Post No. 2,699 - Some interesting reading/viewing [Note: Content Warning - links to distressing reports on some topics. Reader discretion is advised]

Note: CONTENT WARNING - some of this content is about upsetting, disturbing or triggering events & attitudes. Seek competent help - including professional - if you need it. 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]), or perhaps try https://www.befrienders.org/. 

Here are some llinks that might of interest or value:

• “The Light Gate – Medium Jenny Lea – Medium, Tarot, Past Lives, Channelling”   https://www.youtube.com/live/QdyQmVXJPHE?si=zIX8m34NJnkA13DX   This is the best programme on mediumship (including “blending”), other dimensions and interactions with those, time / the simultaneity of time, reincarnation, spirit rescue, etc. that I have ever come across. Watch it - I will be recommending this as strongly and widely as I can  
  

• “Hexing Without Baneful Magic Karma, Energy, And The Evil Eye In Italian Folk Magic”   https://youtu.be/8iS1I3-elhI?si=G1Np9MSHRy5pqvqw   This is another absolutely brilliant video from this channel, and I agree wholeheartedly with almost everything, and agree with the rest  
  

• “Caring for Each Other”   https://thorncoyle.beehiiv.com/p/caring   I particularly like the samples of practical acts   

• “‘Work needs rest and rest takes work’: fatigue specialist Vincent Deary on coping with life”   https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2024/jan/21/work-needs-rest-and-rest-takes-work-fatigue-specialist-vincent-deary-on-coping-with-life   Yes. Yes, they do ...   

• “Existential Lessons of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s Depression”   https://aninjusticemag.com/existential-lessons-of-martin-luther-king-jr-s-depression-86991874d328   “Personal Perspective: “Depression doesn’t discriminate” misses the point of Dr. King’s experience   These possibilities ... detract from the political trauma that must have upended Dr. King’s philosophical development, leading to transformations that entailed depression, but weren’t necessarily treatable by clinical means.   We cannot forget that Dr. King spent 15 years witnessing firsthand that there was no “best” way to debunk or disarm white supremacy. A doctorate didn’t help. Devout Christianity didn’t help. Colorblindness didn’t help. Disavowing armed struggle didn’t help. Invoking the innocence of children and the frailty of the elderly didn’t help”   An excellent article  

• this week’s “afterlife report” by the  Zammits (see here for zoom meeting opportunities):   https://www.victorzammit.com/January26th2024/  
  

• my recent posts on my political blog:  
• From the news on:   society generally, and broader issues,   the climate crisis, environmental issues, and nuclear threats/issues,   human rights and humanitarian aid,   the war in West Asia,   and   politics & democracy, and international affairs;
  
  
• “More on utilisation rates ... and productivity / undermining progressive measures”   https://politicalmusingsofkayleen.blogspot.com/2024/01/more-on-utilisation-rates-and.html   
  

• from YouTube:

• “Contactees Inspiring Positive Change”   https://youtube.com/shorts/v-8usIz-R1I?si=6m2S-XRwtllExogz  
  
  
• “Sometimes The Best You Can Do Is To Just Survive”   https://youtu.be/RiWm_ICBC6w?si=wcRQ2f319UdrTZTX   from a channel I respect: the trick is to know whether your life is in the thrive or survive phase, and adjust your way of life accordingly  
  
  
• “10 Life-changing SELF CARE HABITS for the Highly Sensitive Person”   https://youtu.be/eZPLsfOI-nE?si=vUMTHDdDI-8CGaVu   I have some reservations about a couple of these, but not strongly enough to object - you can make up your own mind, Dear Reader, just do reflect deeply on these  
  
  
• on neurodivergence: 
• from Orion Kelly - That Autistic Guy:
  - “PROOF Autistic People Make Great Employees - The Bystander Effect”   https://youtu.be/i6fzTN7CyPo?si=jufVVK6x7Lxo1OVs   The video notes don't include a link to the paper(s), but they can probably be tracked down. This is a good set of arguments as to why some of the corporate rubbish is, indeed, rubbish

Remember: we generally need to be more human being rather than human doing, to mind our Mӕgan, and to acknowledge that all misgendering is an act of active transphobia/transmisia that puts trans+ lives at risk & accept that all insistence on the use of “trans” as a descriptor comes with commensurate use of “cis” as a descriptor to prevent “othering” (just as binary gendered [men’s and women’s] sporting teams are either both given the gender descriptor, or neither).
