widgets (I definitely agree some dreams at least have a connection to real life. I still remember a dream about being held captive underground by devil worshippers, where people weren't even allowed to think a thought against those in charge!

I didn't believe in ghosts previously, but like you say, pretty much will agree that it is demons now. I am sure people have real experiences - but where they might consider the entities to be benign (which I think the word ghost implies in English), in reality, the entities are probably demonic.

Ha! You don't need forgiving for missing subtle clever input. Sometimes, the best subtle clever input is when I don't even realise myself!

I don't really keep track of coronaviruses, except for the sake of mocking the fear porn. I don't actually believe in the virus theory of disease. For example, did you know that no virus has ever been isolated (in the true sense of the word, using an electron microscope to prove) and subsequently been proven to cause the disease with which it has been associated? There may well have been some nefarious nano-tech dispersed by the military, but I don't believe that sickness is ever caused by "viruses").

gadgets (Your dream sounds like where society is heading in our above ground world. It makes me think about our thoughts and even private conversations. People joke that they can sometimes just think about something and then it will show up online. Probably coincidence or maybe they forgot they had looked it up, but even so it's still eerie how it seems "they" are listening to us. The guy who does my ground transportation to the airport was telling me that he used to work with stuff like that and he told his sister-in-law that our phones "listen" to what we are saying. She didn't believe him. He told her to sit her phone down and talk to him about any topic. So she did, she talked to him about orange juice. Then he told her to pick it back up and look at it. She did and saw that she was getting suggestions/ads concerning orange juice.

I don't think any "ghosts" or "aliens" are benign. They are worse the Whangdoodles!

I did not know that no virus has ever been isolated. Actually, I'm not very knowledgeable in that area. It wouldn't surprise me, though, that the government would disperse something. I believe there is nefarious things going on and technology being worked on that would blow our minds if we knew just some of what they are doing or conjuring up.)

apparatus (Yeah, I had that dream when I was a child, but it's almost not science fiction now to talk about our thoughts being read. Phones definitely "listen" to us, but I often wonder just how far they go with their "listening" - is it just sight and sound, 'cause like people joke, it's like they are listening to our thoughts!!!

Lol. I definitely don't think ghosts are benign, either. So's I prefer to refer to them as demons, although people in the world may have a more sympathetic view toward them until they realise this is what they are.

I was blown away with the virus stuff - I found out about it 5 or so years ago, but it really was interesting for the covid saga. It's sort of like evolution all over again - a whole scientific discipline based on nothing but imagination, with a dash of pseudo-science thrown in.)

mechanism (I used to work with a guy who told me that his wife worked with cell phone technology. She'd tell him that he wouldn't believe the advancement they've made. They have cell phone technology that is years advanced from what we currently use. In just half of my life, technology has moved incredibly fast.

Maybe one of these days they will be able to just pick one of us out on a computer screen, hit a button, and then we are sick with some fatal illness. Or boom, we have a heart attack all the sudden. I was just at the hospital (not for me, for my dad) and I noticed a lot of people in the emergency room looked quite well. It makes me wonder if a lot of it is in our mind. A friend of mine introduced this idea to me (and she was definitely not into strange stories). But, she believed that people can "make" themselves ill even to the point of disabled just by constantly thinking themselves to be ill. The more I observe people, the more it makes sense. Add thought technology into that and it would be an interesting ordeal.)

contraption (I watched something by an ex-Navy seal turned interviewer, and someone he was interviewing said we would be blown away - not literally, metaphorically! - if we knew what was in our technology now. Things to enable them to listen to us and track us, if they wanted to, and I don't think some of these even required power.

I'm not sure if most people make themselves ill, but I'm definitely sure so many people stay ill because they won't do anything to make themselves better. So many times, I've tried to tell people if they just tried one thing or another, but unless I'm wearing a white coat (and am working in a hospital! ) they don't want to hear it!)

apparatus (If only we could see what is going on behind the scenes. I can only imagine. Did you ever watch Conspiracy Theory with Jessie Ventura? Whatever one might think about that show, it gives a person something to ponder. And it was at least entertaining.

I agree with you and think that is my friend probably meant. We all get ill at some point with some illness, but so many people don't take positive actions to recover and stay well. I'm sorry people don't listen to your wisdom! If you had your lab coat on, that would just distract them! )

appurtenances (I think when we watch movies, we are often shown some of the technologies. I think I watched parts of the Conspiracy Theory - I don't remember the show, but do remember Jessie Ventura.

I do prefer a simpler life, though. It's nice not to have to worry about people reading one's thoughts, or destroying one's helicopter from a manufactured static discharge, or having one's house burned via laser because one painted the roof a colour other than blue...)

accoutrements (Great word! I haven't been acquainted with it before!

Yes! I do believe that movies show us technology...and also a lot of other things. And movies and shows social engineer us. I have no doubt about that. They sway the populace in whatever way they want with popular shows, movies, music, etc. And it works!

I am definitely into the simple life. My phone doesn't even have data lol. I have found I just don't really need data on my phone - I know, I am probably the rare person on Earth that doesn't! I use my laptop for internet purposes. I only use my phone for talking and rarely texting. I mostly have texting for travel purposes [ground transportation and flight updates].)

appendage (So too is accoutrements a good word. I even struggle to pronounce it.

Yeah, I hate the social engineering in movies and television. That is part of the reason I do like the older shows - things were simpler, funnier, more wholesome and just generally better. There was social engineering then, also, but not the extreme, unnatural stuff!

I love that you don't have data on your phone. A heart after my own, in that regard. I like my phone to be a phone, and nothing else. I had one such phone once, but had to give it up after it became unsupported even on the network.

Thanks for your encouraging reactions the other day, also. When I feel strongly about something, I sometimes comment, but then wonder if I should have said anything at all. When people like you post encouraging reactions, it makes me think I should have said something. )

addendum (I also have trouble pronouncing accoutrements. There are some words I can say in my head, but then when I say them out loud they sometimes come out sounding like a mess lol

I am very much into older shows and movies than newer stuff. I was in the waiting room of the hospital and seen a newer show on the tv. It was terrible! I left and went for a walk. Much more calming.

I am tickled by your views on phones with data. I thought I was the only one who felt that way!

I wish more people thought as you do! You are rare. I noticed your input shortly after I got to this site. I thought, now here is an individual who is critically thinking and that felt so refreshing to see!)

appendix (Yeah. Sometimes, the social engineering is too sick or embarrassing for me to deal with. I hate all the token sodomites appearing in movies now.

Ha. Lol. I think you're just saying that to be nice? (But I'm pleased if you really thought so!) Obviously the same applies to you also.)

extension (A friend of mine [who has passed on now] spent her last days having nothing else she could do but watch tv. She said she was surprised at how much the increase of LGBT stuff had taken place in tv shows over the time she was watching tv. I'm glad I don't watch tv.

Haha, no. I'm not just being nice. The chieftess is never "nice" lol. Your input stood/stands out to me. Wisdom is a treasure, greater than actual treasure. I think you are wise!)

prolongation (Yeah. Even in historical shows, where people would have been basically gaolled or at least beaten up for that sort of behaviour, yet the TV producers will add it in to try to normalise it.

There are some sick things going on in the world. I can be like a camel with TV. I will go without it for a while, then when there's a plane to catch or an opportunity, I'll watch a fair bit at once.

Heh. You seem like a nice chieftess to me. Even if you did defenestrate all those Whangdoodles! Thanks for your compliments!
)

stretching (I have noticed that about historical shows and movies. I feel like a lot of the Civil War shows/movies are one sided.

I tend to watch yt videos about whatever topic I'm interested in (often that is true crime). I might engage in tv time in a waiting area just to see what people are being fed these days. Here is something I really really don't want to admit, but I watched that new Barbie movie to see what they are feeding people. Awful...good grief, I barely could get through the first minute of it. But, it was an eye opener about what they are feeding the populace. Horrible

I am only nice to those who are deserving lol )

exercising (I think lots of the war movies are one-sided. History is usually written by the winners, afterall. ;-) I did like Clint Eastwood's The Outlaw Josey Wales, though.

Lol. So you watched the new Barbie movie? You did well to get through it, if it's as bad as you indicate (and I can believe it!) With a review like that, though, I doubt I'll ever be watching it, except under emergency conditions! I do like some yt videos also when I'm interested in a topic, but I find these often can only cover the tip of an issue or they will be censored.

I'm pleased that you consider me one of the deserving, but I'm probably not! However, I can accept that I might a little deserving if you are comparing me to the disgusting, obnoxious, evil Whangdoodles you have been so masterfully smiting!)

lunges (I hate lunges, but I like squats. Even so, I was so bored waiting at the hospital the other day I did a bunch of lunges lol

What I really did not like about the Barbie movie is the message it sent out concerning men. Maybe it's because I'm a traditionalist, but I find it alarming the message they put into people's minds about the role of men. They've been doing this to women for a long time too (probably why there aren't a lot of women who can make a homemade biscuit anymore). Anyway, I feel that men should be leaders of the household. Movies like Barbie put men in an unfavorable light.

You are deserving! The chieftess has spoken! And I'm thinking Barbies are worse than the Whangdoodles )

squats (You probably are really fit if you do lunges when you are bored!

More and more, I'm finding I'm too different from the masses to even enjoy the same type of movies as they. Definitely I don't like the movies that normalises weak, effeminate men, or similarly strong, masculine women. Like you say, it's definitely propaganda, but the populace is lapping it up and acting it out. I learned recently some of the satanic deities are transgender, so the whole transgender agenda makes sense from that point of view - trying to mutilate mankind into the images of their perverted demons.

Thank you for speaking, Chieftess. And you might be right about Barbies - perhaps we should extend the defenestration process to Whangdoodles and Barbies? )

punches (Punches are another preferred exercise. Curls also. But, I'm certainly no Linda Hamilton [particularly when she was in Terminator 2]! Probably not even Belle Starr. Btw, that's Belle Starr's statue in my pic that I'm standing next to. This doesn't mean I condone outlaws though lol.

Yes, that Baphomet thing that satanist like to worship has physical features of male and female. Eww. Oh, I also tried to watch the Stepford Wives remake after watching Barbie. I couldn't get through that movie. I think I may have been able to get through 1/3 of it. Ghastly. Women are tricked into thinking that making women equal to men is good for them. I don't believe so. I believe men and women are equal, but we are not equal in our roles. There is no way I can physically do the same thing that men do. Also, I don't understand why women would want their unique feminine characteristics to be lost. Being feminine is not a weakness. It's a strength in it's own right and in its unique way. Being a feminist on the other hand is another story

Your thoughts are admirable! Now, let's go defenestrating in the land of Barbie!)

kicks (I don't even know what curls are. Unless they are things in some women's hair, but that wouldn't fit in with what you said about punches! Ah - Linda Hamilton is Sarah Connor? I didn't realise. She was pretty cool to raise John, but despite his best efforts, it seems mankind is determined to create the rise of the machines. Or perhaps not all mankind? Perhaps just a few jerks like Bill Gates, but they have so much ill-gotten gains its easy for them to make like there's millions of 'em? I didn't know who Belle Star was, but its nice to know whose statue is in the picture! I don't condone outlaws for the sake of it, but I think many people are made outlaws simply for standing up to unjust governments, or driven to become outlaws by the same. I can relate to those sort of people, although I'm not an outlaw - yet (the vaxxine mandates made me close to becoming one, so the upcoming vaxx mandates will probably push me over the edge! ) Often, there will be a kind or honourable side to such people, despite their crimes. For example, they will show mercy even though it may put them at risk of capture.

I liked the story about the guy who decapitated the Baphomet statue. That's a kind of outlaw I have much respect for. Although perhaps he has been acquitted? I didn't keep up with it. I agree that men and women are equal, in different ways. In some ways, men are like sunlight, and women like moonlight. It would be a terrible place if the moon started giving sunlight also, because how would we keep cool at night, and also rest when it was so bright? Feminists have a lot to answer for in my opinion, and have had an overall detrimental effect on women's lives (not to mention everyone else's). I think of them mostly as unwitting Communists, similar to the BLM crowd and likeminded groups, but I think feminists are generally smarter than supporters of these.

That said, in times past and even today, some people have been terribly cruel whether due to gender or race or something else. :| So can understand people being defensive and supporting such groups to a degree, also.

I defenestrated several Barbies today - a pregnant-Ken barbie, a Bells-palsey Barbie (they think Barbie is so stupid she will dose up on vaccines?) and a WHO Barbie that was trying to get all the other Barbies to kill their Barbie cattle, sell their Barbie cars and eat Barbie bugs. Needless to say, you won't be seeing them advertised or on the shelves anymore! )
