“The most important thing for everyone in Gringolandia is to have ambition and become 'somebody,' and frankly, I don't have the least ambition to become anybody.”
- Frida Kahlo

A few days before her death, Kahlo mustered the strength to attend a rally in her wheelchair to protest the CIA-backed coup d’état against the democratically-elected Guatemalan President Jacobo Árbenz. Shortly after the rally, on July 13, 1954, Kahlo died at the age of 47.

KAHLO had  Polio as a Child -She had one leg shorter than the other as a result.. Her Father was German.. Her Mother 'indigenous' Mexican. Leon Trotsky [real Jewish Name Lev Davidovitch 'Bronstein']was murdered in Her House in MEXICO CITY by a 'Communist Agent' Ramon Mercador...His Story from the Spanish Civil War is largely forgotten.. He used 'fake ID's that originally belonged to 'Volunteers' in the 'International Brigades' and had been 'appropriated' by Stalins 'Agents' -these provided authenticity and enabled Him to enter Mexico un-noticed...

SYPHILIS is a BACTERIAL - 'STD' easily treated these days with Penicillin.

However it was not always the case...because the Symptomology could be easily confused with other ailments it came to be known as 'THE GREAT IMITATOR'....and before Penicillin  all kinds of weird  attempts at 'Home Cures' were tried without success -including using 'Sarsaparilla' and various kinds of Herbal Concoctions.

POLIO  which is nowadays largely eradicated in the Western World is a VIRAL illness and Treatments included the use of Machines that would assist Breathing etc [DRINKER NEGATIVE PRESSURE MACHINES]


VIRAL and BACTERIAL are different Pathogens 

PRESIDENT ABRAHAM LINCOLN - His Wife died from SYPHILIS, Their Three children died in infancy undiagnosed. They tried using 'HEMP' as a 'Home Remedy' without success. 
His Mother Nancy died in 1818 from what was called 'MILK SICKNESS' after drinking Milk from cows that had consumed a local Herb called 'WHITESNAKE ROOT' https://www.capegazette.com/article/white-snakeroot-plant-killed-abe-lincoln%E2%80%99s-mom/184715

it was also known as 'PUKING SICKNESS'..

PRESIDENT FRANKLIN  D ROOSEVELT  developed Symptoms of Paralytic POLIOMYELITIS 
at the age of 39 and was Paralyzed from the Waist down.

Famous People with SYPHILIS include...TOLSTOY NIETZSCHE HITLER BEAUDELAIRE
 'AL' CAPONE BENITO MUSSOLINI etc
a quick Web Search will uncover Hundreds more- Including  V.I.U 'LENIN'

for Reference; 

Famous People with POLIO include...JONI MITCHELL MIA FARROW DONALD SUTHERLAND
NEIL YOUNG  ..a quick Web Search will uncover Hundreds more-Including ARTHUR C CLARKE

in fact Young has been ripped off by Me throughout...['Rust Bucket' 'On the Beach' etc 'Old Man' blah blah]

A  Historic 'Treatment' for SYPHILIS was known as a  'Tabernacle'

 During the sixteenth century, mercury was administered to syphilitic patients in various ways, including by rubbing it on the skin, by applying a plaster, and by mouth.[67] A "Fumigation" method of administering mercury was also used, in which mercury was vaporized over a fire and the patients were exposed to the resulting steam, either by being placed in a bottomless seat over the hot coals, or by having their entire bodies except for the head enclosed in a box (called a "tabernacle") that received the steam.[67] The goal of mercury treatment was to cause the patient to salivate, which was thought to expel the disease. Unpleasant side effects of mercury treatment included gum ulcers and loose teeth.[67] Mercury continued to be used in syphilis treatment for centuries; an 1869 article by Thomas James Walker, M. D., discussed administering mercury by injection for this purpose.[68]

During the 16th century, it was called "great pox" in order to distinguish it from smallpox. In its early stages, the great pox produced a rash similar to smallpox (also known as variola).

 However, the name is misleading, as smallpox was a far more deadly disease. The terms "lues"[59] (or Lues venereaLatin for "venereal plague") and "Cupid's disease"[60] have also been used to refer to syphilis


Another 16th-century treatment advocated by the Italian physician Antonio Musa Brassavola was the oral administration of Root of China,[67] a form of sarsaparilla (Smilax).[72] In the seventeenth century, English physician and herbalist Nicholas Culpeper recommended the use of heartsease (wild pansy).[73]


So much confusion before proper Treatments.

It was the same with POLIO.



TRANSMISSION OF POLIO VIRUS WAS OFTEN THROUGH CONTACT WITH FECES
AND MANY UNCHLORINATED SWIMMING POOLS ARE THOUGHT TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR SPREADING THE VIRUS.

although it is by no means certain SYPHILIS was at one time thought to originate from SHEEP 
[See Web]

A 'SPINAL TAP' [LUMBAR PUNCTURE] is a procedure that is used to identify SYPHILIS and other possible ailments Cancers etc by Medical Doctors [MD's] sometimes given by Nurses or other trained Technicians 'Paramedics' etc.

SPINAL TAP is also the name of a Spoof 'Rock Band' invented for American TV Audiences [see web]

not really My 'Cup of Tea' but whatever...

I do not know what fate awaits me
I only know I must be brave
And I must face a man who hates me
Or lie a coward, a craven coward
Or lie a coward in my grave
Oh, to be torn twixt love and duty
S'posin', I lose my fair haired beauty
Look at that big hand move along
Nearin', high noon
[Tex Ritter] 

 lol...TEX RITTER is English Slang for 'Asshole'..[Shitter]

GUATEMALA and TUSKEEGEE are infamous for SYPHILIS for different reasons.
The UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT has apologized and paid out Millions in compensation to the Victims of this Unethical 'Experimentation'....that They denied ever existed...
THEY WILL HAVE TO DO THE SAME TO VICTIMS OF THEIR[STILL DENIED] 'MK ULTRA' PROGRAM- EVENTUALLY. [CANADA HAS ALREADY PAID OUT VICTIMS IN AN ONGOING CASE]

ITS LIKE HENDRIX SAID..CASTLES MADE OF SAND FALL INTO THE SEA..

Sobchack: Take an example that I have written extensively about: phantom limbs. If someone hadn’t been able to subjectively describe phantom sensations – it’s not always pain – then how would anyone have known to look for the neurological processes that cause them?



UNTREATED SYPHILIS CAN LEAD TO DEAFNESS...DUDE...HERE'S THE NAME OF A GOOD DOCTOR...LOL..

'Christina's World'  is a Painting by ANDREW WYETH [1948] 




The Woman depicted is Anna Christina Olsen. She did not have Polio as is commonly believed but rather a degenerative muscular disorder known as Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease.
This condition meant that She was unable to walk from a young age. Despite this Christina Olsen was known for Her determination and independence, choosing to crawl rather than use a Wheelchair..

In Arthur C. Clarke's novel 2001: A Space OdysseyChristina's World is one of the two paintings (the other one being Vincent van Gogh's Bridge at Arles) hanging on the living room wall of "an elegant, anonymous hotel suite" to which the astronaut David Bowman is transported after passing through the Star Gate.[10][11] It does not appear in the film adaptation directed by Stanley Kubrick. The painting is, however, part of the sci-fi film Oblivion (2013), paying homage to the novel.

The life of Olson and her encounter with Wyeth is portrayed in the novel A Piece of the World by Christina Baker Kline.[12]

A scene in the 1994 film Forrest Gump[13] and a chapter in the 2020 video game The Last of Us Part II[14] were inspired by the painting.

The painting is also referenced in the 2020 film I'm Thinking of Ending Things,[15][16] a season 4 episode of the TV series Atlanta, a Madeline Johnston song of the same name,[17] and Ethel Cain's music video for the 2022 song "American Teenager" [wikipedia]



but wtf do I know about Art?.. Starman ...lol.. Jackson Pollock splattering Paint- 'Vaginal' ART...by Frida Kahlo
