AFT 3.0 Storm Birds

Image
  The soldiers lined along the edge of the valley, at attention, their stanchions firmly planted in the ground. But what was most striking was the bonfires which lined the surrounding cliffs.  Perhaps it was an echo of the indigenous, who had lit bonfires on the headlands to communicate with the tribes up and down the coast. Or to alert danger, as they had done when the ghost ships arrived, filled with those strangely dressed ghosts with their firesticks; as frightened or bewildered as they may have been, they did not realise, could not have conceived, that their world was coming to an end. That the genocides past, present and future, were about to be visited upon them.  And that the comfortable guilt of the white middle classes which would grow and festoon in the centuries beyond could provide no comfort whatsoever. But more like, as he gazed around the rim of those echo chambers, those sharp valleys, as he saw the bonfires burning on the cliffs, many located in the exac...

AFT 2.0 Full Circle

Image
  The entire story had come full circle. There was the newly minted Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, meeting with vaccine-profiteer-in-chief Bill Gates at Kirribilli House. Living well in a 44 bedroom mansion in Canberra and one of Sydney's finer residences with views straight across to the Opera House, Albanese appeared to have no shame at prosecuting the agendas of the Davos billionaires, vaccines and climate change. Indeed now, the Australian government, obviously embarrassed at the complete failure of their Covid hysteria, the shocking mismanagement which had done so much harm to the country, now barely mentioned the so-called "plandemic", Covid-19, while switching seamlessly to fear mongering on climate.  Their blizzard of bullshit alienated them from the general population, discredited them with every feeble gesture and absurd utterance, but never mind, they regarded themselves as untouchable, outside the realm of consequence, much less accountability. Both men wore...

AFT: 1.0

Image
  The jumbled images still made little sense, not that any of it mattered much. This stitch in time was just that, a tiny stitch, even if it transcended centuries and involved the fate of an entire nation, or even epoch. What would  it  look  like in a million years? Less than a blink in time; less than creatures seeking in the dark. Jacinda Ardern, the Prime Minister of New Zealand, resigned, and as one commentator observed under a video of an entire crowd erupting in cheers: "Such a cop-out. All jumping ship so they don't be held accountable for their dealings, and mind you still getting paid by tax dollars." These were the beginnings and the ends; all folding into one.  If you were expecting peace, or some sort of cosmic bliss, there was none.  Appear near when you are far, appear far when you are near. All war was deception. This was war.  Some times, many times, the ancient wisdoms had far more to tell us than the blizzard of BS which now car...

  MAINSTREAM NEWS THE NEW DAILY The World Health Organisation has declared the monkeypox outbreak a ‘global health emergency’ as cases surge around the world and not enough is known about how it is spreading. The declaration — the highest alert that can be issued — came after its second emergency meeting and as confirmed cases since May reached 16,000 in 74 countries, with five deaths. As of July 19, Australia had reported 41 confirmed or probable cases of monkeypox, with most in NSW (22) and Victoria (15). WHO chief Dr Tedros Ghebreyesus took the decision into his own hands after the committee was unable to reach consensus and he warned there was risk of more international spread. It was the first time the chief of the United Nations health agency has taken such an action. Declaring a global emergency means the monkeypox outbreak is an “extraordinary event” that could spill into more countries and requires a coordinated global response. “In short, we have an outbreak that has spre...
