‘The Real Reasons the US Fights So Many Wars’, Part I

I’m sure you have heard the phrase: “All wars are banker’s wars” or the term: “Debt Slaves” or “Debt Slavery”, but do you truly understand the foundation of these saying?

The person who went quiet needed space to return to themselves. The person who pursued the quiet needed confirmation that the space was not an exit. Both needs were legitimate. The collision between them was the problem.

I want to take a moment to thank every one of you who walks this path with me.

Every like, comment, share, and conversation means more than you know. What started as a passion for Norse history, mythology, and tradition has become something far greater because of this community.

And to those who have left a tip - whether large or small - know that it truly helps. Each one moves us a little closer to our goals, helps keep this project growing, and allows me to continue creating and sharing the content we all enjoy.

None of this is built by one person alone. It is built by a community.

For that, I am grateful.

Hail to all of you. ⚔️🍻

I’ve been thinking about why this platform keeps growing.

It’s not because I’m special. It’s not because we do good things in bad places. Plenty of people do harder work with less noise. It’s growing because the ethos resonates. Because millions of YOU are exhausted by the SAME thing I’m exhausted by, and you finally heard somebody say it out loud:

I’m politically homeless. And I think you might be too.

Somewhere along the way we got trained - and I mean trained, deliberately, and profitably - to punch down at the people suffering and sideways at our neighbors. The outrage machine doesn’t make money when we agree. It makes money when we fear each other. So we spend our days fighting the person on the next block, the next cubicle, the next lane of traffic, while the people who profit from our division never miss a meal.

America is the greatest country that has ever existed. Not perfect. Great. And 250 years in, I fear we are at greater risk of losing this republic than we’ve ever been - not from a foreign army, but from forgetting that the man across the aisle is our countryman, not our enemy.

So let me float something that’s been burning a hole in me. Maybe the fix isn’t fixing either party. Maybe it’s a new one. A third party built by and for the politically homeless, with a core ethos so simple a child could recite it:

Maximum rights for maximum people all the time.

Term limits. Immediately. For everyone.

Money out of politics. Period.

Insider trading by Congress means prison time, same as it would for you or me.

And the big one: “politician” should not be a job. It’s public service. You serve your time, you go back to the private sector you came from, and you LIVE under the laws YOU wrote.

That’s it. Not left. Not right. Up.

Stop punching down. Stop punching sideways. Start punching up - together - at the actual monsters: the cartels, the legacy media, the traffickers, the predators, the grifters, the careerists in both parties who’ve turned our government into a retirement plan.

I’ve seen what happens when people drop the jerseys. I watched members of Congress who agree on nothing come together to save Afghan lives. I’ve watched a former trafficker and a former addict pull women out of hell side by side in South Memphis. Unity isn’t naive. It’s the only thing I’ve ever seen actually work.

So tell me - am I wrong? Is there a hole in this? Would you vote for that party? Would you help build it? Are we so far gone that you’ve abandoned hope? Or are you thinking, honestly, “this is fine” as the world burns around you?

Most people know that Thor carried Mjölnir.

Far fewer know that one of his greatest sources of power was not his hammer at all.

It was a belt.

The Old Norse sources call it Megingjörð, usually translated as “the Belt of Strength” or “Power-Girdle.” According to the Prose Edda, when Thor fastens Megingjörð around his waist, his already legendary strength becomes even greater.

The exact phrase used by Snorri Sturluson is simple but remarkable: the belt causes Thor’s divine strength to increase by half again. In other words, the strongest of the gods becomes stronger still.

“A crow can recall every route it has ever taken. Crows are messengers, spies, guides, companions, harbingers of luck, deliverers of trinkets and treasures, tireless in all ways, more loyal than any other man or beast.”
― Alice Hoffman, Magic Lessons

[Mary-Ann Thorson𐃆 @NoctrnlValkyrie]

“It is no secret. All power is one in source and end, I think. Tears and distances, stars and candles, water and wind and wizardry, the craft in a man's hand and the wisdom in a tree's root: they all arise together.

My name, and yours, and the true name of the sun, or a spring of water, or an unborn child, all are syllables of the great word that is very slowly spoken by the shining of the stars. There is no other power. No other name”
-Ursula K. Le Guin, A Wizard of Earthsea

Good morning. Hope everyone has a great Thor’s Day!

Hail the protector of Midgard!

Hail Odin’s Son!

Hail Thor!

There is a pattern between the person who interprets distance as rejection and the person who uses distance as regulation.

The first person’s nervous system reads physical or emotional withdrawal as the beginning of abandonment. When the other person needs space, or simply has a day where they are internally occupied and less externally present, it activates something old and urgent. The distance is not yet abandonment but it produces the same physiological response as abandonment would.

The second person uses distance as a return to equilibrium. When overwhelmed, or simply depleted, they naturally contract inward. The contraction is not directed at the other person. It is a self-regulation mechanism that requires temporary reduction of external input, including the input that comes from the relationship.

The first person pursues the distance trying to close it. The second person withdraws further because the pursuit increases the stimulation they were contracting to escape. The pursuit and the withdrawal amplify each other and both people arrive somewhere worse than where they started from a misunderstanding about what the distance meant in the first place.
