Cautiously Optimistic : The Memory Remains // The Three Woes

"What are the Three Woes?". After I felt free from the Squid-Monster, the inspiring tug came upon me to write of it, trying to connect the dots between 'it' and the Woes. I had an idea, but so - before we go on; Here's the thing: I am most definitely 'the Prophet'. And that is possibly the briefest and most on point explanation as what this first Woe means.

So, for Your convenience: The three woes are part of the 7 Trumpets. They start in Revelation 8 - with Revelation 8:13 being the first mention of woes. 9:12 markes the first, 11:13 the second and the third is a bit of a mystery that would invite people to jump to conclusions. I wrote an interpretation of the 7 Trumpets (2025-08-30) which ... may be kind of iffy; For as from me, it's all in all just theory and interpretation.

So, just earlier I was working my way backward. Starting with the third, calling it the Squid-Monster and then thinking of what the other two might be. Thus, looking for the same kind of Bullshit, so, systems in the world that darken the Light and sully the veracity of the Bible, the answer I had was: The first is the Antichrist and the truth of the Roman Catholic Church - not so much in respects to them, but more so in respects to the knowledge of them in context to the state of the world. But after doing some reading up I felt that my take there was convoluted and ... difficult to follow; So I basically stopped writing and tried to shrug it off.

Now I'm here, yet again, based on this insight that ... me being me; Which is complicated; It says the same thing, about the first woe, but from a different perspective. I wouldn't think much of the one or the other thing that crosses my mind; Writing of this and that - and all in all that would leave a sea of nooses one could hang me from. Like, multiple times over.

So You're not inclined to believe me - but what You find out there is most certainly not IT. "Either".
So, the first four Trumpets are easy and straightforward. We can equate them to things in the past - shit that just happened in "the wake of my arrival".

My interpretation follows the logic that the Trumpets are more specific to things "God has been doing", but not so much actively. Like ... pollution isn't God's work per se, but the logic behind it, the things that physics does, the use that we get out of stuff ... it is like a gift from God.
On the other hand I think of the fifth and the sixth Trumpet as for once the Culture War and then the Geopolitical struggle for Dominance. So, in a way we can think of the Squid Monsters when speaking of the fifth Trumpet - but then again: If we think of it as just that, where does that leave me? With those not having the Seal of God on their forehead. Which is how the "Book is Closed" - Bullshit has arrived - and that's the first Woe. "The Usurption of the Sound Teaching" basically.

The problem here is what 'damage' (or however Your translation puts it) refers to. I mean, it is difficult not to think of the Squids when reading this passage; And any attempt by me to hold on to whatever interpretation I did have previously seems to be weak in comparison. But there is an originator behind those Squids still. The Star could be the Keys that allowed him to create them. In Verses 6-10 we get a description; And not all of it applies to the Squids. So I was thinking "Film Indsutry perhaps". My attention went to "people will seek death but won't find it", which aptly describes how I felt having to bear all this Culture War nonsense. It's ... tiring and I want it to stop but then, it's not serious enough to kill myself over. The Squids then, more to the point, would be their tails. So, for whatever damage was done to me, it wasn't like ... real harm. However often I got to a point where I had to re-evaluate this and that ... the conclusion was always the same. Down to the part where You'd be left thinking "duh, Squiddies!". But if You look at the actual Teaching put forth, or where I stand ideologically, so, my intellectual and ethical and such integrity, it's still very much unharmed. Unless You want to say that ... me being stressed out, one way or another, disqualifies me.

So we then move on to the sixth Trumpet - which is that now actual war joins the Culture War - we all see it happening, we know what we should do, kind of, but nothing changes.
Then there's the Angel with the Golden Book and the Two Witnesses - which I previously interpreted as Epstein Bullshit - the two Witnesses effectively being two Books that sit at the heart of the Culture War or so ... the Anti side of it (Transphobia and Misogyny) ... at the end of which we have the Second Woe.
So, if the first Woe is "Theological Bullshit", the second would be "Cultural Bullshit" - or think: AI Slop and what was AI Slop prior to AI Slop. Like, yea, here I'll say it: The Elder Scrolls. But just overall ... all the Bullshit that kind of qualifies as "Art and Culture" but really just ... undermines society and drags us down into the sewage of intellect, taste ... any kind of "higher standard" we might have outside of stupid, superficial bullcrap. Yea, like also most advertisement these days.

And with the Seventh Trumpet - I don't know. We have a convergence here. I would assume that the Squid Monsters have basically broken containment, the interpretation put forth does no longer hold up, You've all been had and I lay here waiting for my death. What follows is what follows ... I read no more into it for quite frankly - I've had enough of this Bullshit that's all so utterly beside the point it makes me wanna throw up.


Peace!



Am I now an expert in Squidology? If what it takes to be considered one, is to start the presentation with a long-winded explanation of how You'd rather kill Yourself than have one of these things inside of You, consider me an expert.

Except, and You all had plenty of reasons to believe that this was coming, in hindsight it wasn't too too bad. Of course my years and lifetimes of training - and the boons I collected throughout - have played a helping hand in the matter; And without them, well. I would have made it "so far" until loosing my mind.
I'd still be stuck ... and it'd probably take me month for what would be baby steps of progress.
