    The most effective way to break the ice was to ask someone what their opinion of the universe was. Then we’d have a meaningful discussion on the big picture ideas. My “cult” is an educational art project where I teach philosophy, spirituality, and mental health skills to help people heal and self-actualize. I think the FBI is going to say I’m literally the devil when I am only a cop. I think. I also think my life partner falsely accusing me of much, but that’s just cuz he’s CIA and helping me build a good cover story. I’ve already been arrested for assaulting him because my God is he skilled in manipulation and deception. I love him though. He’s not only helped me quit meth but he taught me much about Buddhism that I was ignorant to.

      Have you ever read A Scanner Darkly? That’s what these comments remind me of. Not in a good way.

        Yea, we do both the legal and illegal work in the CIA. A band is a thing with many fans that can cross borders with near-impunity. ;)

      I mean, if you’re teaching those things and in America, you’re probably going to end up on a list somewhere, sure. Congrats kicking the meth, I struggled for decades with smack.

        I was already on all the lists by time the Crazy Indigo Aliens, which is an acronym, decided to make contact with me on an acid trip twelve years ago. Now I stare at goats, which is a cultural reference to a movie about Project Star Gate, which IS MKULTRA; they’re our enlightenment programs. The reason they have the FBI tracking popular artists like Andy Warhol is to get the most pig-headed to listen and learn about the sorts of things I teach, and I guarantee I’ve trained many law enforcement persons over the years.
