Lines in the Sand

Sometimes I get scared thinking about Amanda Tapping. From the outside, there sure seems to be more going on than meets the eye. It's all kind of sus, and it's like ... almost like a Hive of some sorts.

And the shit they do - well, speaking of Stargate, Sanctuary and Travelers - it always kind of starts so unassuming, almost laughably bad, but then the stories keep going and they sure know how to put together a climax.


I mean, the Ark of Truth was just ... chef's kiss.

And yea, it's not stupid. I mean, You have shit like with Kali in Sanctuary ... which is like ... silly and ridiculous but ... it's not stupid. All in all, it's kind of brilliant.


Sus!


And yea, I can almost feel like ... the Book of Origin being a thing. I mean, it is kind of "Bible-y" but also ... that would practically be an insult. It smells kind of Gnostic-y. I mean, this verbage ... "Line in the Sand" ... I don't want to say that it's Gnostic or too far fetched for a "normal writer" to make use of; I suppose it's a more common phrase; But the passage as from the Book of Origin ... it's something that keeps coming up for me. I almost want to go like "Book of Origin - Chapter so and so verses X to Y" - but then again, there isn't really a point to it. Other than ... applying it.

I understand that my word holds some weight, I think, even if God seems to be the only one to care. And well, I'm following an inspiration here, which is also why I'm currently watching Stargate SG1 Season 10 Episode 12; And while it cuts to a point that I am certainly concerned about, I'm not sure if I can do anything about it. I mean, I've tried and I've tried. It sure would be the time to draw some lines in the sand - but everytime I tried, I ended up alone inside of circles closing in on me.


"Be it as it may" I thought. "You do You" I said. "This shit is Lost" I supposed.


But what am I proposing? I suppose ... to march into the Bundestag, put the traitors to the wall and announce Germany to be a Gnostic Nation now.

To tall? Too short? I don't know.

It is however what my ego demands. Raise the Banner of the Black Sun ... to say that this is a movement for those willing.
Let us strike Friendships with our Neighbours, so they will do the same; Let us make Europe the next Best thing; And let it wash over Africa and soon the entire world.


Let us assume that Soldiers won't raise their arms against us, but rather turn around and join ranks. Let Know How take over our Economies ... and let us surround evil with the Damning voices of Righteousness.

That latter bit might need some extra work, but I'm afraid ... time won't allow it.


I mean, there's something about leaving Evil at the wayside ... and something about those who resist with force; But ... let's not get hung up over details. Or let me not get ahead of myself. Else ... we'll never see the Light of day.


I mean, isn't it the issue, that ... for any step we might take there's the fear of consequences? Isn't that why I'm still here alone, because people worry how the world might react? Like, what some Dipshit on YouTube has to say? How there's this and that issue that would make for terrible optics? How maybe it's still too early? Aren't those, and possibly more, the Lines that You draw? Lines that make me wait and keep me in the dark.

So, how is the Athena Doctrine coming along? Anything?

So, I personally am rather someone who looks for the Lines that draw themselves - for I know I can be both, way too relaxed and way too impatient. I would rush ahead with a demand; Just to find myself in circumstances I'm not prepared to handle. But if the Sword Pointing Skyward was a symbol of Diplomacy - and there is no more way forward - it will have to point Downward; To say that 'now is the Time for our Unity to do its work'.


And badabing, badaboom - one flawlessly drawn Line in the sand. But if there is no such line because there is no such Unity ... then I guess we'll have to storm the Castle another day. But one way or another the Truth will have to come out ... and in the meantime I'll wonder where my Castle should stand. I'm currently thinking Villa Berg, with the Hospital marking the circumference of the circle I want to claim. Beyond that I'm looking at that fancy building You can see from there ... kind of intriguing. But also, this Block I'm currently living at ... it reminds me of a concept I was working on. This place looks pretty much like what I had in mind ... when thinking of some Headquarters ... there to organize the reconstruction. The first thing to be established, the last part to be torn down. Sure we can't just kick everyone out of their buildings and put them into tents ... which is kind of where ... we also first need an agreement of what we want to do. The crossing at Ostendstr. and Hackstr. makes for a good spot for a Gundam ... .

I mean, that's kind of the extent of my wildest dreams. And ... Stuttgart ... could be so pretty. I mean, the first thing I really like about it are the many little nooks - while the fassade is overall kind of ugly. And just in general I'm thinking about tearing down walls, making wider living spaces ... to somehow re-invent communal Living as to overall create great places for Kids to grow up in. I'm sure I'm not stepping onto new soil here ... while every good intention eventually arrives at the dead wall of "reality" where people aren't always like ... they should be ... for us to be able to have nice things.
And yea, Maybe Stuttgart - or to make it sound more awesome: Maregard - is to many regards a Shithole, while there are certainly a great many other places I could fall in Love with - but that's also kind of the point. "Schaffe, Schaffe Haisle Baue". Like, in a way I don't take kindly to the idea that I'm not having 'real plans' or that I'm not thinking big enough. If anything ... I feel like I'm thinking too big, but then again ... I can't complain if nobody sees or shares my vision if I don't share them. And the thing about that is ... I can't really resize them. There is something to be said about making them fit - like, into the Budget or whatever - but for the start, dreams are all there is.

I mean, we storm the castle or ... get there some other way ... and then what?

We get a bigger pool of resources while the problems everywhere ... would still remain the same; For the most part. Church might offer some relief to some folks here and there - but where to build what? I mean, I still fancy the idea of Workshops, Cannabis Chillout Spas, Food Oasis' ... things that in the sense of Capitalism would be 'risks'. Like, say, if Bakeries at the Main Station were cheap, they'd probably more overcrowded than they are already; But do we really need like 8 or so different places? Why not just plonk down a real Bakery and a real Butcher - ... and have it make sense?
And it's ... a problem. The visions might be grand, but practicality often doesn't like grand. It's the tax of comfort. Which ultimately would have us leave things as they are while everything ... breaks and cracks ... little by little because nobody really has any love or passion for the place because it all kind of stinks in one way or the other.

None of these are REALLY our concern right now; And ultimately we'd have to start looking for NEED before looking for its satisfaction; Which means ... Church and what it leads to ... . But what is too big? What is too small? What'll do for now; What really has to change? And I don't want to think in terms of limitations. If we see a place we all agree needs a change ... then that should be enough. But apart from plonking down a concrete Monument to make something look nice, or a fancy idea that may or may not turn out to be useful, ... we need a plan.

That Plan begins with the understanding that relocation is inevitable. If we want to sign up for it. We then need the joints and sinews that can make this relocation work. So, I'm looking at the map, for more or less obvious reasons, and see that this block ... corner Metzstr. and Neckarstr. ... it sits snugly within the circumference kind of ... begging me to do something with it. So, "Logistics Hub" I'm thinking. Then there's three Blocks to the north-west of it ... which may or may not become important aas things develop.
According to City-Planning regarding S21 I understand that the rails further North are planned to be removed, which means we have ample space to do something here. But before we get there ... there also has to be a 'from where to where' ... but before that we need a good idea of what we're actually comfortable with. "Gnosticized Living". I mean, what looks good on pamphlets isn't necessarily good in practice.

Like ... sure. Tear down the walls and build a Terrace next to a Playing ground for ... BBQs and stuff ... but ... BBQ had, and then what? Well ... all I REALLY have, in terms of ideas here, are 'shared kitchens' - and what comes along with it.
And yea, I mean ... I also think there's a lot more to do ... also from personal impulse ... once we start thinking socially as opposed to employment and benefits. But uh ... . Well ... anyway ...

That Hotel whre Landhousstr. meets Urbanstr. is another point of interest for me. I mean, it just looks good ... though for an HQ ... or something ... I have the feeling that it might overall be a bit shoddy. But the whole area is just ... kind of gorgeous. I mean, the whole "East Cirquit" of the 42 line is.
But so, unfortunately ... this line of reasoning kind of exists outside the realm of rationality.

So, I guess ... there's a couple of things - which roughly align with the demands of an economy. First there's the 'what' - tied to its 'where'; But that's what roads and public transportation are for. A part of it however ties over into the next, which is: Why would people want to be ... here or there. And here is where the timelines split; I'd say. The one way would be to accept that this is Bullshit, which is where we prefer to sink away into our own little Box and somehow let things sort themselves out - or not, whatever - or we find the common impulse, if it exists, to not sink away into our own little boxes and find common grounds. What would at first look like a small commune when putting it on paper, should eventually grow and evolve to something more massive - and that would be ... the new home; The new way of life.
