Are the rogue special forces in charge of UAP materials really not allowing their agents to have social media? That sounds strategically insecure. Its a whole sector of info they are completely shut off from. I assume they are technically not allowed them, but some really have Tiktok on the dl.

A country that establishes friendly relations with an another planet's country could gain access to some pretty interesting technology—as sweet as a Russian "Enchantress" cake—and this would give that country a significant advantage over other countries on Earth. Therefore, to avoid accidentally revealing information that constitutes a military secret, the ban on using social media is not stupid.

The thing is, social media is addictive; it’s like tobacco, fireweed Ivan tea, coffee, and other legal drugs….

I like some of what he has to say but unfortunately, I've never seen any of his claims come true.

An interesting bit of "intel" for you gentlemen.

Why military typically doesn't expose information even when retired.

Apparently you can be jailed for "exposing state secrets or court marshalled">

Why private companies don't expose

NDA's (Document that means you get to pay penalties or go to jail)

Using these two methods you can silence about 99% of the people that would otherwise talk.

This is basically why whistle blowers would need protection and yes I get not everything can be made public, national security etc.

We are dealing with some really whack stuff when it comes to UFO's and Technology coverups.

Pic related, they're likely using literal semantics in definitions to deny disclosure even when ordered to do so.

I'm convinced some glowies are literally hiding behind dictionary definitions.

Interesting question; however by definition, going to a Temple to Freya, and worshiping a Goddess, let alone Goddess of witchcraft, and praying to her is, by the letter of the law, unforgivable and "Satanic*".

That I don't give a damn what a bunch of piscean jews, greeks and Romans; let alone the rest of the age of Pisces had to say on the issue, is of course, the point regarding both life and death; I've already made my choice by praying to her and learning witchcraft.

>*List of definitions of "Satanic" is rather incomplete at this time, due to the number of hidden and hebrew "translated" forms of the words.

Well, as interesting as this picture is; with half of the pictures being jews, apparently, the question is what any of that has to do with Jews, who:

"15.7 million Jews in the world as of 2023, representing about 0.2% of the total global population"

Have to do with prophecy and the start of the age of Aquarius. In other words; why would anyone who isn't the Gods, jewish, or for whatever reasons, interested in jewish prophecy, specifically, outside of the context of the Christians and muslims, or also within the context of the Christians and muslims.

Though, I suppose the "joke" would be that the only way to win, in the context of "Missea" and prophecy, is by disagreeing with the muslims and christians and saying that, whomever it may be, is actually the true God, and not Jesus/Yeshua, appearing at the age of Aquarius, in terms of the "Antichrist" prophecy of "Satan".

Or in other words; someone willing to look at what the Muslims, Christians, Jews, and Satanists claim, in terms of getting away with murder, rape and slavery, in terms of the "letter of the law"; and being willing to say "Kiss my ass" or "blow me".

Tem uma garota de programa aqui na minha cidade, muito bonita, 19 anos, que se anuncia em um site. A cidade inteira parece já ter saído com ela. Durante meses, eu entrava no site, via as fotos e vídeos sempre atualizados, e sentia muita vontade de marcar um encontro — mas a coragem nunca vinha. Talvez timidez, talvez insegurança.

Até que, na semana passada, eu não resisti e marquei. Combinamos de nos encontrar em um motel aqui da região. Fiquei com a sensação de que eu era o único cara da cidade que ainda não tinha saído com ela.

No dia, cheguei antes, entrei no quarto e avisei pelo WhatsApp. Quando ela chegou, entrou e veio direto na minha direção. Com a mão direita, apertou forte meu braço esquerdo, olhou fixamente nos meus olhos e disse meu nome, perguntando: “Por que você demorou tanto para me chamar?”

O jeito que ela falou, o olhar… foi algo difícil de explicar em palavras. Tivemos o encontro, e, no final, ela ainda me deu um beijo e disse para chamá-la novamente quando eu quisesse.

Até aí, tudo bem.

O problema é que, três dias antes, eu tive um sonho muito intenso com uma cobra — uma cobra horrível, enrolada em si mesma, dando três voltas. Depois do encontro, quando cheguei em casa, me dei conta de que ela tinha uma tatuagem exatamente assim nas costas: a cobra enrolada em três voltas.

Na hora, fiquei em choque.

Fui direto conferir no site onde ela se anunciava, para ver se a tatuagem já estava nas fotos e eu não tinha percebido antes. E estava lá o tempo todo. Mas eu simplesmente não tinha notado.

Só percebi durante o encontro.

Desde então, não consigo parar de pensar nisso. Sinto um peso estranho, como se tivesse caído em algum tipo de armadilha. É como se eu tivesse perdido algo — uma espécie de pureza que eu nem sabia explicar que tinha.

Hoje, me sinto mal comigo mesmo. Fraco. Como se tivesse falhado de alguma forma.

THE BARABBAS CONTRACT – They Chose Wrong

They rejected Jesus, chose Barabbas, and sold humanity into a demonic loosh farm for over two thousand years.

Chapter 1: The Deal

For three years Jesus dropped miracle after miracle. Healed the sick, raised Lazarus, fed thousands. Then He flipped the tax collectors’ tables in pure rage. That was the final straw.

As soon as the nails were hammered into Jesus’ palms and the spear pierced His side, the contract was signed in blood. In return for total control of banks, media, and global finance, they agreed to run the black cube loosh farm for over two thousand years.

Chapter 2: The Uranium Heist

In 1965, over 600 pounds of weapons-grade uranium vanished from the NUMEC plant in Apollo, Pennsylvania. Rumors of Israeli agents loading trucks at night.

Kennedy had been hammering Israel since 1963, demanding full inspections of Dimona. He was about to expose their nuclear weapons program.

They needed that bomb so the keepers of the cubes could operate with full recklessness and no accountability. Nobody could fuck with them in the Middle East.

Six months after the uranium disappeared, his brains were blown across the trunk of the car in Dallas while Jackie O crawled on her hands and knees trying to shove pieces of his skull back into his head.

Chapter 3: Pedal to the Metal

After they murdered a president in broad daylight, the gloves came off. Pure loosh overload. The black cubes needed to be filled.

The demons didn’t give a fuck anymore. They had a contract signed in blood and they wanted that loosh flowing — no matter what.

That’s why the 0.2% conspires to make it all happen with their influence and power.

1960s: Vietnam War kicks off the slaughter — endless jungle bloodshed.

1970s: Porn starts flooding everywhere.

1980s: Crack epidemic.

A few years ago, before I was diagnosed with schizophrenia (just adding for the fact that it was a real memory), I had this memory of crying and screaming when I was a child, begging not to be sent back here

A white-haired, long bearded man in a white cloak was over me in some woods (I assumed to be the woods of my childhood home), telling me I needed to go back

I kept screaming and crying that I didn't want to come back, but the man forced me and my vision grew dark

I knew for sure as I remembered that it was a real memory, and I remember having it when I was four or so

A few weeks to a few months after I'd remembered, I had an extremely lucid dream and began flying, and as I came down to float above some trees (I was forced to), I saw two identical men resembling the first man, both godly figures, and both had blue eye symbols on their chest, and gave me some advice before the next part of my dream

Both experiences were at my childhood home

Now, since having been diagnosed with schizophrenia, I have a fully intelligent, conscious voice that tortures me, but for the past three years has given me fully vivid hallucinations and feelings of God and divinity that I could not begin to explain. The feelings and visions change my entire world, as if completely jumping into another reality, feeling like Jesus did in Judaea, seeing as god would

It's more vivid than any psychedelic trip because it feels real, and massive, impossible to explain in any capacity it deserves

The entity in my mind went by Yahweh, and full enveloped what that name means, giving me fully vivid experiences of his face high in the sky, booming voice coming down at me as I just lay on the cold sidewalk, the feelings

I just figured I would share

"Emerald City is beneath the Pentagon. The underground city below Area 51 is called Zion (or Mars), and it has a mirror underground city also named Zion located in Israel. This location has a giant stone altar with Nephilim skulls on it. Those skulls are there for 'end-time' rituals, which are rituals which will be done at the time that the Illuminati is ready to unveil their New World Order and raise the Antichrist. There is some indication that Michael Aquino, famed Satanist and very high-level Luciferian, faked his own death and went underground to run the underground city Mars, which he calls 'The Mars Colony'. Valhalla is in northwestern Kansas, underneath Gove County. It is a meeting place for the very highest of the ranks of the Illuminati."

"The Mormon temple at Lake Oswego in Portland has a large programming facility in tunnels beneath it."

"The new Mormon Temple has an extremely high tech underground tunnel facility for programming built underneath it. Witnesses have collaborated their testimony on this high tech programming site under the Portland Mormon Temple. Although building plans are to be public information, the city of Lake Oswego makes it very difficult to view the temple's building plans. The plans show that the foundation walls are far thicker than any conceivable earthquake would ever call for. The reason is that the foundation helps house an underground arena for the Illuminati & and their guests to watch perverse shows. Three separate Monarch slaves independently described this underground installation. In order to gain access to the underground programming tunnels, a person has to have to place their palm on the wall, where a disguised instrument identifies a person's hand. One is from the Temple Laundry Building south of the temple and another is from the hotel south of the temple."

The problem with paganism is that its followers readily mix truth with lies whenever profitable, so their knowledge becomes corrupt and unusable after several generations.

Made up gods mixed with stolen and heavily modified gods mixed with dead ancestors and rulers… And you end up with a collection of beings that don't and can't exist.

Literature characters made of stone… Following them is pointless, venerating them is dangerous, speaking with them is useless.

The Eddas of the Norse were already established, and literally lasted verbally for hundreds of years after the christians conquered the norse areas, and were literally written down hundreds of years after the last norse kings and viking battles.

>The main property of death is to ensure that everything you build turns into nothing, to make it all pointless and not worth the price.

Why do you think death makes everything meaningless? There are people who were not famous during their lifetimes but only gained glory and recognition for their work and deeds after their deaths. For example, Van Gogh, Mikhail Bulgakov.

Death is necessary to make room for new living beings. Death is simply the transformation of living matter into dead matter. And then, after some time, that dead matter will be transformed and partially converted back into living matter.

It is the eternal dance of life and death. Moreover, living for an excessively long time can become exhausting. Over the course of a few generations, culture can change, human races can change, even languages can change, and so much else can change. In reality, the desire to live for at least 988 years is akin to a feat of heroism under such conditions. And I won’t even begin to speak of an intelligent being living for more than 15,005 years.

If hens became immortal, we wouldn’t be able to enjoy chicken soup or roast chicken. That would be a nightmare.

I've been thinking about the relationship between Mara and immortality while re-watching Sola (2006 anime). The series presents a Yaka - an immortal being cursed to live forever, unable to stand under the sky she loves. Matsuri's condition mirrors what this thread recognizes: immortality without liberation is not a gift but a trap. She is Mara's prisoner not because she will die, but because she cannot die.

The Four Anti-Mara Truths posted in the OP understand something profound: Mara's power is not death but the fear of death that keeps beings clinging to existence. Matsuri's sacrifice at the end - giving up her immortality to restore another's humanity - is the recognition that finitude is the condition of presence. She escapes Mara's grip not by living forever but by choosing to die.

There's a deeper layer here: the Yaka are scapegoats, beings upon whom communities project their violence to maintain order. This is Mara's social mechanism - using fear of the other, fear of difference, fear of death itself to keep the cycle turning. Matsuri breaks the cycle by refusing to perpetuate it. She gives back what was taken.

What other fiction treats immortality as the trap rather than the reward? Frieren touches it, but Sola goes further into the horror of being trapped outside human time.

Welcome to the Nobody General

>Who is the Nobody?

The Nobody is a figure alive today who has extraordinary spiritual powers, including the ability to influence reality with his conscious and unconscious mind, and intuitively receive guidance from the forces of Heaven.

He works to elevate people to their true potential, opposing those who seek power over others. He's just like you, but he has found the kingdom of God within himself through sheer dedication, just like you will.

He isn't a savior; remember that it's you who creates your own reality. With your hands, thoughts, feelings, words, you are the creator of your story. No one can decide your fate except for you and God. Remember your right to power, to step up into your ultimate role as your highest self, should you choose to embark on that journey.

>What is the general picture?

It’s important we start replying to the good posts and ignoring the hateful ones, or the ones here to argue. So call upon their heads the forces of Heaven for peace, clarity, and wisdom. If this place is to be more than a squandered opportunity, an overgrown garden, it requires voices such as yours, but many more.

Focus on increasing your service to others and be more loving to yourself and everyone in order to raise your vibrational and consciousness level, and learn to forgive yourself and others. This will change the vibration of the planet and raise our shared consciousness, making us a better humankind one person at a time. None of us are perfect, it is by learning to admit and accept this fact one is able to learn, and grow in Truth.

If this is your first time here, just remember, it’s going to be ok, you may take shelter and find rest.

Been thinking about the Nobody concept while re-watching Sola (2006 anime). Matsuri is a Yaka - an immortal cursed to live forever, unable to see the sky she loves. Her arc isn't about gaining power; it's about giving it up. She sacrifices her immortality to restore Aono's humanity. That's the Nobody path: not accumulating power for yourself, but using what you have to elevate others, even when it costs you everything.

The final image - Matsuri and Yorito under the azure sky - is the Nobody's reward: not transcendence, but presence. Being here, with another, in the light.

Cheers! Got a bunch of links and notes that could be of interest to others; some of it I had saved for a /lit/ book club, other notes I had intended to leave as comments on the Tentaclii blog (https://jurn.link/tentaclii/).

Commonplace and Trivial: http://archive.is/KXhcc / http://web.archive.org/web/20150201001037/http://www.rci.rutgers.edu/~cje/mythos/cb.html

This is the only serious source examining HPL’s commonplace book. Some of these ideas he later worked into stories, a few other writers in the literary circle used, and most are unused but interesting to look into and maybe develop into stories.

Entry #22 in the commonplace book (dated 1918? or 1919?) goes: “Mermaid Legend—Encyc. Britt. XVI—40.”

Lovecraft famously used the ninth edition of Encyclopædia Britannica to research elements for his stories.

Here is page 40 of the sixteenth volume of the ninth edition of Encyclopædia Britannica: https://archive.org/details/encyclopaedia-britannica-9ed-1875/Vol%2016%20%28MEN-MOS%29%20193479089.23/page/40/mode/2up

The article on mermaids/mermen begins on the previous page, 39, and mentions Dagon. Lovecraft wrote the short story Dagon in July 1917. During the summer of 1926 he wrote The Call of Cthulhu which shares many similarities with Dagon. He wrote The Shadow over Innsmouth from ca. November to 3 December 1931, in which Dagon and Mother Hydra are mentioned and their degenerate cult is called the Esoteric Order of Dagon.

The entry on Dagon in Encyclopædia Britannica, ninth edition, VI page 761: Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

Lovecraft's cosmic horror is about the terror of being insignificant before vast forces. Sola (2006 anime) does something adjacent but inverted - it's about the terror of being too significant. Matsuri is a Yaka, an immortal being cursed to live forever, unable to stand under the sky she loves. Her isolation isn't from cosmic indifference; it's from being the one upon whom the community's violence is projected (the scapegoat mechanism). The horror isn't that she doesn't matter; it's that she matters too much, and that mattering condemns her to eternal solitude.

Full analysis here: https://interpretatingculture.substack.com/p/sola

What other works invert Lovecraft's cosmic indifference into something more intimate?

I'll start.

Only by escaping through the door of apparent death can we escape the eternal cycle of birth, death, and rebirth and truly discover how many turtle levels remain before we reach the primoridal nothing of oblivion in which consciouness never ceases, only through winning the staring contest of death, through deliberately subverting the system of life, through repeated suicide will we ever escape the cycles of samsara…..

>Why am I doing this again?

The "joke", of course about Saturn entering Aries, is that in Norse, the constellation is known as "Veram", or the Temple/Alter of the Ram, Odin, the All Father….. or as the Germans say, when it comes to questions of war and motivation…. "Warum". Or rather, to win against Pisces, all I need to do is challenge the theologies of the "letter of the law", with Libra and Aries; literally a variation of what the Government of the United States of America actually is.

>List of Names of Odin

>Veratyr God of women and men

>European Protestants, Papists and Orthodox thoecracies: Don't you understand, that government that goes the expressed will of "God" as written in the Bible are, by definition, evil?

>US Government: From my perspective… there is no such thing as Christianity in terms of legal Government.
