Keep telling us as it is Todd, don't be bothered by those who feel uncomfortable when they are faced with the truth. Real Shrews are grateful to be forewarned. That's where our strength lies.

The watchman on the tower has one job-to sound the warning. It’s not his (yes, his) job to provide the battle plan. He warns about what he sees.

You’re doing your job

Another timely article Todd. Maybe for some people they feel the urgency is behind us and that you should be painting rainbows and unicorns but in reality, we are just stepping into the reality of what the goal is. We can not sugarcoat what is happening and what has been happening especially since 2020. With all this artificial intelligence and digital this and that, we are going to find ourselves locked into a hell, in my opinion. As with everything that has happened in the last 5 years and for many not being able to see the dangers of the jabs and the uselessness of the one way arrows, masks, and social distancing - it is many of those folks who can't see the next step into a hell they are creating. I don't dwell on this stuff all day but like you, I want to have my head out of the sand, to see what I can do to avoid it all, if possible. For the odd reader who leaves, it is their choice. Don't worry about it (I'm not suggesting you are lol).

Oh, Todd, I am so sorry!

I have some urgent stuff to do now, but I hope to return soon with some positive (or perhaps very rude!) thoughts.

Stay strong.

You're OK - it's 'them!'

Very good article. It is interesting, because being a "doomsayer" appears not to be necessarily correlated with being a "sheep" or a "shrew'. One of the problems that I have frequently seen with sheep is precisely that they tend to be "doomsayers": the "virus" is out there, so we need to wear masks and get "vaccinated" every 4 weeks; the CO2 level will increase from 0.4% to 0.5% so we have to prevent cows from farting; for 50 years they have predicted that Florida will be under water within a decade... Then shrews can be terrified of "the agenda" controlling us. I personally try to avoid living in terror about anything. I am 72 and have lived through so many predictions of the end of the world, and I am still here.

That said, I enjoy your writing a lot. Your articles contain a lot of truth; I will keep reading although I choose not to be a "doomsayer". Like Mary R said: Be awake... do not despair.

I have been feeling the expression of the shadow deeply these past few weeks.

Great article ! I think the “ challenge “ through this maze is to be awake , acknowledging the realities of what is in front of us while not succumbing into despair …..not easy
