Make sure the store doesn't charge you before doing this. Safeway doesn't charge for this luxury service. And I'm done talking to those THINGS. I gave them a chance. Dumb as a fucking rock.

Outstanding! Also - always carry a black wide tipped sharpee pen, use it liberally to disable QR codes, as I did in 2021 when I went into restaurants that wanted you to scan your vaccine status.

In my youth, for any jobs I worked, all the checks would go into a bank account-that of course my mother had opened for me when I was very young. So I literally did not touch my own money, and had no real sense of how much money I 'had'. Just a few years ago, (at 58) I started using only cash. What has suprised me most is how I am much better at regulating my spending when use cash, and how much more enjoyable it is to use, on a human scale. It creates human to human interactions. The machines further divide us, which I see as purposefully imposed, now.

Great observation.

I use cash at least 90% of the time. Use it or lose it. Sometimes it’s tough when I take my son out for dinner because you know how expensive that is these days so pizza, salad and two drinks plus a tip can be 50 bucks and that’s a big dent in your cash wallet. The restaurants have to be hurting because I don’t know many people that can afford to eat out.

another interesting checkout issue is the look on some of the young cashier's faces when you pay with cash and the unfortunate difficulty they have making change

I love this idea. I’m going to do it every time I use a debit card!

I think the Earth and Animal spirits do not want these alien mofos here any more than those who see do. The alien mofos are just fucking everything up for all that is Earthen, Spirit, and Human. We all used to converse, but humanity has been brainwashed to not see the Natural, and the Earth and her Spirits are asking us to SEE and LISTEN. Go supernatural and see what you may see. More importantly, LISTEN. Kudos to you, Mike.

Thanks Sue. There are supernatural forces behind me so I fight them with confidence.

Here’s more fun weird stuff: the water in my well has a spirit. When I first bought my house almost 16 years ago, as is common practice in BC, they ‘shocked’ the 22 feet deep spring fed well with a gallon of bleach. Spring spirit was not happy. For the next two plus years my water ran black and smelled of sulphur. It has since healed and gives me amazing water. I talk to it regularly. There is also a spirit protecting my house. I never lock my doors. They may be one and the same spirit, but I do not know. Birds come to converse with me in the extent that I may walk up to them, offer my hand, and they hop on. I feel the Earth and her beauty, and despise these alien motherfuckers for trying to take our birthright away from us. Shit is going to hit the fan.

I sometimes ask in my sessions how many spirits are present. The answer is always too many to count. The shit is hitting the fan right now.

no pennies in Canada, damn! very rare are the places that offer this service, either. i hate the self check outs, but have used them occasionally when line ups are long. i hate also that you can't insert physical money into them. they've even taken most ATMs out of stores now. i usually end up swearing at the self checkouts out loud, which typically earns me some funny looks. the ones i most hate are the ones that want your contact information. i usually ask it at that point 'where's the fuck off button?' out loud, of course.

I lived in Canada for six years. That place was pleasant enough then but from what my Canadian friends tell me it seems to have become a dystopian hellhole, or at least the big cities have.

Even if you hadn't said explicitly that you were Canadian, you would have given yourself away by saying "line ups" in connection with waiting for those awful self-checkout machines. I love it. Americans say "lines" ("line ups" mean something else entirely) and Brits say "queues."

aaaahhh, that's funny! yes i am a canuck, but i stay the hell away from the big cities. i live in a small town of under 1000 permanent residents, and work in the forest. it's a lot more sane out here. i occasionally watch global BC (news), and i tend to swear at the tv as well. if i see bonnie henry or justin trudeau, it's hard not to actually throw something at it. same with the damn govt vax ads. you know they are actually encouraging people now to go get the C-juice, a flu shot, AND the RSV shot ALL AT THE SAME TIME?!?!? it's just nuts.

pics are incoming! susan.woermke@gmail.com it's very strange, but when i try looking through the actual photos (i.e., at the pictures themselves), i can't find them. this has happened before. i had to open the folder and sort by photo number with just the details showing and then take a wild guess, although i knew what photo numbers they might be.

Uh oh (though I think I've heard this story before): https://ianmsc.substack.com/p/dont-toss-those-masks-out-just-yet

I posted a response to this earlier in regard of demoralizing and dehumanizing (in reference to alien interventions), as well as DO NOT COMPLY, and ‘poof’ it disappeared. Imagine that.

Oh, and just now had to edit this one on the fly as my words were changed.

Buggering AI.
