Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

It was just embarrassing today. Thanks for posting this memorable clip.
I’ve studied this film over and over. I reflect on it to be reminded of how absurd it is to endure the nonsense from those who think they have some semblance of goddamn authority.
It’s an excellent illustration of why it is sometimes extremely necessary to speak very loudly and also carry a very big stick.

L.A. fires discussion
(4) Tucker Carlson on X: “Michael Shellenberger may be the best reporter in America. Here’s what he’s learned about the fires in Los Angeles — and about UFOs. (0:00) How Many Fires Are There? Where Did They Come From? (3:03) Are Meth Heads Lighting the Fires? (14:56) DEI Fire Departments (34:44) Leftists https://t.co/CeY1e3sWKm” / X
Following New York Post articles, attention for source of Palisades fires is shifting to New-Year fireworks up at a park frequented by teens (probably drinking and carrying on)
That fire was put out by fire companies but the idea is that embers in the ground were re-ignited when the hot, dry Santa Anas started to blow hard
This is how paranoid this old girl is getting. When “they” say look here, I look over my shoulder to find the truth – sad, I know. I just don’t believe too much of anything anymore, except God’s word and His Truth. It is becoming self-evident.
nimrodman: The winds were cold, not hot. The entire period before, during and after the fire was and continues to be cool, with overnight temps in the low 50s and, in the hills, probably the 40s, or lower. Seasonal, but cool. Some of the commentary about the Palisades is dead wrong.

If I Only Had a Brain – The Wizard of Oz (4/8) Movie CLIP (1939) HD
“…..and starring Joe Biden as the Scarecrow, who is looking for a brain.”
It is due for a “reboot” & Brandon would make the perfect scarecrow.
Last remake was The Wiz in 1978, plenty of actor/actresses/behind the cam peps, will be needing employment … in un-burnt Georgia Or Canada locations.
They might need to skip a few parts in the movie tho, especially for people of short stature, & some sort of stand ins for those flying things.
Obama could be Oz… ha ha ha ha!!!
Perfect!
LOL! Biden has no brain, no heart, nor any courage. He’s a composite of all three Wiz of Oz characters.
That’s the first time I’ve seen Harry’s video, and it reminded me of another video using ape characters from way back: Ernie Kovacs’ classic “Nairobi Trio.”
Loved The Cranberries – “Linger” was my favorite. She had a phenomenal voice. Very ethereal.
I have a Karaoke customer that does it … perfectly, have to see if I recorded it in one of those good nights of having alot of talented people show up.
See if she shows up tonight, I’ll request this, see if I can get the laptop to cooperate @ recording tho.
It is a favorite song she does but she stopped doing it when her brother died (probably clot shot), she has just started coming back to karaoke again & dedicating it to him.

Harry Nilsson
(1941-1994)
American pop and rock singer-songwriter (“Everybody’s Talkin'”; “One”; “Without You”), dies of a heart attack at 52
Biography: Born in the Bedford–Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, and raised in a broken home, Harry dropped out of school a moved to Los Angeles. He found work programming computers for a bank at night, and pursued a singing career by day. He possessed a wide vocal range, and fell into songwriting when improvising forgotten lyrics.
After working on demo recordings and releasing a few singles, and having The Monkees cover his song “Cuddly Toy”, he signed a major label contract with RCA and resigned from the bank. His early RCA albums were critical, if not commercial, successes, and caught the ear of Beatles press agent Derek Taylor. Soon after, Paul McCartney and John Lennon endorsed his work, and his career took off.
He did not enjoy performing, and never toured. Part of his recording process involved multi-tracking his own voice in a choral fashion, which could not be replicated on stage.
His biggest hit singles, both of which won Grammy Awards, were cover versions – Fred Neil’s “Everbody’s Talkin'” (from the film Midnight Cowboy) and Badfinger’s “Without You” (on his career defining album Nilsson Schmilsson). As a songwriter, his biggest hit was by Three Dog Night covering “One”.
The follow up work to his biggest success was decidedly less commercial, the album Son of Schmilsson contained lyrics not suitable for broadcast, and then he made an orchestral album of torch song standards (A Touch of Schmilsson in the Night). His increased drink and drug usage began affecting him, and culminated with him working through severely injured vocal chords on his Pussycats album, produced by John Lennon during his notorious ‘lost weekend’ in Los Angeles.
After Lennon’s murder, Nilsson largely stopped making new music and became a gun control advocate. His musical output was mostly concentrated on film soundtracks.
In 1976, he married for his third time, to an Una O’Keefe, an Irish woman who was a student-waitress when they met at an ice cream parlor in New York City in 1973. With her, he had 6 of his 7 children.
Bankruptcy and a 1993 heart attack motivated him to get back to recording in order to support his family. He was working on an album when a second heart attack in 1994 ended his life. 25 years later, his finished vocals were given some backing music, and the album “Losst and Founnd” was released.
For the Love of Harry: Everybody Sings Nilsson, a tribute album featuring Nilsson’s songs performed by Ringo Starr and Stevie Nicks, Brian Wilson, Aimee Mann, Randy Newman, Jimmy Webb, and others, was released in 1995, with proceeds benefiting the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence.
A documentary film,” Who Is Harry Nilsson (And Why Is Everybody Talkin’ About Him)?” was produced in 2006.

Dolores O’Riordan
(1971-2018)
Irish musician and singer-songwriter (The Cranberries – “Zombie”; ,”Linger”), drowns in the bath at 46
Biography: Dolores O’Riordan was an Irish singer and songwriter, best known as lead vocalist and lyricist for the Cranberries. The band earned worldwide fame with their hit single, “Zombie,” in 1994. The song was inspired by the Troubles, the conflict in Northern Ireland from the late 1960s to 1998, in which more than 3,500 people were killed.
The Cranberries released a total of eight studio albums, first coming to fame in 1993 with their debut album, Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can’t We? They followed this with No Need to Argue, which featured “Zombie” and was their best-selling album. O’Riordan also released two solo albums, one in 2007 and the other in 2009.

{ https://www.winterwatch.net/2022/12/dahliagate-homicide-detective-claims-his-father-committed-notorious-20th-century-serial-murders/ }
“In 1949, Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) detectives placed Dr. George Hodel, Jr. (1907-1999) on the top of the list of suspects in the gruesome dismemberment of Hollywood actress of Elizabeth Short, which is more widely known as the Black Dahlia murder. Dr. Hodel was questioned but never charged.
In a strange twist of irony, Dr. Hodel’s son, Steve Hodel, himself became a LAPD homicide detective. After his 24-year tenure with the department and starting in 1999, he delved deeply into the Dahlia case, which in turn led to other unsolved murders, and came to the conclusion that his father was most likely responsible for Short’s death but also numerous others spanning decades.
…
A simple search of YouTube will produce results for several one-hour interviews detailing Steve Hodel’s journey down this rabbit hole. I have to commend him for his courage and determination in revealing inconvenient truths. Humanity needs many more people like him….”
Came right up and played for me on YouTube; no challenge about my age. Now, I *am* a registered paying Youtube premium subscriber and I did provide *a* birthdate upon registering….which is probably why they (correctly) assumed I’m an adult.
Good morning all. It’s coming.
Every run of the major weather model ensembles has been forecasting ever colder. Dr. Maue, Joe Bastardi, and all the others that I monitor are now calling for an Arctic outbreak. It was the distinct possibility of this happening that I was eluding to a while back when I posted I would not be surprised to see a day when all 50 states have snow on the ground. And if you were wondering about Hawaii? Mauna Kia, the mountain with all the telescopes on it, gets snow quite often during the winter.
I’ll be checking out the webcams at the weather station on Mt. Washington in NH if this comes to pass. The weather up there during outbreaks like this can be incredible.
This is the US GFS model, but the European, Canadian, and others look similar. And if this comes to pass 4-5 days from now as forecast, it will not only secure this January being the coldest of the century so far for the lower 48.
Oh, and notice that swirl down by Baja? Santa Ana is not done with S. California yet.
BTW note that the temps shown are in Celsius. It shows -22 C for my area. That converts to -7.6 F.
From Dr. Ryan Maue
Old fashioned cold is loosely defined as -40°C at 850 mb corresponding to the more severe Canadian Arctic blasts. Previous “polar vortex” episodes last few weeks lacked the reservoir of coldest air b/c Siberia wasn’t playing. Not anymore. -36°C is impressive, and entering the Lower 48 through Minnesota. This is Sunday … GFS 12z
AT this time there is a 25% chance that Florida will get some snow. If it does, then it’s time to make leftist heads explode.

re snow in florida:
“global warming”, don’tcha know
Rah, I always enjoy your weather reports. My wife and I visited Mt. Washington back in August 2000. It was 72 degrees down in the valley. When we arrived at the summit (by car), it was 41 degrees with a wind chill in the upper 20s! We were told it had snowed up there the week before. The strongest winds ever measured happened there I don’t recall the year, but remember the speed: 231 mph! Then the instrument self-destructed!
Thank you. Just a guy interested in weather.
BTW everyone. It is looking like this truly will be a shutdown storm coming for much of Texas right up through LA, MS, AL, GA, into the Carolinas. Freezing rain turning to snow, and plenty of it.
From Joe Bastardi’s pay site where is his looking back through weather maps to find analogs to the event that is forecast to come:
I have been going back thru the souths biggest ice/snowstorm maps but it takes a long time to go over all of them
Waves are much harder to forecast than organized lows, and the south usually gets theirs from waves. I am analogging it. The 93s and 63s that come roaring up are rare. Canadian last night looked like 1899 as it took it from Texas up the east coast. if only
Speaking of 1899 so you know I am not slacking off on this matter but trying to get together so I have do my usual make one forecast
Meanwhile in Minnesota
The Republican majority in the State House elected a black woman speaker. The first time ever for that state. Not a single democrat showed up because they were trying to stop her from being elected.
AOC mocked for hysterical rant defending trans athletes in girls’ sports
Ocasio-Cortez falsely claimed that Republicans have ‘taken away the right of all women to choose and have control over their own body’
“The majority right now says there’s no place in this bill that says it opens up for genital examinations. Well, here’s the thing, there’s no enforcement mechanism in this bill. And when there is no enforcement mechanism, you open the door to every enforcement mechanism!” Ocasio-Cortez said.
Nobody takes her seriously. Not even her own party.
The waitress who brings nothing to the table…
Trust God.
Fear not.
clever, Dave
hadn’t heard that one before
Let’s see what O’Crazio-Cortez says when a ‘trans woman’ steps into the showers with her in all its glory after a workout at the gym.
I guess democrats have never heard of DNA or genetics testing.
The age old “can you pick up a chair bent over away from the wall trick” should do it. simple test .
Yes! In high school, the hulking football players have the most priceless expressions on their face when an itty bitty cutie picks up the chair and they can’t.
Less than 5 days!
If Team Trump can get even a little more than half of what has been promised, it’ll be a win in my book!
The first laugh. May she have a lifetime more!
Old Movie b/w 1941 set in WW2, (1939 – 1945) English. Thriller.
“A great thriller from right before USA entered WWII “
Walter Pidgeon, Joan Bennett & George Sanders
“Man Hunt” is an excellent thriller that doesn’t look like it is almost eighty years old, and is one of my favorite Fritz Lang films. Ahead of its time in the complexity of its characters, it is about a man (Walter Pidgeon) who tries to assassinate Hitler but gets caught. Left for dead at the bottom of a cliff by the authorities, he lives and makes his way to a boat on its way to London. However, on the ship there is someone all too interested in his story. Soon he realizes he is being followed and, once back in England, turns to Joan Bennett for help. ”
“The musical theme running through the movie is song from the period called ‘A Nightingale sang in Berkeley Square.’ The Square) A little patch of green and trees in the center of London, a city that was heavily bombed in WW2.
The famous and much-loved English singer, of WW2 time, Very Lynn (born 1917) sings it best, IMHO. ( there are other videos of her .)
@elonmusk
No more double standards!
The double standard has been around a very long time in one form or another.
When I went through Jump school at Ft. Benning in 1980, the women did PT separately to lower standards and weren’t dogged nearly like the males. Hanging on the “Suspended harness trainer” aka the nut cracker, where the trainee practices slipping the parachute by pulling down hard on one riser or another, an airborne instructor aka “black hat” commented “This is one reason why you do all those pushups and pull ups.” I responded to him “Then Sgt. Airborne, the girls must have naturally better technique, because they don’t do pushups or pull ups like we do”. Yes, I got yelled at and did a lot of pushups and the next morning they made sure that I didn’t pass inspection so I went to the gig pit. But it was worth it. By then I really didn’t give a crap. There was nothing they could do to me that I couldn’t handle.

WE ARE FIGHTING A SPIRITUAL WAR OF GOOD VERSUS EVIL
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, Amen.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ABUSED, MISSING, AND TRAFFICKED CHILDREN
BE MY VOICE
JESUS LOVES THE LITTLE CHILDREN
CHILD NOT CHOICE
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER
MAPA = MAKE AMERICA PRAY AGAIN
TRUST GOD
When the walls come crashing down on you
When slings and arrows fly out of the blue
When all appears lost with no hope in sight
When no solution adheres to your plight
TRUST GOD
When you are weary of thinking it through
When you’ve exhausted a way out for you
When the voices in your head keep damning
When the doors and windows keep slamming
TRUST GOD
Remember that God is a friend not a foe
He is right by your side wherever you go
He does not condemn when you have fallen
He is right there waiting when you call in
TRUST GOD
When your options are few or so you think
He is there with a hand up from the brink
Go quickly to Him as your first import
Let Him never be your last resort
TRUST GOD
When there seems to be no relief from pain
Keep pleading with Him all over again
Perhaps you have trouble praying outright
Take authority it will be alright
TRUST GOD
Be honest and tell Him down on your knees
You cannot tackle this alone if you please
Acknowledge His prowess over it all
That nothing for Him is ever too small
TRUST GOD
If you feel foolish and somewhat ashamed
He understands and you will not be blamed
His heart is as great as His love for you
His correction might be harsh hard to do
TRUST GOD
Believe it or not you will rise higher
On the wings of eagles quite the flyer
His judgements are fair and for your own good
Obey His commands rightly as you should
TRUST GOD
You’ll feel His Fatherly love surrounding
Your head will be relieved from the pounding
The enemy will no longer laugh out loud
You’re a Child of God and you should be proud!!!

HAVE A VERY BLESSED DAY !!! ❤️❤️❤️
WARRIOR WEDNESDAY – DEDICATED TO STEVIE
RISE UP PRAYER WARRIORS
In the morning when you arise
Thank God for the lovely sunrise
Thank God you have the eyes to see
Thank God through Him you are set free
So many are suffering in various ways
From family problems to general malaise
From discouragement to deep depression
Hearts, minds, and souls suffer repression
Each day God asks you to boldly come
To the Throne of Grace and beat the drum
Sing Praise to our God – Sing Praise
To our Deliverer – Our voices we raise
God told us to pray unceasingly
Give Glory Honor and Praise to He
Bring our petitions and lift them up
So that all may drink from the Blessing Cup
When you are troubled the Body suffers
Take it to God and pray for others
When we reach out and pray for one another
We bless father mother sister and brother
Our own concerns become less of a bother
When we reach out and touch another
So Rise Up Prayer Warriors and shout
Defeat the enemy roundabout
Send him back to the dry places of doom
Back off and prevent his message of gloom
Declare your victory over all that prevails
Defeat his plan and all it entails
Our nation has been attacked mercilessly
Over a long span of time most relentlessly
It is time to defeat that father of lies
It is time for Prayer Warriors to rise
‘Go To The Quiet’ if it need be
To replenish and refresh on bended knee
You must be courageous and strong
To fight this battle all the day long
Rise Up Prayer Warriors and come to their aid
For many who are lacking let hope be staid
For those who are allegedly down and out
Sing Praise – Declare Victory – and Shout
Decked in your Armor fight the good fight
Send our enemy and his minions to flight
Give it your all and you will soon see
And taste the blessings of Victory!!!

Good Morning fellow Treepers. I need some help in finding a Daily Devotional book for my Grand Daughter. Something Bible based with scriptures. I got her a Bible (KJV) and I send her the Daily Verse of the Day (many thanks to Duchess01 for these daily verses). The GD is in her late 20’s and lives in Colorado with her family, I am in Pa and trying to help direct her in the path to the Lord.
Many thank for all your help, Marti.

Thank you AmaraGrace. A beautiful site – lots to check out.
You’re welcome of course… your guidance is so sweet – I’m sure they appreciate everything you send.
Keep checking back – they re-stock sold out things
Hi Marti in PA…
It’s a very popular book and you likely already know it, but what about “Jesus Calling” – it’s short but poignant for snippets of nourishment. My daughter (19) also likes the flip calendar devotionals. We are old-school and still use calendars.
Thank you, JWoo. I found the Jesus Calling on Amazon and ordered it. Looking forward to getting it by Friday. I do use calendars but have not seen a flip calendar devotional.
Nothing we don’t already know.

Somewhere in the inner most gyroscope of humanity the compass says when you want to do what queer men do, it’s wrong on a whole different level. It’s not love it’s sexual perversion, even they will admit that and when you deal in sin you open the pit in your life.

Roll down their golden sand;

From many a palmy plain,
They call us to deliver
Their land from error’s chain.

Blow soft on Ceylon’s isle;
Though every prospect pleases,
And only man is vile;
In vain with lavish kindness
The gifts of God are strown;
The heathen, in his blindness,
Bows down to wood and stone.
3
Can we, whose souls are lighted
With wisdom from on high;
Can we to men benighted
The lamp of life deny?
Salvation! O salvation!
The joyful sound proclaim,
Till each remotest nation
Has learned Messiah’s name.
4
Waft, waft, ye winds, His story;
And you, ye waters, roll,
Till, like a sea of glory,
It spreads from pole to pole;
Till o’er our ransomed nature,
The Lamb for sinners slain,
Redeemer, King, Creator,
In bliss returns to reign.
They Are Lying About the LA Fires (1:23)
Not mentioned in that video short: The reservoir was empty FOR A YEAR waiting on a $130,000 contract to repair a minor tear just a few feet long in the floating cover over the reservoir which was installed to prevent airborne contamination of the drinking water in the reservoir, a cover which wasn’t even installed until after 2003 when new EPA regulations required it.
Fasting and prayer for thanksgiving, and seeking peace and safety for the Inauguration, for the PDJT administration.

…”Host Jen Psaki said, “How damaging it is when you have somebody with that type of platform who is next week going to be the President of the United States, is injecting inaccurate information about the worst wildfires in American history?”
Newsom said, “I have firefighters that went up to him, and they had tears in his eyes after meeting Joe Biden, who was consoling them. I think that’s an example for the incoming president. “
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2025/01/13/fbis-chris-wray-reveals-right-before-resigning-that-china-has-penetrated-u-s-s-critical-infrastructure/
“Wray said China has already infiltrated malware into critical American infrastructure.
“Things like water treatment plants. We’re talking about transportation systems. We’re talking about targeting of our energy sector, the electric grid, natural gas pipelines. And recently we’ve seen targeting of our telecommunications systems,” he said.
Wray said China has also been listening into Americans’ calls.
CBS News said China has gathered communications of U.S. national security officials, as well as the Kamala Harris campaign and President-Elect Donald Trump himself.
The revelation prompted outrage from former Trump administration officials who say Wray did not do enough to stem the threat from China on his watch, only to discuss it publicly a week from stepping down.”
When Wray speaks on failures like this, it’s difficult to know whether he’s bragging or apologizing.
Bear with me; I can be long-winded about this because clarity matters. I’ll show you how this isn’t just a distraction article highlighting a petty ongoing squabble between 2 buIIsh1t hollywierd actors (that they both are that is notwithstanding).
It’s relevant to anyone who knows/cares about those who are experiencing their childbearing process. The disruption-traps are endemic in the mainstream system, and that vortex is strong… sucking people in by fear & hubris (“Your babies will die without us”) is job 1 because customers for life is job 1.1.
Trauma is the cause of all/every “mental illness” according to both pre- & peri-natal psychology & health leaders (which includes brain development science) AND the best chronic addiction treatment educators I’ve found (linked in a separate comment to follow).
The article I found on Gateway from AbleChild is correctly informative though it doesn’t reference CCHR directly, which is why I share it here first.
The CCHR – Citizens’ Commission on Human Rights – is the organization that has brought the clearest and most non-pretending & concise Sunlight to the psychiatric and their pHARMa drug-division industry; psychopharmacology is the category of drugs that are purported to “treat” “mental illness”. I highly recommend their eye-opening & peerless work.

In the past I’ve worked holistically with many pregnant/birthing/postpartum MotherBabies; they are a symbiotic pair/single unit and there are myriad ways to upset Nature’s Divinely Elegant & delicate balances, harmonies, and dynamics. Withholding what is required & needed by either baby or the mother or both, at any stage of primal development – the Primal Period extends from conception through the first year – is but one common element of disruption.
Imposing what is not needed is very rarely benign and most often disruptive, and imposing what is unnecessary, harmful, & damaging is another element of thwarting healthy, optimal outcomes; also usual/typical via segmenting & depersonalizing ‘standard-of-care’ protocols.
These are two categories of trauma; these two threads are the warp & weft of the fabric that makes up the mainstream approach/protocols. We’re living with the endemic & epidemic broken results by disrupted/distorted Humans/parenting/families everywhere we turn.
An holistic approach (every aspect is connected & interdependent/nothing is irrelevant to everything else/root & branch) gets it right in the first place far more often than not, and some remediation of prior disruptions can be accomplished later; in my personal and professional experience there’s a lot we can do to re-balance and recover. Yet…
It requires a very different way of thinking & acting from from what is typical in the “healthcare” system.
We see postpartum emotional disorders as response/sequelae to trauma.
{ Brooke Shields Reignites Antidepressant Controversy }
“… If Shields felt the need to start yapping about Tom Cruise again, it might have been nice to have her apologize to the actor for accusing him of providing misinformation twenty years ago.
But it is no longer acceptable for the actress to continue to insinuate that Cruise was even remotely wrong in his statements about the now debunked “chemical imbalance.”
Too many people are being harmed by these prescribed mind-altering drugs for someone in Shields position to continue to suggest that a chemical imbalance causes any psychiatric disorder and that any of the antidepressants “treat” a chemical imbalance. It simply is false information.

Hi Treeps,
Just want to update because I think I should.
Started my Masters in SPED in October and am doing fine.
I should be doing the student teaching part of my program in Spring 2026.
Am working at the town high school in a SPED program that I enjoy.
I expect to have my own room in our district in Fall of 2026.
Its a full plate with 2 young daughters, a job, a marriage, and graduate school
but I’m doing it. I pray every morning, and offer thanks to our Lord.
I couldn’t do this without our Lord God and Jesus in my life.
That’s it. Just wanted to let the treehouse know that I’m living the life that God has directed me towards.
I have no fear, because even though it’s taken a while to get here, I’m fully engaged with my community and family,
and I know why.
Cheers, and God bless you Treeps.

-Who’s Accountable For The LA Wildfires?
| The Way I Heard it with Mike Rowe
This vid has been posted everywhere and it’s on my must view list. But in the meantime, I’ll find a highlights reel. It must be good stuff.
I heard a ‘counseling’ story about a newly wed couple who were both too shy to consummate their marriage. The counselor advised – don’t worry. when the time is right all will work out.
A month later the counselor met with the beaming couple. Tell me how it happened. They smiled and explained that their hands touched and, well, the rest is history. The only problem, hubby said, is we can never go back to that McDonalds ….
