No More Being Measured Around Here

Tuesday, March 7, 2023 (Updated: Monday, September 21, 2026)

Post may contain affiliate links. Read my disclosure statement.

I’m not going to try to be measured in what I write here this time (or moving forward, for that matter).

For the better part of five long years (since the Kavanaugh hearings) I’ve been careful and measured. I’ve tried not to offend people while also pointing out truth and contradictions.




My overall goal was to get people to question the narrative being put forth when things simply didn’t add up. 

During the past three years, I’ve spent more hours than I can possibly begin to count trying to warn and help people. Whether it was impending lockdowns, the obvious concerns regarding the rollout of the jabs, or the blatant-to-anyone-taking-the-time-to-look ongoing election fraud, I tried to share information in a low-key way. I wanted to warn people in such a way that they would pay attention but not write me off completely when I was challenging what was being covered in the mainstream news. I tried to be gentle and thought-provoking in as non-threatening a way as possible.

For my troubles, I was mocked. I was canceled. I was ignored. I was cut out of people’s lives. People attempted to shame me, but that doesn’t work because it will simply make me double down. Logic and truth work. Shame will completely backfire on you.

I’m not alone in this. I would guess every person reading this has experienced the same thing to varying degrees. Some of you have suffered far more than I have. You lost jobs. You lost loved ones. You lost your church home. You lost your business. So many people lost so much which is why the calls for “a pandemic amnesty” were met with complete and total anger literally around the world.

Last night when Tucker aired his segments about the truth of January 6, I was both glad and angry. Glad that at least one of the lies propagated by the media and the totally bogus January 6 committee was exposed. You and I have known the truth this entire time because we took the time to look at video from that day. You know which videos I’m talking about. The ones that were banned on social media that we had to go looking for in our quest to understand what happened. That was way back when we were on Locals. Yes, it’s really been that long.

I was also angry because I didn’t have my online home to discuss it any longer. I had shut it down out of sheer weariness, something many truth tellers are feeling and struggling with right now. When I gave into that weariness, I attributed it to the overwhelming amount of information and propaganda we’re dealing with right now. That is true, but I realized last night it was also the weariness of being despised, canceled, and laughed at. I allowed others to steal my joy in being right.

After three long years of digging and sharing, I wasn’t there to celebrate being proven correct.




Well, we all deserve the opportunity to celebrate. Even if it is only a handful of us who have by the grace of God managed to hold on through this massive propaganda war in these recent years, we deserve the right to celebrate.

At one time I would have thought I should be measured in how I discuss these things. Forget that. We have been abused, ostracized, and harassed every which way. I don’t care to be measured any longer.

I’m done being careful so as not to offend someone or turn them off. So in the spirit of starting things off on a new note, let’s start with this.

I told David that I think I may start a meme of the day post. I’ve saved up so many of them that I’ve never shared because they might rub someone the wrong way. Tough. Maybe I’ll do a meme of the morning. Maybe I’ll be really unmeasured and do not only a morning meme but a bedtime meme. And I don’t care if it hurts anyone’s feelings. I’m so far beyond that at this point.

You know what’s funny in a tragic sort of way? There will be people reading this who will be more upset by my tone in what I just wrote than the fact that they’ve been the victim of a massive psychological operation for the past several years that has had the goal of destroying them and their way of life. They will be more bothered by the two memes I inserted rather than the fact that psychopaths and sociopaths are still trying to destroy them, their family, and their country.

Just remember that moving forward.
