Good Morning Digital Neighbors!! Merry Christmas ADD Irregulars, WSN Aficionados, Friends, Refugees, Phamily, Triggeratti, Seekers and all you new neighbors at Kim Iversen. I don't have a nickname for you all, but I am thinking Common Sensers or No BS Brigade. Time will tell.

Common sense, sorting through the experience, trying to determine the facts and actual whatness of a situation is so essential. I think it is one of the threads that joins all of the Locals communities that I roam. Each community responds to the lies of the Enemedia in its own way, each has its own method of looking at the information at hand and sorting through the Narrative Messaging that takes place every single day.

The asking of questions is so important, and the squelching of questions since 2020 has put the Narrative Wardens, the Cabal of MSM, DC Careerist/Uniparty, Academia, Wokertainment, Big Tech & Big Pharma want to make sure that you are the primary recipient of mushroom management. To ask about the darkness or what you are being fed is not allowed. Some quotes about questions seems fitting as the New Year unfolds and we brace ourselves for a new wave of force fed slants that try to maintain the culture conditioning our "Betters" desire to impart to us. Happy New Year Neighbors! Hope to see you around the Locals biosphere of common sense, questions, laughter and community.

Voltaire's birthday 11-21-1694 - A brief essay by Steve Weidenkopf

Today marks the three hundred and thirtieth birthday of the Frenchman François-Marie Arouet, better known by his nom de plume, Voltaire (1694-1778).

Born into a bourgeois family during the reign of Louis XIV, the “Sun King” (r. 1643-1715), Voltaire suffered tragedy at a young age when his mother died. Never close with his father or brother, Voltaire exhibited a rebellious attitude toward authority from his youth. His brilliant mind was fostered in the care of the Society of Jesus, who introduced him to the joys of literature and theater. Despite his later criticisms against the Church, Voltaire, throughout his life, fondly recalled his dedicated Jesuit teachers.

Although he spent time as a civil servant in the French embassy to the Hague, Voltaire’s main love was writing—an endeavor where he excelled in various genres, including poetry, which led to his appointment as the royal court poet for King Louis XV. Widely recognized as one of the greatest French writers, and even hyperbolically referred to by ...

Good Morning, Digital Neighbors, and Blessed Sunday to one and all!
Sundays are for gratitude, and few things impact our lives more than intentional gratitude. It is not enough to say you are blessed or that you are fortunate; the actual naming of our blessings plants them deep in the heart, transforming us as persons rather than leaving us with the bland “thankful for everything.”

Two years ago, I wrote this reflection on resentment and gratitude. In light of the celebration of our nation’s 250th anniversary, I think it’s worth revisiting. We can choose to be among those who are thankful for America or among those who find nothing but fault with it.

You cannot build a future based on resentments of the past. You cannot grow if you are mired in the injuries of yesterday. God and life do not call us to ignore such experiences, but He constantly calls us forward—to be more, to receive more, to live more. Heal those wounds and work through those injuries, but do not be defined by them, and do not try to ...
