“ I huff a laugh and roll my eyes. You’re the worst. “You’ll love me someday.” One of my steps falters. Today is that day. Maybe yesterday too. And the day before that. Maybe for a while, in fact. I can’t tell exactly when it started, but I don’t think it will ever stop. ― Brynne Weaver, Butcher & Blackbird so so good

Books Read in 2024 #25 - “Journey to the Center of the Earth” by Jules Verne.
After my recent relisten to the Rick Wakeman’s rock opera based on Verne’s classic tale of subterranean exploration, I felt drawn to reread the original, which I probably last read as a teenager.
With a couple of long freeway trips coming up I was delighted to find this version on Audible narrated by the incomparable Tim Curry. Making it a must listen.
I’d forgotten just how verbose Verne’s prose style is and how long it took to set up what little action there was. This is less a story of exploration than a scientific treatise on subjects such as mineralogy, botany, paleontology, and theoretical mathematics delivered by characters with incalculable levels of knowledge and superhuman endurance and stamina.
Except for the unfortunate narrator, Axel. I’d forgotten what a dramatic, whining, alarmist he was. If I was either the redoubtable Professor Lidenbrock, or their stoic Icelandic guide, Hans I think I’d have left Axel lost in a side tunnel somewhere beneath Scotland!

Fani Willis and Nathan Wade Now Facing Trouble With the Georgia State Bar
Tumblr media
After all the problems regarding Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and her former paramour, whom she appointed to be a special prosecutor in the Trump election case, you knew that they were going to be in trouble.  Now, they have been referred by a watchdog group to the Georgia state bar for misconduct.The American Accountability Foundation (AAF) is alleging that the pair violated the rules of professional conduct in ethics complaints they filed with the bar. The AAF claims Wade lied under oath about the relationship with Willis and that Willis kept campaign money for personal use, and admitted it during her testimony. The Foundation is asking that the bar take action against both Willis and Wade to permanently ban them from the practice of law. The Foundation was upset about this part of Willis' testimony that we reported on, and thought it needed more investigation. Fani Willis: "When I took out a large amount of money on my first campaign, I kept some of the cash of that." pic.twitter.com/PcPI22qxDj— The Post Millennial (@TPostMillennial) February 15, 2024Read More: More Fani Willis Fun - The Reason She Won't Be Testifying Further Is Hilarious"Cash is fungible. I’ve had cash for years in my house. So for me to tell you the source of where it comes from ... when you go to Publix and you buy something and you get fifty dollars and you throw it in there. It’s been my whole life. When I took out a large amount of money during my first campaign, I kept some of the cash of that." The AAF says that's a violation of Georgia campaign finance law, "Nothing in this Code section shall permit or authorize a candidate to utilize campaign funds for the purpose of making gifts, loans, or investments directly to: (A) The candidate…" The complaint document continues:The statute is unambiguous – and the facts are not in dispute – as Ms. Willis described in her testimony, she placed the money that was intended for her campaign into a "fungible" slush fund with other moneys that she would use for various other purposes, including reimbursing her boyfriend for leisure travel.The AAF claims that Wade lied in response to the interrogatories in his divorce case, claiming he hadn't slept with anyone else during his marriage. The complaint states:First it is simply not credible that Mr. Wade did not know that he had sexual relations with Ms. Willis when he replied to the interrogatories above in his divorce case. Put simply, it is clear Mr. Wade knew that he had had sex with Ms. Willis, and he knew that at the time he was still married, and he simply lied in the interrogatories. I think that's likely just the opening salvo of complaints and that we're going to see more, because those didn't even get into some of the other alleged lies and issues that have since come out in the disqualification hearing. As I previously reported, the Georgia state Senate is also looking into the matter. Grab the popcorn, because I expect there will be more complaints coming. Related:More Bad News for Fani Willis As Megyn Kelly Drops One Final Surprise in Disqualification MatterClosing Arguments in Fani Willis Disqualification Hearing Do Not Go Well For Her

I love you,” I whisper. “You could throw my entire world into upheaval, and I would still love you. You could keep secrets, run a revolution, frustrate the shit out of me, probably ruin me, and I would still love you. I can’t make it stop. I don’t want to. You’re my gravity. Nothing in my world works without you.” ― Rebecca Yarros, Iron Flame my heart is so full (first book of 2024)

📢 ☁Thinking Aloud + Quick Message
throughout 2024 there will be ALOT OF CONTENT & Divination from me….. everything getting read Im excited, yet anxious because this will be a lot going on, like never before. If you been following me since like 2021, you know I'll go 3-6 months without doing any public or collective readings. This year will be very different though, because of how I'm planning my spiritual content. I'm going to trust it and know it will all tie together and myself and others will get insights they need to stay focused in 2024. You may have already noticed a spike in content from me in the Fall Season. I'm hoping to continue that same energy. So get your journals out!!!! Im coming with divine messages & relays of information to help us heal , grow and navigate 2024 from our highest selves. I cannot wait to contribute & begin filming my 2024 content. Spirit has definitely dropped off messages to me about 2024 in late Fall that I never shared because Im practicing #presence . I've also encouraged others to do the same in my content for most of 2023. The first form of mastering spirituality & growth in life is to stop tearing down the work you’ve already done. Build. Refine. And even reinvent, but don’t work against yourself by constantly reverting to levels of work youve really already done b/c you can't embody the lessons.
Question : How the hell does it look to say “Spirit says be present guys” then bust out with 2024 content before we leave 2023?
Answer : Confusing & contrary is how it looks….
Anyways… just know, if you #love#spirituality , things that fill your cup and make you feel #seen & #safe… even at your ugliest and darkest moments… #2024readings & content #OTW
Yet! Here’s the gag-- and this may go over some heads :
Jan & Feb is really the ending of each calendar yr. March is a limbo. A transition into #rebirth, a new cycle and the true “new yr”. Try to accept that everything happening now - March is like the finale of 2023. This is what the whole year means and amounts to. This is what can no longer be hidden or avoided…
The #manifestations & consequences of the entire 2023 calendar have arrived, good & bad. #Handleyourbusiness . Honor what you need to do this winter. So come Spring (mid/end of March) you can truly #emerge into the true 2024 energy ready for what Spring has in store. B/c believe me you it will be #DIFFERENT
🪞✨2024 Year Ahead / Annual Reads available on my Facebook Page linked in my bio! Book "Full Moon Session" to experience an authentic reflection of you along with divine messages just for you!
