Each post is crafted and I call them bleeks. Find yourself reading more than one? Understand social power I seek.

Influence you can feel on your return. Learn then how social actually works.

For freed minds escape from social media grind is so sleek.

Spooky season actually is part of same pre-Solstice traditions! When folks would gather around for scary tales.

Notice here in US? So much with bales of hay is associated with Halloween 🎃.

May you shriek with delight with coming of the night! 👻

Light of the world shine on me. Love is the answer--lyric from England Dan and John Ford Coley song.

I consider a Christmas song though suspect that might irk some.

But that's thing about music as is subject to interpretation.

So yeah December 25th has symbolism goes back thousands of years. Though many tie to religion now.

Other nugget from DeepSeek:

By choosing a date just after the solstice, it literally and symbolically captures the idea of "the return of the light" at the darkest time of the year.

From DeepSeek on December 25th:

It's the moment when the tangible, astronomical reality of the sun's return—the "Unconquered Sun" or Sol Invictus in Roman tradition—aligns with the theological concept of the "Sun of Righteousness" or the "Light of the World" in Christianity.

From ancient times holiday season starts after fall harvests and extends to just beyond Winter Solstice.

The various traditions may vary but that's gist of it; however you celebrate, or not.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

We shall have a mature world. As ancient tales return to full value.

Truth shall be better known of who actually said what.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

That disdain for cultures from Europe is sad. Check history on stories.

Is like how Indians? Are actually people from India.

Why did that ever become a problem area?

Ask Europeans or yeah can coddle British as if...they're so tedious really.

Oh, and Aladdin is actually from a story from China. Arabian Nights has mixture for some reason.

I think original is beautiful about spirit of a lamp and eternal flame...but I'm scared to check!

Cinderella is also from China. Some cultural obsession with tiny feet. It's um bloody.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Perspective. I knew from ancient stories there couldn't be much difference between angels and demons.

Think about it.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Demons are very interesting. I think about them a lot.

Always seemed to me from stories? They were the fun ones. Yeah.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

That's so funny to me. So yeah usually with stories of the Jinn?

They'd kill asker. They were demon gods. Of course is a trap. Of course.

Europeans softened them up for some reason. But look at Europeans now?

Yeah. They um yeah you know? If you know? You know.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Will learn power, again. As your ancestors understood.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Why y'all accept bizarre stories of magical "genies" who are powerless but powerful?

Is a modern tell.

You are mostly adult-babies who can't handle reality. Who imagine weakness as power.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Yes gods can lie. Some fearsome demon god tells some silly yarn about being trapped in a bottle?

What damn fool would believe that?

The lie is just the beginning though.

How mortals respond to lies is where story get interesting.

Dream on modern mortal fools. Requests you'd make? Instant death.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Stories are way different when realize is a trap: be careful what you ask for...is ancient aphorism.

Ancients knew you don't just get something for nothing.

Modern mortals generally talk like fools and would probably most likely never pass.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Mortals imagine asking for three wishes in this time period as if is a fantasy.

There's no respect for demon gods.

Jinn were terrifying. Plus say wrong thing? They'd kill you.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Is amazing though how much can simply leverage appreciating intelligence.

On a planet where many dismiss its value.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Am feeling more relaxed now and yeah definitely want you to recognize that effing up?

Is not a good look.

Got braggarts of this dismal time period who should be hanging heads in shame.

None of y'all are...I will try to rip on you less. But greatest of all time?

Sigh. Talk is easy humans.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Earth people? Just need an adult to help them out.

You will be helped.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Billions of humans will get more money starting now. But most of your global problems are not about money.

Are about bad decisions by people with money--especially lots of it.

There's a simple fix for that though.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Gonna get global economy going first. Yeah I have a plan.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Why humans of this time period believe anything is a puzzle for future humans.

You really are out there. Got bizarre beliefs especially about own importance.

Will help you, poor things.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Y'all gonna get smarter, God help me. And She does. Does not bother with y'all either.

God has better things to do. And is not really Her responsibility.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Got suckered saving money for system in US that encourages chronic illness to get that money from old geezers!

US has most expensive...is not really healthcare--is parasites going after big piggybanks of suckered.

It will not stop until common sense returns.

James Harris @jstevh.bsky.social · 4d

Isn't that fun? Real deal actually can make things more interesting.

Got lots more cool things coming.

Many more humans will have more money and I need you...um I need nothing!!! Um.

Can understand? You make money to spend.

Is value exchange. Capiche?

Saving for retirement? What's that?

Think.
