In Liu Cixin’s novel “The Three Body Problem” an alien race, the Trisolarans, encircle Earth with a sentient “unfolded” proton in order to form a virtual barrier around the planet; to spy on the inhabitants and to prevent advances in technology by throwing a metaphorical monkey-wrench into the works of man.

Gold didn’t get turned into money; gold got turned into aquiesence and our addiction to metallic Personhood. Gold is not an event, it’s a teleology of inconsequentialism in the face of alien gnosis. Herculoidism writ large.

Yeah, I agree. I happily sent my copy away with a gormless friend and really don’t care if he returns it.

I was thinking the same thing.

Strieber identifies the gas as nitrous oxide. He “explains” thus: reoxidized nitrous oxide as a gate dielectric for charge-trapping non-volatile memory. And then he goes to say that high density ultra cold atomic gases can be used as media for photon storage in quantum computing. Clear as….

New Zealand seems to be ripe for the picking of some strange, conspiratorial fruit. There was that newspaper report naming Lee Oswald published before any other in the world had any reliable information. Or am I dreaming ?

Great interview. Has me thinking about what celestial objects are visible from Antarctica, and what the “function” of extended night/day might have for any group of technicians (ancient or modern) who had or have some telluric business there.

I’m translating the lyrics into German for personal use !!

Secrets of the Unified Field is a great book about magic, but you probably have already read it.

There was an episode of Star Trek Voyager when Capt. Janeway and Lt. Paris devolved into ancient space-worms and got friendly. Very funny, but it made me think of the innate Shapeshifter we all carry around with us.

The english magickian Austin Spare had some things to say about Atavistic Resurgance; unscrambling your everyday mind in order to revivify a long buried connection to animals, reptiles and insects, and, who knows ? maybe even hominids and their erstwhile cousins…
