This one looks good! It's out of order but that's okay.

"Revenge of 'A Good Walk Spoiled'” | Revisionist History 

https://www.pushkin.fm/podcasts/revisionist-history/revenge-of-a-good-walk-spoiled

I'm going to go back to my puzzle now.

I never finished my Lady Liberty's Independence Day Enterprising Stanley Casimir Pulaski Groceries puzzle this summer and it a little bit reminds me of the Salem Customs House now. But it's been quite a while, so I hope I didn't lose any pieces from it.

Maybe I can listen to some of Malcolm Gladwell's podcast again. I used to always listen to him when I was working on puzzles. 

Can it help, somehow?

Today the universe wanted me to think about Salem, MA a little bit (I visited it in the winter of 2005 with some friends when I was in grad school) and also about how I was in a blizzard in Charleston, South Carolina in 2018 and that delayed my plane several times, and then when I finally flew back, I ended up getting recognized (I now believe) by Elon in the Atlanta airport and then he decided to get on the plane I was on because he recognized me, but I didn't remember him. Although I did sense his presence. But he recognized me because I had talked to him at the La Brea Tar Pits Museum years before because one of his sons asked for help because the parents weren't listening to him, and I sort of nicely stood up to his father and his father liked that and remembered me enough so that he wanted to sit next to me on the plane, and then the plane had to emergency land in Memphis and it was really scary and I felt like he went up and talked to the pilot and helped the plane land and so he actually helped us. But he was not the sort of Elon you see in the news; he was this quiet and reticent guy who just tried to make a little chit chat now and then. And then he sat next to me again on the next plane that went to LA. But I was only half thinking about him if he tried to make conversation with me because I was thinking about Margaux Fragoso more. And then later that year, I finally figured out who he was because he started dating Grimes, who was one of my favorite musicians.

Lol. Because people are like that.

I think people should get really good at examining all kinds of messages that they received even from earliest childhood onwards about how people communicate with each other when it comes to trying to get stuff from each other.

That was a unique experience.

I remember the time I got very sick on a meditation retreat (kidney infection). After I began my antibiotics, I stayed in bed at night and as I was feverish, I heard everyone else dancing and having fun upstairs, pounding on the ceiling, and I could not get away from the noise, so I gave in and felt like I was tapping into some kind of vibrant healing energy just by listening to them. (I don't want to get sick on a retreat again like that, but it was something.)

Maybe maybe maybe

Maybe it's a natural phenomenon and a good quality that people still want to have a regular life and have fun even when things are falling apart. Maybe it is actually like when nature is rallying and determined and it's healthy?

Maybe I should watch the "Hocus Pocus" movies this month. I have never seen them.

Thanks to the book I was reading, I went to Sizzler.

"The Manicurist's Daughter by Susan Lieu" | Goodreads

https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/127305940-the-manicurist-s-daughter

I enjoyed the salad bar. I ate less than half my entree. I brought home the rest of the entree and some of the better stuff from the salad bar, which was like, kale and tomato salad and quinoa and chickpeas and stuff, to share. Sharing's fun!

Thought of this thing I saw about prison makeup.

"Prison makeup"

https://www.reddit.com/r/LoveTrash/s/Vmig4TFHUN

I don't love this guy's attitude. I wonder what she's in jail for... I have no idea. But lately I've heard a lot of women are in jail because they fought back against domestic violence. Do you know, I have no idea but anyways. He's got some control freak issues going on, in my opinion.

Have a heart!

You didn't come here to ignore what's happening to people in concentration camps.

I don't want to do this, but I do want to do that.

I do think it's interesting to consider the idea of building new things in a way that also takes into consideration many different kinds of people, because right now there's a lot of imbalance when it comes to the people who have more money and people who don't have as much money and it's kind of not even just about the money. 

I think it's about values. Some people just value money more than others.

People who value money more than others don't seem very disturbed that lots of concentration camps are popping up everywhere and that kidnappings are happening and that children are being separated from their parents. 

It's also more about the acknowledgment of other people's existence and situations. It's less about the money and land ownership and more about acknowledging other people's existence and their situations. Come on, you guys. 

I mean maybe I also sometimes think there are karmic debts or experiences that the soul has chosen to undergo and maybe those things surpass the need to manifest fun parties and stuff.

Short version: who picks their food and does these guys's laundry?

Its just ... I sometimes feel like when people are getting ready to speak out about injustices that have been going on for a long time, it can seem disruptive but it's also a great opportunity for healing, and to see that there are talented people who could be participating in that process too feeling that they would rather not, or have no need to participate...I just feel like it's a bit of a cop-out? And also, they're missing out on something very rewarding, actually. But maybe in the future, they will change their minds.

I like this one.🦋

"Monarch butterfly saved after landing in refried beans"

https://www.popsci.com/environment/monarch-butterfly-rescue-refried-beans/

A liminal space? A place of imagination and play...

I feel like when I was a kid and we moved to the island. I walked down the road, downhill, and everything was so pretty. It was spring. In a way, it felt like I was going back to another time. There were farms nearby with draft horses. At some point I got an impression of two men having some kind of heated discussion or argument next to some horses. Later, when I grew up, I remembered it, and began to believe those two were Thoreau and Emerson.

Conditions could be better is what I'm saying.

Future family reunions could benefit from more attention to details.

Whoa there!

Do you really think it's going to look good to be so indifferent about the concentration camps that your money is paying for?

I was not aware that this documentary existed, but now that I am, maybe I will watch it?

I, too, have always wanted to visit a Sizzler. They didn't have Sizzler on the island. But they do still have them in California... And it might not be around forever. Look at what happened to Bed Bath and Beyond and Toys R Us and Joann's...

Mephisto!

This is the film some people are making me think about lately.

"Mephisto (1981 film)" - Wikipedia

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mephisto_(1981_film)

Mephisto is a 1981 German-language political drama film co-written and directed by István Szabó, and based on the novel of the same name by Klaus Mann. It stars Klaus Maria Brandauer as a German stage actor (modelled on Gustaf Gründgens) who finds unexpected success and mixed blessings in the popularity of his performance in a Faustian play as the Nazis take power in pre-Second World War Germany. As his associates and friends flee or are forced underground by the Nazi regime, the popularity of his character ends up superseding his own existence, until he finds that his best performance is keeping up appearances for his Nazi patrons.


I'm trying not to get sucked into movies while there's Vitamin D daylight happening.

Maybe after I finish "East of Eden" I could flip back and forth between "Escape from Sobibor" and "The English Patient."

I'm glad that me and the tree are on good terms!

 


I wouldn't be surprised if Westerbork was better than some of the 400 plus detention centers that are making a tiny fraction of people richer...

 



"Jewish Love Song recorded in Concentration Camp (1944) 'Westerbork Serenade'"

If the concentration camps we are paying for are more like Westerbork than Auschwitz, I think that's no great thing to brag about.

That's part of the old ways that are getting discarded.

It won't do to get more successful by acting like some people are the outcast and the untouchables.

Kind of like a lighthouse, or having a light on to guide others...

I think that the men and women who truly are comfortable with talking about the things that a lot of women are talking about in regards to making the world a safer place for themselves and for everybody seem the most trustworthy and mature ones right now, and it doesn't mean they have to be perfect about talking about it, but being willing to talk about it at all is a very good thing.

I like the UK title of this book!

Are the middle class people who don't want to be bothered enough to care about the kidnappings and the concentration camps and the children being traumatized by their miserable American mediocrity ever going to grow up?

From somewhere in the universe, this comes to me now.

Imagery:

A white arch in someplace like Greece, the sea, a shining moon, singing and songs sung by healing sisters...

I think I want to heal people like your mother. I want people like your mother to be seen. I want the gifts of your mother to be known. Your mother is bigger than one lifetime, and your mother is a spirit who is connected with the other mothers.

Sometimes the cosmic mother energy is like when people get connected to the Moon as a source of light, and some kind of powerful energy of love comes through the universe down to the planet. And it comes to the planet through music and art, too.

My cat is being such a creature of nature.

She wants to hang out inside more now because of it being colder and wetter outside. 

And I just looked at her and it's like she felt my eyes on her and with her eyes still closed, without looking up, she started purring.

That's today's nature notes on a black domestic housecat.

I guess others could feel that way too if they wanted to.

I feel very, very honored to be able to develop my feminism in this lifetime so that it will far surpass any sort of feminism that I practiced in any previous lifetimes.

How can people deal with their lives when love also seemingly taps into so much grief and heartache, but it seems to be for the reasons of finding out more about love, and understanding there are some more lessons to be learned there?

I wonder how people can get better at different kinds of love? It seems like a worthwhile endeavor.

I guess the new guy was able to do a little bit of work today, so it's not like he won't get paid for anything, but he certainly won't get paid for a full day of work like he could have if the hedge fund guys's IT department actually had their s*** together. But I suppose if he's getting paid less, and then the salary employee who never gets a day off is filling in for what he can't do, that's just a little more extra money the goddamn rich people can squeeze out of the masses.

So, after weeks and weeks, today was supposed to be a whole day off. But then, guess what happened??!

Another temp guy who is supposed to be pretty good (and coincidentally is also from Chicago) was hired, and today he was supposed to be able to work because the technological stuff was finally supposed to be figured out right???

Wrong!

Apparently, temp guy from Chicago can access the system, but he cannot work within it yet!

Do you suppose there's a reason why Jesus was ever really grouchy with rich people?

Maybe he was just sick of their b*******.

There are so many other ways to be!

How can your shallow friends and acquaintances' children and / or grandchildren be less obviously prejudiced towards certain kinds of human beings than your shallow friends still are, in spite of all kinds of things that are happening, which could be helping them to change their minds and their attitudes right now?

Trump was the popular candidate for the rich.

It's nice not to be in a concentration camp in this life. Perhaps one could even celebrate one's good fortune in being more free. But a lot of rich people seem to feel entitled to keep on behaving in ways that are quite irresponsible and lacking in empathy for others, these days. But of course, you can also see middle class people and poorer people who are also irresponsible and lacking in empathy. You have Ice Agents who are from all walks of life. (Except I don't think too many of those agents are rich. That's more for the ones who are involved with the detention centers, like a certain attendee of Taylor Swift's wedding.) The survival mode of too many of these people seems geared towards being as selfish as possible. 

Raining a lot outside. 🌧️💧🌫️

Cracked the door open so the cat can see what the conditions are like out there for herself.

Just trying to impart a lesson, as I am continuing to learn from it.

Sensitivities or sensibilities have been messed with. Physically, emotionally, etc.

I think it feels difficult to work with some of the patriarchal people who got convinced to go along with certain dynamics in order to fit in better with others, because it almost seems like you're making excuses for the "Epstein class," and therefore, accidentally making yourself an accessory to rape culture. 

You're being trained to dehumanize and disregard the experiences of a whole lot of people just to get along better with a small number of "privileged" people. In the future, those people are not going to look that enlightened. They certainly do seem quite selfish at times. They appear to find it easy to disregard others, and they seem to feel the most great when they lack empathy for others. 

A bunch of rich men feeling better about themselves at the cost of the health and well-being of the rest of society is not a great outcome, and the idea of being a part of something like that does not inspire me. 


Is this a mission?

To boldly bring the meditation techniques into the places where parents have been separated from children, and that is still happening now for no really good reasons (except to show us that we're all connected, and that we have free will) just because some people chose to support a corrupt, fascist sexual predator when they were being selfish, materialistic, ignorant and greedy?

Maybe you don't need to watch all the content about ICE brutalities or how terrible some corrupt administrations have been about dehumanizing girls and women.

But sometimes it feels like it really takes a lot of patience to deal with certain kinds of people who have been duped and catered to just for going along with a Patriarchal Society that is so out of control and robbing far too many people who deserve to enjoy basic respect, dignity, human rights, not to mention health, beauty, and joy.

Perhaps 30% interested in asking questions about you.

Don't be surprised if I'm at least 70% into talking about myself.

How does she manage to do this?

So many characters!

Why should these be at odds?

Make the world nicer for myself and make the world nicer for other people, too?

Anyways, it seems to me that I was clearly not supposed to walk the same sort of path that some other people were taking, for a while.

Woke up hot.

I have "Careless Whisper" in my head, and I bet George Michael would have said something about...
