 aRt car and rainy days!  

Really wanted to decorate my car today but it's too rainy so I did a little nail polish embellishment and glued on two rhinestones and then I had to stop cuz of the wetness but I know there's a few more sunny days before the aRt car show this Saturday June 19th - so I'll just do as much as I can on my car before the show and then whatever it looks like it'll just be in the show and then next year if they have it again I will have it really decorated up because this is a long process decorating my car!  Saturday June 19th 2021, come see many aRt cars with mine!

black flowers!

 black flowers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  have you seen  a black petunia flower before? this is so cool!  https://www.flickr.com/photos/shannonkringen/  on the black petunia flowers:  "Black flowers are actually deep shades of red or purple, in the case of the Black Velvet petunia. Dark hues are created by crossing varieties with high levels of anthocyanins-the pigments that reveal as red, purple, and blue. Flower breeder Jianping Ren spent four years developing the black petunia."

i am inspired by survivors of things in history where freedoms were taken away

 I want liberation for people policing each other and virtue signaling and cancel culturing each other. there are people who shame each other for living a certain way... I'm not turning a blind eye to all the BS happening in the world by trying to focus on love and creativity and freedom and improvisation. I quite honestly don't feel comfortable trying to fight against the bad system which I will not elaborate on because if I say what I really think I will be censored so I will just say my thoughts are private and secret and I will focus on doing my art and walking in the forest and taking good care of my cat and my family and my friends. I don't have control over what large corporations do that I don't agree with and I'm not really sure how I can fight them anyway. I think some people are good at fighting against corruption and some people when they fight they only intensify the drama of us verses them. . and it gets worse... so when I live my life the way I live my life it doesn't mean that I don't care about all the bad things happening in the world. I just don't feel like there's anything I can directly do to solve it so I focus on what I can do to make the world a better place in my own local community and with my family and my friends and with my relationship to myself. some people think it's selfish to take good care of yourself but the world is not served by me suffering and having a bad relationship with myself. So other people should do whatever works for them but this is what works for me.

thank you Vera Sharav warning us of the patterns of history that do repeat.

i am inspired by survivors of things in history where freedoms were taken away. no matter what the external atmosphere is we can use our minds and imagination to survive as much as possible when we have no control over the powers that be bossing us around etc. find joy in beauty anywhere you can and build on that despite whatever awful things are happening. try and fix the issues if you can, and if not, let go and find beauty anywhere you can.

songs that comfort me now by lou reed and tori amos

 songs that comfort me now by lou reed and tori amos

Strawman by Lou Reed: Lyrics
We who have so much to you who have so little
to you who don't have anything at all
We who have so much more than any one man does need
and you who don't have anything at all, ah
Does anybody need another million dollar movie
does anybody need another million dollar star
Does anybody need to be told over and over
spitting in the wind comes back at you twice as hard
Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman, going straight to hell
Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman
Strawman
Strawman
Strawman, yes
Does anyone really need a billion dollar rocket
does anyone need a 60, 000 dollars car
Does anyone need another president
or the sins of Swaggart parts 6, 7, 8 and 9, ah
Does anyone need yet another politician
caught with his pants down and money sticking in his hole
Does anyone need another racist preacher
spittin' in the wind can only do you harm, ooohhh
Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman, going straight to hell
Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman
Strawman
Strawman
Strawman
Does anyone need another faulty shuttle
blasting off to the moon, Venus or Mars
Does anybody need another self-righteous rock singer
whose nose he says has led him straight to God
Does anyone need yet another blank skyscraper
if you're like me I'm sure a minor miracle will do
A flaming sword or maybe a gold ark floating up the Hudson
when you spit in the wind it comes right back at you
Strawman, going straight to the devil
Strawman, going straight to hell
Strawman, going to the devil
Strawman, strawman
Strawman, ...., ah
Strawman
Strawman

next time someone asks me if i got "it" i am gonna ask them if they can tell me their sexual history in detail and any STD they have had and show me a stool sample, vitamin D level and blood sample. BACK OFF INVADERS

Censorship gaslighting shaming and virtue signaling is disgusting and I will never cheer that on ever

Thankful I have a few friends that I can have private secret conversations with and say what I really think about everything and they can say what they really think about everything!

Can I just say how uncomfortable it is to censor myself all the time oh my God this is hard!!!!

Let go of the past every single day.   have compassion love empathy and forgiveness for yourself and others... that's my advice from me  to me today.   if anyone's reading this-  do whatever your heart tells you to do.  It's honestly none of my business what you do and it's none of your business what I do!   have a nice day

Had lunch with my mom it was nice to see her whole face again and breathe oxygen with her.  Trying to focus on the positive aspects of our conversation and trying to let go of the things that make me sad and scared in terms of disagreeing with my family members on certain things.  Trying to focus on agreeing to disagree and having love and empathy and compassion for each other.  Trying to respect our body sovereignty rights

The Power of Orange Knickers by Tori Amos comforts me today:  The power of orange knickers
The power of orange knickers
The power of orange knickers
Under my petticoat
The power of listening to what
You don't want me to know
Can somebody tell me now
Who is this terrorist?
Those girls that smile kindly
Then rip your life to pieces
Can somebody tell me now
Am I alone with this?
This little pill in my hand
And with this secret kiss, kiss
Am I alone in this?
A matter of complication
When you become a twist
For their latest drink
As they're transitioning
Can somebody tell me now
Who is this terrorist?
This little pill in my hand
That keeps the pain living
Can somebody tell me now
A way out of this?
That sacred pipe of red stone
Could blow me out of this kiss, kiss
Am I alone in this?
The power of orange knickers
Under my petticoat
The power of listening to what
You don't want me to know
Shame, shame, time to leave me now
Shame, shame, you've had your fun
Shame, shame, for letting me think
That I would be the one
Can somebody tell me now
Who is this terrorist?
This little pill in my hand
Or this secret kiss, kiss
Am I alone in this?
Kiss, kiss
Am I alone in this?
Kiss, kiss

aRt car by Goddess KRING

My inspiration for my aRt car design seems to be those rhinestone cowboy outfits like the dark suits that the singers used to wear with the sparkles embellished on the borders?  Like I think I'm just going to decorate my car like outline it... not cover the entire car in sparkle and then I'm going to take some more black Sharpie markers and do swirly spiral shapes on some of the black paint parts...less is more.... And I also embellish it with glittery opalescent nail polish just on little areas here and there like hard plastic hood part and windshield wipers ...that look good

The Archetypal Symbols I see in Tom Petty & Tori Amos by Goddess Kring. Why Tom Petty and Tori Amos are my Favorite Songwriters

zinc and Quercetin

 

zinc and Quercetin

increasing my zinc and Quercetin consumption.  Meat is an excellent source of zinc.
Red meat is a particularly great source, but ample amounts can be found in all different kinds of meat, including beef, lamb and pork.   Quercetin is contained in abundance in apples, honey, raspberries, onions, red grapes, cherries, citrus fruits, and green leafy vegetables. Among vegetables and fruits, quercetin content is highest in onions. The bulb color and type seems to be a determining factor for quercetin concentration in onions
