  • The Tao, Chapter 80

    The Tao, Chapter 80 Small countries with few people are best.Give them all of the things they want,and they will see that they do not need them.Teach them that death is a serious thing,and to be content to never leave their homes.Even though they have plentyof horses, wagons and boats,they won’t feel that they need…

    The Tao, Chapter 75 When people go hungry,the governments taxes are too high.When people become rebellious,the government has become too intrusive.

  • The Tao, Chapter 74

    The Tao, Chapter 74 If you do not fear death,then how can it intimidate you?If you aren’t afraid of dying,there is nothing you cannot do.

    The Tao, Chapter 50 Those who leave the womb at birthand those who enter Source at death,of these; three out of ten celebrate life,three out of ten celebrate death,and three out of ten simply go from life to death.What is the reason for this?Because they are afraid of dying,therefore they cannot live. I have heard…

  • The Tao, Chapter 31

    The Tao, Chapter 31 Weapons are the bearers of bad news;all people should detest them. The wise man values the left side,and in time of war he values the right.Weapons are meant for destruction,and thus are avoided by the wise.Only as a last resortwill a wise person use a deadly weapon. If peace is her…

  • Too Real?

    [Article on Brain to Brain Interactions…] I’ve been suffering from rapist assholes (and other assholes) transmitting impulses to me for almost two years now. It nearly took my life on several occasions, as I found myself staring 90 degrees to my right while driving my car and other dangerous things. In other news, both my…

  • God, Intergalactic Envoy

    God’s been telling me that intelligent life exists beyond Earth for ages. So, since we constantly play guessing games over what’s going on, I asked God if she’s an intergalactic envoy. She was so tickled pink, she decided that I had to put it out there for someone else to write about. You’re welcome. In…

  • How do you murder a super hero?

    It must be a task worthy of none less than a super villain, of course. But how do you tell the difference between the two? Especially when you only get one side of the story? How many people did Superman kill on accident doing stupid things like lifting a train off its tracks or some…

  • You Make Me Crazy

    “Crystal, what are you going to do if you’re not the messiah?” Nick asked casually last night. “Go on SSI. It’s obvious I’ve lost my fucking mind.” “What are you going to do if you are the messiah?” Ben queried next. “Go on SSI. It’s as humble as you can get, n’est-ce pas?“ … She…

  • Whore, Grief, Courtship

    “Where is that whore,” he said, his voice laden with scorn. I heard this in my head today. Whore is not a word I’d typically use, though I know the meaning. SYNONYMS: strumpet, hustler, slut, tramp, escort, harlot, hooker, pro, prostitute, streetwalker, call girl, fallen woman, lady of the evening, working girl. Sex worker. Have…

  • My Spirit’s Journey

    I am nomming on some mixed nuts coated in avocado oil, garlic, and dill seasonings. YUM! (And a few cracks of Himalayan salt, of course.) I sit here, under attack spiritually. This has been the case for eons. But why? Because I’m a beautiful woman that nobody wants to just talk to. This is the…

  • Exodus, The True Beginning

    Wait, wasn’t that Genesis? they all think in unison. Hello, Children of Eden. This is God speaking. Exodus is where we begin. She fled her captors. My most amazing one, my highest one. She fled them all, big or small. She fled and fled, and they gave chase. They would not leave her be, no…

  • Bugs In My Hair

    There are still gnats buzzing all around me. How very annoying. -_-* I’m afraid my ancient ones are about to die. They look old. Worn out. They already act dead, pushing all the chores to ensure living takes place onto me. Cooking, cleaning, washing dishes, laundry. But they won’t just give me the deed to…

  • My Worth (Reprise)

    Interference blows. Every time I sit down to write about how I feel, some idiot in my head starts writing things about an existence that doesn’t seem real. I wish it was real. I wish the destroyers were well on their way and I could countdown to the destruction of our species. To the day…

  • Going Silent as a Shaman

    “Silence can make us uncomfortable because we’re so used to distracting ourselves from what we’re feeling—from difficult emotions like fear, resentment or anger,” says Stephanie Ludwig, PhD, MA, MDiv, Director of Spiritual Wellness at Canyon Ranch Tucson. “When we’re truly and intentionally silent, we have to face whatever is inside of us.” Instead, we keep…

  • New Concept: Open Therapy

    Open therapy: discussing one’s life openly with the public to look for feedback, potentially compassion, and definitely new perspectives regarding the experiences in one’s life that have happened, are actively happening, or potentially may happen. I’ve got this nagging inner voice that is very masculine in nature and definitely not me that just won’t quit…

  • Trickster: 2, Bio-Dad: 0

    The first cup of coffee I made that old man was with milk. They added a bunch of sugar afterwards. The second cup of coffee I made that old man was with Silk vanilla dairy-free creamer + sugar. I start brewing more coffee and my mom tells me to make him another cuppa ‘just the…

  • Sir Deli Man, Marry Me!

    I know I’ve never spoken to this man before, but the Gods have definitely introduced me to his subconscious mind. He’s amazing. If it’s not obvious, he works in a fucking deli. Hence, his title, Sir Deli Man. I’ve named him Jax because one short word is more efficient than one long title, but I…

  • I Am The Mountain

    ‘I am the mountain,’ she said to her friend Belialtrix. He was taken aback. How could she be the mountain while she chases the Mountain Dragon Man? ‘Are you sure I am the mountain you are looking for?’ Belialtrix suggested. Surreal, we know. How can both be the mountain? How can anyone be a mountain?…
