A Holiday Message

Image
  A holiday message, a gift of sorts… but be aware… or beware… it’s not the typical message and there’s some “bad words.” Happy holidays. Peace on Earth! It’s certainly something to consider. One of my favorite comedians was the late George Carlin. Something about his ability to describe the stark reality in a funny way… and in doing so, allow people to laugh, primarily at themselves, was one of his unique gifts. With that in mind, my tone in this endeavor is to be humorous in that way. One of George’s most famous lines… “It’s all bullshit. Bullshit is the glue that keeps it all together.” That is one that has stuck with me. I don’t like bullshit, I never did. I’d prefer to live in a world without bullshit… and although that is probably unlikely, at the very least, I’d like to identify the people who are in agreement with me and start contributing to removing what we can, together… for the benefit of everyone. And that in a nutshell is the gift I’d like to offer to you, the reader…...

Is it time to reflect honestly on Crypto? It's really starting to uncover an even larger s***show!

Image
Observing the carnage from the recent crypto-exchange implosions, there are serious lessons to be learned... but are people really ready to do the work to see the truth and be honest with themselves? Especially those who have been cheerleaders for the technology since the first or second spike up... Many have allowed themselves to be swept up in their own rhetoric and have their own financial security compromised with their involvement. There's an obvious conflict of interest for most people involved in crypto these days. Whether people have noticed it or not. Dreamstudio's AI bot: "The chaos of crypto, government and central banking"  Which leads me to the suggestion that hard questions need to be asked. Serious discussions need to be had and good answers need to be brought forth and arrived at. Firstly, one has to take note of the origins and have to at least consider the strong possibility of government involvement. With these latest scams, one also has to consider...

The election is over... nothing has changed for the better... now what?

Image
For those of you in the USSA and much of the world, far too many people have let other people's ideas run their lives. For months now there has been a reverberating message from much of the media, in particular, the alternative media, that the Communists/ Fascists (for lack of a better term) in charge were going to be thrown out of office. That the faltering economy, the sky high inflation, the price of gas, the funding of the War in Ukraine, and numerous other things that had gone wrong was going to be the axe for many of Washington's corrupt politicians.  However, the election is now behind us and very little has happened. The most ridiculous candidates ever elected might be one thing to note. But beyond that, the system is going to continue to churn out bad news for those who pay attention, and for the rest... they probably won't even notice why their life continues to get more difficult. What might we learn from this? One thing I believe I can safely predict. It will co...

Another Crypto update... It gets worse...

Image
 I'm not going to say a whole bunch here. Just posting this for the record. Two, reports from some of the insiders who are starting to dig into the data and discovering massive problems. Who is next? More hints of trouble... In my opinion, this isn't the 2008-10 crisis in crypto, this is the dot com bubble pop in crypto, only worse. Interesting that this is happening as the central banks are whispering their long-term plans for CBDC. Another created crisis? The connections to government insiders do seem to suggest some troubling possibilities. I haven't heard many people talking about this aberration in Tether, but the fact it continues to creep along isn't reassuring IMHO... Could this mean BTC to less than $5k? Less than $2.5k? With all the potential for more dirt to be found... and it's effect on people's confidence... it is certainly a possibility. Respirar Acapulco is a blog that is also an effort to meet and collaborate with like-minded people. Knowledgeab...

Uh Oh!! Did the bottom just fall out of Crypto?

Image
 I'm no expert on the industry. But over the years I've got to rub elbows with many of the crypto industry's finest. Needless to say, I've been an observer for the most part, taking note of the wise ones. Today was another new low for the Market Cap. Losing $160 billion in less than 24 hours. More than likely caused by Binance dropping out of rescuing another faltering crypto-exchange, FTX. Bitcoin is now teetering at the $15k range. Which for the technicians, is a very precarious position. There's little support in this area and could mean a tumble to less than $10k in short order. Unfortunately, this isn't the end of the bad news for crypto. There's a number of things that these lower numbers do to the balance sheets of the businesses and exchanges that are using crypto as assets. The potential for bankruptcies grows as the price goes down Over the years there's been a lot of promises and very few deliveries when it comes to the capabilities of the ind...

Western Culture is the Anti-Culture. Korea demonstrates the hazards of adopting Western Culture.

Image
 Let's see if I can explain this in simple terms... Western Culture, mainly the practice of materialism and religiously chasing fiat money incessantly is the means and method that distract people from understanding the ramifications of what they are participating in. The destruction of themselves and the future of humanity as free, thinking, compassionate and enlightened people. Culture in the form of rituals and traditions has been a way of gently programming the individual's subconscious within a community with long term beneficial behaviors. Those ideals have been systematically removed and replaced with "modern" psychologically design models of advertising and programming that have conditioned the minds of the masses into dumbed-down zombies that are controlled by emotions and addictions. This isn't my suggestion, although I agree with it. This is the experience related from people living in a former third world country that has been transformed into a modern ...

Why is bad behavior so destructive and yet so popular? What does excellence look like when interacting with people online?

Image
 On our way to becoming pod people, what does good and bad behavior look like as we live more and more of our lives "online?"  Or maybe online could be better described as the "Metaverse" or is it "the Matrix?"  Nevertheless, as people become more and more conditioned into an artificial environment that isn't designed for their benefit but to take advantage of their weaknesses. It may not be clear to most, but to those who wish to be free and responsible for themselves , they've got to set some standards of conduct for recognizing beneficial behavior and harmful behavior. Therefore, Ethics and understanding the value of them is going to be of increasing importance! Let's start with the basics first...  Why does society h ave rules of etiquette? According to polishedmanners.co.uk: Etiquette is about kindness, it is about being friendly, it is about being polite, it is about integrity, it is about good manners. Etiquette helps us know how to trea...

The Genius of Alfred Korzybski

Image
You are not going to find his name or his work in many schools or universities today. Few even know his name or his ideology. However, most are effected by his work. The social engineers of the last century have taken much of his work and incorporated it into their operations. But rather than freeing humanity, they've enslaved most of them with convenience. The good news is, his work is still available to be examined and learned from. Who knows how much longer that will be so, it's in those of us who recognize the urgency hands to take action. Not only to learn, but also to apply his concepts.  There is no way I can encapsulate his work adequately in the short format but I'm going to hit some of the important points and encourage those of you who are  curious to dig deeper! I'm always available for inquiry if you feel the urge to discuss his work or have questions about it. Briefly, one of his most famous statements "The Map is not the territory" is still freq...

Learn from a person that didn't just believe the narrative. She dug into it!

Image
 There's many amazing people out there in the world that never get the attention they deserve. And that is certainly a function of the system. I would have never learned that or known about it if I hadn't been introduced to their ideas by other people who took the time to investigate who was worthy of my time and attention. I've met a great deal of those people in Autonomy! Certainly John Taylor Gatto was one of the wise people worth a great deal of time and attention... but the person I'm referring to today is Mae Brussell. She was a housewife turned investigator that had politicians and power brokers in Washington DC and even other world capitals wringing their hands... but you won't see a Hollywood movie about her. Needless to say, through a small show at a small radio station she was able to demonstrate just how far one person's curiosity and determination can take them. Her work is amazing and informative. An example, the hushed discussion around a FBI proj...

There's Good News in Rampant Stupidity!

Image
 It is indeed one of the best times to be alive! We're living in one of the greatest eras of human stupidity ever and that's a wonderful thing! No, I'm not advocating for stupidity... I absolutely abhor it, but it's a great place to start something spectacular from. And that's what has me giddy. Distinguishing and setting ourselves apart through intelligent behavior is easier than ever. And when done correctly, it's not threatening or dangerous, it's welcoming and comforting. And even more so, addictive. Having stupidity as an alternative to an intelligent product or service is nothing short of a Godsend! At this point I will remind the reader of my past reference to the Communicative Function of Aberrant Behavior. People want to be loved, if they can't get love, they'll seek Approval. If they can't get Approval, they'll accept Attention... initially for Good Behavior but if not, Bad Behavior. And this goes far beyond conscious behavior, this...
