I’m going to begin this with a reminder that the work of this blog is:
- clearing nonBPM nonphysical units (in a sense, doing the shadow work of the world - see also here), including doing spirit rescues,
and
- BPM strengthening of BPM units - some nonphysical, some incarnated people . . . and one of, if not the, best ways that is done is strengthening people's connection with their own Higher Self (which is possibly not what they interpret as their conscience).
Also:
Black Lives Matter! Be Anti-Racist, Anti-Sexist, and Actively Inclusive in ALL
Areas.
The Climate Crisis is real, urgent and existential!
The Pandemic is Real, and Vaccinations save lives. Stay
safe - wash your hands, wear a face mask in
public if prudent to do so, and follow informed medical advice.
We also need to be more human being rather than human doing.
Having made those points, here are some links that you, Dear Reader, may find of interest or value (articles by others unless stated otherwise):
- “why we forget that most people are good” (Mark Manson);
- some thoughts on “custodians of culture” who use the term “we don’t do that here”;
- “what is ‘time activism’ – and why do we desperately need it?”;
- from Medium this week: some of the ways that racism also hurts white people; “the interminable hell of LinkedIn fortune cookie wisdom”;
- from my favourite Druid blogger: “when a God wants you to violate your ethics” (hint: not all is as the title suggests ... );
- this week’s “afterlife report” by the Zammits.
In preparation for tomorrow’s psychic weather report, I do a weekly summary of news links - every one of which is an opportunity to do the work of this blog, which I outlined at the start of this post. Before I get in to that, a CONTENT WARNING - some of the news links are about upsetting, disturbing or triggering events & attitudes. Seek competent help - including professional - if you need it. Content shown in green (which may be only part of a news story) is about what is generally considered “good news”, but personal history may still make such events triggering. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander readers are advised that linked articles may contains names and/or images of deceased people. Reader caution is recommended. For anyone distressed by anything in this post, or for any other reason considering seeking support, resources are available in Australia here, here, and here. In other nations, you will have to do an Internet search using terms such as “mental health support - <your nation>” (which, for instance, may lead to this, this, and this, in the USA, or this, this, and this, in France [biased towards English-language - my apologies]).
The news post can be accessed at:
One part of the post covers natural and other disasters, which are always an excellent opportunity to do the work of this blog, so I will copy that section here:
- on NATURAL and OTHER DISASTERS (noting Article 1(3) of the UN Charter) including COVID-19 AND OTHER PANDEMICS:
- “global progress towards disaster risk management has been weak and insufficient, putting at risk the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals” (UN); a major cyclone (WP) has devastated parts of South Asia, causing many deaths and injuries (TND), particularly amongst Rohingya refugees (F24) - see also here (UN); floods in Somalia have displaced 200,000 people (Goobjoog News) - see also here (TG), and also in Italy (TG); bushfires in Canada (Edmonton Journal); a fatal hostel fire in New Zealand (TG) - see also here (TND), here (ABC); a bus crash has caused traumatic injuries to children in Australia (TND); a hippo attack has capsized a boat in Malawi, leading to several deaths (ABC); dozens are missing after a Chinese vessel has capsized (F24); the ongoing impact of chronic disease (UN); one million people are at risk of cholera (F24);
Another part lists a few key points from the news, which are also an excellent opportunity to do the work of this blog, so I will also copy that section here:
- some positive perspectives and actions this week, but also some incompetence/ineptness and amathia (particularly around technology), and the contest against the forces of evil which are using the far right as their tool of oppression, much as the far right as using the vulnerable as their tool of oppression - especially in the USA;

Finally, remember: we need to be more human being rather than human doing.
