    On a daily basis I am not aware of being depressed as I go about my day but in the last 4 weeks I have had the slow and dawning realisation that I am coping but not that happy. I really have to find my centre. This whole shit show has such HUGE ramifications and so many direct ACTUAL ones to me personally that it is starting to catch up a bit I am afraid.
    I don’t want to bum people out but it’s disabling. Yesterday my little 3 year old boy had a pretty bad ear infection (we think) and I tried to get him to the doc. The clinic allowed us a car parking number (3) and we had to wait 2 hours (him screaming and snotty while my 11 year old tried to draw). The clinic called and the doc gets on the phone to diagnose via the telephone. What the actual fuck? He was too scared to come out to a parking lot and see a 3 year old. I mean really. Where is this headed. 3 year olds are killing old people now apparently.
    We just came home gave him a bath and some panadol and vitamin c tablets. He is better today.
    My best friend is getting open heart surgery to have a pulmonary valve replacement (with a bit of pig) but he has been waiting for months and down to 48% oxygen levels in the blood at times.

    Work is as stop start as you can imagine and very hard to get up and running.
    I keep coming back to this need to take care of one’s own necessities. On that level we are doing okay but it takes a village and the village is deranged.
    This is not a drill.

    Speaking of art – my favourite artist ever could use a spin – hundertwasser. He’s big on nature too. I went to art school when I saw his work – just spoke on some really significant level to me.

    I love this – it has a great popular literary style –I got a call from Davos [during The World Economic Forum] from the CEO of Moderna,” he says. Bancel had been approached by a number of public health groups at the conference “urging” him to work on a vaccine. “We literally Decided overnight…to try and do this,” Afeyan said at MIT.
    The ‘hero’ getting the call. We’ll need the right actor for this when they make a movie about how big Pharma saved the world.

    I’ve had a theory for at least 25 years that the Northern hemisphere would evolve to become Eucalyptus dominated landscape over time. They love heat, mostly only germinate seed from fire and Californians have planted them everywhere – although I suspect the love of Corymbia and Eucalyptus Cameldulensis is the wrong move. Maybe they should look at Eucalyptus Cladocalyx. Loves heat – tolerates cold and grows in 200 mm of average rainfall.

    Cheering the profiteer in the Royal Box – how velly velly Brittish
    Sarah Gilbert from Whitney Webb’s piece a little while back

    Developers of Oxford-AstraZeneca Vaccine Tied to UK Eugenics Movement


    For instance, mainstream media has had little, if anything, to say about the role of the vaccine developers’ private company—Vaccitech—in the Oxford-AstraZeneca partnership, a company whose main investors include former top Deutsche Bank executives, Silicon Valley behemoth Google, and the UK government. All of them stand to profit from the vaccine alongside the vaccine’s two developers, Adrian Hill and Sarah Gilbert, who retain an estimated 10 percent stake in the company. Another overlooked point is the plan to dramatically alter the current sales model for the vaccine following the initial wave of its administration, which would see profits soar, especially if the now-obvious push to make COVID-19 vaccination an annual affair for the foreseeable future is made reality.

    Today I met with a client to do some garden work for her She told me how she had just watched the standing ovation at Wimbledon for female research scientist at Oxford, she said she cried. She said that just knowing there where people out there doing work so tirelessly to keep us safe and help get us out of this nightmare moved her to tears.
    I mentioned Ivermectin and it’s amazing results with patients in care and it’s prophylaxis results – she got angry at me and said it was that kind of rubbish that is diluting the drive to get everyone vaxxed. I nodded like a coward and smiled a vacant empty smile that went past her face to the endless horizon time line and thought – yep – we are screwed.

    Excerpt from Snowden today
    in democracies today, what is important to an increasing many is not what rights and freedoms are recognized, but what beliefs are respected: what history, or story, undergirds their identities as citizens, and as members of religious, racial, and ethnic communities. It’s this replacement-function of false conspiracies — the way they replace unified or majoritarian histories with parochial and partisan stories — that prepares the stage for political upheaval.

    Shit is fan-hitting everywhere and people are staring at the frikken ground like that’s gunna help. Although I guess it is where Ivermectin was hiding so maybe we should all be dirt-worshippers after all.

    Couple of things – firstly, John Day – love that avocado action! Here in central Victoria Australia we get from -4 to 45 c. The avocados I discovered can handle the cold – bacon, hass, fuerte and rincorn varieties BUT the bark cannot handle full sun in bone dry heat on that bark. When I try again in the next year or two I will whitewash the bark and mulch heavily!
    secondly – absolute galore, stoning the unvaxxed is getting so close I am about to start engineering lies to cover my arse in the short terms and hope that pilots falling from the skies bring some ‘review’.
    third – anyone else here starting to move from bewildered to nervous?

    Today in Australia – Vaccinees now have indemnity for any adverse reactions related to Astra Zeneca, as long as it is through a GP who will give informed risks – (what info I don’t know).
    Is this going to cripple the Govt.? I think it will get very hard in the long term to prove adverse reactions but in the short term it is good news for people getting jabbed.

    TAE summary – that could have been your best yet. Hilarious.

    Madamski – thank you for your self-reflection and your Vaccine synopsis/summary – very useful and already sent off to a friend ‘who gets me’
    Also – re the anger and frustration – I think we will all be feeling it and good to check in here if anyone is feeling upset or emotional, just let us/me know and I am sure we will be able to lend support. These are difficult times. And during difficult times ya need friends – even disembodied diaspora can be friends – lookin’ at you upstateNYer.

    democritus just so you know there are many here who have been or may have to vaccinate. We are questioning or trying to find answers to why these ‘vaccines’ were rushed through to the entire global population. There are many factors why we would seek information around this. One is the stakes are just so staggeringly high if they prove harmful. If individuals do okay or well – that is one thing, but if the numbers and the research indicates that a certain percentage of the population do not do well then we have issues and implications. It’s kind of like using cfc’s in our hairspray and whatnot . Seems great at the time and now we have this rather large hole in the ozone layer which just doesn’t help with skin cancer. Am I anti-hairspray? No, and chicks dig it. Am I pro-skin. Well yes I am and there in lies the old precautionary principle which this big ole world just chucked out the window in favour of fear and profits. Ivermectin comes to mind.
    But again maybe our interpretations of the info are from different perspectives, like maybe you just ain’t that much into skin. I dunno

    Snowden piece – Dissidents in closed or closing societies naturally come to understand the 16th-century wisdom of Étienne de La Boétie: the State is an abstraction, which depends on citizens — individuals — to execute its will.

    It’s very pertinent to me right now given the social awkwardness of wanting to discuss the current changes to the way the world works. There is so much self-censorship or reading of the room so to speak. It is socially disabling for me because I want to discuss these things but people really freak out. I am largely debt free and have committed a truck-load of reading time over the last year and a half and feel waaaaaaay more researched but people just think because they read a few headline news items that we are on an equal playing field. It’s also kind of rude. I am putting in a huge effort with facts and data and reading and podcasts and videos and papers (Vander bosch and the rest – you all know what I’m talking about) and you get lines like ‘well I guess we get different information don’t we’ or ‘ you are not another one of those anti-vaxer tin hat freaks are ya?.
    ‘Ah no – I just read and analysed and you just accepted whispers in your ears and got angry and frightened’
    Then someone comes along and says John Stewart is sooooo onto it. OMG.
    I’m going to bed.

    There has been chatter for a while now – particularly with The Social Dilemma movie about algorithmic news feeds and the risks of ending up in your own echo chamber etc. I have been thinking how this forum has ‘trends of info’ and – I guess types of people with similar perspectives but being a feed that is not calibrated by Youtube or Facebook or whatever, but calibrated and directed by Raul and then co-evolved by the forum members. This dodges some major bullshit bullets. Also ideas regularly get supported or challenged. This is biologic not algorithmic and I very much like that.

    I like it very much. Nearly as much as I like saying I buy horse-paste to fight COVID. Tickles me.

    8. In 2013, the US Supreme Court reiterated the legal principle of informed consent
    in a case involving a citizen who refused to consent to a blood test. A blood sample was taken against his will on orders of a police officer. In a 6 to 3 ruling, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the plaintiff — even as the justices recognized that both privacy and harm were minimal.
    Missouri vs McNeely, 569 US 141 (2013)

    the human body implicates significant, constitutionally protected privacy interests…”

    Right now – my biggest task is to get my bearings. I feel like I’m on a wildly rocking ship headed to a strange land.
    The emotional stuff is what I have to sit with. I had a friend call me an anti-vaxer again today. Close friend. Feels weird.
    There is this crazy balancing act of trying to get people to ask questions and stay open (coz science changes) and also protecting yourself from feeling too judged. I guess I may have to get used to cautious conversations and perhaps just being the asshole for a while.

    Evil… I must admit I take the bait – relentlessly and I rail and despair at the shit-fuckery but. It is a big but too. The way I see it is – I woke up this morning and looked into a mirror and a head was looking back at me. I am seeing this world through bodies eyes. This means I will often be defensive and see attack – from evil. But that has to be my ego otherwise all is lost. The ‘Good’ – I believe comes when people see themselves as bigger than just one body – to such an extent they will even care about other countries and whole of humanity (like Dr D, Madamski and Raul amongst all others on this forum). The ‘evil’ ones are thinking about what they can accumulate for their individual self.
    They need our compassion (and a kick in the arse) and we need our compassion too because we will experience the anger and it is not fun – I know.
    The ‘good’ are prepared for hard work, sharing, honesty etc, and hate lies because it’s selfish and want for others what they want for themselves – liberty and freedom at whatever level they will accept.

    There is another concept I want to lay out at some stage around hierarchy of illusions and why it fails and also it’s delicious allure. For now I’m stuck musing on good and evil – thanks for throwing out the thought ball upstateNYer

    Back to the fear thing – at the end of the day ALL fear is related to bodies and bodily attacks which is why our saints preserve us – they see through that. I have found this rolling totalitarian thunder frightening at times, as it threatens my optimism for humanity. We need to find comfort in the now. The peace of being still and the considering the phrase “forgiveness is kind and does nothing – it merely looks, waits, and judges not”. There are some among us who are vaccinated and this should breed sensitivity in us when we want to freak out and proclaim ideas like mass genocide is coming etc. Right now we know (as far as I can tell) that the safety profile is no where evn close to what it should be regarding COV 2 vaccines. What we don’t know is how dangerous, how long the danger etc. I think we all keep asking questions and looking but also be cautiously optimistic that the world will continue (albeit in a more shitty form).
    Love you guys.
    You little internet connected, knowledge-hungry avatars.
