This has been droning on..(Perhaps a War Room Analysis)

 In recent news headlines, mysterious air drones have been spotted over several American cities.  Some say this goes as far back as November, but the origin is a mystery to witnesses and nations.  They have been spotted flying over city areas, military installations, and other places of notice or high interest.

If this is the wild west of drone air space, I think there should be regulations, and perhaps even a lawful interference to stop them from flying.  It is kind of strange how worried the U.S. officials were when a weather balloon flew over the continent of North America just almost a year ago.  It was called the Chinese Weather Balloon Incident(Jan28-Feb4/2023).  I believe many Nato countries denounced China for this.  If a spy balloon can exist, there should be more cause to worry or interfere with the flight paths of these air drones, which you cannot deny, is the most possible national threat the USA has encountered since North Korea completed its own intercontinental ballistics program.  While some drones may be controlled by copycat artists, daily there is a mass wave of drones coming from somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean that go into the night sky over New Jersey.  They have not been revealed for their purpose.  If you were unaware of the past ten years of Modern Warfare, air drones have been used on the front line like in the War of Ukraine.

So what would I do, if I was director of the FBI?  I would deduce the origin by reasoning.  The source is either internal or from a foreign country.  If it's foreign, it is clear that no friendly country would dare invade American airspace and do it in a worrisome overtone of the night skies. As well no enemy country would dare attack the USA in human-armed combat, they would likely do it by drone invasion if they had the resources to undertake the task, so that is a likely possibility.  If its origin is internal, it would only be a group with the money and infrastructure to output these drones, as they cannot be identified as coming from any known manufacturer.  The drones also have signal jamming and can cause non-mystery-originating drones to go flightless and crash.  Maybe Elon, or Bezos?  I don't think US domestic terrorists propriet a drone manufacturing plant and for what, are they delivering drugs?  Would be a laughable conclusion if it were somehow the mafia, but I doubt they would dare invade the night skies, they usually don't like to be noticed; they try to stay out of the news!  Could it be one of the American billionaires?  Maybe, but I doubt they would continue to direct this operation from the shadows for much longer considering the reaction of late by the public and American officials.

Would an enemy country be doing this to subjugate Americans to worry?  Just less than a month ago, after Biden authorized Ukraine to use long-range missiles against Russian installations deep within Russian territory(Nov17/2023), Putin went on his broadcast system and made a threat to America, that he would get back at them and they would never see it coming(Nov19/2023).  For years Putin has been making threats, but did he finally knuckle down.  This drone invasion is a project of years in the making, and with their current purpose in modern warfare, this could be a scare tactic or perhaps the beginning of incrementally rising nightmares.  Drones can be made to do anything, and the scariest possibility is that these drones may have been produced for warfare.  

I say they should line up snipers along the coastline, equip them with night visions and spotters, and take out the drones while they are still flying over the ocean.  If they were made by a foreign country, the recovery of salvaged drones would reveal what materials these drones are made from, whether they have nationality markings(that's if they wanted to openly declare war), and a warning to that country to step down or face consistent reaction.  And finally, they need to recover a drone so that my friend Akane can finally stop telling people its humans from the future that have gone back in time.

The Instrument

 The body is an instrument
With notes and bends
And increments

Tune your mind
With the time of day
Adjust to a schedule
Making room for play

The body is an instrument
Be the wind
Feel
Rise and descend

It was difficult at the start
The road was hard
But perseverance and will
Made dreams become real

Now imagination and focus
Redeem the purpose
From the tip of the tongue
There’s new songs to be sung

The body is an instrument
Bring ease and please
With harmonic dissonance

With touch and style
To dare display
As personality and wit
Lead the way
Listen loud
Before you think 
Do you want to know
The right way?
To live with reason
Continuously breathin'
And perfect your art
How do you say?
Build a path
Do the math
Execute with precision
Having made a decision
Make the tuning
In essence soothing
And live to be right
Like there is no other way

The body is an instrument
Get up to a start
The differences part
There are so many tunings
Find the path that is soothing
Learn to love it
And live to play

Is Narcissism an illness of progression?

 Generations now; have grown up in front of screens or monitors that entertain and educate us daily. Mediums can be integrated into our wide range of activities and simultaneously exist as spaces through which we exchange information.  A phone, tablet, and PC/MAC can all be used to view pictures, and have cameras attached.  We write, chat, and text people across the World Wide Web, and with the internet, whichever point of access you rely on is probably the first place of inquiry when you seek knowledge.  Though a great tool, it led to the demise of entire industries because they failed to revolutionize at the onset of the internet.  The music industry, the film industry, physical media distribution, and phone service business models(Taxi), are just examples.  Relics of ancient times...

But what does that have to do with the title of this post? 

Well, that's simple!  I'm putting words in your mouth to help fabricate a conclusion for later!

Things got easier for people in terms of managing day-to-day free time.  Almost everybody has time for more than one hobby.  I have had many different hobbies, from chess, running, swimming, and weight training, to now where I balance between film, video games, and writing, but all share the same thread of insanity, that concludes in self-improvement or self-betterment as the benefit of completing the process.  

Why is this insane you ask?  That is because you are never doing anything for the dumbfuck of it anymore!  I read comic books because I like reading them, or I hope to collect key issues and have real trade value down the line?  I only watch films that are highly rated because they are less likely to waste my time or do I want to witness cinema at its finest?  I run every day because it's the bare minimum I can do to stay in shape or to improve my cardio?  There are two reasons for any one thing, and while one may seem more practical, the second always has a tint of something.. narcissistic.  But that's okay.

I saw a joke on Facebook the other day that was abstractly funny, but most people in the comments were unaware of it merely falling for the puzzle as bait.  In the form of a meme, it read 'Most People In Society Are Narcissistic', followed by a puzzle of 13 disjointed squares overlapping each other, some within others, and another headline reading 'Count the Squares'.  It is common to have a puzzle-to-reward ratio of return 1:1.  After completing the puzzle, what could you expect, perhaps a deep dive into the cauldron of C.G. Jung interpolating people's different types and narcissistic realities?  Or was the meme poorly cooked combining a real puzzle with some windy point about narcissism?  Would people readily compare their results with an answer sheet to hopefully pat themselves on the back?  Maybe this moment right there, the self-congratulatory pat yourself on the back for completing a puzzle on the internet that's framed for smart people to react to!  'You did it so you too must be smart!'  Maybe that is what they meant by the point on narcissism...  Lol.

And that's exactly what it is.  The education system has subtly lied here and there, whether it's just the teacher, or the direction of the government itself, about the students' permanent road to self-betterment.  Everything in the school curriculum has a puzzle-to-reward ratio, that is the way of the education system.  They have tried to say it's science, and most probably believe them.  Whether it be original sin, or trying to fit 'in', people have always got something to work on.  

How is self-improvement narcissistic then?

Any and all self-improvement can only be proven through empiricism, which in attaining the value sought after, one has achieved the physical form reflective of their worth.  It can be pitiable that someone would want to have better fitness to be more attractive, but you can see that this person wants to change not for health reasons, but to have an appearance they are more comfortable with.  

In conclusion, the point of this rant has been to demystify narcissists.  I wanted to show that at its very core, there is a fabrication of personal interests resting within our decision-making processes embedded in our everyday lifestyles, and its prevalence in our society exists today due to vast forms of media and Western man's hobby-built ethos.

Could this be the 1984 Orwell poeticized?

Hearing Pierre Pollievre talk about Socialists as the issue in Canada, I can't help but really notice fascism in other countries. Can Pierre call Trudeau a fascist when he has better stats on the election trail than all other leaders? Not really much of a rigged fascist system here in Canada, if Trudeau were Putin, Pollievre would have been taken out long ago, but this is Canada, so we don't worry about that kind of controversy here. Our conspiracy is regarding the price of milk, or petrol dependencies. Canada is not under Authoritarian Control unless there is a state of martial law, and that can happen sometimes. Don't get misled by this PC party misinformation. Now we can watch North Korean State TV and compare it to our own CBC. I wonder if fear and control are more important in one brand as opposed to the other?




Love it or hate it, did you pay to see it?

  What is the difference between the film lover and a film hater today ?  Are they one in the same ?  Just one person to the next respect...
