But now there is a post on his channel from this morning — a tiktok video featuring a girl who absolutely looks like she was generated by A.I., but that’s sort of how young women want to look these days.
Wherever he really is right now, he is posting from somewhere that doesn’t allow me to copy & paste his posts, so I can only paste the links. But please read them if you haven’t already.
And in other Italy news — on Charlie Ward’s channel there is a tiktok video regarding Italy being the first country in the world to outlaw synthetic meats and synthetic foods of all kinds. The video is HERE.

I am in a high level of anxiety these days. I am pretty much staying off the internet and trying to focus on my writing. Making good progress on the novella, “Novitiate.” So that’s good. It helps me ignore the anxiety.
Today I go back to the train station for the next few days. And as luck would have it — we are expecting rain for the next few days! I guess we’ll see how that goes. But this will be my last week at work before I go to Toronto for the opening of our play, “The Guide to being Fabulous.”
If I don’t make it to the blog tomorrow:
Nick Cave will be in Atlanta!! But it is sold out…
And tomorrow is the heavenly birthday of my beloved Tom Petty! He would have been 73, which I find utterly impossible to wrap my mind around….here he was at age 27, one of my favorite photos of him:
RIP Tom Petty 1950-2017

That’s it, gang.
Enjoy your Thursday, wherever you are in the world.
Simon Parkes had a great update yesterday. It was balanced and insightful about both Israel and the RV.
If you aren’t a member of Connecting Consciousness, you won’t be able to watch the video. But joining is free and you can join HERE. (It can take a while to be approved, though.) (Briefly, regarding Israel: he says that there is indeed “a war” of sorts going on there, but it is not what it seems, and that the images you are being shown on MSM and even in Alt media are purposely misleading and intended to upset you.)
This just sickens me, gang. Even this late in the game, they are still going to arrest Truthers? I have no clue if this is optics, or what it is. But you can send postcards to him here:

Yesterday, I had to write up a brief note “from Sandra” that will go in the show’s program at Soulpepper when our play opens there next week. In going over my files from 2014 (!!), I found this photo that I just love — the women in Sandra’s family. They were all very supportive of her throughout her life, including during her transition:

Today at noon in Nashville, TN! Nick Cave will be doing an in-store signing of his book, Faith, Hope & Carnage, at Parnassus Books.
And tonight, he’ll be live at the Ryman!!!! Tickets are still available.
A fan took this photo of Nick Cave outside the theater in Detroit Sunday night. I think it’s so funny! Probably the worst photo of him that I have ever seen. (It was really windy and he was in a hurry to get into the theater…):

That’s kind of it.
I’ll close with this today: Over the weekend, I happened upon an old Randy Travis CD, Storms of Life, from 1986. I used to love Randy Travis, but at some point, he just slipped out of my consciousness.
I immediately remembered that the song “Storms Of Life” was a song that was sort of my anthem to my birth father, but I didn’t remember why. So I put the CD into the CD player in my kitchen and took quite a trip down Memory Lane!! Even though my birth dad has been dead now since 1999, that song still reminds me of the (really complicated) man I knew so briefly.
And then I remembered that there was some other song of Randy Travis’s that I really loved but I couldn’t remember what it was, so I started hunting for other Randy Travis CDs, and I found the song. A huge hit from 1987, “Forever and Ever, Amen.”
I took that out, too, and played it and suddenly recalled how that was the song that played right after Wayne & I said “I do” at our wedding and then turned to go up the aisle as married people!! (Yes, I am incredibly romantic.) (We walked down the aisle to “The Hawaiian Wedding Song,” from Elvis’ movie Blue Hawaii, and then up the aisle to “Forever and Ever, Amen.”)
So I’ll leave you with both of those great Randy Travis songs below!

Have a terrific Tuesday, wherever you are in the world.
Thanks for visiting. I love you guys. See ya!

“Storms of Life”
“The Storms Of Life”
There’s a dirty piece of cardboard That reads Montgomery Ward Taped across the window of my old Ford. A six-pack on the front seat and a box of chicken wings, I’m dialin’ ‘cross the radio for a song that I can sing
I’d better change my wandrin ways, I know I’ve seen my better days, Always gettin’ high when I get low. Well, I left my soul out in the rain, Lord, what a price I’ve had to pay. The storms of life are washin’ me away.
An old mail pouch, tobacco sign Fadin’ on the barn, Bringin’ back sweet memories of Mama’s farm When love was just a country girl that lived on down the road. [Spoken:] you know, she almost had me turned around, But that was years ago.
I’d better change my wandrin ways, I know I’ve seen my better days, Always gettin’ high when I get low. Well, I left my soul out in the rain, Lord, what a price I’ve had to pay. The storms of life are washin’ me away. Yeah, the storms of life are washin’ me away.
C 1986 – Max Barnes, Troy Seals
“Forever and Ever, Amen”
“Forever and Ever, Amen”
You may think that I’m talkin’ foolish You’ve heard that I’m wild and I’m free You may wonder how I can promise you now This love that I feel for you always will be
But you’re not just time that I’m killin’ I’m no longer one of those guys As sure as I live, this love that I give Is gonna be yours until the day that I die
Oh, baby, I’m gonna love you forever Forever and ever amen As long as old men sit and talk about the weather As long as old women sit and talk about old men If you wonder how long I’ll be faithful I’ll be happy to tell you again I’m gonna love you forever and ever Forever and ever, amen
They say time takes its toll on a body Makes the young girls brown hair turn gray But honey, I don’t care, I ain’t in love with your hair And if it all fell out, well, I’d love you anyway
They say time can play tricks on a memory Make people forget things they knew Well, it’s easy to see, it’s happenin’ to me I’ve already forgotten every woman but you
Oh, darlin’, I’m gonna love you forever Forever and ever amen As long as old men sit and talk about the weather As long as old women sit and talk about old men If you wonder how long I’ll be faithful Well, just listen to how this song ends I’m gonna love you forever and ever Forever and ever, amen
I’m gonna love you forever and ever Forever and ever, forever and ever Forever and ever, amen
Stranger and stranger out there — right, gang? But I’m still feeling like we have to ignore the “news.” This doesn’t mean that something’s not happening, but I do think the MSM is still predominantly lies.
From Charlie Ward’s newsletter:
“Encouraging the funding of terrorism to discriminate and destroy lives is all part of the corrupt system we are still living in. The people responsible for this are being exposed, watch closely.
“What’s happening somewhere else in the world and MSM is 100% focused on Hamas/Israel? Don’t fall back into old behavior. Look. Think.”
********
And here’s some interesting news regarding the upcoming situation at my bank. Again, I want to stress that I live in a small village in rural Ohio. My bank is made up predominantly of farmers. And usually there are only 2 tellers plus the bank manager working there.
At of the end of this month, our bank is “switching over to a new digital platform.” Which I think is some sort of QFS, but no one at the bank has given out any details.
When I went in to the bank today, FOUR new people were there, being trained for stuff and talking with the bank manager, etc. Very interesting, indeed.
I wanted to ask them when we’re getting the new US Treasury Notes, but I decided to just mind my own business.

This is sort of interesting — allegedly Phil went off to Italy suddenly. And just now, he posted:
“Where was Obama the night of the 2020 election? Why was he there? Who was with him?”
As far as I know, Obama was in Italy, with the CIA, Mi6, and Mossad, monitoring some sort of Italian military satellite as the US election results were getting “switched” from Trump to Biden…
Curious, indeed.
**********
Okay, from Real Raw News:
“Mark Milley Hanged at GITMO
The criminal Mark A. Milley was demoted to the rank of private and given a dishonorable discharge before a noose was slipped over his head Friday morning. His medals and ribbons, many of which were unearned and self-awarded, were rescinded.[…]
Things here are mostly good. My trip to Toronto for the opening of our play, “The Guide to Being Fabulous,” is NEXT WEEK. Finally! I don’t know, it just seems like it’s taking forever. And then before you know it, it will be over and on to the next city.
Okay. Enjoy your Monday, wherever you are in the world.
Thanks for visiting. I love you guys. See ya!
***************
A “new” Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers song, “Help Me,” will be on the upcoming re-master of their album MOJO. I love this song! (I love this whole album.) Okay. Enjoy.
Okay, gang. Chaos pretty much everywhere. Phil says to expect some sort of an “event” — up until midnight tonight. He says that odds are now at 70%. So stay alert.
Also, I thought this was very interesting. From yesterday. It was posted on goodlionchat.
“Tomorrow is also 10 days without a speaker of the house which means we have had
10 days
Darkness
NO money can move no bills passed no appropriations
Last budget was o ly 45 days and they have chewed up 25 percent of that with no speaker
Friday the 13th we may just get one….
That coinciding with the Isreal stuff and all the 17 commz is just way way tooooo much coincidence
By the way no functioning speaker and there fore congress is just that much more ammo to allow a military coup….or a sign that we are already living under one in my estimation
I think the real show is coming real real soon”
**********
It looks like Speaker of the House will be Jim Jordan (from Ohio, btw).
***********
I hope this post looks okay. I’m doing it from my phone.
Some of you might have already seen this post from yesterday. I can’t vouch for its accuracy, obviously, but if it is true, then it is HUGE.
From Real Raw News:
“JAG Convicts, Sentences [General] Mark Milley to Hang
10/10/2023. GITMO.
A three-officer panel at Guantanamo Bay convicted disgraced former General Mark A. Milley of treason and sentenced him to hang after a military tribunal that saw Vice Adm. Darse E. Crandall lose his cool to Milley’s provocative spurs. […]
[…] The date of execution has been scheduled for Oct 13.”
I wish Phil would do a livestream on what is really happening in Israel, but so far, nothing. The only thing we can really know for sure is that nothing about the current war is as it seems. (And let’s not forget Afghanistan, gang — fake, fake, fake!)
💥 ISRAEL IRON DOME SCAM FAKE WAR EXPOSED! FAKE MEDIA WAR PROPAGANDA OPP. (14 mins):
And here’s one of the reasons why hoaxes and fake news work so well. Everyone’s indoctrinated now; no one is educated:
COLLEGE ADMISSION TEST SCORES DROP TO LOWEST LEVEL IN 30 YEARS, MEDIA RUSHES TO BLAME COVID (5 mins):
*********
Okay, that’s it for now. It’s back to the train station for the next few days.
Oh! Although, so far, there has not been the lockdown in Toronto that some fear porn-ers were saying would happen this week, I sadly am seeing people putting on masks in Canada and talking about the “COVID surge”… I cannot believe how hard it is to wake people up.
Anyway. I guess we’ll see, regarding Toronto. But meanwhile, tonight in Montreal!! The show is sold out, but if you have tickets, enjoy yourself!!
Have a great Thursday, wherever you are in the world.
Thanks for visiting. I love you guys. See ya!
(Oh. PS: I am going to be re-designing Marilyn’s Room Books, in order to get all the books on there. Plus, Valerie and I are still working on the Zazzle store. Her beautiful dog, Kiki, passed away unexpectedly and everything got put on hold.)
***************
Once again! From my wee bonny girlhood. It still holds true today. Enjoy!
“Get Together”
Love is but a song we sing Fear’s the way we die You can make the mountains ring Or make the angels cry Though the bird is on the wing And you may not know why
Come on, people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another right now
Some may come and some may go He will surely pass When the one that left us here Returns for us at last We are but a moment’s sunlight Fading in the grass
Come on, people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another right now
Come on, people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another right now
Come on, people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another right now
If you hear the song I sing You will understand, listen You hold the key to love and fear All in your trembling hand Just one key unlocks them both It’s there at your command
Come on, people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another right now
Come on, people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another right now
I said come on, people now Smile on your brother Everybody get together Try to love one another right now Right now Right now
Okay, gang. Here is the full video of David Icke talking about what is really happening in Israel — (posted to Dr. Reiner Fuellmich’s channel) — in case you haven’t seen it (42 mins):
Just thought these points, all taken together, with the stuff I’ve been re-posting here the last few days, can help us see what might really be happening in light of the Q post that Israel was “saved for last”.
*************
Okay.
Things here are getting better.
I had a great lunch with Kara today at the Granville Inn. And we were joined by a long-time friend of mine, Vicki, who is fully recovered from throat cancer. Wow, was it great to see her. And they both said “we’re coming out to your house, Marilyn, to have a potluck when you get back from Toronto!”
That made me feel so good because no one EVER comes out to the Hinterlands to hang out in my house!! I’m so happy about this. I love entertaining friends.
Things on the Toronto front are improving. I won’t go into all the details on the blog, but I’m starting to feel easier about things. So that is a miracle.
Other than that, just working on one of my novellas-in-progress these days and trying to just relax about things.
Hope all is well with all of you, gang, wherever you are in the world.
“Mind Control only works as long as we participate. It’s always the same old game. 🤢 Once you know, you know. 💥💪 💡”
Very interesting points here, posted to Goodliontv:
“From Wyatt on X:
Isn’t it funny how just as Israeli society is tearing itself apart and appeared close to civil war, this attack comes along and within hours Netanyahu’s political opponents are forced into a coalition government to support him?
I take nothing away from the bravery of the Hamas soldiers who are fighting in this battle, but it is simply not credible that Hamas could have done this… The Gaza fence is an open country with little to conceal advancing Hamas units, and we are talking about hundreds of Hamas soldiers moving across the border. Where were all the IDF units who normally man and monitor this border fence? What happened to the surveillance of the border fence? What about the sensors? What happened to the vaunted IDF air defenses that were overwhelmed by Homemade hang gliders powered by lawn mower engines and box fans?
We are hearing rumors that Iran conducted a cyber attack that took down the electronic surveillance of the border fence, but did the Iranians also order the removal of IDF units that apparently left the Israeli border towns utterly defenseless? It seems much more likely that Netanyahu orchestrated this as an easy way to solve his political problems while also providing a pretext for the IDF to finish the ethnic cleansing of Gaza and perhaps the West Bank as well.
It’s like Israel is having its own “9/11” with the same suspicious, “how did this happen”. War usually needs a reason to start. 9/11 was the US reason for the Gulf War, Gulf of Tonkin was the reason for Vietnam, and now Israel has a reason. No, I think all wars begin in secret rooms with men who do not give a damn for innocent people, period.
Hamas = Mossad Al Qaeda = CIA
Create a problem, offer the solution of more tyranny to solve said problem. I’ve seen too much to think these people aren’t gleeful to kill their own to advance their means.”
*****************
Also, this was posted on many channels, but here it is from Goodliontv (this is related to a Q drop about Trump being Batman):
“Dan Scavino, Don Jr & Eric Trump have all three posted this!”
***************
Part of the anti-Biden optics (or psyop, or whatever it’s called) in this current “war”–
“Everyone standing with Israel are the same people who stood by George Bush after he created 9/11 and went after weapons of mass destruction. Blind emotional retards who let the TV & media decide for them instead of using their own damn brain.
I feel for the innocent dying – it’s insanely wrong. What’s worse is their own government caused it & now you have people crying for support for Israel.
Cry for the innocent yes… that’s good and right. But don’t be bowing to the narcissistic leaders that created this. Be smart. Be useful. Don’t be a sheep. Be a Lion!”
************
So, here we go again, gang. But “Israel is last” — and this is not to imply that people aren’t being killed or haven’t been killed all over the place — but this is almost OVER!!
In other news…
Nick Cave is in Boston tonight! Last I saw, tickets were still available.
Okay. Have a terrific Tuesday, wherever you are in the world.
Also, interesting optics post from Trump. Apparently the goal is to blame what happens to Israel on the fake Biden Admin using “US taxpayer dollars” to fund Hamas….
“These Hamas attacks are a disgrace and Israel has every right to defend itself with overwhelming force. Sadly, American taxpayer dollars helped fund these attacks, which many reports are saying came from the Biden Administration. We brought so much peace to the Middle East through the Abraham Accords, only to see Biden whittle it away at a far more rapid pace than anyone thought possible. Here we go again.”
