Stealing a Page Out of Smorgasbord?

I’m calling bullshit on this, and if they’re giving him credit for coining the phrase, Generation Alpha, then I want the credit for coining the phrase “Generation Alif” named after the first letter of the Arabic Alphabet. Generation Alif would be those born from 2011 to 2026, a fifteen year period. I discussed that in my book. I don’t know Mark McCrindle personally, but his book, Generation Alpha was published on April 28, 2021, according to Amazon. That’s 2 months after Smorgasbord A Collection of Thoughts Experiences and Stories hit the shelves, yet he claims his inspiration for writing his book came from 2008? I Doubt it. What took so long? Olympia Publishers in London received a full copy of my complete manuscript on June 1st 2020, almost one full year before Mark’s book came out.

I don’t know, and so I’m not going to accuse, but it seems awfully funny how all of a sudden they’re giving credit to this guy, Mark McCrindle, for coining the term Generation Alpha, for those born between the early to mid 2010s to the mid 2020s to early 2030s, or whatever his years are.

If you bought Smorgasbord A Collection of Thoughts Experiences and Stories, then you’ll see the chapter titled LAMANNA (written in Greek letters) with the picture underneath that says Generation X.

In that chapter, which of course, was of my own original creation with an original thought process on how those generational years could or would align, and how they could be termed according to alphabets from around the world.

I don’t know when that Wikipedia article was published, although it was just edited 10 days ago, and there’s a lot of sources at the bottom of the page that are either right around the time my book was in publication or after it was available for purchase. The Wikipedia link is below.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_Alpha

That Wikipedia article is claiming that the original idea of Generation Alpha came from a survey in 2008, conducted by an Australian consulting agency called McCrindle Research, which he conveniently is the cofounder of.

He’s also claiming his inspiration came from his own book, The ABC of XYZ published in 2009. Maybe it did.

But something is definitely not right here.

I wrote my chapter in my book without any sources because all my thoughts were original. I’d like to see this original survey conducted by McCrindle Research from 2008. I’d also like to see proof that McCrindle Research was an official company registered back in 2008.

And even if all that is proven, I’m still calling bullshit on this. If he’s getting credited for coining Generation Alpha, then I should be credited for coining the term “Generation Alif” named after the first letter of the Arabic Alphabet. Generation Alif would be those born from 2011 to 2026, a fifteen year period. I’d be more than happy to share my thought process behind writing that chapter, and how I arrived at my discovery.

Like I said, I don’t know Mark McCrindle personally, and there’s no way my manuscript was compromised while at Fulton Books, however, Olympia Publishers, located in London, did receive a full copy of my completed manuscript way before his book was published. I sent the full complete manuscript for Smorgasbord on June 1, 2020, to Olympia. Maybe the leak is there. I’ll figure it out sooner or later, and this is not a far reach.

The Road Less Traveled

I’ve never really been into this blog, or the books I write because I wanted popularity or fame. Whatever comes from it, I’m willing to accept because hosting a blog and writing books are outlets that have opened up for me. Yes, there was a time when this road was closed, and I knew I had the ability to write when I was 6-years-old, but it took 40 years for me to write my first book.

We live in a country where we have the right to speak our minds, and share our opinions and feelings as right or wrong as some people think that is. And that’s what I do. I do it through blogging and posting videos and through writing books. Believe me, it’s not easy, and I know a lot of people understand that. I think the dialogue has evolved over the years, but there was a time when people were called crazy, they were told they lost their minds, and some have even lost their jobs for saying they saw a UFO. I just heard the Russian government wouldn’t even allow the public to talk about UFOs until 1989, but this isn’t about UFOs.

Understand, anytime you have an open mind, there will always be people who will try to fill it with bullshit they’re selling as truth. If you’re an independent thinker, and you have you’re own way of arriving at conclusions you believe in or information you find true, there will always be someone there to tell you it’s false.

It’s not an easy road, but nothing ever worth having comes easy. Of course, I can put the television on and watch sports on the weekend, or tune into the news hosted by CBS, MSNBC, Fox, or CNN, but that’s what everybody does, and so that’s what’s considered “normal.”

I’m gonna keep walking this path though.

They say every road that led to hell was paved with good intentions; Now, I don’t know where this one will end, but when I get there, at least I can say, shit, this was my decision. This is the real road less traveled.

Revisiting the Gaslight

You’re having a conversation with someone and they say, “Call me whenever you have time.”

And you respond, “Okay, I’ll call you later.”

And then they say, “What are you talking about, I didn’t tell you to call me.”

Gaslighting is someone’s intentional attempt at making you question yourself. Are they trying to make you seem crazy? Maybe. I don’t know and I can’t say what their intent is, but you’ll know.

Heart of Gold

I’m going out on a limb here, so just follow me for a second. People have always said or expressed their opinions about something special in the one of the front paws of the Sphinx.

I guess lets start with Neil Young’s song, “Heart of Gold.”

We have a heart of gold, a golden heart, or just the connection between heart and gold.

Next, if you look at constellation Leo, or if you’re already an Egyptian enthusiast, then you will know Regulus is the brightest star of the constellation. Regulus is also known as the heart of the lion, but it’s not anywhere near where the heart would be.

If you look at how the star dots are connected, Regulus is where the front paw would be.

I’m going out on a limb here, and I’m going to say there’s gold buried under one of the front paws of the Sphinx.

Now, if I could only get over there..

❤🦁🐱😻😹❤💛♌

This doesn’t have anything to do with the above post, but I noticed Joe Biden and I have our North Node on the star Regulus at 29 degrees in our birth charts. The North and the South Nodes of the moon are also referred to Cauda Draconis and Caput Draconis. The North Node is, Cauda Draconis, which is Latin for “head of the dragon” and the South Node is Caput Draconis, which is Latin for the “tail of the dragon.”

So, to have your North Node exactly on Regulus, is a special alignment because that nodal point is where the moon crosses the ecliptic or the path of the sun. It has and it will continue to be interpreted in many different ways. Personally, I think it signifies, through proper action of course, the capability or at least the possibility of bringing into alignment the head with the heart. It’s the mind-body connection only needing the spirit to be complete.

Check your charts to see where your nodal points are.

Before I end this post, I would like to thank all of you; friends, followers, fans, Joe Biden (lol just kidding) and supporters. Nooz Buffet just his 10,000 views tonight, and I think that’s awesome, and of course, only possible because of you. Thank you, I love you all, and I appreciate your support.

The Sun’s Transit into Taurus

We have eight more days of the Sun in Aries. According to most sources supporting the Tropical Zodiac, the Sun will begin its transit through the astrological sign, Taurus on April 20th. Keep in mind, in the Tropical Zodiac, astrological signs and actual constellations don’t always align, but that’s not an issue.

So, the Sun enters Taurus on the 20th day of April. The symbol representing Taurus is the bull, and a bull can be both fierce and gentle. Aries is where the zodiac commences in the 1st house, so Taurus would be the natural 2nd house. The sun’s energies and qualities blend with that of Taurus and the combination manifests in the arena of possessions. What do you have?

Taurus is a feminine earth sign that’s fixed, and those born under this sign will be celebrating their birthdays between April 20th and May 20th.

Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and harmony, rules over Taurus, which is kind of funny because we don’t think of love and beauty when we think about bulls, but in terms of the house the bull rules, it fits quite perfectly. In the house of possessions we acquire those things we consider beautiful or that which we love because they bring a sense of harmony into our lives and our environment. And the key word there is sense because Taurus is an earth sign, and the element of earth is about sensibility where happiness is gained through flexibility.

There’s a connection between what we possess (2nd house) and beauty (Venus) and our senses (earth). Does it smell good? Does it look good? Does it sound good? Does it feel good? You get the point.

For those of us who are born when the sun was in Taurus, we have the will power and energy to fill our lives with everything pleasing. To go after our love! And that’s the struggle for the bull who is seen as a ferocious creature. To show the world that looks are deceiving, and I’m not the man or woman I appear to you to be. There’s more to me. Love and money are in focus here.

Happy Birthday Season to all you Bulls out there!

❤🌞🗽♉🤞

Moon Scope; “Hold on Loosely, but Don’t Let Go”

April 10, 2022

Today, the moon entwines with the Lion. If you’re in a relationship where you’re now holding on because you’re on the fence about something, you’re being asked to stick it out. Leo can be quite fixed in his ways, but that’s not always a bad thing. Sometimes we hear something that upsets us, and as a result, we’ll make a rushed decision.

In Leo, the moon will have a reason to let the storm blow over, and make a better decision when the time is right.

Do something for yourself tonight that makes you feel glamorous and good. You can be expressive with flair, and maybe that’s through words, writing, or new clothing.

Tonight, when it’s 10:00 PM on the east coast, it will be 7:00 PM on the west coast, but the moon will be in Leo in the 9th house. The discussion focuses on going back to school to further your education, or enrolling for the first time as an undergraduate. Traveling is also on the agenda, so if you have ideas about taking a trip this spring or summer that’s perhaps across the country or to a foreign country, tonight is the perfect night to bring all that up. It’s already the 10th of April!

Secrets and anything hidden from you comes to the surface tonight. As 38 Special said, “hold on loosely, but don’t let go.”

The labels of democrat and republican have become the front for an opposition between good and evil. We have to become masters of discernment. We really do. This is about humanity, free thought, and independent thinking. The right to free speech in this country guarantees us the opportunity to speak our minds and share our opinions. Everyone has the right to do so.

Think in terms of equality and what’s fair. You can’t shut down someone who thinks differently. Not everyone is bad, and not everything is fucked up, and conversely, not everyone is good, and not everything is amazingly wonderful. There’s a middle road here.

And don’t blame everything on the government either. We are a nation of citizens.

Art is an outlet. It’s a creative expression unique to the individual.

Straight Up Racism Here

You won’t see this in the mainstream news.

This is an older story, but the link below will take you to an article where students at Notre Dame are calling for the removal of all books penned by white authors.

https://www.lawenforcementtoday.com/notre-dame-students-demand-all-white-authors-be-removed-from-curriculum/

Again, here’s another slippery slope, but this is college. There’s really nothing inappropriate here according to age or development. The left claims to want to end racism is this country, but again their methods are purely racist.

People, we have to approach this situation with an open mind.

Slippery Slope With Book Banning; Wake Up Young Americans

I don’t know, I guess the “loyal to crown” state of Pennsylvania is proud because one of their school districts is leading the nation with having the most banned books?

The original article was posted on ABC 27 Dot Com, and written Lauren Rude, the link is below.

Pa. school district leads nation with most banned books: report (abc27.com)

The point that’s absolutely necessary to make immediately is this:

When the North American continent was overrun by Spaniards and Europeans, this is going back to before the colonization took place, the first two things they did.

  1. Slaughter the indigenous squatting population who wouldn’t follow the orders and mandates to just move on their own.
  2. Burn all their books, manuscripts and written records. Out of sight, out of mind was the theme, and this was because a new regime was coming on stage.

It is imperative that people wake up to this; if the state board of education is banning certain books in schools, then that means they’re getting the order to do so by the Federal Government.

Now here’s thing, I was a teacher. I understand what it means to teach material that’s age-appropriate and developmentally appropriate. Anyone who truly cares about children understands the importance of allowing them to grow naturally. And by naturally, I mean having the chance to form their own opinions through their own real life experiences.

I don’t really know if being the leader of banned books is something to be celebrated. Art is an expression, art has value, and it is only through art that we truly come to understand the opinions and feeling of people of the times.

Those books that are banned should be quadruple checked to make sure they’re in fact both age and developmentally appropriate, and not another attempt by the far left to censor free speech and silence writers who oppose this leftist fascist regime.

That’s what’s going on people. There’s a movement in this country to silence free thinkers and crush independent thought.

You must be cautious anytime there’s a mass movement to ban the personal expressions of people.

I mean what’s next? Burning books? That’ll take us back to the Salem Witch Trials and beyond; back to like year 1200 maybe.

Equality in America 2

Wow, no one participated in the poll!? Interesting. So, why does the left constantly demonstrate the behaviors they argue against? You claim to fight for equality, no labels, accept everyone, open-mindedness, and treat everyone as equals, but then you go do the same things you say are wrong. I don’t understand this. Do you argue for how you want everyone else to behave, but that doesn’t apply to you?

In Equality of America, I asked my audience to take a poll and respond to;

If a white Vice President, asked white Senators to write letters to white children, would you say that’s an example of systemic racism in our country?

Of course that hasn’t happened, are you kidding me, but the opposite has. Is it still wrong?

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/jackson-confirmation-harris-asks-black-senators-write-letters/story?id=83962300

And they say Kamala Harris isn’t very popular amongst voters nowadays. According to Rasmussen Reports Dot Com, fifty-seven percent (56%) of voters now view the vice president unfavorably, including 47% who have a Very Unfavorable impression of her.

I wonder why.
