Kari Dangler and moi

bitten and other angry birds and drunk mosquitoes vagrant arts and spiced up crafts productions,…

Karen Livingston, Stephanie Hoops and Dianne Lawson Baker like this.
Pat Guest Raindance is messing with Mother Nature just like your comment about mosquitoes. Be careful what you wish for. The love of your life cannot be helped by you or anyone else until she decides to help herself. Best of luck with your trials. God bless.

Sloan Bashinsky Hi, Pat - interesting observation, rain dance. Maybe I’m wrong, but I doubt such a dance has an effect, if it is not okay with the spirit world. You are right about Kari, too. I’ve been with the love of my life before, different woman, and it didn’t work out, and she was not an addict, at least not a chemical addict. She had addictions to her religion, capitalism. Din’t mix well with being with a man being run by angels, who could care less about those addictions. What a trip, my life.

Sloan Bashinsky Pat, did you ever see the movie, “The Emerald Forest”? In it, a young white man, who was abducted by a South American Amazon wild tribe when he was a tot, and raised by them, and learned their ways, uses shamanic methods to create a huge flood, which takes out a new dam on a river, and protects that part of the Amazon for a while longer, from further ravaging by civilization. I walked with a Lakota Sioux woman about that movie, said to her that it was a nice story, but that stuff didn’t ever happen. She looked at me, said, I was mistaken; that sort of stuff indeed can happen. I dunno, as driven as Key West and the Keys are to develop and develop and change what Mother Nature created, perhaps it wouldn’t be terrible for people, who have the ability, to throw up a few road blocks. A different form of guerrilla warfare, a different kind of insurgency. Surely the white folks didn’t expect Mother Nature to play by their rules? Surely the city officials didn’t expect street people to play by the city officials’ rules, when the city officials bend their rules to suit themselves? It’s fun thinking about weird payback, even if it don’t happen.

Sloan Bashinsky This morning at Winn-Dixie, Kari found a new bird feather, which she said was a bad feather, it would produce a hurricane, and she was not going to use it. I showed her this FB thread. She laughed. Perhaps these ladybirds had something to do with it .

Wjames Baldwin are these representative Drawing’s of the Angels?
- Sloan Bashinsky One can only hope , although I always viewed the drawings as shaman drawings, living, pro-active visions, which had their own agendas; but that seemed beyond most people’s jargon/perspective, and often I called the drawings, soul drawings.
- Wjames Baldwin So you have never seen them? only heard or felt their messages?
- Sloan Bashinsky I feel them when I’m drawing them, or rather, they are drawing themselves through me. I get messages during the drawing time, and afterward, about them/their drawing. Then, they come back around from time to time, as they, or something, stir. The angels are much more noisy, coming at me in every dream, of which I have several each night and even in nap dreams. And sometimes they come at me in waking visions, sometimes I hear them in plain English, when I’m awake, more often I hear them in plain English, when I’m asleep. They have other ways of sending me messages, when I’m awake, usually physical sensations, sometimes with electrical component, or chemical component. The drawings, however, are smooth and gentle, feel invigorating, and they take their own form and shape. Seldom do I know what any of a drawing might look like, before it starts coming through me. Sometimes I have a vague theme, or a vague image. Sometimes they tell me what’s coming in, how to handle it. It’s an “ah, ha” knowing, not something I hear. I get lots of “ah, ha” knowings out of the blue, without drawing anything. A bit different than before the angels arrived in early 1987 and initiated the “new regime”, which has been seriously difficult, with some fun, if I am able to maintain a wry sense of humor.
- Wjames Baldwin interesting… ever hear anything about John Keel and his book Mothman Prophecies?
- Sloan Bashinsky No, googling only brings up sketchy information. What’s the gists of the Mothman Prophesies. I’m being run by angels, but I have had direct ET encounter. And some direct demon encounters. Mostly, I encounter demons though people they are running, usually the people are unaware of being run in that way. But not always. According to the SPEAR OF DESTINY, by Treavor Ravenscroft, Hitler knew he was being run, as did his top henchmen know they were being run. Demons ran G.W. Bush and his henchmen, into the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Doubt Bush was aware, Cheney and Rumsfeld might have been aware. Demons ran Barack Obama to continue those two wars and accept the Nobel Peace Prize, while doing so. Demons ran Lyndon Johnson et. al. to war in Vietnam. Prophesies are a slippery slope, as all who have tried to unravel the Book of Revelation in the New Testament have proven. In one of his letters. Paul told his followers they should stop having sex, because Christ’s return was imminent and there was no point in producing more children. If Christendom had stopped having sex, it would have died out, waiting on Christ to return.
- Wjames Baldwin Well, I would not be quit sure how to explain what is essentially an unexplained phenomenon. People claimed to have seen this Creature or Being before a bridge collapse at Point Pleasant West Virginia.
  That said, some of your drawings are reminiscent in feature if not in bearing and presence, as described by the witnesses.
- Sloan Bashinsky This “creature” below managed to find me on Facebook about the time I was moving into a paradise mating relationship with Kari Dangler, who is homeless and has plenty of other attributes, which this “creature” seems to present. This photo was taken over Asheville, NC, where my younger daughter lives. She and her sister, and their mother, already had prepped me in dreams for the relationship with Kari moving deeper. I knew when I saw the photo that I was looking at a supernatural being, and that it either was Kari, or her soul, or it was running the production, which was her and my being paired. And that it would be an … interesting … adventure. Other adjectives also seemed applicable … wild, stressful, testing, beautiful, ecstatic … wild. I don’t get much in the way of “end times” or “earth change” prophesies. Just what’s coming my way, and often I don’t understand the message until what it messages arrives and is engaging me, and vice versa.
- Sloan Bashinsky some other “visions”

Wjames Baldwin Well I like the drawings but that picture of weather is just photoshop, and there are claims that it was “taken” in dozens of places. Double Click on the image and select, Search Google for this image.Best of luck to you and yours.
Sloan Bashinsky I thought maybe it might be photo shop, too, but I know what the angels of capable of, and how they can use people, and even machines, to send messages to me, in ways nobody else would grok. They have me surrounded. I have no way to run. 🙂

Wjames Baldwin I understand, and my comment was meant to be only instructional not judgmental.
Sloan Bashinsky I took it that way, and was glad for the information.

Continuing my conversation with amigo Jerry Weinstock, M.D., Psychiatry, reported in yesterday’s sea, land and air fantasies, and other death-defying feats – Key West post at goodmorningkeywest.com, Jerry wrote:

Hi Sloan—I get migraines and constipation —so take your pick-
Klonopin 1 mgm at night-you won’t feel it and will not alter your cognition
not alter your brain activity but will ameliorate your bowel problem-moderate the GI tract-lasts over 12 hours..

I have had deep loves before marriage-that were concluded catastrophically—so that is life
and Love with women—-I have my share of disasters -we are members of the same club.

There were some transcendental times also.-we survive -found a beautiful wife ultimately-luck
referred by an former girlfriends mother that really liked me. Law practice -maybe not your nature.
got to go-Jerry.

[As I recall Jerry telling me, he practiced psychiatry more than 50 years in Key West and the Florida Keys, before he retired. He treated every writer in Key West. He was the school districts’ psychiatrist, also. He started programs in the Keys, related to mental health, including MARC House in Key West, and the Guidance Clinic (Rehab) in Marathon. Today, Jerry still sometimes sees private patients, but mostly he is doing all he can to fish, and to enjoy and protect Mother Nature, with his lovely wife, Donna. They used to be avid divers, but gave that up when Jerry got really sick after diving off of Fort Zachary Taylor State Park, in Key West. I met Jerry about a year and a half ago, after hearing of him through a mutual acquaintance, Sandy Downs, of Cudjoe Key. Sandy said she had meet Jerry at “cruise ship” meeting, and I needed to meet him. I found Jerry and I seemed to be the only rabid opponents to cruise ships and various other rapers and pillagers of Mother Nature in the Florida Keys and elsewhere. Jerry wrote a book on that global disaster topic, now with a publisher, moving toward publication, I hope.]

I replied:

Hi, Jerry - I had to beg for Klonopin in the state mental [where I had creatively managed to get myself, after telling a story in a private hospital of my first encounter with angels], so I could sleep at night. Usually, the night doctor relented about 1-2 a.m., and wrote the script. I think it was .5 mg. Then, finally, I’d doze off for a little while, maybe 2-3 hours.

I’m super sensitive to both anesthesia and narcotics. During the black night, 1997-98, when I was having night terrors and horrible white hot sores in my throat, caused by Zyprexa and/or Zoloft, and I was terrified of going to sleep, and had trouble going to sleep, my psychiatrist prescribed Zanax, and I took only half a dose one evening, and was loopy through the rest of the next day and night. A couple of tries at that, I stopped the Zanax and went back to suffering.

Before I started practicing law in 1973, a psychiatrist prescribed Valium, .5 mg., 3 times a day, as I recall. It eased the bowel discomfort. Finally, I was taking 1 mg, 3 times a day, as I recall. It seemed to be getting out of hand, so I stopped taking it regularly, but maybe once a week, when I was as tight inside as I figured I could stand, I took a .5 mg tab at bedtime, and the next day went okay, and then it started moving back toward not okay, then to awful. But finally I stopped doing even that, I just didn’t feel right taking pills for what I knew was coming out of my psyche.

Later attempts to treat it with yeast medication, meditation, various diets, herbs, germanium, eastern exercises and esoteric technology sometimes brought relief for a while, but then it went the other way really bad, and I had to discontinue treatment just to get back to feeling awful again.

That’s how I learned the symptoms were produced by something intelligent, which was not going to let me treat it in any conventional or unconventional way. Some of the recoil against treatments was really bad. And, finally, I gave up trying to treat it.

Maybe something will show up in a dream tonight, about this.

I think any man and woman who stick together for a long time and are still enjoying each other’s company are to be envied and applauded.

I concluded I was not cut out to practice law, it was going nowhere, I was going down, and that’s why I stopped doing it. Might have gone differently, if I had gone straight to being a country lawyer, after graduating from law school, and maybe it would have gone straight to hell. I’ll never know.

I still do plenty of it today, but don’t get paid. If I got paid, I’d be practicing law without a license. But any damn fool can give legal advice, lay people do it all the time, and it’s not practicing law, if the fool isn’t getting paid for the advice :-).

Ciao,

Sloan

SLOAN: I understand all that you have written—-you have a sensitivity -in your nature —in your make-up—that relationships, goals, natural world ,
love, art , music , good food , security, books, and even psychotherapy are to be your sources of comfort, peace of mind —etc. — cheers -Jerry

I replied this morning:

Morning, Jerry -

The angels do psychotherapy on me ongoing, the take no prisoners kind. I keep wondering why they don’t do it on everyone?

Agreed, I am super sensitive, which, I imagine, provides fertile ground for all sorts of psychosomatic adventures; I think that also might be called “conversion disorders”?

Nothing in my dreams last night about Klonopin.

A big upheaval with Kari yesterday. I said what I needed to say, my bowel released, finally. I had a decent, mostly comfortable night’s sleep.

Today’s another day, as various time clocks tick away :-).

Maybe more later.

Sloan

15 Quotes From Einstein That Show Why He Was Intelligent Beyond the Universe’s Bounds
Posted Mar 20, by Dominic Trombino
Hmm, this Einstein guy was pretty smart and had some pretty great ideas.

1. When discussing his own talent

“I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious.”

In a letter to Carl Seelig in 1952

2. On segregation

“There is separation of colored people from white people in the United States. That separation is not a disease of colored people. It is a disease of white people. I do not intend to be quiet about it.”

From a lecture at Lincoln University in 1946.

3. When asked how he’s doing

“I am doing just fine, considering that I have triumphantly survived Nazism and two wives.”

In a letter to Jakob Ehrat in 1952

4. On the paradox in his own life

“To punish me for my contempt of authority, Fate has made me an authority myself.”

Aphorism for a friend in 1930

5. On working alone

“I am truly a ‘lone traveler’ and have never belonged to my country, my home, my friends, or even my immediate family, with my whole heart. In the face of all this, I have never lost a sense of distance and the need for solitude.”

From The World As I See It in 1949

6. On the dangers of war

“You cannot simultaneously prevent and prepare for war. The very prevention of war requires more faith, courage and resolution than are needed to prepare for war.”

In a letter to Congressman Robert Hale in 1946

7. On the mysteries of religion

“The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed. This insight into the mystery of life, coupled though it be with fear, has also given rise to religion. To know that what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their most primitive forms— this knowledge, this feeling, is at the center of true religiousness. In this sense, and in this sense only, I belong in the ranks of devoutly religious men.”

From Living Philosophies in 1931

8. On if he identifies as a German or a Jew

“I look upon myself as a man. Nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind.”

To The Saturday Evening Post in 1929

9. On his *unique* personal style

“If I were to start taking care of my grooming, I would no longer be my own self.”

From a letter to Elsa Lowenthal in 1913.

10. On reading

“Reading after a certain age diverts the mind too much from its creative pursuits. Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking, just as the man who spends too much time in the theater is tempted to be content with living vicariously instead of living his own life.”

To The Saturday Evening Post in 1929.

11. What other job he’d like to have

“If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music … I cannot tell if I would have done any creative work of importance in music, but I do know that I get most joy in life out of my violin.”

To The Saturday Evening Post in 1929.

12. On receiving praise

“The only way to escape the corruptible effect of praise is to go on working.”

13. On the meaning of life

“What is the meaning of human life, or of organic life altogether? To answer this question at all implies a religion. Is there any sense then, you ask, in putting it? I answer, the man who regards his own life and that of his fellow creatures as meaningless is not merely unfortunate but almost disqualified for life.”

From The World As I See It in 1949.

14. On his own fame

“The cult of individual personalities is always, in my view, unjustified. To be sure, nature distributes her gifts variously among her children. But there are plenty of the well-endowed ones too, thank God, and I am firmly convinced that most of them live quiet, unregarded lives. It strikes me as unfair, and even in bad taste, to select a few of them for boundless admiration, attributing superhuman powers of mind and character to them. This has been my fate, and the contrast between the popular estimate of my powers and achievements and the reality is simply grotesque.”

From The World As I See It in 1949

15. On education

“School failed me, and I failed the school. It bored me. The teachers behaved like Feldwebel (sergeants). I wanted to learn what I wanted to know, but they wanted me to learn for the exam. What I hated most was the competitive system there, and especially sports. Because of this, I wasn’t worth anything, and several times they suggested I leave. This was a Catholic School in Munich. I felt that my thirst for knowledge was being strangled by my teachers; grades were their only measurement. How can a teacher understand youth with such a system?”

Published in Einstein and the Poet: In Search of the Cosmic Man in 1983

Kari, with the horseshoe tattoo, sez one of her ancestors was married to King Henry, who had her killed because she did not give him male offspring; he killed a number of wives for that reason, Kari said. And one of her ancestors was Jesse James. And another was Mark Twain. And, she says, my role in life is to shake things, and between us, we could shake things real good. I said the way to shake things is to stand in front of a mirror, and get to really know yourself; that’s what the angels have been doing to me, since they first showed up in late 1987.

That’s all for today, folks.
