the greeks, a civilisation that gave us so much that we live in the shadow off, a mighty empire that like all offered light and darkness. 

the greek healers had a oath, they based it on their gods of healing, apollo, asciepius, hygiela, panacea...

over the years there have been variations, subtle changes but in the original it states, 'i will abstain from all intensional wrong doing and harm.'

in the 19th century it became 'practice two things in your dealings with desease, 'either help or do not harm the patient.'

yet the last amendment a few years ago to the oath took out one simple and vastly significant line.

'do no harm' removed.

some say it is to herald the euthanasia movement, and others say it's to counter the hypocrisy, you sometimes have to harm a patient in order to save them, but it is none the less food for thought such a removal comes about just before these covid vaccines. no conspiracy here, just coincidence or is it the other way around? 

by the way, 'do no harm' is an ancient code known amongst witches, decent ones at least who practised the healing arts. 

 i've always thought steven king writes great short stories, but very few of his novels work for me. okay 'christine' is excellent, and i loved 'pet cemetery' as it explores grief so well. but if you have not read short stories like, 'apt pupil, the road virus heads north, survivor type,' then you are missing out. 

many attempt to imitate his work in their novels, and imitations usually fail for me. i need something that is distinctly unique and less formulaic than his novels. so when i picked up imaginary friend by stephen chbosky, the author of 'perks of being a wallflower' i was hoping to find something original but instead found a b grade novel that could have been a bad king book. i mean it's well written and parts of it are very interesting but it's basically a christian horror novel and therefore falls into a predictable pattern. i liked the characters, the idea although it became to messy at the end, i liked the imagery but it became sentimental and weakened the whole concept. anyway, i would say unless you really like king novels don't read it.

while i was laid up for a couple of weeks i also read thursday murder club, by some english well connected comedy writer whose name i think is richard osman. ah here it is. anyway's he writes a murder novel about four old retirees in a upper class type retirement village. he's very good at being sensitive to the characters and gives them all a certain dignity but it's just a crap middle of the road novel i'd never really want to read but it was the only book available for a week. anyway, it's pointless as far as i'm concerned. 

.

everything is just chill. the last two months i basically had time out, wandering the beaches, basking in the sun,  reading a few books. it's been lovely, my old bones have new life, the rest of me may be falling apart but generally i feel pretty good. a new regime of health, before china nuke us. it's all good i detach from everything a little, including myself. it is remarkable how often i have escaped death, this time was as unexpected as snow at xmas at bondi. really weird but it makes sense on so many levels. 

anyway, people have been so lovely, really great. i'm lucky, i don't have many friends but everyone of them was there for me, and everyone of them did their bit. i'm grateful to them. really grateful.

i was watching dr. malone give an interview for epoch, i've been following his stuff closely as he is the inventor of the dna vaccine and has always addressed the current situation with caution and a growing bewilderment. he's no anti vaxer, he's no facebook warrior, nope, he's a scientist who knows what he is talking about. and like most scientist that know what they are talking about he has been silenced. fortunately there are platforms which do not ban people and do not censor. malone is consistent, he's accurate and presents the data in a clear and easy way. 

the biggest issue is the vaccinated have invested so heavily in their ideology they cannot even bare to listen to any other point of veiw, they cannot understand the full picture and refuse to occupy thoughts with anything counter because it overwhelms them.  it reminds me very much of 1939 germany when jews were told to tae a shower to delouse. the cynical pessimistic ones fled, the optimistic stayed. 

here we are in the age of technocracy, mass brainwashing through media replaces a reasonable president with a demented lunatic. where are all those democrats now? the facebook androids who constantly hounded trump, who called for impeachment every day and every change they could. the media whom focused on him, his wife and family, ignored his successful economic direction, his peace plans, his record employment achievements, where are their voices? 

it's all virtue signalling. hypocrisy and ignorance. the same goes for the vaccination movement, the facts no longer count, only the ideology. 'look at me' people post, 'i got vaxed.' what they really are doing is showing everyone how they trusted a massive corrupt pharmaceutical company, corrupt governments loyal to the united nations, corrupt technocrats and willingly took the shower, only this time it's a spike protein that will destroy their natural immune system and or kill them when it get's stuck in the brain. it's not even a vaccine by therapeutic standards, it's an experiment and you are the guinea pigs. everyday i check the usa, the uk's and the au's stats buried beneath the complex website, it's very hard to navigate, very hard to know what words these vaccines now use to identify themselves, and very under acknowledged.  but the facts are more people die from the vaccines than covid. so how come that is not reported. also how is it not reported that when diagnosed positive the public are not given any treatment plan, all they have to do is take a combination of ivermectin or hydro, vitamin c and d, zink and possibly some nac. if it's early days you can zap the virus with a dose of iodine.  plenty of medical scientists all try to warn you, but they all are silenced and cancelled.  

trust the science people say, yeah well science also led to the bomb, as john stewart said, the last words of this civilisation will be proclaimed by a scientist, 'oh look it works.'

 i often notice how the media seems to rejoice when an unvaxed person dies of corona virus, it's like a little celebration of death and a warning that everyone must get vaxed. yet the individuals whom die of being vaccinated or die of corona virus after being vaccinated are not reported and or under reportaed, in fact the uk, usa and au govt. websites hide the numbers in plain sight and you have to dig deep to find them. a lot of countries have a reporting system but their governments do not promote them and the numbers under represent the facts.

you have no choice but to look into alternative media sites to find answers, you have to know that the person has no agenda and that he / she has the right qualifications to at least know what they are talking about. most of the people i listen to are scientists's doctors, virologists and sprucing an opinion. they have clear factual evidence. sometimes i do listen to opinion, but from both sides, this way i can sort out whom i listen to, the promoter of vaccines or the science that takes a wholistic approach. 

day by day i challenge my traumas, perhaps the biggest was my brussel sprout trauma which spawned from skool where for skool dinners they fed us boiled brussel sprouts which is possibly why i don't like anything from brussels, and view it with a sort of suspicion most people perceive north korea. 

over the last week i have experimented with how to eat brussel sprouts, obviously without boiling. 

i have tried many variations and now i am proud to say have discovered the perfect way to make a sprout taste amazingly good. if you want the answer let me know. i can't just reveal this else it will send the price sky high and seeing as though it's all i eat these days i can't allow that to happen. however i could eat them for breakfast, lunch and diner now!

still skeptical about brussels.
