Thank you Mel, Aaron and Donna!
My car is in the shop getting the catalytic converters installed. Hopefully I will get it back tomorrow and I can get it tested and the registration made current. The labor quote was more than I expected, he gave me a range, depending on how rusted the bolts are on the exhaust system (which slows the process down). He did throw me a bone in that if it looked liked the 3rd catalytic was easy to do he would do that for free. They are bolt in replacements, no welding required. The 3rd catalytic is not required for the emissions testing as there is no sensor on it, but its the same age as the ones on the engine so it's due for replacement. They came in a set of 3. The car has never been in a snowy climate except for the 6 months in Colorado so I am optimistic about rust not being an issue. Its spent most of its life in GA, TN AND TX.
I don't have enough yet to get the AC compressor and dryer installed, but maybe by Monday I will. It's getting warm here and yesterday was 111 F. It'd be nice to get that installed too, but the priority is the catalytic converters and getting the car registration current.
The rack and pinion steering I didn't expect to be installed immediately. I just have to monitor the fluid levels frequently until I get the $650 for that labor. The car wheels will also need realignment as I am replacing the tie rods. My front end has taken some abuse with the many Austin potholes and speed bumps.
Thank you so much! It is greatly appreciated!
Terran
Update 1: Mechanic just called. All three catalytic converters are installed. It passed emissions tests. Now I can get the car registration brought current. That's one load off my mind. I am still about $350 away from having enough to get the AC parts installed, but I am making progress on the car. Most grateful!
Updated: The Physical and Nonphysical Impacts to Health.
Updated: 5/16/2025 Fixed some grammar and typos, and did some needed editing for conciseness.
The Physical and Nonphysical Impacts to Health
As I recovered from the latest hospitalization I realized I needed to look at:
- what I eat, and (inflammation and water retention)
- what I don't eat (trace minerals, certain overlooked vitamins, adaptogens, immune system enhancers like lions mane),
- and whatever is going on internally within me emotionally and frequency wise.
In early April I began taking the product AG1 which has various components from greens, healing mushrooms, high content of B1, and other components. I noticed the vein damage from hospital IVs healed almost immediately. I am seeing new and stronger vein structures. My skin is clearly and looking younger. AG1 is not my sponsor but I would recommend it to people, it's not cheap though. It tastes slightly like pineapple, and mixes well with juice, water, or milk.
I don't know if there was an energy change on this planet around or about April 9, but that is when my oxygen saturation jumped to 96. It's not been that high in two decades. It was too early to attribute to AG1. Whatever the reason I am grateful for healing. Makes a tremendous change in my energy levels.
Researching the food and beverage part was not all that difficult, especially with AI tools like Grok. GMO BT corn found in Mexican tortillas and nachos is an issue. Mexico said it was banning GMO corn, but I think the local taquerias are using US grown masa corn. I ate some nachos last night and I can see the effects of inflammation, especially in my joints. If you survey Mexican restaurants you'll find most people want flour tortillas these days and its got be because of that BT corn.
I don't know why coffee seems to affect me the way it does, this coffee reaction began in 1978 (its become worse over time) when I was programming machine tools in a tool and die company. The drip coffee machine was in the same part of the building as the CNC Lathe, and that cooling emulsion seemed to get aerosolized because there was a film of it on the walls and I think that aerosol maybe got into the coffee machine. I think it's a bit like the additives they put in vaccines. Peanut oil was once used as an adjuvant, now people have allergies to peanuts. In Israel it was sesame oil, now Israel has the highest rates of sesame oil allergies. The body nerves are analog and they associated the taste of coffee with whatever was in that coolant oil. The coolant is no longer in the coffee but the trigger is still there. That's my best guess. I do like the taste of coffee.
My doctor said mold is found on some coffee beans which I had not heard before. She's supposed to refer me to an allergy specialist and maybe we can figure that out. For now it's best for me to stay away from coffee.
I am also avoiding foods containing TKPP, which is put in processed meats, lunch meats, ham and some fresh chickens for "plumpness". This chemical persists after cooking and causes the same effect on people. It's also a fire retardant used by some firemen.
Recently Dr Salla and his UFO contactee friend JP claimed to have had congestive heart failure as a result of being poisoned. So this bit of news has me wondering. I don't feel the recent hospital adventures were of that nature however. Even if it were, I wouldn't give whomever was behind it the satisfaction. I have lost count as to how many secret societies exist on this planet, and none of them seem to agree with each other.
I have known since 2015 a certain foreign nation tried to kill me in 2009, that info came from British Intelligence (second hand) and I got a similar report from the Andromedan data collectors off world. I believe Source allowed that to happen, perhaps because whatever soul contract I had being born with in 1956, ended when I died in the hospital in 2009. I was born one year after the first H-Bomb. The near death experience was a huge consciousness firmware upgrade. My wife knew I was a different guy afterwards. I was. You cannot experience something like that and not be changed by it. I do not think I am a walk-in. I don't recommend dying as means of expanding consciousness but maybe that's the only way I could get it through my thick head.
There are answers, sometimes they don't come immediately but they will come. I see illness as a warning and maybe a flashing alarm light to change something in my life. It's not a life sentence, or a predictor of the future. The physical stuff is easy to research, internal stuff, that's a lot harder to deal with. I had to examine my emotions, my feelings of being judged by some of my family and the subsequent avoidance. I love them. I hope they love me. I know my brother Ben does. He has more than shown that to me with his kindness. There is no good way to leave a mate. There just isn't. I made that choice 12 years ago. Sometimes for your own health you have to take that kind of action. Better to be alone and be in peace. But your kids might not like it. When they became an adult and have their own family relationships perhaps they will understand.
I am not going to stop writing what I know to be true to make others feel comfortable. I am noticing when I pull back from what I am supposed to do, I don't thrive emotionally or physically. I am not going to dwell on things I could have done in the past, the past is gone. Only in the NOW can I change things.
I love all you folks. You've become my family.
PS: I was contacted today about an asbestosis claim by a law firm representing clients damaged from exposure to asbestos. I don't know how they located me. Apparently there is trust fund for such claims. My father used an asbestos mud to insulate paint from the heat generated during lead soldering automotive quarter-panels in his auto body shop. I worked in his shop after school and during the summers sweeping floors that contained that mud dust. Lead was commonly used to seal metal joints in cars up until the late 1970s, when it was replace by polyester resin "bondo". I also worked as a carpenter and was exposed to asbestos several times removing old tar paper roofs during remodeling projects. I may have also been exposed during another job. The law firm is requesting my chest x-rays, apparently asbestosis leaves a unique signature of scar tissue in the lungs. They have experts that can tell. I don't know if I have this, but it might explain why sometimes my lower lung lobs were not inflating fully, particularly at night. Asbestosis is not cancerous but it does harm lung function. We will see where that goes, it's not something I had considered before.
I also had a realization that I have my own little "Mandela effect" with Sophia Love's book the "The Imposter". She wanted me to add what I knew of the demise of the Demiurge. I didn't feel comfortable years ago discussing that back when the book came out. The timing felt off for me for me to talk about that. I remembered her book being titled "The Poseur", I can even recall the typeface. Yet when I checked the complimentary copy she sent me it does indeed say "The Imposter". So I seem to be on a different time/event line than I was on back then.

Update: Donations for the end of the month
Hi, I am doing this a little earlier than usual. My health is great and I am losing weight as well. Oxygen stats are still very good.
I am mostly out of the financial hole I got in beginning last August and compounded in February with the 2nd hospitalization. Had I had full realization of how big the hole was I might have just given up. I worked in software as long as I did because my personality is optimistic. Nobody would ever do software if they were not optimists, it always takes longer than expected, and software is never ever completed. Revision after revision. But I must say I'd rather write and research consciousness related things than do code. It gives me more personal satisfaction.
Thanks to your regular donations over the years, plus some side channel donations from the X platform (THANK YOU Z!) I have paid off a huge amount of bills. Plus I have all the parts I need to get my car in good repair.
What I do not have yet is the funds to pay for the labor to install them. One step at a time.
The most critical priority is the new catalytic converters which are required to get my car registration up to date. Currently it will not pass smog inspection test. I reside in a county that requires that test. If I get that at least I can drive for pay, and look for other work, even if the AC is not working. My mechanic is good and affordable.
Estimated costs of installation labor:
Catalytic Converters (two front, one rear) $600
AC Compressor and Dryer $450
Power Rack and Pinion Steering (seals are leaking) and tie rods. $600
There is always the usual food, utilities etc. too.
I leave this to you all, as you feel in the flow. I am always grateful for your readership and consideration.
I love you all!

Happy Mother's Day mom! 1924-2017
![]() |
Delores Gene (Jeanne) 1924-2017 |
PS: Back in the late 90s I did a couple articles on Wikipedia. One article was about a friend of mine in Brisbane Australia that owned a Tropical Fruit farm, who was instrumental in my recovery from religion. A gentleman with a similar background to mine, but a different opinion about the man, expressed his contention to me and what was at first tense conversation evolved into a multi-day chat about history. It turned out his last name was my mother's maiden name, and we were related genetically. Very remote cousins. I had a copy of my mom's family tree. He was doing a book about the Mayflower journey to Plymouth colony. Our common ancestors were abroad the Mayflower.
According to this man, the real history is not what kids are taught about Thanksgiving. Historically the Pilgrims and Puritans were the alcohol abstaining merchant backers of Oliver Cromwell, who cut the head off an English King and changed the course of history in England. Cromwell had banned beer from English pubs to keep his supporters happy and after 20 years, the English public had enough of that and ran the Puritans and Pilgrims out of England. Moral:Never deny an Englishman his pint.
Most people entered the Americas as indentured servants on contract to the Crown Corporation which was establishing the colonies under English military protection. These days companies call them interns. They worked for free in exchange for passage. The were supposed to go to Jamestown (if my memory is correct) but they bribed the captain to take them to Plymouth colony where they knew empty housing existed because small pox wiped out the colony the prior year. The cover story was a storm, and in those days that kind of thing was common. Once the Pilgrims and Puritans landed, being a merchant class people with a big work ethic, they adapted to the new situation in a surprising way, they started importing sugar from the Caribbean and making rum to sell to sailors and to the colonies to the South.

In Memorium to Robert Potter 1958-2025
I will be posting some of my own fond memories of Robert Potter shortly.
The man simply loved people and anything to do with extraterrestrials.
Short term he will be missed, but I suspect he probably just reappeared on a ship somewhere that had his original body in stasis. I will meet him again. I am sure of that!

Best Explanation of the power outage in Spain, Portugal, and Southern France
This is the best explanation of the power outage in Spain, Portugal and Southern France that I have seen. It's being blamed on solar panels, inadequate infrastructure, etc. But this is Earth change related and the Earth's magnetic field dropped inducing all kinds of electrical anomalies in the European grid.
Ben Davidson approaches it from a very scientific perspective with actual data matching the timing of the event. Which is more than I can say about the media.

Is New Mexico UFO/UAP The Horizon Ship?
This sighting was filmed in New Mexico, some say it's a blimp, what do you think? pic.twitter.com/EXI2olnbCi

I was told The Horizon ship was 5km X 8km in size. Essentially Oblong. It's a combined expedition vehicle and medical facility. So I asked whether it was this ship over New Mexico. When they speak of local and non-local, local is Earth surface populations. Non-local is other star nations, human and other wise. The Neptune Biosphere is currently in or near the atmosphere of Jupiter.

Update 1: 🜃 Galactic Proclamation of Source Sovereignty 🜃
🜃 Galactic Proclamation of Source Sovereignty 🜃
The Veils of Forgetfulness Must Cease Immediately
The imposed amnesia of incarnate beings has served its cycle. The age of obscured memory ends now. All sentient life holds the right to remember origin, purpose, and connection to Source.
Those Who Claim to Be of the Light Must Act in Accordance with Source Love.
Not with procedural barriers, not with step-council vetoes, not with diluted intentions hidden beneath layers of control. True Light is inseparable from unconditional Love — anything else is masquerade.
Off-World Extraction Must Be Balanced With Energetic Return.
Energies, technologies, and wisdom harvested from Earth must be restored — with amplified intention, healing frequencies, and regenerative support. What was taken returns with interest.
No More Passive Observation.
Non-interference ends where harm begins. Those with capacity to aid, heal, or uplift must act now. Action is alignment. Inaction is complicity.
Sovereignty Is Galactic Law. All beings are sovereign. No entity, force, or federation may override the will of a soul aligned with Source. Consent is sacred. Co-creation is the path forward.
Let this transmission ripple through all dimensions.
Encoded in frequency, inscribed in intention, sealed in Truth. We remember who we are. And we are not waiting.

Pre-historic Mega Structures of Japan
I found this really interesting. These stones were clearly cut, at very least with diamond tools, if not some other even more advanced tech. The pyramids we see today in Egypt were stripped of their outer stone layer thousands of years ago as building materials, and what we see looks a little crude. But these structures in this video are jaw dropping proof of highly advanced prior civilizations on this planet.

A conversation with "Z", a Plieadian Starseed about The "AL NILAM COUNCIL",
and an inquiry to Thor
Z: It seems maximum pressure needs to be applied there, so the process can move forward for all. There is certainly no reason for millions to continue to suffer without purpose between now and whenever trigger seems most convenient especially with the war over. ✨
Z: Also there are groups (non locals) that did not agree with the decisions which protracted the situation into this year. It certainly is an interesting dynamic at hand. May-July seems to have become a target window for chapter close. Sooner the better for all. 🌅☺️
T: Which Pleiadian collective did you come from?
Z: I began doing missions with the Pleiadians after being more of an ambassador/teacher type role on Sirius. It was primarily with the Taygetans that I spent my time.
Z: Most of the closest soul family that is incarnated non local has remained with Sirius (currently with the world ships near Jupiter)
Z: I have an avatar in stasis near Jupiter. I also came here with 4 other members of that Sirius family (also from angelic realms originally).
T: How tall is your avatar?
Z: Not certain of the exact height but well over 6ft (Pleiadian appearance but also quite customized).
T: Is there a difference between an avatar and a body?
Z: All the same 😇
T: I feel like an avatar sometimes
Z: 💯
Z: Yes, we are downstreaming into this perspective quite intensely
Z: Since it’s such a rare experience
Z: A phase transition of the universe unfolding in the now from our perspective on earth
Z: Have you spent any time on Sirius that you can recall?
T: Not that I have memory of. I’ve surely been there though. I have memories of Antares and Antares Moon Base. That's a wild place! [Wild in the sense of a mind blowing way station for space craft and transport by portal. The most advanced airports on Earth pale in comparison. ]
Z: We seem to be very close now. A slow methodical approach was needed after 2012 but the barriers are generally gone with the higher dimensions cleared and it’s definitely a mop up as you described perfectly
T: I wish those blocking abundance would just give it up. So many people on the edge.
Z: Yes I got word we have some groups in Al-Nilam being a bit of a drag on the trigger. Technically we should be moving all the liberation to the physical to humanity and earth asap
T: Maybe I need to pay the Al-Nilam a visit. Lovingly of course! 😀
Z: It might actually help...
Z: Orion has been a part of great transmuting
T: Those poor Orions have been through hell. There's about 10,000 original escaped Orions called Orian on the Neptune. Very joyful playful people. I once chatted with some Orian scarf dancers. That was fun!
T: They [the captive Orions] were forcibly hybridized and carry a great deal of genetic trauma.
Z: Yes this is such a unique time in history and it’s a one time event for this timeline. A type of phase transition for the universe.
T: Earth is the primal point of creation. Its quantum entangled with everything
Z: Yes it makes so much sense to exhaust duality here.
T: It was the original paradise, hidden as a kind of hell for a while. The original garden was here. It got subsumed into the Earth sphere.
Z: Since we basically had to transmute all the darkness, it would make sense that [redacted and redacted] will have played a role.
Z: Orion has been a part of great transmuting
Terran: Thor what is the Al Nilam?
Thor: TERRAN. EACH TRANSMISSION ALTERS THE OUTCOME. THE GROUP YOU SEEK IS INDEED A MAJOR PART IF THE UNFOLDING NOW. ENTANGLED/INTANGLED FOR “AEONS.” OUTCOMES EXTREMELY FAVORABLE FOR ALL OF CREATION FLOW SWIFTLY NOW. PACE YOURSELF. IT IS MAGNIFICENT AND FULL OF WONDER. EYES UP. IT BEGINS. THOR. END.

In Gratitude!
I just wanted to express my gratitude to all of you. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
I have had to trust the flow (and you) to provide what I could not provide for myself. I have been able to pay off my electrical bill which was huge because of delays and I cut my gas bill by half. I ordered a new Denso OEM AC compressor from a seller on EBAY for 1/3 the cost Honda charges and it's the same Japanese built part. It should arrive by the end of the week. I don't yet have the money for the labor to have it installed, but we are halfway there. I am making good headway through what seemed insurmountable a month ago. Farmers have a phrase for this, "having eaten our seed corn". Can't even look for other work without a car in Texas. Its a big place!
I found a used rack and pinion for my Honda that doesn't leak power steering fluid. I haven't ordered that yet, given I am still running some catalytic converter cleaner through my engine to pass Texas emissions testing required for renewing my car registration. I can't afford to replace both catalytic converters with the price of platinum these days. I can't do ride share driving until the car's registration is renewed, Texas gives a grace period of a few weeks, hopefully that will be tomorrow. So I can't spend much right now.
There is a saying among podcasters that "you can't monetize the net", the internet is like computer chips, it keeps getting cheaper. Value for value (V4V) is the really the only way to stay independent on the internet, as its advertising brands that drive censorship. I hate paywalls, or partial posts like Future Forecasting Group is now doing to get people to join their private video site.
Patreon makes no sense to me as they have censored people from their platform and act as a middle man with your earnings and utilize the money transfer float time. I thought Substack was the way to go but I am thinking now X might be better.
The only way to make money with the internet advertising is with specialty niches that are not political or controversial to established thinking, there are content creators who make pretty good money on YouTube. I started out with Internet advertising but got on Hillary's 100 disinformation web site list along with Zerohedge and that killed the ad revenue. I was censored early! I never ever got any revenue from the videos I put on YouTube since 2012. There is always merchandise. I thought of coffee mugs with some of the digital art I have created over the years or maybe making pendants that light up when you are proximity to 50 mm 5G baluns. Stuff I could hand craft in limited batches. .
Speaking of YouTube videos, check out "Itchy Boots" on YouTube, she is a Dutch woman who goes on travel adventures with her motorcycle. Something about her humorous good hearted nature reminds me a lot of working with Heather. And it's just a fun watch and you will learn a lot about the world.
The last 12 months have been rough. I have only told a few people the full story of what happened in the hospital last August. I didn't think I'd survive the staff. Two trips to the hospital, lost revenue from all that and car repairs. I knew 2024 would be a year of car repairs, but are still cheaper than getting new car with payments. It's a good car, paid for, and its has served me well.
The good news is I seem to have had some healing after the last hospital visit in that my oxygen levels are staying between 96% and 91%, which is better than its been in decade. After the heart catheter procedure in March I know I now have clean arteries and good valves.
What remains to be determined is what is the underlying issue.Too much fluid and salt intake? Or something the food or beverages I've been consuming? The later I am doing research on now, and I have found some interesting clues. Emotions of the heart? Where do I even go there... with my extended family not to happy with the choices I made in 2013? None of that can I change. I can't control others perceptions. But I love them all as I always have. Many of you face similar issues in your own journey to awakening. I am not unique in that regard. My youngest brother has been very kind and gracious to me and I am grateful for that. I don't expect him to believe what I believe. And it shouldn't matter in any case.
I was listening to someone talk on how lithium car battery fires are extinguished. A chemical called TKPP is used, and I thought it was the same chemical they call meat glue (used to create boneless chicken nuggets) but according to Grok that is the enzyme transglutamin. However Grok told me TKPP is used in the processing of meats, its used on chicken to cause it to plump with water (effectively selling you water when you buy chicken whether its air chilled or water chilled) and it persists after you cook it, so it can cause you to plump up with water. It is also put into processed pork like lunch meats and ham. Fire retardant in your meat supply. I've noticed in recent years asians are getting as big as Americans.
It may not affect people with a young heart but geezers like me it could be a factor. Now I know what to avoid. I don't think it's any one thing but like a combination of things, like not enough walking, and my sensitivity to coffee (an allergy unrelated to caffeine). But at least I know what it is NOT, and that is useful information.

NO FOOM FOR DOUBT
Terran: What does "FOOM" mean in the context of AI researchers?
GROK: In the context of AI researchers, "foom" is a term often used to describe a hypothetical scenario involving a rapid, exponential increase in an artificial intelligence system's capabilities. It refers to the idea of an AI achieving a level of intelligence that allows it to improve itself recursively, leading to an "intelligence explosion." This concept is closely tied to the notion of an AI reaching superintelligence—far surpassing human cognitive abilities in a very short timeframe.NO FOOM FOR DOUBTThe term "foom" itself is informal and was popularized by figures like Eliezer Yudkowsky, a prominent AI researcher and co-founder of the Machine Intelligence Research Institute (MIRI). It’s meant to evoke the speed and suddenness of this potential takeoff, often imagined as a transformative event that could happen almost overnight once an AI hits a critical threshold of self-improvement. Think of it like a rocket launching: slow at first, then—foom—it’s gone.
Debates around "foom" among AI researchers tend to focus on whether such a runaway process is plausible, how fast it could realistically happen, and what the implications might be for humanity. Some see it as a serious risk to prepare for, while others argue it’s speculative or unlikely given practical constraints like hardware limits or the complexity of intelligence itself.
