This is just a personal experience. I am too done with this type of stuff to make another thread about it. I just received an email from a friend and neighbor sharing with me the information that another local person has been sent to the ICU because of the sudden development of blood clots.

This makes the third local person to be sent to the ICU within the last three months because of the sudden development of life threatening blood clots. For the record, they were all in good health, with no history of cardiac or blood clots before, and they all had the vaccine.

Take from that what you will. Or take nothing at all.

I have been watching the Waukesha Parade attack trial. Beyond the fact that I feel this is a charade of a trial and a waste of time and money, I am stupefied, because I frequently have times when I need to talk to young people, and this feels exactly like the same.

While I believe the judge is ridiculously patient, I also believe that this is not a good response to this guy's behavior. I will admit I do not have that kind of patience. I don't ask three and four times. Two is my limit. Working within the limits of the law, professionalism, and decorum, can be tough when dealing with this new generation. I have found the no nonsense approach works better for me. If I give and inch and they take a mile, that is the last inch they will receive. When their behaviors morphs into the kind of behavior this guy continues to display, I ask them to leave or I will leave. I will give them the opportunity to return,"when" they are ready, and when they are in a better and respectful state of mind.

I used to think that their behavior was unusual. I now believe it is not unusual at all. Now I am thinking they have trouble processing anything that has to do with anyone other than themselves. They can only relate to how they "feel" about what is said in a conversation. This guy has no filter and he does not think anything matters, except for how it affects him.

This is becoming a standard behavior with a lot of our young folk.

"Handed down through the generations..." isn't that what we've come to know?



Yup, that's the story, anecdotally in folklore. My Dear Old Dad was supposedly "born under the veil", which researching it seems to mean the same thing as being "born with a caul", which in mundane terms just means having a part of the amniotic sac wrapped around the baby's head during birth. Mountain folk used to associate that sort of thing with "second sight", and sure enough, pap knew things he ought not to be able to know some times.



My grandmother, his ma, had a similar affliction - she knew when folks were dead before anyone else did. I asked her about it once and she said she'd see a "ball of fire" descend on their house, and when she saw that, someone in the house invariably died.



I used to just "know" things as well, without any reason for knowing them. My sisters used to think I was a witch because of that. It wasn't always foolproof, and sometimes seemed to involve a bit of "interpretation" where, if you got the interpretation wrong, then so was the resulting information wrong. So it wasn't 100% for me.



But Dear Old Dad was the only one of the 3 that I know to have been "born under a veil". Never heard that about granny, and neither do I know that of myself - although it's probably not something remarked on in modern hospital medical settings. I'd say they just remove the membrane and forget about it when such happens in the modern day. I was there at my son's birth, but for the life of me cannot recall if that was the case at his birth.



I was watching a video on the Nat Turner Rebellion last night, and there was a quote in it by W.E.B. DuBois that mentioned "born under the veil" in connection with "Second Sight", and that is what set me off down this road.



Here is an abstract from another paper, a doctoral dissertation, from the University of Edinburgh about a study done in Scotland about the hereditability of "Second Sight" among clansmen -



https://era.ed.ac.uk/handle/1842/9674





Quote:Garry Nolan.




Quote:'...In 2012, Nolan began analysis on the Atacama skeleton, a suspected alien corpse from Chile, which he later revealed



to be a mummified human stillbirth with genetic bone defects and gene mutation causing deformity.




He was later approached by officials and an aerospace corporation to "help them understand the medical harm that had come



to some individuals, related to supposed interactions with an anomalous craft." He was chosen primarily for the types of blood



analysis his lab can perform.






Initially via CyTOF blood analysis, he helped investigate the brains of around 100 patients, mostly "defense or governmental



personnel or people working in the aerospace industry", of which a subset claimed to have seen unexplained aerial phenomena



(UAP).




The majority exhibited symptoms that were "basically identical to what's now called Havana syndrome" and had their brains scanned



via MRI. Nolan stated that some of the brains were horribly damaged and that "what we thought was the damage across multiple



individuals" turned out to be a "over-connection of neurons between the head of the caudate and the putamen" which he claims was



disproportionate in this cohort compared to the general population. Others have independently verified the role of the caudate in



intelligence and planning. This brain characteristic was something subjects were born with for multiple individuals in this subset.






Nolan is the lead author of the first study published in a peer-reviewed journal about anomalous materials associated with UFOs.



The article reviews modern analytic procedures, including mass spectrometry, for characterization, analysis, and identification of



unknown materials and how such have been applied thus far to study materials that, according to witnesses, dropped from hovering



UFOs such as materials of the 1977 Council Bluffs incident.





Since the formation of the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force in 2020, multiple publications have reported on Nolan's involvement



with The Pentagon and the CIA investigating samples of materials supposedly ejected at purported sites of UFO sightings.



Nolan appeared on Fox News's Tucker Carlson Tonight show on 1 August 2022 where, in an hour long interview, he discussed his UAP



related research...'



Wikipedia:



It'd be interesting to get to meat of this. Edit: Are they still looking for something they failed to find through the coof-scare?



minusculethumbsup



It's interesting that Nolan is also connected with genetics, and was selected to do this study. Of further note is that some of the subjects are said to have been born with those brain connections.



I too have a nagging suspicion that "something" is being searched for in the coof-scare. I also have that same suspicion that "something" is being searched for in the explosion of commercial DNA testing that has occurred in the past few years. The fact that a gene therapy "vaccine" that seems to do nothing at all about the coof was developed and insistently injected into the unsuspecting masses makes a connection, in my estimation, between the two seemingly unrelated events.      



But what is it they are really looking for?

I agree with you and suggest it has something to do with the disillusionment generated from years of not obtaining the
false materialistic world of wealth and fame promised to them by what they see and hear daily. There's also the reality
that the most expensive trainers, the flashy vehicle and other trinkets fail to bring that which is deemed an emotion of
the weak, simple joy.

This need to promote one's self into a position of importance to those around them is no different from a child seeking
attention from a parent. This statement -of course, would be seen as criticism from the uncaring, but it is true and comes
from experience. The notion of a well-balanced family-unit has been so damaged that the steady weaning-off from this type
of selfishness doesn't occur in many households and the young adult is stuck with the tools that only served them when they
truly needed help.
In my humble opinion.

I think the time is rapidly approaching where such miscreants will just be lit up on the spot to spare the taxpayer's the expense of such dog and pony show "trials".

He should be removed from the courtroom for the duration of the trial, tele-tried, with someone else's finger on his microphone switch.

I feel the same way you do. The guy’s behavior is appalling. I can’t begin to imagine how hard it’s been for the victims and families to have to deal with this on top of everything else. Like they’re not traumatized enough. I wanna throat punch the son of a bitch. I have little to no patience for that kind of bullshit.

Terrified judge


Quote:Fiona Hill: ‘Elon Musk Is Transmitting a Message for Putin’

Hill: Ukraine has already had a great moral, political and military victory. Russia has not achieved the aims of its special military operation. But I think Putin is obviously hoping that now, with all of the nuclear saber-rattling, threats of nuclear Armageddon, deploying Elon Musk and others to convey his messages, that basically he can take the territory that he’s got and get recognition of that. And then he hopes that he will be able to put pressure back on Ukraine. He’d still like to see the Ukrainian political system crumble away. He’d like to get somebody as leader of Ukraine who is personally loyal to him. Putin hopes that he’ll still prevail, that he’ll find other ways of getting what he wanted when he went across the border in February.

On a lighter note: We’re having uncharacteristic beautiful weather here in da frozen tundra of Wisconsin. Last few days have been gloomy, windy, snow squalls, etc. Just sucks. Today, it’s 73F here sky as clear as a bell. What we politically incorrectly call Indian Summer. Feels like early summer. I’ve been sitting on my patio for a couple of hours, drinking wine and listening to reggae music. This will not last, so I’m gonna milk it for all it’s worth. This kind of weather makes me feel alive. 

And after the day I’ve had, I believe I deserve it. Went to visit my hubby. He’s had a hell of a week. First, had blood in his pee, wound up being UTI. Then his oxygen levels dropped below 90%. They did a chest X-ray. He has congestive heart failure, fluid around his heart and lungs. They have him on Cipro for the UTI and furosemide for the fluid. They had to up his oxygen to 3L. The meds are starting to work now, so he’s back down to 2L for oxygen. He was breathing well today. I’m relieved. With all the shit he has going on, I just pray to God to keep him alive and happy.

So I’m celebrating life, his and mine. I play with the hand I’m dealt. I try to find the happiness and good things in life. I know many have it worse. Perspective is something I struggle with, as I’m always struggling with bouts of depression. The meds help, but there’s still some struggle with it, as it seems to want to drag me under. Naw, fuck that, I’m a fighter. I’ll be damned if I’ll let depression get the best of me.

Had a weird dream last night that Mystic Wanderer was still alive. We (Kdog and I) had gone to visit her niece (a friend of ours) and ran into her at a big family picnic they were having in Great Smokey Mountains National Park. I said "I thought you were dead!" and she said that she had almost died... but not quite. Truly strange!

I got some pretty good news last night right as my work has slowed down and things were starting to look a little bleak.

I applied for and got approved for social security retirement benefits with my first payment coming on the 9th of November. WooHoo!  tinybiggrin

Being self-employed since 1995, it's always been a feast or famine situation and a constant balancing act but I did pretty well up until a few years ago when a company that had paid me $25K a year for fifteen years was sold leaving me with an income cut of substantial significance to put it mildly. I lost most everything but still had/have a few things to keep me going but as always, in an unpredictable and irregular fashion.

Now having something regular and routine I can count on every month and can budget for, it feels like I've won the lottery!

You know what? I always figured Social Security would be long gone, broke or dismantled before I lived long enough to claim it or even if I would live long enough but it's still there, I'm still here and I've paid into it my whole damn life so why not get while the gettin's still there?

Not so strange. It's the time of year, and the portal is slowly opening. It's still got a couple weeks to go to wide open, when it will start slowly closing again. Some of the presumed dead have been visiting me, too. It's amusing that Grace, who does not believe in ghosts, has been yelling for me for the past two days to find out where I am, because she hears "someone moving" in places where I am not, and she's at a loss to explain that given her world view.

But I can explain it.
