This is Tim Pool and friends discussing the trans person who shot up a Christian school and killed 3 adults and 3 children.

My question (that I don't feel like leaving on the Bitchute video because Bitchute comments sections are always a cesspit) is what would happen if taking SSRI drugs was an automatic dis-qualifier from obtaining a gun license.

In dystopian areas that have such a thing as a gun license, which isn't my state, blue though it may be, is that nobody who owns a gun would ever seek mental health treatment or antidepressant medication.

On the other hand, I'm skeptical of psychiatric medications.

[kimberlysteele]

True enough! Psychiatrists hand out SSRIs like candy though, so I think you would be surprised by how many people are on them.

Today, I saw a YouTube video discussing a link between SSRI and the removal of empathy and identification with the suffering of other people, and the positing of a link between violent crime of all varieties and SSRI use.

They also posit that glucose disregulation and brain inflammation plays a role as well, linking poverty and violent behavior in a dietary fashion.

There could be something to it.

I was on SSRIs for about five years between ages 17-22. I can see how they would do that. One of the worst parts of anti-depressants was their "sleeping pill" effect. Trying to stay awake an hour after taking them was nearly impossible. Unfortunately the kind of sleep they caused was shallow: perfect for hypnogogia. I took the drugs in order to avoid suicidal ideations, and for me it worked for the most part, but there was always the feeling that the respite was temporary and fragile. Since I had not worked through what was driving my suicidal ideations, any break SSRIs gave me was bogus and deep down, I knew it. I was able to sleep; I could not avoid hypnogogia though. During those 5 years, I had intense hypnogogic states almost every night.

I took an SSRI for about three months around 8-9 years ago. They did seem to reduce my down thoughts, but they also seemed to reduce my empathy. At the end, I had a conversation with a friend who was having a tough time. As empathic words came out of my mouth, a voice in my head said 'you are not feeling what you saying'. I stopped taking them immediately.

So much easier.

I know I have said this before, but I am truly enjoying my donation site at BuyMeaCoffee.com for the ease of handling donations and the ability to comment on them in one place. There was no way of thanking people on a public profile with PayPal... only via personal emails that I found it difficult to keep up with. They also send me the funds automatically at BuyMeaCoffee, so it's one more thing I don't have to manually do if and when I am lucky enough to receive donations.

Hi Kimberly,

Two weeks ago you gave me an Ogham reading I'd like to provide feedback on, and say it looks like you nailed it. You gave me Ur well dignified, and said relationships would go smoothly; while I don't have a significant other, I made some serious progress towards building three new friendships, all of which seem to me to be promising for the long term. This is a huge deal for me, since I lost most of my friends during the last few years and am trying to rebuild my social circle.

The situation you referred to with Coll well dignified is likely an incident at work, where through some reports to the right people I've managed to start a process to get some help for a mentally disabled coworker of mine who is being abused by his boss; at the very least, there's now an investigation into it, and a few people I spoke to have said they will escalate it to some intense levels if our management doesn't address the problem.

As for Ruis, the last card, I think it fits as well, because I'm already coming to regret having made myself a target for my bosses here. The amount of time and energy being eaten up by this is incredible, and while I hope to see results, it would be so much easier to just shut up and ignore what had happened.

[kimberlysteele]

Fascinating! Thank you for the feedback. Yes, Ur is a card of trustworthiness. Effectively Ur well-dig is stating that you can keep a secret. People can sense this. Being able to keep a secret isn't just a friendship skill, it is THE friendship skill.

Hmm, yes, Coll speaks of slow, diligent, patient, and steady work towards a good cause, and getting help for a mentally disabled co-worker would certainly qualify. I hope you are able to get the best outcome for your co-worker and yourself.

Yes, Ruis can be straight up regret and people blaming you unfairly. Meaning they want you to feel sorry. Consider adding yourself to the Ecosophia prayer list. I can also sing a prayer to the Greek gods on your behalf if you grant permission -- it can be very hard to do the right thing and the gods are good at helping with that.

I will happily accept your prayers in this situation. Thank you for the kind offer.

Hi Kimberly and fellow commenters,

Have you ever heard of a group called Bride Ministries? They have a youtube channel and one of the videos features a woman that claims to have been a mermaid, but before she was a mermaid she was a frozen embryo. Oh, and their website has prayers with names like "Freedom from Evil Artificial Intelligence and Quantum Computers" and "Freedom from Constellations." Apparently, our DNA is woven into the constellations? I feel like I'm missing something here...

[kimberlysteele]

I had not heard of Bride Ministries or Dan Duval, but something about him seems very off. It is interesting that this video has only 422 Likes and 12K views.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ib-TohCs3bc

What that indicates is that it may have been ratioed. I would be interested in seeing how many Dislikes it has. Dan Duval gives me the creeps. My first impression of him is that he suffers from a split personality disorder and manic depression. From what he describes of sleep paralysis, it sounds like he has a demonic infestation and no decent tools to deal with it. He has weird claims about the Illuminati, the CIA, and Satanic ritual abuse that are sketchy and cast his words into doubt. I have no doubt Dan sees entities. The problem is I don't think the Jesus or Jesii he is working with are entirely benevolent. It is entirely possible his "Jesus" is not a deity at all. This is sadly a common flaw of modern Christianity: they lack the discernment to understand what parts of the spiritual ecosystem they are encountering at any given time. It's not that Dan doesn't have some good points: he seems bright and articulate. It's just depressing how common his desperate-yet-charismatic, goofy, car salesman "type" is among Christians.

Coincidentally, I was recently saying on TikTok how Christians often treat their religion like a multi-level marketing scheme: https://www.tiktok.com/@whitewitchoftheprairie/video/7216896496241773866

Oh neat, I had no idea you had a TikTok! Has anything by Dylan Mulvaney made it to your FYP?

[kimberlysteele]

What is an FYP?

Incan/Mayan reincarnation skip period.

[jpc_w]

If your post is still open, how long was the period the Incans and Mayans were hoping to skip out of?
The one loaner copy of _The War Against Time_ in the Toronto library system was stolen, apparently. :P

Re: Incan/Mayan reincarnation skip period.

[kimberlysteele]

I am not the most thorough reader, but I don't remember a specific time interval being mentioned. I do know that from what Sullivan says, they actively tried to prevent our era from coming to pass and when the Spanish showed up on their shores, they knew they had failed. If you'd like to borrow the book, I'll happily lend you my copy for a few months. Just send me a PM with your address at ksteele studio at gmail.

Re: Incan/Mayan reincarnation skip period.

[jpc_w]

Thank you for the offer, but the shipping to Canada would be greater than the cost of buying the book.
At least I know of a private occult library in Toronto I can donate it to afterwards.

Kimberly!
Kitties going to vet @ spca wednesday and James and I on sofa fretting til I remembered YOU!

Do kitties really need cones after and how long?

And what about vaxxes?

Thank you!

How do you handle fleas? Worms? Mom still has worms after diatomaceous earth.

Hi Erika,

That's great news! Thank you for caring for them and sheltering them. I don't think kitties need cones unless they are biting at their stitches. None of my ferals had cones and Shadow, my former feral, escaped his cone within five seconds of it being on. He never bit at his incisions. If they do bite at their incisions, maybe try newborn baby shirts: https://www.reddit.com/r/cats/comments/7ni1e8/for_new_years_we_found_out_our_cat_fits_in/

Fleas and worms are a vet thing: they will most likely prescribe a pill and I would just go with what they prescribe. As far as vaxxes, I wasn't given a choice -- my cats were given the normal vaccines, including rabies. Since they are indoor cats, I would have skipped it if given a choice. If they try to come at your kitties with the Covid quaxx, you should outright refuse.

[(Anonymous)]

Good morning and thank you soooo much for this!

Erika, I'm not sure you'll see this in time, but make sure your cats ALWAYS get their rabies vaccines in their rear leg (if at all - it's up to you to decide their risk vs. your local regulations) - that particular one is associated with cancer and a rear-leg issue is a lot easier to solve than one close to the chest cavity. Also, they don't need that every year.

catinfo.org was written by a vet (site doesn't seem to be actively updated anymore) and she said this:

"November 2016 update: Sadly, I have lost four of my cats in the past year. They ranged in age from 18-20 years. Three succumbed to cancer and one passed away from acute kidney failure.

Why am I bringing this up? It is because on the day of their passing, I drew blood for a vaccine titer from all of them. None of my cats had been vaccinated for FVRCP (herpes, calici, and panleukopenia viruses) since they were kittens and I wanted to know what their antibody level (titer) was to panleukopenia – the dreaded and often fatal ‘cat distemper’ virus.

Result: They all had what is considered to be a protective titer for the panleukopenia virus.

She also suggests the 3-year rabies vaccine.

[(Anonymous)]

Just adding as a general note -

Not all rabies vaccines are the same. The one commonly usually used by low-cost clinics (I think it's IMRab, but I'm not sure) is one of the cheapest ones on the market, and apparently it is linked with more problems and side-effects than other rabies vaccines. Clinics use it because cost-cutting.

I had read about this somewhere, and have now had two different vets confirm that yes, there are some cheap crappier rabies vaccines on the market, and assure me that they were using the better ones. They both said more or less the same things, independently - the cheap clinic rabies vaccines have more side effects and they have concerns about quality control, but the one they use has a much better track record, blah blah.

It might be worth finding a vet willing to discuss which rabies vaxxes are being used and make sure they can justify their choice - which both bets I talked to were quick to do, and their reasons for using what they used and not using other ones seemed to make sense. They may not be willing to get off the vax train, but some of them will admit that there are quality issues and some are worse than others.

Update #3 on a previous Ogham reading. It was the one in which I asked if my 5 year anniversary would be an auspicious time to quit my job and start my venture in earnest. I did not, and opted to wait until the payout of annual bonuses.

On the same day we received our bonus payout the company rescinded its jab mandate for returning to the office. I no longer have that as a spectre looming over my days and in theory no more reason to leave at all.

But I don't trust that they wouldn't do it again. And they are very woke which creates a more and more unappealing work environment as time passes. I still feel like staying is just forestalling the inevitable.

But sure enough not leaving in December was probably a better idea than leaving would have been.
