I guess you should figure out how to love yourself better.
Like truly, it's probably the self-censorship that you practice that makes you and whatever you think your version of love is behave in such an uncaring, callous, and discriminatory way against others.
Censorship, huh? Well, maybe when some people stop censoring themselves so much, they'll get much better at some other things, too.

Your lack of empathy for others is absolutely f****** atrocious.
Your acquired narcissistic chauvinism and the internalized misogyny that keeps you feeling more able to "fit in" with the cult of Patriarchal White Supremacy is very bad for other human beings to keep on replicating.
So f****** prejudiced, so f****** biased, and so f****** disrespectful.
I just thank God I'm not one of the shallow white guys you constantly fawn over, to the detriment of others. Because you've really been just that brainwashed by Patriarchical White Supremacy.
Do you need a nice, comfortable home, or not? It seems like it's important to you, right?

Go exorcise your weird entity attachments or whatever.
I should spend more time in nature. It's just been so hot lately.

Just play with it, you know.
"What cartwheels and tricks will our talented brother bigot perform for us today?" You're being made an example of because you're capable of much better, and because a lot of other people are doing the same ass f****** s***. It's not just certain kinds of men who are doing this s***, you know?
Anyways, better late than never, I suppose.
I'm sorry I didn't realize earlier that your whole life set you up to be a candidate on a show with a theme that is something like "Lifestyles of the Deranged and Insanely Anti-Indigenous."
Anyways, we can blame the evil entities that were attached to you and influencing your weird f****** choices.
Whenever we look back on how interesting it was for you to have forgotten that so many other people suffered just as much as you did, and actually, a lot of them went through a lot more than you did, too.
I really can't wait to see more evidence of your healing progress though.
You'll be so much more enjoyable to experience some other year.
Slave. Mentality. Sucks.
You act like one of those people who would be a slave to their mortgage. It would blind you to what others are going through. Like a migraine headache makes me almost too blind with pain to reach for a bottle of ginger powder in the kitchen.
Sometimes the old ways are not the best ways.
Imagine being given the gift of making some really good, nourishing food, and then using your resources and talents to cater to the least sensitive in exchange for an alliance with / allegiance to the Old Corrupt Patriarchal Systems, and in the process you actually make so many other people's lives worse, just because you're following old programs and patterns and being such a f****** smug bigot about it.
Even the "Father-in-law" Spirit helps me more!
Grandmother Spirit who in her earthly life demonstrated that she cared about how the Mexican farm workers were treated even though she was never actually friends with any of them (not that I know of anyway) definitely helps me more.
That seems like a reasonable explanation to me.
They have evil spirits attached to them who are controlling their choices.
No matter how tempting it apparently is for you to replicate their behaviors...
You really should try to act less like your ancestors who were into defending themselves and their life choices and their shallow behavior patterns by acting like smug bigots.
Ugh. Too much information about stuff that's bad for my health.
I literally would die before I would adopt your shallow, unhealthy Patriarchal mindset. You were actually trained to be servile and make life more difficult for other human beings on this planet in service to an Evil Overlord.
Cult leaders have so much hierarchical Patriarchal programming b******* to deal with.
I can't believe that if I was more publicly and openly good at something, and gathered for myself even a small following of devotees, then they would give me lots of encouragement to feel entitled to arrested development in my growth as a human being, possibly even for the rest of this lifetime, but there it is.

Get up. You're capable of better.
Anyways, I guess I recommend it.
Something told me some people should read "The Pearl" by John Steinbeck. So read "The Pearl" by John Steinbeck, fragile little manipulated babies in adult bodies. Geez. Such meanies, right in front of the easily impressionable children. Just doing what the adults before did to you, I suppose.
Sorry, but it might be this way sometimes.
I'm starting to wonder if some talented people are just good at channeling and they let themselves be manipulated by external forces more than others sometimes.
I like to think of good people showing their goodness in times of trouble, too.
Maybe this is the summer when things get low, but then things will start getting better again, because in the past there were always low times and fascism got bad, and then later, things got better again.
You've been an adult for quite a while, and yet, there you are.
Smile! You're on Poor Little Fragile Child Camera.
I think we need to start saying no to dark forces.
I think some people could use some deprogramming and exorcisms and shamanic healings and whatever the f*** else they need. I don't know. People are very complicated. They all need very different things. I kind of like water lately, though. Water is so good in the summer when it's hot. Clean water is lovely for a human to experience if it's used in the proper way.
A very disturbing dream affected me last night (early morning).
I was asking for a medium to get some spirits to talk to me (I don't ever remember dreaming about that before.) I don't remember anything they said to me, except the end of the dream.
Because it was almost like only half a dream and half not a dream.
A voice said that they wanted to rob and then give me things.
They wanted to rob.
And then give me things.
And then I got quiet and then the voice got quiet and I was just like, wait a second. I don't think I want that.
Rob? And give me things?
So I stopped talking to the voice because I didn't like what it was telling me.
Maybe it's just all part of a cycle.
Maybe fascism happens when people collectively regress to times in their childhood when they felt disempowered. Then you see what their coping mechanisms were, then and now.
So many fragile boys and girls in older people's bodies...

People are really something, sometimes.
Influenced by Patriarchal Society, I would say.
Disconnected from nature, I would say.
Are there cult deprogramming services for the "hurt people hurt people?"
I literally would not want to leave certain children alone around certain kinds of people, and certain people have done a great job of reminding me of that lately.
Well, I played a yarn winding game and now I feel my better.
Maybe I'll pick up the potential gateway to a more culty lifestyle today after all.

It's been a long day of doing things other than learning how to play a ukulele.

" What happened in this place historically to make it what it is today?"
And that means, the girls of all kinds of backgrounds and situations!
It's always refreshing to see those parents who do demonstrate that they care about the well-being of girls because The Unwell Patriarchy has clearly trained so many of them to not care about the well-being of girls very much.

https://www.citybiz.co/article/878775/former-goetzes-candy-ceo-spaulding-goetze-sr-dies-at-80/
"Goetze was also deeply involved in civic and conservation efforts. He served as a longtime trustee of St. Paul’s School for Boys, leading the rebuilding of its Lower School following a 1990 fire and later supporting construction of the school’s chapel. He also supported the Comprehensive Pediatric Care Unit at the University of Maryland St. Joseph Medical Center.
An avid land conservationist and Chesapeake Bay Retriever enthusiast, Goetze spent many years living in Sparks before moving to Blakehurst Senior Living in 2024. He was active with the Greenspring Valley Council, Ducks Unlimited, and previously chaired the Maryland Wildlife Advisory Commission."
I found this after my friend who does water ballet in Baltimore said that a duck showed up to visit the pool after the CEO of a local candy company died and before that happened they themed their performance after local food products, including his candy company... And I also paid attention because I noticed a bird visiting the pool where I was swimming yesterday. It wasn't a duck, though. I can't remember what kind of bird it was.

My menstrual migraine made it hard to see, but it was a gateway into another dimension. Where sprinkling ginger powder into coconut water and letting the cat give herself a bath next to me on the bed was all I really needed.
Mindful of what the people will need in the next 100 years or so...
Do you have any insights about why some people seem to get so much more pleasure from gatekeeping than from helping others? My period was light, I thought maybe it was gone, I got a terrible headache, I was super thirsty, then it came back. Oh the mystery! And that's the special type of blood that's supposed to have super healing properties is what they're saying now. Is there any artistic expression in the universe about something like that yet?
Maybe it's an orientation thing.
I guess the universe encouraging you to be mindful about what things are going to be like within the next few decades or more is like an orientation?
In lieu of other things I could be saying...
I also feel like my spirit was in a car with some people who weren't talking that much about unresolved issues but they were going to this important event and they were going to have fun but still.

So many people have been responding to her by pointing out times when "illegals" have committed violent crimes.
They don't point out all the times when white men have done it! Why not?
We have an incredibly racist society.
It was valuable.
I feel like there was a book I read where some guy had to get his crown yanked out of his mouth when he got put in a concentration camp. It affected his eating. The book might have been Night by Elie Wiesel. That's not the sort of book I would like to reread very often.
I did swim, and then I had lunch.
I don't really like how I feel so maimed in the mouth every time I eat a substantial meal, on account of having a very strange front tooth now.
My legs were itchy, so I had to shower first. I think the chlorine might have been too high. I think I heard them talking about it.
But it was a good swim.
Sure, they should act like they know how to use their words, right?

Looks mattered.
"In the early days of my time in Vaassen, my mother would visit the Van Deelen family once a month. That's how I knew she was alive, loved me, and under the circumstances was doing reasonably well. She didn't look Jewish, so she was able to move about with relative ease. Much later I found out that Mother had a false identity card even with a name vaguely resembling her own."
"At school, no one except the principal knew my true identity. That was very much to my advantage because the son of the leader of the local NSB -- the Dutch Nazi party -- was in my class.
I used to bike to school. There was a checkpoint along the way, where the police occasionally asked to see my ID, but --as it lacked the necessary J-- it always went quite smoothly. Whenever necessary, I'd tell them I was Mr. Van Beek's nephew."
"During my years underground, I couldn't be seen naked -- not in front of the boys and certainly not in front of any girls! Swimming would have been a problem, too, were it not for the fact that the farmer had been good enough to add real changing stalls to his homemade swimming pool."
"In the late summer of 1944, shortly after the Allies had been defeated at the Dutch town of Arnhem, My mother came to live with the van Beeks as well. Around the same time, the school next to our house was confiscated by a company of Dutch volunteers in the Waffen-SS. It soon became clear that we hadn't merely acquired a group of SS soldiers as neighbors but that some of them were also moving in with us."
"I was forced to address my mother as 'aunt.' I didn't even think of it as a problem: I simply did it. I had to if I was to survive."
" I never once saw my father. He had gone underground in the small town of Hattem. He looked more Jewish than either my mother or me, and so for him, it was better never to be seen at all. He was forced to be 'cellular' as we used to call it then: locked up inside his house."

Reading about the inventor of the "Guess Who" game.
"I moved in with Mr. And Mrs. Van Beek, with whom I would stay until Liberation Day, which in my case would be April 17, 1945. The Van Beeks had no children of their own and seemed happy to receive a "ready-made" child -- and an obedient one at that."
"Barend van Beek was the headmaster of the local Christian Elementary School. I would become like a son to him and he like a father to me. In the winter, we'd go skating together. Once a week, I visited Reverend Van Deelen's son Chris to play chess. Chris was my age and, like me, wasn't a farmer's son.
I went to the same school as Chris did, for, unlike other children in hiding, I was able to go to school. It was all due to the fact that a few years earlier, after the German occupation, my father had failed to complete the required form concerning the origin of my grandparents."

It's nice. It's peaceful.
A cat comes in to say hello. A cat watches a human enjoying a back scratch. That probably makes sense. We must look so boring when we're on our phones and computers all the time. So boring. What are they doing on their phones and their computers all the time? Shoelaces are better. Shoelaces are fun for the cat.
It makes you wonder why so many women are still so self-deprecating.
I feel I've learned the hard way that if I put myself down, the Patriarchy just runs right with it. The Patriarchy is not exactly a deep thinker. Do you think the Patriarchy's going to help me out with my issues? Dream On.
Not today, swimming pool.
Waking up tired already...But I am looking forward to having an interesting day anyway.
Humans are here to learn things.
We have to ask for grace and forgiveness from higher sources because we just accidentally got so involved in what we were perceiving that we couldn't see what was going on as much as some who are more balanced or are more in touch with their spiritual health could.
It's like the never-ending lesson.
Learning how to take better care of yourself when you've got a trickier set of genetics to deal with...it is challenging. Well, other people can just be different with their different genetics. They can have the fun they can have.
I had some pain issues and I heard my cat also sounding like she didn't feel well and now she's sleeping relatively peacefully but I had to get up and do some things. I had to drink some apple cider vinegar in cinnamon water and stuff because I was irresponsible with the way I was eating today.
So I suppose I will try to fall asleep soon. Because...sigh. People can think you're interesting, but it doesn't mean that they know what's best for you. You have to figure out what's best for you and sometimes it's difficult.
People just don't know, sometimes. So, they have a lot to learn. Perhaps it's best to make peace with that. And then when you do, find people who seem good at being intuitive or if you get better at being intuitive yourself, you can celebrate that, too.
Always have to focus on health first.
Always getting reminded that I have a special needs situation to attend to.
I'm either going to look up small little vacation excursion ideas or just think about them now.
I almost kind of want to go on a fishing retreat or something. They have stuff like that around here.
I hear the train a coming...
I'm not going to sleep for a while because I'm taking advantage of this long stretch of after hours, everyone else is sleeping, past two o'clock in the morning, calm feeling I am feeling. It's healing for my nervous system. I have to luxuriate in it right now. It's like a free spa treatment.
Whose fault is it???
I just don't know how to punish anybody for their terrible attitudes and all the gnarly panic attacks I suffered from over the years. Especially as I began to enter a certain era.
I lost my number 8 tooth. I have almost no tooth left there. Just a little bit.

For a second, I thought this guy looked a little bit like Otto Frank, but actually they looked quite different.
I guess there's just a certain style of dress going on there or something.

Why don't you let yourself go...
And read Anne Frank's diary? It's a really interesting year to read it because all the days of the week line up this year with the days of the week in 1942 when she moved into the hiding place, the secret annex.
I feel hot and I feel bad for the women who had to hide in an attic during perimenopause.
I don't even think they used to talk about perimenopause very much. It was just like "fertile" and then "getting older and letting yourself go" and then "menopause."
