Deep breathe.

Seeing the latest rollback by this Supreme Court really has me fired up as it aims directly at an ideal I hold most dear, respect.

There are a malicious group of people

Who are trying to kick out the ladder behind them

They have climbed to new heights and they don’t want any one but their own family to be there. They look at the lower class as necessary scum. They can’t kill them as they need to keep them alive, just barely, to get the work the rich don’t want to do. While they take a private jet to Cancun.

And have been programmed to say that climate change is a hoax while they roll back more and more environmental regulation so a select few can pillage all of what the earth has to offer.

Selfish greed is what is in between the most progressive decision and what we are doing now

 

What the fuck good is creating if we can’t breathe?

What is the point in writing if we can’t drink water?

How do you expand the mind when your stomach is shrinking?

 

I try to limit my carbon footprint, conscious of what I products I use, recycle – if that is even a thing ultimately, have seen garbage pits where everything ends up in the same place anyway. I don’t litter, pick up trash when I see it, however being in New York that would be a full time job as there is trash everywhere. It’s just incredible how people just throw trash on the ground and walk away from it without a care in the world.

We shit all over this planet and then will try to play victim when she smacks us in the fucking face. Like you bitch, I tried fucking warning you and now you have fucked around for so long you are about to feel my wrath for generations to come. You had it so good, gave you everything you needed to survive. You weren’t born into this world, you were born from it, and what did you do to it? What did you do to this womb that birthed you and gave you life? You desecrated it and then convinced yourself that it wasn’t having an impact? It’s a hoax?

Have seen that meme

Earth without art is just eh

No, it just means that humans are dead

What would the planet be then?

A lot more harmonious that’s for sure

Wouldn’t see animals killing other animals for sport

Wouldn’t see animals killing other animals after they had their fill becoming so obese they can’t even get out of bed in the morning

Truly

How did we get this bad as a species?

We do good, but it’s not outweighing the bad

I am not going to focus solely on the good while all this shit is happening

Solution based mindset.

Sorry it does feel good to just rant and get it out there.

Seeing the Supreme Court yet again actively try to make this country harder for minorities to live here. Roll back law after law. Meanwhile they are facing no accountability for being corrupt? Taking undisclosed gifts from wicked billionaires? They didn’t even write on their taxes? How the fuck is this possible? How are they still able to sit on the highest court in the land?

We just stick our heads in the sand.

I say this and it falls on deaf ears, like nope, don’t want to think about that, would rather look at Kim K’s ass, did she get implants again, let’s talk about that.

Without their mind wandering in their eyes, thinking about something else, they are wanting to scroll by whatever it is you are saying

Deep breathes

One step at a time

I take the word respect to hold a lot of weight

And I think a lot of our problems on the micro and macro level are about respect

I respect others to live the way they want to live as long as it doesn’t harm others

Love who you want to love

Be who you want to be

Judgement free

Respect for the environment that gave you life

You, nor I, would be here without these perfect conditions making that possible.

In this digital age, we forget that

It becomes clouded over

Distraction after distraction

 

I try not to let things that are that far outside of me, so outside of reach, bother me

I talk a lot about protecting that energy

Choose where to spend that energy coursing through your veins, the power flashing in the synapses in your brain

 

 

Pick and choose what to do

I have chosen a few stances that I am willing to put my life on the line for

And it’s all based in respect

Respect for your fellow man, respect for far across lands, respect to learn more and understand

And that comes from realizing that we don’t have it all figured out

Respect in knowing a lot of what we think about day to day is manmade

We created it ourselves, it wouldn’t exist without us

Man enforcing words written on a piece of paper upon other man and getting paid to do so with even more words written on even more paper.

Heart beats about 100,000 times per day

35 million times per year

About 2.5 Billion Times in a Lifetime

Had to look that one up, but how many of those limited beats of your heart were spent angry, upset, sad, depressed.

How many of those heart beats are spent on illusions that are purposefully making you upset?

If someone can make you upset, then they control you. They have power over you. 

Now look at what drives engagement on the timeline.

I look at videos I post. I know if I post about anything Metaverse related, or when I post Gay Pride videos, I am opening myself up to hate filled comments.

Only, they are used to having certain arguments with people. They have no idea whose post they just commented on. I have been studying social media effects for years. I don’t argue in the typical fashion as I want to get at the root, not focus on the leaves. I want to go at the root at why someone is choosing to spend their finite time on this planet to leave a hateful comment to express that they don’t like something they are seeing on their timeline.

And then I look at the word choice they are using. Why are they writing these particular words.

And again. Language is learned from the environment. Word choice is everything and reveals a lot about a person.

And it’s funny to me, in this information age, there is this paradox where people are using less variety. And that’s from Propaganda. They say the same message over and over and over again, hammering it into their frontal cortex, seeping into their dreams and unconscious, just hammering this one message into their brain from the time they are born, hammering and installing it into their vocabulary. 

They latch onto these catch phrases and one unique word and just say it over and over and over again. Then they come up with their own words to let others know they are all apart of the same group when they meet someone new. It becomes a signal, hey I am in this group, you are either with that or you’re an outsider and will be treated as such. In turn, I – this person, have words that I am triggered by and will immediately know which side you are on as it’s been drilled into my head to treat you like the enemy, the greatest threat to my existence is he who I see most. 

Now, we have gotten to this point of propaganda in America, the temperature is so hot, the tension so tense, it has to release at some point. I think the laws of physics applies here. When you have this energy built up it has to find somewhere to transform to. Feels like two tectonic plates just slammed up against each other, everyone has picked the plate they want to stand on, anyone who tries to be independent falls into the crack.

You’re unwanted by both sides. You’re an outcast, you don’t understand the game being played, you have to choose a side. 

Yes, silence does help the oppressor. But I think Democracy dies in a 2-party system.

Where will this tension go? Another mass shooting? We now have more mass shootings in America than days. The number one cause of death for children now is gun violence. What are we going to do about it?

Most of those gun deaths are suicides. Why? Why? How many are caught up in manmade perceptions? Too easy to call them illusions, you use that word and it falls on deaf ears. 

Selfish greed. It’s all about the words on paper, about controlling others behavior. It is easier to dupe someone then to tell them they have been duped. Duped their entire life. How do you crack that open? How do you aim to see that? They have to be willing and that’s part of the programming, to equip them with defense mechanisms so outsiders can’t crack them open.

Crack them open and make them feel vulnerable. Oh the ego would rather die than to see that. But they fail to see that embracing vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness.

To obtain a growth mindset over a fixed mindset. To be water. Change with your environment. To adapt and evolve. Not white knuckle clench onto the past, words written 200 years ago. Do you think they could have even imagined what we have now? Do you think they could have envisioned the internet? The ability to fly around the world as easily as we do now? They were riding horses and wearing horse hair wigs with wooden teeth! 

Times have changed and our minds have to change with it. We have to grow and adapt to this ever changing environment.

In the face of unprecedented challenges and opportunities, a growth mindset becomes crucial for personal and societal progress. A growth mindset fosters resilience, curiosity, and the willingness to embrace change. It allows individuals to view setbacks as opportunities for learning, encourages innovation, and enables adaptation to an ever-changing world. 

We have to grow and adapt as it is so vital.

Where I think I can help with that is raising emotional intelligence.

Creatively unleashing this frustration.

That tension I am talking about and how it needs to be released. Does not mean that it has to be negatively.

There is this tension and it is breaking with angry outbursts towards others, whether it be in person or on the timeline, and there are the more serious outbursts of mass shootings. And the hate filled mass shootings. To see that in 2023 is just shocking and proves that we still have these kids programmed on old software. This language, these hate filled ideas are coming from their environement. Someone isn’t born knowing a language, they have to learn it from their environment. Why do we choose the words that we do? Why do we use certain words?

Will give one example as it’s one that again is based in disrespect.

When someone calls another human being, illegal.

And the knee jerk reaction everytime I say that to someone who uses it, “is well they are doing illegal things, they are breaking the law!”

A human being cannot be illegal. They can do an illegal act, but they themselves can not be illegal.

And the quirk about using this word, is that it only get applied to one particular culture, one particular ethnic group.

They don’t use it to say criminal. That person isn’t a criminal. Why aren’t they illegal? Why isn’t that shoplifter than an illegal by your standard? Why again do you only apply this to one group of people?

It’s because that is how they have been programmed! That is how their software has been written!

Everything someone says and if they think in words or based in words – it can be visual thinking of someone saying something even – if words are in someone involved in these thoughts than it came from their environment.

I pay very close attention to word choice, especially when I am seeing something written online about a certain topic.

Even my analysis and what I write has come from my environment. And as a writer, I try to open my mind up to many different things, and expose my mind to as much as I can to absorb it all in and analyze it.

I embrace that I may be wrong and have to change my perspective on something, I don’t cling onto a belief and say no, this is what I believe so this is the way it is! I have always thought this way and I will always think this way.

Oh, that’s just the way I am. Oh, I’m a Pisces and we are just like that.

What does that mean? What does that really mean? What evidence based facts can you point to that prove being a Pisces exists?

What I can think of, is how the planets and stars align at particular times of the year and that it does all affect us as we are all connected, why do stars thousands of lightyears away have the same molecules as in our veins? In the air we breathe?

We are not living in the universe, the universe is living through us.

Again, we are not born into this universe, we are born from it.

The universe is discovering itself through us. We are explorers. We are nomadic both physically and mentally.

Why does this planet have Peyote? Ayuasca? Mushrooms? DMT is in 99.99% of all life on this planet. It’s the one of a few molecules that really binds us together just as carbon, hydrogren, nitrogen and oxygen. 

Take away the word I. that egotistical word. I, the one that otherizes everything outside it. See yourself in others, see yourself in this planet, where the fuck would you be without it. 

No one grew up on their own. no one is self made. How the fuck did you even get here? On your own. shut the fuck up. No one did it on their own.

Put a baby on the fucking ground on it’s own and see how long it lives. Get the fuck out of here. How did the baby even come to exist? On your own. shut the fuck up. Another god damn illusion you are dissociating from reality with. On your own. I did this, you did shit, worth nothing without a habitable planet you son of a bitch and that bitch is mother nature and she will make you respect her. You neglected her, you took her for granted, you abused her, used her, for your I. for you egotistical independence. What the fuck is independent on this planet? Absolutely nothing. Humble yourself you mother nature fucker.

I am independent. How long will you live without oxygen? How long will you live without eating? How long will you live without communicating with others?

Fuck your independence.

Independence day is coming up those, better celebrate.

We took a necessary step 200 years ago, it’s time to continue down that journey. To grow. To adapt. Growth mindset over a Fixed Mindset, fixated on ancient writings. Does a computer still run on Window 95 Software? NO. it runs on 2023 Software, make sure to update.

Selfish greed, utter disrespect for everything on this planet as long as you get those lovely little words on those luscious green papers. Human lives, the environment, who needs it, I am independent. I stand alone.

 Good luck with that.

And I will leave you with that.

And if this my last episode ever, and one of these times that will be true, so I want to say it now, because if not now, when? But I just want to say before I go, one last thing and if it’s the last thing I ever say I want it to be this -
