I woke up today and felt another slowdown of time ugh – deep frustration – not all mine. A strong sense of “NO” coupled with a need to escape – crawl into a corner and just be left the frig alone. Eat muffins. Watch movies like field of dreams over and over. Listening to a nice dreamscape channel with the title of the music selection the past week “calm before the storm”. No joke!
How are ya’ll feeling?

Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi says she will dissolve parliament on Friday and call a snap election for February 8.
Ms Takaichi will seek voter backing for increased spending and a new security strategy that is expected to accelerate Japan’s defence build-up.
The snap vote will decide all 465 seats in parliament’s lower house and mark Ms Takaichi’s first electoral test since she became Japan’s first female prime minister in October.
Remember, Japan is the largest holder of US Treasury Bonds. Wonder whose bonds were sold off….👀
On January 21, 2026, Japanese financial markets experienced significant volatility, characterized by a sharp, partial rebound in bond prices after a massive sell-off, while stocks continued to decline for a fifth consecutive session. The market turmoil was driven by fiscal concerns, a tumbling yen, and anxiety surrounding a snap election and potential trade tariffs.

Reports from early January 2026 indicate the Trump administration discussed offering direct payments of up to $100,000 to each of Greenland’s approximately 57,000 residents to encourage secession from Denmark, though this was a discussion, not official policy, and was firmly rejected by Greenland and Denmark, whose leaders insist Greenlanders are not for sale and their self-determination is paramount.
Key Details:
The Proposal: U.S. officials reportedly considered offering $10,000 to $100,000 per person to Greenland’s citizens (around 57,000 people).
The Goal: To incentivize Greenland to break ties with Denmark and form a closer relationship with the U.S., leveraging its strategic Arctic location and resources.

This discovery addresses one of quantum physics’ biggest challenges—maintaining information integrity even when part of a system fails.
Unlike traditional quantum states that collapse if disrupted, W states allow quantum information to survive partial loss. This makes quantum communication more stable and brings futuristic technologies like ultra-secure networks and quantum internet closer to reality.
Important Details:
• Breakthrough achieved using W state quantum entanglement
• Improves reliability of quantum teleportation
• Prevents total data loss if one particle fails
• Advances quantum communication systems
• Supports future quantum internet development
• Major step in applied quantum physics
This research shows that quantum science is rapidly moving from theory to real-world technology—reshaping how information may travel in the future.
Listen to this beautiful piano that inspired me to begin saying “17 Seconds To Anywhere” – Liz Story. Imagine where you would go – in 17 Seconds. With teleportation, anyplace is possible. I told my daughter today, who, of course, thinks I’m woo-woo mom, forget planes. Buses. Cars. Trains. In the near future, we can travel ANYWHERE we want -quickly – w/o TSA groping us.
It all leads to this simple place for me, this space within, that quietly tells me:
I want to live and thrive. Just not here in this reality.
And it is fucking crushing me to see my kiddo suffer the same – only it’s different for her as she really doesn’t believe the world will get better. So that’s why I say fuck this plan.
I went searching for some TLC. Some kind words. Big accounts saying we have to be there for one another. Which really means: “You have to be there for ME”. Instead, I get silence or unhelpful advice about trying to be a parent in this reality, which is hard as fuch in my particular area. Have my kiddo read a book on war.
Dude – she’s read Art of War a dozen times. Me twice. Does it help?
No.
For we are far more than logic. Far more than frontal cortex reasoning. We aren’t soldiers who have had our emotions frozen out of us.
We are HEART.
We are SOUL.
We are EMOTION.
PASSION.
NEEDS.
WANTS.
And when that entire part of our Being is being dismissed and harmed and neglected and gaslighted and poisoned and controlled, plus demanding we fucking hand over our money so we can survive, no book is going to soothe that pain.
It’s like we’re all musicians being told we need to know how to perform delicate surgery in order to make it through this process. With no training.
For now the storm rages on and I am now suddenly hearing Frozen’s “let it go”.

Climate executives spill SECRETS about “Carbon Taxes,” weather modification, and chemtrails. A WEF climate elite who works with three-letter agencies and @DARPA discusses hidden plans about “artificial rain.”
THIS is one of the best Q/JFK/Trump/Plan sleuthing’s I have seen. She does really good work! And I am doing my own adding with some amazing synchs I didn’t even see coming until the Universe just guided me a long.
“The International Netherlands Group (ING Group) is a global financial institution, formed in 1991 from a merger between Nationale-Nederlanden and the NMB Postbank Group, which offers financial services such as banking, insurance, and wealth management, but after a split in 2014, the insurance activity is now under NN Group, while ING Group focuses entirely on banking activities.”
“In November 1998, John F. Kennedy Jr. attended an elegant party hosted by the legendary Fendi sisters in Rome, creating one of history’s most unexpected and poignant encounters when he found himself face to face with Aleida Guevara, daughter of Che Guevara, the Marxist revolutionary whose ideology stood in direct opposition to everything the Kennedy family had fought against during the Cold War. The moment carried extraordinary historical weight, as Aleida’s father had helped establish the very Cuban government that John’s father President Kennedy had attempted to overthrow through the disastrous Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961, an operation that remained one of JFK’s greatest presidential failures and a defining moment in Cold War tensions. Yet in the sophisticated surroundings of the Fendi celebration, with Alda and Carla Fendi serving as gracious hosts, these two children of famous revolutionary figures connected over the shared burden of living under the enormous shadows cast by their legendary fathers. Aleida later told The New York Times that she and John discussed the unique challenges of being offspring of men who had changed world history, and she described him as a beautiful person, revealing her ability to separate the charming man standing before her from the president who had authorized military action against her homeland decades earlier. The photographs from that evening capture something rare and precious, two people whose fathers had been ideological enemies meeting with genuine warmth and mutual understanding, proving that the next generation need not inherit the conflicts and divisions that defined their parents’ era. John’s presence in Rome that November evening, mingling effortlessly between Italian fashion royalty and the daughter of a Communist icon, embodied his unique position as American aristocracy without pretension, someone who could bridge worlds and generations with natural grace that made even the most unlikely connections feel inevitable and right.
The legendary Italian fashion designer Valentino Garavani, known simply as Valentino, passed away today, January 19, 2026, at his home in Rome at the age of 93, leaving behind a legacy of glamour, iconic red gowns, and dressing royalty and Hollywood stars for decades.

I felt a shift overnight into this morning.

Stomach growling – which hasn’t happened in a very long time. I couldn’t get enough food in me – even after a meal, I had to eat a protein bar and chocolate.

Now and then, I will go looking to see what the rest of humanity is feeling. Support boards. Community boards. Local talk. That sort of thing. And I have been a bit surprised, perhaps it’s relief, to see a new trend of talk: people not wanting to leave their homes. World is too scary and crazy.
😨
I’m reflecting on this, even as I type. I feel it too – growing. As one who is highly sensitive (which IMHO just indicates you have a knowing about the hidden things of this reality and as such isn’t really a “special” title), I have long dealt with this desire to just stay home or close to home. Some call it agoraphobia. Fear of being “out there”, trapped. We are often told fear = false evidence appearing real.
Today? I say bullshit to that. Just another new age feel-good philosophical narrative designed to make those of us who ARE sensitive to the hidden evil here feel with the knowing something ain’t right about this place feel even more isolated, alone, crazy for how our bodies feel. AND a knowing we are in some way trapped inside of this snow globe, surrounded by a consciousness energy that has no compassion, care or concern for us. YUG!
I see more and more people “becoming” (Awakening) to it all, hence they too are feeling the need to just be at home where it’s safe. Safer shall I say.
For now, humanity is feeling this entire Snowglobe being shaken. For some it’s subtle (that sense will grow), for others it’s strong, almost violent. When we were told to take the 40,000 view, there was a reason for that statement. While we are inside of this space together as a collective, we can still practice being the Observer.
I’m also wondering if this “stay home/close to home” is serving another purpose – to get humanity out of the way of outer happenings for when things really “hit the fan” – AND Shift. The Sky Event moment. The moment that captures the attention of every one of us. For now it is building up leading to moments of “*%@!! would someone just stop shaking the damn snow globe?”
I just want some Peace of Mind.
The lyrics of the song are powerful in their truth:
Now if you’re feelin’ kinda low ’bout the dues you’ve been paying Things is coming much too slow And you wanna run, but somehow you just keep on stayin’ Can’t decide on which way to go, yeah-yeah-yeah
I understand about indecision But I don’t care if I get behind People livin’ in competition All I want is to have my peace of mind
If ever there were words and a time that coincide EXACTLY where I am now, this is it.
We fake it, don’t we?
We fake being ok with this compete and pay to live b.s.
Go along with it because hey, we have to eat, right and what other options are there, really, no matter how “off grid” we go?
I’ve never been one to fake it. Because, well, it is FAKE. A fake, unnatural state of being. Doesn’t align with the Soul.
Indecision too. How many of you are feeling that indecision? I sure am. As in BIG TIME.
That indecision is a result of this place and all of its rules. Can’t go THERE because of this damn “law” of “theirs”. Can’t afford to go THERE because hey “they” decided to have this little pay to live game where some places are intentionally created to keep out others of less $tatus. Can’t do THIS even though it’s what you’re good at and enjoy because either you lack the skills “they” say you must have, lack the $$ to get yourself into that position of being seen and let’s be honest simply not enough spots because it all operates on COMPETITION.
Thinking of another song lyrics: You can’t always get what you want. But if you try sometimes you get what you need.
I never did like it. WHO is to say what it is I or any of us truly need? I’ve come to see it differently though – considering it was played at those Trump rallies. The lines were also used in a GEORGE News Publication in one of John’s Editorial Letters. Evil wanted us eliminated. But they aren’t getting that. Instead they are getting what they need – removed, eliminated. Mirror.
That said, we’re still in it, still bound by “their” rules and competition.
For now, we survive in this ever-shaking snow globe. Doing the best we can. Faking it as best as we can. Deep breathing and 40,000 foot observing. Which sucks the more one is Awake and longing for something we can’t quite fully remember (or maybe some can – I can’t seem to get into that full remembering just yet). But just like we know, the more we have Awakened, that this reality is absolutely utterly NOT HOME to our Souls, we also know this experience is temporary, we will break out of here, we are getting help in doing just that.

Some images I’ve seen in recent weeks have been staying with me.
Images of women, mostly white, having meltdowns. Public rages.
At the time I saw this, the comments were full of “crazy white liberal women”. And yet, I saw a bit of myself in these women.
It isn’t just the “crazy white liberal women”. It’s people of all ages, all ethnicities. Who isn’t feeling the intensity of the world? Of this Awakening?
I believe what we are feeling is, in par,t our own inner trauma coming to the surface. The words we did not share. The thoughts we kept to ourselves. The emotions.
And to add to that, we are literally unplugging from a reality that had our minds held captive, where we have been programmed from birth, fed lies and illusions by the system – the matrix computer – which wanted us to believe what we saw and were told was Truth. Unplugging the mind from all of that programming is tough as hell on its own. But add in the traumas that we all experience, some far less, some far more, and you just add in more emotional intensity during the deprogramming process.
This is an inside and outside experience. Seeing truth out there. Seeing truth in here (touching my heart).
Given I can only speak as a woman, I will share what I feel is happening with many of these “white liberal women”: A lifetime of neglect. A lifetime of abuse. James Brown, as much as I love his music, that dude was spot on when he sang, “This is a man’s world.” It has been. The energies of it slant heavily towards the masculine. Competition (for EVERY fucking thing). Pay to live, which forces us to hustle every day to DO DO DO. Slay the dragon. Get ‘er done. This is how this reality operates.
And as a woman – none of this aligns with me. It all feels so unnatural. Incomplete. While men may question the system as well, they are far more biologically designed to be a part of that system. Just ask any parent: “How do you feel when your boy goes out alone? How do you feel when your girl goes out alone?” We know the stats. We KNOW how it is and who is more vulnerable to assaults, attacks, abuse.
Women are the nurturers. The caregivers. We have innate abilities to resolve conflict peacefully. We seek to connect. It’s BIOLOGY.
NONE of these energies is included in the pay-to-live competitive system.
As women, we have had to fake it.
And given the time we’ve spent hiding and pretending, the time for fake is over. And now, all of those years, those decades of frustration we have hidden and faked it just to keep up is coming out.
Add in the years we spend raising our children, being told it is REAL work while we don’t get nearly the same respect for it as a worker out in the “real” world, we’re f’ing tired.
Remember when that video came out with Trump talking about a woman’s private area with that derogatory term? Remember the rage? I pretended not to feel any of my own. Even though I supported the man, when I heard that commentary, it brought up the numerous times my personal safety boundaries were violated, and all I heard was “that’s just how guys are”.
Yeah, NOT AN ANSWER.
This is just an example, of course, but I think we need to listen to these “liberal white women” just like we need to listen to ANYONE on stage now, protesting, lashing out. While I get that propaganda can indeed incite violence, quite often there is already something within that individual, an unresolved trauma, that has been triggered that needs to be seen.
Safety.
Space held.
To know, hey, it’s ok to feel this way.
Until we start doing this, until we can strengthen ourselves up enough, see our own inner triggers, and begin by holding a safe space for ourselves, as men and women, we will continue to judge those we see as behaving in a “crazy” manner.
When maybe they have a story to tell.
Something worth listening to.
And something to teach those of us who, for the moment, believe we have ourselves all under control.
Until your insurance denies the request for braces for your child.

Informed that the cost is $8900 with payment plans available up to 10 months.

It’s all an illusion.
Until you are informed, the school of her choice is $36,000/year, and there is no $$ aid available for transfer students.

It’s so long they aren’t even f’ing giving a time period.
All of the above was just discovered today.
But it’s just an illusion.
Trust the plan. Until you get nailed again with the realities of this “illusion”.
It’s just an illusion.
Until you decide to venture out again and check out the cost of housing, and see that it simply isn’t coming down. It started to, I got my hopes up, then stalled, then went back up again, and homes now sit empty for months, owners refusing to make a deal with you. I’ve reached out and asked. No to each request. Are they even human?
But it’s just an illusion.
Until the new training idea you came up with late last year, after an agency dropped the ball on you so often you were not able to get your application for $$ in on time, and the other agency that said they may be able to pay for this new training, is now singing another tune.
But hey, it’s all just an illusion, right?
Until your mind breaks down and you find yourself alone at a park, eating a meal alone, staring at the black sky. Numb. Absolutely n u m b. Trying yet again to figure out a way out of your current situation, your brain is completely unable to come up with something new.
I reached out to one of you last night. And the term you beautiful Soul gave me described me to a “T”.
