The Dream of Becoming Invisible

 

On April 19th 1995, a man named McArthur Wheeler attempted to rob two banks in Pittsburgh. Somehow, he had got the wrongful belief that lemon blotted out the human facial traits to the security cameras of the banks. That's why he had smeared his face with lemon juice as a not-in-the-least working disguise. Looking at the photo of him, it's obvious that he would need something else than lemon to pull off that robbery.

McArthur Wheeler isn't either the first nor the last person who tries to become invisible. Ian Whittlesen has even published an occult book on how meditations on the color spectrum can turn people invisible. I have no intentions of trying out his methods, which draw on theosophy and esoteric yoga practices. First and foremost because I don't believe in that kind of things, but also because there may not be any guarantees of how one regains one's visibility again. When it comes to invisibility, I sure want to play very, very safe .... 

Radio waves may be made "invisible" to the antennas that are set to catch them, but still not people. No fairy tale-invisibility as yet, but who knows, that may be the next step in the ongoing development of human skills.

 

On the other hand, there are more interesting abilities to go for. I, for one, would find it more interesting to be able to fly. Just think of the feeling to set off, flapping one's wings and soaring ....

The End of It All

 

That's one of the global fears that people have been voicing for a very long time: The prophesized "End of Times". Some even think that it'll be in our time, although science says it will not be for 5 billion years or so. No matter what, of course we don't like the idea, which turns the very thought about it into something very sad indeed because it causes fears that might have been avoided. As some of these fears may even be lethal, they shouldn't be scorned as "nothing to worry about".

Some years ago I heard of a man who was so very afraid to die in his sleep that he developed a severe case of insomnia. In a way I find that quite or at least somewhat understandable as sleep is the condition that resembles death the most. Besides, some really die in their sleep, which for instance happened to this actor: Ray Liotta died on May 26, 2022, at age 67

Well, that seems to be an OK-way to go when compared to what others have had to endure. Did he have any premonitions of what happened? Not as far as I know, but his death caused some anxiety among some of his fans and friends, who didn't understand how this could happen. I know that the cause of his death was investigated for quite some time until it was determined that it was what's called "natural": No criminal act, but the hand of "Fate", "God" or whatever struck him down.

Some have told about witnessing premonitions of people - and maybe also animals - they know. I once heard a story - and it may be nothing more than that - of an old man who one day started to give his belongings away, claiming that "this was his last day on Earth". To the surprise of his friends and relatives, it really proved to be so: He died that same day.

Well, well, who knows how often something like that happens? Not many, I'm sure, but that doesn't mean that it never happens ....

The Normal Looking Abnormal Guy

Serial killer Christopher Wilder wasn't looking as an ogre or something like that. He may not have been the most charming man on Earth, but neither was he the ugliest nor the most abnormal looking one out to hunt young girls for sex abuse and killings. Nonetheless, that was what he was even before 1984 when he lured 16 years old Tina Marie Risico from a shopping mall by pretending to be a fashion agent looking for young girls who wanted jobs as models.

 

A lot of young girls want just that, as such a job may open new doors for them. As to Tina Marie, then she had had a difficult childhood with various kinds of abuse. Also, her mother had been involved with MC-gangs. Something, which both mother and daughter had had to handle as best they could. 

 

Stepping into the car of Christopher Wilder opened up to new, awful experiences for Tina Marie, but later on she said that the lessons she had learnt from her childhood traumas had saved her from being yet another one of his numerous victims. He raped her several times, as he had done to his previous victims, but he didn't follow his usual agenda of killing her. When she was abducted by him, he had already killed (at least) 8 women, but her personality and behavior made him trust her enough to turn her into his kidnap-helper. 

 

 

 

His preference of young, very pretty girls made him haunt beauty pageants, and at that time his nickname was "The Beauty Queen Killer".

 

Dawnette Wilt

 

Unfortunately, Tina Maria proved to be a good kidnap-helper as she lured another girl of 16 years, Dawnette Wilt, into the Christopher Wilder-trap of kidnapping, raping and murders. However, Dawnette proved to be a tough girl as she survived his stabbing her and leaving her for dead in a wood. When he found out that she hadn't died as he meant her to, he knew that the game was over, and shortly after he, sort of, committed suicide as he died in a police shootout which he might have escaped by turning himself in.  

 

In the end he let his "helper", Tina Marie, go, gave her some money for her ticket home and also suggested that she wrote a book about her ordeals.  

One can't deny that these serial killers "work" hard to get what they want. As most - but not all - of them are men, it opens up to some questions: Would they be "cured" by being surgically castrated? Are they, or their hormones, to be blamed for women losing their lives for their weird sex urges? To blame the hormones, these crimes are being turned into some kind of illness, and that I don't believe. Not to blame the hormones, but the man, the blame rests on personality, lack of morals, and Patriarchal ideologies, so what explanation do we chose? A difficult question which there isn't an easy answer to ....

The Wisdom of Jokes

 

Not the smartest way to put up that banner; let's hope he doesn't fall down and turn it into a joke, which might very well happen. 

Wonder whether that guy even read the text on the banner or just took for granted that he was exempt to accidents. Many people are that way, and annoyingly enough, they often get away with a lot that strikes down those who don't believe they are accident-prone.

 Yup that would be the wise decision, but don't count on it, Buddy! People who "know best" are foolhardy individuals who may take on strong giants if they feel they "need to be told something"

Believe it or not, Moses, I'm siding with you on this one. However, and sadly enough, no matter how right you are, "The One in the Sky" seems to be very set upon this idea which leads to the question "Whoever gave anybody that idea, and what happens to all those loose body pieces???" 

 One of the BIG riddles when one thinks about it. Better not to exhaust oneself with questions about something like that. After all, one of the female saints, Catherine of Siena, seems to have lost her sanity doing just that, as she kept thinking of what became of the foreskin of Jesus. Somehow, she was obsessed with that lost piece of skin, but she wasn't the only Catholic who thought that way, which makes it even more strange.

Yes, yes, I know, it's very unfair, but what can I say, except "Gentlemen, for your own sake watch your step ...."

 

 

Food for Thoughts

Well, people and wizards may plan, but often hunger rules, especially in the world of animals. Something which someone who needs a new brain might not know or even suspect. 

Instead of eating it, why don't you just toss it out with the garbage - or order the Double Cheeseburger you may really, really be longing for? Or what about having a nice fillet mignon and forget all about that salad, which you don't really want? 

On the other hand, being an animal lover - if that is what you are - you may not want meat for ethical reasons, but not eating it also may endanger the animals you care for and which you want to protect from being slaughtered. However, the want for meat keeps some farm animals alive, at least up to a point. Without that want, most of them wouldn't even be born .... 

Yup, there are ways to pose as a vegetarian without being one, if that is what one wants to do. However, this is not a good solution, as this kind of "fluid fruits" has what might be called a "sting", and that "sting" has a way of making it clear to everybody watching you that the one - namely YOU! -who enjoys it, may not be a vegetarian. 

The truth is that your kidneys know and sense more than your eyes when it comes to "fluid fruits": Damn, how annoying!!!!

 

The Sex Fiend In The Trailblazer

Lawrence Gerard Nassar (born 1963) is no charmer, so how did he get into sexual situations with at least 265 pretty girls in the time period of 1996-2014? Well, first and foremost he studied medicine and became a doctor, namely a sports medicine osteopathic physician, and then he got a very prestigious job as the team doctor of The United States women's national gymnastics team. Becoming the team doctor made it possible for him to exploit young and vulnerable girls and women, some of them Olympic and United States women's national gymnastics team gymnasts. 

One of his many victims has told that he always wore a "trailblazer" which she suggested was his way of hiding that treating the girls medically gave him an erection. That's not supposed to be an issue with a doctor, but then he didn't behave like most (?) doctors as he surpassed his role in any way possible.

He used the guise of medical treatment to get very close to the girls, so to speak. Non-erotic sceneries were erotic to him, and he acted upon this wrong impression. Actually, some of his abuse happened right in front of e.g. relatives of the girls who were under the impression that what he did was part of the treatment. Then what did he do? First, there was his special technique of a very intimate "pelvic exam or pressure", but also there was child pornography: FBI found more than 37,000 images of instancies of sexual abuse of children as well as video(-s?) of him abusing underage girls. 

In all, the disgraced doctor, Lawrence Nassar, was sentenced to 175 years in prison. Of course, he will be dead long before, maybe even by assault by other prisoners. In 2023 he was stabbed at least 10 times by another inmate, allegedly because if a lewd remark about female gymnasts. 

It came as a surprise to me, but it seems that he also had some kind of connection to Jeffrey Epstein which ought to be investigated further.

Well, She Earned Her Wages!

 

Are men always like these goggle-eyed "fans" of the pretty, young lady? Maybe not everyone, but many are, and if not all that bad as these guys, most of them don't mind pretending that that's the case as "an eye for the ladies" prove their "masculinity" - or so they think. Anyway, if this male interest earns the young lady some decent wages, and the staring men keep a certain distance, it's more of a joke than anything else. 

 

Just like this one, although the tables have been turned: Here it's not the blunt male staring at an attractive woman, that's the issue. No, it's a guy not taking his own lack of potential as an object of women staring at him into account before passing judgment on the female gender. Something like that is far from his thoughts, as he - being a man - doesn't feel like a sex object. Most probably, he was raised to think that that not only was the main purpose, but also the sole role of the woman. 

 

Actually, it must be quite confusing to that kind of men to find out that in 2025 they are being scrutinized the way they were used to scrutinize a woman to deem her "hot" or not. I think they find out, that although it may be quite nice to be admired for one's looks now and then, at the same time it's demeaning and limiting. Being turned into mere sex-objects many women - and men - are becoming slaves of the opinions of other people in a very personal manner: You are UGLY or just UNATTRACTIVE = Go fuck yourself because as a human being YOU are WORTHLESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of course that's nonsense, but still we see that claim in subtle or non-subtle manners.
