Connecting the Dots of Chaos, Confusion, and Authoritarianism

Rachel is a master of connecting the dots and painting the bigger picture so you can’t MISS SEEING WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON. In last night’s show, she paints a picture so clearly of how Trump is decapitating government, you can’t miss it. Trump’s biggest Loser Cabinet will be the biggest, baddest cabinet ever!

Putting LOSERS in Charge

To be selected by Trump to head a government agency or department, you just have to be a LOSER! Once appointed, these LOSERS are executing these government systems Trump put them in control of, and I mean kill them.

Watch NOW here

Killing Federal Agencies that Protect Us

Rachel also tells us why we should be VERY concerned about Federal Agencies such as the CFPB being ILLEGALLY shut down. Have you ever been scammed? Well… watch out because now the agency that has worked to get your money back from scammers is gone! Elizabeth Warren tells Rachel in the past 13 years 21 billion dollars has been recovered by this tiny, insignificant agency and put back in USA citizens pockets.  But Elon has a plan!!! Turn ex-Twitter into PayPal… do you remember? That’s how Evilon got his toe into making money. And now he can scam the H*** out of anyone stupid enough to use his sketchy system with NO Regulation!

The Three Buckets of Chaos, Doom, and Authoritarianism

The Three Buckets of Chaos Rachel breaks down are CRITICAL. Study them and learn to recognize what wacky thing the Trump-Elon monster has done to day fits under and it is #3 that we must push back on relentlessly and not ignore!!!

The TruMuck Monster

Number 1: Bad Outcomes such as planes crashing or farmers getting screwed by TruMusk – or TruMuck because they turned off Biden’s Inflation Reduction funding.

And He Did Resign — Right Before the Biggest Air Disaster in 25 Years!!!
Even FOX has to report on it!!
Only 500 feet of separation between passenger plane (above) and military plane (below) occurred on Friday — March 28, 2025

Number 2: Double-dealing such as Elon’s Tesla chargers get a big head start and huge advantage over his competitors as Trump administration pauses a federal clean energy program to expand the country’s network of electric vehicle charging stations.

Yep… It’s going right into you and your DOGE bro’s pockets!!!
Damn Right Elon’s Running USA RIGHT NOW!!! IT is the brain of all modern systems… if you highjack the brain, you run the system

Elon is Not that much different than the Toxoplasma gondii virus

The parasite Toxoplasma gondii hijacks the brains of mice and other rodents, causing them to lose their fear of cats.This makes them more likely to be eaten by cats, which can then spread the parasite to other animals. 
How does Toxoplasma affect the brain?
  • It may secrete molecules that rewire the brain 
  • It may cause brain cysts that interfere with dopamine production 
  • It may trigger inflammation in the brain, which changes brain function and behavior 
  • It blocks the rodents’ natural aversion to cat urine, instead attracting them to the pheromone 
How long does the effect last?
The effect of Toxoplasma can last for months, even after the parasite is no longer detectable. 
How can you avoid infection?
To avoid infection, you can: 
  • Maintain good hygiene for you and your pets
  • Wear gloves and a mask when gardening
  • Keep sandboxes closed when not in use
  • Clean fruits and vegetables
  • Thoroughly cook meats
  • Wash hands regularly

Hmmmm, now we need a list of how to avoid infection of the Elon Musk Toxoplasma gondii virus

This is what it looks like inside of Elon’s Mind

Back to The Three Buckets of Chaos, Doom, and Authoritarianism

Number 3: Authoritarian Breakthrough such as TruMuck ignoring Court Orders to turn funding to HeadStart and Community Health Centers back on guess what? It.. the TruMuck monster, hasn’t turned the money back on. Nor have they reopened USAID, which a Federal Judge has also ordered halted.

Another sign of authoritarian breakthrough is pardoning criminals such as Rod Blagojevich, January 6ers, Jared’s dad. All of these people are now beholden to TruMuck to do his bidding. TruMuck is still deciding how to use Rod. But January 6ers, they are now TruMuck’s personal band of Terror Police.

This sort of play is not so far back in our collective human history! Are we stupid?! Let’s look back at Russian Czar Alexander III regarded by historians as the last real autocrat in Russia. His secret police force was called the Okhrana. They were tasked with terrorizing or killing any opponents of Alexander III. One of the things they did was kill dogs and tie their heads on the saddles of their horses so that they appeared like demons, which of course they were. [Sources: Wiki-Oprichnik, Study Guide ]

History of Russia & Ivan the Terrible
Bad Outcomes Again… this is Stupid Ivan killing his own son because he couldn’t control his thirst for Power any more

Stay Awake! Stay Aware! Be Ready to Act!

So, you see there is a reason why Republican Senators and Reps are spineless, sniveling fools right now… but if they don’t stand up Now, which I don’t think they ever well, there is no way to stop TruMuck using our democratic levers of democracy.

Stay Aware. Stay Informed. Take Breaks, But DO NOT IGNORE THIS. Action is Required.

Monsters Are Made

We Make Monsters in our Heads

It is a few days after Halloween, and monsters seem to fit the season and the times we live in right now.

A few days before Halloween, I heard an interview on It’s Been A Minute called Our Undying Cultural Obsession with Vampires. And this got me thinking about monsters and how they are made.

In this interview, Kendra R. Parker, who teaches a class at Georgia Southern University about Black vampires in film and literature, discusses the long, sordid history of monsters, especially vampires, and our collective obsession with them.

It is she who said monsters are made. Think Frankenstein, definitely constructed by a human.

And we do this all the time…in our heads simply repeating the stories we tell ourselves that create indelible images, which we then project onto the world we live in. Or better said, the world we wish we lived in.


The Planet We Made

Cover of Time Magazine : The Planet We Made — The Planet We Need — Social Sculpture…How We Can All Participate in Protecting and Seeing Earth Anew — Artwork by Olafur Eliasson

Olafur Eliasson is an IcelandicDanish artist known for sculptured and large-scale installation art that employ elemental materials such as light, water, and air temperature to enhance the viewer’s experience. He designed the cover of Time this month to highlight our collective climate crisis that will affect and impact everyone on Earth. Rich or poor, everyone will pay a huge price for further dithering and delaying on taking immediate action Now.

Olafur tells Time to create the effect on TIME’s cover, he employed a technique called after imaging. By following the instructions on the cover, when the page changes, your eyes re-imagine our overheated planet in the healthy vibrant greens and blues we, the human race, were born into and began our journey as a species through time.


The Monsters We Make

This same elusive after imaging takes place inside our minds. The images that get stored inside our minds are created by the stories we tell ourselves and the images we consume as ordinary citizens.

These images, let’s call them cultural images, are stored in our minds as belief systems. Beliefs are vastly more complicated images than the one created by Olafur Eliasson for the cover of TIME. However, compared to reality, beliefs are pathetic and paltry.

Belief systems tend to leave far more outside (the evil other) than inside (the person who sees the the world like you do). All of us adopt and cultivate belief systems. They help us know who we can trust. And, they help us survive by acting as short cuts to reality.

By popping your beliefs into a situation, you can just get down to action. Or really reaction to a situation because beliefs allow you to skip the work of hard thinking, critical analysis, and feeling into what you are actually experiencing.

Systems of belief are informed by the families we grow up in, the cultures we live in, and the religions we participate in (or do not participate in). Systems of belief are further evolved and informed by friends, peers, teachers, clubs, politics, and media, among many other sources.

Whether you accept the stories and images imparted to you through these systems, whether you believe them or you don’t believe them, beliefs about how the world is or isn’t are formed and held in the mind very much like the phantom image Olafur Eliasson created on the cover of TIME.

Each and every belief are things you have choose to accept, to believe, and to store in your head. You choose to believe the things you think are true or what you don’t believe or believe to be not true, regardless of whether they are empirically true or not true.

Once you commit to a belief (in other words you swallow an idea hook, line, and sinker), it creates an indelible image of how the world is, which gets overlay onto everything you do and everyone around you. Very much like the elusive image Olafur Eliasson made for the November 2022 cover of TIME. You put them there, and then you project them on the world.

Beliefs are more likes wishes, fears, and desires. They accord with more how we want the world to be rather than how it really is. Our wish/fear/wants live inside our minds and are projected on the world every moment of our lives. They hoover and cling to everything and everyone we come into contact with like a ghostly aura. Depending on what our projected system of beliefs tells us we should believe about a person or a thing that comes into our narrow bandwidth of focused conscious attention, aligns our actions and behavior in the world.

This rather simple ability has oversized implications–some good, some bad. It is an ability that we take for granted as human beings. Our ability to create systems of beliefs is a form of ignorance (ignorance, what we choose not to see) and it has gotten the better of us. It is what allows us to turn ordinary human beings into monsters or our world into a wasteland.

Kendra R. Parker explains our creation of and fascination with monsters this way:

When Dracula appeared in the 19th century, there was all of this fear, the English were preoccupied with borders, boundaries and nationalism. Between like 1881 and 1900 there was an increase in the number of non-English Jewish people. There was this xenophobia, this fear of Jewish people, this sort of threat of external colonization. And so these fears about the threatening outsider, who is going to come in and disturb the national pure body, finds its way into Bram Stoker's Dracula. 
And if we come to the United States in 1898, we have newspaper images popping up out of North Carolina that depict Black men as vampires because there was this fear of Black men. There's this fear of black men being in politics and so that if you got black political power, then they're going to take over and destroy white women and all of that. And so you've got all of this propaganda. 
And there are two images in particular. One is called "The Vampire that Hovers Over North Carolina." It appears in 1898, and it's a Black male vampire coming out of a ballot box. And there's another image that same time period in North Carolina where you got vampires coming out of the grave to vote and they're Black. And so there's this fear that if you let these monsters vote, they will take over and destroy our way of life.

The Monsters We Are

When we use our system of beliefs to turn other human beings into monsters, it is ourselves who become the monster. When hate becomes our fuel, then the transformation is complete. The monster has been made.

It is a way of being in the world that leads to Hell. It is the path of destruction, of mayhem, and of death.

It is a way of being in the world that may begin by being suspicious, distrustful, and skeptical. But it can quickly eclipse who you think you are and make you into a person who takes pleasure in being cynical, ghoulish, grisly, and grotesque.

Such a journey is often summed up by the popular phrase — Take The Red Pill. This means a person that falls down a rabbit hole. They start out innocently following juicy breadcrumbs of gossip and plausibly outrageous happens that grow ever more implausible. But once you get hooked on these toxic breadcrumbs carefully left behind by Master Manipulators who are experts in making the implausible sound plausible. Indeed, the Truth that you are willing to die for.

How To Make of a Monster

Step 1) Chop the world into absolutely good and absolutely evil, then choose a role to play in this absolute drama (it goes without saying that whatever side you play on… that is the righteous side, the good guys, the side that is going to slay absolute evil)

Step 2) Select a Mask for the role you will play in the absolute drama to rid the world of absolute evil (make sure you are the Super Hero of your story and everyone else is the bad guy)

Step 3) Strap Your Mask Tightly To Your Face So It Doesn’t Slip or Fall Off (you don’t want anyone to see you are merely human like the people and other living beings you are dehumanizing)

Step 4) Cut Up Bits and Pieces from the World and Other Stories, Then Mash Them Into Your Mask So You Become Unrecognizable Like Camouflage (it doesn’t matter if the bits and pieces make sense anymore, you are creating your super hero version of yourself!)

Step 5) Add Lots of Layers to Your Mask, Be Sure to Use Lots of Devilish Deceit and Deception, More Camouflage to Help You Better Play Your Role (God forbid anyone recognize that you’re really human behind your Fake Persona)

Step 6) Distort, Deform, and Mangle Your Mask to Create Fantastic New Levels of Distractions and Illusions, Even More Camouflage… Fighting Evil Isn’t for Sissies (this will draw others to you — your followers, your zombie army)

Step 7) Forget You Are Wearing A Mask: Now You Are A Monster

Image From: Metaflesh by Evan J. Peterson

I have not read this book, Metaflesh. But, the image of the cover is captivating. To me, it perfectly captures how we can turn ourselves into monsters using any system of belief, any one at all. In the land of make believe, nothing is sacred. Once we slip down a rabbit holes inside our minds, the inner Hellish landscape allows us to endlessly violently project onto others what we cannot admit to ourselves that we are.

This is a book review of Metaflesh from where I got the image:

Metaflesh is written by Evan J. Peterson, author of The PrEP Diaries: A Safe(r) Sex Memoir and DragStar!,  the world’s first drag performer role-playing game. Metaflesh is a book of verse and prose from the point of view of Frankenstein’s Monster. The reflections are inspired not only by Mary Shelley’s seminal work (double entendre fully intended) but also by the pop culture descendants of her novel. Sources include a wide variety of Frankenstein/mad scientist movies and song lyrics. The book also contains themes of Jewish folklore, queer culture, camp, and a lot of David Cronenberg-style body horror. The book covers the gamut of the Monster’s experiences through over a century of movies and songs, and portrays the Monster as both gender-fluid and a sort of chimerical film critic, reviewing portrayals of their self through lyric poetry and flash fiction.
This is an ingenious book of metafiction. Just as Dr. Frankenstein cut up different people and stitched the bits together, Peterson cut up and reassembled his sources, turning them into something greater than the sum of their parts. Borrowing from William S. Burroughs cut-up technique, he splices together Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein with F.T. Marinetti’s Manifesto del Futurismo (Futurist Manifesto) and with J. G. Ballard’s essay, “Why I want to F*ck Ronald Reagan.” He apostrophizes the sexually explicit films of avant-garde queer Canadian creator Bruce LaBruce and doesn’t forget to include General Mills’ Frankenberry breakfast cereal or select lines from Mommy Dearest and The Rocky Horror Picture Show.  The combined imagery of classical Greek mythology, white supremacy, drag queens, Judaism, and zombie erotica do not merge into a hot mess but meld together into a deliciously readable book.   
This literary retrospective is sad, funny, quirky, surgically precise, and captivating. I was never bored and didn’t skip through parts. I tore through my first reading at speed and have been taking my time through subsequent readings. The only spot which slows me down, pulling me to a frowning halt, is a simile in the poem, “His Name is In Me”:  “gross as the tallest savage.” Although I’m aware that white supremacist imagery is intentionally used throughout the book—punching up, not down—the use of the word “savage” feels out of place here. It is a racial slur used against Black and Indigenous peoples and stands out awkwardly in a poem strongly based in Judaic imagery. If it is a slur used against Jews, I am unaware, but this is my only quibble with the entire book.  -- Book Review: Metaflesh by Evan J. Peterson

Someone Once Told Me

Someone once told me that my blog The StoryTelling Species Series was just a story. He really just wanted to put it down and elevate himself because we were having a very strong disagreement about COVID. I knew he was wrong, but could not explain to him why he was so wrong then.

Now I can. I knew it is the stories we tell ourselves that make us into heroes or villains, good or evil, saints or monsters. Now I know how it happens inside our minds.

Given how susceptible we are to believe our own stories and lies about ourselves, it is best to give all other people the benefit of the doubt and trust they are not the monster you are afraid of… the one that lives inside of you. It is best just be human and to recognize that we have a little bit of good and a little bit of bad inside of us.

It is when we hang onto the evil inside of us and refuse to let go of it that we make ourselves into monsters and turn Earth into Hell. Trust that reality is far more interesting than the stories we tell ourselves about our selves and others.

Trust that you belong here and now with everyone else and that together we can heal ourselves. This is something we can only do together. And if we heal, Earth heals and our burning hot planet may once again shine in its brilliant, beautiful, life sustaining blues and greens!
