Protagonist Bill Harford is out of place at a mansion masquerade ball in Eyes Wide Shut (1999)

sort of relishing in the rabbit hole of Eyes Wide Shut fanaticism after a viewing last night.

Watercolor sketches Experience quiet moments of Vermont through my watercolor sketches while supporting a necessary cause. Empty parking lots, rusted downspouts, golden hour hitting a weathered building. I'll share new work weekly via email as I develop this practice.CASAN welcomes asylum seekers in northwestern Vermont, providing financial support and connections to legal, medical, and other services while they await work permits and financial independence. Funds from this fundraiser an emergency legal fund for legal representation for the families they assist.

Friends. I’m participating in an art fundraiser again that supports #vermont asylum seeking families. Sign up to get fresh watercolors via email a few times per week during april. 🙏🏻✊🏻🎨

pleasantly surprised to see the meditation app the newest dense discovery recommends, the way, is a product of Henry Shukman. his memoir, the only spiritual book i read last year, stuck with me.

its accounts his path to zen mastery through the lense of an accomplished writer poet.

Yes, shoulders drop, a weight is set down, but now I have a VERY big bundle of new threads of interests to follow. All fun stuff. New but old conspiracies, more occult: runes, tarot, absurdist art, pre-ww2 genocides, rocket engineering, war profiteering deep-cuts, then connecting it all to epstein.

Siiiiigh, relief. The hardship of Gravity's Rainbow is over. Rarely did I "lose myself" in the reading, as it required such attention to it's windings and references far beyond me. No the author demands an active reading, which strains and drains and pains.

Reality is Breaking - Charles Eisenstein The Epstein files do not represent a scandal to be managed.

“Right now we are vulnerable to hasty substitutes for the collapsing old story that offer temporary relief from the bewilderment and vertigo of the space between.”

aaand who’s credited on the wikipedia page for drawing the public’s attention to the cartel? none other than our own Tommy P.

Gravity’s Rainbow is journalism.

Phoebus cartel - Wikipedia

the more i slog, the more book gives.

today, it’s learning of the cartel responsible for limiting the lifespan of lightbulbs. the gross international coordination increases this stories smarmy factor.

When researchers say it’s more expensive to means test than to simply provide benefits, they’re not kidding!
