TOPIC:

I've heard this and things like this from people like you again and again and again and again literally for OVER two decades.

And, of course, it NEVER occurs.

It's like the poor 'Tards who said "Niburu (/Planet X/whatever) is coming! It will be here any day. It will be here next month. It will be here within a few months. It will be here sometime this year... or next year.... and then we are DOOMED," for YEARS, and, of course, it never occurred. And most probably never will. And most of them are STILL going on about that. And/or have moved on to other issues.

I know enough about human psychology that these types of things are problematic, more so for some people than others.
Of course, EVERYONE says and thinks and believes that they would NEVER join a cult, or a cult would NEVER "get them", or they would NEVER "lose sight of what it real, and true, and factual, and reality-based", etc., etc., etc.
But EVERYONE is susceptible to these types of emotional and mental failings. NO ONE is "that strong".
Although most people think they are. But they are very, very wrong.

And the ones who are not cognizant of it, or are in denial about it, or won't accept it, they are usually the first to fall.

When I was hip deep in the 9/11 Truth and Justice Movement, and then the GeoEngineering Aerosol Spraying Movement, I would continuously warn the people I worked with about this. Tell them to BE CAREFUL. Because it sneaks up on you, and then, "suddenly", you are lost. And it is VERY difficult to "find your way back".

I saw some of the most intelligent, well-meaning, relatively emotionally and mentally stable people I've ever known, some good friends, fall one by one. And they never recovered. To this day. Which is Beyond SAD.

Some of them will eventually be like the old men you see who drive around in old broken down pickups with signs plastered all over them warning people about "The Gubmint" and "The End" and "Doomsday" and all the other hyper-paranoid and related issues that catch their fancy that consumes their lives up to the end. (I've seen these people around for MANY decades)

There are so many of these types of issues now. Flat Earth. New World Order. And on and on and on.
And that includes the Q-Anon, the White Nationalists and other racists groups, that end up causing people to
commit acts of Sedition and Insurrection against the United States, when they THINK and BELIEVE
(oh so wrongly) they are "The Ultimate Patriots".

And the Internet and "Social Media" is a force multiplier and making it all so much worse now.

Like I said, you are most likely lost beyond recovery or redemption at this point.
But if I can help just one person not fall so deep down the rabbit hole that they lose themselves,
then that is better than nothing. Or at least get some people to QUESTION what people are saying and
try harder to use their Objectivity, and Logic, and Critical Thinking, and not be too swayed by "bad things"
that can hurt them. (and their family, and friends, and society, etc.)

Talk about a sad-assed epidemic if not pandemic that has been going on for decades now

You're suffering from normalcy bias.

Don't prepare then, just carry on as if nothing has changed.
But when your tummy is empty and your bank account is empty, you will end up just like the rest the lemmings and will do anything and everything just for something to eat and more importantly, drink.

You could have prevented all that but you can't see the very things that are unfolding in your country and around the world at this very moment. You have blinkers on.

No.
I DO NOT "suffer from Normalcy Bias". Not even close.
In fact, FAR from it.

I "prepare", because I'm not stupid, ignorant, or clueless.
Because literally anything could happen at any time.
Which is why the pandemic did not really affect me.
I have been a "Survivalist" (as much as I can) since before there were modern day "Preppers".
(I call them "Preppies" --- like I am not a Star Trek Trekkie, or even a Trekker, I am a Trekkist).

BUT, I am NOT an hyper-paranoid cult-influenced person with a persecution complex
and other unfortunate psychological tendencies and failings who has lost his way and
is overly biased with psychological issues associated with these many issues.
I have fought VERY hard to not let that happen to me and have succeeded to a high degree.

I've "been through the gauntlet" multiple times and come out the other side relatively unscathed.
As I mentioned, sadly unlike too many of my friends and acquaintances and other people I know.

COULD the "Shit Hit The Fan"? Sure. At almost ANY time for a WIDE variety of reasons.
But it most likely will not, as History has taught us time and again, and especially not NOW.

And especially not because a dozen egregiously RICH WHITE men sitting around a table in a dark,
smoke-filled room, wringing their hands and cackling insanely, are Puppet Mastering our world
like demi-gods on Earth.
Or ANYTHING similar to that.

Talk about Crazy Talk.

Of course, if you live in a "First World" country, especially the United States, you are much more likely
to be "okay" than too many other places around the planet. And if you are "white" (and male), you
also will do pretty well most of the time, as well. (more so in some locations than others)

Sadly, it doesn't really matter. Because, due to EXTREME environmental destruction and associated
problems, we will be lucky if there are many people living on Planet Earth much paste 2050, if not sooner.
I will be VERY surprised if that is not the case. I could be wrong, but probably not.
And, other than a mass insanity as we are currently seeing and experiencing, and some people "acting out"
negatively due to that, human beings won't have much of a hand in our final demise except what we have
done to date for all of the many reasons we have done them. (which was not consciously orchestrated, it is
simply a side-effect of extreme greed (from top to bottom), uncaring attitudes about much of anything,
and an extreme lack of compassion, caring, empathy, goodness, and common decency, across the board)

Well I wish you good luck.
But you will soon realise that calamity is coming to the world very soon, and you better be prepared. In fact, it has already started with Covid-19! That was just the beginning.
Don't want to derail this thread any further.

I agree with your sentiments.

It's so funny when people think in New Zealand that our spike in deaths is due to covid when we were one of the very few countries in the world to go the elimination route meaning that we had zero covid.  We locked down our borders which for an island nation is easier to do.  We had quarantine hotels so 100% of passengers who were lucky enough to fly into the country had to stay 2 weeks in their rooms and had to test negative on their way out.  So covid can't be blamed for the increase in deaths which happened after the vaccine rollout.  We've been locked down since August 2021, mandated masks everywhere and they've only just eased crowd gatherings.  Prior to this unvaccinated were banned from society including
church attendance, restaurants even getting a hair cut.  So even with all these restrictions the death rate still rose, didn't eventually stop covid from getting into the community however deaths came after the rollout which was August last year, we didn't have covid rampant in the community until a full 5 to 6 months later but deaths were already on the rise prior to this.

When my brother came from California a month ago he said it still felt like March 2020 here with all the mask wearing and restrictions and now our wonderful scientist, notice how I use the singular "scientist" since he's the only government appointed scientist for the entire country, he now wants us to start locking down and isolating for seasonal flu too.  So not just isolate for 7 to 10 days with covid but also flu.  So you could end up getting both and losing a good few weeks.  No wonder no one wants to work anymore.  So used to being locked down.  I'm sure this won't hurt our economy in any shape or form.  I'm waiting for when we lock down for seasonal allergies.

So I haven't been on here much as my dad's in hospital with covid at the moment.  Full isolation, it'll be 11 days before I finally get to see him.  The isolation part is the hardest on their recovery as they're locked in the same room for days on end.  Our hospitals are busy due to the vaccine mandates still in place.  Our government would rather choose chaos and mass strain on the poor staff there than to allow unvaccinated staff back in to relieve the pressure on the health system.  It's insane.  They are stressed out so I helped on the first and only day they let me in until they isolated him.  All of the staff I spoke to already had covid so it's amazing to me they all got covid anyway even though they're all jabbed and boosted and yet the unvaccinated pose this imaginary risk.  Our government is creating the chaos with no end in sight.  I'm sure with the centralisation of our health system things will only get worse.  You can already see things becoming like Venezuela here.  Socialised medicine has it's benefits but when it comes to life and death matters, you can see its pitfalls.  Best to become
your own doctor and try your best to look after your health since there may not be a health system to rely on should you ever need it.

I hope everyone is keeping well.  Keep posting your updates.   How's things in Australia?  Mandates still active there too?
 

You apparently do not understand the concept of Breakthrough Infections.
You are getting what most of the rest of the world got, just delayed, because
you were able to isolate to such a degree. Similarly with Australia.
Nothing "evil" or whatever to see here. (more likely than not)

They eased the restrictions in America, and now there is yet another wave.
So they are talking about requiring masks again in California, like that is going to
work or do anything, because people are too stupid, ignorant, clueless, and
self-destructive to care about themselves and others. (most of those people are
Benedict Donald trump supporters and ONCE-gop GQP "republican" 'conservative' "idiots",
to be nice about it)

At least not as many people are dying or getting really sick now, and not very many
in the hospitals, or the ICUs.

I will most likely wear a mask, try to Social Distance, and self-isolate
as much as possible, for the rest of my life, +/-.

Because People.

you probably meant PLAN-DEMIA not epidemic??

Hello stu77000. I'm sorry to read your journal about your dad in the hospital, alone. Your life in New Zealand sounds like an ongoing challenge to live with restrictions, practically and emotionally. And it seems you're under a great deal of stress as well, seeing the damage to freedom in social interactions.
If it's helpful in some way, I don't see how saying things like "calamity is coming to the world very soon" is legitimate when no details or evidence of what you declare in those words is present with it. There are plans to continue to take away our freedom, but at the same time, there's a silent collapsing of those power structures, in a parade of utter arrogance revealing the silent weapons that are used. Hidden in an artificial virus and a syringe.

As a researcher and informant, active since 1996, diving deep into rabbit holes, there's one thing making it very difficult to know the reality of circumstances in remote parts of the world, due to an enormous manipulation of journalism, intense censorship, and make-belief reports, based on fear propaganda, the wish to start wars, to start hatred and bickering between people. On top of all that there are false flag events, distractions, attempts to start WWIII

That masquerade is an obvious strategy visible in all mainstream media sources, where much communication is drowning under the sauce of sensationalism and weaponizing of fear. It's advised to use common sense, and not add to that Merry-Go-Round circus, see what I mean? The Trojan horses gallop until the machinery goes crazy. To me, the global turmoil related to Ukraine is similar to the great battle in The Lord of the Rings, and even parts of the Bible book Revelations show up with a symbolic description of the times we're living in now. Many indigenous tribes have left a similar prophecy, using symbols.

All human manifestations based on abuse of power and life, are exposed in the dawn of awakening that is happening on planet Earth. It's what I'm witnessing. Don't believe my words, try to find your own evidence and pillars of truth for your own foundation, so that you can stand strong. Astronomers know that we've entered a new zone in our Galaxy, also called the Photon Belt. The visionaries of indigenous tribes, such as the Hopi and the Mayan priests, were able to look deeper. They know/knew, that life on planet Earth is transformed in many different ways when our Solar System moves into the Photon Belt.

New brooms sweep clean, we've got to clean up our mess, and at the same time, we may begin to realize that all that matters, pun intended, has a spiritual origin. Before you build a home, an idea and building plan is needed, you can't reverse that procedure, is it? And that's how we, each of us, can begin to realize that our physical bodies are a creation of our spiritual being, on a non-material level first, before we began to appear in our human form in the womb. 

As I see it, that consciousness is the toolbox ready to be opened, so that we can restore our original state of being, in an awakening where those who don't choose that path will fight with fangs and claws. They're the ones out of touch with their spiritual origin, only relying on the display of power used to control, destruct, and suppress. This is comparable with Sauron's tower and the dungeons where abominations of life forms were created. Know that all force used with an intent to destruct, and control, will fall by its own doing, for the laws of life don't tolerate the destruction and control of life. Freedom of expression is a law of nature, also in humanity. As I perceive this time, we're invited to commit ourselves to clear up our mess, internally, and as a result... externally. We create our own reality by looking through glasses holding our belief system, our prejudices, and our stuckness in the mindfuck of our own making.

Sorry for the delay posting these results,I've been busy trying to be one step ahead of most, selling my house to get out of debt, in preparation for the looming financial crisis.

Nothing much to report blood work wise.  Results are below.

Haven't had a booster yet (even though mandated). Tested + on a RAT test and got a 4 month exemption which is still current.  Also had the flu last week.  Not bad just an annoying running nose.
