I Sure Hope I’m Not the First to Tell You This…

But the fog of war is seriously upon us.

(If you’re new to the term, it is loosely defined as: the uncertainty in situational awareness experienced by participants in military operations. The term seeks to capture the uncertainty regarding one’s own capability, adversary capability, and adversary intent during an engagement, operation, or campaign. )

For the most part, the war is an infowar of great magnitude — Information vs. Disinformation. But I also believe that a few people have already been killed.  (El* ct *on fr* ud and C* VID are at the tip of that iceberg, but there is so much underneath it, you’d want to just shoot yourself to turn it all off.) (For instance, if you’ve never done it before, get on a secure vpn and look up the term a  r  k a  n  c i  d  e…)

And our adversaries in the infowar are the D **p St* te, the e  u, S* r *s, the C * P, big t*ch, b* g m* dia, and s* cial m* dia. (You can also throw in I r *n, and R * ss *a, but it seems we are always in an infowar with both of them.)

I bring this up now because: a.) I’m exhausted; and b.) what happened in Nashville is so obviously not what it seems.

There is video footage clearly showing the blast occurred across the street from where the RV was parked. That, in turn, seems to have ignited the RV, as well. But the initial blast seems to have come from under the ground. And there is also video footage that could be interpreted as some sort of missile hitting the RV and detonating it, but that one seems like a bit of a long shot — the video, I mean. Not necessarily the idea itself.

I heard one comment online (in the video below, I think) that was the most honest and accurate thing I’ve heard in months. And that comment was: “Funny how quick the f   b   i was to jump on the explosion in Nashville but they still haven’t done anything about the massive evidence of widespread v* t* r fr*ud.”

Sad but seemingly so true. Unless that, too, is disinformation.

A t and t , the n s a, and G A do seem to play a part in this explosion, from what I can tell. And the gun fire before the explosion, and the public address system warning people to seek safety for at least 20 minutes before the blast, also seem to be pointing at something beyond just one lone patsy that the f  b  i wants to “question.” (An th* ny Qu * nn W* rr*n)

So we are right back to not having a clue who to believe, but my money, as always (well, I use that term figuratively because the fake p* nd* m*c did away with all my money). However, my money is never on the f  b  i being the ones to listen to anymore.

They are part of the shiny objects we are always being asked to focus on, while the information we really need is being un-draped before us in the opposite direction.

As luck would have it, I spent all of yesterday going over every single file in that w* k i le *ks data d* mp from several days ago.

If you’d like to depress yourself for a few hours, then by all means go ahead and look at all those files. Of course, many were in German, and some were in languages that I didn’t even recognize. Still, a whole lot are in English. And some are even simply exceedingly clear JPEGS (i.e. photos that clearly show a young blonde woman was tortured to death. That’s gonna cheer up your holiday weekend, for sure. I cannot even imagine her poor parents having to claim her body.) (That happened over a decade ago.)

There are a lot of things in this world that are truly horrific, truly sad, but that I don’t have enough room inside me to allow myself to care about. People are always going to do horrific things, and you rarely know who you can trust, and it’s even more rare when you can actually trust some sort of “institution”. Certain things, I can’t even pretend to give credence to. (i.e., the f  b  i saying that one lone patsy — excuse me — individual detonated his RV in Nashville on Christmas morning, and that there had already been two complaints against this guy that the bureau ignored….)

What I care about is preserving the U S  C* n st* t* t*on. And the closer we get to both Jan 6 th and then Jan 2 0 th, the worse the disinformation on all sides is getting. Because it actually is the fog of war.

Too many people all over this country (and even abroad) are scrambling to save their skins (i.e. prison and seizure of all their assets) and the only way that can happen is to keep Tr  ** p out of the W H. And that would literally mean we would cease being a Constitutional Republic and become a Socialist satellite of someone else. The level of desperation out there to get Tr ** p is truly feeling off-the-charts insane.

And while I would hope that as many of you who can get to D C on the 6 th are actually going to do so, I would stress that you still need to be careful.

But what everyone is advising, beyond the 6 th itself, is to stay away from large crowds, wherever you live in the U S. The violence expected from the ( D **p S t * te’s insurgency arm) (aka A n t* f*) will likely be pretty horrible. Don’t go into the fray of it unless that’s the kind of person you are and you can deal with it and, I’m guessing, you’re well armed in some way.

(I’m still thinking that the military is going to be involved in this in some way, gang. But I guess we’ll see.)

Okay, so the new rumor is that A d * m Sc h * ff was not arrested by the police at LAX, but is in federal custody.

He doesn’t seem to have come out online anywhere over the last few days, saying the rumors are false…

And I would caution anyone about being too hasty to believe that v  p  P * nc* is actually a traitor. I’m thinking “fog of war,” gang. Fog of war.

Well, all righty, folks. It was 10 degrees Fahrenheit when I awoke this morning, but it is supposed to get up to the mid-40s today, so the snow & ice are gonna melt, which means there is no need to worry about shoveling the sidewalk, or scraping the ice off my car… It will all happen the natural way! Yay!!

So I’m going to stay indoors for the 4th day in a row here. Relax. Do some writing. Do some cooking. Do some yoga. And, you know, try to focus on what’s good in the world.

Thanks for visiting, gang. I love you guys. See ya.

“The Boy In The Bubble”

It was a slow day
And the sun was beating
On the soldiers by the side of the road
There was a bright light
A shattering of shop windows
The bomb in the baby carriage
Was wired to the radio

These are the days of miracle and wonder
This is the long distance call
The way the camera follows us in slo-mo
The way we look to us all
The way we look to a distant constellation
That’s dying in a corner of the sky
These are the days of miracle and wonder
And don’t cry baby, don’t cry
Don’t cry

It was a dry wind
And it swept across the desert
And it curled into the circle of birth
And the dead sand
Falling on the children
The mothers and the fathers
And the automatic earth
These are the days of miracle and wonder
This is the long distance call
The way the camera follows us in slo-mo
The way we look to us all
The way we look to a distant constellation
That’s dying in a corner of the sky
These are the days of miracle and wonder
And don’t cry baby, don’t cry
Don’t cry

It’s a turn-around jump shot
It’s everybody jump start
It’s every generation throws a hero up the pop charts
Medicine is magical and magical is art
The Boy in the Bubble
And the baby with the baboon heart

And I believe
These are the days of lasers in the jungle
Lasers in the jungle somewhere
Staccato signals of constant information
A loose affiliation of millionaires
And billionaires and baby
These are the days of miracle and wonder
This is the long distance call
The way the camera follows us in slo-mo
The way we look to us all
The way we look to a distant constellation
That’s dying in a corner of the sky
These are the days of miracle and wonder
And don’t cry baby, don’t cry
Don’t cry

Goodness! What’s Not To Love??!!

I’m of course talking about that illustration above, Sous La Glace (“Under the Ice”).

A mermaid under the ice, looking up the skirts of the girls who are ice-skating above her — and the best part of all? The mermaid is smoking  a cigarette underwater.

I just fucking love that!!

Anyway. Okay.

I had a lovely little Christmas. Even though I was all by myself.  I was truly blessed. I had food, and heat, and hot water, and healthy cats, and it snowed all day; so it was a very white Christmas.  And some Christmases, I have had none of those, or sometimes a combination of some of those and not some of the others, etc. So I know really well how to count my blessings.

I only wound up taking a partial break from politics yesterday because, as you likely know, there was a terrible explosion in Nashville early yesterday morning.  An RV was rigged out to be a bomb.  It was planted in front of an AT&T establishment of some kind that’s connected to the building where the  G A v* t* fr*ud investigation is going on (if I’m understanding that right) and so communications, cell phones, Internet, around that whole area went down. There were gun shots heard before the explosion. There was a PA announcement to everyone who lived in the area to immediately get out. Police running door to door, trying to get everyone out.  Then the RV exploded.

One person seems to be dead (they found human remains). 3 were injured.

And then there was also some sort of alleged cyber attack on a US Air Force base (but I can’t find any news reports that substantiate the cyber thing).

In fact, there are a number of rumors going around.

  •  L*n W**d’s tw ** ts getting extremely “crazy”.
  • Ad* m Sch*  f f getting arrested at LAX (hopefully, that is foreshadowing, because the rumors connected to that guy are so horrific that I won’t post them in detail here. Just that a man & his wife were tortured by the f b i and are now in witness protection; a male child raped & murdered and all on tape; a famous writer/TV personality in the hotel room next door who tried to summon for help but who ended up “committing suicide” instead.)

But for right now, it’s just rumors of an arrest.

And it’s more and more RINOS exposing their true allegiance all over the place. Etc., etc.  (We really, really do need a viable third party in this country, gang. One that we can all actually join and vote for…)

In short, just some serious bad news about how deeply corrupted this country has gotten.  (I’ve even heard rumors that the RV-bomb was a way to frighten people into staying indoors, since no one seems to give a fuck about a fake p* nd* m*c anymore.)

(And now F * uci is saying that 90% of the population needs to get vaccinated in order to get “herd immunity” against this terrible, terrible virus, that the average person only has a 99.997% chance of surviving, without even taking meds…)

And the pushback in the e u is getting off the charts, too, gang. I mean, honestly, how far down our throats are they going to try to push this fake p* nd* m*c? Which is why resorting to a potential blanket of RV- bombs actually does really scare me.

But all that said, I did listen to a couple of really great podcasts last night — after watching The Polar Express during my dinner. I just love that movie! The animation is just so great, and the story is so fun.

And when the train goes past my house here in Crazeysburg, it’s actually a lot like this!! (If you’d only come visit and sleep over, you’d find out for yourself!!!)

Anyway. I also spent some time working on Thug Luckless: Welcome to P-Town (the novel-in-progress). So I had a good day. And I’m expecting today to be a lot like yesterday, except that the snow appears to be all done snowing. We have a brisk 16 sunny degrees Fahrenheit here right now! So, no chance that the snow will melt today. Yay!!

And Nick Cave sent out a recorded Christmas (very short) poem, by way of Cave Things yesterday, but I think the only way you can hear it is on Instagram. It appears to be about his son and his wife, but I’m not 100% certain what it’s about, really.  But if you go on Instagram and search for Cave Things, you can hear it.

And the Pr* s* d*nt is asking you to contact your State legislators, and demand they do the right thing come January 6 th. If you don’t know how to contact them, you can find out who they are online. All you need to know is your own address. You can also find out which district you are in, and the whole nine yards. It’s not difficult to get an email address for your State senator and representative. (They are currently on break, but you can still email them right now.)

And, again, if the social media networks go down (which could include this blog, since it is part of g ** gl*), reliable “actual” news sources are:

Visit the links and bookmark them, that way you’ll be set in a media blackout. But don’t forget to use d*ck d*ck go and/or a vpn to search.

All righty. So here were the best videos from Christmas, folks. Listen Learn. Enjoy. And have a great Saturday, wherever you are in the world! Thanks for visiting.

Below: What it sounds like in our kitchen very early on Christmas morning!!!!

Great interview!! Don’t miss it!

Some very cool q questions. Worth thinking about!!

Gosh, That’s So Weird, Right?

I’m talking about that dreaded b r e  x  i t deadlock with the e u and now a simply terrible, fast-moving strain of the fake p* n d* m*c (yes, the very same one that most people have a 99.997% chance of surviving),  is forcing the people of the UK into yet another draconian l* ck d* wn just in time for Christmas (oh, and certain countries in the e u are now closing their borders to the U K because of that terrible, fast-moving strain of the fake p* n d* m*c — yes, the very same one that most people have a 99.997% chance of surviving).

Oh, and now, little kids in C A have the same thing!! Isn’t that the State where they are making great progress at booting out their insane dictator, oops, g* v*r n*r?

I’m just sayin’ — it’s just so weird. That darn virus, and all its many sudden shifts and swerves and permutations. Just so darn smart. Yes, a smart virus. It goes right where the D**p St* te and the N*w W* rld *r d*r tells it to go.

I’ve never seen anything like it. Perhaps a little Vitamin D3 could knock it out…

Oh, and that Relief Bill they finally passed here in America yesterday, that no less than 50 Republicans (and 3 Democrats) in the House  and 6 in the Senate voted against??  Gee, why’d they do that?? Here’s why:

    • […] Rep. Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.) said he voted against the bill because it included billions for foreign governments. [Yes, many, many far away As * an countries will benefit more from this Relief Bill than American citizens will. — Ed.]“We need every dollar here helping our citizens. Instead we are buying billions in food for foreigners while bread lines form across the U.S. and American businesses remain closed by our own government,” he said in a statement.

      […] Rep. Warren Davidson (R-Ohio) said the way the bill was introduced—hours before the votes—was part of a “dishonest process.”

      “I will continue to vote against any bills that essentially bankrupt America and urge the pr * sid *nt to veto any bill that spends trillions of dollars without a markup, debate, or the opportunity for other representatives to amend it,” he added in a statement. […]

This article below was great, gang. You should read it!

Study: Everyone Is Proud to Be American Except Progressive Activists (by Matt Palumbo)

    • A new study found that no matter how you break up America’s citizens into different groups, each and every one is proud to be an American…. except for progressive activists. (In more surprising news, the study also found that 2+2=4 and confirmed that the sky is blue).
    • […] The study found that despite the portrait of division painted by the media, there is common ground among Americans that creates a shared sense of identity, and most have a pride in that American identity.
    • […] While progressive activists were the only group to not have pride in being American, the study found that only 8% of Americans fall into the “progressive activist” category ideologically.
    • […] In response to the statement “If I could choose to live anywhere in the world, I would still pick America,” progressive activists are the only group where the majority would rather live elsewhere (if only they would!).
    • Amusingly the percent of people who would remain in America if given the choice to leave is greater than the percent who say they’re proud to be American. So even a chunk of those who say they’re not proud to be American wouldn’t live anywhere else.
    • […] a majority of every demographic said they feel like they belong in America:

All right, folks. The videos below are both educational, as well as disturbing, but give them a listen. Forewarned is fore-armed, right? (And if you like these videos, gang, please go and subscribe to them. A couple are still on Y* u T* b* but most are easily found on rumble dot com. Go and support them!)

Okay. Thanks for visiting. I love you guys.

Below are 17 eye-opening  minutes: “The [**] is now pushing forward with their Great R*s et plan. Those countries that are not going along with their agenda are being punished.” (For instance, U K and U S A)

The facts are closing in: “The [**]/MSM are now trapped by the Con st* t* tion, the law of the land. The el * ct * on results are not adding up, if we take all registered voters there are 13 million MORE votes than registered voters.”  Ooops!!! How’d that happen??!! It’s just so weird, right??

If you aren’t already aware of the story below, spend 13 minutes learning about it now. It will make you want to spit.

This is that great interview, Q & A  that Iwatched on Sunday afternoon and posted about yesterday.

This is an investment of your time, but you will learn all you need to know about the upcoming el*ct*ral vote/C*n st* t*tion process.

Still Waiting!!

Well, our little visitor has not come (yet). (See post about George from Saturday.)

Apparently the mom is trying to convince the dad that he does want a cat in the house! We’re gonna see how that goes. So, depending on whether or not the dad suddenly realizes that he loves cats, George may or may not be coming to live with us!

We shall see!

Meanwhile, Christmas is getting ever closer. And what an intensely strange Christmas it is, gang. But overall, I’m happy.

Yesterday (I guess after reading my blog) the Pr*s*d*nt tw ** t*d that martial law is fake news. (But, I mean, why would he confirm something like that??) (Okay, I won’t add to the martial law rumor mill…)

He also tw ** t*d that we’re also supposed to go to DC on January 6th. And he added that it will be ‘wild.’ YES — he used quotes.  (He might have even capitalized it, I can’t remember right now.)

Why the quote marks? What the heck?? And that’s the “choosing of the el*ctor*l votes” day in C*n gr*ss. Even if I could afford enough gasoline to get to DC and back, or even afford a motel room at this point (gone are those heady not-so-long-ago days when I could jump into the Honda and drive to NYC, or even hop on a plane and fly out to LA. Or to London or Paris, for that matter.). Anyway. I can’t afford to go to DC right now. But even if I could — DC is truly just a hot bed of Ant*f* violence. It seems to be that January 6th will be off-the-charts insane in DC. So I’m just gonna watch it online.

However, that said. the Pr*s*d*nt wants you to go to DC on January 6th. Because it will be ‘wild.’

Okay. Well.

I watched a jaw-dropping interview online yesterday afternoon with Attorney L*n W**d. (On NTD.) (If I’m not mistaken, NTD owns the Ep*ch Times.) It was an intense interview. At an “undisclosed” location. It was basically a Q& A with W**d and his answers were unbelievably candid.

One of the things he advised for all of us was civil disobedience. He told us to stop wearing m*sks. To open up our businesses again. To defy these insane l*ck d*wns. To stand up for our rights to free speech, and to assemble (and to bear arms).

Places — even entire towns– in America are starting to do just that — civil disobedience. My favorite headline yesterday was over at the Post Millennial.

    • NY Restaurants Ban Governor C*omo: “He can eat at some sh*tty restaurant outside of Albany”
    • Struggling restaurants in New York City have banded together to enact a ban against New York G*v. An dr*w C* omo from dining at their premises following his coronavirus lockdown measures in the city.

      “He can eat at some sh*tty roadside diner outside of Albany but he will not be served anywhere in NY City, known universally as the world’s greatest dining destination! If he has to use the restroom he can go pee on my street-corner,” said bar owner Larry B**rd, reported the Coney Island Blog.

    • Numerous members of the F B group “NYC Restaurants Open,” which is mainly made up of restaurant and bar owners, have come out in support of a lifetime order banning C* omo from being served at all New York City establishments.

      “Completely schizophrenic behavior! How are they coming up with these rules is beyond any logical reasoning,” […]

[full article is here]

I also liked this (unrelated) article from The Bl*ze:

    • The word “Latinx,” which is nearly a “term used exclusively within the United States,” has been rejected by the vast majority of actual Latinos. A 2019 poll found that a whopping 98% of Latinos do not identify with the Latinx term. Of those surveyed, 44% preferred to be called “Hispanic,” followed by 24% who would like to be classified as “Latino/Latina.”

      A 2020 Pew Research survey found that only 23% of Hispanics had even heard of the term “Latinx,” and a minuscule 3% said they used the word to describe themselves. […]

[full article here]

And in another vein:

    • Fl*nn: Foreign Intelligence Agencies Were Monitoring U S El* ct *on, Willing to Provide Information to Tr**p

    • “We have evidence now of foreign countries […] were watching the attacks on our election system, our election process, on the 3rd of November,” Fl * nn told F *x Business on Friday. “So we now have that evidence and we received that today,” he said.

[full article here –includes link to video interview]

So, you’ll recall that I posted weeks ago, that the Pr *s *dent of Brazil was aware of the extensive  el*ct *on fr* ud here in the U S. Other countries are coming forward now, too — with intelligence reports.

This means that foreign countries are better informed about what’s going on here in the U S than approximately 50% of our own country.  (But rest assured, that information divide is being done on purpose, folks.)

(A quick FYI — if you leave comments for me re: politics, I do reply, but the comments/replies only stay visible for about 20 minutes and then are deleted.)

Okay, well. There was just a ton of news-related stuff yesterday, gang. I cannot possibly post it all here. Things are getting decidedly intense here in the U S. I’ve posted just a small handful of things below. But always remember you can check online news sources throughout the day: B*n g* n* R* port, and the Ep*ch Times update constantly.

Thanks for visiting, gang. Happy Winter Solstice!! And have a great Monday. Don’t forget that tonight is the night that Jupiter and Saturn have that conjunction. I think you look at the southwest area of the sky (in the U S, anyway).  Okay, I love you guys.

Watch this 1-minute video below before they block it. It is so true. You will love it!

The last 15 minutes of the video below includes an educational video about everything you’re not being shown on mainstream media and how it is splitting the country in half:

My favorite quick update on daily politics and military:

Steve C* rt*s spoke with Host, Eric Gr** tens, on “Actionable Intelligence” stating why a special prosecutor needs to be appointed to investigate B* d en ‘s ties to C h* n *.

At Long Last, A Visitor is Coming!!

Well, we shall see, gang. But tomorrow evening (Sunday),  a young guy named George is supposed to be coming to live with us!!

This is not a photo of George, but it gives you a hint of what George looks like:

Photo Of Black And Brown Cat Paw Picture. Image: 109920170

George is a rescued house cat, who was abused and abandoned and neglected, and has one bad eye and lots of anxiety, but we’re hoping to give him a loving home. The young girl who was sweet enough to rescue him and take him to a vet and get him fixed up, has a dad who doesn’t want cats in the house.

And since I am a person who doesn’t want a house without cats, George might be a good fit. We’re going to find out.

Sadly, George doesn’t have a job (I don’t think he even has any marketable skills) so he won’t be contributing to the household financially, but he has a reputation for being very loving when he is feeling safe. So that’s good enough for us, and we will simply try to make the food go far enough to feed one more tiny little mouth.

Okay!

There was a cool article in Interview Magazine, about Nick Cave and his recently launched, somewhat controversial Cave Things.

Yesterday, I got the groceries in town and tried to get enough to last me until the week after Christmas, so that hopefully, I won’t have to deal with the craziness of the grocery store at Christmastime (it was already crazy enough there yesterday). And of course, the moment I got back from town, I realized I’d forgotten to buy one thing that I hadn’t added on to my shopping list because I’d thought to myself as I was heading out the door: No way am I gonna forget to buy that! But, in fact, I did forget to buy it. But here’s hoping I can just fucking deal with it. I’m not going to drive another 50 miles just to get one stupid thing… Lordy!

It’s going to be a quiet Christmas, since my birth mom won’t be here this year. But we’ll have George! I’m sure it will be very cozy, merry, and nice.

Okay.

Things seem to be going in two equal directions in this fair land of ours: The extreme v*t* fr*ud will either be handled legally, in the U S S*pr*me Court, or by some sort of martial law stemming from the E O on or after Christmas Eve.

I, personally, am feeling it’s gonna go in the direction of the military in some way. Perhaps not all-out martial law. But we shall see.

If you’re following the actual news, and not the Disinformation Station, you are no doubt noticing that the amount of jaw-dropping leaks happening now just keep on multiplying and multiplying. You must listen to D*n B*n g* n*’s show from yesterday, below. Do not miss it. Finally — the truth is not only “leaking” out, it is a fucking tidal wave… It is really just kind of unbelievable. You must listen to it.

All righty. I’m gonna let you listen to last night’s round up, without going on & on about it here on the blog this morning. I’m leaving you with my drinking-my-coffee-in-the-dark-while-lying-in-bed music from this morning!! Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, “Are You the One that I’ve Been Waiting For?” from The Boatman’s Call (1997). Enjoy! And thanks for visiting, gang. I love you guys. See ya!

This will make you sick but you’ve gotta listen to it, gang:

My new favorite way to quickly catch up on the day’s events before the night begins:

Don’t miss this one, either, folks! The shorter X* 2 R* p*rt:  “The Governors and Mayors are now trapped, they were expecting a bailout if they followed instructions in keeping their cities and towns locked down, and now they are struggling….”  (This would feel good if it weren’t for all those poor people whose lives they have crushed.)

Always eye-opening! This is how I end every evening now:

Could it Get More Unmanageable??

Jumping Jiminy, gang!

First of all, for some weird, inexplicable reason, I keep thinking that yesterday was Sunday and so today must be Monday, right? The start of another overwhelming week of politics and c*up d’*tats and fake p*nd*m*cs…

But every time I realize that, no, it’s actually Friday, I feel like everything should just calm right down and be okay. Because there’s just something about the idea of Friday that always feels like: here comes the calm after the storm.

And yet…

What the fuck is going on with the cyber s* curity br ** ch? It sounds like all-out war and yet the only people who are sending out seriously alarming alarms about it are the folks at Fox News.

But supposedly, S* l* r W*nds’ back door had the most complicated password known to man: S * l *r W *n ds 123. WTF was up with that? Obviously, everybody knew…

There are the military podcasts saying that this br ** ch is the worst thing that has ever happened between the US and R * s s **

But then the q podcasts are cheerfully saying, sit tight P* tr *ots, this is just the calm before the st* rm…

Which makes me then wonder, is this another one of those keenly timed national security leaks? Because it sure does make B* den and O b *m * look really bad… For instance, trait *rs, tre * son, or at the very least inexplicable ineptitude.

But it makes me feel like I really am going to go down with this ship. Knock out my electricity and my house will freeze up and explode in some sort of ice geyser… There is no way I can possibly afford a generator right now. The fake p* n d*m *c wiped me out.

And then the outages online continue. First it was Y* u t* b* and g ** gl*, then g m a i l twice, then a big chunk of the back end of word p r e s s. All in less than a week.

And then I got contacted online, twice on the phone, and one text — all by one fake company, all within a matter of moments yesterday. As near as I could tell, they were out of H* ng K * ng, a money laundering scheme. I didn’t reply or answer the phone, but that’s as near as I could glean from a cursory search on a vpn.

And all this while the back end of  my blog was down. And so I thought: Oh crap. How quickly they pinpoint you, right? Is all this because  of what I posted about J*mm * L* i?

It is so easy to get super paranoid…

Then the staffer leak about US S*pr *me Court J* dge R* berts perhaps being a victim of blackmail and so that is why he’s screaming and fucking everything up…

Then the news that the man who was somehow involved in reporting the suspicious death (or somehow involved in the recent suspicious death) of Gov. K * mp’s daughter’s boyfriend — that guy just “committed suicide.”

Suspicious death.  Then suspicious suicide. And K* mp did that 180 in G A on a vote audit in the space of about 24 hours after his daughter’s boyfriend’s suspicious car crash…

Plus, I’d forgotten to post here that there is reason to believe that all these Judges in the lower courts are throwing out the legal cases not because the Judges are corrupt, but because their lives and the lives of their families are being threatened.

So that’s pretty horrible.

Okay, so anyway.  I’ve just been alerted that s* cial m* dia is now going wonky again (Instagram this time). Let me post this in case everything goes out.

I will let you try to sort out all the politics from yesterday.  I love you guys. See ya.

A great way to get a quick update on military and daily politics each night:

The usual awesomeness:

The usual jaw dropping stuff:

Reasons to hope:

Snow!!!!

It has arrived. An actual snow storm that accumulated quite a big bit!!

It was so lovely here last night and first thing this morning, before the sun was even up.

Here is a wistful comparison.

The hydrangeas at the height of summer, and how the bush looked this morning!

It’s sometimes hard to believe it’s the same plant. But it always comes back…

Okay, gang.

Yesterday was quite a big news day. Much of it kind of depressing, as more and more information comes to light.

More and more ironically-timed “leaks.” All of it is below.

One of the more promising things is that all those swing States that were unbelievably loaded with v* t*r fr* ud have now certified their fraudulent  b* ll ots and are now officially on record as being part of the c * up.

I wouldn’t want to be any one of them for anything in the world.

And Z * ck *r b*rg? What do you suppose the inside of his stomach looks like right now? $500 million and documents to prove he was influencing the el * ct* on in worse ways than initially surmised…

Funny how, now, all of the sudden, t w * tt *r is reversing their recent c*n c* r ship decisions… A little late. (I get the distinct impression that a heck of a lot of people are going to prison.)

And on Christmas Eve, no less. (upcoming E O)

Of course, I could be wrong about that. But everything is just getting crazier and crazier — Bill B* rr is not “resigning” but “stepping down” on Christmas Eve to spend Christmas with his family??  Being replaced by prosecutors with military experience and experience with the death penalty??

Nothing says “Merry Christmas” quite like that, gang. WTF, right??!!

And speaking of Orwell’s 1984 (I wasn’t speaking of it just then, but in a sense, I am always speaking of it nowadays): how about that certain Lincoln High School in San Francisco, trying to get renamed because Abraham Lincoln didn’t do enough for the lives of black people…

Holy fucking McMoly.  (Hopefully, you already have a ring in your nose because it’s gonna be so  much easier for them to lead you around by it.)

Remember what the main guy in 1984 does for a living?? He constantly rewrites history so that no one ever knows what really happened in the past…

If you think it’s annoying that I keep telling you to either read or re-read 1984, this is why, gang. It is all happening right in front of our very eyes.

But we still have time to douse everyone in gasoline and set them on fire, burn baby burn!!oops! I meant to say: we still have time to change all this!

Why the Bronx burned

Yes.

That’s what I did, indeed, mean to say.

All right. Well, so far it’s a peaceful morning here in the Hinterlands (where 99.9% of the people don’t wear m* sks, do carry guns and voted for Tr** p). Snow everywhere here. The laundry is almost done. And I’m getting ready to make another pot of soup!! Yay!! Perfect weather for that. And then I will do a little bit of writing. So it should be a nice day, all things considered.

Please, people. If you live in Airstrip One (NYC), do not give in. If you choose to take the vaccine, there is no way that it takes 8 or 9 months to be truly effective; and that you still have to wear a mask and/or stay at home.  Turn off the fucking mainstream news. Stop buying the NY Times. They truly are the pathway to Orwell’s Big Brother. They are purposely trying to break your spirit, and to bankrupt you, and to dis-inform you.

Hospitals across the US are nowhere near full capacity.  There are no infected dead bodies piling up in the streets. There is no p* nd* m*c. There are only m* sks to muzzle us and l* ckd* wns to keep us from freely comparing notes about all of it with our friends and families.

But remember this all-important fact:

    • New York’s indoor dining ban isn’t stopping Gov. Andr *w Cu* mo from filling a campaign war chest or celebrating his birthday in style. [article here]
    • Cuomo is celebrating his 63rd birthday after an order forcing New York City restaurants to close for in-person dining: High rollers who raise or donate $10,000 will get a code to join a half-hour pre-party Dec. 17, along with “flex tickets” that friends can use to join the main reception later on. [full article and video]

AND, of course, THIS:

Okay, folks. It’s all true. It’s all horrific. It all has to stop.

Thanks for visiting, gang. Have a good Thursday, if at all possible. I love you guys, see ya.

Guess who else is in bed with you-know-who??

Awesome stuff happened yesterday, gang. A brief recap:

This will make you absolutely sick. But still watch it anyway:

Holy McMoly. It’s always worse than we expected:

Watch this again and ask yourselves: How are these people managing to not be in prison?? I mean, for real.

Reasons to Celebrate!!

Don’t quote me yet, but it looks like Nick Cave and Warren Ellis (and presumably the other Bad Seeds) might have a Grinderman 3 album in the works right now!!!

Yes, even as I type!!

Grinderman, aka testosterone on speedballs, (well, okay, they’re only known as that by me, but still…) have made some truly awesome songs. So I am seriously excited by the prospects of round 3.

Yay!!

I will keep you posted, or you can keep me posted, as the case may be!!

I am getting a really late start here this morning, because I am in the process of transferring all my g mails to the new secure server and it turns out that it is not exactly an intuitive process. But it is now occurring.

In case you weren’t aware, g m a i l had yet another suspicious outage during the night! This makes 2, not counting the outage of Y* u t* b* and g* * gl* from Sunday night. So I am just getting worried, gang. And wanted all my old emails to be safe.

The outages could be a trial-run for the upcoming social m* d*a blackout (anticipated, at least). Or it could be white h*t h* ckers hacking their way in, but either way, best to just move to a safer corner of the online galaxy until the c* up has c o u p ‘ed itself out…

All righty. Since my morning is just about gone here (!!), I must scoot. I hope you have a good Wednesday, wherever you are in the world. Don’t forget the solar storm is supposed to begin today!! If you start getting wonky satellite reception and/or weirdly-acting electronics, keep it in mind. (And if night suddenly falls on the Earth for 6 days, it’s not the Devil — the solar storm is why…)

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

This one requires a strong stomach, gang. (I may never go back to LA)

Wow. Yesterday had almost too much news. But a lot of it — assuming you’re getting the actual news — was very promising indeed.

WI, MI, AZ all had very, very interesting v*t* fr*ud -related news.

A really great, brief and succinct overview is here:

And other things are also brewing…

First off, I want to mention 2 important things that are celestially- based!

On the 21st, Saturn and Jupiter are supposed to align for the first time in something like 2000 years. Well, a really long time. People say this will create a truly magnificent bright “star” in the sky.  Other people are saying that this occurrence could be what the 3 Wise Men saw when Jesus was born. (Although, whether or not you believe anyone at all, besides Jesus’ family, knew he was being born when he was born, and/or whether or not you adhere to Jesus’ traditional birth date (in January), or you believe that Christmas Day was his birth date — whichever scenarios you believe could, of course, influence what you believe about stars and Wise Men, etc., today!)

Anyway. It is supposedly going to be quite a breathtaking sight, with or without frankincense, myrrh, barns, and babies.

However, seeing it might hinge on how much dust is in the sky that night…

Most of you probably know that from December 16th through December 21st, we are supposed to be having very intense solar storms. I believe NASA describes them as hurricane-strength storms, up there in outer space. Causing all sorts of debris and dust to block out most of the sun. Maybe even blocking as much as 90% of it — making it feel almost dark outside for 6 days.

I heard one report that said NASA is suggesting you have enough food and water at home, in case it is hazardous to go out. But I have no clue if that is factual or not. It could just be one of those “better safe than sorry” things.  They are also saying it could effect our electronics, our satellite reception, and all that.

Which is where it gets really interesting.

You’ll want to listen to the (longer) X*2 R* p*rt from last night, because he goes into detail about how the D** p St* te could use the solar storms as a way to pretend that all banking systems are down and compromised in some way, and use that as their new excuse for the great r*set, since the fake p* d* m*c is losing steam all over the world.

They need a new crisis in order to tank the economy. You’ll want to listen to how he explains it. It will be really interesting if we do indeed start hearing that the “banks went down”…

The other truly interesting thing is that the report for the E O from 9 1 2 1 8, is due Friday — while the solar storms will be allegedly underway.  A good time for that full-on social m* dia blackout, don’t you think??? The E O report. Solar storms.

However, also in last night’s X*2 R* p*rt, he believes the E O report has already been turned in and that this is why we are getting so many extremely interesting (or alarming — it depends on your take on all this) leaks about security problems, with full-color photos of who’s involved.  Just to name a few:

    • H* nt*r B* den ‘s huge problem with that laptop
    • emails where he specifically talks about his dad being in on all of it
    • the ever popular F*ng F*ng
    • then the awesome database leak detailing just how many C * P agents have infiltrated big business and governments around the world — especially here in the U S
    • the data breach of S* l* r w*nds software and everything that the US Rangers uncovered in Austin T X

These are just from the past couple of days, gang. And each of them, on their own, is huge. All of them together — wow.

Anyway. I guess — don’t be surprised if truly astonishing shit starts hitting the fan between, like, right now, and Christmas Eve (the next E O goes into effect 1 2 2 4 2 0).

Okay, on another one of my favorite topics.

The vaccine is now available in the U S. Whether or not you want to take it is up to you. But the fear – factor of the fake p* d* m*c can now subside. No reason to fear. With or without a vaccine, the CDC clearly states that the average person has a 99.97% survival rate. And there are cures for the virus. Problem solved. In record time, p*n d*m*c-wise.

Oh wait — how come the Mayor of Airstrip One is now calling for stricter l*ck d*wns?? How come Bill G*tes thinks we’ll be in l*ck d*wn through 2022???!!

Vaccine. Cure. Astoundingly high survival rate… Equals stricter L*ck dwns?

Remember Orwell’s math equation from 1984, folks: 2 + 2 = 5

And doooooon’t you forget it!!!!

And if you heard the report on the breakdown of the CDC stats on the U S death toll over the last 5 years, you will have already noted that in 2020, we actually had somewhat fewer deaths in the U S  than in the previous 4 years…

Overall, approximately 2,800,000 people die in the U S every year, from all sorts of things. And 2020 was no different, and in fact, it was a little less. (This is based on public CDC stats.) (I can’t help but wonder where it was, exactly, that the virus was killing people in record numbers…)

(What’s truly enraging are those numbers out of Italy, gang. Where they now estimate that something like 164 people under age 40, who had no other medical complications, died strictly from C* VID, with no co-morbidities (I’m estimating that number, gang, but it was really minuscule, although it was certainly still sad for the families of those people who died). Anyway. They fucking put Italy through hell for that. And then started more l* ckd*wn nonsense in the fall.)

Okay. Well, in case you didn’t know, you can always visit The B*n g* n * R* p*rt for updated news, all day long. Also, The Ep * ch Times. (But to get the full news there, you have to pay something like $1.)

I bring those sites up because, since word press is owned by g** gl*, it could likely go down in the blackout. And so my blog will disappear…

Meanwhile, on we go… Thanks for visiting, gang. Have a terrific Tuesday, wherever you are in the world. I love you guys, see ya.

Some Awesome Memories!!

Today is the 4th anniversary of Bunny’s passing — she was such a sweet cat. I swear that I still miss her every day.

I went looking for some old photos of her to post to the blog, and I serendipitously (which I don’t think is actually a word) discovered a bunch of photos that I forgot I had.

So it’s Memory Day again, here in Marilyn’s Room!!

First of all, I found a wonderful photo of Paul at Christmas, 1996. Paul was my best friend who died, whom I blogged about yesterday.

Paul at Christmas, 1996

He was already really sick here, but you can see that even while he was dying, he was just such a good-natured human being.

Here are two photos of Bunny right after I rescued her and her brother, Buster, from a NYC cat shelter in Times Square. They were a few months old already when I adopted them. Bunny is the larger cat, Buster, was the grey and white cat. I loved both of them so much, it was almost unbelievable.

Bunny and Buster on the dining room table on West End Avenue, NYC.

 

Wayne was not happy that I adopted two cats to replace Kitty after she died. But the rescue place wanted me to have this brother & sister pair, even though I had gone in to adopt a different cat. They insisted that I have these two instead and they wound up being such a joy to me.

Buster & Bunny in the nursery.

When Wayne and I thought we were having a baby, we decorated the nursery.  But no babies came, so it eventually turned into my office. So my office on West End Avenue was half-nursery. This is right after Bunny & Buster were adopted.

Our house from 1964-1966

 

I could not believe I found this photo!! This is the house my family lived in from 1964-1966, in Cleveland. I took the photo decades after we lived there, but this was our house! I have so many memories from this house. I could write an entire book just about that. I found out years later that both of my parents disliked this house, but my dad bought it because it was really close to the school — just down the block. And both me and my older brother started school when we lived here.

The house Mikey Rivera and I lived in together.

I did not even remember that I had this photo!! Mikey Rivera and I were going to buy this house in Easton, Pennsylvania. It was owned by a priest who rented it out. We were “renting to own” when my mom got sick and we wound up moving back to Ohio. We lived in it for 6 months.

My office in that house.

This was my office in that house. The house was really old — well over 100 years old. I edited a couple of anthologies in this office and wrote a few short stories, but didn’t live there long enough to write much more than that.

My office in the apartment in Pennsylvania.

This was my “office” in the apartment Mikey & I rented when we left NYC together, before we moved into that house above. We rented a small one-bedroom apartment in an old Victorian house that was on the Delaware River in Pennsylvania, in the foothills of the Pocono Mountains. We were less than 2 hours from NYC, so it was an ideal location. I could easily go back & forth to Manhattan to meet with publishers and other writers, etc., and Mikey could go visit his son, who was only about 6 years old (!!) at the time. (He’s now well out of college…).

My “office” was in a corner of the living room. He and I lived there for 3 years. I wrote 3 novels in that little corner — including Freak Parade, which I wrote about Mikey Rivera. I also wrote three novellas and many, many short stories in that little corner. I also edited 4 fiction anthologies. All in that little corner. I was extremely creative there.

Naturally, Mikey and I shared the tiny apartment with Buster & Bunny! And according to my lease, I was only allowed to have one cat. So we always had to hide Buster from the landlord. Luckily, the two cats looked enough alike, that if one would sit in the front window, you couldn’t really tell if it was a different cat. The only problem was to never let both cats sit in the front window at the same time. The landlord only lived a couple blocks away, so I was constantly worrying that he was going to see both cats at the same time. Luckily, my little desk was not far from the window, because I mean it was a constant chore to keep both of them out of that window at the same time. (It was a beautiful bay window, looking out over the river.)

Okay! That’s my little trip down Memory Lane for today.

Well, the podcast recording went very well yesterday, although I barely even mentioned The Guitar Hero Goes Home! We talked about a bunch of other stuff, instead. Mostly the state of the erotica publishing industry now compared with its heyday, when we all first met.  (Me, M. Christian, and Ralph Greco, Jr.) I will let you know when you can listen to it on YouTube.

And today, I am feeling better all the way around. The bruise on my thigh is a hideous mass of vibrant colors now, but almost all the pain is completely gone. And this evening, I’m meeting Kevin, the director of my play, for dinner, so I’m really looking forward to a chance to get out and socialize again. Yay!! And we’ll be discussing all the things that are going on with my play, so I’m very eager to hear about all that.

Nick Cave’s official web site sent out an email this morning, announcing the screening dates for the extended film version of  Idiot Prayer – Nick Cave Alone at Alexandra Palace. To purchase tickets, you can locate your area here. (I think. I might have just given you the link that says you can’t yet buy tickets to see the film in Crazeysburg, but I’ve been assured the film is coming here soon!) (Just kidding, of course. Nothing comes to Crazeysburg!!)

Okay, that’s it!! Have a terrific Friday, wherever you are in the world.  Thanks for visiting, gang. I leave you with “Euthanasia,” the new song by Nick Cave, which is in that film mentioned above.  Enjoy. I love you guys. See ya!
