That made me well up. I've made arrangements to get out. Tanks planes and troops 200 km from here isn't giving me much comfort. Joining NATO was a shit daft idea. Kahlúa and a Valium are my lunch as I despise traveling passionately. Octo please check your messages.

Hope you're okay. Anyone hear from Strigoi?

Hi Sandy, I'm okay I suppose. Not much for posting from the phone :/ In the new place, waiting for these people to come install my new modem.

 Hey strigoi!

The cable companies usually take forever to show up... only time they move fast is if you forget to pay the bill.  

~~~~~~ Playing with War Games ~~~~~~~

We used to Play for fun

they said it was natural

no one lost, no one won

that wasn't all that factual

you see, it was prepping

we'd see War soon enough

Playing Army was just a game

no one died, no one cried

Conditioning children was insane

they had lied, most of us died

The Pillars of Society never came

to the War they called a game

We those poor, the young,

Died in that War, as Battle cry sung

It's a Shame.

we were playing a Game

Sad endings every time

for children too poor

to understand the Crime

~~~~~~~~~ Odd thought, we pay the bills and die for a False Cause ~~~~~~~~~

As kids, the law stated 12 years of P.E., I wondered why, during the Vietnam War, I was told this >>>------>

when ww2 broke out, men were drafted to serve ( Serve? serve What, and Who)

a high percentage of the drafted men were so Physically out of Shape,

they were 4F and could not fight in the War,,,

Congress passed the "Scholastic Physical Education Law"

12 years of Public School Physical Education was at that point,

Made Mandatory for all Children in Schools.

We Kids, without our Knowledge, nor our consent, were being conditioned physically for Cannon Fodder.

Along with the Physical Conditioning, The Psychological Conditioning would as well be applied.

and that, again, would be without our Knowledge and consent.

and I wondered, if I told my generation back then,

that they, like Ponies ,

were being trained to become expendable

in the Next Military/Industrial War for Profits Scheme,

would they listen, if so, would they descent against the Trainers?

MK Ultra was never shelved, it is a Daily Experience for all of us.

Brainwashing

Controlling Minds

Influencing

And Now?

I can Save my Wind.

No one listened, no one cared, no one saved their lives.

Isolating in Nature became a Medicine.

Nature is the perfect place to hang out

I asked that same Ukrainian woman today how she's doing and I almost start crying seeing how distraught she is.

I said I was glad they were here. She said "yes, but it's still very difficult..."

A local business that has a lot of Ukrainians working for them sent some buses to the Polish border to pick up their families and relatives left in Ukraine. Several families are on their way up here right now.

You get higher class immigrants than we do.

😆

I'm not going to touch that. There were Ukrainians lined up for kilometers to get into Romania when I decided to go on holiday.

They are the folks that come to Finland and work in the Fox Fur industry.

The Ukrainians say they make more in a few months here than they do all year back home.

Free Skylink internet in Ukraine -

Musk apparently obliged, tweeting Saturday that Starlink service was active in Ukraine and also agreeing to send more Starlink terminals to expand the country's bandwidth.

"Starlink service is now active in Ukraine. More terminals en route," Musk tweeted.

And it was an extremely stupid idea to shut down the Keystone pipeline.

Biden admin focusing on virtue signaling in favor of energy independence helped pave the road to this tragedy.

A little less Orange man bad a little more common sense would have made for a better presidency.

Running a country to appease a small vocal group on twitter and a handful of actresses with D by their names to give the old farts the illusion of relevancy is not working.

Just look at the polls.

Shutting down that pipeline then relying upon Russia and Iran to increase oil production was ludicrous. All to spite Tump  

My Russian coworker brought her mother here, she lives close to the Ukrainian border. There's shelling on the Russian side too and they don't know if it's the Russians shelling their own or the Ukrainians. It's heartbreaking.

This is some tear jerking stuff. Do you and JR worry about living so close Octo?
