"No meaning" dovetails perfectly into "no truth, it's all just opinions." Disembodies people, disembodied culture. We *definitely* as a society have been avoiding the topic of what has ensured over the last 3 years.

One friend i have just wants to forgive everyone, and resume dancing at the clubs which were barring her just a year ago for being unjabbed, convinced that her consciousness and that of others like her will simply overcome all the bad stuff, and humanity is going through an awakening. She insists that this is about being optimistic in the face of everything. She also thought the problem was that people got too uptight, not a clue about the real agendas going down.

Someone i used to work with on a garden project today, whom i saw today at my natural foods store in Berkeley, told me that "we had no idea about how corrupt Pfizer was." BULLSHIT, you just didn't care, you were scared into a panic about an invisible virus which in fact has never been proven to exist, and went ahead and got jabbed.

The next shoe? We are hearing a LOT about food. But we're also hearing from people like John Titus about the crisis affecting the global banking system, which manifested itself via the failure of major banks like Silicon Valley Bank in April, and how this could really explode in September, leading to Central Bank Digital Currency, which would of course also involve food. See this,

The blue stripe in the Rainbow Flag stands for heterosexual men? I HEAR THAT! I've been getting targeted for being that ever since the '70s. I have simply given the detractors the finger, and will continue so. I am who i am, get used to it.

You've articulated something very important, about the insidious digitization of not just our lives, but our beings. I have been aware of this and have done my best to resist it, but I know it has affected me. I love that you didn't sugar-coat it or find a comfortable place to stand. I love this, re: the conjunction of Logos and Makemake in Libra: "This is one one version of the essential crisis of our time: that which makes perfect sense mingled with that which makes no sense."

I also want to share something that comes up when you say that the sun seems to hang in one place for a while at the solstice--"think stasis." These lines from T.S. Eliot's Burnt Norton (Four Quartets) have always sounded to me like a way of describing the experience of that momentary stasis and the celestial dance that our sun--and we ourselves--are part of. (I don't vouch for the line breaks--I'm writing it from memory.)

"At the still point of the turning world.

Neither flesh nor fleshless, neither from nor toward,

At the still point, there the dance is.

But do not call it fixity, where past and future are gathered.

Neither movement from nor toward, neither ascent nor decline.

Except for the point, the still point, there would be no dance.

And there is only the dance."
