@1goodtern Hi! I really respect and appreciate your work on Covid, thank you 🙏🏻 Do you recommend people - esp with compromised immune systems - get the annual flu vaccine? Or can you point to helpful on this please?

I had a conversation with a guy who said that all the increased illness is because we all took the covid vaccines. I then asked him when all the illness comes, and he said it comes during the covid waves and afterwards. So I asked him whether people should do anything to stop catching Covid and he didn't know what to say.

Those with chronic illness will start to feel a little better and immediately try to catch up on life. We don’t know how long the good days will last, so we try and take advantage of it. Eventually, we do too much and end up right back in a flare. It’s an endless cycle.

@SpierWineFarm Curious as to how many free tickets were available for each night, since they are all “sold out” for every night yet none of the other options are 🤔 Such a pity. Our family has enjoyed this event every year.

People are quick to judge dark thoughts that come with chronic illness without understanding where they come from. When you’re in pain all the time, exhausted all the time, and losing pieces of your life in real time, your brain starts thinking in terms of relief. That doesn’t always mean you want to give up on life or give up fighting. Sometimes it’s just what prolonged suffering can do to a person mentally.

Welcome to the spring #Equinox , the new astrological year that starts today instead of 21st. Its called the vernal #equinox, and its no longer in ♈ but has been moved into ♓ by the precession of the equinoxes. March 20 ushers in light and life. Also yours truly bday 😂

@balefulrays Would you say the enmeshment with your field influences the object? Eg are you a very persistent person & thus the TV persists? If you were flaky it would be too? Or would you say the acknowledgement itself imbues it with the ‘potential’ of you, whether actualised or not?

There’s a reason my television still works nearly 20 years later - if you acknowledge the spirit of an object you imbue that spirit with the energy of human consciousness. Material that is enmeshed in your energetic field is sustained by the same forces that sustain your field.

Afroman is the hero we all need right now.

It is truly refreshing to hear someone as Jeffrey Sachs laying bare the brutal facts.....

@OfficerofEngin1 This post came up on my FYP without being viral or overlap in our circles… Thank you for writing it and sharing it with the unknown world. I don’t know how we humans bear the grief we do. I’m so sorry.

A life moment today. Time to make some impossible decisions. I moved to Japan just before Covid struck with my wife, dog, cat, and life savings in tow. We were fleeing a life that had been turned upside down by seven miscarriages, and Japan was our fresh start. Our big plan was to open an English-style garden center. We had set plans in motion and spent a lot of money, but then Covid arrived. The plans stopped, the money disappeared, and we were forced to rethink. My background was in oil and gas and, of course, the British Army. I had contacts, but I was out of the loop and my salary would reflect that. Nevertheless, that was the plan: buy a cheap rural property and live the good life growing our own vegetables and rearing chickens and bees. The cat died just as Covid was waning, and the dog passed soon after. I think the miscarriages had made me somewhat numb to loss, but I mourned Polly the cat and Chatham the dog, and on we went. And then Yuki died one morning on her way to the train station. I wasn't with her; there had been no warning. The world ended. I didn't know what to do. I was 50, in a foreign country, family gone, friends gone, purpose gone. I dug in. I bought a house that guaranteed seclusion, and I thought about Yuki and stood guard over the memory of "us," determined that it still had some meaning and that someone remembered how special it was. I tend her grave, and that is the only time I ever feel like I have purpose. That’s been my role for four years now—living a future that I don't want and have no interest in. I can't move on, so I wait and the months pass. It's no way to live. Yesterday morning, I went to the office and was handed a long list of site visits and office trips throughout Asia. It would mean hotel rooms and being away for most of the remainder of the year. I left the paper on someone's desk and walked out, effectively giving notice. On the drive home, I stopped by a river at the base of the mountain where my house is located and sat by it for a couple of hours. I tried to imagine a path forward, tried to feel some purpose or drive to do anything but go back to the house and waste away. I considered briefly throwing myself in, but that's not me; I have far too many romantic notions to throw my life away. Much better to go down swinging, spitting in the face of the foe. I looked around, but there weren't any incoming hordes of orcs to facilitate a last stand, so I went back to the car and found that I had a puncture. Oddly, that snapped me out of it. It was just my luck to be in a place so low that I was a hair's breadth from giving up, and now the car had a puncture. If it had started raining, it would have been perfect. I changed the wheel and drove home.

Crazy

'Any Arab government that looked at US wrong way got decapitated' — journalist Sam Husseini He says many current Arab leaders are US proxies, not true representatives of their people Legacy of Washington's interventions is 'abysmal subjugation' across the region

The South African government has noted the filing of Israel's response to South Africa’s written pleadings in the case of Application of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide in the Gaza Strip (South Africa v. Israel) before the International Court of Justice (ICJ). t.ly/FbFWW

@DKAstrology This also seems significant within that theme…

Node still aligns with Mars and Lilith, I would imagine this would bring up the hurt feminist undertones and the untamed feminine into focus, and in our headlines, there is an incoming Pluto Saturn sextile, and we are still in the middle of a retrograde. Moon is still in Capricorn, ideal to go after our goals and tie off lose ends. There is a lot going on, please count until 10 today, and pick your battles.

Naledi Pandor, South Africa’s foreign minister, doesn’t mince words,she eviscerates the West’s hypocrisy, demolishing their double standards and exposing the hollow moral posturing they cling to.....

This is a dangerous person.

@Vicky @jaxonvale @RichDecibels I’m old and still not quite sure what solarpunk is. I could look it up, but I like what I have in my imagination so I don’t wanna ruin that. I apologise to both of you if the recommendation is wildly misguided 😇

@Vicky @jaxonvale @RichDecibels has something in Spain. I don’t know a lot about it but it sounds like what you described. eltilo.casa

Looking for my people. Who wants to build a regenerative village together. Think solar, soil, community, beauty, looove. Think solarpunk. Think real life. Where are you?
