    VP,

    I too remember looking into the Obama birth certificate fiasco at the time and came to the same conclusion as you: that it was a hastily contrived fake in order to shut down the he-wasn’t-born-in-america crowd.

    I wasn’t a PDF expert, but some of the software I worked on while in high tech would generate postscript documents on the fly to avoid the errors that often occurred with human transcription. After watching an expert tear into the PDF version of Obama’s BC, I was convinced it was fake. Another tell was when the document was quickly removed from the White House website and the story memory holed. Whenever the subject came up, which it has a few times over the years, I would always state that there was a great deal of technical evidence that it was a fake. This would typically be followed by a short pause in which the other person would reply, “You’re kidding, right?”.

    Evidence is evidence no matter what the media, investigative committees, or fact checkers say. So far, I’ve not heard a good reason for why the document was pieced together in multiple layers, instead of a flat image one would expect from a scan.

    So, should I believe a government expert on TV who has every reason to lie, or my own judgement based on years of experience in the technical field? I remember thinking at the time, “Something is rotten in Denmark. They must really want this guy in the White House for some reason.”

    “I think it’s fine if Davos bites the dust first, but one of the effects will be for Europe to default on $US debt, which is massive. They will need to fall into the arms of the new BRICS+ regime, perhaps?”

    Defaults will happen, it’s inevitable, but the CB’s have the uncanny ability to relabel it as something else, hide it from the masses, and force outsiders to eat the losses… bank bail-ins for example. The US will eventually default, but first it must break the back of Davos, and derail their Blofeld plans of world dominion.

    A multi-polar world is our friend. Balance of power good, concentration of power bad. Let’s say that Davos wins this war. The 500 million or so that survive their next culling attempt will end up in the Hunger Games, while a small commie cabal owns everything, extracts rent, and enjoys the splendors of their utopian Capital. In comparison, all the extraction colonies will live in squalor, while Effie Trinket tells them on the evening news how lucky they are to be kept around.

    Another great article from Tom Luongo. Sometimes his sense of humor really kills me. Speaking of the pressure that Fed rate hikes have had on euro-bond yields:

    “It puts the positive yield on its skin or else it gets the rate hike again!”

    “Lots of chatter these days about immigration all over the Western world. TPTB seem intent on facilitating it to the maximum, pressing on despite significant opposition to the policy from the general public in most countries. … One has to ask–why?”

    I remember writing about this years ago, and nothing that has happened since then has changed my answer: I believe that the cheap labor provided by western immigration policies is an obvious, but secondary motive that is only enjoyed by certain business interests. It may even be a tertiary motive, as the third-world hordes added to western voting rolls may allow globalists to better control election outcomes, and further their goals for a CBDC UBI surveillance and control strategy.

    I still think the primary goal is to weaken nationalism in preparation for their one-world global government. Uncontrolled immigration induces chaos and stress, dilutes the root culture, and creates division. Unity among the ruled masses is the thing that the elites fear the most.

    Well said, John!

    Either the Universe is based on law or it is not. I believe it is based on law. Either the Universe is just or it is not. I believe it is just. If so, then what is our duty? To learn the law and live it.

    Once you realize that you never “get away” with anything, that thinking so is just an illusion, you start walking life’s path with greater earnestness. Swindle your neighbor out of his life savings, and one day the same will happen to you. If your Karma is good, it will happen in the same incarnation so that you have the opportunity to learn more quickly. If not, you may be allowed to dig a much deeper hole that will take multiple incarnations to extricate yourself from.

    In the beginning, you follow the law because it is in your best interest. Later, you do it out of love for the law and others.

    “There are rumors that the aliens don’t want nuclear war on this planet and are capable of preventing launches. Stories from the silos go back a long time… Rumors…”

    More than rumors, the evidence is incontrovertible to any brave enough to look. Once this is understood, your ideas about life (and evolution) are forever changed. ET’s can come and go at their leisure, using tech that is beyond human comprehension.

    The $64,000 question is this: Is there an interstellar “prime directive” that prevents them from interfering in the affairs of other planets?

    “Big fan of CJ Hopkins, but just finished Desmet’s book over the weekend and think CJ went off the rails on this one.”

    I felt the same after reading CJ’s latest. I couldn’t help thinking that CJ was frustrated with Prof Desmet for not going further with his theory by assigning cause to the globalist agenda, and therefore decided to put some pressure on him: “You know more than what you are saying, Desmet, grow a pair and cough it up.”

    I haven’t taken the time to follow Prof Desmet as closely as others have over the past year, but from what I’ve seen, he has really tightened up his message and doesn’t stray far from his area of expertise. In recent interviews, when interviewers try to lead him into topics that other writers like CJ and Luogo are comfortable with, Desmet flatly refuses and immediately retreats back to the narrow framework of his theory.

    I’m not sure why. Possibly to maintain his credibility within the academic community? To avoid being ‘cancelled’ before he has a chance to make his mark? Other threats?

    @Kassandra said: “What a mess. I don’t even know what to say anymore. Does any of this even seem real to anyone anymore?”

    I think that many books will be written about this time period. What a lesson it has been on the fragility of the human ego and how easily it can be manipulated. For years we mixed fairly easily with family, friends, and co-workers only to have many of them turn on us while under the influence of mass media propaganda campaigns with their so-called authority figures. Contradiction is everywhere apparent, but invisible to the Covid pod people. This applies equally to the pod-army of Trump haters who were the early adopters.

    I guess this is why I was so impressed with Prof Desmet’s mass formation theory when it first appeared on the scene over a year ago. It’s been very satisfying watching the exposure of his ideas grow geometrically since then, culminating with his new book and a slot on Tucker Carlson Tonight.

    “People in the west are overfed, and lazy, and not too sharp, but wait till their kids, and their families, are truly suffering.”

    Ilargi make a key point here. Western culture has been very successful at isolating people from one another, and making them dependent on authoritative sources for their world view. Everything they learn about the world ‘out there’ comes via the MSM filtered, pre-digested, and in most cases fictionalized. After looking at what I’ve just wrote, maybe this has always been the case. Certainly, modern corporatism has placed most individuals into a form of work slavery in which obedience to authority means a roof over your head and food on the table. What makes farmers so brave? Well, they are their own boss for one. Just how do you fire a farmer, ruin his career, or strip him of his stock options? But I digress…

    The point I really wanted to make is how our concerns rarely extend past our own front door. When I visit my sister in NY, she doesn’t even know her neighbors after almost 40 years in the same place. If an ambulance carts away someone two doors down it’s at item of interest; however, the cat getting sick is a heart wrenching tragedy, with a flurry of phone calls to the vet. God help him if he doesn’t pick up on the 2nd ring. What happens to others is of little concern, what happens to us personally is the only thing that will focus our attention.

    So, we’ve not quite hit that “let them eat cake” moment, where the wrath of the commoners is kindled and they all rise up together, but it seems closer now. Those orchestrating this NWO, one-world government push sure are determined to reach their goal. At least it’s out in the open now, with even Sergey Lavrov stating it plainly. This may explain why we are seeing such frantic, ham-fisted attempts to bully non-compliant nations into submission. Now that their plans are out in the open, there is no possibility of retreating into the shadows to wait out the next opportunity. They must push forward at all costs. There is only the hangman’s noose waiting if their current attempt fails.

    Or maybe as Luongo suspects, being psychos, when they finally exhaust all hope of winning, they will try to take everyone with them by overturning the global game board.

    I was invited to attend a coffee group this morning composed of some of the senior gentlemen in our condo complex, and was told that there would be no political talk. What the hell, I thought, I really should be more sociable. One can get much too comfortable living alone.

    So, the conversation floated around different topics until one member of the group decided to pontificate on how the Russians invaded Ukraine in order to steal their resources, and that they were also threatening to take back Alaska. The basic premise being that the future would belong to whoever controlled the earth’s resources, and Russia was making its move to grab what it could.

    Being the newbie of the group, I thought for a few seconds on whether I should just keep my mouth shut and let it slide… but I couldn’t. “So, you’re telling me that Russia, the largest land mass of any nation, resource rich, started this war as a resource grab? Maybe they didn’t want another NATO nation on their doorstep?”, I shot back. “Well, in that case, with Finland and Sweden joining NATO, they’re going to get more”, he replied. This last comment clued me in on how ”tribalism” and “loyalty” appeared to be governing principles in his life.

    Everyone looked around not knowing what to say. Just then I realized that I had thrown a pebble up against a brick wall built by a lifetime of media propaganda consumption. Not only that, but I had challenged the alpha dog in front of the pack. It was time to back away, so I made reference to the “no politics” rule and bit my lip.

    We’ve discussed this many times here at TAE, how difficult a task it is to wake someone up. To help them see that they are being lied to by western media. That their model of the world is false. That they are a slave in the Matrix. Where to start? Which idea to plant that will wedge open a crack to let in some light, that will start the itch which must be scratched?

    For me it was when I decided to write a term paper on the 2008 housing crisis for an ECON class. I did all the research, saw the fraud, yet from all the traditional media sources I heard nothing but LIES. “Those thieving Wall Street MF’s”, I thought. Even then, I still didn’t ‘get it’, and kept looking for more trusted sources in western media. Then in 2011, while I was helping with the Portland Occupy encampment, I turned to the person next to me and asked, “Which news program do you watch?”. Without missing a beat, she shot back in disgust, “I don’t watch any of them.”

    “Whoa!!” It was like having a cold bucket of water thrown in my face. I finally ‘GOT IT’. That was the last time I watched television news, or read a newspaper or magazine.

    Buh-bye “creepy” Georgia Guidestones!

    Seems to me that somebody was able to draw a link between the inscriptions on the stones and the current war against humanity by the WEF globalists – somebody who decided it was time to make a statement which would be difficult to censor.

    So, who does the local television station interview on-site for their news segment? A couple of wandering yokels that looked as if they flunked out of grade school. “Oh the tragedy, why would someone do such a thing to America’s Stonehenge?”

    Stonehenge? Hardy har, har-har! In the two news segments I watched, nothing was said about the monument’s controversial message. Only, that it was a local tourist attraction that was needlessly destroyed by vandals.

    Alastair Crooke rips the WEF and Silicon Valley a new one in his latest article: The ‘Wrong’ Turning Brings on the ‘Fourth Turning’

    The following is an excerpt:

    World Economic Forum Guru of the Great Reset, Israeli Professor Yuval Noah Harari, has stated this explicitly, saying:

    “If you have enough data, and you have enough computing power, you can understand people better than they understand themselves and then you can manipulate them in ways that were previously impossible and in such a situation, the old democratic systems stop functioning. We need to re-invent democracy in this new era in which humans are now hackable animals. The whole idea that humans have this ‘soul’ or ‘spirit’ and have free will … that’s over”.

    Well, it was in Afghanistan that such a vision was stood-up over recent years. This was to be a showcase for technical managerialism. In very real terms, Afghanistan turned into a testbed for every single innovation in technocratic project management – with each innovation heralded as precursor to our wider future. Funds poured in, and an army of globalised technocrats arrived to oversee the process. Big data, AI and the utilization of ever-expanding sets of technical and statistical metrics, were to topple old ‘stodgy’ ideas. Military sociology, in the form of “Human Terrain Teams” and other innovative creations, were unleashed to bring order to chaos.

    The fall of the western-instituted regime in Afghanistan however, so clearly revealed that today’s managerial class – consumed by the notion of technocracy as the only means of effecting functional rule – birthed instead, something thoroughly rotten – “data-driven defeat”, as one U.S. Afghan veteran described it – so rotten, that it collapsed in a matter of days.

    Just watched the clip from the film One by One (2014) that Germ posted. Here are a couple of the lines from the clip which reminded me of a discussion we had here at TAE recently:

    John: There’s no going back from this deal. Everything will change for you once you know.

    Dion: Tell me.

    I’m hearing echoes of Morpheus talking to Neo as he holds a red pill in one hand and a blue pill in the other. Warning Neo that there is no going back once he takes the red pill so as to exit the Matrix.

    One could easily dismiss the idea that there are those currently orchestrating the culling of the global population as too far out, paranoic, fantasy, conspiracy tin-foil-hat stuff. Many felt the same way during WWII when they first heard from the conspiracy theorists of that time that the Nazis were gassing people and then burning the bodies in ovens. I’m sure that this time is different, since we are so much more civilized than people were way back in the 1940’s. We even have the Georgia Guidestones lighting the way to a better future. Take for instance principle #1 carved into each of the stones many languages:

    1. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.

    “As the individual is not just a single, separate being, but by his very existence presupposes a collective relationship, it follows that the process of individuation must lead to more intense and broader collective relationships and not to isolation.”

    This quote reminds me of a dream I had back in my early 40’s, a time period in which I was studying Jungian psychology of all things:

    I was at the top of an enormous tower like a space needle, and was looking down upon the landscape below and all the people milling about. My guide said that I was responsible for all 25,000 of them, but that in order to help them I would need to climb down. Of course, this process of climbing down from such a great height scared the living hell out of me, but my guide stayed opposite of me on the tower, and I was able to climb down successfully by focusing on him instead of the ground far below.

    The understanding I received from this dream was that the people below represented my 25,000 human incarnations, and all 25,000 were still living inside me as various aspects, making me truly a collective being with numerous internal relationships. There was more to extract from the dream imagery, of course, but this was the part pertinent to the quote above.

    @willem posted the link: YOU ARE NOT ALONE

    A wonderfully short article describing a very complex, emotion infested process that is often difficult to put into words. It’s great to be on the other side of this process with a little experience under your belt. However, it’s bloody hell going through it. Lots of arm waving, raging, sadness, and depression. And lots of blank stares, defensiveness, and rejection when you try to share it with those that you love.

    I don’t know if anyone else feels this way, but lately after reading Raul’s notations each morning including the first batch of comments, there’s almost nothing left to say. Everyone has been so spot-on, hitting their targets dead center, eating the lunch of all the establishment narrative spinners while slapping them silly, that anything I would attempt to add would only muddy the water.

    Yes, read it yesterday. One of his best. Worth the time. On a related note, I could’ve sworn that Tom Luongo from Gold Goats ‘N Guns said that he had a podcast in the tank with Alastair Crooke for podcast #111, which he has not yet posted.

    “There is nothing the matter with Americans except their ideals.”

    I agree with this. Life could be so much better if the correct ideals were promoted. Instead, things seemed turned upside down, or IOW #OppositeLand. Everyone chasing after personal satisfaction and happiness, only to have it flee from them like a frightened deer. Therefore, do it harder, run after it faster, earn more money, more sexual conquests, bigger homes, pump up that status. “Geez, Louise, now I’m really unhappy! What gives?”

    I’ve come to the conclusion that this is intentional, serving the purpose of the power elites. They can’t have people running around pointing the masses in the right direction. When the dark side of the force is disturbed by light-bearers, they are quickly neutralized by crucifixion, hemlock, or the ubiquitous “lone gunman” so that the status quo remains undisturbed. After a few years go by, order now restored, they erect statues and sing hymns to these fallen giants, murdered and safely out of the way. It’s the perfect time to pervert their doctrine so as to bury that as well.

    Called my parents last Sunday only to find my father of 93 out in the patio garden getting things ready for summer. No more cough, both feeling fine after their bout with Covid. Since my dad’s oxygen level was borderline, I encouraged him the week before to get some prednisone to augment the healing process, which he did. I was concerned about the 10th day respiratory crash that occurred in some patients, where antihistamines and corticosteroids are needed to get lung functioning back on track. Anyway, they are both doing fine now, however their ivermectin supply was exhausted.

    I’m not sure what is driving the gender confusion. Possibly the proliferation of hormonal drugs finding their way through the food chain.

    There is a place for this, however, but not in childhood when the ego in unprepared and vulnerable. During deep psychological work, a student can contact the contra-sexual aspect of their psyche, awaken it from the subconscious, and unleash forces difficult to control. The job is then to harmonize the two into a one. In Alchemy this was symbolized by the half king – half queen image. I’m certain that this is not what the west is currently experiencing.

    Covid anecdotal:

    Discovered that both my parents were sick when I called last Sunday morning. My step-mom got sick first, then my dad a couple days later. My father kept saying that it was just the flu, so I replied “That’s what Covid is, how much you want to bet you both have Covid?” “Nah, it’s just the flu”, he said. Meanwhile, my step-mom was reading the directions that came with a home Covid self-test kit. “I’m hanging up now so you can each take the test”, I said, “If it turns out positive, I want you to start on the Ivermectin immediately.” Thirty minutes later I get a text that both tests were positive and they wanted to know what dosage to take.

    It’s been a little over a week and they both seem to be doing better, although still dealing with bad coughs. My dad’s oxygen saturation was getting low so I sent her some info on methylprednisolone, and told her to locate some just in case. She wrote back later saying they were feeling better and sent pictures of my dad eating corn-on-the-cob. He’s 93 yrs old. They’re both at that 10-day milestone where things can suddenly turn south, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed and checking on them daily.

    ~~~

    My sister in NY told me recently that she has been having strange tingling in her feet and hands. The neuropathy in her feet even caused her to fall in the garage a couple weeks ago. When I asked about the onset, she wasn’t sure, but said that it was pretty recent, definitely within the last year or six months. Her husband, on the other hand, has been stricken with back pain the past couple of weeks for the first time in his life. I have no idea if his trouble is related to their Covid vaccines, but I’m very suspicious about my sister’s neuropathy.

    I texted her a link to the full video, “A Letter to my MP”, whose trailer TAE posted above. I’m not sure if she’ll watch it, but I thought it was a good overview, was a gentle introduction to the issue, and touched on some important points. I noted that the 3rd person in the video had symptoms appear in his feet and hands similar to hers.

    ~~~

    Bumped into a neighbor down the block this week, who confided that she was recently diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder. She now must take large doses of steroids to keep the pain and tremors under control. I politely mentioned that I’ve seen reports that the Covid vaccines have caused neurological problems in some people, and left it at that. I’ve found it’s a difficult subject to broach, so I do it quickly and calmly, then move on. In my own experience I’ve found that I have to be exposed to something from at least three different sources before I’ll take the hint.

    “A Theory of Impossibility (Fred Reed)”

    Yes, this was delightful. I remember watching a short animation in biology class called: The Inner Life of the Cell. Though animated in slo-mo so that viewers could grasp all of the varied cell processes happening simultaneously, it was still mind-boggling to watch. “Why do these idiots claim that all this intelligent activity occurs from molecular happenstance”, I thought, “Can’t they deduce that there are unseen, energetic forces controlling all this?” The answer, of course, is still beyond the instruments of science, and therefore it doesn’t exist… yet.

    “Cluephone: the Implicate Order, the consciousness and intelligence that runs it comes from outside the physical dimension. Their own geniuses, the people they look up to have said this, but being midwits, they can’t understand.”

    Dr. D nails it again. Science is able to examine the lowest sheath (or body) of a human being, but is unable at this time to examine the other containers that make human life possible on the physical plane: the etheric, emotional, mental, and causal bodies. Each succeeding body composed of higher dimensional matter than the one below. All working together, the higher interpenetrating the lower.

    Once this is understood, all the Great Reset talk of transferring the essence of a human being into an AI machine rings hollow, like a child building a rocket ship to mars in the backyard from a cardboard box.

    I’ve discovered that few are able to get the idea of higher dimensions to register on their mental screen. It seems that certain faculties are needed in order to conceptualize it. A blank stare it the most common response.

    “I stand before the madness and see it truly for what it is and have to question to myself “what the hell am i doing here, I don’t belong here””

    I accepted this fate years ago and decided to make the best of it. Though it often feels like I’ve been consigned to a ‘prison planet’, it’s a wonderful school of learning because there are so many bad examples. A master once counseled his student: “Those who are too good for this world are adorning some other.”

    As one who is often guilty of lazy thinking and sloppy language skills, I very much appreciate the commentary of Dr. D. I love how he picks things to pieces, exposing the contradictions, fallacies, and ego contamination. It reminds me of a book I once read called, The Crest Jewel of Discrimination. One needs a mind like a razor in order to separate the real from the unreal. The average mind is unable to slice and dice an issue into its various interrelated components. The result is a limited mentality that thinks in ego-driven, emotional, amorphous blobs. If it thinks at all.

    Called my sister in NY this morning to touch base. Since we are both getting on in years, we talked about how health issues start encroaching on our activities, and how it’s so difficult to stay fit. She then confided that she’s been experiencing a strange numbness in her hands and feet lately. My first instinct was to ask when she got her booster, but I bit my tongue knowing that it was a bridge too far. I expressed my concern, but otherwise kept silent. As I’ve mentioned before, she lives in the belly of the beast, NY, and her husband is a news junky. Plus, she has enough on her plate without burdening her with the plandemic, its masterminds, and their transhumanist geopolitical agenda.

    So, when she finally got around to wishing someone would put a bullet in Putin’s head, I could no longer keep silent. I told her that it’s important to realize that everything you’re exposed to in the media on Ukraine is a lie. It’s all war propaganda. Then I shared my admiration for Putin, and expressed how good he’s been for the Russian people. That’s when smoke started belching from her tailpipe, along with ball bearings and gear fragments. “We are all entitled to our opinion”, she said after a pause. Little does she realize that her opinions are not her own.

    When one is fully immersed in the Matrix, trying to point out their slavery is next to impossible. Like Morpheus told Neo: “Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself…The Matrix is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.”

    For most, it’s all they can do to survive in the Matrix, but for us here at TAE that’s not good enough. We want to be free. And we want truth and our individual sovereignty, hell be damned!

    Sorry for the long post. I guess it makes up for being quiet the past few weeks.

    I thought these were quite good. Lots of historical info to put the current Ukraine situation into context. My apologies if they were posted already. I’ve been quite distracted by some home projects.

    “Again last night, my sense of isolation was renewed by a call from a good friend on the other side of the country. Since he retired and moved back east, we now only talk maybe once a month. He started out by expressing his depression/distress/anger at “the evil Vladimir Putin.” I thought to myself, “there goes another one.”

    Welcome to the club. This sense of “isolation” is uncomfortable, but one does get used to it after a while, learning to adapt, and learning when to speak and when to remain silent. In effect, letting the inner voice guide us on when our pearls should be cast.

    Just yesterday, I was having lunch with a quite open-minded neighbor and mentioned how my feelings of isolation have only intensified as the great media Lie Machine began careening wildly from one manufactured crisis to the next over the past decade, while taking most of the population along for the ride. Our morning coffee group was literally torn apart during the Trump years, and is now defunct. Another victim of the many psyops. A few of the group even looked on me in disgust (and hatred I might add) when I refused to get the mRNA vaccine in the early stages of the plandemic. Despite many years of friendship, they turned on one another like crazed zombies after being infected by one media mind virus or the next.

    Luckily, my brother is fairly up to speed as well as my parents (dad is 93), but only because of many years of hand-holding, and a gentle weaning process from the corporate media. I’ve learned that very few people know how to do research on the internet, and therefore rely on traditional media for their world view. Even worse, fewer have any grounding in principles or natural law, so can’t tell the difference between a charlatan or a saint, a falsehood or a truth. Their idols are money and comfort, and both are pursued with equal vigor.

    “The ride will be rough because there are many debts (of myriad sorts) to be repaid or set right. Call it a “Market Correction” in both the physical and metaphysical Realms.”

    Correctamundo! And a nice metaphor which helps to grasp the karmic principle.

    There is no free lunch. All must be paid for. The Universe is a just universe, governed by law, and balanced down to the penny. As DBS implied, the national debt is great in more ways than one.

    I just listened to this interview:

    Transhumanism, Biofascism Are Tools of the ‘Technological Elite,’ Author Tells RFK, Jr.

    and thought it was a good overview of the current rising techno-fascism. It began with several clips of Dr. Yuval Noah Harari, the “ideological commissar” of the WEF, spouting his trans-humanist doctrine. The guy is a true physicalist, and therefore believes in nothing higher than himself. He discounts religion in all its forms as quackery and “fake news”, rather than the spiritual kindergartens of humanity, even though highly simplified, down-scaled, and dogmatized for the masses. I’m guessing that he lives completely in his brain and worships mentality as his idol. This would explain his over-infatuation with AI. I would further guess that he has no connection with his heart center, and is therefore dissociated from his humanity, unbalanced, blinded, and insane.

    Their discussion on Trump Derangement Syndrome was particularly clarifying, since it exemplified how strong emotions like hatred and fear can be used to easily manipulate the masses. As in the recent Covid experience, its effects can cause even normally intelligent, educated people to stampede to the opposite side of the boat, so that long-held principles such as bodily autonomy and free speech are easily jettisoned under its influence.

    So sorry to hear about you back, Raúl. Mine has been a nemesis ever since I fell off the garage as a kid and landed on a fence post. Was in pain the whole summer but never said a word to my parents. A bit like Calvin, why would I want to pay twice for the same mistake?

    Eventually had surgery in my late 30’s, which provided me about 20 good years before I did something stupid again. How’s one supposed to know the limits unless you put yourself to the test now and then? Now in my late 60’s it’s a balancing act as to whether a sneeze or wrong move will send me to the floor. Seems to happen at least once or twice a year. Luckily, I keep a prescription of prednisone close at hand, as it’s the only thing that will get me back on my feet.

    Wishing you a speedy recovery.

    Oh, one last thing. Back then, I had to crawl around on all fours for three weeks like an animal before my surgical day arrived. As I was lying in the hospital room waiting for surgery, a nurse handed me a pamphlet outlining the 10 top causes of back trouble. Guess what was at the top of the list?

    Globalists Release Timeline for Health Tyranny


    @Rototillerman

    Thanks for linking the Corbet Report article above. I wasn’t too thrilled with the World Health Assembly’s proposed timeline to implement a ‘legally binding agreement’ for the international coordination of future global health emergencies.

    So I put together a different timeline that I think will be even more effective at insuring a better outcome for global public health:

    Video: Rogan Exposes How West Has Done A Complete 180 On ‘Corrupt’ Ukraine

    “They were talking about the massive corruption of Ukraine, and how horrible it was over there. And now, all of a sudden, they’re looking at it like they’re heroes.”

    See! This is what happens when there is no diplomacy and you go around kicking everyone who makes you unhappy in the nuts. They picked a fight with Joe Rogan when he gave airtime to Dr’s McCullough and Malone, and now he’s pissed off. So now his 10 million followers are getting the low-down on Ukraine, when they could’ve been listening to Rogan interview some author about his new book instead.

    They never learn. With each new blow the state creates more enemies.

    “ZELENSKYY: THE MAN WHO TOOK ON PUTIN – PBS 9:00pm Monday, March 21”

    Couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw this program pop up last night on the telly after exiting the Plex app. Talk about a full court propaganda press. With all the media hysteria you’d think more was at stake with this battle than little ol’ Ukraine on the other side of the globe? And people still tell me they watch PBS and the BBC in order to get a more balanced view of world events. I wonder if Amazon has sold out of Ukrainian flags yet? I need another one for my car.

    “Covid is just a skirmish.. we have a much bigger problem in my opinion and it has to do with the rise of totalitarianism”

    This is why I love this guy, Dr. Robert Malone. He’s already hot on the trail of the WEF’s global plans and talking about it publicly, putting things in perspective for the average Joe. That’s the only way one can make sense of the global Covid response without pulling one’s hair out and screaming about the insanity. The answers which give meaning can be found one level up from Covid in the WEF. Direct your artillery there for maximum effectiveness, especially now that Covid has been fully exposed as a giant scam.

    What do you call someone who had a comfortable life on a beautiful horse farm, surrounded by family and friends, and then leaves it all behind to barnstorm the planet with a call to arms? Working long days, running from one event to the next, maybe getting 4 hours sleep per night in strange hotels, receiving death threats, enduring attacks, losing long-time associates and friends? Such men are rare, we call them heroes. Dr. Malone would deny it, of course, saying that he was just doing what was right.

    “The U.S. has no one capable of sailing its ship of state, no one in a position of influence worthy of the title “diplomat.”

    When you are the sole superpower there is no need for diplomacy, only threats of force and the use of force. When you have a giant military hammer whose bases span the globe, every problem the State Dept. sees looks like a nail. And when you control the global banking system the solution to every “diplomatic” problem is a check or a sanction, a bribe or a stick. Diplomacy is for the weak don’t ya know.

    I would like to see Dr. D’s analysis cross-posted on every alt-media site by the end of the day. Make it so Number One!

    This is currently a war to control humanity’s hearts and minds, as much as it is to control the world’s natural resources. That has been my battlefield for the past few years, just as it’s been for many others who visit TAE. From where I sit we are winning this battle. If you compare where we were one year ago with where we are today, you will come to the same conclusion.

    With that in mind, I can’t help but wonder when they plan on throttling the entire internet, which has been our greatest weapon in this battle?

    Oxy’s party experience is a snapshot of the profound sickness in western culture. The only cure, I’m afraid, is what Mister Roboto suggested, “a high-speed appointment with a brick wall”. It reminded me a favorite passage from Yogananda’s classic work, Autobiography of a Yogi: (highlights are mine)

    My guru could never be bribed, even by love. He showed no leniency to anyone who, like myself, willingly offered to be his disciple. Whether Master and I were surrounded by his students or by strangers, or were alone together, he always spoke plainly and upbraided sharply. No trifling lapse into shallowness or inconsistency escaped his rebuke. This flattening treatment was hard to endure, but my resolve was to allow Sri Yukteswar to iron out each of my psychological kinks. As he labored at this titanic transformation, I shook many times under the weight of his disciplinary hammer.

    “If you don’t like my words, you are at liberty to leave at any time,” Master assured me. “I want nothing from you but your own improvement. Stay only if you feel benefited.”

    For every humbling blow he dealt my vanity, for every tooth in my metaphorical jaw he knocked loose with stunning aim, I am grateful beyond any facility of expression. The hard core of human egotism is hardly to be dislodged except rudely. With its departure, the Divine finds at last an unobstructed channel. In vain It seeks to percolate through flinty hearts of selfishness.

    This is love. This is a true physician. Not all of us are ready, nor could we tolerate the searing discipline of a Master like Sri Yukteswar. Thus, life must be our teacher. In my own case, the healing process has been the occasional Mister Roboto-like brick wall crash, interspersed with long periods of having the ego slowly ground into a fine powder. And that, just to achieve some sense of sanity.

    @Oroboros

    Thanks for the lesson. My hat’s off to you for your ingenuity in handling the hooker dilemma at such a young age. I can guarantee you that put in the same situation I would’ve failed miserably. Thanks to my Dickensian upbringing, along with a host of other innate deficiencies, I had little skill when it came to people-related issues. Luckily, I was able to find a career in microelectronics. There were times when I was encouraged to move into management, but I resisted. For one, I loathed going to meetings, and secondly, I found my greatest happiness when solving technical problems for the company or my customers.

    I’ve spent the last half of my life working my ass off to make up for those early deficiencies with some success.

    I hope you are right about Russia. I’ve been a Putin admirer for many years, but he is up against a global cabal that is as ruthless as it is reckless. They seem intent on putting the entire world at risk to achieve their goals. Nothing less than smashing them to pieces and driving the remainder from every sanctuary will suffice in order to create a lasting peace.
