Masks Don’t Work

Ian Miller has compiled thousands of charts comparing populations with varying mask dictates and consistently found that masking policy plays no statistical part in how Covid-19 affects people.

The lies of politicians, beaurocrats, and the corporate media are tearing people apart and causing conflict where it need not be.

Hear what Miller has to say, buy his book, and don’t worry, we are out here maskless, ready to welcome you home.

Screw the Governor, Screw Masks, Screw Mandates, and #DoNotComply

Delaware’s Governor has given businesses less than 24 hours to enforce an arbitrary and useless indoor mask mandate.

Masks have done nothing to make people healthier. They have done nothing to prevent dis-ease.

Take a look at comparative charts culled from real world data about mask mandates in Tom Woods’s Covid Charts CNN Forgot.

The Governor has once again overstepped his authority and declared an unlawful regulation of business on faulty grounds.

Many believed that if we followed the Governor’s rules that this would not happen again. If we do not defy these orders, arbitrary mandates will never cease to flow from the offices of tiny tyrants.

365 Devotionals: Disapproval

Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.
-Galatians 1:10

I’m getting, at least, half of this right.

I was told I should use my energy to be honest with my children about the threat they pose to their loved ones.

And what if I shared that “truth”? What happens when a loved one gets sick and dies, as is inevitable in a life full of loving support? How do my sons not feel responsible for that death? How could I curse them with a guilt that I know too well? A guilt they may already feel over their mother’s passing?

I will not gain the approval of someone who says my sons are dangerous carriers of disease. Does that get me closer to God? Further from the prince of lies?

In other madness-of-our-times news, a friend is watching her husband slip away in a hospital that won’t let her, nor their children, say what they need to say to him at his bedside.

I remember the moments between hopelessness and resolution, discovering in my heart that I would never see my wife’s smile again. I was by her side the entire time. We felt each other in that room when our souls said, Goodbye.

Those are some of the most important moments in my life. God let me watch her rise to Heaven. I needed that vision when I was alone with her mortal coil. I needed that vision to balance the horrors of that day.

The cruelty to separate people in times of trauma and loss is incalculable. My anger at supporters of Lockdown reddens my eyes to tears. I would burn that place down trying to get in. I would say Fuck You to the whole world.

I wouldn’t please anyone. That’s my overcorrection.

Martin Luther King Jr. taught to love the oppressor, as Jesus teaches us to love our neighbor. My heart struggles to grow big enough and my mind strains under the weight of that injunction.

The Power of Truth

A few months ago the bad guys tried to marginalize the Lab Leak Theory concerning the source of Covid-19. Brave investigators pursued the story and podcasters like Joe Rogan and Tom Woods let them speak publicly.

With enough people fighting censorship by governments, social media giants, and their lackey parrots, the truth was forced into spotlight. This exposed the cracks in a narrative tyranny that seemed invincible.

The fight will never end. Truth will always be unpopular and the forces behind false narratives will always be resourced. However, truth has some fantastic warriors on its side. Woods and Rogan are two of many, but their shows are consistently a place for open discussion and unpopular opinions.

This week, their guests tackled the Lab Leak Theory and the broader response to Covid-19. Woods is a much shorter show, but I encourage you to invest the time to listen to both of these conversations.

Logical Measures

Human responses to fear can’t be understood in logical terms, but humans are only logical when it comes to what they are motivated to achieve. “Safety” is as much perceived as one’s place in the social order as it is in the complicated hierarchy of actual threats. There’s a lot of truth to that. I see it in my own close friend group. We can take certain risks others can’t because we know we have a solid team behind us. When the TV tells you the team won’t be there if you don’t follow instructions, well…you get 2020 and 2021 and 2022 and…

Drug overdose deaths top 100,000 annually for the first time, driven by fentanyl, CDC data show – CNN

Lockdowns shut down narcotic, alcohol, and grief support groups while protecting liquor stores and celebrating isolation. I personally felt, and continue to feel, the pressure on my own grief and sobriety journeys. Pretending that Lockdown wouldn’t have grave consequences is no longer possible.

This epidemic is driven by the irresponsibility of pharmaceutical companies and the medical community. Continuing to turn to them for answers is folly.

And all for what? More reported Covid-19 deaths this year than last? What has the high price of Lockdown measures bought us?

Dear Delaware Art Museum,

Demanding that I consume a pharmaceutical product means that I will not pay for a membership for the first time in ten years.

You have shut your doors to one of your most loyal families. I am heartbroken at this rejection due to private health decisions.

I’ve been trying for weeks to compose an articulate response to a policy that discriminates against the very communities you have been claiming to champion.

I remain too emotional to formulate convincing arguments. I am sad and angry that I do not feel welcome at my favorite labyrinth or the tree dedicated to my late wife.

Edit: To be clear, the sculpture garden is open to all. However, I do not feel welcome. The vax mandate is an extreme position and I do not feel comfortable associating with this organization in any way.

There is Only Today

I watched a man die through text and email updates. I didn’t know him well, but he was one of the important educators in my sons’ lives.

I hated every update because my heart told me what was inevitable. I proudly refer to my optimism as “stupid” and “irrational,” but I do not ignore reality when the path is crystal clear. The news of his ailment and hospital admission mirrored my journey at my wife’s side as she faded from life.

Like Mary, and many of us, he was disconnected from his body. Long before hospital intervention I am sure he was using multiple pharmaceuticals. By design, they assist us in ignoring what our bodies are telling us.

Much like grief and difficult emotions, physical discomfort is something most of us do not want to deal with. Whether through intervention or mental tricks (e.g., “I guess this is what getting old feels like.”), we don’t listen to ourselves. We miss the signals that communicate important information. 

I’m not blaming Mary or this gentleman. It took a tragedy for me to get here. Five years ago you wouldn’t be able to find a person that didn’t think Mary or I was healthy. Alcohol, pharmaceuticals, coffee, and a signifigant portion of our eating was slowly killing us. It weakened Mary enough to be vulnerable. It could have been me, maybe a couple years later due to my age, genetics, and physical activity, but had I stayed in that routine, I would have not survived the flu at 47.

No one but me could have seen any of that. Keeping up appearances and self medicating hid my vulnerabilities, even from myself.

If you end up in a hospital, you’re not going to come out healthier. Maybe you’ll come out alive, but getting healthy will be a longer mental, physical, and spiritual road after a hospital stay.

There is only today. Today you can opt not to take the aspirin, reach out to that healer you follow on Instagram, or simply give yourself 15 minutes of quiet to feel what parts of your body are asking for attention. It is a type of prayer, ask God for guidance. Reconnecting with your body is not easy or fun. It is okay to ask for help. God wants you to be healthy and happy because He loves you. Accept that love and then give some of it back to yourself.

Confused as Fuck

Wait. What? The NYT is confused AF in this article.

Mostly they show data indicating that social behavior has nothing to do with Covid spread. I hope you look at it. Masks, distancing, Lockdowns, and vaccines don’t appear on Covid’s calendar. It continues to affect those who are vulnerable. Make a change today to make yourself less vulnerable.

Regardless of the good news, the author commits to the state of panic in his later expository.

200K possibly saved by choosing the vaccines? We were told 600K had died before the election, before vaccines were available (don’t forget, these are still “Trump’s vaccines” according to Biden/Harris).

Ask yourself, am I as confused as this NYT writer? Does the data not fit the narrative? How much more autonomy am I willing to secede? How much life am I willing to put on hold?

You don’t get those months back, you don’t get today back. Spend it wisely, passionately, and lovingly.
