Who says you should have any feelings about this or any other story in the news…which is largely designed to seed and sow fear, uncertainty, and doubt about things “over there” that you have zero ability to directly impact?

The best thing you can do for yourself is to disengage. That doesn’t mean being ignorant (I still scan headlines occasionally), but it does mean being a lot more selective about what you do consume and engage with.

We’ve been led to believe that everything is scarce. They divide us and continue to point out those differences, inciting fear and anger. They’ve taken it a step further and forced their mental illnesses on the rest of us.

Meanwhile, walk out in nature and see its abundance everywhere you look. The animal kingdom naturally aligns to what should be in the same space and what should not (predator/prey relationships). Animals defend themselves, too.

Because the food system is broken AF, Princess Pheonix of The Lotus (npub142a…ccwa) and I buy our chicken from a local farmer, whom I visited today…they have eggs again, so I got some.

Store eggs have yellow yolks, whereas these yolks are bright orange. The eggs taste better, too. Unlike CAFO birds, these chickens are fed a species-appropriate diet. The meat is also much higher quality.

Better to support a local farmer instead of a mega corporation. And I pay them in cash so the payment mafia doesn’t take their cut.

People think doing what everyone else is doing is “safe” because, well, everyone else is doing it. It doesn’t require work above and beyond mimicry.

True enlightenment comes from walking alone with God, the universe, the Divine, or whatever you call it. It takes real work that some people won’t do in this lifetime. It also takes courage, since society tends to discourage non-conformity.

And with everyone’s personal economy in the shitter, it doesn’t bode well for the strip, as it’s currently constructed.

Why does cryptocurrency feel like a cult? BeCaUsE eVeRy OnE sHoUlD uSe It, so say proponents.

Why, exactly? So my financial transactions are public record on a blockchain? So I can add even MORE intermediaries between me and the person I am trying to send money to? So my money can be potentially taken due to malware with zero recourse? And to pay whom, exactly?

Don't tell me "this crypto is more secure" either. As someone who's been doing #cybersecurity for 30 years, I know better.

Anyone ever see the Wayback Machine pull an archived version of a site that it previously had?

Princess Pheonix of The Lotus (npub142a…ccwa) has some sort of assignment, which specified going to a specific date where a given site was archived. Her lab partner found it a few days earlier, but today: that archive date is no longer there.

The ER nearly killed me last year by injecting me full of a drug I already tookj before showing up that caused my heart to race...and they wanted to give me another drug to slow down my heart rate.

I reversed Type 2 Diabetes nearly a decade ago despite having a doctor who prescribed me medication that made the condition worse.

So, yeah, I don't trust the medical system. At all. And my boss actually saw me have an allergic reaction to food earlier this year.

That's going to trigger some changes, I can assure you.

that might require a more detailed question but I did draw a card or three with you in mind.

Death is needed to clear away space for the new. When inverted, it suggests there may be something you need to let go of that you’re not so that something new may come into your life.

The cards I drew after suggest this is leading to the feelings of decreased love and abundance when you certainly deserve to revel in both as is your birthright.

Right before my divorce a few years ago, I was drawn to Tarot and started asking questions. Perhaps for the first time, my intuition spoke clearly and loudly to me on a particular draw.

After several months of not using my Tarot deck, I brought it out again and tried to ask a question. This time, my intuition didn't have to shout to get my attention.

When I asked the Universe for answers...oh, boy, did it provide them.

On the plus side, I've just figured out the relatively simple explanation behind the darkest period of my life...and how the poison of that time persisted throughout decades of my life unnecessarily.

I forgive myself...for not knowing what I was dealing with, or knowing what I know now, and acting the way I did then.

I know who I am now. I don't need anyone's approval. I am enough.
