Maybe I'll be puzzling or baking or I might go up to a winery, but I don't know. Yet...

This evening I got coffee jitters after drinking not even one whole cup of Blonde Roast coffee in the morning. I got them hours and hours and hours later. There's so much energy to process in an Earth life, I guess? Maybe I should do something usefully movement oriented? Maybe listen to this again...

Feels like your ancestors who made it possible for you to be here have left their mark.

Oh I get it, you feel you need more alcohol to help you forget about all the labour that went into growing the fruit that other people needed to cultivate and harvest for you.

God, direct my attention to whatever helps me develop more patience.

It's as if I don't understand the appeal of the self-absorption of some of the famous ones in this era in a way that's hard to communicate because some people don't want to see how it's also very limiting and damaging to be so self-serving, and there's so much around them that's working to keep them sheltered from other realities. I don't get that shelter, but I also don't even want it. I may want some kind of shelter, but that is not the kind of shelter I am seeking. It feels like that kind of shelter or filter is putting limits on their awareness and ability to perceive the world around them. It's limiting their abilities. They get rewarded for their role in keeping things smaller and more manageable for Patriarchal Systems. Shutting out and shutting down and getting praised for that behavior is part of an old pattern that they are repeating. But maybe I just need to look at something else, or somewhere else. Sometimes that would be a much better thing for me to do.

It's this kind of thing I want to ask of some people.

What about just living a more healthy and balanced life, versus putting stuff out to make it seem like you're more worthy of being here?

Complaining as a spiritual practice.

I feel like this life has taught me that some people who get accolades and prizes for their creations can still be very disappointingly irresponsible at taking any accountability for their own healing, and they behave in ways that are shady and dishonest. And it causes harm. The harm they do to themselves extends to how they treat others.

Where does greatness originate, anyways?

That's probably not forever, either.

Only the cult of culinary cat lovers sounds even a little bit fun. At this point in time in this history in this era.

This life is not forever.

I do think I have a while further to go in this life, but I still reserve the right to feel irritated when I can tell something is kind of messed up and needs to get some of the kinks worked out. And I am very disinclined to join any cults.

I bet. Maybe I'd even bet moneyyy...

I bet being more careful and conscientious and  environmental and less culty would be an excellent health care choice.

Really looking forward to humans getting smarter.

But for some reason, I really don't think I can watch that other film right now. I felt creeped out by the trailer. How much of the protagonist's identity revolves around having a wife and a baby? "Every good man in a historic film should have someone like them around to brighten up his character."  It's that squeaky styrofoam / nails on chalkboard feeling. "Run away. Run away. Run away!" Like Monty Python. I don't know, I guess it could change in the future, but that's how it feels right now, and it made me think about the women at this conference.

https://freethoughtnow.org/charlie-kirk-glorifies-a-life-of-subordination-for-women-and-girls-at-young-womens-leadership-summit/

It's like they want to go back to some 1800s style of living and their crowning achievement is to be a mother and a wife. Well, I guess that's fine for some people. But if everybody just wants to act quiet and nice all the time when they have feelings like this about certain things, then how quickly will any progress ever be made?

Maybe I just have to watch a historic film about a woman who had a bunch of kids and then her husband died and so she went insane and got put into an asylum and then seemed to get better so took her back but then she went crazy again so then they put her back in the asylum. And there she lived out the rest of her days. Maybe I have to watch a film like that.

Maybe not everybody has to do that?

Have fun figuring that out! In this life or the next.

"OPINION: Aesthetic feminism is super anti-feminist"

https://tsl.news/opinion-aesthetic-feminism-is-super-anti-feminist/

On to the next thing, on to the next thing, on to the next thing..

Sometimes I really do wonder if more people could get better at acknowledging there were times when they did enjoy advantages over others. 

If we get more evolved, we could do this not so much as a self-shaming thing, but as a way to strive towards enjoying good humane qualities like honesty and truthfulness and compassion. 

Our brains are wired very strangely sometimes, because of what went into them when we were in our formative years, and because the world was hard on our nerves. But perhaps we could still rewire our brains and some of our patterns. That could help us recognize that having compassion for others can be part of having compassion for self too.

It can be hard and painful to live this Earth experience sometimes. Physically, emotionally, and etcetra. It's actually kind of challenging sometimes to figure out what's going on, isn't it? Especially when there's a lot of adverse circumstances to deal with.

If you feel affected by certain segments of society, it feels like there's all these patterns around you that are trying to make it so you do not change too much. They want you to keep on going along with the same old patterns. A lot of people can't do that anymore, though.

Taking a little break from thinking about this right now. Maybe just time to regulate the nervous system a bit more.

It's a feeling.

Thinking that some people could do a little bit more deep thinking about their personal preferences and fashion choices as well.

And let's not forget Louise Solmitz.

"Charlie Hill Stand Up Comedy | The Richard Pryor Show"

https://youtube.com/watch?v=kFSoWpYjkzc&si=LNy_j5Q3crWJhRfM

In the dream I was in the backyard of a house and a whole bunch of people came in while  I was sitting on the ground by myself. They were rude and bullying, like they wanted to have a party back there and they didn't care, and they definitely wanted to be mean, and they weren't going to leave. But then I started chewing on my lip. It was very fat and swollen. They watched me do that and they started to get horrified. In particular I remember a woman who was probably a mom but also a bully watching me chew on the lip with a horrified look on her face. I said, "Leave me alone!" and then I heard some other people coming into the house. I went inside, and they were all men. I was going to shove them into the backyard to show those people that they were now more people from inside of the house coming out to see what shenanigans they were up to. And then the bullies  in the backyard actually left. I said, "They shouldn't have acted that way!"

Guess it will be another day to heal more?

Humans can still heal more from:

a bunch of experiences

overall human flakiness

old patterns that some who were adversely affected by patriarchal society were expected to follow.

Have to get some sleep somehow.

I could feel the heaviness of some of the things that are going on, and I walked into the living room and an ad for the film "The Darkest Hour" was on the TV screen and so I finished the thought with "The darkest hour is just before dawn" and now I might look at some humorous, silly things.

Nature noises.

Ran into some stupid people shooting at birds with guns when they shouldn't have been so the day should get better now.

Coin detectors at the beach are noisy though.

Hangry.

The patriarchy preys on insecure people so that they will be distractions.

I hope you feel better soon. I'm sorry the patriarchy wants you to feel like you must fight to survive so much that you have to put blinders on constantly.

I heard that Anne Frank tried to take care of younger kids when she was in the camp.

 I expect that among the children there will be some older ones trying to take care of the younger ones. I heard that Anne Frank did that.

And you're not the only insensitive one, obviously.

You've had enough ego feeding. There's enough people suffering because people like you don't care about the people like them. And you are just so completely desperate to work within the system in order to make yourself feel a little bit more powerful that it seems like it's no matter to you whose well-being is sacrificed. You cannot pay me to feed your ego. Bottomless. That's what the unhealed version of you is like. Bottomless Ravenous Ego.

It sounded like The Patriarchy was a very bad babysitter.

There was a guy who said he was outside of a detention center and he could hear children inside screaming. And he recorded a little bit of it. Then they made him leave.

But why isn't there a better option?

"Now what you should do is act like the rich patriarchal women are what rich patriarchal men used to be."

But why? Because is it only a monetary tradeoff? What else do you get out of it?

"My paternalistic attitude demeans you."


That's your designation in this Patriarchal Society.

"You're worthless compared to my father. You're worthless compared to my husband. You're worthless compared to my house. You're worthless compared to other women who knew how to play the game better than you and know how to act like men are worth more than you are."

The system is set up for them to treat you that way, huh?

How many women have treated you like you were worthless compared to a man, and especially a man with money. 

This is what happens when the old cocaine mechanisms are no longer sustainable!

They should have named a soap opera that. "Childish and Cruel."

Another day to have more patience with the childish and the cruel.

Really looking forward to it, too!

I'm sure some of the descendants will be able break out of the old pattern. And it will even be for something much better. That would be so good for their health, don't you think?

We're happy you're a much better person.

Kristi Noem (a mother) versus you.

I bet at least one of them had loving parents.

Jeffrey Epstein supposedly had loving parents.

It's a thing to wonder.

Did the ICE agents who killed a nurse yesterday have loving mothers and fathers?

Not so pretty. Watch it if you're up to it, I guess?

"(Part 1/3) The Holocaust Started In Appalachia (and continued well after World War II.)"

I saw this thing about how the Holocaust started in Appalachia.

I'm so pretty. I can birth babies. I'm awesome at exploiting other people. I'm special!

"Look at me! See how companionable and comical I am?"

Yes, and you have such nice, soft fur. You must be a cat!

Just quit it and do some inner work.

You're never pretty enough, or rich enough, or special enough. And apparently you can never tell enough lies. Very strange. Appalling, even. 

Values. Exist. Don't they? What are they. 

It's too out of hand.

People will literally back criminals so they can afford to make themselves look prettier.

So annoying.

"How to be pretty enough and rich enough and special enough to feel like dehumanizing and oppressing others is my birthright."

Pretty or prettiness-oriented people are the worst sometimes.

Cats are so much prettier. Effortlessly attractive, never trying to use how they look to get something. 

Figure it out.

Also, might as well pray for the level of shallowness in the culture that went unchecked and made some people think a criminal would do what they wanted. In Minnesota, more violence and the killing of a mother and a nurse by the ones who are acting like unthinking and violent goons. The people in charge gaslight and manipulate and use tax payer money for nefarious purposes. They are acting like terrible infants and terrorists.

Will the duties never end?

I am still so bothered by how some people almost seem too addicted to acting like the external is more important than what's going on internally.

I think there are many people who must have felt very neglected in their formative years, and so they trained themselves to act like external markers of success were more important than the internal state of health.

This is supposed to bring them what they were taught to value most, which could be a sense of importance or social acceptance or access to materialistic things, or a feeling of control. 

But the neglect has been painful; the fear and disengagement and need to manipulate and alter the narrative is not a good coping mechanism.

Time to get better.

Suffering because some people are acting like they are not as motivated to believe that the internal is as important as the external has been a learning experience.

More can believe that people deserve better.

When people are coereced into being more focused on the external to the point where they neglect the internal then people's health suffers, and this is sad. People deserve better.

Belief systems are evolving...

I feel like I have a belief that gets activated about humans putting health and care first as a way for humanity to evolve more

People can expand their capacity to heal and feel better by putting health and healing first, and that is perhaps more important than creating anything.

Although sometimes creating things can be part of the healing process, and bring people a lot of joy.

But humans can go beyond acting like loveableness is connected to creative output.

As long as the Lord has the best of intentions.

May the Lord bless The Resistance.

Annoying memories of the system.

I think I'll go drink some tea.

I feel like saying I'm just not that motivated to work the system.

Early 2026.

A very violent year will make you say at least the National Guard should have much better training. It's sad to live in a country where stuff like this happens for seemingly no good reason except that it shows people are filled with ignorance and anger that they don't know how to manage.

Like a breath of fresh air.

Maybe it's good for more souls who can be a kind version of nice to tap into that when it helps with the stuff we're going through.

(Earlier, I thought I posted about feeling upset about things going on, and it got lost. I don't know where it went. It vanished.)

Noticing nature!

 




What era are we in. What time is it.

Perhaps it's time to start believing you deserve to have better days, and then you can start having them.

And now looking up "egregious."

Because of this other new-to-me word: "Egregore."

Life in a body; lessons in a body.

I've been getting some indications that some people are going to have to start being more attentive to internal health and less fixated on the external. And that more intentional honesty and clarity with  communication would really be beneficial for health reasons.

Who knows. It all feels very fragile, though.

Why do some people with more stability in their upbringing seem to feel at home with authoritarianism? It almost seems to make sense when somebody has more instability in their upbringing. Like they think (incorrectly I would say) that aligning themselves with authoritarian principles and institutions will bring them the stability they missed out on.

Look at how medicine is evolving!

I really think that if your society was more healing-oriented, you wouldn't have as many people joining the current corrupt iteration of ICE for whatever benefits they find appealing enough to make it worth their while.

Got another question for The Lord.

Dear Lord, what is your opinion on patriarchal people with unhealed issues who never get any encouragement to heal their issues because they're really great at being very successful according to the cultural standards of this era just as they are. Asking on behalf of the multitudes.

That sounds cool. 🪷🌚🪷🌚🪷🌚🪷

Clearly, the world is filled with people who haven't gotten the therapy or help that they really need and they can be very successful but still need some extra help. I guess I will pray for people to find more of what helps and heals them. And I will endeavor to do more of the same for myself.

Everything changes all the time.

I did have some fun today. I still have duties to address medical things and communication things. So many duties. I think I will go for another yin yoga session.

Sure, she got to listen to something more relaxing later.

Some books I thought I might want to read in the future, for fun.

Versus the books I actually bought.

Life on Earth is good to us.

It gives us such a wonderful opportunity to dream. 

And then, even more opportunity to learn important lessons (which might seem to contrast sharply with some of those dreams.)
