Yesterday, Dear Reader, full of snotty summer cold and limply languishing on my Library sofa, I decided to invest my sick-note time in listening to the above lecture by Dr Jordan Peterson. It was based around the animated classic ‘Pinocchio’. And it was all Cade’s fault…
*/coughs… True, Kicky… /clears throat… Der Doc referenced Pinocchio in der stuff we lissend to earlier in da week. Snot all Cade’s fault, granted, but ‘e did start it yesderday with dose overnight DMs ‘e sent me…*
*/thinks… Dat was one of der uvver little talk we lissend to, Kicky… /rolls eyes… Syncs…*
… Well, nearly all Cade’s fault, Dear Reader. MEROVEE Frank in the Red universe contributed as well…
*/sips cherry-Coke… Child lost in the Jung… /cough… jungal, and the body of a missing asdrofidisis found on a Greek Island, which was named for a famous fool… /gnaws lips…*
*/smiles… Dat was mum’s favwrit Beadles toon, Kicky…*
After replying to Frank, I decided to search for anything else the good Doctor might have said about the story of ‘Pinocchio’…
… And he has…
*Ah… ah… ah…*
*Gesundheit! Yeah, a bid of a monster, Kicky…*
So, Dear Reader, if you fancy listening to the breakdown of a Gnostic story, with a Christianity overlay, and you have seven hours to spare, then I highly recommend you partake in the stack of videos that appear at the top of this post. Have a Song…
Dear Reader, having spent the past – just shy of – seven years immersed in ‘Synchromysticism’, it is my contention that ‘Synchronicity’ is in fact a language. So, it was really interesting to stumble across this video the other evening…
*/lights up… Imagine discovering the blueprints to the ‘Ark’… /drags… and then getting to build it… /streams smoke… And it’s fuckin’ round…*
Lucky us, Dear Reader 😀 Not only is it Sunday, but we have a tasty, new missive from the Okie Devil of Text US to digest, along with lunch…
Enjoy! ❤

I am in a moving daze.
I guess I shouldn’t be nervous about moving, but I am.
Moving day is fast approaching.
And no, your eyes are not deceiving you in that image above, nor is it taking forever to load. Getting used to “smooth stuff”, then seeing something “less smooth”, can really fuck with your perception(s), eh?
^Better Off Alone^
We get destroyed because we refuse knowledge. That’s something the following video espouses. In a world where there is loads of hidden knowledge and/or knowledge that I’m told not to seek, I’m ultimately going to get the deep-six for not being more knowledgeable.
And what about all the fucks that intentionally keep knowledge secret? I’m not talking about who you are fucking, your annual income or what your FICO score is, but these bits of information that are tucked away in secure locations specifically for the purpose of keeping people in the dark and/or retaining power for themselves and their organization(s).
Which speaking of fucking, income and FICO scores, what are the odds that there are those who know those things about me? I’m not suggesting that I’m getting laid (because I’m not), nor that I have any money (I don’t), but I do have a FICO score.
Anyway, this doc is kinda dumb, it’s all “rah rah” about something or another but I’m not sure as to what, and I had to turn it off @ 21:21.
^THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE FOREVER TIME:#7 THE GOD KNOWLEDGE^
With that bullshit in mind…
Q: What is the first thing that people do with knowledge?
A: This little light of mine? I'm gonna let it shine?
Nope…straight to the bushel to hide that shit before someone tries to steal it and/or extinguish it. But before we get into copyrights and patents, franchising rights, ancillary rights, corporate espionage and all those wonderful financial perks, let’s get practical. If you suddenly know “the answer to life the universe and everything”, what in the hell are you to do with it?
It’s gonna take some time to figure that out, so burying your new found knowledge may be a matter of practicality more than anything else. After all, knowing how to melt lead isn’t really that big of a deal, especially when compared to the concept of removing melted lead from your face because some asshole dropped water into the crucible full of melted lead, which instantly caused the water to evaporate/become steam, which created an explosion that blew hot melted lead in your face.
Didn't think of that even being a possibility, did ya?
So yeah, the difference between knowledge and wisdom is…time? Application(s)? Experience(s)?
^This Little Light of Mine Lyrics : Christian Hymns with Lyrics^
Yes, the story about the melted lead + water comes from real life. One day at school, I just so happened to be standing right next to a lead-melter, when a guy walks up and drops an unmelted piece of lead into the crucible, and this unmelted piece of lead had just been washed but not dried, so it had water on it. The water immediately turned to steam, this created a huge steam-bubble in the lead, and the whole mess exploded. One guy got melted lead on his face, one of my welding gloves got hot lead all over it, another guy got it on his arm and shirt, and the ceiling was covered in lead. BTW, the ceilings in this room were about 15 feet high, so this explosion was quite energetic. Who would have ever thought that a few drops of water could explode several pounds of melted lead? What’s that? You see no correlation in knowing everything andpractical application(s) and/or actualizations in a causal universe?
I’m not saying that I subscribe to all things Newtonian, but Newtonian types of physics sure as shit seem to be quite prevalent in these spaces that we occupy.
I guess in America, there’s no real need. There’s two parties, they’re 24 hour/7 days a week affairs, and they’ll take anyone who’ll sign their forms and tow their lines.

Or whatever.
^Jay Lumen – Babel (Original Mix)^
This is kinda strange…
Nearly time to hit the road for my PM appointment,an hour each way to be treated like a criminal….btw, I belong to Oklevueha N.A.C., cannabis is a sacrament….this doctor is not wanting to acknowledge my religious freedom…..thoughts? I will be back in a few hours to see
Now, that caught my eye because I immediately empathized with being in pain and feeling like a criminal for taking medication for it. Some of the pharmacies/pharmacists here in the US used to treat me like I was a criminal for being in a pain management program. You take your prescription in to the pharmacy, they see the medication your prescription is for, their face goes cold, they have to “check and see if they have any in stock” and many times say they don’t, even when they do have your medication, then they have to do 80 checks and verifications…
it's a totally humiliating experience
I think that was the point tho’: make the process of filling certain prescriptions non-cost effective + make the patient feel like complete and total shit. Anyway, if you’re smoking grass for pain, I can empathize. But what’s all this business about “Oklebueha N.A.C.” and membership?
Rut roh!!! I get the feeling this is not about cannabis, and what in the fuck is the Cult Education Institute? Why is someone going to a doctor, to get medicine, from a church? I’m totally lost here. Is Uncle Sam not getting a cut or something? Getting grass from a doctor because it’s part of a church ritual?
/shrug
^Astrix & Avalon – Moonshine^
What is really strange to me is where I started (empathy), and where I wound up (confusion). I mean, don’t most churches usually provide what you need for a particular service or sacrament or whatever.
OK…so…um…some dudes were tripping balls on peyote, and one dude gave another “permission” to “take peyote to the white man”? Yeah, I can see why some may see this “church” as being sketchy as fuck. There’s even a picture of some hand-scrawled note? Seems to me that you either got the juice, or you don’t. Can a Sioux Blessing be retracted? Surely there’s a caveat there in the event whitey gets out of control and starts acting a fool? White people are known for that kind of behavior after all.
^Saltwater (Original) by Chicane^
When I went to a Christian private school in 7th and 8th grade, one of the requirements of attending this school was that you be a member of a church and attend regularly. So in order to be in one group, you also had to be a member of another group. Lose your affiliation with one group, lose your affiliation with the other. So when my parents stopped going to church during my 8th grade year, I was in a bit of a quandary. This quandary was made even worse when my mother got a job playing the piano at a Methodist church. I started attending this church so that I could keep going to school. Problem was, there was a caveat. Ya see, this school I went to was a “Christian” school…
meaning, Baptist
There was some controversy regarding whether or not my attending a Methodist church actually counted as “active attendance in a church”, and the administration actively encouraged me to find a good, wholesome Christian church to attend since my soul was in jeopardy.
^Boney M – Rasputin 2017 Blue Remix^
I know, I know, as a Baptist, once you are saved you are saved forever and ever, and your soul can never again be in jeopardy. Baptists believe that Salvation is a gift that is given freely, accepted freely, and once obtained, it cannot be lost…
but there's a catch
Ya see, if you are really saved, like for really-real all the way saved, you won’t backslide or wander off the path because a saved soul will not depart from the path of Jesus. If you are saved, you will never drink beer, and more than that you will never even have an urge to drink beer. As such, if you want to drink a beer, you may not actually be saved, and if you actually drink a beer, you are most definitely not saved and you’d better get saved before you turn into a lush. You are passively taught to constantly question your salvation, even tho you are actively taught to NEVER EVAR question your salvation.
Weird, eh? Digress
^Reeson – Anubis (original mix)^
What I’m primarily thinking about here is membership being requisite for membership. Being able to join one group only because you are a member of another group. Professionals. How the fuck do you get your foot in the door? Join a group.
Q: What organizations did Jesus belong to?
A: ?ó¿ó?
To be fair, he was number 13 (or number 1 depending on how you look at it) in a gaggle of miscreants that wandered around getting into trouble, so I guess that kinda counts as a group. Guess it only makes sense that we’d form our own groups based on that original group, and we do so in order to try and recapture that magic the original group produced. Kinda weird to think that a copycat anything would produce the same magic as an original group or original idea. In fact, it almost sounds counter-intuitive when you think about it.
Ever heard of a television series called “Another Life”? Just saw someone talking about it on a forum, and they mentioned that in the very first episode of the series, there is “a male crew member on a space ship wearing stiletto heels”. They then went on to rant about producers pandering to certain viewing demographics, and I cannot help but agree that stiletto heels on a space ship seems quite impractical. I mean sure, the character Klinger on the show M*A*S*H was cross-dressing in a war zone, but that was a comedy, so it was OK. A dude wearing “women’s footware” on a spaceship in a serious drama is just…fucked up.
*Triggered*
Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
<yawn>
Wait, is this show even a drama? Does that matter?
^A normal day in Russia…^
‘Tis now Saturday morning, and I find it odd that I stumbled into a bunch of controversy last night regarding…groups. Mainly groups and the power(s) they wield. Shouldn’t be shocking tho, because isn’t that the point of groups? To wield power? Use that power against your foes?
In this case, it’s centered around some dude who may have stumbled onto a cure for cancer, and the battle that ensued as a result of this find. It would appear that there are those who aren’t real happy about their infrastructure(s) around cancer crumbling, and they also want a piece of this cancerous pie. Who in the FUCK would want a piece of cancer?
BTW, do not believe anything in that Wikipedia article, as all Wikipedia articles are fake and/or full of disinformation. That’s what I’ve been told anyway.
That’s where a lot of the controversy seems to start, and that rather dubious sounding Wikipedia page is only scratching the surface. There’s also a pretty good documentary on this dude, his practice, and what he’s been through, but I’ll let Roob add that somewhere if she so desires.
^Blastoyz – Mandala^
If you want to be somewhere, and where you currently at is not that somewhere you want to be, could it be said that your being in the one place you don’t want to be, is in fact the best starting point for you getting to where you do want to be?
That’s why I use Wikipedia articles, and have no plans to stop using them. Yes, Wikipedia itself is full of shitbirds and hacks who have their own agendas. But how is this different from anywhere else? Are you really trying to tell me that The Washington Post isn’t full of people who are on multiple payrolls? The Guardian? Pravda? China Daily? Hell, the news organizations themselves are on multiple payrolls via advertisers and special interest groups of all kinds, so why in the fuck wouldn’t their employees follow suit and rent out their services to the highest bidder(s)? Anyway, being in a bad place might sometimes help you get to where it is you want to be.

^Nicky Romero – Toulouse^
The only reason I can see groups wanting to be “the source” would be distributive in nature. You really don’t care what you are selling, you just want to be selling it. You want to be the place that people come to move merchandise, and you get a piece of everything.
If you have the product, and your customer has the cash, chances are good that an exchange will be transacted.
Q: What do people want?
A: Is "why do people want" a better question?
Maybe answering a chain of questions will give you the answer to the answer to life the universe and everything. Once you’ve arrived at your own personal “42”…
Q: Now what?
A: ???
Good luck with this one.
^Of Monsters And Men – Dirty Paws (Official Lyric Video)^
This was going to originally be a blog post on my own blog, but circumstances have arisen to change that. I’m only mentioning this because the above may be a travesty for Roob to deal with since I didn’t write it with her in mind.
Meh, she'll tame the fuck out of it I'm sure
Good luck Roob, and God be with you in your editorial efforts.

Oh, and this is blog post #135 I’ve written for The LoL. Too bad it wasn’t #137 – the number 137 has been appearing a lot over the past week or so.
^Armin van Buuren – Blah Blah Blah (Official Lyric Video)^
*Manners, Clicky! …/stubs butt… Of course, completely delish… *
Dunno know about you, Dear Reader, but I’m feeling all contented and full after that. I’m off to find somewhere cool and dark for a bit of a lie down. Have a Song…
Dear Reader, I’ve been rather on my own this week. My good friend, LoL regular and remote viewing partner, Cade Fon Apollyon, a.k.a. The Okie Devil of Text US, has been gainfully employed selling fireworks for the past 3 days…
*He should have gone with the Combo, Clicky… /flicks lighter… *
*/streams smoke… Leg-ion is a bit of a train a-fiction-ado, Clicky… /smirks…*
This week, Dear Reader, Cade and I remote viewed M. Night Shyamalan’s trilogy of movies, ‘Unbreakable’ from 2000, ‘Split’ from 2017 and ‘Glass’ which was released earlier this year…
I’d seen ‘Unbreakable’ back in the early Naughties on DVD. I thought it an entertaining enough flick, but nothing more. I admit I rolled my eyes back in January when I heard that a sequel was to be released, called ‘Glass’…
… But my ears pricked up earlier this week when I heard work colleagues discussing the performance of James McAvoy in a movie called ‘Split’…
… And I learned that not only is it set between ‘Unbreakable’ and ‘Glass’, but that it also succeeded as a “stand-alone movie”. That reminded me of a favourite book…
*No fucking way! …/flicks ash… That’s like a sync on steroids, Clicky…*
… Not the story told in the film itself, so much as the movie’s format and placement within the trilogy. Now, Dear Reader, I don’t know M. Night Shyamalan, but I do know the author H.K. Hillman…
… His first book, ‘Jessica’s Trap’, is about the construction of something unbreakable, and works as a complete, stand-alone story…
… Whereas his third book, ‘Norman’s House’, set 372 years later, satisfyingly completes the tale. Glass is integral to it…
Here’s the Okie Devil now, to kick us off on this adventure.
Enjoy! ❤
Ever hear of a guy named Hisashi Ouchi? I went to high school with the dude. He was like a brother.
Those are lies
I don’t know Hisashi Ouchi at all, but it appears that someone named Hisashi Ouchi does in fact exist. Or, he did. I guess it depends on how you view who exists and how as to whether or not the guy still exists, and maybe even if he ever existed. Now, I know where I am going here kinda, so let us run over to Google real quick and see if Google has anything to say about some dead fuck named Hisashi Ouchi.
So who the fuck is Hisashi Ouchi? Or rather, who was he? Just a corpse now. Prolly buried in a lead-lined coffin 30 feet underground and covered in cement, and just laying there being all radioactive and “festering in his own juices” as someone I used to know might say. But the person that would have said that is dead, too. I wonder if dead people get together and play cards. Have open-mic night, talent shows or community sings.
Digress
Do you think it is possible for people to just…disappear? I wonder on what criteria we base “appearances” and “disappearances”. Convenience?
^Horrible Ways To Die – The Radiation Hell of Hisashi Ouchi^
Back over to you, RooBeeDoo…
Thank you, Cade, for that lighthearted start…
*Ouchi, Clicky. I’d guess if you had to get a message to ‘Death’, the living can’t deliver it but the… /smirks…*
There was a lot a death in what we viewed – death of people, populations, planet. And death of empires and innocence, ways of doing things. Beliefs…
Dear Reader, Cade had sent me his next observation before I finished making this one. Something to bear in mind as we read on…
I admit that I’ve recently been intentionally…erm…”steering against the current”, as it pertains to the automation(s) of YouTube. I haven’t been actively doing it, just trying to be a bit unpredictable with what I watch, why, and for how long before I actively try and go off the rails, so to speak.
That said, there was an unusual appearance in my recommended last night. One about a disappearance. Five disappearances in one event actually. They’re now referred to as “The Yuba County Five”. Odd name considering the unbalanced equation that remains. Oh, and why this “Yuba County Five” is also referred to as “America’s Dyatlov Pass Incident”? The only thing that I can figure is…
metadata
Trying to connect unrelated things. Odd considering how “irrelevance” typically figures in to more “official” types of thinking/doing. Too much dependence on Occam and popular interpretations of shaving/cutting devices? After, not everything is equal.
Did I lose you there?
Don’t sweat it.
We’ll find you.
^The STRANGE Disappearance of The Yuba County 5 – America’s Dyatlov Pass Incident^
Are we even close to being on the same page Roob? I’ve no idea what you’ve written next, but I’m interested to read it. 😀
*Ooh I like the radioactive, pixelated look, Clicky… /innocent face… Or did you have a spot of bother making it?*
Despite all the death, there was an abundance of creation in our viewing, Dear Reader. Myths and Reputations. Structures and Relationships, creating and recreating Earth, ways of doing things…
Now over to Cade for the finale to this post, Dear Reader. Let’s hope he has a Song…
Okie dokie RoobieDoobie, we’ve got two Dyatlovs providing various forms of passes, passages and passings, one Yuba, and we’ve got a bunch missing at various times + others gone. Let’s us see where these two Dyatlov connections are according to Google Maps.
Wait…is it Chernobyl or Chornobyl? Or is it Wormwood? For some reason, “wormwood” always makes me think of pecans, and pecans always make me think of iodine. Is that a weird way to think? Is this a bad time to bring up the book of Numbers from The Bible and think about who we consider as “missing” and who we consider as “found”, and when?
Digress
Let’s see where Dyatlov Pass in Siberia is located relative to Yuba County Cali…for…ni…a.
I wish there was a way to add more than just an origin and destination. I guess if you are logged in to Google, you can pin multiple locations, and on the Google Maps mobile app you can add up to 9 destinations, but I can’t do that here. There’s also mention of Oroville in that Yuba 5 vid. Flows, dams, and containment vessels. Coincidence?
Q: Do you have to be alive to die?
A: Says who?
The concept of “the deadman” has reared it’s head on many occasions over the past several years, but I honestly have no idea what “the deadman” is, nor what it represents. Not really a strange concept, just a foreign one to me in the current context. Lots of talk about dying and being reborn while you are still alive, so I wonder what death is.
Why is it always and forever so bitter?
Can the future tell me who I am?
Or is it telling me who I will be?
I guess I’m wondering what Elijah would have to say on the topic of transitioning from one plane to another without actually dying here. No connecting flights for Elijah. Non-stop all the way. What a ride that must be.
^Harrison BDP – Decompression^
BTW, I puked my guts up last night. I don’t think it had anything to do with acute radiation exposure in large quantities, but irrespective of the cause of my somewhat regular regurgitational proclivities, that tomato soup didn’t taste near as good coming back up as it did going down. Also, do I see a CCCP shirt in the background of that IT Crowd gif? What the fuck is a commie doing at a footer match in The UK?
My Song, a 130-foot Baltic 130 Custom superyacht, owned by billionaire Pier Luigi Loro Piana, was in transport between the Spanish island of Mallorca and the Italian city of Genoa when a storm in the early hours of Sunday broke the yacht’s cradle on top of a cargo ship and plunged it into the sea, reported Yachting World.

Loyalty
^Deadmau5 – My Pet Coelacanth (1080p) || HD^
‘Tis strange that I’ve been writing for almost 4 years non-stop, and I’ve not crossed paths with this concept. How in the hell does someone write about spirit and spiritual journeys and spiritualistic types of crap for 4 years, and not once directly encounter the concept of loyalty? Welp, in my case, it seems to have taken me pondering the concept of superiority (with a dash of ownership) and then writing a blog post about it, in order to bump into loyalty.
— Amanda (harvest moon) (@moorlandsoul) May 28, 2019
I got a question. Like, what about when ravens are naughty or nice? Does that shit filter down through the human generations too? Is that why people hate/fear ravens? Makes you wonder if one mouse stealing once piece of cheese fucked things up for the rest of mice forever and ever. I guess if this the is case, it’s obvious that seagulls have LONGsince given up on giving a single fuck what people think of them.
lol
Gulls aren’t known for having the best of table manners. That said, does legend and/or folklore have any effect on loyalty or loyalties? Myth?
^Depeche Mode – “But not tonight” extended mix (remastered)^
If the conservative political parties and/or conservative wings of political parties are in fact so powerful within British politics, how in the holy hell did The UK wind up with a nickname like “The Nanny State”? Conservative what? Socialists?
I was just sitting here wondering if that is the real difference between The US and The UK with respect to politics. All political parties in both countries are inherently socialistic, they just have different approaches. Different pathways to the same Utopia.
I saw a vid the other day on “populist” political leaders in Europe, and in it, someone made a comment about “direct democracy”. All I could think of was that “direct democracy” isn’t democracy at all. That got me to thinking about “The Nanny State”, which got me to wondering why the Tories/Conservative Party are considered to be the party to beat.
And when in the hell did being labeled “a Thatcherite” become a positive trait? I thought you Limeys hated the fuck outta her.
^Unexpected Wave Compilation (CRAZY!)^
Been pondering a movie I watched called “The House With A Clock In The Walls” for almost two days now. The movie wasn’t bad, but it certainly wasn’t good either. Based on my watching, this movie should have been good, so why wasn’t it?
Good characters, good story, good actors
Is it the witchcraft angle? Too metaphorical? Too much of a kid’s movie? That last one could be the kicker. I honestly couldn’t tell if this was A) a kid’s movie that was darkened a bit for the sake of parents, or B) an adult movie that was lightened to attract a more family audience.
^Kettenkarussell – Maybe^
Speaking of magic, a certain scythe-wielding Welsh wizard shared this video with the class. After watching, it got me to thinking about…hot spots.
^How Microwaving Grapes Makes Plasma^
Not just attraction, but what creates it. What causes consolidation?
Why would God/gods/goddesses not be “here”? Like, do levels of removal actually increase the scope of influence?
Certainly seems to be the case in politics. Sure, you can onesie-twosie converts by taking time to go out glad-handing face to face with your constituents in the street, but the more you remove yourself, the more you can reach because the methods for reaching, change. The more you can influence. Just pondering why an entity might not actually occupy the realms they’ve created. Like say…I doubt many public servants actually occupy any public housing blocks that they support/fund. Which that makes me think…
Q: Are politicians in The UK required to actually live in the city/district/borough they represent?
A: ???
Can someone live in St Mary Hoo or Thundersley or Ugley Green, but be elected to serve in some capacity in Southend? Is St Mary Hoo considered Rochester? Is Thundersley considered Benfleet? Is Ugley Green considered Bishop’s Stortford?
^Daso – Immer^
Why can’t I reach the Southend-on-Sea Borough Council Hays microsite?
I went to the Southend website to check on council vacancies, but I cannot get to this “microsite” where the jobs are supposedly listed. Is it because I’m in Texas? You guys/gals regularly checking for broken links? Who the hell is “Hays” anyway?
Or would it be better to apply for UK citizenship at this point. Yes, I know that I as an individual can’t join The EU. I also realize that UK citizenship is not an option for me. Just thinking hypotheticals. Like, why can’t I as an individual, join the EU?
Maybe that’s why the thing seems to be crumbling. You’ve not offered EU citizenship as an option for individuals. Wait, but you can’t can you? That would mean Kosovo could potentially slip in under the radar by getting all their citizens to apply for EU citizenship.
^Aleksandir – Yamaha^
Offering citizenship would give you access to shitloads of cheap labor. Oh wait, you’ve already got that.

It’s almost like the great Okie migration of the early 20th century is happening again right before our eyes. ‘Cept we are seeing foreigners piling into Europe from the south and the east. Wait…that’s where the Okies came from too.

^Eric Prydz – Generate^
Is it hypocritical of Romani people(s) to shun outsiders, not welcome wanderers, and/or to not provide respite for anyone is who is just passin’ thru?
As far as hot spots go, what causes a hot spot as it pertains to abstractions like love? We tend to amass and consolidate feelings of love, then point that love in a particular direction. Focused. Specific. Doesn’t matter what it is either. From commerce to causes, cakes and concerts, to cocks or coochies, we are capable of loving all kinds of stuff.
So what gets our focus where it is? Need? Want? I’m thinking more in the direction of government here tho, so does government want to provide? Does government need to provide?
Q: Is it the responsibility of government to provide, or to ensure that needs are met?
A: ???
I’m just wondering, because it seems to me that finding those in need is not a problem. You could send the city council out to wander the streets on any given day, and they’d likely see fucktons of people on the street in need. The question is, what are you doing about it? And what about those in need who seek you out? Are you available? Can you handle it? Or are you a poor conductor.
Semiconductor?
^Karmaâ – Orient Calling^
I’ve not a fucking clue if loyalty creates hot spots, or if hot spots create loyalty, or even if the two are related in the slightest. Loyalty does seem to be a hot/cold kind of thing tho.
You are, or you aren't
So what happens when you get a bunch of loyalists together? Does that create a hot spot? If so, what does the hot spot itself attract? More of the same? More of the same and more of the opposite, all at the same time? Did you know that a contraction of hot/cold is hold? A contraction of cold/hot is cot? On that note, lets us crawl into a cot and hold each other.
^Oxia – Domino (Morten Granau Remix)^
Maybe a problem that I personally have with loyalty, is the fact that I have to demonstrate it all the fucking time. Really makes me wonder where the problem with loyalty really lay. Trust? Someone having some trust issues maybe? Wrestling with honesty and what it means to be honest?

You’ve got a reach. Perhaps it’s a simple matter of your being completely clueless as to the extent of that reach. But yeah, you’ve got one. It affects people.
*Growth to Movement, agreed. UKIP’s winning 2014 support surged into a winning vote for the newly formed underdog Brexit Party…*
*That ended the night as Top Dog…*
*Yeah, well the Purples were victim to their own success when ‘Leave’ won the referendum in 2016, Clicky… /taps ash… What about the performance of the other newly formed party? Changey McChangeFace, the Arch-Remainers…*
*Awfully pleased with themselves, based on not very much at all? Again agreed…*
*Yikes! The green boogers outperformed strongly right across the Europe… /drags…*
*Oh, that the SNP will flaunt their success in Scotland is a given, Clicky. But what of the big beasts of UK politics? What the fuck happened to Labour?*
*Yeah, shafted by the Lib Dems. It’s not like they weren’t warned or anyfin…*
*Crude but effective, Clicky… /smirks… And what about the Tories, the party of Government?*
*That’s what you get for being led by Brexit wets… /stubs butt… The Reds and Blues need to do what they explicitly promised they would do in their 2017 General Election manifestos, and get us the hell out of the EU…*
*Indeed, Clicky. They’re the ones that put it off and made Halloween the deadline. Maybe after that they can go to the country…*
… And that’s the number of letters in the English alphabet, if majuscules…
majuscule (n.)
1704, of a letter, “capital;” 1738 as a noun, “a capital letter,” from French majuscule (16c.), from Latin maiuscula (littera), fem. of maiusculus “somewhat larger, somewhat greater,” diminutive of maior (see major (adj.)).
1705, “small (not capital) letter,” from French minuscule (17c.), from Latin minuscula, in minuscula littera “slightly smaller letter,” fem. of minusculus “rather less, rather small,” diminutive of minus “less” (from PIE root *mei- (2) “small”). It refers to the kind of reduced alphabetical character which arose 7c. and was from about 9c. substituted in writing for the large uncial. From it the small or lower-case letters of the modern Latin alphabet were derived.
As an adjective, from 1727 in printing, “not capital, of reduced form, small” (of letters); the general sense of “extremely small” is attested by 1893. Related: Minuscular.
*Ha! Basically, that’s my story ‘BOGOF’ in Underdog Anthology Ate… /final drag… He’s lost a lot of capital this week… /plumes smoke…*

So, I’m not at all stressed at being 52, Dear Reader 😉
*Shut up, Clicky…*
I’ll be home, on holiday all week, relaxing, so we’ll be dishing up more shambles and, hopefully, missives for your enjoyment 😀 Come back then and… Have a Song ❤
Dear Reader, I received a missive from Cade this morning that answers at least one of wonders posed in yesterday’s shambles of a post. Clicky and I are delighted to present it in its entirety for you, below…
*He hasn’t been in touch yet, Clicky, so I guess he must still be kipping… /smokes… I hope he’s having a good one…*
Enjoy! ❤

Hello Saturday
The cornflower blue moon is upon us. What a great time to talk about limboic stasis. “What in the fucking hell is “limboic stasis” you might ask? I dunno. Just made it up. I think I did anyway. Not the concept, the name.
^The “Limbo State Of Awakening” – (& How To Move On)^
If you are “psychic”, why is it so jarring that you are equally capable of sometimes being “antipsychic”? Wasn’t there a time when you were not what you now are? To relate, just because you are a distance runner doesn’t mean you are distance running right now, nor does it mean you are capable of distance running at this precise moment. Capability and/or capacity for a certain activity is not indicative of some steady-state existence.
Take a minute to ponder the preparation that distance runners endure in order to prepare for an event. But life is not always like that. Meaning, within this psychic or spiritual realms we travel in life, we rarely have the luxury of being able to prepare for some something down the road. Not to mention that if you are preparing, the Universe has a tendency to show up at whatever function we’ve been preparing for, and they are armed with an infinite supply of produce to throw at our raggedy asses as we take center stage.
Is Not / Is \ Was
Everything that I’ve found within “the spiritual realms” is equally paradoxical.
Is Not Now /= Is Now/=\Is Now =\ Is Not Now
As you read that left to right, then down, time progresses, is/is not and was/was not, become “am” once you as an individual can find your own comfort with discomfort.
Am Not Now /= Am Now/=\Am Now =\ Am Not Now
There is a time when “am = am not”, and there is a time where “am = am”. There is an equality to “am/am not” over the course of time. Some can be comfortable with certain truths, others cannot. I guess it depends on what we strive for and why. Take for example, the concept of seniority.
^DEPECHE MODE INSIGHT^
We like getting in early.
Getting in on the ground floor.
This provides us the opportunity to advance.
Hover over others
Just last night, I watched a video with Roob of some dude reading The Emerald Tablets of Thoth, and Thoth was all fucking over the concepts of ascension and structure and order and law, and talked about all kinds of hierarchies that exist on these higher and higher planes.
We wanna get in on that. But I’m gonna divert here to a Sufi story that I listened to from Idries Shah’s book “A Veiled Gazelle: Seeing How To See”. The book is a collection of short stories, and the story I’m thinking about addresses some of the misconceptions we can maybe sometimes have about seniority.
That Google Books link above should take you straight to the story we are about to explore a bit.
^Depeche Mode – Happiest Girl^
The story is called “Young And Old”, and it’s the story of some older dude on his spiritual path, looking for teachers and their teachings. The old dude has all kinds of experiences and knowledge under his belt, but this new teacher he stumbles onto is WAY too young and seemingly inexperienced to teach the old dude anything. The old dude seeking smarts tells the young teacher as much, the old dude leaves the school telling the young teacher
“you are far too young”
and
“you are of no use to me”
The old dude stumbles around for 10 years searching for what he is seeking, and winds up right back at the young teacher’s school. The old dude tells the younger teacher that he’s wasted 10 years of his life looking for what was right in front of him 10 years ago. The teacher refuses to accept the old dude, telling them that
“you are too old”
So with respect to seniority, we’ve now got the additional variable of physical age, and we can add to that individual ability. Perceptions of equality, and how we calculate it.
¿LostBehind /= Ahead/=\Ahead =\ BehindLost?
I know I know…no one wants to get lost/be lost. But getting rid of options may leave a void. So let us leave lost right where it is in the event we find ourselves there again. Finding lost just might help us to better find found.
^Depeche Mode – New Dress (lyrics)^
Got a quick question for ya…
Q: How do you approach things in a library?
A: Sideways
The information is there, but you can’t go deep until you find what you are looking for.
How you approach things is prolly important.
🙂
^Depeche Mode Blue Dress^
But wait, Sufism is a bunch of nonsense from the Middle East!
The lands of terrorists and terrorism!
Welp, I’m pretty sure that one of my elementary school teachers used to read stories from this book when I was a kid, so we’re talking sometime between 1976/1978, because I remember the teacher. Sometime in either 2014 or 2015, I stumbled across an audio copy of this book on YouTube, and was floored by the coincidence seeing as how I’d completely forgotten about this book and where I’d originally heard some of it’s stories.
Considering that I was knee deep in syncs, synchs, synching, and synchronicity back in 2014/2015, but was completely alone and had no one to talk to, let’s us now here in 2019 reflect and take a peek at a bit from the introduction page of the book A Veiled Gazelle: Seeing How To See, and see if we can make some connections with old and new. See if there is something that I may have missed as far as “a direct connection” or whatever in the fuck may have led to my being completely incompetent.
“And among the wondrous things is a veiled gazelle: A Divine Subtlety, veiled by a state of the Self, Referring to the States of those who know. Unable to explain their perceptions to others, they can only indicate them to whoever has started to feel something similar…”
Muhiyuddin ibn Arabi: The Interpreter of Desires
So that’s the first part of the Introduction page on the book. Let us see who the fuck this Ibn Arabi is, and see if we can see when they wrote about/tried to describe what seems to be a textbook description of “syncs and syncing”.
This dude was writing about weird coincidence/weird events/synchronicity 800 years ago? Thank God for Jung, eh? Would prolly never have made that connection without some lenses to see in that/those directions. But let us continue on with the Introduction, and see what Idries Shah himself has to say on the topic.
‘“The veiled gazelles, or shrouded deer, (Dhabiyun mubarqa’un) referred to by Ibn Arabi are the perceptions and experiences indicated by those who have them to those who have some inkling of them. ‘Veiling’ in Sufi parlance, indicates the action of the subjective or ‘commanding” self, which partly through indoctrination and partly through base aspirations prevents higher vision.’
‘Sufi poetry, literature, tales and activities are the instruments which, when employed with insight and prescription rather than automatically or obsessively, help in the relationship between Sufi and pupil, towards the removal of the veils.”’
Idries Shah
Woah nelly! Did I understand that correctly? These “veiled gazelles” are actually roadblocks?
Makes sense tho
Most of the “syncs” that I personally have experienced could be equated to rain at an outdoor event. Nails in the road on the highway of life. A huge pimple on your face the morning of your wedding day. Road Signs turned the wrong direction to intentionally lead you away from where you are trying to get to.
Q: Do questions exist in the absence of adversity?
A: ??-ó¿ó-??
The “automatically or obsessively” bit gives us some breathing room tho. Gives us some options. Allows us to scrub our subjectivity, and question as to why we label things and events as we do.
Me either. What are those ingredients? What do they do? More than that, what about them activated some turbo mode? Do I need something that is going to put me in turbo mode? Isn’t “turbo” slang for “really fucking bad” in some parts of the world?
Wait…I’ve gone off target. Prolly not tho. All that stuff can be found on Earth/Terra, so it’s all related in some way.

It’s now Sunday the 19th of May, and the subject of reincarnation came up last night. I’ll give you, the reader, a straighter answer than I gave the person I was speaking with last night, and that is,
I don't fucking know
I can imagine all kinds of reasons for reincarnation being quite practical. Such as, if you want to know what it is like to be a worm, crawling along, minding your own business, doing your thing, then suddenly someone comes along, picks you up, and sandwiches you into a piece of paper and shoves that paper into an envelope?
*Ah, he DMed me the Depeche Mode song, ‘cos of the missive, Clicky…*
Welp, reincarnation could provide you some firsthand insight into what that experience is like. Many people scoff at the concept of reincarnation, but these same people might be wholly sold on the idea of legacy. That’s kinda the idea of SoPi-O and SoPi-M. The same or similar energies and motions, but traveling in different directions.
Wait…I’ve gotten sidetracked. I started writing this yesterday morning with the intention of writing and thinking about SoPi-M, but I’ve not gotten to it yet.
“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert”. - J Robert Oppenheimer.
I AM the SynchroMiss planted on Earth, here to share my downloads, intel, and code-cracking, integrating the art of synchronicity as we transition to a higher state of consciousness and awareness.
