Wow, so! That was something!

I hope you listened to Phil’s live last night, gang.

I believe the entirety of the cat is out of the bag.

No way would anyone have let Phil go into all that detail about his CIA/NSA/Q background, if we weren’t looking at the end game!!

If you missed it, here is the replay (2 hrs):

I am still unclear about the SCOTUS comms.

It could also mean that Trump will be cleared of all (fake) charges since he is a sitting President, etc. (This was mentioned in Phil’s live last night).

So the SCOTUS comm could be about Trump, about rigged elections, or about the J6-ers — or maybe somehow, all 3? They would all affect Trump in a positive way.

And maybe Phil’s recent “locomotion” comm was not about a train derailment, but the complete derailment of the Deep State, like, today?

We shall see.

Meanwhile, just stay prepared, okay? Gas in tank, extra food for you and your family, including furry members, and cash on hand.

I was watching this very interesting livestream last night, while waiting for Phil to start:

FBI Arrests Babylon Bee Actor Siaka Massaquoi (1 hr):

Good news underway from Gitmo–

From Real Raw News yesterday:

Katie Hobbs Military Tribunal, Day I

The United States Navy Judge Advocate General’s Corps and Office of Military Commissions commenced its case against former Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs on Monday, having indicted her on charges of treason, defrauding the United States, and conspiracy to commit murder.[…]

[…] On or about August 22, 2022, the admiral explained, Hobbs conspired to have Kari Lake murdered so she could essentially run unopposed.

Admiral Crandall swore in JAG’s first witness, Rose Huerta, Hobbs’ campaign finance director, whom the military had apprehended on September 26, the day of Hobbs’ arrest. She had reportedly accepted a plea bargain to testify against her former employer. The admiral asked her if she recognized Hobbs as present in the courtroom.[…]”

Honestly, what good is having all these cats…

If not a single one of them will bring me more coffee??

I actually had to get out of bed, go all the way downstairs to the kitchen and get the refill myself.

And since I was already out of bed…. I came back upstairs and sat down at my desk.

Okay. So I’m here.

However, there is not really anything to post today. Phil couldn’t do his live last night, so it is once again re-scheduled. It should be tonight at 8PM eastern. As always, though, check his channel later to confirm.

**********

Okay, well it was brought to my attention that I’m expected to bake some sort of amazing dessert for Christmas dinner. (Two of the young men who will be here — see yesterday’s post — are professional cooks and they will actually be making Christmas dinner here, in its entirety. I’m providing eggnog, the wine, the espressos and the Courvoisier…)

Most people don’t remember me from the Dark Ages… but back then, I was an amazing baker. I really was. Cookies, cakes, pies, primarily.

My favorite cake — although the cake itself was just a white layer cake with white frosted sides and layers of green frosting leaves on top — was “The Beatles at Shea Stadium” cake!

The Beatles at Shea Stadium, NYC, August 15th 1966

I had found a set of vintage Beatles cake toppers–

Like this:

And I simply put them on top of the cake. It was my drummer/boyfriend’s 30th birthday. And his birthday was July 7th — the same as Ringo’s. So. Voilà!

Anyway. It was simple, but it was fun.

However, after I was married to Wayne for a few years and his diabetes started to get worse, I stopped baking entirely. Just to cut down on the temptation of all that sugar. And since then — almost 30 years ago — I stopped baking.

But in the old days… in the 1980s, my best friend, Valerie in Brooklyn, who was also an incredible baker, was the Pastry Chef at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC. And for a brief time, I was her assistant.

MoMA Sculpture Garden, circa 1980s

It turned out that I really didn’t like baking professionally — I found it tedious and not very creative. I had to bake the same things, day in, day out; over and over and over. And I preferred to try to flirt with Valerie and fool around with her in the giant walk-in fridge. (Wherein, she was heard saying, for the first time ever in the known history of the world: “Emmy, stop it! We have to work!!”) (We were also lovers, btw.) (And she called/calls me “Emmy” because, in the very early days, she simply called me “M” because everyone knows that “Marilyn” takes way too much time to pronounce, and then, of course, the diminutive of “M’ is “Emmy”…)

Anyway. Okay. So I didn’t last long as a professional Assistant Pastry Chef. But I did love to bake. But I haven’t done it now in decades, so I’m freaking out and I texted Valerie last night, and said: “Oh no! What should I bake??”

And she replied: “MoMA’s Cheesecake! I’ll send you the recipe!”

So that’s on my horizon for Christmas dinner. We’ll see how that goes!!

Meanwhile… I’m gonna scoot. If anything interesting happens, I will come back here later and post it.

Have a wonder-filled Wednesday, wherever you are in the world, gang!!!

Thanks for visiting. I love you guys. See ya!

The Distant Thunder Wasn’t Rumbling…

I’m guessing that you already know Phil could not do his livestream last night because Rumble was under attack over the J6 videos.

Rumble was down all over the place yesterday. Here in my area of Ohio, it was down all day and into the early evening.

Phil is planning to do his livestream tonight instead, at 9PM eastern time, if everything goes okay. Check his channel later to confirm. This will be an intel drop, if he finally gets to do it.

He also had another one of those “locomotion” videos in his car yesterday — watch it here — which seems to indicate another train derailment is coming, in perhaps 3 days? Somewhere in San Francisco? But he is happy, so I’m guessing it’s a psy-op, or optics, or both.

We’ll see.

*************

Here, in my corner of the world, things are going really nicely. For the first time in the 5 and 1/2 years that I’ve lived here, I’ll actually be having people here for Christmas dinner!! Not just my current houseguests, but also someone I work with at the train station, who can’t get home to Tennessee right now, so he’ll be out here in rustic Muskingum County, sleeping on my couch for Christmas!!

I’m super excited, actually. There will be four of us, and I am literally 40 years older then the other 3 who will be at the dinner table….luckily I’m super permissive!! You get to do pretty much anything I did when I was in my early twenties….

(Whoa!!)

***********

Okay, gang, that’s it.

I’m going down to the kitchen to make a pot of soup!

Have a terrific Tuesday, wherever you are in the world!!

Thanks for visiting. I love you guys. See ya!

Music to make soup by!!!!

I love this song, gang!! I’ve posted it here before, but here it is again —

Don Williams with some classic Cajun Country, from 1977: “Louisiana Saturday Night.” Play it loud and enjoy!!!

And this!!!

Yes, I’ve posted this, too!! More than once. I love the Mavericks’ version of this old Bruce Springsteen song, “All That Heaven Will Allow.” 1993. Enjoy!!

Another Rainy Saturday in the Hinterlands

Only a couple of interesting things today, gang. And both of them are from Phil.

He mentions that he has the intel we are waiting for but he is still waiting for the green light. He will either discuss it on his Christmas giveaway livestream on Sunday night — or sooner, if he can. Check his channel to confirm.

He also re-posted this, from Vigilant News, and Phil adds “coming to a country near you”:

“‼️ 🚨BREAKING: The elections won by President-elect Bernardo Arévalo in the August 20 runoff are invalid due to alleged administrative irregularities by the Supreme Electoral Tribunal, Guatemala’s Attorney General’s Office said Friday.

According to the Office of the Prosecutor General the electoral documents used in the elections are “legally void” because “they were not initially approved” by the Supreme Electoral Tribunal.

The alleged invalidation of the election results was announced by prosecutor Leonor Morales in a press conference on Friday, in which she said that the elections for president, legislators, mayors and delegates to the Central American Parliament should be annulled.”

Shane MacGowan’s funeral was yesterday in Ireland.

Johnny Depp delivered a prayer of the faithful, and was also a pall bearer.

And Nick Cave sang a tribute of one of Shane’s songs, “A Rainy Night in Soho.” It is just stunning, gang.

And this brought such a tear of joy to my eyes, even though it was a funeral procession:

Crowds sing Shane MacGowan’s hits as funeral procession travels through Dublin

And that is it for now, gang.

Enjoy your Saturday, wherever you are in the world.

Thanks for visiting. I love you guys. See ya!

My driving-to-town music from yesterday!

I have loved this song ever since I was a wee bonny lass in Cleveland!! If you haven’t listened to this song in awhile, listen again! It is so uplifting, gang. Okay. Enjoy.

What a morning!

Honestly, gang, we are so flooded with optics these days, that when I saw the announcement (everywhere) that Putin announced he was running for President in 2024 — I literally thought he meant here in the US!

I actually thought he was being funny…

Then, of course, it finally penetrated my over-optic’d brain that he meant President of Russia…

Anyway. If you want optics, gang, spare 19 minutes of your day and listen to this update from Ben Fulford (from Dec. 4th). The now-unfathomable depth of optics being put forth here will boggle your mind.

However, buried within all this insanity (lies, I guess is a good word for it), are actual pieces of news. And some of it just staggers me.

Fulford is the one who told us (last Spring, I think it was) that the Presidents of Mexico and Turkey had been assassinated by Black Hats (heart attack weapons) and replaced with White Hat body doubles in order to block WWIII.

In this video update below, Fulford also maintains that Kim Jong Un was taken out right after agreeing to meet with President Trump, and that there’s been a body double in his place now for several years. (I can’t vouch for it, obviously, since I am way over here in the middle of nowhere, Ohio.) (And of course, there are still persistent rumors that Putin was taken out several years ago, too, and that the current Putin is a White Hat body double, as well. And, of course, when you start comparing photos… well, no way does that look like the same guy, right?)

Almost like looking at “Lady Gaga”, who was allegedly executed for Crimes Against Humanity in 2020. You try to compare photos of he/she over the years, and today, no way on Earth does it look like the same person (or gender — “Lady Gaga” now looks like a full-fledged biological female). But they chalk it up to years and years of plastic surgeries, and other surgeries…

So, you try to stay on top of it. I’m exhausted.

Anyway, here is the Fulford Report and it is definitely worth listening to!

BEN FULFORD GEOPOLITICAL NEWS 04.12.2023 (19 mins):

**********

I thought that this was interesting, in connection to what Fulford reported about Erdogan allegedly being assassinated last Spring, and also what Phil told us recently about Putin eventually declaring war on Israel, which would bring the whole world to a head and this god-awful movie to a close…

From Disclose.tv:

“NOW – Erdogan says Turkey ‘is ready to take responsibility to prevent further bloodshed’ in Gaza.

‘We now realize that international organizations responsible for ensuring global peace and security lack problem-solving capability,’ Erdogan added.”

In other news…

Today is Shane MacGowan’s funeral in Dublin, and it is also the 43rd anniversary of the murder of John Lennon (by the CIA). (Read here, if you missed my previous attempts to bang you over the head with it: KILL THE MESSENGER: The Murder of John Lennon by CIA Operation 40 – By Gualdo Hidalgo.)

Phil announced that his and Kerri’s $100K Christmas giveaway will be live on Sunday, December 10th at 7PM Eastern time!!

And that is kind of it, for now, gang.

Enjoy your Friday, wherever you are in the world. Stay safe. Stay sane!!!! (That’s a joke — how can anyone stay sane these days??!!)

Curious update!

Phil just re-posted this from Midnight Rider Channel:

“Insurrection Act Supersedes Posse Comitatus as Legal Basis for President Trump to Restore Order in 2nd Term”

And still no intel on what it was that happened that is allegedly bringing Trump back “sooner” than anticipated, but Phil had a short video update about it yesterday. Link is HERE in case you didn’t see it.

I’m seriously over trying to create a link to my zazzle merch store that actually works, so what I did was create a merch page here on the blog, with each individual product. It’s in the menu, under “About Marilyn Jaye Lewis” — here is the direct link.

The Cyber Monday sale prices are over, though.

********

I still have not had the mental or emotional energy to get all the Christmas stuff out of the storage closet yet. I’m working on it, though.

The more I don’t do it, the more stressed I get. And the more stressed I get, the less I feel like doing it…

*******

Okay. That’s really it for now. If something happens, I will be back here later and I will post it!!

Have a terrific Tuesday, wherever you are in the world.

Thanks for visiting. I love you guys. See ya!

Just in time for Christmas!!

I know you were giving up hope, gang, however….

My zazzle store has actually launched!!! And as luck would have it, they are having a Cyber Monday sale today, so everything is 50% off!!! (Although, I have to say, that the shipping charges over there are really insane. But anyway…)

I’m guessing you know TONS of people who want these playing cards for Christmas!! (Do NOT give them to anyone who has NOT already read this filthy dirty wonderful book!! They will NOT be amused and/or they will think you have your filthy mind seriously in the gutter…)

$5.43 plus shipping, only for Cyber Monday

And there are 14 coffee mugs to choose from!! Here are a couple:

Basically, any book I authored myself — meaning not the collections I edited — now has a companion coffee mug!!! I cannot imagine what could be better than that!!!

*********

Okay, that’s actually it for right now, gang.

If anything comes up later, I will be back!!

Enjoy your Monday, wherever you are in the world.

Thanks for visiting. I love you guys. See ya!!

Just some happy music for this happy Zazzle store Monday! Enjoy!!!

Stopping by for a quick update!

Life is still a little topsy-turvy here, gang. The weekend at the train station just about killed me. Wow, were we busy. It was really just off-the-charts. Everybody in town was looking for a reason to get the holiday spirit underway.

I am recovering from complete exhaustion and “collapse-ation” — a new word, which implies that I collapsed but managed to get back up!

We might get the Christmas decorations up around here today (!!), but I’m leaning toward seriously doubting it. (I have some houseguests here now indefinitely, and they are trying to get their lives settled in, too.)

Anyway. Here I am.

Phil did do a live Q &A on Friday. If you missed it, here is the replay (1hr 38 mins):

And, best news yet — Phil just posted that Trump will be back in office sooner than anticipated and that something happened since his last live.

Check Phil’s channel for updates!!

Nick Cave sent out a really beautiful Red Hand File the other day, regarding the death of Shane MacGowan. He said, in part:

Shane was blessed with an uncommon spirit of goodness and a deep sense of what is true, which was strangely amplified in his brokenness, his humanness. We can say of him most certainly, ‘he was beloved on the earth,’ and Sinéad too — truly beloved and greatly missed, both.”

You can read it in full here.

That’s it for now.

Stay safe, everybody, and have a good Sunday, wherever you are in the world.

My mood this morning. All things beautiful from my life in the 80s…

Mink DeVille – Just To Walk That Little Girl Home (1980)

Okay! Just Touching Base!

I might not be able to post here for the next couple days. I have some houseguests moving in later today, staying for an extended period.

And the next 2 nights at the train station are supposed to be very busy — holiday wine tastings and festive Christmas stuff, and also later hours.

Then, I think on Sunday, we will get all the Christmas decorations up around here.

And so I am guessing I will be sort of exhausted. We will see! (Funny, how one minute, you’re only 12, and the next minute, you’re actually 63…)

Although, I did get a great compliment yesterday! From a woman who is younger than me. She asked me how I keep my skin looking so young!! Wow. Thank you. It is a combination of a few things. One, I no longer wear makeup. Just mascara, once in a while. I drink a lot of filtered water. But mostly, I swear by these two things everyday!! They are awesome, seriously:

*********

Okay.

I really only saw one thing that interested me today.

From sputnik_africa:

“🌍 What is Common African Position on Asset Recovery Adopted by African Union?

On Friday, the African Union reportedly adopted the Common Africa Position on Asset Recovery (CAPAR) aimed at returning assets to the continent.

Sputnik Africa explains the nature of the mechanism, the steps it envisages, and why it is crucial for the continent’s development.

It is now possible for stolen money from Africa and stashed in the foreign banks to be recovered,” Charity Nchimunya, the executive secretary of the AU Advisory Board Against Corruption, said.”

[full details here]

************

That’s really interesting, isn’t it, gang?

It doesn’t mean that there wasn’t lots more “news” out there today, it just means that this item was the only thing that struck me as really saying something concrete.

************

Okay.

Phil did not do his livestream yesterday. He has no date set for when he will do it, which only means that a lot is going on behind the scenes, as usual. So we just have to sit tight.

************

That is it. I gotta get stuff done around here!!

Enjoy your Friday, wherever you are in the world.

Thanks for visiting.

I love you guys. See ya!

***********

More beautiful stuff from The Pogues that I listened to a hundred times while driving to work yesterday, feeling really sort of wistful and sad, gang. Where the hell did it all go? It was such a hard life back then, but we were so fucking ALIVE. Anyway, listen. Enjoy. Take care of yourselves out there.

“Dirty Old Town,” 1985. From Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash.

RIP, Shane

I am so saddened to hear that Shane MacGowan died today. If you don’t know who he was, he became famous in the early 1980s, with his amazing band, The Pogues, but even in years of ill health, he continued to be really creative.

What an amazing amount of joy he brought me when his music first came into my life, back in that little hellhole apartment on E.12th Street in NYC, gang. Wow. I will never forget it.

His wife, Victoria Clarke, posted a very dear and heartbreaking farewell to Shane on Instagram this morning:

*********

I don’t have much other news today.

I found this interesting. An update on Australia, among other topics —

Charlie Ward and Riccardo Bosi – THE WORLD WIDE FIGHT ACROSS THE GLOBE (1 hr):

**********

Phil will be live today at 5PM eastern. He was not able to do the livestream yesterday.

**********

I found this interesting —

From UKR LEAKS:

Russia has won this war, and there is no way we can change this outcome

This was stated by former US intelligence officer Scott Ritter. According to him, Western countries already recognize this and actively call for negotiations.

This means that everything the EU and NATO said about this conflict turned out to be a lie — an outright lie,” he says.”

[Oh, and PS: I’ve been trying to tell them that for, what, 2 years already??]

************

Okay, that’s it for now. I’m heading back to the train station for the next few nights, as the Christmas season officially begins.

Have a good Thursday, wherever you are in the world, gang.

Thanks for visiting. I love you guys. See ya!

“Sally MacLennane”

Well Jimmy played harmonica in the pub where I was born
He played it from the night time to the peaceful early morn
He soothed the souls of psychos and the men who had the horn
And they all looked very happy in the morning

Now Jimmy didn’t like his place in this world of ours
Where the elephant man broke strong men’s necks
When he’d had too many Powers
So sad to see the grieving of the people that he’s leaving
And he took the road for God knows in the morning

We walked him to the station in the rain
We kissed him as we put him on the train
And we sang him a song of times long gone
Though we knew that we’d be seeing him again
(Far away) sad to say I must be on my way
So buy me beer and whiskey ’cause I’m going far away (far away)
I’d like to think of me returning when I can
To the greatest little boozer and to Sally MacLennane

The years passed by the times had changed I grew to be a man
I learned to love the virtues of sweet Sally MacLennane
I took the jeers and drank the beers and crawled back home at dawn
And ended up a barman in the morning

I played the pump and took the hump and watered whiskey down
I talked of whores and horses to the men who drank the brown
I heard them say that Jimmy’s making money far away
And some people left for heaven without warning

We walked him to the station in the rain
We kissed him as we put him on the train
And we sang him a song of times long gone
Though we knew that we’d be seeing him again
(Far away) sad to say I must be on my way
So buy me beer and whiskey ’cause I’m going far away (far away)
I’d like to think of me returning when I can
To the greatest little boozer and to Sally MacLennane

When Jimmy came back home he was surprised that they were gone
He asked me all the details of the train that they went on
Some people they are scared to croak but Jimmy drank until he choked
And he took the road for heaven in the morning

We walked him to the station in the rain
We kissed him as we put him on the train
And we sang him a song of times long gone
Though we knew that we’d be seeing him again
(Far away) sad to say I must be on my way
So buy me beer and whiskey ’cause I’m going far away (far away)
I’d like to think of me returning when I can
To the greatest little boozer and to Sally MacLennane
