Read the God Whistle  ... I can only report what I experienced locally, in El Alto, La Paz, Bolivia, when I started reading Aristotle's two books on Logic. I thought "This is impossibly perfect. It's as if God materialised in the human form of Aristotle as he was walking along the shore of that lagoon somewhere in Lesbos with his girlfriend." And I quickly became convinced that it was not Aristotle himself who was the source of what he wrote. Then, when I wrote that play/dialogue to which I no longer have access, I became totally convinced that this mind into which I had come in contact, was an essentially feminine form of intellect almost totally alien to my own, which then seemed to me like a pale shadow of the real thing: Somebody wrote a book called " The First Three Minute...

This is really interesting. You can get first aid now at Bajo Chiquito, since April this year. What a fucking brilliant idea! What genius thought of that?! Medical aid for people who've spent ten days walking through a forest! See  Al Jazeera's The Stream on Migrants Crossing The Darién Gap .

This is approximately the route I took in 2020/2021: Google maps has severely reduced the resolution of the images to the point that you can no longer see any infrastructure on the ground. That last point is the location of Bajo Chiquito which was the first reception point in Panamá. People are returning from Panamá to Colombia by boat. They then have to cross the Chocó overland because the boat trip across the gulf to Necoclí is too expensive, so they need help from the people in Juradó  and Bahia Solano on the Pacific coast.

I was having beautiful hallucinations when I was admitted to the hospital in Darién, Panamá. I had not taken anything as far as I know. I had the feeling for days that I was in control of them, and that by recalling the visual features, I could reproduce the experience. But I found that exercising that recall changed the memory slightly each time. Eventually, after about three days I lost the ability to see them as visual experiences. Now I have only an abstract visual memory of some of them. But I was desperately hoping my daughter would get me a phone on which I could make audio notes. Unfortunately between her Dra. Campbell and SENAFRON it was three weeks before anything remotely useful showed up. Subscribe to We Plants Are Happy Plants .

My comment : That was great! I hope something cool turns up in these two months. For some reason I thought several times listening to you of my journey from here to California in 2020/2021/2022. When I set off in August 2020 it was kind of gradual. First I got robbed, the second time in two weeks, and they got my phone so I just got on a bus to La Paz the next day I was so angry. Then I stayed there for nearly a month I think, and then I set off to the north of the country and suddenly I thought "I could go to Peru!" So I went to Peru, then I thought well, Peru has a border with Ecuador, so why not go to Ecuador. And I got to Ecuador and I thought "Wow, I'm nearly in Colombia!" So I went to Colombia and then I thought, ... well I was wrong about a few things there!! But I got to Costa Rica eventually, and Mexico was only a bus ride away, but it took an awful lot to get that together. Seems like the nearer I got to California the harder it got to go on. I got to ...

I don’t know how it is that you have friends in the US or how I could put you in touch with them. I have no influence over whether or not you have friends, or what kind of people you meet, and I imagine it’s difficult meeting people who are all desperately waiting next to the US/Mexico border. I also cannot help you over the border if you are required to already have a job in California or whatever.  I can’t go on a tour of Mexico and Guatemala with you, or on a tour of California. I can’t practically do it, and I also don’t want to. I haven’t seen you since I was ten and you regularly say on your YouTube channel that I disgust you and you hate me.
