7 Rules for an Affordable Self Drive Trip around Uganda (despite the high fuel prices)
7 Rules for an Affordable Self Drive Trip around Uganda (despite the high fuel prices)
It takes passion, courage, and of course investment for one to take off their busy schedule and plan a vacation to any travel designated destination of their choice. People may have the passion but have limited resources which are insufficient forboth the usual bills and leisure. Nevertheless, like they say resources are scarce but you need to grind so hard to get them and enjoy what you want.…

Asteroid Observations: Idi Amin
Tumblr media Tumblr media
BIRTH TIME INCORRECT SO IGNORE THE HOUSE PLACEMENTS.
⚠️TRIGGER WARNING: Violence, abuse, murder.
WHO IS HE? Idi Amin was the president and dictator of Uganda. Known for his cruelty and vengefulness. He is not only known for what he did to the country and its people but also for what he ordered to be done to his ex wife because of her cheating on him. He had her legs and arms cut of and the legs sewn on to where the arms used to be and vice versa. He is considered one of the most brutal dictators in modern world history. In 1978 Amin ordered an attack on Tanzania. Aided by Ugandan nationalists, Tanzanian troops eventually overpowered the Ugandan army. International observers and human rights groups estimate that between 100,000 and 500,000 people were killed under his regime. Idi Amin fleed Uganda with his family and lived in Saudi Arabia until he passed away in August 2003.
We will take a look at these asteroids:
Uganda(1279) 🇺🇬
Medea(212) Extreme vengefulness
Machiavelli(19730) ”Machiavellianism is a personality trait that denotes cunningness, the ability to be manipulative, and a drive to use whatever means necessary to gain power. Machiavellianism is one of the traits that forms the Dark Triad.
Narcissus(37117) Narcissistic traits.
Sado(118230) Sadism
Nessus(7066) Abuse, sexual deviancy.
Waldemath Lilith(h58) The darkest of the liliths.
Fixed Star Aldebaran & Fixed Star Algol
Uganda conjunct Pluto: He left a long lasting effect on Uganda. He was at first loved but then extremely feared and hated in this country when he became brutal. He eventually had to flee Uganda when Tanzanian troops overpowered and attacked Uganda. His Uganda and Pluto is also conjunct Fixed Star Canopus which shows scandal, violence, great glory, fame, wealth. He brought so much fear to this beautiful country. ”His secret police force was notorious for torturing and killing Ugandans they believed to be political opponents.”
Sun Square Neptune: His father was absent and they never had a good relationship. Idi Amin was easily offended, had a sensitive ego and a hard time seeing himself clearly which are traits associated with Neptune aspecting Sun. This mixed with Jupiter conjunct his Moon gave him a huge sense of self importance and a god complex.
Narcissus conjunct Sun: He definitely had Narcissistic traits. Anyone who didnt look up to him suffered the consequences. He also needed the constant attention of women. His most known son Jaffar is the 10th of Amin's 40 official children by seven official wives. His son say ”Father had quite an appetite for women” .
Machiavelli conjunct Mercury: A machiavellian mentality. He did whatever he needed to get and keep his power. He did what he felt he needed to do yo get what he wanted, not only when it came to politics but also in his love life. Jessy Gitta Kasirivu, who openly showed his displeasure with Amin’s advances on his then girlfriend exhibited how far the dictator could go to get what he wanted. Jessy was abducted by agents from Amin’s State Research Bureau forced into a car boot and taken away without a trace as Amin had shown interest in his girlfriend Sarah. That was the last time he was seen. After Jessy’s disappearance, The East African reports that his relatives were warned to be quiet about it. His remains were never found and local media never reported it. All because Idi Amin wanted his girlfriend.
Nessus conjunct Moon: Nessus conjunct Moon is common in the charts of people who are extremely vengeful. Nessus is like putting electricity on a planet. Nessus was known to obviously be abusive and extremely brutal. His emotional mature was completely taken over by Nessus.
Algol conjunct Sun: Algol is related to beheadings and Idi Amin often bragged about keeping the heads of his political enemies. ”Algol causes misfortune, violence, decapitation, hanging, electrocution and mob violence, and gives a dogged and violent nature that causes death to the native or others. It is the most evil star in the heavens.” -astrologyking
Aldebaran conjunct Mercury: ”Fixed star Aldebaran is of the nature of Mars (violent death, ultimate ruin by folly or pride.) It gives honor, intelligence, eloquence, steadfastness, integrity, popularity, courage, ferocity, a tendency to sedition, a responsible position, public honors, and gain of power and wealth through others, but its benefits seldom prove lasting and there is also the danger of violence and sickness. ” -astrologyking
Medea conjunct North Node: The myth of Medea was definitely a life theme for him. Idi Amin was extremely vebgeful and took revenge on anyone who stopped on his toes. He killed the man his wife had an affair with and we all know about the revenge he took on his ex wife, one of the worst revenge stories in history.
Waldemath Lilith in Sagittarius: Waldemath Lilith is the darkest of all liliths. Lilith in Sagittarius is found in the charts of a lot of people who have strong religious beliefs or who convert to another religion. Idi Amins father was born a Christian but later converted to islam. Idi Amin himself tried to make Islam Ugandas official religion which he did not succeed with.
Sado conjunct Saturn: He was obviously very sadistic and used his power to get others to do sadist stuff. He was also very structured(saturn) with his sadism. Keeping severed heads in his freezer, ordering people to kidnap people who would be tortured etc.
Forest Whitaker playing Idi Amin in the movie ”Last King of Scotland” :

may we know what is the crumbs 3 wip? 👀
Aha! It's the 3rd chapter of the fic A Trail Of Crumbs whose concept I adore but fell out of love with when I stumbled out of the Avatar fandom.
It follows Recom Miles Quaritch after the events of the film, lone survivor back on base and wrestling with the increasing dread brought about by a series of 'crumbs' he picks up on over time. RDA staff say and do weird things. The way he's treated seems odd. Ah, and his fucking custom watch. The tattoos they all have... Stuff doesn't really add up.
The goal of the fic was to explore the nature of the 'soul drives', how edited recom memories are, and the growing realisation that Miles isn't anywhere near his old human self, not any more than any other Marine with a similar background.
It was pure vibes of Blade Runner, artificial memories, created as a sentient tool unaware of their own artificiality beyond the obvious, etc.
In the end, I think I explored the concept better in this short comic in Mansk POV.
Chapter 3 crumbs is the incomplete conversation between Aslan and Miles, hinting at past Miles/Parker Selfridge. I stuck to dialogue only towards the end so it grows barebones, but I'll put what I have under the cut for the curious because I honestly don't think I'll finish this unless Avatar 3 makes me its bitch again.
'Why did you come back to Pandora?'
'Well, we landed in fanfare, as you can imagine.'
Yes, Miles can well imagine the media shit-storm so politely labelled fanfare. There's a part of him he's not particularly proud of that is glad his own death allowed him to skip this particular shitshow. He'd been, after all, the man in charge of operations at the time. Had pulled rank and everything. The media would have vivisected his career, his entire being. It's unlikely to have been much kinder to other RDA personal, returning with their tails between their legs.
'And in the middle of all this, my family...' Aslan gnaws on their lip, their faraway look snapping back to Miles with sudden intensity. 'We weren't really friends, you and I. You weren't one to hang out with the "science pukes", right? You'd know about my family if you had. I used to complain quite vocally whenever I got a comm from them. The old vent, you know. Anyway, let's say they were there, at the landing pad, waiting for me. In the middle of all that... fanfare.'
They look through the blinds, over the blighted landscape of concrete and metal, crawling with bots and shivering with heat and ship exhaust fumes.
'I signed up for the next mission over.'
Miles nods politely. He knows the type of family they're alluding to. He's met people who worked on the Mars terraforming program off world, because restoring Uganda's water table wasn't far enough of a getaway. Pandora's one of the furthest frontiers known to mankind. Different appeal to the science pukes, who generally arrive thrilled to go pull up grass, but dysfunctional families are universal, and to many RDA workers, the distance is a bonus.
He goes to say some platitude, that he understands, because really, he does. But Aslan cuts him off with a sharp hand gesture.
'Can we cut the crap, General? I mean Miles. You're not interested in my family, and you're keeping me away from the deeply fascinating samples I've come all the way here to put under a microscope, so let's just talk.'
Miles is struck by the sudden realisation that he's got no easy segway ready to start on the whole RDA conspiracy thing. He turns a few sentences over in his mind, growing discomfort flattening his ears to his skull. Should he threaten Aslan? Ask plainly? He's burning to cut the crap, as asked. But Aslan is also the one who'd gone to great pains to arrange a believable meeting between them, who'd seeded fear into his mind.
The manual had held no hint when he consulted it. The term soul drive had an asterix to an appendix that wasn't in the book.
'Something bothering you?'
Miles smiles tightly. 'You can tell?'
'You have a long way to go before you obtain a Na'vi poker face. I suggest you stay away from the Thursday games.'
To hell with it. It's not like he expects he'll make it past the court martial, the way things are going.
'Why do your people tattoo us?'
'You flatter me if you think me this involved, but that happens on the ship over, with a crew well out of my jurisdiction.'
A deflection. He'll be damned. 'I'd appreciate an answer,' he says, putting steel into his voice. 'Of the straight kind, too, if you can manage those.'
'A jab at my sexuality? Too easy. Is the tattooing what's bothering you? Really?' Aslan's smile is knowing, the light in their eyes dances with unwholesome mischief.
'Let's say that I've tried and failed to find a better starting point.'
'All right then. Let's do a short test. Answer my questions fast and truthfully.'
Miles relaxes. 'Sure.'
'Year of birth?'
'2104.'
'Do you have a son?'
'...Yes.'
'What was his mother's name?'
'Paz Socorro.'
'What year was she born?'
'I...'
'Am not sure?'
'I don't think we discussed it, but—'
'You had her file. She was one of yours, wasn't she? Surely you remember how old she was?'
'I think—'
But Aslan doesn't let him catch his breath. 'Who was Parker Selfridge to you?'
Miles sits straight, ears point to attention now. Will Aslan also reek of fear if he answers 'friend', no matter how much of an overstatement the word might feel? Heck, they asked for fast answers, so he says, 'He wasn't exactly my boss, but he was the Head suit in charge.'
'I need an honest answer,' they say, rasping a knuckle on the table.
Miles has his jaw hanging. What do they want from him?
'Do you recall leaning in his doorway?' Aslan continues, hardly slowing down. 'Poring over maps together?'
'Well, we...'
'Do you remember the way he laughed at your jokes? You leaned into the corny dad humour and he loved it. Do you remember your mug?'
'Yes.'
'Do you remember how you got it?'
'...Selfridge? Wasn't it Paz?'
'That's a question, so I'll take it as a no. Moving on to—'
'All right, all right. You've made your point.'
'What point do you think this is?'
'My memories are incomplete.'
'No, Miles.' Aslan sighs and sinks into their chair. 'Your memories are edited.'
It's somewhat depressing that of all the emotions he feels in that moment, surprise is not one of them
'Look at it this way. The machine scours your neural pathworks, and bounces memories. But it can't recreate the events that got you there, and it can't recreate what you blocked even from your own wakeful memory. Things you've forgotten, things you've hidden under too many layers, things you've trained to look away from.'
'So we're missing chunks?'
'Yes, all soul drives are inherently incomplete. That's why the technology isn't widespread. But that's not it. When you're in the machine, they can trigger memory chains. It helps map out... Look, it's hard to simplify, especially since it's not my specialty either, but they can snip out entire sections, like cauterizing a thought beyond surface level, or blot out all emotional reactions to a concept.'
'Are you saying... Do you actually mean the RDA edited the story of my life like a fucking home movie?'
They shrug. 'Yeah. That's the gist of it.'
'That in the contract I signed?'
'Of course not. Come on, colonel, you worked private long enough to have seen this coming. What? Do you think they'd give a fuck if you had issues with your situation?'
Miles rubs a shaky hand over his eyes, trying his best to remember the sound of Parker's laugh. 'Are you— Are you saying Selfridge and I were close—'
'Close is a good euphemism.'
'—and they erased so much of it, I freaked the shrink out by referring to him as a friend?'
Aslan tuts. 'Bad move.'
Miles gives them a sickly sweet smile. 'What a shame nobody warned me about the nature of this assessment!'

BBC 0441 5 Dec 2023
12095Khz 0358 5 DEC 2023 - BBC (UNITED KINGDOM) in ENGLISH from TALATA VOLONONDRY. SINPO = 55233. English, dead carrier s/on @0358z then ID@0359z pips and Newsroom preview. @0401z World News anchored by Neil Nunes. The United States said on Monday it was too soon to make a final judgment on whether Israel was doing enough to protect civilians in Gaza despite some improvements and that it expected Israeli forces not to strike zones they have identified as safe. Israel's military has ordered the evacuation of a fifth of the main city in southern Gaza, as it expands its ground offensive against Hamas. In Gaza City, an unconfirmed report says 50 people were killed when Israeli air strikes hit two schools. According to the Palestinian news agency Wafa, they died in schools sheltering displaced people in the city's Daraj neighbourhood. A former Tesla employee has told the BBC he believes the technology powering the firm's self-driving vehicles is not safe enough to be used on public roads. Lucasz Krupski leaked data, including customer complaints about Tesla's braking and self-driving software, to German newspaper Handelsblatt in May. Thousands of Māori protesters took to the streets across New Zealand on Tuesday morning, objecting to policies of the new government that Māori say will unravel decades of indigenous progress. The new government recently announced it would dial back the use of Māori language in government organisations, and scrap anti-smoking legislation and the Māori Health Authority at a time when health issues, including lung cancer, disproportionately impact Māori. The Washington Post has reported that The Associated Press, USA Today and Northeastern University have been compiling their database of mass gun killings since 2006, making 2023 the worst year on record. The United States on Monday expanded a visa restriction policy on Ugandan officials to include those it believes are responsible for undermining democracy and repressing marginalized groups in Uganda, while also announcing a new visa restriction policy for officials in Zimbabwe. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced the visa restrictions and mentioned, among others, the marginalization of groups like the LGBT community in Uganda and civil society advocates in Zimbabwe. Blinken's statements did not name any official. COP28 President Sultan al-Jaber is facing a backlash over his claim that there is "no science" behind calls for a phase out of fossil fuels. Many believe the success of the U.N. climate conference hinges on a collective agreement to bring an end to the fossil fuel era. Speaking at a news conference on Monday, al-Jaber said his team "very much believe and respect the science." A YouTuber accused of deliberately crashing his plane to get a boost in views has agreed to plead guilty to obstructing a federal investigation, the US Department of Justice announced. Trevor Jacob, 29, faces up to 20 years in federal prison after he purposely destroyed the wreckage of the small single-engine plane that he crashed in California’s Los Padres national forest in 2021, according to a statement from the US attorney’s office. @0406z "The Newsroom" begins. 250ft unterminated BoG antenna pointed E/W w/MFJ-1020C active antenna (used as a preamplifier/preselector), Etón e1XM. 250kW, beamAz 315°, bearing 63°.

Yes, colonialism is an issue here, but it is not the central issue. Dominionist arrogance about their own competence as healers, the flippant and self-satisfied dismissal of medical knowledge and expertise in favor of something called "healing" -- these are the attitudes driving the antivaxxer movement and Renee Bach, too.
Renee Bach may not be a murderer, but she is unquestionably a psychopath.
May her God treat her the way she treats others.
