Let’s see here, since I last wrote, we’ve had the Las Vegas shooting incident, Hurricane what’s her name absolutely destroying the critical infrastructure of Puerto Rico, the Catalona vote, Japan seeking to purchase nukes from the US, a mainstream article declaring that the UK oil industry only has about a decade of production left, a wrapping up of the US Senate’s Russia-Trump investigation, The Saudi King visiting Moscow, and the Fukushima operator given the green light to restart nuclear reactors.  Okay, so it has been one of those intensely emotional newsweeks then.

Already, there is speculation that Puerto Rico will only gain electricity a few months from now, which means they are going to die in large numbers because they have no crops left and their water system is a mess.  While Germany sends resources to help, the US, well, I suppose paper towels are resources?  Meanwhile, Dominica and Haiti have also suffered substantial losses, and nobody talks about them much in my circle of friends and news.  Probably has something to do with the US citizens in Puerto Rico, and the debt that can never be repaid?

There is also rampant speculation that the Las Vegas shooter was, shall we say, helped significantly by the Deep State to increase the feasibility of police State overreach and gun control.  Normally, I’d be all over this stuff, because I love conspiracy theories.  The more woo-woo and bat-shit crazy, the better for my entertainment.  Yeah, the chances of somebody showing up with that much ammo and guns, and removing that heavy of a window all by himself without training, and with an injury preventing him from lifting much does sound just a little bit farfetched to me, although still within the realm of dedicated premeditated possibility.  Was he a lone shooter on anti-depressants again?  Was he MK-Ultraed?  Do I care anymore?

Once again, I find myself with toxic news burnout.  There’s always a Hurricane, or an Earthquake, or a Tsunami, or a Terror Attack, whether false flag or not.  It really doesn’t matter to me whether the guy had help or not, because the outcome is the same: more divide and conquer and more police interference in daily life.  That’s just another POSIWID benefit.  We don’t care about the shooter’s intentions.  We don’t care about Mr. Global’s intentions in attempting to create a cashless society.  We only care about what actually physically happens.  It makes a lot of things simpler just to consider things that way.  What happens?  Fear fear fear.

With that much fear hanging around in the air, people isolate themselves.  They don’t reach out to each other for help, or just simple companionship.  Some people do, who have been taught appropriate manners and coping mechanisms.  Some people do, who have an active meditation practice, and can see the fear for what it is, toxic, and where it comes from, seeing the inevitable pain and suffering of the entire planet.  That’s what you’ve got on social media, by the way.  Even through the lies, you can see the fear, the knowing they’re being lied to, the knowing they’re lying to everybody else, saying everything is fine.  When it isn’t fine.  How could it be fine?  Most people, when they witness pain and suffering on any scale, aren’t fine.  They have sympathy pain and suffering too.

Today, I acknowledge that I am afraid of some things, and that I feel pain, and that I suffer.  Oh, but those people over there are suffering more!  Yeah, that may be true.  However, there are always people “more” than you.  More intelligent, more hungry, faster, more frightened, more disabled, more compassionate, more awake, more selfish, more successful, happier, and more depressed, than you will ever be.  Don’t let anybody diminish your pain that you feel.  Don’t let anybody diminish your worth, your sanity, your ability to make good decisions with the limited information you have.  Don’t let anybody tell you that you have to be sad for anybody else all the time.  If you look for evil and sadness in the world you will always find it.  Instead, look for happiness.  Look for the truth, even when it is surrounded by lies upon lies.  Don’t live your life in fear.
