I think it's about time for me to stop writing "There is no code intended by me here" at the top of the page of things I write or create. I'll write this message a few more times, and then, when I've stopped writing it, people can assume that there's no code in anything I say or do unless I say that there is.

--What's really going on
The flooding themes and other slurring metaphors are derogatory metaphors for gender and are being used as repression of women, but those themes are also being used as censorship. The images and symbolism have also been used when I've expressed opinions or ideas about things that have nothing to do with gender, sex or dating. It's very sinister, what's happening; they're not just a few jokes. The goal of the people who are making those slurs every day is to turn women as group into an endless joke. It is about power and control; it's about establishing permanent male dominance. I'm certainly not the only woman whom they attempt to ridicule.
Here's an example of the kind of thing that will happen more and more if the campaign to destroy women's lives continues:
Say you're in a work meeting. You are female; you've just given a report and an opinion. A man at the meeting doesn't agree with you, or he just wants to establish dominance over you in the workplace. Instead of discussing anything in your report or about your opinion, he coughs incessantly while you're talking or at the end of your speech, he pulls on or rubs his nose to indicate that he can smell your vagina from several feet away, he talks about rain, fishing, or swamps or makes similar comments, and he wins that way.
Your report and opinion are disregarded. That happens every time, and that's how he gets promoted and you don't, or even how you get harassed and criticized out of your job. The boss will just say "Other people here don't respect you and that makes you ineffective," and that will be the end of your career.
That's just one scenario out of the many that are going to be the future if what's been happening continues.

--The Department of Labor and Adult Basic Education
I went into the DOL today and saw that someone had tacked a small version of the harassing, pedophilic poster first displayed by the Aldrich Library over other posters on the bulletin board next to the printer. I don't go to that library anymore, as I've said.
The last 2 hours of my time at the DOL, I spent being harassed by some clients of the DOL and the same hateful woman and never particularly helpful guy out of the staff who always give me a rough time when I'm there.
A male DOL client decided to sit next to me and then coughed nonstop for an hour.
A female DOL client was I think being interviewed by someone from Shaw's at the table behind where I was siting; I heard him say to her "You were under the Shaw's umbrella even when you weren't working there."
Some DOL clients, I think a couple, walked in and male staffperson said "There's been so much rain lately," and the male client said "Yeah, if there were less, I'd go fishing."
The female DOL staffperson sat at the staff desk and coughed for two hours. She's not sick; she's just obsessed.
What is it with people like that? They read my blog from yesterday and decided to devote themselves to trying to get me upset today so that they could call the police?
I also went to an office called "Adult Basic Education" because I know that they hold free computer classes there. Their waiting room has a lot of shelves with books on it, and the pedophilic and harassing themes are evident. They had at least two children's books on display, "Swordfish Returns," and one called "Mommy, Do You Love Me?" that had a cover illustration of a woman kayaking through water.
There was also a book called "Hell or High Water" on display.
I'm not sure why I find female pedophiles creepier than male pedophiles. I'm sure I'll get over that distinction and will view both types of pedophiles in the same way soon. However, as far as my feelings up to now are concerned, I think that maybe it's because the pedophilia has been embraced and presented by female pedophiles as if it were part of healthy motherhood and virtuous womanhood. It's all presented in the same way that legitimate mother-child activities get presented in the United States, and that's what makes it especially creepy for me.
It's as if the people pushing it have tried to include pedophilia with the stereotype of women being intrinsically better human beings than men are. I think that's part of what makes it sickening and infuriating; the image of wholesomeness and maternality that the women who are trying to promote it have tried to give it.
At least the men seem to know that they're being horrible; their attitude tends to sound more like "Look at what we can do; we're going to make pedophilia legal BECAUSE WE CAN!" and that's also sickening and infuriating, but it doesn't seem to me that they're trying to pretend to themselves or to anyone else that they are nice people along with being pedophiles.
Which message is more horrible to contemplate of these two:
"Look at what I can get away with now!"
"Pedophilia is what good mothers do."
Bad, either way.
As I'm writing this, I'm at the shelter and male residents have been making comments, ostensibly to each other, about "It seems greasy," and lots of coughing.

I just went back and found the blog page, May 4, 2011, where I first wrote about the poster at the Aldrich Library. I'm going to some of what I wrote and the text of that poster here:
Summer 2011: Authors at the (---------) Library:
June 8: The Complete Kitchen Garden
June 15: Mariner: A Captain’s Duty: Somali Pirates, Navy Seals, and My Dangerous Days at Sea
June 22: Mark Twain: A Life
June 29: Young Adult Novelist: The Astonishing Life of Octavian Nothing, Traitor to the Nation, Vols I & II
July 6: Cheesemaker: In a Cheesemaker’s Kitchen
July 13: Breathless
July 20: The Abacus and the Cross
July 27: Firefighter: The First that Changed Everything
August 3: American Elf
August 10: Sports Writer: 50 Years of Excitement: A History of (the local car racetrack)
August 17: The Way Things Work
The poster says that the series has been “Sponsored by the (this town’s) Learning For Life Committee” and also that it has been “Funded by the Friends of the (library’s name) Library.”
Of all of the things that I’ve been accused of, there is NO LIE which is more undeserved than that I am a traitor to my country.
Also, if I were a parent, I wouldn’t allow my child in that library alone for the duration. How long the duration is going to be is anybody’s guess.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The harassment of me by some of the male residents of the shelter is increasing by the minute; now they're talking about heating up the macaroni and cheese from the other night.
More: "Hey, is there another thing of salt anywhere?"
If I just sit here, they'll say more.
More about things being "fresh."
I tried to do some Microsoft Office tutorials online today, while I was at the DOL. There was an ad that kept appearing along the side of the page, something about "OneNote," in the color that seems to be getting associated with me, purple.
I'm not one note. I was intellectually bored with the sexual harassment theme more than a year ago; I've said that a million times. I'm not the one who can't think of anything to say or do except the same jokes and comments day after day.
All I'm doing is documenting as much of it as I can get to in a day, because it's evil and evil needs to get documented so that reasonable people can do something about it. I don't find it remotely fascinating.

Another comment about "toilet air fresheners," and ugly giggling from a couple of male residents.
I guess they also would like to see me get upset so that they can call me crazy again and then try to get the police called.
@ 7:19 p.m.
More comments;
"deodorant, fishing rod"
Who could find this interesting? It couldn't be more banal.
@ 7:20 p.m.
Another comment:
"macaroni and cheese"
@ 7:20:30 p.m.
I knew this what was I was thinking of: "The Banality of Evil." Hannah Arendt.
I've been on the computer for a while and I'm sure I will be asked to relinquish it. I went to Wikipedia because it was the first search result.
I'm sure that there will be people, harassers, who try to use the last sentence of what I'm going to transcribe from The Wikipedia article to say that what's going on isn't bad, but the first 2 paragraphs so perfectly describe what's going on that I'm including even that last sentence here, just to illustrate its spuriousness in this situation:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Banality of evil is a phrase coined by Hannah Arendt and incorporated in the title of her 1963 work Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil.[1] It describes the thesis that the great evils in history generally, and the Holocaust in particular, were not executed by fanatics or sociopaths, but rather by ordinary people who accepted the premises of their state and therefore participated with the view that their actions were normal.
Explaining this phenomenon, Edward S. Herman has emphasized the importance of "normalizing the unthinkable." According to him, "doing terrible things in an organized and systematic way rests on 'normalization.' This is the process whereby ugly, degrading, murderous, and unspeakable acts become routine and are accepted as 'the way things are done.'"[2]
Spencer Rosenstein collected various uses of the phrase over the last ten years, arguing that the phrase has been overused to the point making it, essentially, a "worsened word."[3]"
