baffledWe are now in the third year of these open posts. As the phrase "died suddenly" repeats in the mass media like a mantra, statistics for work days lost to illness and all-cause mortality mount up in heavily vaccinated nations, and more and more ugly facts about the official response to Covid spill out into public, we are entering what may well turn out to be the most difficult period of the Covid disaster -- the phase in which denial rises in lockstep with the death rate, and a great many people try not to admit what has been done to them by the people and institutions they trusted. It could get ugly, folks.

So it's time for another open post. The rules are the same as before: 

1. If you plan on parroting the party line of the medical industry and its paid shills, please go away. This is a place for people to talk openly, honestly, and freely about their concerns that the party line in question is dangerously flawed and that actions being pushed by the medical industry et al. are causing injury and death. It is not a place for you to dismiss those concerns. Anyone who wants to hear the official story and the arguments in favor of it can find those on hundreds of thousands of websites.

2. If you plan on insisting that the current situation is the result of a deliberate plot by some villainous group of people or other, please go away. There are tens of thousands of websites currently rehashing various conspiracy theories about the Covid-19 outbreak and the vaccines. This is not one of them. What we're exploring is the likelihood that what's going on is the product of the same arrogance, incompetence, and corruption that the medical industry and its tame politicians have displayed so abundantly in recent decades. That possibility deserves a space of its own for discussion, and that's what we're doing here. 
 
3. If you plan on using rent-a-troll derailing or disruption tactics, please go away. I'm quite familiar with the standard tactics used by troll farms to disrupt online forums, and am ready, willing, and able -- and in fact quite eager -- to ban people permanently for engaging in them here. Oh, and I also lurk on other Covid-19 vaccine skeptic blogs, so I'm likely to notice when the same posts are showing up on more than one venue. 

4. If you don't believe in treating people with common courtesy, please go away. I have, and enforce, a strict courtesy policy on my blogs and online forums, and this is no exception. The sort of schoolyard bullying that takes place on so many other internet forums will get you deleted and banned here. Also, please don't drag in current quarrels about sex, race, religions, etc. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules. 

With that said, the floor is open for discussion.

Speaking of bonkers. There is a block of buildings near where the bus I take to the subway turns. It dawned on me on day the buildings weren't there. I looked at them carefully - they do seem to be there. But the thought persisted - persists - that they are 'not there.' I have no idea whatsover what that means. Why on earth would I have that thought? I never thought the gas station across the street 'wasn't there' or the subway station itself.

Hope it works out for your son Liam and you get good or acceptable news about this 'product.'
I understand how it can be exhausting for the young people who just want to get on with their lives
to negotiate the dangers we feel.
Look how reasonable I sound. I'm torn apart in reality.
I have a granddaughter who is a pin cushion for this crap.

I'm sorry to ask this. It seems so small compared to others. I can't afford dental work that I desperately need.
My mouth is falling apart. It's not cosmetic. I need a wind to bring me some opportunity that yields fruit or something.
Thank you.

i cried for your loss, the love you and James share is something that i aspired to my whole life but have never achieved.


once some of the shock has passed
i hope that you can see James like this:

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die

i was eating some of the left over pizza i immediately ordered after i read Papa G said it's okay to nap a lot and EAT A LOT! i'd forgotten that a few weeks without new groceries, i was FAMISHED. so i ordered a regular old-fashioned pepperoni pizza pie from haystack in noe valley. the lack of foofy trendy pizza stuff and just plain simple unpretentious blue collar pizza reminds of the east coast and comforts me.

so i was eating some heated up left overs, waiting for the hospital bed guy to pick up the bed, and i read more of the love letters to us and i saw your first line: "the love you and James share is something that i aspired to my whole life but have never achieved," i instantly broke into sobs and almost CHOKED ON MY PIZZA.

thanks for upending my despair into gratitude, because others have told me this and i'm stunned. what a tragedy because we weren't supposed to even STAY together. we made no "sense." but as James said one time he tried to leave me and only made it to the Nevada border where he called me and turned around, he said, "as much as we fight, still it's better with you than anywhere else."

he always felt drawn to come back Home to me.

so we were forced to try to be creative and work things out OUR WAY, which is hard when you've so few examples of creative relationships that follow no known templates or even ideals. we dared to Not Know.

thank you for that poem. i hear it feel it SEE it even now, as i just spoke with Temporary Reality this morning (she's got ESP and knew to call first thing in the morning), i could go either way with this because i feel rage at so many and so MUCH...

BUT....

i always welcome prayers since i cannot control the curses right now and i DID very much take Papa's advice and got a pizza at half over the course of one night and fell asleep.

thank you very much,

p.s. dear others thank you for all the love and kisses. i pick up the love and carry 'em around then return with what i wanna say. i get verrrry emotional then take emotion breaks then return here to read and sob all over again later. i'm here holding on to the love because i'm trying not to go "bad."

Erika,

Others have already said it all, and better than I could, but I just wanted to let you know that I‘m very, very sorry for your loss.

Hang in there!

If you want, I‘ll send you a big, heartfelt hug.

You are sharing information I know next to nothing about so I cannot reply.
I'm not brushing it off or cruising past it I just don't know what I can add.

But as for this:
Also my spiritual gunk detector detected a peak around march/april/may 2019

I had a successful (not overtly financially but in other ways) art (one of the arts) event in this exact time period. Just prior to it I was
sick with a killer flu. I remember mentioning it felt like chemical warfare. Those exact words.

S -

I don't know where you are located, but have you looked into dental schools?

I know that in New York City, some of the dental schools (Columbia, NYU) used to provide free or very low-cost dental care, if you were willing to have it done by a student under the supervision of an instructor at a teaching clinic. I never used the service myself, but a co-worker of mine used to get her dental care done at the NYU clinic, and she seemed to get perfectly good care, for free. She did say that appointments had to be made well in advance, and also that the work took a longer than going to a regular dentist (because of the teaching aspect), but it saved her a lot of money.

I'm not sure if that would be an option for you, but it might be worth checking out? Put words like dental-school-teaching-clinic-NameOfCity into a search engine and see what you find. Depending on how rural you are, you might have to travel to a bigger city or a university town, and it might take time to get an appointment, but still - can't hurt to check, right?

Hi S., I will add your request to the prayer list. No prayer is too small where there is real need.
