Flash-Bangs and False Peace – Holy Molars

by

You are on the Titanic.  The band is playing on.  The iceberg has been hit.  A red line has been crossed. In the small world of credible “seers” and “prognosticators” there is Big Trouble just ahead.  A break. And then the Biggest and Worst.

A great starting point is G.A. Stewart’s latest piece on The Age of Desolation website. Where he addresses (with cites and commentary) the view ahead willed to our generation from Nostradamus. Stu is the leading expert on Nostradamus and because of what he does for a living, military and aircraft related, he’s got a clearer vision than most of “How things can start to go wrong. Really, ugly, wrong.”

There are only a handful of others with such a wide scope. And I doubt that you’ve ever heard of what my consigliere refers to as “the Polish seer.”  Americans are – by and large – very Ameri-centric.

Still, this Polish fellow (on low profile media, in a strange tongue) is also in the “big explosion” camp. But that brings us to the first – and most difficult point – of this morning.

The Language of Future

Many humans have at least some onboard capacity to “see the Future.” I’ve had several encounters with it myself which have been chronicled on this site over the years.  Reporting on the Deep Water Horizon and posting 18-hours ahead of the actual event. In another case, seeing (while Elaine and I were traveling) a road closure and a 50+ mile detour, a mere four hours in advance.  So yes, there is something, but the mechanics are difficult.

Clif High’s work using his predictive linguistic approach, hints that “the bigger something is, the more we can see it in advance of its appearance.”  I got no problem with that.

But it makes present times incredibly dangerous because the predictions have such damn-long leadtimes.

John of Patmos, for example, authored the Bible’s Book of Revelations in 95 A.D.  And Stu contexts the Nostradamus predictions from the early-to-mid 1500s.

The conundrum for Modern Thinkers is that there’s a clear progression of technologies.  Religious states (ecstasies), then staring at likely starlight reflected from a pot of black oil, and then by the 1970s, the government was getting interested in Puthoff and Targ’s work on remote viewing.  By 2000, High’s work monitoring predictive language shift on the web was producing good results, only to be thrown for a small loss as forums became social media, And then? Giants of social began to manipulate discussion at the behest of government and for their own nefarious pleasures.

The Oil Painting Analogy

Picture in your mind’s eye John of Patmos laying in the pencil-like outlines for a 2,000-year “paint by numbers.”  He describes Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. These were War, Famine, Pestilence, and Death.  Based on present news flows, we can now be reasonably certain that John’s order may have been wrong.

Headlines argue, to our way of thinking, that Pestilence was the first Horse.  That’d be COVID.  Skeptics will no doubt quibble but ask yourself, “Does the definition of “pestilence”  fit COVID?”

“…a fatal epidemic disease, especially bubonic plague.
“neither prayers nor demonstrations halted the advance of the pestilence”

Even now, the degree to which the “shot” has been effective is still open to debate.  That was loosed or launched in later 2019.

The second Horseman, is likely War.  We started it, buying a coup against the legally elected government of Ukraine in 2014 and allowing the new government to turn off water, electricity, and generally just shit-on the Russian speakers in the east and southeast of Ukraine.

That war, now escalating, may be pictured as the Second Horseman who will bring along the third – Famine – in 2025-2026.

My consigliere and I will be spending the next two weeks modeling how this possible Famine shows up.  But, now that Joe Biden is publicly playing his Role as Commander of the Ukraine War with Russia, the specific mechanism is all too likely because of how Google AI dishes up data:

“Russia and Ukraine are major producers and exporters of grains, and together they provide about 30% of the world’s wheat and barley, 20% of the world’s corn, and more than half of the world’s sunflower oil.”

Mind you, production cuts beyond 30 percent could happen if there is a widespread radiation plume, or plumes, following?   Overnight we had Russia fires missiles at Ukraine after Kyiv’s first use of long-range American missiles inside Russia.

Oh, and in case you didn’t notice, UrbanSurvival and Peoplenomics have both be providing articles and ideas (since my 2016 paper on the Coming Cost Explosion of Protein Prices on Peoplenomics). We didn’t have specific knowledge but a strong (almost urgent) sense of “What’s going to become important.”

So far, we can see John of Patmos’ penciled the outlines clearly.  Stu’s doing a more-than-able assessment of the “color numbers for within the outlines” recommended by Nostradamus.  And closer-in detail (brush strokes and shading) comes from Clif’s work and the Polish seer with more gradients from people like Manfred Zimmel.

You may not be aware of Zimmel’s work, but his latest is very much focused on the “resurrection of the dead, 2025-2033.”  He begins…

“In this free Amanita newsletter I would like to focus on the topic of the resurrection of the dead, which, like the 3DD (three days of darkness), has no precedent in our life experience, but ultimately even more bizarre and incomprehensible.”

Between dental visits, I’ll be munching through Zimmel’s work because of a “gut sense” that the “resurrection” might be a cure (or roll-back) for the damaged people (waiting to die, hence “walking dead”) from some horrific (yet to be publicized) aspect of mRNA shots.  We just don’t know. Because it might also be a cure/new high-success-rate treatment for radiation diseases – and this illustrates how the “Future is still being painted.”

A lot is (poor pun alert!) riding on how that War Horseman’s work is fulfilled.

Serious times, indeed. And while my own dental visits are not fun, they do provide great huffs of nitrous which helps lend some perspective to what’s at the next serving station at the Smorgasbord of Life.

Present contemplation focus on  (after the global Internet outage for 3-days that Zimmel mentions) how China will take Taiwan.  My consigliere reports president Xi (down in Peru) laid out China’s “four red lines” – presumably to avert the war out in the 2025-2026 area that naturally follows Famine:

  •  The Taiwan question
  • Democracy and human rights
  • (non-interference with) China’s path and system
  • and China’s development right

Oh, and we’re mightily concerned the democrats will next be resorting to violent means to prevent Donald Trump from returning to the Oval. There is (in the world of future and seers) presently talk of attempted poisonings, blowing up buildings, and other direct opposition to his return.

Love it: Why US Futures Are Lower Thursday.

Think nVidia had something to do with it? Nvidia sees $90bn of value wiped after earnings, but maintains lead over Apple as world’s largest company.

And will the BCN get his $100,000 for made-up secret numbers?  Bitcoin marches towards US$100,000 on optimism over Trump crypto plans. We just look at the slate of candidates on the ballot this month and wonder “If this is all people can do for leadership, why should their madness on phony money surprise?”

Notwithstanding, a rally through Friday seems possible from here: futures are higher, though it’s now clear that more than “one is born every minute.”

Philly Phed Report is just out:

“The diffusion index for current general activity fell from 10.3 to -5.5, its second negative reading since January (see Chart). Nearly 18 percent of the firms reported increases in general activity this month (down from 24 percent last month), while 23 percent reported decreases (up from 14 percent); 58 percent reported no change (little changed from last month). The indexes for new orders and shipments also declined but remained positive: The new orders index decreased 5 points to 8.9, and the shipments index declined 3 points to 4.5.”

At the Ranch: Holey Molars

With a tooth filling, two temporary crowns, and a third crown glued back in place Wednesday,  today’s dental chair time is for a “consult” with my endo guy (not to be confused with a proctologist, though both present at the same pain location, ahem…)

Interesting fact: The gold crown facing a root canal next week has been in place for 16-years.  Assuming 20-bites per minute, 10-minutes of eating per meal, three a day, that means upwards of 3.5 million chomps.

And since that crown was $1,200 in 2008, which corrects for inflation to around $1,752 in 2024 dollars.  Which translates to 3.428571428571429e-4 (or about 0.00034 of a dollar, or 0.034 of a penny per bite. Might actually be more expensive (like 1/20th of a penny per bite) because of skipped meals and keto…but you get the idea.

Best interview on dental care I came across while getting ready for the “chairs” this week was this one with Rina (the Five Minute Body) and a dentist who says scraping your tongue can lower blood pressure...check it out here.

Which sounded kind of “out there” so I went looking and sure enough, got to get back into regular tongue scraping based on Frequency of Tongue Cleaning Impacts the Human Tongue Microbiome Composition and Enterosalivary Circulation of Nitrate – PMC.

Who knew?  And brushing without conventional toothpaste?  Yessir – always learning.  Want to make sure and have the best teeth in the cemetery…

  1. I used to think I was weird calculating ROI for dental work and recently upgrades to my opthamalogical sauce bags.

  2. George,
    Here is one for you, LOL how about buying Rubles since they are pennies to the US dollar and with all going on might be the better choice down the road and if they did not change the currency like other countries have done with huge value swings, one might need them, hint!
    Of course no advice insinuated as well.

    • ai to the rescue
      Yes, teeth usually burn during cremation, but not entirely:
      Structure: Teeth are made up of four different tissues that respond to heat differently:
      Pulp: The soft, fragile tissue at the center of the tooth
      Cementum: The hard connective tissue that covers the root of the tooth
      Dentin: Beneath the enamel and the cementum
      Enamel: The very hard, calcified tissue that covers the crown of the tooth
      Resilience: Teeth are resilient because of their calcium phosphate content.
      Ash processing: Any remaining tooth fragments are ground into a fine powder during the ash processing.
      Other things that happen to teeth and other dental work during cremation include:
      Silver fillings: The silver in silver amalgams mixes with the ash because the mercury boils off early in the cremation process.
      Gold teeth: The standard protocol is to cremate the body without removing gold teeth.
      Dental implants: Dental implants are usually safe to leave intact.
      Silicone implants: Silicone implants can remain intact during flame cremation, but the melted material may adhere to the remains.

    • Exactly how do US citizens get mass quantities of rubles? Is it legal to own a lot of them? Where are the markets and what’s the overhead in buying and selling them?

      I honestly have no answers to these questions. I had similar thoughts regarding the Chinese yuan 25 years ago.

      • You can buy them.. some international sites to buy a product US currency is exchanged for the country of the products origin..
        I have a hundred dollar Confederate bill from the civil war..it was my grandpa’s..

  3. “Want to make sure and have the best teeth in the cemetery…”

    I plan to be cremated and wonder if the teeth remain behind to ensure I “retain” a permanent smile in the urn?

  7. G.A. STEWART: With the exception of George Ure over at UrbanSurvival.com, every Alternative Media outlet has intentionally ignored what I have written here. These people are poseurs and losers who have turned out to be self-destructive narcissists; and they want to drag their readers down into the pit with them pretending they saw it all coming.

    Frankly, I do not care, because I will get taken out in the first round of nuclear missiles aimed at the United States. I have been that person who is REALLY standing on the wall telling people when. These other people are phonies, who I no longer have any respect for, because the hour approaches and their silence is deafening.

    • Lets not jump gun here JC, why youse wanna be flash fried so soon ?
      Better to sit back and enjoy all BULLSCHEISSE histrionics and emotional outbursts of puppets and fools.
      This “show” turns out to be quite the humdinger, unreal plot twists, surprise false endings, unseen actors..and, and we are only in the 5th chapter in the book of catostrophic disclosure..last chapters have been written, but are pending edits and corrections.
      In meantime relax, sit back and watch conventional hypersonic daggerZ wipe out Elmdorf and Richardson..probably creating some new shallow water lakes in Alaska.

        Dam…and I made beet pickles from my beets.. I should of saved a couple for beet cabbage soup.. lol
        lol..
        I have to agitate and clarify the beet wine..get it ready for xmas..

        • Dam… did the agitation .. the beet wine is delicious.. I am amazed how good it is a nice red wine..the cacao wine is ok.. different but ok.. I sure don’t see the reason that justify why they charge so much for it.. its ok a week from today I will transport it to the next carboy..to finish clarifying it to be bottled.. ready by xmas..
          I will take the beet wine out to the grand daughters for thanksgiving..I will make the beet wine again..

        • The earliest archaeological evidence of beetroot use dates back to the Neolithic period in the Netherlands and ancient Egypt around the third millennium BCE. Beets were also mentioned in Assyrian texts and were known in the Hanging Gardens of Babylon around 800 BCE… this old wine recipe was never expected to taste as good as it is..its what I call a pleasant discovery..
          and cheap to make..you get the beets today and the Wine for dessert..or an after dinner treat..

    • What shocks me.. more than you know isn’t the bought and scripted media outlets..they only read what they are told to read.
      look at what happened to Dan Rather..
      https://ew.com/article/2015/12/29/dan-rather-cbs-news-firing/
      what shocks me…is our cPongress… with all of what’s happening .. they don’t even bother to come to the beltway to address anything that’s going on.. justification talks about the corrupt family business..even with their own threat analysts telling them now is the time to be concerned they don’t even give a shizt about members of their own families..
      none of them heading for safety none of them trying to intervene in the stupid actions in an attempt to stop us from going over the cliff.. That has me wondering.. are they that sheltered?
      or are they just plain stupid?
      why the stark inactivity when serious issues are unfolding that actually needs leadership to stop it from going over the cliff of world destruction..

      • A few years ago, Paul Craig Roberts asked a Beltway insider if our legislators intentionally, for one reason or another, misdirect the country or if they’re just plain stupid. The insider said they’re stupid.

      • LOOB; okay, I’ll take a ‘bite’ out of your comment.

        A) Because even our congress, senate, President and Supremes DO NOT MATTER to the elites that run the world;

        B) Ain’t nothing going to happen YET.

        • I get that… its pretty obvious that the elite don’t give two cents about any of their bought and paid for minions..
          What shocks me..is we read of the elite that are members of satanic cults the rituals and the price of fame and fortune.. hazing rituals to go sell their souls. Those human trafficked are usually recruited with money. young women get dangled what would be a months wages per hour to entice them into their group once caught then they are dominated into doing their bidding . then we read about the scurrying and panicked actions members of the organizations and those with political power do to clean it up.
          Why aren’t our political leaders panicking all of us see what’s coming the vast majority of the citizens see what’s coming they are panicking. oh there are a few that built a wall or put in a bunker.. ( like that really would help) its all a cover up.. but no panicked movements for their own safety. that’s what shocks me.. no one saying oh shit what now..what do I do..its all listed in Adolph Hitler’s second secret book.. heck it reads like a political parties business plan..
          we read how some celebs caught with their issues are leaving that kind of panic.. no talk about seizing any of their vast resources.. when they went after Putin as an example they took his money and any property..
          when we took out Gaddafi they took his gold and the wealth of the country killed him and his family. So no one is after the guilty members wealth or power.. no one panicking in those sectors of society..or making any moves to be safe ..
          if the analysts are right.. and there is what 4 million survivors..you could be the land owner for the state your living in.. or could you.. see the skill sets needed can you see The perv pulling a plow or actually doing something..

    • One of the things that I found sad is that when Russia launched an IRBM at Ukraine with MIRVed warheads yesterday, nobody in NATO warned us about it. They did a test of the early warning system in some countries, but only a test, and the US evacuated its Ukrainian Embassy but they didn’t say why. This missile would have shown up on radar almost immediately after launch.

      Just reminds me of the old axiom that when it gets really bad:

      You’re are on our own.

    I have gotten a couple of messages from an old acquaintance from sweden. we haven’t talked in years.. we played together on a game site. years ago member of Ukraine Was telling us about a small 4 year old boy. the Azov had taken a small boy belonging to Russian speaking parents..crucified him in the public square trying to get the parents to go rescue him.. then set him on fire..2/3rds of the population better Putin to intervene.. we haven’t talked since.. my guess is she’s looking for a place to go on an extended vacation.. its getting real for the countries we are using as meat shields..cannon fodder..

    yet the USA hasn’t made any arrangements at all for the citizens. a couple years ago when 5g came out the government calls a deep bunker big enough to house a small city complete with all provisions for around a million.. a professor lives next door to it..when I seen it I was impressed..
    it was decommissioned .. the big issue is how would you get to it..

      I was hoping they’d arrest Putin. That would’ve resulted in the anonymous and untraceable relocation of The Hague to someplace 400 miles out in the Atlantic, and would’ve caused a massive improvement in the political climate over the entirety of Ureup. Ah, well. Maybe they’ll arrest Cheney…

    feat: The Anarchy

    Folks,

    President Zelenskyy has lamented on the Day of Dignity and Freedom today that the Russians have now launched intercontinental ballistic type missiles at Ukraine.

    His martial law administration welcomed to his palace the head of British Armed Forces, Admiral Sir Antony (Tony) Radakin, KCB, ADC, and most recently First Sea Lord of the British Navy. Royal watchers may recall that Sir Antony was appointed Lord Constable of England for the coronation of Charles III. The Lord Constable position was created in 1139 by Empress Matilda, a grand-daughter of William the Conquerer. She apparently utilized such appointment to attempt her rule of England against her cousin Stephen under martial law between the death of her father, Henry I, and the ascension of her son, Henry II. The subsequent factional fighting during the 1140’s became known as The Anarchy.

    Thankfully one understands that DJ George will be successfully crowned in the dental chair following recent turbulence and melée. Surely good cheer and merriment of song shall follow.

    • Folks,

      Apparently Queen Victoria’s poet laureate Alfred Lord Tennyson wrote “Maud” in 1850 in partial homage to Empress Mathilda of the 12th century. Of course his 1854 “Charge of the Light Brigade” addressed more contemporary matters of his day concerning the Crimea.

      Yesterday the world observed the spectacle of President Zelensky’s 11 Western long range missiles missing their alleged target of the historic 19th century Marino Palace and Park Complex of the Baryatinsky Princes in Kursk. Back in 1854 while Lord Cardigan was charging into “The Valley of Death”, Prince Baryatinsky of a wealthiest family in Russia was settling into his role as Viceroy of the Caucasus. The family traces its roots to the Swedish Viking Rurik who conquered Kiev in 862 ad. The historic home lives on to see another day while Russia’s “Pravda” suggests the palace repurposed as a Cold War Soviet Presidential Sanitorium replete with nuclear bomb bunker had become recent abode to the North Korean three star General Kim Yong Bok.

      Certainly one would imagine such a gong show performance under a Trump Administration would result in some entity other than a missile being fired.

  18. In a sudden and complete turn-about from roughly 90 days ago, the New President of Mexico just announced that they are ready and have a plan to accept the returned “refugees” back into Mexico.
    Wonder what made her reverse her hard-line stance ?

    • Mayhaps Mr. Trump, indicating a desire to publish a very highly and accurately researched essay, documenting the incestuous relationship between the drug cartels and the Mexican government, bore an influence on Mme. Presidente’s decision…?

  21. “Want to make sure and have the best teeth in the cemetery…”
    That’s a damn sight better than NO teeth in the cemetery! I have always taken care of my teeth… sometimes at great expense. ‘Gumming’ my food is not my idea of optimal nutritional uptake!

    • I like that Choices, but as a long-time news exec, we have serial examples of stations – a good sized on in L.a. for example that tried a radio format called “good nerws.” Not only did they quickly run out of material, but the audience generally had no interest.
      They folded and blew into radio history as a failed format.

  23. “Many humans have at least some onboard capacity to ‘see the Future’.”

    In the Quantum World (in which we all live now)… infinite potentials exist simultaneously. That means that everything that COULD happen… DO happen/are happening right now. For a potential to exist there must be a pre-existing road or pathway already there NOW to GET to. We don’t see all these possibilities because we could not possibly process all this information as our minds are currently wired… and we are also personally predisposed to NOT want to see certain pathways as they do not conform for one’s tastes, prejudices, hopes, or personal experience.

    And as we have been told… Time itself is an illusion. All things already exist in the Eternal Now moment so there is no real such thing as one event following another by direct causality.

    This is like being stopped to watch a freight train go by. In our limited waking-state mindset… we see one train car then another then another in a sequence of ‘time’ events. Is that vision real? No, because the entire train already exists in totality which we would see if we hovered high above it.

    Thus it seems we live one day after another after another. With one event causing another event which causes another. This is a distorted picture of Reality as just like the freight train… all timelines already exist in totality and we just see and experience slivers of that at any instant.

    How does this relate to ‘seeing the future’? In two ways. First, if one opens his mind and field-of-experience perception to ‘see’ down the ‘current’ timeline in greater totality – he or she can see what is truly ahead. But secondly… one might also be looking ‘ahead’ at one of the other timelines of potential out there in the Quantum Mix. So is one seeing the ‘right’ timeline or some other? That is the quandary. You never know until our consciousness catches up with the timeline to see where we find ourselves and how good our perception of a future was for THIS timeline we find ourselves in.

    Obviously, history has shown that some persons are quite gifted at discerning the current timeline while others either see a different timeline in the Quantum Soup or they are just lousy ‘seers’.

    Each of us has a measure of ability to see the future. And like any skill… this can be developed and refined with practice, humility, openness, and an awareness of our shared inherent Divine Nature while even as humans.

    And one thing that Near Death Experiencers seem to agree upon when they return to the body is that… there is no such thing as Time – over there.

    So, in the immortal words of the Rolling Stones… it looks like Time Is On My (Our) Side.

    Because Time is not our master. And we will find out we have all the ‘Time’ in (and out of) the World…

    • “In the Quantum World (in which we all live now)… infinite potentials exist simultaneously.”
      .
      That is one hell of an assumption. .., wow !

      • From Wikipedia:

        “The many-worlds interpretation (MWI) is an interpretation of quantum mechanics that asserts that the universal wavefunction is objectively real, and that there is no wave function collapse. This implies that all possible outcomes of quantum measurements are physically realized in some “world”… Many-worlds is also called the relative state formulation or the Everett interpretation, after physicist Hugh Everett…

        MWI is considered a mainstream interpretation of quantum mechanics, along with the other decoherence interpretations, the Copenhagen interpretation, and hidden variable theories such as Bohmian mechanics. The many-worlds interpretation implies that there are many parallel, non-interacting worlds. It is one of a number of multiverse hypotheses in physics and philosophy. MWI views time as a many-branched tree, wherein every possible quantum outcome is realized.”

  24. I don’t read a lot of survival books. I am reading one written by EJ Snyder of Naked and Afraid fame called Emergency Home Preparedness.
    The first section where he gives his personal history and credentials runs a bit long, but the guy has been places and done things. I bought a paper copy, and the quality of the slick paper is unusually good. I find myself pausing to internally debate things he writes, and that is a good thing. Andy would benefit from reading it.
    EJ has a conventional view of things like get-home bags and bug-out bags for the car trunk. I started calling my bag a walk-home bag, which EJ acknowledges is the function of that pack, regardless of what you call it.
    I don’t refer to personal carry items as bug-out supplies. Anything smaller than a covered trailer or a U-Haul isn’t going to be of much use in a forced relocation. I figure if you hit the road you should have sufficient supplies to either camp in a campground, go on foot or bicycle if your vehicle is blocked or immobilized, or set up a small apartment. And you are usually better off hunkering down at home anyway.
    With me telecommuting, that makes staying home my Plan A, but it is best to have other contingency plans in Ure back pocket. I think I’ll read another chapter before packing it in for the evening.

    • Thank you for the book recomendation. The thoughts and ideas of those who comment here at our host’s site are interesting and informational.
      Be Well to all Who pass this Way

    • I didn’t know EJ wrote one.. I have ky’s and I have a couple of Cody’s.. I wanted to send the grandkids to his aboriginal survival school.. if I was to get lost in the wilderness and I had a choice..I want it to be with Laura zerra or Cody Lunin.. she’s bad ass and he’s got it all figured out..

      I never did ask Laura how her apple cider turned out..

  25. “The Oil Painting Analogy

    He describes Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. These were War, Famine, Pestilence, and Death. Based on present news flows,

    we can now be reasonably certain that John’s order may have been wrong.”

    Um, I don’t think so.

    “Skeptics will no doubt quibble but ask yourself, “Does the definition of “pestilence” fit COVID?”

    “…a fatal epidemic disease, especially bubonic plague.
    “neither prayers nor demonstrations halted the advance of the pestilence”

    Of course it does.

    Does it fit the definition of “Biblical pestilence?”

    Did it kill 2.6 BILLION people?

    No? Then it does not rise to the level of “pestilence” required to meet the standard brought forth in The Revelation (that standard being 1/3 of all mankind…)

    Assuming current population, do the math:

    The first horseman is going to kill 2.6 BILLION people.
    The second horseman is going to kill 1.6 BILLION people.
    The third horseman is going to kill 1.2 BILLION people.

    The shit what’s goin’ down ain’t even in the same universe as the real thing.

    When it happens, if we’re still alive, I’m pretty sure we’ll notice…

    • A book based on the recollections and memory based on massive drug trips . All ought to peruse the “black bible”, the apocryphal books that were “suppressed” by jewish scholars, or or the Septuagint
      The original Greek writings make a mockery of judeo christian beliefs, that are “outta this Universe”.

      Everything in the good book is based on the “mystery cult” , (Hello Dionysus) whose foundations are Hallucinogenic Drugs and Child Trafficking. Abraham and Sarah – pirate leaders plying the Med with “Burning Purple” and Children..remembr story bout abe lost in the desert bout to kill his own Son ?!
      The 40 days & 40 nights of the child trafficker in the desert tripping his ballz off = trippingballz.
      That described meeting with devil/satan ? Everyone who who does the Mystery must have a trial over /for SOUL with devil as prosecutor – needs know the “formula” to successfully defends one SOUL and win (maintain sanity) after the ritual is over. Yes Death is part of the ritual – jc “must be born again” happened to in the middle of his when caught red handed in the garden..Yes Vinagar is hard antidote to “burning purple” – as his (jc) people were trying to “Narcan” his nasty ass while nailed to cross. Burning purple opens Ure minds eye to wonderous things..incuding the ability to Prophecy. At least that is what the ancient Greek and Latin tells us today.
      RE: Dr Amon Hillman/Youtube – teaching ancient Greek, and entertaining translations of ancient texts..
      “must en-christ Ure Eyes, so that you may See”. christ = Drug/pharmacon.

      – not even stonehenge..

  26. “Hammering Hegseth: Police report reveals assault allegations against defense nominee Hegseth”

    Pete Hegseth is a “Greek god.” He is very pretty.

    Police report discounts the “rape” claim. Female did not want her libido to wreck her marriage so she invented the “rape” to excuse herself from seducing and banging Hegseth (twice.) Next morning Female cried rape, cops took her to da hospital, where a rape kit was run. Rape kit showed no force; tox screen showed no “date rape drug.” Prosecutor determined sex was consensual and charges would be groundless.
