency and into the new one in Lindenhurst. It was my duty to take some of the smaller boxes of personals to stuff in the trunk, back seat, and passengers' seat of my car.

I’d be leaving behind the un-mopped dingy floors, the eventual basement floods, and the other disused soot-ridden rooms which the former random inhabitants lived in. One ‘neighbor’ who lived in the adjacent room from me came home on the weekends totally wasted that he collapsed face first on the floor as soon as he walked in. He almost caused a house fire by forgetting the bag of popcorn he was cooking in the microwave. And the best one – get ready for this - was when a fully nude lady almost walked into my room. It was his prostitute looking for him. Jesus Fucking Christ.

I went to work and was told by my bro- that everything would be moved in the same day, so just come to the new house in Lindenhurst. I had no idea how good I had it. My new room was up on the second floor and triple the size of my previous one. Carpeted floors. Windows that faced the peeking sun. Low-flying passenger jets. A wider, larger closet space, and a pair of smaller doors revealing an attic for storage. Plus, being in Lindenhurst meant that three record stores were in near vicinity: West Babylon’s Looney Tunes, Amityville’s High Fidelity, and Massapequa’s Infinity Records. Lindenhurst had quickly become a favorite place to live in.

I arrived from work on a sunny 70* Sunday. June 1st to be exact. Most of what I kept from my childhood home and the previous residency came with me to Lindenhurst such as a gumball machine, my gramma’s Lafayette LR-810 receiver, and a massive Philips 24” CRT TV that would paralyze anyone attempting to lift it. All of it was there and a few boxes of my audio / video library. I wasn’t interested in unpacking. Not just yet. Our wi-fi network was set-up. That was the most important thing to me. I haven’t had consistent wi-fi in six months. The first thing I looked up was to see how Cath- was doing despite her taking everything we had and throwing out the trash as if it was nothing. Good news: she’s started a new life solo in Arizona and has been clean for one month.

The first finds to mark my new stay in Lindenhurst? Someone had posted Pharmakon’s “Xia Xinfeng” where her murderous screams break through a fully-running frigidly cold hum. I was sold instantly. The vinyl-finds groups lead me to Mass Production and Peter Brown; soul-jazz and pop respectively. I stuck with the L.I.E.S. label after fully enjoying Ron Morelli’s solos for a quite a while, all released through Dominick Fernow’s Hospital Productions. His label compilation, Music For Shut-Ins, supplied Samantha’s Vacation, Svengalisghost, and Legowelt. Omar Souleyman started gaining a name for himself in the states. Experiencing “Kell Il Banat Inkhatban (All The Girls Are Engaged)“ is truly something. I never heard keyboards go that crazy. Then we have WUSB’s own Alice, dee-jay of Nightmare Aquarium. Without her, I wouldn’t have known who Ariel Pink and William Onyeabor were. I credit her for introducing me to the magically sublime Black Marble.

Nary did I have a day off during that Summer I moved in. I could only count four…maybe six total. The electronics place finally gave me full time, double-dealing between that and part-time at the Italian market. The only stand-out moment I had during the hotter months was getting lost somewhere in the sunny woodsy section of Mastic looking for Nicole’s residency which I did find an hour late. Nowadays, one listen to A Different Arrangement instantly takes me back to those June Sundays.

Autumn came. The days were getting cooler and darker. Driving past Argyle Pond coming home from work became a staple memory with synthwave vibes of “Fright Night” from Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti forever attached to it. Hospital Productions gave me another artist to savor in the Italian-based Ninos Du Brasil with their dying-hot exotic techno sounds. Suicideyear would be distinct to the season and to Lindenhurst alone which makes their sound personal in my book. Another neighborhood memory, Dual Action’s “NC-17 Drive In”, is forever intertwined to the Autumn soul. Our WUSB hip-hop dee-jay Dr. Ceus played me SpaceGhostPurrp’s “Mystical Maze” adding another bookmark in this asterisk time. Mono/Poly’s “Alpha Omega”, Lussuria’s “Mondo Narcotico” and “Keys To Unlock Paradise (Roman Showers)” from American Babylon, Function & Vatican Shadow’s Games Have Rules, the obscure Axxa/Abraxas’ “Waiting Daze”, and selections from The Bug’s Angels & Devils left their imprints on another feel-good season at Lindenhurst.

Before I knew it, my streak of 83 straight days of work was finally broken a few days before Thanksgiving. I came to visit the market for my hours to see that I was written out of the grid. Week after week it became a normal occurrence. I’ve been giving them my other hours in time without fail but now no more results. No discussion, no rhyme or reason why. I was let go without any notice. It was a blessing, however. A soft end to six years of non-stop belittling, boys-club behavior, and endless soul-torturing has finally been put down to die.

Winter was where things started to get fucked for discoveries; like the ‘parenthesis’ in an equation. My ex- Yenny is leaving for Lima and she’s asked me to house-sit for her in Hauppauge. A two-week stay meant all music discoveries default there. A residency inside a residency. Before and after, XXYYXX’s only full-length and two finds from the Ze label Xmas Record, Suicide’s “Hey Lord” and Alan Vega’s “No More Christmas Blues” are embedded in those frosty, chilly Winter days back in Lindy-. The latter two would be put on pause as I walked a couple of blocks to the bagel place for a heavy baked breaded breakfast.

Then came a March announcement from my bro-: we’re moving to Ronkonkoma. This was unexpected. He was excited to start a new point in his life. His lady was expecting their second child and wanted something even nicer than what we have. There was no issue with where we lived. I had none and truly wanted to stay longer. But, what my bro- was selling us on that we’d upgrade from the slightly crowded residential streets, noise-polluting airplanes, and highways across every direction for a gentler, calmer, at-peace setting of historical context, well-manicured lawns, trails, veteran’s parks, and a 4.5 square-mile scenic lake. To me, Ronkonkoma was Record Stop on Portion Road, punk luminary Jimi LaLumia’s Record Connection on Hawkins Road, and what used to be Lakeside’s bar where I’d go for some small-scale but breakout-violent local hardcore shows. Other than LaLumia, none are still standing. It’s a new decade now; far away from the community-college shows and record-buying jaunts from the Stony Brook era. We had up until May 1st to get everything together. The Lindenhurst finds dwindled down to nothing, and all the discoveries found that Spring ended up at the current residency we’re at now. It was time to say goodbye to my old furniture: the twin-sized bed, the old bookshelves, dressers, drawers, the gumball machine, and the Lafayette that was losing its functionality. We left all the small stuff in front of the gate and left the furniture behind. Goodbye Lindenhurst and hello Ronkonkoma.

**********

I can tell you that my very first experience in the new neighborhood was delightful and exotic. We were only a few blocks away from the new house. My dad had me pull up to our neighborhood 7-11 for his daily coffee. I grab a pack of Hostess chocolate cupcakes and behind the counter I see the perfect ginger. Bright long copper hair, brown eyes, freckles, and all of pale skin. Jackpot. She was a sight to be seen.

There was a line of five people in front of us with two registers open. Dad was more than ready to sip his coffee but was getting restless as the scalding hot was wearing off. Lucky for me, the young Indian kid took care of him. I put my Hostess on the counter for the ginger to ring up. She was quiet, expressionless. Tired, bored, introverted? Who knows. Who cares. She made quick work of my purchase and I was two more cupcakes happier. The day was off to a great start. I didn’t believe people like her existed.

She was my very first memory at the new neighborhood. I still remember her to this very day. There’s some faces you never forget.

Could you describe what dissociating means for you? Like how do you feel lr think or not when you are dissociating?

ur second question slightly confuses me haha but let's see..ill give u an example cuz that might be easier to understand haha. So I was driving home from work they other day and something on the radio triggered me to a past rape (which then just kinda makes me spiral down a previous abuse tunnel) and I immediately felt disconnected from my body. Almost like my mind is trying to escape? And then I just feel like I'm drifting and nothing is real for a min? (Sometimes dissociating for me starts with flashbacks but not always.. just depends...in this instance it did)

It's a little hard for me when that happens while driving bc at that point my body is just on auto pilot and im driving without really paying attention to the fact that im driving? Eventually I snap back tho but I'm still glad driving is such an automatic task for me haha. But yea thats basically what dissociating is like for me, I'm sorry if that doesn't make much sense but it's hard for me to explain haha

#tank u for asking tho🥺#answered

Le président absolu

Que vous votiez Ensemble, LR, Rassemblement national, Nupes ou Parti animaliste, ou que vous ne votiez pas, il vous faut lire le livre de Philippe Fabry Le Président absolu et le livre de Frédérique Dumas qui a eu le courage de démissionner et de témoigner.

Je vous invite à écouter ou réécouter en replay les interviews de ces deux auteurs par André Bercoff dans Bercoff dans tous ses états sur Sud Radio.

Je me limiterai dans ce texte à citer des extraits de l’excellent commentaire et de la synthèse de F. Richard et des thèmes que vous retrouverez dans Le Président absolu.

« En matière sociale et politique, la France a vu se mettre en place un ordre qui, loin d’impressionner par sa modernité, est régulièrement comparé à l’Ancien régime, entre déficit démocratique, reproduction des élites, pensée unique, panne de l’ascenseur social.

Sa constitution est celle d’un régime autoritaire, d’une monarchie républicaine qui tend de plus en plus à devenir absolue et que guette une nouvelle révolution.

En conclusion il faut instituer en France une démocratie fonctionnelle à l’instar de celle qui existe chez nos voisins. Sinon on sait ce qu’il advient des régimes autoritaires quand ils ne savent pas se réformer. » F.R.

Parmi les thèmes de l’ouvrage, la démocratie fonctionnelle, l’évolution vers un régime et une culture autoritaire, la Vème République contre la démocratie.

Jean-Loup ARNAUD

Basic Understanding of XBEE Protocol

XBEE Protocol

Hi everyone! In this blog post, I’m going to share with you some basics of XBEE protocol, a wireless communication standard that is widely used in IoT applications. XBEE protocol is based on IEEE 802.15.4 standard, which defines the physical and MAC layers of low-rate wireless personal area networks (LR-WPANs). XBEE protocol enables devices to communicate with each other over a range of up to 100 meters, using low-power radio signals. XBEE protocol also supports mesh networking, which means that devices can relay messages through other devices to extend the network coverage. XBEE protocol is ideal for applications that require reliable and secure data transmission, such as remote sensing, home automation, smart metering, and more. In this blog post, I will explain how XBEE protocol works, what are its advantages and disadvantages, and how you can use it in your own projects. Let’s get started!

If you are interested to understand more about the XBEE Protocol, then you can go through the PiEmbSysTech XBEE Protocol Tutorial Blog. If you have any questions or query, that you need to get answer or you have any idea to share it with the community, you can use Piest Forum.

You'll also find a 32" LED TV in the bedroom, plus an exterior LED TV. Since there is an exterior kitchen, you may just find yourselves outdoors all day if the weather is nice! If you plan to camp for longer periods of time or you've decided to go full-time, the stackable washer and dryer prep will come in handy, along with the added storage space provided by the linen/pantry, the bedroom wardrobe, and the exterior pass-through.

Each Mirada Class A gas motorhome by Coachmen is constructed with a crowned, laminated fiberglass roof with Azdel Superlite composite for added durability, along with high gloss "Oyster" gelcoat sidewalls. There is a 7.3L V8 engine on a Ford F53 chassis for power you can feel, and a 10" touch screen radio with AM/FM radio with Bluetooth capability. The 5.5 kW gas generator, dual coach batteries, and 100W solar panel with a controller will meet all your power needs, and the automatic leveling jacks make setting up camp a breeze. Head inside to find premium linoleum throughout, hardwood cabinet doors, kitchen tile backsplash, and solar privacy shades throughout to name a few comforts. The open road is yours for the taking in a Mirada Class A gas motorhome!
