Moths & Caterpillars

~ MKW Publishing ~ 3 Comments

It’s an exciting time in the garden. Moat of the butterflies gave moved on, but caterpillars are here. Mostly cabbage whites, large and small at first.

But in the last few days have spotted 3 grey dagger moth caterpillars on the little cherry tree.

And glanced over the little raspberry bush and spotted a rusty tussock!

Was also treated to a square spot rustic moth that appeared under the back door when opened. Looks like Autumn will be a busy one for moths.

While We Wait

~ MKW Publishing ~ 1 Comment

And while you wait and hope for better, worse comes marching right up into your face.

People shouldn’t be waiting for help, or rescue in the bigger scheme of things, or even on a small level really, an expectation that can lead to disappointment, and death in some cases.

A move to make students homeless a week before term starts is a further display of how little the establishment think of people. Especially ones who are apparently studying for the future, and are looking to go about the normal routine of learning and living somewhere. If they hadn’t noticed, every age group is being targeted in various ways. So, what exactly are they going to university for? To study for that future they are deconstructing around you? Or perhaps it’s because you have to try and carry on, to get on and still work towards a future, because it will get here whether you want it to or not. But taking part in strange set up is not going to make it easier, they like to make you think its fine, but isn’t. And if the next predicted lockdowns are coming, they might be glad to not be stuck in student accommodation. But really it just looks like a super disruptor move, to show favouritism again at your expense. Literally and metaphorically.

People have been conditioned to wait; this I understand. To expect the authorities to sort themselves out, to sort out society and make everything right, to be there in an emergency and to fix what is broken. But why is it really? Holding Us Back looked at that idea, of that we very strangely have a childish mechanism in us when it comes to authority, especially in the Westernised countries, and certain others too. Where they want you to think you are helpless, or useless, or of limited capacity, so they can convince you that you need parenting. ‘Give us your money and we’ll do it for you, don’t worry, you can trust us’. But like a narcissistic, controlling and obsessive parent, they don’t want you to notice and sure as shit don’t want you ever gaining independence from that. Makes me wonder if that was really what the fight for independence was all about in the states all those years ago. That it wasn’t a fight to be free of England, it was a fight to be free of the insidious system of control. And we are told they won, which means something else happened, and maybe they did initially – and it was the land of the free as we were once told. But that wasn’t ever going to be allowed to remain, and perhaps that is what the civil war was about, to get it back in order and make sure it becomes the leading breeding ground for the military power moves to follow in the upcoming centuries. Either way, it’s not going well over there now either.

Yet people are still sort of waiting for the government to do something to help, when they are the ones who have caused it all. They are the ones who have pulled the rug out from everyone’s feet, and are laughing at us all on the floor looking up and going what the hell. But instead of getting up and punching them in the face, metaphorically, we stay on the ground waiting for them to help us up and put down a new rug, where we can comfortably stand and go back to living and getting on. Well, I’m pretty sure we can safely say at this point, there is no rug. There is no helping hand to get you up, in fact, there is going to be periodic kicks to make sure you don’t get up, which will then change into permanent damage and then you can’t get up. But don’t worry, the government will be there to let you have food and water when they decide, unless they can’t be bothered or forget about you, of course. And that’s why it appears important for them to be able to cut off your lifelines and livelihood, and ability thereafter to access ‘society’. To threaten and exclude you into compliance, in a more extreme and aggressive way than we have previously seen, but using individual and collective fear triggers as a weapon. Exploiting people’s weakness and vulnerabilities, having spent decades working everyone out and placing things for later use, reference or to their advantage planned long in advance. Hoping to stitch up the bag around you before you notice the drawstrings getting tighter.

Everyone is waiting though, not all for the government, some are waiting for other people. Wondering when they will notice that the ones they run to for help, are the ones kicking them in the face. The ones they are expecting to come good and stop them drowning are the very same ones who are holding them underwater. A rearrangement of expectation is needed perhaps, to understand how society is actually constructed and what it requires of you to be part of it, because it isn’t free and a given right as everyone thinks. It takes something of you and from you in order to ‘provide and protect’, and what it requires just seemed to go up a notch or two…

It Follows A Path

~ MKW Publishing ~ Leave a comment

I’m not sure how to lead into this one, so will just lay out the feature idea. Theorising that the rise in what we would call different sexual identities, frustrations and alternate genders is a consequence. Not just of society as I might have thought, of suppression of ‘natural instincts’ and forced family structure etc. With extra exposure to more extreme ideas and interests. And perhaps that can go some way to explain some circumstances.

However, the rise in what appears to be very confused and somewhat extreme behaviour has caught my attention, as it has with many others. And if it were indeed just consenting adults, doing consenting adult things, however deviant they may be, would not be of such a concern. But it is the involvement of minors and grooming of young to people to also be part of the ‘expression’ they have decided needs to be on show. To be validated and have an audience for that validation, with it seems a constant need for that to be reaffirmed at every turn, a conditioning of sorts. There have been a number of articles I have written around the strange sexual landscape towards children, The Face Of A Clown – In Story Town and A Slippery Slope being the main ones, although it does pop up as a running theme here and there in others. Once only a dark undertone within certain industries and corners of society, but now seemingly more out in the open every day. A sinister deviant section of society looking to thoroughly corrupt the next generation, having done it to previous ones in various ways.

But there is an added strangeness occurring alongside it, where there are many people turning their back on sexuality altogether, or don’t have any feeling towards to it, which is what this piece really is about. Not the ones who are obsessed, and want everything in life to be geared around their own personal pleasure, no, this is about the others. Who seem to be becoming the opposite, who are partially or completely disengaged from desire, and in my usual way I wondered, is it a ‘natural’ thing to occur, as speculated in The Beautiful Mice, given the conditions of society we face? Or, is a natural consequence of the extra conditions placed within that, namely, pharmaceuticals. There has been much talk of late about SSRI’s and other medications for depression, anxiety and other mental health disorders. I have already delved into the idea they have been labelling people for years to make money, encouraging people to also do it to themselves, covered in It’s A Set Up and it seems many others have noticed too. But alongside there being suggestion that some of these anti-psychotic drugs actually cause suicidal and psychotic episodes, it seems there may be a lot more being switched off than at first appeared. Or at least if people have been trying to raise an alarm, they have been quietly dismissed or ignored altogether.

So, further along from More Than Pain Gets Killed and An Error, But A Big One, it seems that there has been another consequence of some of this medications, for some people. They have lost their sexual drive, desire, or ability to feel attachment or satisfaction. So I wonder if that has led into the recent ‘changes’ we appear to be witnessing in society, coupled with more input and exposure to all sorts of concepts and imagery. Being assimilated into a thought process that is not functioning correctly. And it is quite probable, as they say, that extreme sexual deviance was always there, but was it so in the numbers we see today? Another thing that they are trying to normalise, but is that being helped along by people being encouraged into that extreme version of a human. With environmental conditions being set so that you create the frustration, not just physical, but chemically enhanced so it takes on a darker, more sinister edge as there is something beyond just an average human need occurring.

It is a hampered and stunted version, emotionally disrupted and mentally corrupted being nurtured. Some turn that in on themselves and will find destructive ways to try and express the turmoil, and others, well they turn their attention to others to ‘relieve their turmoil’. Perhaps. There are also those who notice the detachment, the shutting down of normal feelings and reactions and will stop, knowing something isn’t right. But not everyone is able to spot it, or ends up being herded along by others really believing it is there to help, or they are the problem that needs fixing. And this is where I think they are covering the main issue, with genders and identities and trying to create a very convoluted society, because then it’s much easier for the real issue to get overlooked or lost because people were afraid to ask why. Why are so many switched off to themselves, to life, and to each other? Is it simply just because we all got busy, or distracted by entertainment and keeping up with the technological demands of society? Or is it something else as well, behind it all, keeping it at the dampened and frustrated level they require to create a muted version of what we were meant to be. I wonder…
