How are you feeling? What questions come to your mind? Where does your mind go? Are you seeking safety? Would this have been an adrenaline rush as you raced to send the resignation response? What an "enhanced standard" regarding loyalty and trustworthiness was? What are these new "enhanced standards?" Are they beyond what my Constitutional oath requires? If I don't resign, how bright will the target on my back glow? My leadership has supported all my work, but would termination direction come from higher up the chain of command? What would you recommend if we talked over coffee? What questions would you ask? How would you use listening? How would you use silence? How is this scenario playing out in your mind and body?

What is the correct length of the pregnant pause before making an important announcement? What processes would you use in my circumstance, and what would be different? What questions are at the top of your list to get to a decision? Who would be the members of your pantheon you would counsel with to gain clarity? Apart from the heady analysis, what other key practices would you include in your journey through a similar situation?…

Is this election just another setup of “Boys vs. Girls”? Despite the many political parties in America, the mass media still handpicks the two biggest players to sell their circus. All the while, they pit working Americans against each other—for what? If you can afford to put your life on cruise control for the next few weeks, try it. Just do your thing without turning on the screens. We want the funk. Give up the funk.

Warm Fuzzies & Cold Pricklies 11:06

The Warm Fuzzy Tale By Claude M. Steiner What happens when scarcity is just an illusion? Warm Fuzzies & Cold Pricklies explores the deeper layers of human connection, generosity, and fear through a timeless fable that mirrors the world we live in today. At its core, this story is about trust—how it’s built, how it’s broken, and how a single idea can shift an entire society from abundance to control. In this episode, we enjoy the origins story behind Warm Fuzzies, Cold Pricklies, and the deception that led people to hoard what was once infinite. Is this a parable about love? Capitalism? Social conditioning? Maybe all of the above. Join me and think how a simple exchange of kindness can transform relationships, communities, and even entire belief systems.…

Why do so many young people support someone like Donald Trump ? In this episode, we talk about the surprising appeal of authoritarian rulers, the nostalgia for a “better time” that never really existed, and the psychological craving for a strong, guiding figure. Is it about Trump himself, or is it about a deeper desire for structure in a chaotic world? We’ll also explore the risks of romanticizing leaders and what it says about us as a society. Join the conversation and see what’s behind this unexpected phenomenon. Welcome🍸 ✨ to Deviant Lounge — Contact us at DeviantLounge.com…

“Terrorism” is a term designed to control you. 16:22

11 weeks前16:22

16:22

From Luigi to the truck attacker in New Orleans, and even the mentally ill Tesla truck Trump protestor in Vegas — they all had at least one thing in common. They were angry. But, were they “terrorists?” Were they programmed from an early age with an ideology from a known enemy of American democracy? Or, were they simply angry at their powerlessness in a Capitalist society and decided they wanted to go out with their own definitions of a clear conscience? Who do some protests miss the mark so badly? Welcome🍸 ✨ to Deviant Lounge — Contact us at DeviantLounge.com…
