(Historical Void) What Sen. Kennedy said about the Palestinian refugees ("Arabs") enraged and infuriated Zionist Israel when JFK became president a few years later, so they got him back.
Marilyn Monroe (born Norma Jeane Mortenson on June 1, 1926) lived until August 4, 1962. She was a sex symbol, comedic American actress, and model.
Known for playing comic "Blonde Bombshell" characters, she became one of the most popular sex symbols of the 1950s and early 1960s, as well as an emblem of the era's sexual revolution. She was a top-billed actress for a decade, and her films grossed $200 million (equivalent to $2 billion in 2025) by her tragic death in 1962 [2].
Born in Los Angeles, Monroe spent most of her childhood in foster homes and an orphanage before marrying James Dougherty at the age of 16.
She was working in a factory during World War II when she met a photographer from the First Motion Picture Unit and began a successful pin-up modeling career, which led to short-lived film contracts with 20th Century Fox and Columbia Pictures.
After roles as a freelancer, she began a longer contract with Fox in 1951, becoming a popular actress with roles in several comedies... More
What really killed Hollywood's Bruce Lee? According to Dr. Joel D. Wallach (criticalhealthnews.com), it is unequivocal and perfectly clear that ignorance and a terrible diet killed the superstar and legendary mixed martial artist. What killed Bruce at the young age of 32? Wheatgerm (gluten) and malnourishment from gluten and other things that prematurely depleted him. Lee disciplined himself to death with a wrong idea of how to get or stay healthy. What did Bruce eat?
A very diverse diet would have been much better, avoiding extremes, fads, and health trends, but that would not have saved him (or us) from deficiencies in depleted farmland soil. That is why supplementation has become essential.
(We say this as extreme vegans interested in maintaining our great health. Dr. Wallach says real food supplements are now a must due to soil depletion, processing, and lots of bad information out there. You are responsible for your diet choices because you will be the one to bear the tragic health results of any mistake made in choosing what to put in this pure temple of a body: avoid ultra processed foods, avoid eating the dead, avoid stale/toxic substances that are not stored correctly. Eat to enjoy, eat for flavor, eat lots of fiber and foods in their natural state or processed in beneficial ways such as culturing, light fermentation, drying, preserving, seasoning... As with all things, we are ultimately responsible for ourselves and cannot give that job over to someone else as much as we would like to, for choosing to not choose for ourselves is also a choice, and believing Big Pharma, doctors, and surgeons can often be fatal. Look around. Look how healthy everyone in our society is).

June 1, 2026: Poor liar Trump claims a "peace deal" with Iran is coming any second now, but he's been saying that for months. Never mind that Zionist Israel won't stand for it. It leaves Trump floundering like an idiot, lying and lying some more to cover himself from criticism.
Jon Stewart takes a look at Trump's unimpressive track record as a negotiator, despite being the self-proclaimed best negotiator in the world, and pulls back the curtain on the president's [F]Art of the Deal (a book Trump didn't write and actually had very little to do with, as his ghostwriterTony Schwartz has told the world) as merely the art of trolling.
Plus, the Freedom 250 Concert is falling apart as more and more [now at least a half dozen] headliners pull out, and TDS News Team alum Olivia Munn stops by to offer Jon Stewart a heartfelt tribute that was definitely not meant for Stephen Colbert.
(After Skool) It's all perfect by Ram Dass (formerly Prof. Richard Alpert, Ph.D., Harvard University)
RAM DASS ("God's Servant or Slave") was born Richard Alpert on April 6, 1931 and lived until December 22, 2019) [1]. He became a hippie and is also known as Baba ["Father"] Ram Dass. He was an American spiritual teacher, guru of modern yoga [2], academic psychologist, and writer of Be Here Now, his best-selling [3] 1971 book, which has been described by as "seminal" [4, 5, 6].
With the help of his scandalous but loving sex guru Neem Karoli Baba, he helped popularize Eastern spirituality and yoga in the West [7]. He authored or co-authored a dozen more books on spirituality over the next four decades, including Grist for the Mill (1977), How Can I Help? (1985), and Polishing the Mirror (2013).
Once when he was teaching with his long hair, beard, and linen garments, someone in the crowd asked him why he dressed like a guru from India when he was really a Jew from the U.S. Without missing a beat, his retort was, "I'm only Jewish on my parents' side." Ha ha ha, exactly!
We are born into a faith, and it's usually rammed down our throats before we have a chance to do anything but swallow. And most of us won't question it. But some of us vomit it up, leave or examine, sometimes even come back to it later.
Harvard professors Dr. Timothy Leary and Dr. Richard Alpert (cool squares rounding out)
However, it seems the job and duty of any human to question it, test it, attempt to validate it, argue against it, learn from it, grow from it, reject it all together, or make peace with it. There's a world of spirituality out there to explore. We usually need a floor, a ground, by which to test things. And almost all major religions have a mystic component or sect. That's a place to start.
Parents, what am I to do but follow my heart?
But question we must, and explore we will, and find? That remains to be seen. We are on a spiritual quest. And maybe the whole rest of the world can't be. But if Americans can't, what the F are you calling yourself an "American" for? Life, liberty, and the PURSUIT of happiness is all you were promised -- and you're not even going to pursue it? Truth means nothing? Just taking sides? Just being controlled by your government, schools, and parents, the "powers that be"? Pathetic. Human up, and get searching.
Ram Dass was personally and professionally associated with hippie Dr. Timothy Leary at Harvard University in the early 1960s. Then known as Richard Alpert, he conducted research with Leary on the therapeutic effects of psychedelic drugs.
In addition, Alpert assisted Harvard Divinity School graduate student Walter Pahnke in his 1962 "Good Friday Experiment" with theology students, the first controlled, double-blind study of drugs and the mystical experience [8, 9].
While legal at the time (and not yet criminalized), their research was controversial and led to Dr. Leary's and Dr. Alpert's firing from Harvard in 1963.
In 1967, Alpert traveled to India and became "Ram Dass," a disciple of Hindu Guru Neem Karoli Baba, who gave him the name Ram Dass, meaning "Servant of Ram," but usually rendered simply as "Servant of God" for Western audiences.
In the following years, he co-founded the charitable organizations Seva Foundation and Hanuman Foundation. From the 1970s to the 1990s, he traveled extensively, giving talks and retreats and holding fundraisers for charitable causes.
In 1997, he had a stroke, which left him with paralysis and expressive aphasia which would be better characterized as "fluent, anomic-like with hesitations and word finding difficulties at the conversational level with grossly intact auditory comprehension for high level, low-context information" [10, 11].
He eventually grew to interpret this event as an act of grace, learning to speak again and continuing to teach and write books. After becoming seriously ill during a trip to India in 2004, he gave up traveling and moved to Maui, Hawaii, where he hosted annual retreats with other spiritual teachers until his death in 2019.

(Sadhguru Darshan) "Nobody expected this question from Indian Tibetan Buddhist monk (lama)"? As scandal-ridden "Sadhguru"JaggiVasudev pontificates and goes on an on with his humble brag about how "enlightened" he must be now that he, having been an agnostic atheist not interested in spirituality, he experienced "ecstasy" one day. This made him feel like a holy man (sadhu), and he wants to make the whole world blissful or at least get rich trying.

"Getting high" [finding a temporary way out of our "normal" or usual state of consciousness] is an almost universal human experience. We are taught that alcohol is the default option for humans, but I learned that this is not the case.
Let's discuss the complex morality of the growing kratom use in the world.
Let's try the most famous and confusing legal magic mushroom, the shamanic fly agaric (Amanita muscaria) and explore how to use it for sleep.
Finally, let's learn the best methods to prepare the popular Pacific Island plant kava.
I try all of these plants [from Nature's Plant Pharmacy] and provide a firsthand and honest report on how they make me feel.
I have learned that there is an insane number of legal plant medicines to explore, such as Mormon Tea made of ephedra, shrooms like psilocybin, areca nut or betel nut, Salvia divinorum or seer's sage, and fermented kanna...
