Yesterday we reported on the outrage-inducing case of Jeanette Breen, the midwife who, instead of getting a promotion and a big bonus, is now being criminally fined for not giving children and infants vaccines but giving them holistic remedies instead. She might also have faked a few vaccine records, like around 1,500 of them, but let us not pick at the threads. A Daily Mail headline from this week, just to remind you:
As far as I can tell, Jeanette thinks natural remedies are just as good as, if not better than, big pharma injections. So she gave her kids tea tree oil or magnet bracelets or whatever and sent in forms to the state of New York confirming her patients had been “vaccinated.” All her parents knew exactly what was going on.
Put plainly, Jeanette helped thousands of parents avoid vaccinating their kids, so New York has fined her enough to put her out of midwifing for good. Fortunately for her — but not her parents — Jeanette is close to retirement anyway.
Today we will show the Establishment they can tear down quiet heroes like Jeanette but we will build them right back up again. The C&C Army has enjoyed some well-deserved R&R for a month or two but it’s time to get back on the front lines. Today, we will all work together to effortlessly send a message to all the deranged lunatics clamoring for this brave midwife’s punishment. If you’re a new reader, here’s how it works: click this link and donate any affordable amount (however small) so long as it ends in a $2, like $2, $12, $22, $222, and so forth.
(This is a GiveSendGo platform, so the minimum donation ending in a $2 is $12. If you can’t easily afford $12, sit this one out.)
It takes less than a minute to pitch in. So please do it right now and then read today’s post. Here’s the link again. Go ahead and knock it out, you will feel great about it. And leave an encouraging message to Jeanette while you’re at it.
It works because everyone helps. Even you. Working together, each chipping in a little bit, we wield the power of an Army. You’ll see!
One of the most helpful pieces of advice I heard when I was younger was that people tend to remember not what you said but rather how you made them feel. All of this, in turn, led me to conclude that when writing, the state of mind you hold when you write is often the most important thing. ...
I’ve been involved in numerous alternative groups dedicated to trying to fix something wrong with the world. In each case, I’ve seen that if the hearts of the group can stay open, the group is general successful, whereas if they begin to close down and everyone gives into negativity or despair, a toxic dynamic takes over the group and quickly fragments it.
For example, once the mandates were dropped and there was no longer a unifying threat to unite everyone behind, I saw multiple groups protesting the COVID-19 response devolve into drama and gossip which was then followed by the majority of the group leaving. This was a huge shame because those groups provided the vital community organizing to prevent something similar to the corrupt COVID-19 response from happening again. Conversely, all the successful organizers I’ve ever spoken to have emphasized that they prioritize having a heart centered focus in what they do from the start so negativity can’t fracture their group (as most of them are well aware this is one of the most common methods outsiders use to neutralize any group which threatens the status quo). ...
I believe one of the most important reason why someone should not do a half-baked job on a task they’d set their minds on performing is because doing so steals the most precious thing in life (their time on Earth) away from them. For example, one of the things I’ve always greatly disliked about our economy is how many of the jobs in it incentivize you doing a very mediocre job and pay you for your time and compliance rather than your results. As a result, I frequently meet individuals near the end of their lives who lament the fact most of their life was spent trying to get through the day rather than on doing thing they found interesting or meaningful.
I hear you. There is unimaginable cruelty in the world. There have been wars where women and children have been killed and politicians (Bill Richardson and Madeleine Albright etc.) supported the killings. Ukraine and Gaza wars don't make sense either. This is how the world is and it will be going forward and we are likely better off because of it
and this does sound awful but there is cruelty or more cruelty (Sharia?).

As I am getting older, I realize that life has been very short indeed. People spend a lot of their time working a career and less time in retirement, doesn't make sense.

I might blur out his face and name out of it and post it though.
Sounds good.
He's not gay, but I went on a hike with him in Montana and he wanted me to take this photo. I've known him since I was five. His older brothers were ruthless. So he does weird shit. I'm like whatever. So I made this birthday flyer. Lava Lake hike in Montana just north of Big Sky. He's on the lake.
I vent here but this was a good thread to start Gabbar. Just because one can come across as negative doesn't mean they're not fun or positive or goofy.
Negative people are fine; sociopaths/psychopaths are not since they are unpredictable, imo.
This small-town farmer paid people's pharmacy bills for the past decade, and no one knew about it until after he passed away
I have good friends that keep me in check. We do have our fun from time to time. I drink too much when on vacation. Drinking with others and being safe is fun. I'm a child at heart. We play ping pong every week on Wednesdays. Have a few beers, they smoke, I'm done with that at this point but it doesn't bother me. It's fun. We're all around 40. Most are bachelors and one is actually gay. We don't get rowdy just shoot the shit and pong.
