*** BREAKING!! *** is the giveaway. Thanks for writing this, Tessa. It's a call for vigilance. Clickbait's gonna clickbait and sometimes you find yourself hanging off a hook. Oops!! The psyop is everywhere at this point - and it's probably been for decades, only now we see it - so staying in the heart and in love is imperative. It's the most important thing! BREAKING!!! Stay in love!!!

Yes, yes, yes. JOY is the key.

For me, making beauty is the specific key to JOY. I know when I've done it because it gets exactly zero reads. When I write random stupid observations about trendy topics I get a few reads, but when I do a Tech History Piece or salute a Lost Place, even my few semi-regular readers carefully avoid it.

Yes, we have to move forward. We should not feel discouraged, overwhelmed, powerless. However, we should not idolize our political leadership. That was the problem with Hitler. Hitler, himself, was 1 man with crazy ideas. The people “with common sense” should have said, “He’s crazy!” He is not a leader. He is an opportunist provoking the masses to do his dirty work. Sound familiar?

I would say, idolizing any human being, let alone political leadership, tends to yield extremely ineffective results :) So yes

Someone that understood politics said this: "Politics is the systematic cultivation of hatred."

Charles Maurice de Talleyrand Tessa to Her credit cultivates understanding and LOVE.

Humanity was at an average emotional age of around 12 , which advertising targeted at the time.

Today, I see humanity as adolescents. Still not adults, but getting there.

"As traumatic transformations go, the covid operation is up there with industrialisation and de-industrialisation, and for time compression it is out on its own."

"And as for the rabbit hole trope – well, I don't think we’re going down the rabbit hole at all. We’re climbing out of it into the light."

From https://realleft.substack.com/p/no-conspiracies-please-were-reality

Remember that because of the industrial revolution, we got labor and safety laws. After covid, we are going to get medical freedom laws. They can't hide the catastrophe they caused!

I call this the sequel to 1984. The party lost the trust of the masses. Look how they're trying to make us scared of war with China and Russia.... Meanwhile the oil and money still flows.

What a joke.

To use the Alice in Wonderland analogy, we were hallucinating in wonderland and now waking to real land which is much less insane.

Excellent observations! The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

In the previous impasse of the people, it was the house of panic and retreat! But in the current impasse, you are at least moving forward!!

Tessa you are carrying on the work of someone that preceded you: The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.

My wife was murdered by this Covid insanity. A number of friends injured by Covid vaccine as well. The loose resemblance to a Republic lost too. No more fig leaf disguising anatomy. The fact that habits live on need astonish none. Die Wende will come but not by vote. By accident, by consent to being beguiled, by of course personal lived life suddenly profoundly altered. The moment has astonishingly not come, Indeed it may not come for 100 years of intervention in the human genome.

You are NOT alone, I too have lost many I cared about to the Warp Speed mRNA Concoction. Over my life I've come to believe in KARMA, while I wait for KARMA to come for those responsible, I've come to value Tessa's insights.

wow - invigorating , encouraging , straight from a pure big heart !

I'm all in with that prayer and the spell(s)

That purity is the foundation of our survival and a new 'golden era'

those suffering grief due to their selfishness will attest to that

May your love (from within your core) rub off to a many

enjoy your day :)

Caricatures of ‘normies’ and ‘covidians’ constitute the insidious ploy of othering, what’s the opposite, and is love the key to seeing ourselves for both good and bad in the other? For every friend lost and relationship broken over the past 5 years would a little more love have allowed the empathy to see both sides and bridge differences, logic and reason alone won’t resolve this. Thank you

Two cents from my neighborhood: We are all “of creation” and each and every living being—animate and inanimate—are our kith and kin and we are all responsible to act towards each other with respect, reciprocity, and trustworthy and consensual conduct. The balance and harmony and abundance of the Earth and of our spiritual sociality is not something we create by our will—much less by coercive authority—but rather something we can seek to maintain alignment with through our pursuit of right relations and by seeking to restore right relations whenever our conduct has led us astray.
