It's A Deep State Plot

“Deep state plot?”

Y’all need to slow your roll and just ASK….

This was brought to my attention this morning, but there are no details inside the post to show how any of this was determined/concluded.

There is definitely an issue where I keep having to resubscribe to and refollow people.

I am constantly seeing people I know I was following and to whom I know I have subscribed - dear friends - who I am being prompted to subscribe and follow as if I hadn’t already done that several times.

And friends have told me that this has happened to their subscriptions to my publication or that, suddenly, they are not receiving my emails for which they have paid, so they keep going onto my site or page to find them when they have gone missing.

I thought it was likely to be a glitch from back when subscribers and followers were separated into two different categories - the app shows the information differently than it shows up on desktop.

But the author of this post is claiming it is some kind of “sitewide hack” involving “dummy accounts” orchestrated by “the deep state.”

As there is no data within this post showing how this conclusion was drawn, only asserting that three people have discussed and reached the same conclusion, I can’t say whether that sounds like it’s plausible or not as the author has provided no data within the post to support the conclusion or to allow others to test and refute it.

Y’all keep cooking this stuff up - I don’t know why you don’t just ask Mills, ℭ𝔬𝔫𝔰𝔱𝔞𝔟𝔩𝔢 𝔬𝔣 𝔔𝔲𝔞𝔩𝔦𝔞 and Chris Best directly what they think it is instead of speculating on what might/could just be a rumor or some kind of speculation where 2+2 ended up equaling 5 - and then you convinced yourselves 5 was the case instead of just asking, finding out it’s 4, and then finding out it’s being handled or it’s complex and still being researched or whatever.

Stop assuming the worst.

I get that you all have some kind of censorship-induced PTSD from dealing with other platforms that makes you trigger happy about jumping to conclusions, but I promise, guys - the people at Substack are super helpful and kind.

Assume it’s a bug or a glitch before you conclude it’s a “deep state plot” and just ask. 🤣🙏🏻💜💫

New Vocabulary

No.

I was watching a video about the false historical chronology that is being passed off on the masses, and the video was calling the academics who push the obvious mainstream lies “quackademics.”

I thought it was an apt way to describe rigid, arrogant people who have been inflated about their mediocre intelligence their whole lives to brainwash them, through accolades, attention, and other meaningless garbage, into ridiculing others who disagree with them and, as a cherry on top, acquired expensive degrees in utter bullshit for the rote memorization of absolute lies and somehow completely avoided learning true critical thinking skills.

Unfortunately, I fell into the trap of acquiring extremely expensive, prestigious degrees too before I figured out it was all a crock of shit.

So, no, I do not believe that that describes RFK, Jr., at all.

In fact, maybe we can exercise those superior critical thinking skills you think you have, and you can explain to me why Bill Gates, the bastion of public health, is dumpy with bitch tits and RFK, Jr., clearly isn’t.

He must be doing something right.

Maybe it’s something that a bunch of people who profit off of your being fat, sick, and knocking on death’s door don’t want you to know.

You’re supposed to be a good little cog in the wheel, working your trusting, gullible, midwit ass off until you’re 65, all while consuming a metric shit ton of toxins over the course of your life so that it bioaccumulates in your system.

That way, when you retire and you end up with “chronic illness” and “turbo cancer,” blaming all of your aches and pains on “time” and “aging,” all of the wealth you accrued by working your trusting, gullible, midwit ass off until you turned 65, all while consuming yourself into toxic oblivion, has zero generational staying power.

That wealth you hoped to use in retirement and then pass back on to the rest of your family gets drained right back out of you for the privilege of being systemically poisoned by a drug with a 2.1% efficacy rate - which, in layman’s terms, means it doesn’t work.

There goes your life’s work.

There goes that fun retirement you always dreamed of.

There goes any hope of leaving a legacy.

And for what?

An expensive degree, a lifetime of ass breaking work, a life spent bioaccumulating pain and disease causing toxins, all so that you could attempt to ridicule others who are in good health and trying to help others to be in good health too, while you hide behind Bill Gates’s bitch tits and throw stones?

No. Sorry, pumpkin - that’s NOT what “quackademic” means.

If you wanted validation for your bullshit, you’re barking up the wrong girl.

People Will Argue About Anything

There Are No Private Corporations In China

Coping for what? What do you think I care so deeply about for which I would need to “cope?”

It’s a statement of fact about the way China operates.

Here, we have distinctions among sectors. They do not. The government owns everything.

So, when we, as individuals and as corporations, allow access to our IP, whether the Chinese national in question has signed an NDA/non-compete or not, it is made clear to them by their state that any IP they are shown is to be reported to their state and that they are under every obligation to maintain loyalty to their state by doing so.

This does not jive with the way business is conducted in the West. The two systems do not play well together. It’s a massive conflict of interest.

Weekend Update

The White Knight Returns….

Sasha Latypova, it’s entirely possible that you shifted back to a timeline where the White Knight was never lost.

My cousin has this happen with the placement of her keys frequently. She lives alone. No one is moving her keys but other versions of herself across timelines.

I’ve had titles of classic rock songs up and change on me.

In some timelines, there are neighborhoods within NYC that do not exist in other timelines that no one from my timeline remembers.

This one is in constant flux - I must cross back and forth across this one quite a bit.

Restaurants have been here and disappeared that I should have known about but didn’t.

It’s all temporal jitter as your consciousness hops over to another timeline to facilitate coming into alignment with an experience you asked the universe to give to you.

There are infinitely many versions of you who are experiencing infinitely many versions of your life simultaneously.

The bleed over or bleed through moments are remnants or fragments that broke continuity for you during the shifting process.

These are usually unnoticeable because the universe tends to do a really good job of maintaining continuity so that we will maintain willing suspension of disbelief (and not lose our minds trying to rectify the discrepancies - that would be less than ideal).

If you remember choosing a new pathway recently or doing any kind of a manifestation, meditation, or prayer exercise, this is likely the result of that.

Something similar to your story happened to one of my best friends.

He was at his girlfriend’s house.

I was on the phone with him, and he was jovially recalling this odd play argument the two of them had had a few nights earlier in which he told her that she had the silverware in the wrong drawer.

Everyone keeps it in the top drawer.

He teased her about having it in the second drawer.

He opens the second drawer expecting to find the silverware in the second drawer, but it isn’t there.

He calls out to her and asks if she moved the silverware.

She says, “What? It’s in the top drawer, where it’s always been.”

He asks, “Always? You’re screwing with me. It was in the second drawer.”

She adheres to her point that it’s always been in the first.

She’s completely sincere about this.

He’s flabbergasted.

She has zero recollection of the conversation about the silverware drawers.

Not a prankster or a gaslighter.

Just honestly puzzled.

And he’s whispering into the phone at me, spooked as all hell, “Did I just fucking switch timelines again?! Fuck….”
