We're not ready to live through what's coming. I'm not. I live in a village and no one I know has the chops to program drone swarms. My possessions are scattered across three towns and five sites. I don't have a lab setup where I am producing drones, and don't even know where my tools to do it are presently. I am still in hopeless disarray after having been evicted last fall, and I barely managed to save most of my possessions from Evil, Inc. Three months from now I will still be screwed when the hammer falls, and I saw this coming and undertook to prepare. Most everyone I know didn't and hasn't.
Dear @valued-customer !
Were you forcibly evicted from your home?
I guessed that you are currently in financial difficulty!
Yes. Last November. I talked to one of my former neighbors today, and four of the tenants there have been diagnosed with cancer since I left, two of them with brain cancer. He said I left just in time. I hope he is right. Sometimes the worst things that happen to us are blessings in disguise.
While I am actually not in financial difficulty that is because I base my economic wealth on goodwill, rather than financial assets. While I was earning goodwill today repairing a fence I was working with a man that aided me greatly rescuing my possessions during that eviction. Then another man that aided me greatly during that eviction happened to be driving by, and he kindly brought me a delicious beverage, which I greatly appreciated. Goodwill has far greater benefits than mere money IME.
However, the tractor was pounding the steel fence posts into the ground, and I was positioning them for the tractor driver. About halfway through the repair, one of the steel posts struck a rock, bent, and shot the ~1 1/2 meter steel tube that it was in at me with great force. I saw it out of the corner of my eye while I was moving away from the heavy equipment and managed to block it, preventing it from striking me with full force. Even so, my wrist hurts a lot, and I am concerned that I have sustained skeletal damage, since it hurts more and more as time goes on. I was only able to work on four other jobs after finishing the fence repair, and may have to take a couple days to heal, or worse, go have it examined by a doctor to see if one of the bones in my wrist is broken.
Fortunately, I didn't get hurt worse, which I would have been had I not deflected the steel tube, and I have DMSO and four bottles of whiskey, which should mitigate the pain for at least a day or two.
Despite my terrible flaws, the universe has been very kind to me today, and I am very grateful for your concern, and my good fortune.
Dear @valued-customer !
I was surprised to learn that you are currently living a very difficult life!
I remembered that you work as a carpenter!
I pray for your blessing from god!

I didn't see any photo. You appear to have successfully got rid of it. Sometimes it takes a bit of time for your cache to refresh, and items that aren't actually there anymore still appear to be.
Hope your feeling better? That DMSO is good stuff keep applying it.
We are doing well. Now 7 of us. Just remodeled my kitchen and was able to have 2 of my 3 boys help me.
We are about to relocate overseas.
Have you read "Beware the World to come"?
What about "Invisible Rainbow History of Electricity and Life"?
Good to hear from you, and happy your family is hale and well. I haven't time to do much reading anymore, and am spending as much of what I have on helping my neighbors enjoy their homes and lives, as that is as close as I can reckon is my purpose. It's the height of summer and the busy season here, and I am overwhelmed by too many summer squash and cucumbers, as I have never had a greenhouse to grow them in and dramatically underestimated their productivity when availed nominal heat. Too much of a good thing is still too much, but my neighbors benefit from my learning.
I have read excerpts from 'Invisible Rainbow', and amply beware the coming global totalitarian tyranny, although specific details certain to be related in the cited work will escape me. I have realized I can only maintain so much detail before it becomes a surfeit, and focus on creating a foundation of production of necessities and developing goodwill in the community, as whatever specific insults and injuries arise, those will be the most likely sources of effective reaction.
I was alarmed to find DMSO, despite being an effective tonic and medication, is quite effective as a solvent, when I spilled a bit on a finished cabinet and it peeled the finish. Made me question my sanity for a minute, but it's health benefits have been well demonstrated, and I realized I am not comparable to industrial chemicals.

Thanks, you are still as reliable and sincere as you have been since I started reading your texts.
