Long ago there used to be a writer calling herself "Dukkha Girl." She disappeared, came back, faded again. We love DG. Where is she today? One can only imagine the fate of suburban motherhood or rural farm life with cats. Maybe, just maybe, she became a nun, forsaking the lower-life of householders for the high-life of striving full-time for the ultimate goal of nirvana. Who knows?
Help wanted. Inquire within (in the Comments)
We're sure she'll eventually be in touch to tell us. In the meantime, there's an attention-[whur] we imagine in the role, now that the original DG's been excluded. But this gal's branded a total "poser" and banned. It's got so bad, she lost her business.

The CabalNews Network: Rense.com is dissatisfied with the reportage over at CNN. What used to be a Cable News Network has become a CABAL News Network. What's a cabal?
A "cabal" is a group of people who are united in some close design, usually to promote their private views or interests in an ideology, a state, or another community such as Neo-Nazi white supremacists, often by intrigue and usually without the knowledge of those who are outside their group.
The use of this term usually carries negative connotations of political purpose, conspiracy, and secrecy [1, 2]. It can also refer to a secret plot or a clique, or it may be used as a verb (to form a cabal or secretly conspire) [1, 3].
We create the mainstream media, and we control it via governmental intel collaboration.
.
Jewish mysticism is a cabal[lah]
ETYMOLOGY: The term cabal is derived from Kabbalah (a Jewish word that has numerous spelling variations), the Jewish mystical interpretation of Hebrew scriptures (ืงַืָּืָื).
In the Jewish language (not to be confused with Yiddish), it means "received doctrine" or "tradition" [4], while in European culture (Christian Cabala, Hermetic Qabalah) it became associated with occult doctrine or a secret [5].
It came into English via the French cabale from the medieval Latin cabbala and was known early in the 17th century through usages linked to Charles II and Oliver Cromwell.
By the middle of the 17th century, it had developed further to mean some intrigue entered into by a small group and also referred to the group of people so involved, that is, a semi-secret political clique [6].
Butt smoke enema?
Accoutrements of insertion
(Wiki) The tobacco smoke enema, an insufflation of tobacco smoke into the rectum by hose and pipe, was a medical treatment employed by European physicians for a range of ailments.
The West recognized tobacco as a medicine soon after it was first imported from the "New World," and tobacco smoke was used by Western medical practitioners as a tool against cold and drowsiness.
Butt applying it by enema was a technique allegedly learned from the North American Indigenous peoples [1]. The procedure was used to treat gut pain and in attempts to resuscitate victims of near drowning.
Liquid tobacco enemas were often given to ease the symptoms of a hernia. During the early 19th century, the practice became obsolete due to poor efficacy and risk of nicotine poisoning. More
Entourage effect: The entourage effect is a hypothesis that cannabis compounds, other than the cannabinoids tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD), act synergistically with cannabinoids to modulate the overall psychoactive effects of the plant [1, 2]. The effect has also been applied in the case of magic (psilocybin) mushrooms, with other compounds besides psilocybin having been hypothesized to also contribute to the effects of the mushrooms [3].

Rolling Loud is an international hip hop music festival that has been held in North America, Asia, South America, Europe, and Australia.
Established in 2015, it is "one of the biggest festivals in the world" according to Complex, while Billboard called it "the be-all of hip-hop festivals" [2, 3].
In 2019, an estimated 210,000 people attended the event in Miami [4].
HISTORY
The festival was founded in 2015 by Matt Zingler and Tariq Cherif, who met in elementary school in Hollywood, Florida [2, 5].
Once in high school, the pair began organizing and promoting parties which "leaned heavily on a mix of Southern and Midwestern rap" [2]. They moved on to professional live music events in 2010, beginning with an after-party headlined by Rick Ross [2].
By the summer of 2013, they were hosting monthly events in Miami featuring up-and-coming artists like Travis Scott and Kendrick Lamar [6].
The pair also promoted artists from Florida's burgeoning SoundCloud rap scene under the brand name Dope Entertainment before noticing the need for a genre-specific music festival [7, 8].
The first Rolling Loud took place in Miami in February 2015 and featured artists such as... More
International Workers' Day ("May Day" to most of the world outside the U.S.): International Workers' Day, also called Labor Day in some countries [1] and often referred to as "May Day" [2, 3] is a celebration of laborers and the working classes that is promoted by the international labor movement and occurs every year on May 1st [4, 5] or the first Monday in May [6, 7].
Traditionally, May 1st is the date of the European spring festival of May Day. The International Workers Congress held in Paris in 1889 established the Second International for labor, socialist, and Marxist parties.
It adopted a resolution for a "great international demonstration" in support of working-class demands for the 8-hour day.
The date was chosen by the American Federation of Labor to commemorate a general strike in the United States, which had begun on May 1, 1886, and culminated in the Haymarket affair on May 4th.
The demonstration subsequently became a yearly event [5]. The 1904 Sixth Conference of the Second International, called on "all Social Democratic Party organizations and trade unions of all countries to demonstrate energetically on the First of May for the legal establishment of the 8-hour day, for the class demands of the proletariat, and for universal peace" [8].

(NBC Bay Area) What used to be an unofficial cannabis celebration on April 20th (four-twenty in American cannabis culture) in San Francisco has grown into a huge, city-sanctioned free event, and just about anyone one walks up to is happy to expound on what he or she loves about it.
Entheogenic use of cannabis to 'bring out the divine': Marijuana [or Chinese Ma Huang, pronounced as if it were the Spanish name Marijuana/MaryJane, from Mexico] has served as an entheogen—a chemical substance used in religious or spiritual contexts [1] to bring to the surface inner divinity—in the Indian subcontinent since the Vedic period, dating back to approximately 1500 BCE, but perhaps as far back as 2500 BCE in ancient China. It was introduced to the New World by the Spaniards in 1530-1545... More
KROQ's Klein.Ally.Show, the Number 1 morning radio show in Los Angeles, takes pot-infused gummies in a cautionary tale to tokers
NBC News, Bay Area, April 25, 2023; Eds., Wisdom Quarterly
Throw on some Avenged Sevenfold or Aqua — because today, March 9, is National Barbie Day! In 1959, an 11-inch-tall German bombshell [adult toy Kewpie doll named Bild-Lilli*] made her debut at the American International Toy Fair in New York.
Designed by Ruth Handler, the co-founder of Mattel Inc., Barbie was created to allow girls to imagine what their lives could be like in the [feminist] future.
She’s had a slew of careers, from registered nurse to astronaut. And she’s done it all with a companion, usually a fembot boytoy called Ken.
Barbie was a single lady for all of two years. But in 1961, overwhelming demand caused Handler to release a boyfriend for her — a softly gendered Ken boy.
Jane Goodall Barbie and Bobo
(The verdict’s out if he’s ever going to put a ring on it so we can have a Matrimonial White Wedding Barbie and a dangerous Divorced Barbie with seething contempt for the patriarch who put her on the path to homemaker when she was doing so well in the world).
On National Barbie Day, pink-blooded Americans celebrate all things Barbie.
History of National Barbie Day
Hey, White Grrl, need some hairspray?
Barbie is simply iconic. There is nothing that comes close to the spectrum of emotions that are conjured by the girl doll. She is perceived uniquely, of course, by every individual who has ever played with her or owned a clone of her as a slave owner might possess a coveted piece of plastic to sell later for profit. What are we teaching kids?
Yah, I vuz made 4 German men
Barbie was inspired by Lilli, a German adult doll, which had sexy and misogynistic attributes and had a more “adult” appeal.
From this brutish idea, the co-founder of Mattel toy company Ruth Handler became inspired to create a doll who was a grown woman.
Mexican Conquest Barbie
It had been in 1956, while on vacation with her family, that Handler first came across the adult sex symbol Lilli doll. She noticed how enamored her 15-year-old daughter Barbara (Babs, Barb, Barbie) was.
Before the creation of capitalist bonanza Barbie, most dolls were either infantilized babies or children. Handler’s vision was to create a doll that had a grown female’s anatomy without all the naughty bits children have been searching for ever since under her and Ken's cute outfits. More

(Jimmy Kimmel Live) Sept. 23, 2025: Jimmy Kimmel returns to the air and talks about all of the people who have reached out over the last six days including fellow late night talk show hosts, fans of the show, and those who don’t support what he believes but support his right to share those beliefs anyway, and he expresses that it was never his intention to make light of the murder of a young man...
I'll release Epstein Client List (if they remove me)
How important it is to live in a country that allows us to have a show like this, the Chairman of the FCC Brendan Carr telling an American company that “We can do this the easy way or the hard way,” Trump saying he has no talent and no ratings, being fortunate to work at a company that has allowed us to do the show we want to do for almost 23 years, not agreeing with the decision to have our show pulled off the air last Wednesday, Trump making it very clear he wants to see Jimmy and other late night hosts fired, and solidarity from the right, left and those in the middle. Then Jimmy talks to the new FCC Chairman (Robert De Niro), and gets into Trump’s day addressing the United Nations, the escalator breaking, having trouble with the teleprompter, and the headache he’s creating with his buddy RFK over Tylenol. Jimmy Kimmel is Back!#Kimmel
Fortunate to grow up in Los Angeles, we have known and listened to Kimmel for more than 30 years. How? Long before he became famous, he lived in Las Vegas and wanted to be in radio. So he traveled to Hollywood and got a job as a comedian and sports reporter on the Kevin & Bean Show(K&B on KROQ FM), the morning zoo of the foremost alt rock station in the area. KROQ had a direct line to MTV with its DJs who became VJs and Loveline and determining hit songs.
KROQ's Kevin Ryder made Kimmel famous.
Soon after Jimmy arrived -- doing his many funny characters which he could never do now, Gay James, Mo the Angry Midget, Karl Malone in Blackface, and so on -- he met a nobody named Adam Corolla. Jimmy accepted a challenge to box someone and was taking it lightly. Corolla was an impoverished construction worker/carpenter, driving his rundown truck through the Valley, listening to K&B. He heard about the boxing match and decided to take his very green comedic chops, which he was working on at Groundlings Improv, down to the station to help Jimmy.
THE STRANGEST THING
Nearly no one but us is likely to remember the paranormal aspect of Jimmy Kimmel's career success from early KROQ days.
Sadly, our memory is imperfect as to the exact details. In those days there was another famous friend of Kimmel and Corolla named Ralph Garman (a voice comic long since forgotten to the oblivion of his own paywall podcast no one cared about and Corolla's former apartment roommate). Whatever might be said about Bean Baxter and Kevin Ryder, they were intensely interested in the paranormal. They played this off with jokes, gags, and James Randi-style skepticism. K&B used all of these as covers to repeatedly invite psychics, hypnotic past life regressionists, mystics, and others onto the show. They made so much fun of these real-life people that one had to wonder why they kept inviting them back. K&B ran a lazy show, preferring others to be funny and do most of the comedic work. They just picked great people to come on and do it.
Future Cmdr. Ralph Garman
Therefore, when it came time to be hypnotized or progressed (future life progression), they put in Jimmy and Ralph and Beer Mug rather than participating directly themselves. This was very shocking because they all clowned around and acted like nonbelievers, doubters, and jesters -- given our very scientific and secular society and city. That let them continue to be funny, whether the channels or visionaries they brought on were crazy or not, such as our favorite guest Bridget Nielsen.
Bridg-ET (the bridge between ETs and humans as a hybrid mom, bridgetnielsen.com) and an old couple who channeled The Beatles from heaven to bring NEW Beatles' music to the world. The point: It turned out that both Jimmy Kimmel and Ralph Garman, according to their progressions, will be very important in the future history of the human plane.
What they described seeing and who they described being was stunning, making one wonder how it was that these apparent goofs were actually not on radio in one of the world's largest radio markets by accident. Kimmel becomes important when we are a space-traveling species, which has already happened.
Best friend Adam Corolla
Garman is a future ruler who sends many people off to war to die. The KARMA to fill these stations is uncommon. Kimmel was an atheistic-sounding Italian (Roman) Catholic. Did the personal experience under hypnosis make him a believer in rebirth? Or in keeping with his Jewish girlfriend Sarah and other secular Jewish friends in the Valley, did he just say "pshaw" and dismiss it all as parapsychological mumbo jumbo for the radio?
It was kismet and karma combined. They fell in love with each other, and Kimmel got Corolla a job on the show as Mister Birchum, the angry high school woodshop teacher. He was hilarious, so much so that he promoted up and up, until Comedy Central gave the duo a shot to create something. They came up with The Man Show. Corolla became the movie reviewer for K&B for movies he never saw. He was doing comedy in between construction jobs, as many future-famous friends partied in the Valley in a strange amalgamation of Hollywood talent:
LA is a smoggy kitchen of half-baked ideas, with just a few hills between the dusty Valley and shiny Hollywood. It all comes around because this morning (Sept. 24, 2025), Kevin Ryder (the K in K&B) is back on KROQ FM and the old K&B Show is now Klein . Ally . Show.
Kevin Klein and Ally Johnson have been following the Kimmel saga, as has Kevin Ryder, who was personally on hand at the historic Hollywood Masonic Lodge on Hollywood Blvd., where Jimmy Kimmel Live! is taped. He cried more than Kimmel did and reported what happened inside as Kimmel received a 7-minute standing ovation as soon as he stepped out in front of the studio audience. He called in to talk about it:
The censorship nightmare ends. Will Kimmel reign it in and stop raking the Orange One over the coals nightly? Will he apologize? Will he pay off [Karen] Kirk during her time of grieving with such hateful eyes as she pays beautiful lip service to evangelical Christian ideals? Probably. Disney-owned ABC is bringing him back, having been in negotiations since this all happened. What will Nexstar and Sinclair, cogs in the Network with the power to pre-empt the show on their stations, have to say about it? What will Trump's counter-reaction be? Satire to be made a felony for making people question authority.
Sinclair will refuse to air show, will pre-empt it with a dull news program: DC, Seattle, St. Louis, Columbus (Ohio), Las Vegas, Baltimore, and others (for a total of 38 nationally) will ban it from the air. Viewers will have to watch it on YouTube and in funny clips the next day
Jimmy Kimmel to RETURN: ABC ends suspension starting Tuesday, Sept. 23, 2025
Brian Steinberg, Variety, Sept. 22, 2025
Take that, Old Poopy Drawers!
Jimmy Kimmel will have more to say on late-night TV. Disney and ABC will bring the comedian back to its schedule starting Tuesday night.
“Last Wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country.
It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive,” the company said in a statement. “We have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday.”
Disney’s decision to bench one of its signature [comedic] personalities came after two major station owners, Nexstar Media and Sinclair, said they would pre-empt his program following a Kimmel monologue last Monday during which he offered remarks tied to the death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
Hollywood wields more power than Mar-a-Lago?
And yet, after Kimmel was taken off the air, Disney faced protest from the creative community. On Monday, 400 celebrities — including people like Martin Short and Tom Hanks, who have created memorable characters for Disney in the recent past — signed a letter from the American Civil Liberties Union decrying the blow the maneuver delivered to free speech in America.
The decision to bring Kimmel back was approved by Bob Iger, Disney’s CEO, and Dana Walden, co-chair of Disney Entertainment, according to a person familiar with the matter.
The executives acted based on what was best for the company, this person said, and not on external factors. Indeed, it remains unclear if all ABC affiliates will air Kimmel’s program.
Spokespersons for Nexstar and Sinclair could not be reached for immediate comment. More
ABC suspends ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ over [need to appease Trump's FCC to get approval of a merger to consolidate more power in one corporation using] Charlie Kirk comments [as a pretext]
(TODAY) Sept 18, 2025: ABC announces that “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” has been suspended “indefinitely” after the late-night host made comments on Monday about the shooting of Charlie Kirk. While many conservatives, including Pres. Don Trump, are applauding the move, Democrats and free-speech advocates are condemning it as a form of censorship. NBC’s Liz Kreutz reports for TODAY. #ABC #donaldtrump #FCC
Now as a result of all this censorship hoopla and corporate chaos, Kimmel's ratings are sure to skyrocket for his return Tuesday. Will he be able to hold onto them though?
