Hahaha!!! I really needed that, Mary. I've been mired in a lot of contention lately (big surprise, eh?) both personal and on my stack. I posted a couple of comments on Doc Malik that linked my Hitler Journey, and it's attracted people who haven't been on that journey with me. I can't decide who's worse, those who hate me or those who love me because they think I'm with them in hating Jews.
One note from DEMedia is Propaganda writes, "Lot of Scum on Substack. Use their Follows and Followers to find them all and report." He's since called me a fool and a stage four syphilitic cunt. Another note said, "I am responding to ignorance (you obviously haven’t studied history in any depth) and complete BS! Please stop posting pedantic, ignorant NONSENSE. Thank you!"
One comment, that was merely on my parenting article and caret system was:
'I've read so many of your articles and could do nothing by SMH, wondering why I didn't unsubscribe. You're nuts and infected with a mind virus that aims to destroy and usher in a NWO.

I was working on a very complex article involving the Hyksos and Habiru, knowing that it's a minefield, and tiptoeing my way through it was giving me a headache. So I think I'm going to record something I wrote 19 yrs ago called 79 Habits of a Hopeful Oblate.
And I was just about to send you a note to see if you wanted to chat about our Apocaloptomist retreat. That sounds like a great diversion!
Call me or email a zoom link whenever you have time. I'm free more often than not. And I'm loving that blanket-hug on the warm sea. When you hear my hopeful oblate post, you'll realize we're thinking in tandem again, as you were in your response to Katie's awesome post. Mindreader indeed!
Tereza, thank you SO MUCH for sharing your brilliant thinking with us! Your diamond-like perspectives are yummies for my logic-loving creative spirit and soul. I just don't tell you often enough because my life is constantly tangenting way too far from the curve. Happy New Year, for what it's worth, depending on when it *actually* begins!
Oh it means so much to me to get those kind words from you, Sharine! "yummies for my logic-loving creative spirit and soul"--what a delicious description. I remember from your articles that you and I share that masculine/ feminine interplay of logic and spirit. It makes me happy every time I see your face show up as a 'like' and now I will project onto that your warm and heartfelt words.
I'm thinking we should take all the fresh starts of a new year we can--after every equinox and solstice. Are you on the summer solstice side of the planet? Happy New Fresh Start to you too! It promises to be a frisky year.
I adore the scent of tuberose. I was sad when my farmer's market stand ran out for the season. And then saw those fat juicy ones at my grocery store.
I don't know why, but I was thinking of you in your garden yesterday. That connection to nature runs through so many in our cult ;-) What better cult to be in?
fun memes for fun take off to enter the lunacy landing while entering another apocalyptic year.
and i'll consider who you are once i have time to find where i am in an accelerating space-time continuum warp of not knowing who i am r2d2.
oh! right. it turns out that the science lied about the truth of relativity and einsteinian physics is fundamentally incorrect, not just relatively incorrect. lol!
and for me, i've been a very late initiate into the moon-landing fraud! omg!
my sister laughed at me about that because the moon lunacy-landing is the first hazing of para-political inititation. now i know why: the ridiculously poor quality of the fraud is so obvious that once seen it is embarrassing to admit to not having seen it. and at the same time the poor quality of it being swallowed and digested hook line and stinker is testament to the power of delusion because, unless one is curious enough to see it, the depth of fraudulence is so vast that any and all evidence of the fraud will not be enough for the deluded to see it.
and for me that has become a great way to start the year, with the tuxedoed rabbit with a time-warped-piece suggesting that unlearning is the new learning. where is that rabbit holed up now? holy rabbit stew, anyone?
i'm writing up on how the big lie, like moon-landing, is classic narcissistic schismogenisis psychology — the lie that is believed creates in the believer the ability, perhaps even reactive compulsion, to disbelieve the experiential truths of being physically alive from day-to-day. thus, when other lies are presented by narcissistic behaviours, they are more readily believed than not. that's sort of the bone of my text intermingled with fascinating synchronicities and cross pollinated ideas. it has been creating in me some physical symptoms and serious aha moments as those stubborn untruths get flushed out my cellular memory.
so... a great start. now for bed. good night and a good 2025. happy new year. fascinating year done, and likely an even more fascinating one begun.
all the best with what has changed in 2024! and with everything that is to change in 2025! everything changes! with peace, respect, love and exuberant joy.
What was the purpose of the moon landing psyop, I wonder? Your theory makes sense to me. Every big lie that we swallow creates more cognitive dissonance, less willingness to believe our own lived experience and I would add logic, although I think you don't.
yes with a logical elaboration that in-corporates (em-bodies) the illogic that is the body of life: cognitive dissonance is the 'logical' consequence of the embodied schism between 'true' truth — the energetic experience of being alive as creatures in a dependent co-arising (quantum mechanical entangled uni-song (universe) — and narrated truth patched onto it especially as ethics and moral correctness. most cogni-zzati move in the opposite direction with arguments of mind/psyche as the source of traumatic split that makes itself manifest in the body. and the source of the fix with the idea that meaning, morals, ethics and/or 'good' dogmas — yoga, meditation, religious / spiritual experiences — are the solution — ie 'proper' mindfulness.
i am more clearly experiencing that it actually goes in the opposite direction: when we are lied to, consciously or not, it is that which creates the dissociation between the truth of our being physically here and our experience of being here. once that (narcissistic) split is big enough, we turn to narration as truth. since narration as truth is fundamentally untrue, we live, 'naturally', in a state of perpetual anxiety.
so... a logical extension that begins with the illogic of being physical and that it is our physical state that knows, illogically, what is absolutely true or not. wow, was that a tasty stew! oops. is that unchewable bit actually a button or a fob?
all the best with what has changed in 2024! and with everything that is to change in 2025! everything changes! with peace, respect, love and exuberant joy.
Answering Guy here to catch you, Kathleen. Your recommendation to 'hold identity lightly' in your piece seems to correlate with Guy on the death of the controlled-narrative identified self.
It is a kind of death. Well, actually it is the 'real' death, the death of the controlled narrative as the life or death identified self.
And it seems to me that it perhaps is even the reason why that the fully grokked fight to the death to be deaf and dumb. Narrative deaths are deaths of a controlled identity.
Thanks to you, Heather, for both the memes and the excellent insight on parenting.
I love thinking of you as a cat burglar of memes! Slipping through a window and getting yourself something r-e-e-a-a-l good, as one of Tonika's says ;-)
I've seen the 'be the entire problem' before but that surly cat makes it. And you're the voice of the Universe I want to hear--not sappy, just laying it on the line.
Thank you! I got the entire problem cat meme from Pasheen! Yes I steal from the best. But I didn't sign mine ever until recently and I'm pretty sure I've contributed many more than I've ever stolen. I love that one "I've tried shutting up, it's not for me." <--- not mine, but I love it. Not shutting up any time soon. 💕
What an abundantly thought-provoking, fun and expansive post, Tereza! And thanks for the inclusion of my latest. Funny how we both were on the same subject of cult/culture. Must be in the ethers.
Re Matrix as a psyop. Admittedly I never made the etymological connection with mother.
Though I'm thinking it's primarily a hijack of mother as in Mother Earth. The immediate and required context for a manifest life has to happen somewhere and in our case - here on planet earth.
Physical beings require a home and not as digits existing in a synthetic space. With that foundational context hijacked, womb-people would naturally be next.Anything and everything that denies the physical necessity of life, and the connections that flow from them are under attack.
Like I said - a thought-provoking post!! Thanks, T.
I'm often swimming in your ether and vice-versa Kathleen ;-) I loved your Rumble statement that I was always having fun in my videos. Yes!
Someone else pointed out to me that matrix comes from mother. Knowing the directors are transgender deepens my sense that they've taken a fundamental truth and twisted it. I have my only published essay--The Gnostic & the Atheist--based on a conversation with my husband, at the time, on whether the Matrix movie had it backwards. I'll read it into my stack sometime soon.
OMG, the contrast! Il Divo is truly divine. My YT then flipped over to Knights in White Satin sung in Italian by four handsome men with magnificent dramatic voices: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXUnl0-bjXo. Is Il Divo Carlos Marin who the comments say has died?
I used to like U2's lyrics and they're made for belting out, so always an exhilarating sing-along. I haven't listened lately now knowing Bono is a smug, globalist prick. But had I ever watched him, I think I would have cottoned on to that a lot sooner.
My apologies for being so tardy in acknowledging your very impressive knitting claim to fame at 6:30.
I did, in fact, quietly post an update on my post on 10 December to mark the completion of my first sleeve. (I can’t post images in comments here to my knowledge.)
I was hooked – bought every album up until they went ‘broadway’ and we caught one of their live concerts – an experience I will cherish.
Gotta give credit to Simon Cowell for coming up with the concept and assembling that perfect ensemble. Such a shame that Carlos had to depart so young.
And what a title: Unbreak my Heart. Best argument I've seen for learning Italian ... wait, Spanish ... wait, French ... wait, Latin? I thought that I recognized Simon, I've only seen him as a judge, never performing. The cinematography is very emotional in its storytelling.
Oh, I did not see Simon Cowell in any clips and have never heard of him performing – I was referring to him being the entrepreneurial brainchild behind the concept of Il Divo as an operatic popular group.
Only paid subscribers can comment on Dr Malik, so I can't share this anthology on Vera Sharav (which I see that you visited back then). Sadly, Karl Haemers has gone silent, presumed RIP
• Holocaust Survivor' Equates Covid Vax With Zyklon B - Karl Haemers
I have added to Frances' Note. Sensational discussion over there - I will peruse and familiarise before adding my two bob's worth re Vera Sharav. (Her 'survivor' story just doesn't add up.)
(Edited - I amended 'overt here' to 'over there' - you must be able to make something of those tealeaves! :-) )
oh I'm glad you got that, Neshma. I think it should be a forum--matrix meets patrix.
And yes, I can't stop laughing about those cycle paths. I told it to my dance buddies while we were doing push-ups, or some other torture, this morning.
Happy new year to you, Neshma. I hope that all the weirdness settles and your path stretches out before you, glittering and beckoning.
Oh excellent article, Philip. This must have come out while my junk mail folder was claiming you for its own. ;-)
It's a very big question you're asking. Does reality exist apart from our perception of it, or is our perceived reality all there is? For me, my decisions wouldn't change depending on that answer. But what would change is the fear and guilt. I would be creating everything that happens to me. And I'd be responsible for creating what happens to others.
I find that terrifying but, more importantly, it doesn't match my lived experience. I find that things I could never have controlled or even know about keep interacting in my life in mysterious ways. And always in a way that brings meaning that I don't create, only discover.
I love the idea that we're living in a simulation, and even a simulation of our own collective making. But I think there's a designer, a scriptwriter to that game, that's leading us inevitably to want to end the game--not out of fear, but because we know it's a game and have made it so everybody wins. Now we're ready to get back to Reality.
Just my three cents, as Tonika says, with inflation ;-)
On the point of creating everything that happens to you - correct. You also create a "version" of other people, and yes, what happens to them. But they are in no way bound to your version of them that they will claim as theirs to actualize.
Everything happens - which version are we going to actualize for ourselves?
That is the only question that remains.
As Essence, we CANNOT affect someone else without their agreement. Remember, they are Essence also.
So the reality we actualize and experience is ours and only ours. But we share this vast tapestry with everyone else as well.
EVERYONE creates their own version of reality which we then share, but they can be vastly different.
It's a lot fluffier than we can even imagine at this point.
Christopher Cook shared a similar sentiment this morning around the idea of free will that plays right into this idea of multiple realities and how everything is ours to choose.
Hmmm... so we each actualize and experience our own reality. Reality doesn't exist outside of our own version. If I live in Palestine, am I creating my own version of reality? Am I agreeing to accept the version I experience? Am I responsible for whatever happens because I've chosen what to actualize?
If we each create our own reality, then each of us is our own God. God/ Reality doesn't exist outside of our own perception. No one's perception of reality is any better than anyone else's because there is no shared reality--if your reality is good, it's because you made it that way. If your reality sucks, it's because that's what you chose.
To me, if this is a simulation then it's not reality. Reality exists outside the simulation. My role within the simulation can be more or less effective based on how well my perception matches up with Reality. Understanding Reality, by undoing assumptions and testing my experience, is key.
I'm logically extending your points, Philip, so you can tell me why this doesn't logically follow from what you're saying, if you don't think it does. And I think it's the most important question we can be asking, which is why I'm not just letting it go. If I'm creating my reality, then I'm on my own and fully responsible for whatever happens to me.
I know that tone of voice is tricky in a text, but none of this is meant to be read in a sharp tone of voice. More musing, philosophical, definitely not a critique of you. Just exploring the question.
Tereza, I appreciate your questions, and the opportunity to respond to them.
"Reality doesn't exist outside of our own version. If I live in Palestine, am I creating my own version of reality? Am I agreeing to accept the version I experience? Am I responsible for whatever happens because I've chosen what to actualize?"
Responsible is a tricky word. Responsible to who? Your "experience" of your reality is due to your choices, and yes, you create it through your perception.
We are Essence first, before we experience these focuses of attention we call lives. Our Essence incorporates themes of exploration in which we "experience" many focuses of different types, hundreds, if not thousands of focuses of different circumstances to round-out our Essence exploration. Each focus is purposeful, none are wasted.
If we were to incorporate a top-down viewpoint of ourselves, we would see that our focuses emanate from our Essence, and Essence emanates from the next tier up in the food-chain, call it God if you like. Consciousness explores all things, good, bad and ugly. This is why we incorporate what we interpret as good and evil. In order for Consciousness, or God, to know itself, it must experience itself as everything.
Calling it a simulation is somewhat misleading. Our experience is real and true to us at the focus level. But we have it somewhat backwards. We think that our lives are us, which they are, but we think that this is our main gig, and everything else is outside of us.
In truth, our main gig is the subjective portion of ourselves which explores various themes, and then creates objective imagery in which to have the physical experience of the themes we are exploring.
I offer a more detailed "timeline" of our development in an imagined interview format with my own Essence in which they lay out the whole thing from end to end here:
Thanks for the story format, Philip. It does help me identify where our thinking diverges. And I'm happy to note that our theories are springing from the same root! That's a rare thing, in my experience. And it makes the place where we explore different branches more interesting, for me and I hope for you. If I was a mere echo of what you already knew in your Philip-reality, there would be no growing point. This leaves us with a nuanced and advanced argument, which I define as a productive disagreement.
So our common root is "The Universal Creating One And Whole" and also TUCOW imbuing the OW with the C--the ability to create. I'm putting this origin story, with Mary's encouragement and Amy's artwork, into a children's book called Dragon Dreaming. I'll be posting it in chapters.
If the TUCOW wants delight and surprise by having that separation between itself and its creativity--as I agree it did--why does it need anyone else with the ability to create? As another parent once told me, you have the second child because you're so afraid that something will happen to the first, and then you find you have twice as much to worry about, because neither is replaceable. So if there is no death, no loss with Essence, why not stop there and enjoy the manifestations?
The Course says that Reality does stop there. But Essence gets the crazy idea that it can create without the TUCOW, which mires it in guilt. And then the Essence has this terrible nightmare in which it fragments into billions of characters on which it projects that evil it thinks it's created, but really none of that has happened. It's all a dream. There is no time and space. Only the Now and the Here. In Reality.
It's interesting that you mention Seth, which is how that Egyptian fratricidal sociopathic proto-Yahweh god is pronounced ... the one who spawns MAGA. In Genesis, Seth is who inherits the right to rule the world after the guilt of fratricide is projected onto Cain.
I'm planning to write about the gnostic Seth. Like the Bible and Greek mythology, it blames all the ills of the world on the woman: Sophia, Eve(il), Pandora. Sophia gets the idea she can create without the permission of the TUCOW, to use your words. Now our buddy Seth does that and everything's fine. He gives birth without a woman involved and it's all perfect. But for a woman to create without a man, that's bound to go wrong, eh?
So she makes the demiurge and the demiurge makes all that's bad in the world. Good vs. evil, that Jesus you refer to as an MSE vs Satan: utter misogynistic bullshit, imo. Not you, of course, but the Seth story.
And what does it matter? If it's a dream and minds are still joined, all you have to do is figure out it's a dream and we all wake up. Under your scenario, there's maybe nuclear annihilation unless enough people wake up on their own. There's death, pain, loss, torture, because the TUCOW wants these experiences. As a parent, I would never create these experiences for my daughters. I would want them immortal and always with me. Wouldn't you?
It is difficult to present the story without significant distortion due to the differences in our experience and our reality, and non-physical realms or planes of consciousness.
And there is a great tendency to assign human qualities and properties - to personify other types of entities that do not share the same qualities of experience that we do.
So that's the trick in discussions before they quickly dissolve into metaphysical melodrama, which we may believe, but these are not accurate depictions. In other words, you cannot describe something or someone physically that has no such translatable properties without introducing a lot of inaccuracy.
This is always my issue with writing about the subject and then discussing it. It's tricky business that can quickly go off the rails!
Your artwork in process sounds like a great deal of fun, and should be very successful and useful to bring difficult topics to children and adults alike!
During this time of the Shift, the Remembrance, more and more is going to be becoming clear to us as we become more self-aware - the end result or goal is to be expressing Essence in this physical reality. Remembering the totality of what we are after the veils are lifted.
Our "human focus" experience has pretty much run its course, and we have chosen collectively to move in this direction of added features to our physical blueprint which will be something never before experienced in our world or existence.
Everything that we knew is going to change emphatically in the next 25 years. You will get your wish of dismantling the empire, as will I. It may happen a bit differently than what we think, but happen it will.
Love the witty wordplay as always (and the memes, it goes without saying). Feels like things have already fundamentally changed since we ticked over arbitrarily into the new year, barely 48 hours in, so one wonders where we head from here. How exciting!
Thank you so much, witty wordstar. Astro-apocaloptimist indeed.
When I was thinking of this as a year of collaboration, designing our vritual Apocaloptomist community has been top of mind. And then it dawned on me, like Apollo (and not the Moonchild pretender) crashing down on my head--we have a certified urban planner with a high-falutin' degree in our midst! Is that right? Do I have your field correct?
So suddenly, the sky's the limit to my imaginings of how I'd lay out a neighborhood for optimal conviviality. The stars are within reach of how to combine urban space with a pie crust of agrarian land. Are you game to play with us, now that you've been emu-grounded? Touched by an emu has a much better ring than touched by an angel, methinks, if a bit more jarring.
Goodness me, I’d almost forgotten I was an urban planner in a previous life! Well, theoretically anyway: never really put the phd into practice, but always up for a new challenge. The Garden City movement at the start of the 1900s was the bench mark, before industrialism and then suburbanism fully took over. There are a few remnant examples in the uk still that give a bit of inspiration, Welwyn and Letchworth were two of the first.
Ooooh, me too! This is hard to describe without sketching it out, but one of the things I'd like to see is back-to-back neighborhoods joined by a double property facing both sides. That can be used for a daycare, cafe, pop-up restaurant, library, tool shed, bank, garden plots, etc. It can also be the terminus of intraneighborhood street on either side, that aren't through to any major roads. My neighborhood has that here and it makes it quiet enough to walk in the middle of the street or play games or roller skate.
My caret system uses 20% of the dividends for community projects. So if the total distribution is ^500/ mo., ^100 /mo. would go for joint projects. Perhaps ^40/mo. for neighborhood projects, ^30/mo. at the hamlet level (1000's of people), ^20/mo. at the village (10s of 1000's) and ^10/mo. at the commonwealth (100s of 1000's).
Running the math, that would be multiples of a monthly budget of ^4000 per neighborhood, ^30,000 per hamlet, ^200,000 per village and ^1M per commonwealth. This can't be used for wages, only property and equipment. And of course, a mortgage would create its own dividends to be redistributed.
I'd also match whatever people contributed from their own pockets, which could be used for wages. So there are a lot of possibilities--health care clinics, meeting halls, collective farms, learning centers, manufacturing warehouses.
I think the key is making these carets not useable at an individual level. That makes it essentially a vote for what you want to build. It gives ownership and choice, rather than a gov't decision they then fund with an increase in property taxes. Excited to be sharing ideas!
wow its a treasure around here! can i steal some of these meme? they so great i love the simplest one. i spread missing information LOL i'm here after taking your link on dean substack. i left ya a crispy story there ;)
I finish part two, he claim pat robertson the pastor was linked to the story with pedophilia and soon they would prove it. How usefull this got posted in 2022 and the pat robertson died in 2023…. Thats fitting huh. Im off for tonight but tommorow ill be attacking part 3 ✌️😇👍
Look at the Aussies slaying it! And the fellow Memesters (like Teamsters, but with an M, get it?, oh Queen of Word Play!) - honestly I’m honored to be included. Are we memed out yet?
Happy arbitrary New Year, dear! Wasn’t the New Year supposed to start in April anyway? Which is why Aries in the first (youngest) of the zodiac signs? Paging Isaac! But seriously, the Romans changed it, right? October was the 8th month (oct), November the 9th month (nov), ‘deca’ for December… etc. and those who refused to change their calendar as per the Romans and still celebrated on April 1st were called fools, hence April Fools!
WeMoon!! A unicorn friend gifted me one of those in past years, thinking I might like to submit a poem to it. Turns out the application process takes multiple years, and there's not even a micro-caret of remuneration. I decided to pass. I did love the moon info, however...🌕
Some classic memes. Thank you.
I feel like we live in the mecca of memetowns. Is every pocket of Substack as cool as ours? I seriously doubt it.
"We are DEFINITELY the coolest," she says, nudging her hornrims back to the bridge of her nose, "or my name's not Poindexter." 🤓
Hahaha!!! I really needed that, Mary. I've been mired in a lot of contention lately (big surprise, eh?) both personal and on my stack. I posted a couple of comments on Doc Malik that linked my Hitler Journey, and it's attracted people who haven't been on that journey with me. I can't decide who's worse, those who hate me or those who love me because they think I'm with them in hating Jews.
One note from DEMedia is Propaganda writes, "Lot of Scum on Substack. Use their Follows and Followers to find them all and report." He's since called me a fool and a stage four syphilitic cunt. Another note said, "I am responding to ignorance (you obviously haven’t studied history in any depth) and complete BS! Please stop posting pedantic, ignorant NONSENSE. Thank you!"

Sheesh. I'm proud of you, T. I'm fairly certain I'd be under my kitchen table in the fetal position after receiving those missiles.
I'm imagining you wrapped in a big fleecy blanket-hug, rocking gently on a warm sea. Let it all go and do the Hopeful Oblate thing.
And yes, let's chat about the retreat, you mindreader. I could use a nice diversion myself. My back is not happy!!😬
Call me or email a zoom link whenever you have time. I'm free more often than not. And I'm loving that blanket-hug on the warm sea. When you hear my hopeful oblate post, you'll realize we're thinking in tandem again, as you were in your response to Katie's awesome post. Mindreader indeed!
And I'm so sorry about your back. Aaargh!
Will do! Xox
Tereza, thank you SO MUCH for sharing your brilliant thinking with us! Your diamond-like perspectives are yummies for my logic-loving creative spirit and soul.

I adore the scent of tuberose. I was sad when my farmer's market stand ran out for the season. And then saw those fat juicy ones at my grocery store.

Haha! R2D2!
What was the purpose of the moon landing psyop, I wonder? Your theory makes sense to me. Every big lie that we swallow creates more cognitive dissonance, less willingness to believe our own lived experience and I would add logic, although I think you don't.
Holy rabbit stew! Hahaha!
hola tereza.
yes with a logical elaboration that in-corporates (em-bodies) the illogic that is the body of life: cognitive dissonance is the 'logical' consequence of the embodied schism between 'true' truth — the energetic experience of being alive as creatures in a dependent co-arising (quantum mechanical entangled uni-song (universe) — and narrated truth patched onto it especially as ethics and moral correctness. most cogni-zzati move in the opposite direction with arguments of mind/psyche as the source of traumatic split that makes itself manifest in the body. and the source of the fix with the idea that meaning, morals, ethics and/or 'good' dogmas — yoga, meditation, religious / spiritual experiences — are the solution — ie 'proper' mindfulness.
i am more clearly experiencing that it actually goes in the opposite direction: when we are lied to, consciously or not, it is that which creates the dissociation between the truth of our being physically here and our experience of being here. once that (narcissistic) split is big enough, we turn to narration as truth. since narration as truth is fundamentally untrue, we live, 'naturally', in a state of perpetual anxiety.
so... a logical extension that begins with the illogic of being physical and that it is our physical state that knows, illogically, what is absolutely true or not. wow, was that a tasty stew! oops. is that unchewable bit actually a button or a fob?
all the best with what has changed in 2024! and with everything that is to change in 2025! everything changes! with peace, respect, love and exuberant joy.

"...suggesting that unlearning is the new learning."
That seems to be it in a nutshell, guy. Well said. And can't help but wonder what does that mean to the inner life of the person who groks that?
Interesting times to be sure.
Best to you.
Answering Guy here to catch you, Kathleen. Your recommendation to 'hold identity lightly' in your piece seems to correlate with Guy on the death of the controlled-narrative identified self.
Yes I think we mainly agree here.
Hola, Kathleen.
It is a kind of death. Well, actually it is the 'real' death, the death of the controlled narrative as the life or death identified self.
And it seems to me that it perhaps is even the reason why that the fully grokked fight to the death to be deaf and dumb. Narrative deaths are deaths of a controlled identity.
All the best!
Yes.
Many will be dying over and over. "Okay, THIS wasn't true, (I'll die to that bit) but THAT still is..."
On the upside after a few deaths it's not such a big deal. :-)
yes, exactly.
i've had so many deaths of self in the last ten years, significantly accelerated in the last 5, that now death is breath. fascinating stuff!
Thanks for including mine in your year end memefest! Happy New Year! ❤️💕🎉🍷🍾🎂🍸🌟💕
Thanks to you, Heather, for both the memes and the excellent insight on parenting.
I love thinking of you as a cat burglar of memes! Slipping through a window and getting yourself something r-e-e-a-a-l good, as one of Tonika's says ;-)
I've seen the 'be the entire problem' before but that surly cat makes it. And you're the voice of the Universe I want to hear--not sappy, just laying it on the line.
Thank you! I got the entire problem cat meme from Pasheen! Yes I steal from the best. But I didn't sign mine ever until recently and I'm pretty sure I've contributed many more than I've ever stolen. I love that one "I've tried shutting up, it's not for me." <--- not mine, but I love it. Not shutting up any time soon. 💕
What an abundantly thought-provoking, fun and expansive post, Tereza! And thanks for the inclusion of my latest. Funny how we both were on the same subject of cult/culture. Must be in the ethers.
Re Matrix as a psyop. Admittedly I never made the etymological connection with mother.
Though I'm thinking it's primarily a hijack of mother as in Mother Earth. The immediate and required context for a manifest life has to happen somewhere and in our case - here on planet earth.
Physical beings require a home and not as digits existing in a synthetic space. With that foundational context hijacked, womb-people would naturally be next.Anything and everything that denies the physical necessity of life, and the connections that flow from them are under attack.
Like I said - a thought-provoking post!! Thanks, T.
I'm often swimming in your ether and vice-versa Kathleen ;-) I loved your Rumble statement that I was always having fun in my videos. Yes!
Someone else pointed out to me that matrix comes from mother. Knowing the directors are transgender deepens my sense that they've taken a fundamental truth and twisted it. I have my only published essay--The Gnostic & the Atheist--based on a conversation with my husband, at the time, on whether the Matrix movie had it backwards. I'll read it into my stack sometime soon.
Yes the bros both transitioning was a double-red flag.
I'll look forward to it.
Bono - Unhinged Melody

and if you thought that would never end, here is some healing with Il Divo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5EiBOhSnas
OMG, the contrast! Il Divo is truly divine. My YT then flipped over to Knights in White Satin sung in Italian by four handsome men with magnificent dramatic voices: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXUnl0-bjXo. Is Il Divo Carlos Marin who the comments say has died?
I used to like U2's lyrics and they're made for belting out, so always an exhilarating sing-along. I haven't listened lately now knowing Bono is a smug, globalist prick. But had I ever watched him, I think I would have cottoned on to that a lot sooner.
Just a reminder that it's now your turn to show me yours. Knitting projects, o'course.
My apologies for being so tardy in acknowledging your very impressive knitting claim to fame at 6:30.
I did, in fact, quietly post an update on my post on 10 December to mark the completion of my first sleeve. (I can’t post images in comments here to my knowledge.)
https://juliusskoolafish.substack.com/p/cleckheaton-mens-jumper
and say Hi to Lottie while you are there; she was of great assistance.
The second sleeve is just days away.
I still remember first encountering Il Divo through the promo for Regresa a Mí
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJNzmNB48no
I was hooked – bought every album up until they went ‘broadway’ and we caught one of their live concerts – an experience I will cherish.
Gotta give credit to Simon Cowell for coming up with the concept and assembling that perfect ensemble. Such a shame that Carlos had to depart so young.
• IL DIVO - Adagio (Live Video)

And what a title: Unbreak my Heart. Best argument I've seen for learning Italian ... wait, Spanish ... wait, French ... wait, Latin? I thought that I recognized Simon, I've only seen him as a judge, never performing. The cinematography is very emotional in its storytelling.
Oh, I did not see Simon Cowell in any clips and have never heard of him performing – I was referring to him being the entrepreneurial brainchild behind the concept of Il Divo as an operatic popular group.
Ah, I thought one of the men was a younger version of him.
BTW, you'll like this note that Frances posted: https://substack.com/profile/1964227-frances-leader/note/c-84511385.

I have added to Frances' Note. Sensational discussion over there - I will peruse and familiarise before adding my two bob's worth re Vera Sharav. (Her 'survivor' story just doesn't add up.)
(Edited - I amended 'overt here' to 'over there' - you must be able to make something of those tealeaves! :-) )
"the matrix and the patrix, the web of mothers and the net of fathers..." love that.
And cycle paths, ell oh ell!
Happy new year, my dear Tereza! <3
N, xo
oh I'm glad you got that, Neshma. I think it should be a forum--matrix meets patrix.
And yes, I can't stop laughing about those cycle paths. I told it to my dance buddies while we were doing push-ups, or some other torture, this morning.
Happy new year to you, Neshma. I hope that all the weirdness settles and your path stretches out before you, glittering and beckoning.
Regarding the "alternate realities" meme, I wrote about that exact circumstance here: https://philipmollica.substack.com/p/the-rpg-enigma
Oh excellent article, Philip. This must have come out while my junk mail folder was claiming you for its own. ;-)
It's a very big question you're asking. Does reality exist apart from our perception of it, or is our perceived reality all there is? For me, my decisions wouldn't change depending on that answer. But what would change is the fear and guilt. I would be creating everything that happens to me. And I'd be responsible for creating what happens to others.
I find that terrifying but, more importantly, it doesn't match my lived experience. I find that things I could never have controlled or even know about keep interacting in my life in mysterious ways. And always in a way that brings meaning that I don't create, only discover.
I love the idea that we're living in a simulation, and even a simulation of our own collective making. But I think there's a designer, a scriptwriter to that game, that's leading us inevitably to want to end the game--not out of fear, but because we know it's a game and have made it so everybody wins. Now we're ready to get back to Reality.
Just my three cents, as Tonika says, with inflation ;-)
On the point of creating everything that happens to you - correct. You also create a "version" of other people, and yes, what happens to them. But they are in no way bound to your version of them that they will claim as theirs to actualize.
Everything happens - which version are we going to actualize for ourselves?
That is the only question that remains.
As Essence, we CANNOT affect someone else without their agreement. Remember, they are Essence also.
So the reality we actualize and experience is ours and only ours. But we share this vast tapestry with everyone else as well.
EVERYONE creates their own version of reality which we then share, but they can be vastly different.
It's a lot fluffier than we can even imagine at this point.
Christopher Cook shared a similar sentiment this morning around the idea of free will that plays right into this idea of multiple realities and how everything is ours to choose.
https://substack.com/@christophercook/note/c-84240050
Hmmm... so we each actualize and experience our own reality. Reality doesn't exist outside of our own version. If I live in Palestine, am I creating my own version of reality? Am I agreeing to accept the version I experience? Am I responsible for whatever happens because I've chosen what to actualize?
If we each create our own reality, then each of us is our own God. God/ Reality doesn't exist outside of our own perception. No one's perception of reality is any better than anyone else's because there is no shared reality--if your reality is good, it's because you made it that way. If your reality sucks, it's because that's what you chose.
To me, if this is a simulation then it's not reality. Reality exists outside the simulation. My role within the simulation can be more or less effective based on how well my perception matches up with Reality. Understanding Reality, by undoing assumptions and testing my experience, is key.
I'm logically extending your points, Philip, so you can tell me why this doesn't logically follow from what you're saying, if you don't think it does. And I think it's the most important question we can be asking, which is why I'm not just letting it go. If I'm creating my reality, then I'm on my own and fully responsible for whatever happens to me.
I know that tone of voice is tricky in a text, but none of this is meant to be read in a sharp tone of voice. More musing, philosophical, definitely not a critique of you. Just exploring the question.
Tereza, I appreciate your questions, and the opportunity to respond to them.
"Reality doesn't exist outside of our own version. If I live in Palestine, am I creating my own version of reality? Am I agreeing to accept the version I experience? Am I responsible for whatever happens because I've chosen what to actualize?"
Responsible is a tricky word. Responsible to who? Your "experience" of your reality is due to your choices, and yes, you create it through your perception.
We are Essence first, before we experience these focuses of attention we call lives. Our Essence incorporates themes of exploration in which we "experience" many focuses of different types, hundreds, if not thousands of focuses of different circumstances to round-out our Essence exploration. Each focus is purposeful, none are wasted.
If we were to incorporate a top-down viewpoint of ourselves, we would see that our focuses emanate from our Essence, and Essence emanates from the next tier up in the food-chain, call it God if you like. Consciousness explores all things, good, bad and ugly. This is why we incorporate what we interpret as good and evil. In order for Consciousness, or God, to know itself, it must experience itself as everything.
Calling it a simulation is somewhat misleading. Our experience is real and true to us at the focus level. But we have it somewhat backwards. We think that our lives are us, which they are, but we think that this is our main gig, and everything else is outside of us.
In truth, our main gig is the subjective portion of ourselves which explores various themes, and then creates objective imagery in which to have the physical experience of the themes we are exploring.
I offer a more detailed "timeline" of our development in an imagined interview format with my own Essence in which they lay out the whole thing from end to end here:
https://philipmollica.substack.com/p/deconstructing-physical-reality
Rather than discusses bits and pieces, it all comes together in that column, and hopefully makes more sense. I think you'll like this story format.
Thanks for the story format, Philip. It does help me identify where our thinking diverges. And I'm happy to note that our theories are springing from the same root! That's a rare thing, in my experience. And it makes the place where we explore different branches more interesting, for me and I hope for you. If I was a mere echo of what you already knew in your Philip-reality, there would be no growing point. This leaves us with a nuanced and advanced argument, which I define as a productive disagreement.
So our common root is "The Universal Creating One And Whole" and also TUCOW imbuing the OW with the C--the ability to create. I'm putting this origin story, with Mary's encouragement and Amy's artwork, into a children's book called Dragon Dreaming. I'll be posting it in chapters.
If the TUCOW wants delight and surprise by having that separation between itself and its creativity--as I agree it did--why does it need anyone else with the ability to create? As another parent once told me, you have the second child because you're so afraid that something will happen to the first, and then you find you have twice as much to worry about, because neither is replaceable. So if there is no death, no loss with Essence, why not stop there and enjoy the manifestations?
The Course says that Reality does stop there. But Essence gets the crazy idea that it can create without the TUCOW, which mires it in guilt. And then the Essence has this terrible nightmare in which it fragments into billions of characters on which it projects that evil it thinks it's created, but really none of that has happened. It's all a dream. There is no time and space. Only the Now and the Here. In Reality.
It's interesting that you mention Seth, which is how that Egyptian fratricidal sociopathic proto-Yahweh god is pronounced ... the one who spawns MAGA. In Genesis, Seth is who inherits the right to rule the world after the guilt of fratricide is projected onto Cain.
I'm planning to write about the gnostic Seth. Like the Bible and Greek mythology, it blames all the ills of the world on the woman: Sophia, Eve(il), Pandora. Sophia gets the idea she can create without the permission of the TUCOW, to use your words. Now our buddy Seth does that and everything's fine. He gives birth without a woman involved and it's all perfect. But for a woman to create without a man, that's bound to go wrong, eh?
So she makes the demiurge and the demiurge makes all that's bad in the world. Good vs. evil, that Jesus you refer to as an MSE vs Satan: utter misogynistic bullshit, imo. Not you, of course, but the Seth story.
And what does it matter? If it's a dream and minds are still joined, all you have to do is figure out it's a dream and we all wake up. Under your scenario, there's maybe nuclear annihilation unless enough people wake up on their own. There's death, pain, loss, torture, because the TUCOW wants these experiences. As a parent, I would never create these experiences for my daughters. I would want them immortal and always with me. Wouldn't you?
It is difficult to present the story without significant distortion due to the differences in our experience and our reality, and non-physical realms or planes of consciousness.
And there is a great tendency to assign human qualities and properties - to personify other types of entities that do not share the same qualities of experience that we do.
So that's the trick in discussions before they quickly dissolve into metaphysical melodrama, which we may believe, but these are not accurate depictions. In other words, you cannot describe something or someone physically that has no such translatable properties without introducing a lot of inaccuracy.
This is always my issue with writing about the subject and then discussing it. It's tricky business that can quickly go off the rails!
Your artwork in process sounds like a great deal of fun, and should be very successful and useful to bring difficult topics to children and adults alike!
During this time of the Shift, the Remembrance, more and more is going to be becoming clear to us as we become more self-aware - the end result or goal is to be expressing Essence in this physical reality. Remembering the totality of what we are after the veils are lifted.
Our "human focus" experience has pretty much run its course, and we have chosen collectively to move in this direction of added features to our physical blueprint which will be something never before experienced in our world or existence.
Everything that we knew is going to change emphatically in the next 25 years. You will get your wish of dismantling the empire, as will I. It may happen a bit differently than what we think, but happen it will.
Cheers!
Love the witty wordplay as always (and the memes, it goes without saying). Feels like things have already fundamentally changed since we ticked over arbitrarily into the new year, barely 48 hours in, so one wonders where we head from here. How exciting!
Thank you so much, witty wordstar. Astro-apocaloptimist indeed.
When I was thinking of this as a year of collaboration, designing our vritual Apocaloptomist community has been top of mind. And then it dawned on me, like Apollo (and not the Moonchild pretender) crashing down on my head--we have a certified urban planner with a high-falutin' degree in our midst! Is that right? Do I have your field correct?
So suddenly, the sky's the limit to my imaginings of how I'd lay out a neighborhood for optimal conviviality. The stars are within reach of how to combine urban space with a pie crust of agrarian land. Are you game to play with us, now that you've been emu-grounded? Touched by an emu has a much better ring than touched by an angel, methinks, if a bit more jarring.
Goodness me, I’d almost forgotten I was an urban planner in a previous life! Well, theoretically anyway: never really put the phd into practice, but always up for a new challenge. The Garden City movement at the start of the 1900s was the bench mark, before industrialism and then suburbanism fully took over. There are a few remnant examples in the uk still that give a bit of inspiration, Welwyn and Letchworth were two of the first.
But yes, in short, I have lots of ideas!
Ooooh, me too! This is hard to describe without sketching it out, but one of the things I'd like to see is back-to-back neighborhoods joined by a double property facing both sides. That can be used for a daycare, cafe, pop-up restaurant, library, tool shed, bank, garden plots, etc. It can also be the terminus of intraneighborhood street on either side, that aren't through to any major roads. My neighborhood has that here and it makes it quiet enough to walk in the middle of the street or play games or roller skate.
My caret system uses 20% of the dividends for community projects. So if the total distribution is ^500/ mo., ^100 /mo. would go for joint projects. Perhaps ^40/mo. for neighborhood projects, ^30/mo. at the hamlet level (1000's of people), ^20/mo. at the village (10s of 1000's) and ^10/mo. at the commonwealth (100s of 1000's).
Running the math, that would be multiples of a monthly budget of ^4000 per neighborhood, ^30,000 per hamlet, ^200,000 per village and ^1M per commonwealth. This can't be used for wages, only property and equipment. And of course, a mortgage would create its own dividends to be redistributed.
I'd also match whatever people contributed from their own pockets, which could be used for wages. So there are a lot of possibilities--health care clinics, meeting halls, collective farms, learning centers, manufacturing warehouses.
I think the key is making these carets not useable at an individual level. That makes it essentially a vote for what you want to build. It gives ownership and choice, rather than a gov't decision they then fund with an increase in property taxes. Excited to be sharing ideas!
Thank for your inspiring words,Tereza.
A shape-shifting year ?
That's a novel way to look at it for sure.
It's definitely going to be a year that requires us to continually redefine who we are.

Happy arbitrary New Year, dear! Wasn’t the New Year supposed to start in April anyway? Which is why Aries in the first (youngest) of the zodiac signs? Paging Isaac! But seriously, the Romans changed it, right? October was the 8th month (oct), November the 9th month (nov), ‘deca’ for December… etc. and those who refused to change their calendar as per the Romans and still celebrated on April 1st were called fools, hence April Fools!
Oooh love that trivia! If you read my reply to Mary, you'll see that fool is the least of what I've been called lately ;-)
