Time Anxiety

An excellent interview in which Terence explains some of the characteristics of time that some of you may find helpful as we experience the acceleration of its qualities. There's discussion of Terence's controversial and 'logos' inspired use of the I Ching in here thought I find the cross parallels between Terence's Timewave Zero and Clif High's Webbot absolutely gripping.

The Lost Interview

Terence McKenna's last interview in Hawaii by @erik_davis. Terence is dying of brain cancer so it's subdued and wistful but still essential listening.

Bill Ryan & Avalon

It may well be the case that I will return to this some day with embarrassment. I originally set out to learn about quantum mechanics and mysticism but try as I might I couldn't avoid the UFO question without conceding that there are way too many credible accounts of experiences to ignore without saddling oneself unnecessarily with narrow mindedness. I can almost see a comparative studies course in alien life and religion. The Temple Mount UFO thing a couple of months ago struck me as being vague enough to tick the check box of UFO, military Psyops or religious phenomena. But absolutely not a weather balloon, satellite or aeroplane. Check for yourself at the end of my overly long Exopolitics post to form your own opinion. There's more angles of the event on Youtube since then too.

The fun thing about 21st century exopolitics study is the sheer scale and diverisity of the topic which ranges coherently from back engineered repressed technology to ruling elites and masonic deal making. The dirty costly energy question is the sore thumb that sticks out in that last scenario. It's almost an embarrassment that we're entirely reliant on dead plants to move about yet at the other end of the scale we're punching holes in the universe at CERN. The only credible answer for that is the corporations or military industrial complex are holding the goods back. Fossil energies are brilliant for manipulating an entire species. Zero point energies are to say the least a disruption to that business model that tears the quarterly report sheet to shreds (are you listening advertising?). Any confusion why we don't have those technologies yet isn't hard to fathom though you should Google 'repressed technology' to establish that for yourself.

And so I'm publishing the Bill Ryan follow up interview to the one I published the other day. I find his manner thoughtful, constructive and well informed in a manner that is almost impossible to emulate without being authentic. But you again, you need to to do the legwork yourself. Time and again I find the most vocal 'debunkers' have done the least open minded review of the available information.

Charles Bukowski

I finished off Bukowski's Post Office yesterday. It's as near flawless a book as I've ever read and I greatly enjoyed rereading it. Aside from Bukowski's signature simplicity which in some ways is close to Orwell's loathing of unnecessary complex words the commentary is very much one of mechanized, process driven 'scientific process' America. Where clocking in and clocking out, and how to stand during coffee breaks leads to an extraordinary goverment agency regulating the most trivial of tasks through nauseous bureaucracy.

I'm always struck how bureaucrats are never fingered for having no other option than to create more rules to justify their existence. The only option as I see it, is to fire them not keep them busy. Indeed their job function should include a larger bonus the quicker they can achieve their goal and lose their jobs. In an ideal world bureaucrats would be a free floating army like the Chinese migrant workers assembling as swat teams when anything became so dysfunctional that change was needed without the commitment to regulating that change ad infinitum.

I laughed loud more than once rereading the following passage where he is reminded of the awesome security benefits in working for the Post Office

Security? You could get security in jail. Three squares and no rent to pay, no utilities, no income tax, no child support. No license plate fees. No traffic tickets. No drunk driving raps. No losses at the race track. Free medical attention. Comradeship with those with similar interests. Church. Roundeye. Free burial.

Johan Galtung on "The Fall of the US Empire"

Good points made on how in the long term it paid huge dividends for the British and Soviet Union to relinquish their empires. Not that you'll see that sort of discussion in American media other than the admirable Democracy Now.

The Experiment

Most of what the interviewee "Charles" has to say tallies with other sources I've reviewed, but like every quasi poacher turned gamekeeper interview I've seen from CIA drug runners to super soldiers or masonic ritualists their agenda is questionable, gritted with bias and spiked with disinformation . That doesn't mean it's not worth watching and Bill the interviewer does an admirable job of interviewing a psychopath who in some quarters would be labelled a constructive sociopath. Clueless losers not withstanding.

Secrets

Oddly enough after my MESSENGER and Mercury Rising posts I discovered that NASA commissioned astronaut Stuart Atkinson to write a poem about Mercury. It's on the NASA MESSENGER website and to say the least is intriguing.
