Out there...

I feel that the intelligence from higher realms should not kill off my feminism, even if they might help me have a more balanced Earth plane experience, and possibly brighten other people's complexions.

Ah...parents!

Some of them sound like they are the kinds some therapists would love to talk to you about.

Actually, I changed my mind.

I think I just want to listen to the birds outside right now. 

I think I should listen to those other songs later.

I heart music so much because it's so therapeutic.

I think I'm going to listen to this one for the first time now...

Sharon Van etten - "Jupiter 4"

https://youtu.be/W4etGf2PJcA?si=DnquV7a9OfWzvC7y

But I'll do it after I listen to this good old standby... 

Sharon Van Etten - "Your Love Is Killing Me"

https://youtube.com/watch?v=nyuPWHwZru0&si=Lh7JAKe_mWNFaOic

It's kind of nice because after you listen to an angry song a few times, it starts to feel calming.

We're living in a time of a lot of societal change. Who can fault individual music choices in times like these?

Time for an herbal libation. Or slightly caffeinated? I have to look at the vast collection of tea.

It's cold outside in the morning. It makes me think of loggers in the Pacific Northwest, and now I'm going to retreat back indoors again. Even the cat is not sure if she wants to go out.

Lots of art and nature particular to a region

Got to enjoy the kind of weather that's good for when you want to go out and visit the desert again.

I did not actually know there was going to be a squirrel and flying saucer mural inside of an establishment because I got it mixed up with another place. Off and on, I looked at the poetry book I found when I visited a library in the desert. 

The squirrel mural place had two men taking care of a baby who they put on little chair in the middle the table. I didn't get a good picture of them.

I came back and decided to have a cocktail with cacao in it. 

Then I went somewhere else and just sat for a while, listening to music and looking at photos.

The outdoor world beckons now...🏜️

I spent some quality indoor time with nature and I tried to teach the daily energy routine; it wasn't quite a great success, but it was a start.

One last tawdry read before I go out and enjoy some good wholesome quality time with nature.

"FBI Probed 4Chan Poster Over Epstein's Death" - Business Insider

https://www.businessinsider.com/epstein-files-show-fbi-probed-4chan-posts-prison-death-2026-2

Just taking a little break from the bird watching!

 


Want to know a "secret?"

I literally used to think to myself that if I got richer someday, maybe I would go to a Deepak Chopra spa.

"Deepak Chopra messages in Epstein files: 'Bring your girls' and 'zero in on your prey.'"

https://www.fastcompany.com/91496935/deepak-chopra-jeffrey-epstein-files-read-controversial-text-messages-emails-bring-your-girls

Hah! What?????

Think of something A LOT better!

I noticed I don't enjoy the Orange Theory commercial where the woman says that since she went from a size 10 to a size 2, now she's "the role model her students deserve."

They should have had her say:

"They all love me SO much more now that I'm at an extra small size."

Disturbing, isn't it? 

I think so. I'm disturbed.

Disturbed, disturbed, disturbed, disturb, disturbed, disturbed disturb.

Now I'm going to eat my late breakfast which is hash browns and two eggs with Texas Pete sauce and arugula and spinach and micro greens on it.

Maybe I'll read some more poems while I eat them.

Well, fellas...

At least they put Ghislaine Maxwell in jail!

Feeling some New Orleans influence, even though I've never been there... And then other influences came.

After I opened a book I got for free at a library in the desert, I wanted to listen to:

"tori amos blood roses live from new york 23 1 1997"

toriamosrules1

https://youtube.com/watch?v=8cGLU6W8-Qw&si=ExsHyBFRBDPwXFlr

The book I got for free at the library is "Or Consequence" by Cynthia Hogue.  

They were giving away books for some reason. It opened to: "The Treasurer's Daughter (New Orleans 1867/1997)"


Then I found this one online:

"The Daughter by Cynthia Hogue" - Poems | Academy of American Poets

https://poets.org/poem/daughter-1

And then I felt like jumping into the car. Wow! Maybe they'll start playing Tori Amos songs on SiriusXM soon.


And they should bring the Spa music station back. 

Conan still on?

Well, it's weird because the station wasn't in the comedy channel lineup, but then I looked it up on my phone and turned it to the number and it said "Conan O'Brien Radio." So I guess that's means he's there right? Yeah, he's there.


The comedian's talking about tits and taco trucks in LA. Oh he ended his set by talking about strip clubs and he said, "Are these dancers free range?"

Fan video! And comments.

Among other things...

I have wondered if some people will need to take special classes on how to be better at communicating with the portion of the population who survived the kidnappings / detention center experience.

Lucky.🫐🌿🥣

I think a small bowl of frozen wild blueberries with fresh rosemary is going to be my dessert tonight.

The ancestors' bodies had very physically taxing lives.

I feel like my relatives and ancestors grew and harvested a lot of food. And I've read that PCOS creates a condition where the body perceives itself to be in a state of famine. 

And some even think that this type of PCOS body might have evolved because it helped some bodies survive famines. Since this is the body I'm living in, it's hard for me to not see food as really important to our survival, I guess.

I don't mean like it has to be terrible food. In fact, that's the opposite of what I mean. What about having access to the really healthy stuff? That's important, isn't it? And nobody can grow and harvest all of that healthy food all by themselves.

Hmmm.

I kind of do want to know how many people think they could be living with energy that came from another time or another lifetime. I mean, at some point, I might want to know. And how would you know that. Like would you have flashbacks, memories or dreams, or would you just have a feeling or a vibe, or would you hear things, or all of the above, or how would that manifest.

Sometimes mistakes work out!

I accidentally froze golden berries instead of refrigerating or dehydrating them. They're very good! I will probably freeze more in the future. Although, maybe some of the teeth are not very fond of biting on them.

I kind of think alter sounds better.

I guess some people are just wired differently sometimes.

I'm really disappointed at how cold and hard and mean many of the show business people turned out to be. So maybe I do like to find the content where people are freaking out over the Epstein files. It reminds me that people can have sensitivity, and being sensitive is normal.

I truly cannot deal with their insensitivities and their anti-feminism sometimes. Things that are tolerable to other people could make me throw up. It's really too bad, I suppose. Can't deal with their selfishness right now. I'd rather die in obscurity than act like they do. 

"Toxic positivity." Happy Nazis. Bizarrely fascist and utterly self-absorbed. Assholes. Everything's about their pleasure today, and barely any flicker of acknowledgement in regards to bigger picture issues. Who needs that? 

Apparently other people are more into that stuff than I am. Apparently, other people's bodies don't want to throw up around the survival strategies of selfish jerks. It's the fraternity party atmosphere I really don't need.

More not so popular opinion...

A lot of middle class people are like the masculine Elon. They're not that bad to sit next to on an airplane. They're even quite nice. But when you start to get to know them, they're so obsessed with their own status and their own money, to a fault. And they get a lot of their identity from having kids.

However, there was also a feminine Elon in my life. This was a friend of my mother's, and she gave me that "Circle of Stones" book about women honoring their menstrual cycles. 

"Circle of Stones: Woman's Journey to Herself by Judith Duerk"

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/588251.Circle_of_Stones

I remembered her name...No, I didn't, not right away. She inscribed it in the book, which she gave to me when I was in middle school. And I saved it. Then, years later, I took it down and read the inscription, and that's when I remembered her name.

She was a creative woman and she was married but she didn't have kids. She liked to do crafts with us. I remember thinking to myself, "Gosh I could be like her one day."

So maybe some middle-class people are more like the feminine Elon, who was a woman. 

I really need feminism way more than you, huh?

Isn't it crazy?

So anyways, this guy's basically like, well, a stalker who did not actually physically harm anybody I personally know, but also, perhaps our culture just needed to be different to help somebody like him. I mean, maybe he had some Spirits guiding him. You know, maybe we do need to have a better culture that believes more in things like that. I don't know. I don't hate him. I can feel empathy for him too. But I still just don't really trust him.

Just a feeling, that's all.

I really think it's more more to like ideas than to make big expensive things happen.

Sometimes the second thing only happens after the first can occur.

Oh well. Good thing most people aren't locked away in the detention centers, I guess.

Poor injured bodies. Good healing is here now.

There are some things that are mending and getting better. 

Real damage was done on account of a lack of understanding and lack of funds and lack of caring.

Prayers and patience and trusting in the universe more is helpful.

Crisises happened, and now there is more healing.


Poor country.

I'm ashamed of our country because of the ICE raids and the detention centers and other things.

Cassettes were magic! Especially at a dark hour.

Memory of something nice playing on a cassette tape while others were sleeping, and the house was dark. Maybe it could have been "The Moonlit Sonata" or some such thing. Love.

A few thoughts before hopefully returning to slumber...

My houseguest left yesterday, and waking up early, there is the feeling in this place of wanting her back again. And another feeling arises, a belief system: It is so much better to feel more. How sad are people who must shut down and guard their hearts? Like some relatives who became less articulate and seem exceedingly attached to materialistic things. Poor little them? And naturally, if they must shut down, they never want to say sorry for anything. They could just say "Sorry you suffered, sorry about that abusive other one," but that's too much for them. I don't think it would be too much for me at all. I would say it in a minute. That's why I think growing up in a conservative Christian cult with strict rules and gender roles did not help them.

I'm not feeling very advanced, and I also feel like sometimes people don't want to heal things because they've done great work and they get some, what's it called, secondary benefits or something? No,there was a different term for it. Secondary gains? There are times when it's really obvious that not all people can be a part of certain tight-knit, cozy communities. There's like, a very big wall there. And it kind of reminds me that there are things that were around me, that were sort of put in front of me, like this is something you could do or be. And I get really strong feelings that actually, the universe didn't want me to do or be those things; that I was supposed to go elsewhere, and that I was supposed to do other things. I was just supposed to observe that those things exist, and then I was supposed to go somewhere else. So it's very strange to be thinking about that right now.

I can remember having an experience in the 2000s when I was driving across the Midwest, probably to Chicago, enjoying listening to music so much while on a road trip by myself, and I kind of had a question and answer session with myself: Do you want to hang out with more people in the music industry? And I said to myself, No, I do not. Because I felt like it was a hyper masculine and stressful industry, and the girls were encouraged to act like groupies, and I didn't want anything to do with it. But I still enjoyed listening to music on my road trips in my car.

"The agent’s voice crackled from the car’s speaker, loud enough to carry through the open window: 'How’s your mother, Cesar? We’ll go visit her soon.'

Vasquez drove straight home and found his mother washing clothes.

'I took her car keys and told her to stop everything she’s doing. My hands were shaking,' Vasquez said. 'I then moved her to a secret location that I have precisely for this moment.'

Vasquez’s mother is one of the thousands of undocumented farm workers in Santa Maria whom he is trying to protect. She left her home in a tiny town in Mexico to cross the US-Mexico border at age 13 in search of a better life. Vasquez’s biological father was one of the first people she encountered – a Guatemalan American whose family was settled in California and who held US citizenship. He was also abusive and never legally married her, keeping her from accessing US citizenship, Vasquez said. When Vasquez was an infant, his mother ran away with her three children to Santa Maria, a town about 150 miles (240km) north of Los Angeles, where she found work in the strawberry fields. She has been trying to secure documentation for more than a dozen years now."

Dreams...what are they for, really?

Think about it. And I also really encourage some people to think about all the people who do not have the "luxury" of getting through life by relying on a fawn response, or by relying on other people's fawn responses.

Sometimes you stay in...

Sometimes you go to town...

Lessons learned from "The Ox-Cart Man."

Enough with that already. That's what Facebook is for. (Apparently).

People could write more about what they're learning from their lives being not so idyllic, maybe.

Maybe this is where the higher intelligences can get through.

Kind of had a farmworker dream.

Dreamed that there was some kind of good outcome after difficulty and drama in a rural area, and that had to do with a young white girl who was impoverished and a young hard-working Latino farmworker. They were both connected to a farm. They were in danger of losing something. He decided they would get married, and she agreed / went along with it and the voice that was talking to me said they were very happy together and they had an idyllic life with kids.

I just kind of wondered why I was supposed to know about that when it's so different from what happened in my life, really. I was observing and listening. I feel like being alone inside of the empty farm buildings after traveling through many fields, and cultivating a deep sense of wonder and curiosity about life was mainly what was happening for me.

Humans are ridiculous, and it's fine.

Look, she even made art and a bunch of money. I wonder how she managed it? Maybe God helped her?

This is a time of access to more knowledge.

What if it's an optimal time to learn about how to make good changes that can help you take much better care of yourself as an act of love for yourself and for humanity?

Nature's impressive.

 


A little bit of alternative healing therapy.

It seemed like sitting crosslegged in the desert while playing around on a small Panda drum I got as a gift was good for some lower back and hip issues. Cygnus showed up when I viewed the landscape through the Stellarium app as we were leaving, and so did Pegasus and other constellations.

I'm in a special needs cycle.

I'll just have to get better at embracing being a special needs person in a special needs cycle and know that maybe we can find some good, nature-oriented, healing kinds of things...

Perhaps there will be some different descriptions soon...

Delicious authentic Mexican food it is.

Unfortunately, the restaurant next to "The End Of The World" art piece is a NO because photos show that it looks just a little too much like a fraternity party atmosphere.

Do I believe in synchronicity?

I think maybe she was skating in Milan while I was having shirodhara oil poured on my forehead for the first time!

"What time does Alysa Liu actually skate today?

Alysa Liu actually skates at 4:40 p.m. ET, which is 10:40 p.m. locally in Italy.

She's the final U.S. competitor to go."

The appointment was supposed to be between 1 and 2 p.m. in CA (three hours behind East Coast time), but there was rain and we got turned around and arrived 15 minutes late. And then we had to prepare but nobody was after us, so I think we (my sister and I) still got the full hour long appointment. We left by 2:30 p.m. It was her idea. Well it was kind of both of our ideas because I suggested it. She made the appointment.
