Ive been listening to this song a lot recently. The lyrics remind me of how ive felt so offended by lockdown . Ive also been watching posts on YouTube about parallel dimensions that are thought to run alongside each other with wafer thin divisions allowing slippage between some them at any give time. Speaking of which there is a new Matrix film coming out this December. The first film for a long while that I actually have a desire to see. Well, apart from the upcoming film Emily that was filmed next door last spring. No doubt it will be full of " woke " malarkey, it being about the life and times of Emily Bronte. Well it cant really be any other way given the subject matter of those dark bleak days and the subject matter of her novel Wuthering Heights. It will be interesting either way.
As I work with nature Ive noticed some very odd things these last 18 months, the first of which is how the sky has changed. Not only has the weather been fantastic since planes stopped flying so much, but the sky is now a lighter blue and the clouds more wispy. I guess they are holding less moisture ? They are not the same billowy dark type we used to get as summer began and spring ended. I mentioned this change to my uncle and he said skies were like this in 60's which I found very interesting. Im no environmentalist but this change seem too much to be explained away as coincidence. There again my uncles comment fascinates me...
This summer during the hot weather my daughter swam in a river containing thousands of young fish fry. They showed no fear at all as they swam around her. In fact they nibbled at her feet. Ive never seen that happen apart from in the healing pools at Lordes on tv. It just didnt seem real. It would not have happened once. Nature seems be losing its fear of man. Maybe this is a product of the break it got during lockdown ? ? I know that wild goats in Wales were seen openly walking down the deserted streets as human traffic all but stopped.
Rather more worrying is the lack of fear and aggression shown by birds. We have a flock of Jackdaws which have lived here for as long as Ive been alive and they have taken to attacking me for several springs now, especially when rearing their young. Their fear of humans is waning. They are also becoming more nocturnal and not roosting even by 10pm. The flock is at times highly agitated and resemble a scene from Hitchcock's The Birds. Yes, they have definitely changed for the worse.
Well thats nature changing but this maybe a natural cycle or be caused by mans changing behaviour. Im sounding worryingly like an environmentalist but sometimes your observations just challenge your preconceptions like an " inconvenient truth " That aside personally Ive found nothing feels the same after lock-down. Even returning to old rhythms of yearly touch point events just doesnt give me the same satisfaction anymore. Not surprising considering the loss of momentum these restrictions have caused. Funny thing momentum as someone once told me the power when something stops after having happened for a long while has to go somewhere as energy cannot be destroyed, it carries on somewhere reinventing its self.
Im not sure about dimension changes but I like the idea. One things for sure, nothing is the same anymore...
Speaking of fear and aggression, I've heard that the vaxxed are having episodes of anger and aggression, often in public. It's creepy.
ReplyDeleteI am 100% convinced they will taint the remake of Wuthering Heights with woke nonsense too. It's sad. I recently watched "The Green Knight" btw and it was okay except the ending, which had a little girl wearing a crown, which I think tried to imply feminism in some form. I am hoping that the ending means there is a continuation or I will be even more upset because there was no clear delineation as to what happened to Gawain.
Where I am, the weather has been strangely warm, to the point that everyone is talking about it. It's late September and still feels like June.
Peoples driving is awful in general at the moment tbh, but I think thats because of the autumn panic that sets in when summer is running out.At first there appears to be nothing wrong in public but petrol stations are running out of diesel because of a lack of delivery drivers. Some food shelves are empty. All shops and cafes are advertising vacancies due to a lack of workers because those who have been paid not to work during lock down are in no rush to start again ! Look out for said film as I was told it would be released internationally.
