This is really going to be just a fun stream of THOT (incoherent ramblings from that hoe over there), so I hope that you are ready for the roller coaster.
We are 67 days away from the inauguration of our 47th President of the United States. We are 41 days away from Christmas. We are 14 days away from Thanksgiving, and I’m going to tell you the real story about America. Because this bullshit that I read every day has got me tired and pissed off.
The story of America didn’t start in America. It started in Mesopotamia with a family that did two things well: they fucked and they fought. I wish there was a nicer way to say it, but as a 13th generation American I can prove that the capitalist system has a set algorithm that when hacked will give you the keys to kingdoms and the keys to nuclear launch codes, but it is so inefficient and will cost you your soul.
Welcome to the Space/Military Intelligence Learning Experience (S/MILE)
IMMERSIVE LEARNING AND CAPTURE-the-FLAG EVENTS
We will dive into a world of quantum intelligence, ethical social engineering, and ethically hacking the U.S. Government by looking through the Library of well known, not-so well known, and obscure stories of the queer and macabre. We will look at the world of espionage, back handed deals, and the trafficking of souls from the “underworld.”
Teaches critical thinking, information operations, and entrepreneurial skills, along with, media arts, digital literacy, and emotional intelligence
Follows the history of communications technology through the eyes of a family that has travelled the universe using ethical social engineering to make friends, learn new skills, and care for each community that has welcomed them
Potential to partner with vulnerable communities to rebuild and secure their critical infrastructure
Provides access to quality learning and upskilling courses, industry best practices, and historical after actions
Don’t forget to S/MILE… it makes them nervous!!!
In the beginning…
The first story I want to look at is the first story in the Book. “In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth. The world was formless and empty, the stillness hovered over the waters; then God spoke.” You see the voice is a very powerful thing that when used properly will make mountains move and the earth shake. I’m going to teach you how to use it properly.
Some individuals have hacked the system, and I need some help to get the system back in working order. I’ll be sharing information as I can because my access is limited, but I hope that I’ll be able to train you up before the start of the new year and hopefully we can save the world by getting the No Kings Act passed before inauguration day. The No Kings Act would: Reaffirm that Presidents and Vice Presidents do not have immunity for actions that violate U.S. criminal law. No President or Vice President (former or sitting) would be entitled to immunity from criminal prosecution for actions that violate the criminal laws of the United States.
Personally, I’d like to add some others to list (like the Equal Rights Amendment, the Women’s Health Protection Act, and the Trans Bill of Rights), but to do all of that before January would just be showing off. The problem we face is that someone got it in their head that being President meant you were God and therefore above the law when I know that to be completely false. I know God. I love God. I speak to them daily and sometimes nearly constantly; but I have digressed.
God created the world and then built garden where it was safe to learn, grow, and play… Then one day when Adam was being especially mean (he was Eve’s older brother after all) and made Eve doubt her goodness, Eve reached out so she could know for certain the difference between what was good and what was evil.
When Eve took the fruit to Adam, she wanted him to see that she was good, but when God showed up she learned that Adam had already decided that she was evil. Adam removed Eve’s voice by speaking first and pointing blame, forcing Eve to become defensive.
Women have been playing defense ever since. They have been taught to be silent, reserved, and to listen. We have been listening for eons about how dirty and sinful our bodies are, but every day a Voice breaks through the noise: “You are beautiful.” The still whisper that spoke all of life into existence. “I created you. You are perfectly imperfect because where there is no growth there is no life… you were meant to grow and change the world.”
This call has been carried by the wind, across the desert sands and oceans and through the trees. Can you hear it? As we move into the cold, dark months, I’ll be sharing stories of women finding their Voice, communities coming together, and all the good that is still in the world. My hope is that you will learn and grow and begin to prepare yourself because the moment a woman finds her Voice is the moment they become an unstoppable force.
What is next?
The first goal is learning to be self-sufficient. Your Voice sounds different when you are confident and comfortable in your solitude.
When you are able to care for yourself, it’s time to learn how to care for others. This step is difficult because you have to learn how to care for others in a manner that strengthens their autonomy not diminishes it.
When those you care for become self-sufficient, you help them learn how to help others. The cycle continues – each one, helping one – until we can all be self-sufficient.
I do not want my children to need me; but, I do want them to enjoy time together. If they need me all the time, I lose my autonomy of self to focus on their needs. At the same point, if my children are struggling I want them to know they can count on me. This is the struggle of being a parent, and it is not a life for everyone.
What am I looking forward to?
The cold, dark months are my favorite where I curl up by the fire with a book. I’ll be sharing some of my favorites as we go, but when I was separated from my baby girl by oceans and deserts. I would send her videos of me reading to her (Thank you USO!!). I’ll be making more videos for all my trans babies who may not have a mother to teach them how to survive in this cruel world, so watch for those.
Tonight is the last full moon of the year. It is the Beaver Moon and is the fourth and final Supermoon of the year. According to the Farmer’s Almanac, “This is the time of year when beavers begin to take shelter in their lodges, having laid up sufficient food stores for the long winter ahead.” Beavers impact their ecosystem the most out all the other animals (except for humans), and it is said to be a time of building and preparing.
To see the commonalities of nature to human society is rare for most because we have become a people who rush through our to do lists, but it is important to understand what is occurring in the world right now. The 47th President is building his Cabinet and the rest of the world is preparing their defenses… to include those individuals in the United States who think differently from the individuals assuming the highest earthly authority we currently have.
The thing to remember is that changes take a lot of time and very little ever gets all the way through the system in four years; but that does not mean that individuals won’t try. When hateful individuals attempt to assume control, the fall out tends to last longer than the individuals actually maintain control. We are going to help you get through whatever fall out comes, but I need you to trust me and I need you to learn your Voice. When you know your Voice, you can tell when others attempt to control you.
What are we doing?
A Home for the Holidays – Community Support
According the 2019 Point-in-Time (PIT) Count of Persons Experiencing Homelessness in the District of Columbia by The Community Partnership For The Prevention of Homelessness released in May 2019, there were 6,521 homeless people on the streets of DC the night of that report, including 608 persons who were unsheltered, 4,679 in emergency shelters, and 1,234 in a transitional housing programs.
Following an approach used in Finland, the Hive Social Garden is raising funding for a Housing First program in Norther VA, providing housing immediately and without pre-conditions to residents in need. The underlying principle of Housing First is that having a stable and secure home is a fundamental human right and a critical foundation for tackling other issues contributing to homelessness, such as mental health issues or substance abuse.
According to the National Alliance to End Homelessness, a chronically homeless person costs the taxpayer an average of $35,578 per year. Chronic homelessness refers to people who have chronic and complex health conditions including mental illnesses, substance use disorders, and medical conditions who experience long-term homelessness— and can be found sleeping on the street or in shelters. However, costs on average can be reduced by 49.5% when these individuals are placed in supportive housing. Supportive housing costs on average $12,800… That equates to $22,778 wasted funds.

The Sisterhood: The Secret History of Women at the CIA
Liza Mundy (Crown, 2023), 452 pages, illustrations, index.
Reading this book made me realize how far we have come and how far we still have to go. As a member of the Intelligence Community, the toxicity of the masculine need for competition, control, and power seeps into the foundation of every system built. It drives us forward, but at what cost?
Our women are left bleeding picking up the remains of what lives have not been destroyed by war, and still today there are women and children suffering and being sold as slaves to powerful men who use them as cannon fodder. It started with the Great War then continued with the War to End all Wars which in my opinion has yet to end; it has only transitioned through locations as fascists continue their pursuit for god-like powers by limiting access to life-giving care and information.
The difference is that now we have a strong sisterhood that has emerged from the ashes of wars and are now leading the fight against those who try and silence us.
