Progress

 

So, I finally did it. Raised my VO2 Max from 39 to 42. 

If you are younger than 30, that number probably sounds unimpressive, but I'm a bit older than that, and so for my age and gender, that's in the excellent range.

My next goal will be 45. I seek to become superior. 

Not against others though, but against my own base and inferior tendencies. 

I'm also humbled by the fact that regardless of what some chart says is in the excellent or superior range, that's just a general guideline, and there may be people significantly higher than that in the same age group or older.

I've read in some forums of peak female athletes being in their late 50s or 60s, and having a VO2 Max of 50 plus, which is higher than some males in decent shape half that age.

I'm running again, but have also taken up tennis. It's fun. I have a tennis court where I live so it makes it really convenient. But it's like now I have to buy new shoes and new clothes and it's not really in my budget. Anyway, I've filmed some of it, and eventually I will post a few highlights.

This season I'm really making a big commitment to increasing my physical fitness. Yeah, I'm still drinking beer, and smoking a lot of pot, am officially now a pothead, but I'm focused on the essentials, becoming extremely fit and going on adventures. 

It's unfortunate that I have to slave away for a living, spending a significant portion of my time engaged in activities that are not conducive to my personal happiness, and as an independent contractor with no guarantee of work, every week is full of uncertainty, but I'm making time to spend in the outdoors doing fun things that are personally enriching. 

I've got a bunch of field trips planned. Not sure if I'll be putting it on YouTube or not, but there will be some visual evidence. 

Of course the internet is dead, censorship is at an all time high, and the internet may go offline soon, possible EMP attack on the horizon, or possible fake event to erase history and keep everyone in the dark, but I'll keep going for as long as possible and hoping for the best.

Evidence of Censorship

If you search DuckDuckGo, the web browser, right now, on this day, September 24, 2024, inputting the query "effortlessflow" you get an excerpt from my post about Candace Owens, wherein the snippet of the post contains text not found anywhere on this blog.

I've never seen this before. Not in all the 15 plus years that I've been blogging here. Previously all snippets of a post only contained words scraped verbatim from this blog.

It appears that in their quest for total control and domination and censorship of all information, they are now resorting to just making stuff up. The AI bots are there as a decoy, to throw you off the scent, a scent that leads to a trail of lies, a trail of premeditated obfuscation of the truth, destruction of life, and destruction of all that is good and true and beautiful and holy.

Update: Upon closer inspection I see that the text added to the post snippet, is text that came from the video I posted, which had an overlayed message embedded in it. I don't believe it was there when I originally posted it, but nevertheless the fact that the search engine algorithm prioritized that text, and none of the actual original content from this blog, gives credence to the fact that my blog, and perhaps all blogs are being heavily censored in a way not seen before.

The Ant Attack

So I mentioned that it's been the worst summer ever, but didn't really elaborate on what I meant by that. There are several contributing factors, but I will only explore one example right now, supporting the argument of this being the worst summer ever. 

I live in a hot climate: Southern Arizona. I'm not from here, am from the Upper Midwest, but that's where I live now.

I can count on one hand the number of times I have ever been bitten by ants in the first forty years of my life. This year I have been bitten by more ants than I have ever been bitten before in all of my life. 

For most of the summers here I would wear shorts and short sleeved shirts whenever I could, but this year is the first year in my life that I have not ventured outside beyond my own front door, without wearing long pants and long sleeved shirts. You know I ride a bicycle all year-round. I'm a full-time car-free bicycle commuter. It's 100 degrees outside and I ride my bike. And yet I'm wearing long pants and long sleeves, even on cloudy days. First year ever I did that. 

It's because I'm being attacked by bugs. Mosquitos and ants, mostly. Never had a problem before. I mean, yeah, I've been bitten by mosquitos and ants before, but not like this. It's like they are vampires after my blood, and they are vicious. I wonder why?

A couple months ago, when I stepped outside in the early morning to bring my cat in, wearing sandals without socks, walked a few feet onto the lawn and literally within seconds, was immediately attacked by ants, biting my legs and feet. 

A couple weeks ago, I was sitting on the edge of my bed, and lay down on my side, and was immediately bitten on my left arm by ants. There were like over 50 little ants on my bed, and they were coming in through the wall from the electrical socket. I must have caught one hundred ants in total. They don't like peppermint oil. That's a good ant repellent. They also don't like chalk. I've lined my front door with a thick layer of chalk, one inch is not enough, need to go at least three inches. And it stopped the ants, for a couple weeks, but now they are coming through the walls, in various cracks and crevices, in different areas than before.

Today I woke up with an itchy left hand palm. Then I noticed that my entire left hand was swollen, I appear to have been bitten on my palm and the top of my left hand multiple times. I applied an ice pack and made an herbal poultice using Mullein, where I put it in a tea bag and taped it to my hand, and the swelling has come down somewhat, but it's still swollen. I showed my swollen hand to someone, and they said, oh you might have to go to the hospital.

I originally thought it was a mosquito bite, but now I'm not sure, because I have found multiple ants in the middle of my floor a few hours later. I have also been bit on my face, even when I was wearing shorts and a tank top inside, and have also been bitten on the bottom of my left foot as well.

I'm seriously contemplating setting up my tent in my room, in place of my bed, and sleeping in it, to be protected by the mosquito netting. Because this has never happened before. I've never been bothered by bugs as much as I have been in the past few months, and I'm thinking it's because the blood supply is now contaminated, and the bugs are sensing that my blood is healthier for their survival.

The Narrative

Jews, Jews, Jews, love them, or hate them, they are here to stay, whether you like it or not; sometimes playing the victim, and collecting the check, and sometimes playing the victor, and collecting the check.

If you examine the historical record you will see that antisemitism has been a recurring theme throughout the ages. It never goes away, and it never seems to end. What is it about these people that generates such profound hatred and mistrust, a recurring theme repeating itself every century and in almost every country for thousands of years? 

It's not an isolated incident. It's not something that originated in WWII with the Nazis, it's been an issue since the beginning of time. 

I'm not sure I believe that all Jays are evil, but I'm thinking there is a small segment of Jays working for evil purposes, who are probably willing to sacrifice their fellow Jays who have done nothing wrong, in order to further their objective. And I think this has been going on for a long time. That there probably have been multiple holocausts, and every time, you will find Jays implicated in allowing it to happen, and perhaps were even masterminds of it, simply because they view it as a means to an end, and therefore feel justified in doing it. 

These Weinstein guys keep showing up everywhere. It's like they know something, and are privy to some high level insider information that they keep wanting to share. 

Should we believe it? I'm not sure, but I think it's probably useful to be aware of it. Also, this Candace Owens, I like her, even though she's probably what they call "controlled opposition". She's probably an actor, a good one though, and she's married to a British lord. Hmm, a black American actress married to a Royal. Who else comes to mind? Um, Prince Harry? Which in itself is very suspect. It's like a rich white aristocrat married a Jew, and it was a match made in heaven. Ever since it's been a war against the poor, and that mean's it's a war against 99 percent of all humanity.

Here are the videos to watch: 

1) Eric Weinstein.  

2) Bret Weinstein.

YouTube Channel Coming Soon?

So, it's been awhile. I just haven't felt like writing anything here. I typically don't write my posts in advance, I just do it live, on the fly. Where I just sit down and write in the Blogger editor, sort of stream of consciousness style, only editing for clarity and punctuation, and that's about it.

Usually I have some underlying idea, something I feel emotionally compelled to get off my chest, or something I did or plan to do, but a lot of times I just figure it out as I go along. 

It's been a really unpleasant summer. Probably one of the worst ones ever. I've been really hot and uncomfortable much of the time, even with the air conditioner running and fans on me. Haven't been sleeping well either, although some days are better than others. And I haven't been exercising much, only because it's been too hot to exercise. But I ride my bike to the store, once or twice a week, and ride fast, so still have some fitness, I'm not completely out of shape, but I was definitely in better shape four months ago, so have to get back to it, going on some long bike rides and long hikes off the beaten path and hopefully some solo camping trips.

I'm really thinking about possibly starting a YouTube channel, and going on some adventures and recording it. I just don't want to show my face, or have my voice recorded, which makes the whole thing slightly complicated, but we'll see what can be done to make it work. 

I'm thinking like a reboot of the adventure scout idea. You know I used to have a blog that was sort of a travel blog, but more so just about outdoor activities, day trips, and nature photography. I'd go on a walk or bike ride and I'd write about it and post pictures. I posted some of it here, but mostly it was on the other site, which has long since been deleted, and mostly forgotten about, and I don't even think there is a cached page of it anywhere.

Well, I'd like to do that again, but instead of taking pictures, I'd film it with an action camera. I feel compelled to become an amateur archeologist and investigative journalist and adventure tour guide. I think it would motivate me to go on all sorts of adventures that I wouldn't go on otherwise. After all I do live in a tourist town, with a lot of interesting outdoor scenic attractions, many I've never even been to before despite living here for years. Like the zoo. I've never been to the zoo here before, even though I used to go to the zoo all the time in my hometown when I was a kid. There's also several parks I haven't been to. So, I'd really like to do that, go on some adventures, hiking, biking, longboarding, running, maybe even go on a trip outside of the city, and filming it but without actually recording myself speak.

You see that's the thing. I want complete creative freedom to express myself, but I'm also aware that in this age of heightened censorship, AI deepfake technology, and the prospect of identity theft, I also don't want to completely lose the protection of anonymity. You know do I use my real name? Do I use a pseudonym? Do I show my face, do I speak? Because once you go public you can't really take it back.

Anyway, besides wanting a reason to go on some local adventures, once the weather cools off a little more, there's several personal achievements I'd like to accomplish. You know mostly athletic, such as run three miles in 30 minutes or less. Ride my bike 100 miles in one day. Stuff like that. If I have an action camera, and a YouTube channel, it might just give me the motivation to accomplish some of these personal goals. Again have to find a balance between how much to share and how much to keep private. 

I still plan on creating a website eventually, but since I haven't really been writing much, it just doesn't make sense to spend all that money setting it up, if I'm not ready to give it my full commitment.

7.13.2024

Remember in the old days of blogging when people weren't fake? I mean a person could be a clueless idiot, a conceited snob, or an irredeemable jerk, but you could still be pretty sure that they were a real person.

Now that the AI bots have taken over, the internet is dead. It has once been said that God is dead, but that was a lie. 

What's happening now is that there is a full throttle attack being orchestrated against free speech, and a controlled demolition against access to uncensored information. It's like the burning of the Great Library of Alexandria unfolding right before our eyes.

Yes, the dump has been hot, but we all know it's a guy. 

Speaking in cold. Can you figure it out?

Anyway, being the conspiracy theory connoisseur that I am, it was only a matter of time before I stumbled upon the flat earth conspiracy. And we all know the earth is a globe, right? Yeah, so says the same people that say that the vaccine is safe and effective. 

I know it's crazy, and I know that swearing on a bible in a court of law, and testifying under oath, that you honestly, truly believe from the bottom of your heart, that the earth is flat, can actually get you committed into an insane asylum. 

I mean if you are a complete loser that no one cares about, you'll probably get away with it, because everyone will just assume that you're either crazy or stupid or extremely gullible, and not pay any attention to it, but if you are a smart person with a good reputation, well, as they say in the movie GoodFella: fuggedaboutit.

It's an interesting picture, isn't it? What do you think it means?

I Almost Forgot

I've been freelancing for at least ten years now, and longer, if you count the brief period of time I spent playing poker online for real money, and living off the earnings. 

It was almost 20 years ago, but for the most part, the majority of my freelance work has been supplemental income, meaning that I already had a job, and the freelance income was extra money.

Now let's fast forward into the future. 

2024 is the first year in my life that I've ever attempted to survive entirely from freelance income.

Well, it's been a struggle, and some would say a complete disaster, because in this time my savings has been getting smaller and smaller and not growing at all.

I had one month where I made significantly more than my previous 40 hour a week job. Then I had another month that I made less in a month than I had previously made in a week. 

It's been a roller coaster. 

Of course, it doesn't help that I don't really have a professional skill to fall back on. I'm not a computer programmer, or a graphic designer, or a public accountant. And I'm obviously not a construction worker, plumber, or electrician. I'm just someone with above average intelligence who has scraped by doing jobs that I really don't care about doing, but am able to do with above average performance. 

Doing freelance work may sound emancipating at first, but I guess it depends on what work you do and the people you work for, but in my case what I'm doing right now puts me at the mercy of people and organizations that I have absolutely zero influence over. 

I'm just a cog in the machine, even worse than before when I actually had some job security, and if they can find someone else to do the job more cheaply than you do, and are able to do it at a minimum level of performance without completely screwing things up, well then, I guess you won't be making any money from them anymore.

Redneck

I've finally deciphered the riddle of the redneck. 

As an outdoorsy Wisconsinite, now living in the state of Arizona, I've never considered myself a redneck. In my mind, whether right or wrong, being a redneck was synonymous with being white trash. 

White trash equals not just being poor, but also being stupid and ignorant.

But I don't think that's the case. 

Just like not all black people are stupid, not all rednecks are stupid. 

So, what exactly is a redneck? 

Typically it is a term used to describe white people, who live in rural conditions, who usually don't have a lot of money, and who don't have a lot of status.

You know if you are white and rich and love being close to nature, living outside in your log cabin, in your tree house, or your yurt, whatever, you probably won't be called a redneck, instead you'll be called rustic, and outdoorsy, and free spirited, and your neck won't be red, unless you fell asleep while sun bathing on the beaches of Tahiti.

Redneck is a term typically applied to white people, of Northern European decent, typically males, with light eyes, usually blue or green, and fair skin, who live in an environment in which they are genetically ill adapted, such as a place that is hot and sunny much of the year, who due to either poverty, or ignorance fail to protect their skin from long-term sun damage. Meaning that when they are outside, and it is very hot outside, and they are wearing minimal clothing, the first place to burn, or to show signs of burning due to long term exposure, is the neck. 

Hence the term redneck. That's all it is, which if you think about it could be perceived as being a racial slur against white people.

The Spellcheckers

Down the Rabbit hole we go.

Here's an instant observation: 

Have you noticed that your spell checker software has not been working right lately? 

Well, I have. 

Try it sometime. Intentionally misspell a word, an obvious word, something basic like "aple". You'd think "apple" would be a suggestion, but no, instead you'll get something like "afel", "amel", "eplle". 

It very well could be geographically targeted, or maybe it only happens certain times of the day, as in not everyone sees it, or not all the time, but that's what I've noticed lately in my neck of the woods.

This development could be both good and bad. 

Good in the sense that smart people who were otherwise being lazy relying on the built in spellchecker systems, will notice the error and correct the problem on their own without requiring external assistance. Which means opening up a real dictionary, preferably one you can actually see and touch and pick up and hold in your real hands, and commit the word and its definition to memory, like we used to do before the internet made some of us into lazy thinkers.

Bad in the sense that less intelligent people will NOT learn from their mistakes and will instead regurgitate the nonsense. Meaning that if they misspell a word and the spellchecker makes a mistake and gives them the wrong answer, over time they may internalize the wrong answer, and fail to learn how to spell the word without the use of the spellchecker telling them what it means.

Based on the evidence given above, it would be fair to ask the spell checker: "Have you cast any spells lately?" 

You know, like Harry Potter. 

Like what exactly does a hairy potter look like? Does it look like a hairy spider in a pot? Or does it look like a boy named Harry in a pot? Like a witches cauldron, with the bodies and brains of humans, steeping and stewing, while the spell checkers cast spells in it.

What a riddle that is. 

The Predicament

I remember a few years ago, as in probably ten years ago, I made some post here, which is not available anymore, about a visualization exercise I mentioned about projecting my consciousness into outer space and then looking back at the earth from that perspective.

It's a good exercise. I do it all the time. But when you are really good at it you can actually visualize being there, as in literally hovering above the earth and observing it from a distance, but obviously when I write about the experience, I'm not there anymore, I'm writing from memory, because when you are astral projecting you can't write. 

But when you are up there, you can see clearly, and not just in a physical way, but your thoughts and perceptions about the world, everything is very lucid.

You can see the earth physically and you can also see the state of affairs governing the planet, culturally, politically, and economically, how the people are like cattle being kept on a farm and raised for slaughter. It's a slow kill, that's how come people don't notice it. 

It's like a frog being boiled alive, slowly and gradually over the period of several years, like a slow simmering stew. For the frog, it's like soaking in a hot spring, which at first appears to be comforting and relaxing, a soothing retreat from the troubles of the world, until at some point, the water comes to a boil, and it's too late to escape, such is the predicament of life on earth.  

But rest assured, all hope is not lost. This is the predicament, but it doesn't mean it's inevitable for everyone.

The Ultimate Grift

I just watched a video on YouTube about a guy who bought a van and fixed it up with the purpose of living in it full-time. 

He had a job, a professional career, wasn't facing homelessness, he just wanted to save some money on rent. I mean minus the cost of the vehicle, insurance, phone, internet, and upkeep, your main expenses will be food and fuel. 

It's smart. I'd love to do it myself, but it's currently not possible. Kind of like sailing. I would love to live on a sailboat, like full-time and forever, but it just isn't possible for me right now. 

Anyway, this guy, these videos about people living in vans and living on boats, being happy and free, well it occurred to me while watching this video, at the end I wondered if this could be an artificially generated video. Like I wasn't just speculating or hypothesizing, I was making a real time observation, that there were certain tells in this dudes appearance and behavior that suggested that it could be artificially generated.

Like this is how the propaganda works: it works best when you form an emotional connection. You feel like you like this person, you like the way they are living, and you feel you are on a compatible wavelength, and because of this connection, you are more likely to be receptive to anything else they say. But what if they are intentionally feeding you bullshit? Not the part about living in a van or a boat, but when they make a comment about something else, anything, their perspective on the world, well that could be the whole point of the video, to insert an idea that you will be sympathetic to.

The whole catch though is that what if this isn't even a real person, or even a paid actor, but a robot, a commercial, a Hollywood prop, where everything in it is artificial and fake, and the only reason why it's there is to misguide you and to misdirect you and to sell you something and to implant some idea in your head.

YouTubers and podcasters, how many of them are fake, and how many of them are real?

Like the biggest thing I'm hearing about, and also experiencing firsthand is that AI is a big let down, that it's not as good as previously claimed, that it's all a bunch of hype, and the truth is it makes a lot of mistakes, what they call "hallucinating" in the AI world, where it will just completely invent a story and present it as if it were factually true, which could be a major problem when dealing with medical and technological matters, or in the management of technological systems like airplane navigation systems and submarines, where truth and accuracy is of paramount importance. 

But what if that is the plan? What if the AI malfunction is part of a plan, like a computer virus intentionally implemented by actors wishing death and destruction to all who execute the software. And what if the perception of broken AI is also part of the plan? That it's broken by design and they want you to know it. 

And what if there's another version that isn't broken, in the sense that it does exactly what its programmed to do.

What if the AI is so advanced that when you see it personified in human form, whether that be CGI, or an actual materialized humanoid robot, and it is so advanced that you cannot tell whether what you are seeing, and interacting with and streaming on YouTube, is human or AI. And I'm thinking AI is completely taking over all digital content, not just the written word, but also videos and podcasts. It's being implemented with the purpose of gaining a monopoly over the control of information, and maximizing profits by taking over systems previously occupied by humans.

It's getting to the point that when you go on YouTube and watch any show, whether it's a video about living in a van or living on a sailboat or hiking across country and living in the woods, there's a good chance some of these people you watch might actually be AI. I mean I'm sure they all aren't, but I think some of them could be, and as we move forward into the future this number will likely increase exponentially. 

Especially the commercials. I've been watching streaming TV for at least ten years, and I've been noticing a major increase in new commercials lately, with people that look just a little too perfect, with perfect smiles and shiny eyes that shout "YES, I'm a slave and you can be too!"

It's a form of subtle brainwashing.

Certainly if the technology existed to do this, it would be done. Because if you get a photogenic actor, who flawlessly reads their lines, who never asks questions, and never gets paid, and they attract an audience that generates a good income, well I guess the psychopaths can't help themselves.

You don't want to be in a situation where you don't know if the people influencing your perception of reality are real or bots. It's not a good place to be in, it's extremely shady, and it's not a good world to advocate participating in.

Rage Against the Machine

So, this blog must be destroyed and it must happen soon. Why? I feel that I must purge myself of all traces of Google. The same is true of Microsoft. 

You see I've been scraping by, just barely, by picking up freelance work online, here and there, it comes and goes, pay rate varies, sometimes as low as $12 an hour, sometimes as high as $30 an hour. 

Good thing I had a nest egg, or I'd be living on the streets by now. 

One of the "gigs" I've been supplementing my income from has been as an AI Trainer. I absolutely hate it, but hey, guess it beats slaving away at a fast food restaurant. I've done retail for almost ten years, like twenty years ago, and I'm not going back to that. I actually for awhile considered applying at Target, but after spending some time shopping in the store, and observing the workers, it was like a flashback to my first job ever in the 1990s, and it would be like taking a wrong turn in the wrong direction, a complete nightmare.

I've never worked in a restaurant, or coffee shop, but I've always been curious about it, as long as the food is relatively healthy, and the people somewhat intelligent, because fast food would be like working on a slave plantation, and I'm not a slave. Luckily we're not there yet.

Anyway, getting back to the original topic: Why must this blog be destroyed?

Well, I've had to give my personal information to a lot of different companies lately, all connected either to this computer, a Gmail account or Outlook, and I feel like my privacy is completely compromised. 

So I feel like I need to buy another computer, a used refurbished one, preferably a Lenovo Thinkpad, and install Linux on it, and not use it for accessing any Google or Microsoft services, which means its probably a good idea not to have a blog here anymore.

That's what I'm thinking. 

I don't trust either one of these companies, and I definitely do not trust AI, and can see now that it's being used completely for propaganda purposes, to misinform, to misdirect, and to make people cognitively dissonant and retarded, by pushing meaningless information that is either statistically false, completely fabricated, or copy-pasted nonsense, but is so convincing, because it's like a professional liar, with perfect grammar, and it sounds good, and it's coming from a "credible" source, so people will consider believing it. 

I see the direction this is heading in. They (As in "They Live") want most content created by AI, which means most websites and newspapers, magazines, and television, basically any written text, or script, being pushed as coming from a reputable authoritative source. It's all going to be written by AI. 

Which means the death of the free press, and the death of free speech. I mean you can still talk all you want, write whatever you want, and podcast your deepest and most insightful observations all you want, but if no one else can find it, or if only a few people can find it, well, that's censorship right there. 

It's like an Orwellian nightmare.

A Little Secret

I just want to tell you a little secret. 

But the secret already vanished from my mind. 

I hate AI just as much as I hate 5G, 

Roundup, high-fructose corn syrup, MSG, and TV.

THEY ARE ALL RELATED.

Silicon Valley. The creepers with PhD's. 

Bill Gates. Jack Parsons. The godless, the arrogant, the fake. 

The ugly, the evil, the upside down rulers of this world, 

complicit in the crime of manufacturing consent, 

of hoodwinking the masses into an artificially 

induced state of consciousness resembling sleep. 

Mass produced, self-hypnotically induced: 

Trauma based victims of mind control. 

The sleep sheep. The sheep sleep. 

Try saying that ten times in a roll.

Factory farmed people!

Animal Farm

by George Orwell. 

It's like a documentary. 

They live!

So says the grasshopper in the green room. 

"Soylent Green is People!"
