Welcome to my brain. It’s messy. It’s interesting. And it’s all connected if you stick around long enough. "Believe Nothing: no matter who said, even if I have said it, except it agree with your own reason and common sense. Siddhartha Guatamo, the Buddha.

Last night sussed

Was up a bit too late working with the Techsupport team (they worked, I answered questions as needed,,,, but I had to be up to answer questions)

Full day at the shop, TOO MUCH COFFEE, as I said when talkin’ to bruddaB, “This crash is gonna leave scars!” and hoo-boy, am I crashin’ now,,,

Watching the launch of SpaceX flight 11. T-minus16m currently so I theres a few minutes yet,,,, This is the last scheduled flight of 2025, I believe they have a few right around the first of ’26, not sure but then, the way these things, go, there is quite a bit of GOV involved as well, so, with the shutdown, who knows.

If you aren’t a “fan”, flight 11 is intended to test ALL of the abilities of Booster and Starship. Booster should return to pad within 7 minutes of GO,, And watching it land on its pad is ALWAYS amazing to me: shit right out of 1950s sci-fi movies/shows. SEEING it, (and one day I will make it to Boca Chica and see it IRL). Starship is scheduled to circumnavigate the globe and return to pad in Boca Chica as well. Along with all the LEO tests they have planned, (I believe another test of the PEZ launcher among some others.)(and I just found out that Booster will NOT be returning to pad, instead doing a splash landing (and they blow the poor thing so its not a floating hazard for boats)(Totally disappointed,,,, They’re planning on an Indian Ocean splashdown again. REALLY wanna see the pad landings,,, Those are were I think they will show progress,,, Not my circus, not my monkeys though,,,)

I watch because EACH success is another step OFF THIS FRELLIN’ ROCK. I likely won’t be one of those persons, but Knowing that there is a chance,,,,

YEah,,,,

More tomorrow after I get over the road rash from my current crash,,,,

Whew!!!! Tha-was a close’un!

Some of y’uns might have seen some glitches happening here on the site, last night. Maybe, maybe not, but I thought for certain I had lost 6 days of posting,,,,

And this one was not a “did it to myself” instance,, only, yeah, I did, sorta-kinda,,,,

When I paid for a domain set up, WP also made my site ‘more compatible’ for the server and switched me over to a ‘plug in’ set up, vs the “Classic Blog” set up I have been running for the last 12+ years. THAT was why I was seeing ghosts flitting around this here back room and fighting with clanks and clunks,,,

I finally broke down and got ahold of the help-desk, and talked to a REAL PERSON (omg!) and they ‘took over’ on the Exorcism after we had talked about what was needed done. And they had to roll EVERYTHING back 6 days to do it.

Luckily, I didn’t lose a damned thing, except the last audio file, and I had that on back up here in the MAC so re-loading it was ‘easy peasy’. Fixed one widget that was wiped (no idea why since it was older than 6 days ) and I may yet find other issues that need fixed.

BUT!

Because I am back into the territory I KNOW, not that whackadoodle plug in crap,,,

I can breathe easier now.

More laters,,, Just wanted to give ya an update on what the crazy was about last night,,,

Backstage at the Workshop

I must admit, there is a certain amount of ‘discomfort’ for me, when it comes to this podcast thingie,,, I have never been one for the limelight: thats why I chose the support field of Audio Production over ‘bein’ on stage’.

How many times,,,,

Have you ran into issues, frustrated your efforts for a day, and then, come to find out, it was something YOU did to YOU???

NO!!! Just NO!

Getting a little irate, maybe even a little blackpilled.

Reading Robert Gores articles. Part one here. Part Two Here

To say I had already started making some connections between our troubles and the State of Israel, would be an understatement. To say I had seen some ‘intrigue and troubles’ coming from the groups behind Palantir, one group among many, Would also be an understatement.

NOW, seeing the dots getting connected,,,

Damn near wanna load the backpack, or load a kayak, and head out, not looking back. Drop from Society as a whole, become the ‘mountain man’ or “river runner” or what ever,,,, Go the homeless route and let this whole mess burn to the ground.

the urge is there, the actions towards it are not.

BUT Dammit, dammit dammit,,, There are just too many ‘players’ in this world that do not get “DON’T HURT PEOPLE AND DON’T TAKE THEIR STUFF”. And they want to RULE THE WORLD for all intents and purposes.

And from what Robert was illuminating, they aren’t far from it,,,

And it Won’t work they way they think it will. WE, the people of this Human Race, are NOT widgets you can stuff into a niche. We don’t work like that. The USSR found that out, and rotted away internally because ‘widgets’ don’t really exist,,,,

I’ve avoided this rail for some time, hints at most. BUT, there comes a point where you just can’t turn a blind eye, you MUST accept the evidence as proof, and the PROOFS are not kind to a certain tribe that has a history of shitting on ALL the rest of the world. One little country that is one-fourth the size of Maine, and its fuckin’ up the rest of the world because of delusions it’s carried forward from the past.

I’m gonna break my streak tonight, and I’m busting out a couple stiff drinks,,,,

I’m too angry to see straight, let alone to post coherently. May as well tie one one and complete the mess my mind is in. Maybe I can get some sleep afterwards, clear the head and start afresh tomorrow.

NO, it really isn’t ready for prime-time, but I’m frustrated with the day,,,, my own doing,,, tackling a ‘cast with NO script/mindmap,,, Did it to me-self, I did.

What follows is what ya get for all my efforts (and kitteh-klaw marks on my thigh: another reason I couldn’t keep my head in effort. Thanks Mama!)

This one was recorded straight to the Mac, using my new hardware, and all of it completed without need of changing ‘venue’; No bouncing between phone and computer. The transcript was done by MacWhisper and came out a lot better than the other transcription mode I was using. (and I am leaving it unedited at this stage, its damned close,,, though punctuation, run-ons,,, if you read and listen, it’ll make sense.). Getting my stuff lined up right, now, just gotta get my head on straight, with maps, directions, and GOALS for the point.

Enjoy (let me know if you like ‘the new sound’)
