— visiting New Brunswick, half hoping they won’t let me back into the USA on my way home – I thought I’d write something -but I left my password book back home in New York State – ( accidentally on purpose? ) – and luckily – Jim’s older Mac Pro – running Mac OSX 10.13.6 (???) has the last time I signed in from his computer – in memory – ( who’d’a thunk it? ) so if this works – Yay! if not – I’ll have to write my insights down in ink in a notebook and leave it with my sweety – I have my work iPhone with me with all the security guard scheduling stuff and that should drive the border guys ‘ape-potty’ – I told them I had to leave my work ‘piece’ locked up in my home safe because the Canadian border guys don’t want me bringing it here – ( heavy sigh ) so – let’s just cut to the cliche-like chase and save this and see what we get?

—> Two random women who’ve suffered through several different kinds of Hell in this life time met on a beach while seeking solitude to reflect on the states of their lives – they talked for hours and thought they’d found their best friends forever.

—> Two months later they’ve moved in together and they’re beginning to get on each others’ nerves.

—> Person “X” is triggered by everything she sees seemingly out of place in her apartment where she believes there should be ‘a place for everything and everything in its place.’.

—> Person “Y” is triggered by anyone who tries to force anyone and everyone into adopting her solutions to what she believes are universal problems, but really, are things that only bother herself to distraction.

—> It occurs to Person “Y” that these two women’s possible relationship, platonic or otherwise, might have been doomed before it began.

2025-08-11_Before & After Screenshots = trouble signing in to todays’ GFL’ Conference –

Monday, August 11, 2025 = +35˚C / 96˚F = Hot, Sunny, & Dusty @ 6:33 pm ADT in New Brunswick Canada –

— I paid for the ‘Creator’ level subscription something like three or four months ago –

— Today – I Had a heckuva time trying to sign in and pay through PayPal to attend the August “GFL” Video conference on EA’s web site —> trying to click on ‘pay with PayPal’ kept redirecting me to “Choose how to purchase { or pay for this conference? }”

— Okay – I’m a Virgo – Mercury’s supposed to be the ruling planet of Virgo – and I thought I got through this latest ‘Mercury Retch’ season relatively unscathed –

— I’m also a septuagenarian and an early arriving Indigo Child, and INFP – Empath? Yoga nut – with trouble maintaining any kind of perfect discipline – & yeah, a Virgo with the sign of Cancer as my Rising sign and my natal moon in Aries – and I’m pretty sure the medications my over anxious doctor is prescribing in the last five years are messing with my ability to concentrate and also messing up my ‘used to be fantastic’ memory.

— I switched to my laptop – that has the latest Mac OS – and the latest versions of Firefox – and the last time the ‘sign in and pay for this conference’ routine brought me back to the ‘Used to be completed” but once again unfinished form – I thought it might want me to add a phone number {{{?}}} so I added our land line here and then it looked like when I clicked on ‘pay with PayPal’ – everything was fine –

— I got a nice “Thank you” from an EA Bot – and tried to find the link to ‘goto the zoom app’ but instead it shot me back to, “How are you going to pay for this?” and what looked like links saying “Galactic Federation of Humanity” with a bunch of small icons flashing by with people’s handles and quickly disappearing –  { ??? }

— And then I noticed that at the top right of EA’s Web Page it had my avatar – but instead of the ‘Creator’ icon there was a “Seeker” icon – Below should be two screen shots – the first one sat on one of my handy but older computers since before 5:00 pm and the second one is from 6:16 pm –

*** How do I get my ‘Creator’ status back ? *** – { The Love of my Life {{ Cathi }} whose photo should show up below the icon for my SSD That I named “Ganesh” and under Cathi’s Iconic photo it says “Hubbudah” – a pet name that goes back to a friend who tried to say “Yeah but-” and instead ended up babbling, “Hubbudah hubbudah hubbudah” – { – Sweetheart of a guy who liked psychedelic drugs an awful lot and often forgot how to form the correct words while zooming around in the Psychedelic universe. -} {{{ Um, Cathi thinks I should never pay for anything on EA’s site if we can’t get this resolved – I was more worried that the site might have been hacked – and the confusion here is not EA’s or her team’s fault at all – And Lately – when she seems to be not having a wonderful time to put it lightly – I keep wanting to let her know that she can have all the virtual hugs she can handle from me and my higher self any time – any day – }}}

= = =

-"Before"-

– “Screen shot taken before 5:00 pm ADT” –

— If this comes through large enough to recognize the icons on the right side of EA’s page you’ll be able to tell that before I had a rough time trying to sign in – I was still recognized as a subscriber at the ‘Creator’ level.

 

-"After"-

– “Screen shot of EA’s Web site ‘After’ I managed to sign in and then sign in to PayPal-” –

— & This is the ‘After’ Screen shot – taken at 6:16 pm Atlantic Daylight Time – in which I have been demoted to a ‘Seeker’ level subscriber ?

This Is Me - Last Night

– Selfie of Me at 11:19 pm Last Night. { January 23rd, 2025 –

— Let’s see – I paid a woman on line ten dollars and she told me I entered the Material Universe for the first time in the Orion Sector and then spent a lot of time with the Pleiadians – She had a lot of celebrities listed and where they were before they came to this Earth – Taking everything with lots of grains of salt – But the only person listed as coming from Orion and then the Pliades was Ian Anderson – the guiding force behind the Rock Band  Jethro Tull. I could live with that.

— I was six years old when the Brooklyn Dodgers won the 1955 World Series – The next year the Yankees beat them and as far as I’m concerned – there is absolutely nothing good about the Yankees – I call them the ‘New York Nahtzies’ when none of my friends who like them are anywhere they can hear me grumbling – The black and white on the monitor above the other one in the center of this selfie is our ‘Deer Cam’ ‘Security Camera’ – There was a white “Spirit Deer” among them when we first moved into this house in 2013 and our neighbour – Connie Pond – fed them so we kind of joined in and started tossing our four legged friends quite a lot of Whole Oats from the Farm Co-op store about 4 Kilometres from here.

— Dreams? —> I was probably five years old when I dreamed I was at a birthday party with Clarabell the Clown and most of the cast of the Howdy Doody Show – I thought it was my birthday party – and Jesus showed up, asked me if I would go with Him – I told Him my parents told me not to leave the yard { it was my Paternal Grandparents Yard where we had several yard parties every year – } Beginning of summer, July Birthdays – Labor Day – We also had cold weather winter parties inside their house. Jesus didn’t press and after He went away – Well – that left quite an impression on me and I spiritually kicked myself for years about not going with Him – but – when I was 21 years old, with a couple friends – we were at someone’s house who had a guest and the guest asked for volunteers to try a light trance regression – I volunteered – told the guy about that experience and he had me relax and when he was satisfied that I was relaxed enough he asked me to go back to that moment and asked what would have happened if I did go with Jesus – I saw the path through the woods behind my grandparents’ house and at the end the path there was this very white parabolic chute going up into the sky – We concluded that I would have been given a tour of Heaven and maybe a couple more of the Many Mansions I later heard about in Sunday School and other spiritual sources. & Oh – I had recently been ‘Christened’ in the Episcopal Church before I started Kindergarten on my fifth birthday and got my bum spanked in front of a lot of kids I’d never seen before that first day of school.

— That hypnotist also asked if there was anything else I wanted to check out while I was in that state – Well, yeah, —> When I was five years old, I’d already had a rough time getting to sleep when my parents put to bed. One night – I wasn’t quite asleep when I heard a voice ask me, “Do you know who I Am?” I answered, “Yes, you’re my Grandfather.” And he went on to say, “There is someone over here who believes you would make a pretty good writer in this life and if you say yes, some of the details you agreed to when you came into this life will be changed and He says you’ll probably like this path better -” I said, “Yes” and a couple years later thought I’d better get on the stick and start writing – I wrote a story about a dog and a rabbit who were best friends even if everybody told them they were supposed to be enemies – I wasn’t sure where that should go and I don’t believe I ever brought their relationship to any Hollywood movie type heroic conclusion, but when the hypnotist was guiding me back to that moment he asked me to describe the person who was talking to me – I looked around and saw my paternal grandmother’s Father – my great Great Grandfather – one of two I’d known in this life – and he was tall and thin and had his partially nicotine stained moustache, and he was wearing a light blue suit – { I got up and went into my parents’ bedroom and told them I’d just talked to grandpa and they told me I’d been dreaming and told me to go back to bed. I also saw a couple parades of white ghostly spirits floating over my head from the east side of the bedroom – and my sister – who shared that room with me before we were seven and nine years old {I was nine – she was seven ) She said she saw the parade too – we didn’t try to tell our parents – we didn’t want to get yelled at for not already being sound asleep.

— Lucid Dreams? – My first almost lucid dream came when I was asleep in a bed in a rented duplex on Baird Court in Stratford, Connecticut, USA. My father was raking leaves outside the window that was open and had screens in place. I thought each time he raked I was hearing a Frankenstein like monster dragging his feet coming toward me – I was probably six years old – something like that – but then somebody narrated a story about not so friendly beings who sucked the life out of people. In the dream somebody opened a closet door and there was a man wearing a grey suit with marks where someone had used a vacuum cleaner to suck the life out of him. He was dead. And didn’t look too good.

— Other not too comfortable dreams? I was standing in a dead landscape, no vegetation – just dead trees – and the ruins of an abandoned city were in the distance.  A bunch of slow moving people were limping toward me – many were missing one leg, some were missing one leg and one arm – and a comforting voice told me, “They cut off their limbs to feed the demons who promised them power-” and I got the distinct impression that it didn’t end well for them – and then I thought the person who told me why they were limping and hobbling along with crutches and not able to move very quickly – got me out of there and told me that we’d been on what was left of the planet Mars.

— Creepy things tried to scare me when I was in my early twenties, Sleeping in my parents’ home when the home I was sharing rent with several friends was degenerating fast – Three of us rented a house on East Broadway in Milford, Connecticut and somebody named Bill Clinton rented the house next door while he was attending Yale – i think Grad School – When he took time off to work on Joseph Lieberman’s campaign for office and sublet the house to one of the guys who’d moved into the house we started out as three and in a couple weeks there were ten people there and I had a night job and found people sleeping in my bed when I came home and one guy complained about me complaining with “I’m tired of being the low man on the totem pole around here -” anyway I was sleeping uneasily and trying to wake up – had a very vivid dream that a woman was standing next to the bed I was sleeping in – and she was wearing like an 1890’s dark violet-blue velvet dress – I couldn’t look up to see her face –  and a glove came up at the edge of the bed almost the same colour as that dress and waved six fingers at me – when I told my brother about that dream he made me watch the opening segment of a horror movie where a hand like that with six fingers came up out of a grave and was looking for something to grab on to and drag back down into the grave – My brother thought that was cool and couldn’t believe I’d never seen that opening bit for a running series of episodic horror features.

— But also – I saw what looked to me like Roman legions marching with their spears toward a crowd of people and were pushing them over a high cliff onto rocks below and a pleasant voice told me, “She tried to help the ‘Things’ in Atlantis fight for human rights and was killed by the military along with them – And she’s been a rebel ever since.”

— Other dreams before I started taking Raja Yoga {Spiritual Yoga} lessons – I saw page 258 of a book with minarets in the distance while I read the first line – and a voice told me “He should have read the book about the Moslem Mystics.” I found a copy of “The Sufis” by Idries Shah in a book store, opened it to page 258 – and yup – that was the book. I also found little books by Pir O Murshid Hazrat Inayat Khan in a used book store – and bought them, gave them to friends after I read them cover to cover and when I checked out the Yale and Dartmouth book stores I found a lot of books written by Idries Shah – Including a book of the sayings of Nasruddin – which were uplifting and even funny in places.

 

Aeslynne, Stargazing

— In my next instalment, I’ll probably try to explain the game world I spent more than ten years trying to build – where I was guaranteed to have been grandfathered for life – but a change of management  and the new people didn’t think they had to honour that – Grumble grumble grumble – Shrug – ehhhh-

— I wanted to build a computer game where all kinds of players could have fun and didn’t have to kill every thing in sight to prosper and earn themselves a good time and probably even learn things in the process. So of course the Beedy Grastards in this world couldn’t allow that to happen.

— “I have learned this from Philosophy – that I do out of choice what others do only out of fear of the Law -‘ I think that’s a quote from Aristotle – look it up. it may be a loose quote, modernized or whatever.

— And while I’m at it – Let me post my friend, Doug’s poll : Don’t try to enter anything in the following poll – it’s copied and pasted and I do not believe the original poll is still available to see how much of a minority opinion – or not – you hold:

-Xhyrean + Jessicka In Her Early 20s-"

– “Xhyrean – With Jessicka { In her Early Twenties ) – Exploring the safe Parallel World he discovered that they called the “New Earth” -” –

— (( The Game World I spent more than ten years designing —> With the name “Aerendel” that I first used in 1973 after reading the Lord of the Rings trilogy in two weeks my first time through it – where I was transported into Tolkien’s world – to the point where I could hear the bugs and birds chirping and peeping in the forests and almost couldn’t recognize my hand when I turned the pages }}

— Xhyrean has no idea how old he is, he was recruited by an Ascended Master and whisked off to a planet that hovers on the line between portals between the Material, Astral, and Causal Universes – and his ‘boss’ who sometimes appears as a fourteen feet tall pure bright white being with wings, and sometimes appears as a normal-ish six feet tall ‘humanoiod’ – won’t tell Xhyrean who he is – says Xhyrean already knows who he is and has had bits of his memory blocked by traumatic events. that he will overcome – and remember everything – But until then, his ‘boss’ sends him into various Earth Like Parallel worlds and dimensions where he aged into dimentia after about sixty years, was rescued and regenerated and told that he’ll have to learn to regenerate himself – which he barely managed to do the next time he aged to the point where he was all aches and pains – and because he keeps being sent to worlds where time passes differently – he thinks he’s about 350 years old and feels like a late teenager most of the time –

—Xhyrean rescued Jessicka as a 16 year old about to be raped and probably murdered by a monster commanding a legion of monsters that jumped from world to world and killed and raped everything in sight – and nearly died in the process – but jumped through a portal his boss probably sent him and landed in a world where Elves lived in a cavern for safety and their leader was training young Elves how to use the laws of higher dimensions to heal people and animals they saved from certain death – where it took Xhyrean and the Elves six months to heal him to the point where he could see another wild portal and jump through it to bring Jessicka back home where her parents heard her story and were convinced that she’d had a psychotic break and threw her out of their house – { Wonderful, Enlightened Bostonians, they were. }

— Jessicka walked down the steps of their brownstone where Xhyrean was waiting and suddenly grew to eight feet tall with very angelic white wings, picked her up and flew away. Her parents almost died of heart attacks on the spot.

— They eventually found their way to a parallel world where the vibrations were high enough to activate latent DNA to the point where Jessicka began to grow a little more almost imperceptibly and her ears grew points –  (( <— That is the short synopsis of the ending of one of my unpublished novels, “Llyn Ellyn / Deep Water Still Runs” — Jessicka spends a lot of time hoping and praying that Xhyrean, who saved her life and brought her to a world where the locals don’t like her – the young women are afraid their boy friends will dump them to court Jessicka as soon as Xhyrean dies – and Jessicka has been assigned to tend to his wounds and fully believes that the dreams he tells her about —> including his encounters with his ‘Ascended Master’ boss – are symptoms of what her psychiatrist father snarled and described as, “the fantasies of a dying mind very near the end of life.-” when she came home from school with a library book on the subject of ‘Near Death Experiences’. She cried a lot. {{{ & When it looked like Xhyrean wasn’t going to die the Elves’ leader – a Woman named Drahanna – convinced Xhyrean and Jessicka – when she was sixteen and maybe seven months old – that they better get married to keep the young women in that place from doing something desperate, like poisoning her so their boyfriends won’t keep believing they could seduce the exotic person from ‘somewhere outside their protected community’. }}} Xhyrean whispered that as long as they didn’t consummate the marriage after the Elvish ceremony she could get their marriage annulled – all they had to do was find a Catholic Priest who believed that they’d been taken to another planet and forced to get married and had no intention of consummating that – Good luck with that? }}

12 Neighbours Eff-book Header

– “12 Neighbours Community” – ‘Eff-Book’ Header’ –

• The 12 Neighbours Community has an “Eff-book” presence @ https://www.facebook.com/12Neighbours/
• The “12 Neighbours Community” in the photo that should be above this – was concieved of by a local millionaire as a means to not only make sure homeless people have a warm and safe “tiny home” as a place to live, but a supportive network of people around them. The community with 96 tiny homes – grouped into smaller clusters of 12 tiny homes each – is located on a main-ish road { “Two Nations Road” } which, I believe, is through “First Nations Land” { the Canadian version of “Native American Sovereign Territory” } – And along with the 96 tiny homes is a larger building with rooms/apartments for once homeless people who are more comfortable with apartment living than private home living. AND the Community Centre in that larger building has rooms for meetings and class rooms AND a restaurant “Neighbourly Coffee” where the residents of the 12 Neighbours Community can find ‘gainful supportive/nurturing caring employment’. PLUS some of the earliest residents when there were only a handful of tiny homes there – had a hand in constructing the rest of the tiny homes there, and they are building more tiny homes that will be for sale – { I don’t know how much they will cost, but I love that idea. I really like the idea that this community is based on.
• Meanwhile – the ice-hole conservatives in the New Brunswick provincial government have weakened the laws that were put in place to protect renters and fought bills that would in any way weaken landlords’ rights to raise the rent to insanely high prices and evict tennants from low income housing, demolish the existing buildings and put up high priced, high end high rise condo type apartments. Calling these political conservatives “Beedy Grastards” up here is an exercise in stretching ‘redundant’ beyond the limits of reason.
• Also Meanwhile like : We’re getting spam phone calls from National Conservative Party shills asking us if they can count on our support at a rally featuring the Beedy Grastard who has been demonizing anything ‘Liberal’ and trying to convince voters that if they don’t elect a majority Conservative ‘Government’ in the next elections Canada will become a totalitarian ’Socialist’ State complete with Gulags and taxes @ something like 5,000% beyond ridiculous.
• AND the love of my life and I cannot understand why so many people have been duped into voting for the Beedy Grastards who promise “Tax Cuts” in every election – and deliver tax cuts to the richest beedy grastards in this country and deliver cuts in services to everybody else. Time for a heavy metal version of “When will they ever learn” ?
• Ya think the greedy will realize how badly they ‘Fupped Up’ only after the working public they screwed out of decent paying jobs can no longer afford to pay for their shoddy merchandise and they all go bankrupt financially? Instead of just being bankrupt spiritually and philosophically like they have been all along?
• Schnarr!

“What you see is Perception, Not the Truth” – Marcus Aurelius.

— Wednesday, January 23rd, 2019 – -12˚C / +10˚F & cloudy in Atlantic Canada @ 11:11 am – & updated @ 4:35 pm Atlantic time = with -8˚C / +17˚F & ‘Heavy Snow’ falling here – according to my weather app. –

Red in the Morning.

– “Red in the Morning” – sunrise in Marysville, January 23rd, 2019 – 7:47 am – Atlantic Time –

— An opening line from the original “Kung-Fu” teevee series that stuck with me all this time: “To learn all there is to know about the good in this world, one lifetime is not enough – To learn all there is to know about evil – one hour is too much.”

—> The Hindu model of the cycles of life in the material world – and they kept knowledge from rumoured golden ages when we on earth may have had technologies that dwarf what we have today – says that at about 500 AD we hit rock bottom in a 26,000 year cycle that effects our ability to think and reason and live – at rock bottom most ‘intelligent’ life on earth could only understand the purely physical. The ‘vibrations’ in that region of the material universe are so dense they make it nearly impossible to use our minds to anything like our full potential.

— In about 1500 AD we progressed to the next level where most sentient life could understand the concept of electricity – electricity could travel through metal like water could travel through a sponge. { So maybe a soul could live inside a physical body? }

— We may be approaching the next higher level – where most of us will understand that magnetism can control electricity and effect the physical aspects of life. { I’m not sure whether human consciousness goes up and/or down through 3 or 4 levels of understanding and ability to perceive and think – The Hindu model says we have seven physical ‘chakras’ or energy centers in our bodies. The lowest one is the sexual center – which actually operates on energy that is higher and finer than some of the higher centers. There is a reason that human beings feel ‘religious experiences’ during and just after sexual experiences – especially when higher emotion, like love, empathy, or appreciation, admiration, and stuff like that is involved. – But human consciousness can almost certainly evolve to the point where we can use our higher intellectual functions to control magnetism and thereby electro-magnetic currents and forces, etc. – The physical center is next up the ladder, then the lower intellectual center – {{ego}} Then the emotional center – {{ Emotions happen faster and at a finer level than ‘academic thought’ – You can’t control your emotions with your ego }} –  Then there’s the higher intellectual center – where creativity and inspiration come through – above that we become aware of ‘super-consciousness’ where ‘saints’ and psychopaths can tune in on ‘spooky interactions at a distance’ and perceive stuff going on in parallel dimensions and either believe they’re losing their minds or cross their fingers and hope they’re experiencing evolution on a personal level. – above that individuals discover ‘psychic’/’spiritual’ powers – like telekinesis and astral travel and all that fantastic stuff that pseudo science calls delusion, because if they haven’t experienced something – it doesn’t exist in their understanding and when their egos are empowered – they have to strike out and convince themselves that anybody who ‘believes’ in that kind of ‘nonsense’ must be delusional at best and psychotic at worst – and probably dangerous. – Dangerous to anybody with a closed mind and shaky grasp of what reality just might be all about. } { When you are fully identified with your sexual center, guess what you want to do? – When you are fully identified with your physical center you probably want to remain at rest forever – When you click in to your lower intellectual center you like to learn and quantify and label and count – When you click in to your emotional center – you want to hug a lot and nurture a lot & you may want to get even with real and/or imaginary slights by people you care about – or anyone who threatens those you care about. — When you click in to your higher intellectual center – you want to know who we are, where we came from, is there a God? Is there life after physical death – do our parents and teachers have any idea what is actually happening here? – And you start to get answers and hunger and thirst for more — When you click into your ‘higher emotional center’ you feel overwhelming love and compassion for all beings and want to communicate with Buddhas and Saints and Sages and Spiritual Masters – and you start by hoping that it is true that all true religious teachers have discovered that the ultimate Truth behind all Religions is constant and all the truly ‘enlightened’ ones agree completely on what Heaven and Earth are all about and the perceived differences between religious teachings come about because that ‘One Truth’ has to be described in terms that people in all the various cultures and levels of understanding can grasp and believe in. —> And there may actually be more and higher levels – but if you haven’t been ‘infected’ with the experience of slightly higher levels – and never had the kind of experience that really opens your eyes and heart and mind – you probably won’t believe there is anything out there or up there – so ‘They’ tell us ‘we can’t get there from here’ and if you try to stay on top of the ocean – you sink – and if you try to sink – you float { Thank You Allan Watts } – and if you spend time and energy trying to see into the Divine before you’re ready, all you’re going to get is frustration – so for now – just believe that unlimited consciousness and immortality in the depths of your consciousness is possible { but a few attitudes and ‘states of mind’ might need to change along the way – and you’ll have to wait and see what all that is like when it happens to you. }

— The last big jump up for those of us in the material universe might come in a couple more thousand years when most of us understand that consciousness can control magnetism, which can control electricity, which can effect physical/material objects. – This would be the fabled ‘golden age’ When the majority of sentient beings on this planet begin to understand what life is all about, why we’re here and what ‘God’ might be all about.

{ This explanation of mine is probably an extremely basic, almost simplistic explanation of what Hindu philosophers and ‘saints’ discovered many thousand years ago, back before Göbekli Tepe days, possibly before Gilgamesh and his gang were here. }

— And the ‘Don’t take anything I say as the Ultimate Truth of all existence – Test it – and see if you can punch holes in it – run it up the flagpole and see if anybody drags it down and burns it – and then try to figure out what their agenda might be.’ – cautionary warning label here could be that no giant steps forward by our whole diverse population can be guaranteed when you add the monkey wrench of free will into that equation. – But without that monkey wrench we just might wither and die spiritually.

— I should quit here, but let me add that the Hindu philosophers have preserved the idea or ‘knowledge’ that the material universe is the lowest and smallest of several dimensional universes, with the ‘Astral’ or emotional universe being the next finest and much larger universe, where many believe we all go when we dream, — and then the ‘Causal’ or higher intellectual universe is that much finer and larger than the ‘Astral’ universe – and those who have progressed to that level can create anything they want to by exercising the power of their minds —> and there is something beyond the Causal universe that we’re not supposed to be able to comprehend until we graduate from the gross, mind-numbing electro-magnetic disturances that rule the material universe. } <— Could this be a decent hypothesis to test and think about and try to prove or disprove? Rumours from the Golden ages hint that science without an open mind is like trying to walk or run with one leg paralyzed.
