🌵 Old Texas Dude here. Fort Worth, TX.
Deeply conservative independent — no party label. 32° Scottish Rite Mason. Love traveling Europe — Portugal holds a piece of my heart.
I write V64OTD — daily Corporatocracy dispatches on government & corporations in bed together at the public's expense, plus the Hidden Ledger, a comparative religion series.
Seeking the Divine. Liberty. Right to be left alone.
Husband, father, builder. Truth over tribe.

Corporatocracy at work.
4 days before Olmstead v. L.C.'s 27th anniversary — today — DOJ quietly claimed disabled Americans have no enforceable right to community care over institutions.
The memo admits it's "out of step" with 27 yrs of precedent.
Not isolated: a 6-state lawsuit attacks the mandate. Nursing homes are 70% for-profit. Medicaid lost $1T.
Three fronts, one target.

✡️✝️ Proverbs 8: Wisdom was present before creation — rejoicing beside God in the work.
Qabalah calls her the Shekinah — God's feminine face, in exile with the suffering.
Gnostics called her Sophia — fallen into matter, longing for the infinite.
Hermeticism called her Isis. Masonry places her in the widow and the Temple.
She has always been in the text.

🌍 What if the God who made this world isn't the highest God?
The Gnostics said exactly that — and were declared heretics for it.
The Qabalah maps a shadow Tree, the Qliphoth, mirroring the divine one.
Hermeticism's Demiurge governs matter but answers to something higher.
The question that ended Marcion's career — still unresolved 1,800 years later.

🔼🔽 "As above, so below" — the Hermetic axiom everyone quotes, few trace.
It's in the Lord's Prayer: "on earth as it is in heaven."
It's in the Qabalistic Tree of Life — ten Sephiroth mapping heaven onto the body.
It's in Gnostic cosmology — matter as a flawed mirror of the Pleroma.
Masonic philosophy built on the same principle.
