The drug is the antidote

 
Natty, where are you?  Please talk to me because I love you.  I saw a flyer downtown for the sale of the land where I will build your house inshaAllah for 120k.  I am not allowed to profiteer off the Qur'an and the music thereof.  I suppose people view that with contempt enough to evict me, but I know that it is the greatest honor even though my heart is consumed with unhappiness.  All I can do is keep at it from day to day even though I can't make money from it, and pray that Allah will help me.

You can't get high when you're dead.  Thus the drug is the antidote, and the antidote is the drug.

Death of the city

 
Natty, where are you?  Please talk to me because I love you.  Aren't you going to wish me Happy Birthday?  Aren't you grateful I survived?  The taxman wished me Happy Birthday.  My Dad gave me 10 bucks.  

Don't think too much about it, folks.  I was boiling chicken livers and gizzards for the cats this morning.  I had the fire at full blast, but Lookie still went up there, stuck her paw into the boiling water and pulled out a steaming hot liver.  Greed!  Yeah I was standing right there, watching and gaping.  The liver wasn't done yet so I put it back in the pot, and she stuck a claw in my middle finger.  What am I gonna do, huh?  She's my kitty, and I have to love her anyway.  Later I gave her a chunk of liver, she didn't know what to do with it.  She just looked up at me.  I pointed to the food, then she ate it.

San Francisco used to be so beautiful.  Now it looks like a moat filled with gators to protect the castles of the wealthy.  Say... that's a clever idea.  Evil but clever.  Is that the same plan they have for all those migrants they're sending to the big cities, but instead of drugs it's food?  That means they need those migrants!  That also means it doesn't matter who you vote for!

Isolated humanity

 
Natty, where are you?  Please talk to me because I love you.  But don't you worry about a thing, my love.  Everything will work out just fine for us inshaAllah.

My mother once said I could live my entire life without leaving the house.  Well I need groceries, Mom.  But otherwise yeah, I guess I adapt quite easily to the cell phone generation.  And I don't even look at my phone all the time.  Most of the time it's playing tunes.

No more good men

 
Natty, where are you?  Please talk to me because I love you.  Yeah, there's a lot to think about right now.  Like how helpless we are in the tides of destiny.

My source tells me that my enemies wish to own the land I live on, then execute me as a squatter.  They are already making moves on the land where my grandfather's old house stands next to my house, the land I plan to build my wife's house inshaAllah.  My uncle used to own that land but he recently passed away, so the pressure is on the heirs.  If I fail to own these two properties then I must move away from this village to be married.

They're not the only fake Muslims out there, it's like a plague.  The end of the world, rather.  Of course I recognize the type because I used to be like them.  But what makes a good man, anyway?  Not just to abstain from evil acts, but to share your strength with others.

Movie night

 
Natty, where are you?  Please talk to me because I love you.  I expect you are living out of a suitcase right now, and hanging out with your intellectual friends.  Well, keep safe and healthy as you work.

Damned pesky assassins!  The hassle is discovering how high the chain of command goes.  Anyway, it's movie night!  Watch a movie with me!  "The Man With The Golden Gun" (1974).  This has to be one of my favorite Bond movies.  Roger Moore is perfect for the role, and even the campy humor is excellent.  A lot of Asia today still looks like what's in the movie despite the skyscrapers.  The edge this movie has over modern Bond movies is that Ian Fleming wrote the story.  No modern writer would think of a third nipple.  Yes, I've been to that island.  They sold seashell ornaments.

No heaven on earth

 
Natty, where are you?  Please talk to me because I love you.  I'm guessing you're out of hiding and back in the bosom of your society.  Me, I'm just trying to stay ahead of plots inshaAllah, there's always someone plotting, this comes with the job.  Alhamdulillah I know how to cook.

My 2 boys Helmut and Otto have always been very close.  They're fully grown now.  A few days ago, they started fighting with each other, probably over micro-territories.  The threats gradually got more intense, until they attracted the attention of their father.  Adolf concluded that Otto was the troublemaker, and kicked him out of the house (my being the token human was the enforcer).  After a day of staying outside crying his heart out plus a nasty encounter with an orange cat, I let Otto back in at 11 pm and his father forgave him and allowed him to stay.  He's been a meek boy since.  There may be no heaven on earth, but today I got peace among my kitties, and to me that is a great blessing.  Alhamdulillah.

How to roll a burrito

 
Natty, where are you?  Please talk to me because I love you.  Like I said before, at least YOU get to have money.  Imagine having to put up with all this shit and not have any money.  So give your thanks to Allah.

Alhamdulillah.  Well here I am, broke as usual.  It's a good thing I've been into tortillas lately.  Burritos are very filling.  I don't roll my burritos like the video above.  I used to work graveyard at Taco Time, so I always leave one side of the burrito open.  Hey that was a great job, I should have kept it longer.  Until today, I always get catatonically drowsy at 5:30 am.  Yes folks, you can stuff burritos with rice if you want.  Have a "nasi campur" burrito.  Don't put any bones in there.

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

Say, "O humans!  Verily I am a messenger of Allah to you, Whose dominion is the heavens and earth.  There is no god other than God, Who gives life and death, so believe in Allah and God's messenger, the unlettered prophet who believes in Allah and God's words.  Follow him, so you may receive guidance."

The Heights 7:158

I bear witness that there is no deity worthy of worship other than Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.

The accompanist, again

 
Natty, where are you?  Please talk to me.  I love you.  You have found that you don't like society as much as before since you found fame.  You have what others want and if you gave it up, you would lose your sustenance and people will hate you more.  We must be grateful with what Allah gives us.

Mary doesn't need an accompanist.  If it ain't broke, don't fix it.  If Mick Karn were alive, that would be a tempting option.  How ironic that Angie Bowie talked about a dead man, while staring at him in the face.

The future is now

 
Natty, where are you?  Please talk to me.  I love you.  Natalie, I'm going to have to use sterner language when you don't talk to me.  You don't have to Instagram.  Just email me.   Say, "Happy Birthday" or something.

The end of the world, that is.  The men you see in the video are young.  Eventually, the ugly old man will come out.  Do you think the young men in the video will behave like stubborn old men and try to stop the ugly old man from taking them over?  Or will they be feminine, and submit to the ugly old man in them?

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

8.  Or do they say, "He forged it"?  Say, "Had I forged it, then can you obtain nothing for me from Allah.  God knows best of that whereof you talk.  Enough is God for a witness between me and you.  And God is Oft- forgiving, Most Merciful."

The Winding Sand Tracts 46:8

Movie night

 
Hi Natty!  Are you having a crazy day, going around in circles? That's the Crazy Carousel!  How's the family doing?  I think you're having fun today.  So please keep safe and healthy.

It's movie night!  Watch a movie with me!  "Napoleon Dynamite" (2004).  This is an independent movie!  Nobody thought it would ever amount to anything.  It certainly made me laugh, I haven't done that in a while.  I hate to admit that Napoleon and Kip's suffering was funny.  Then it occurred to me why I must endure prolonged suffering: because it's funny.  The best part of the movie has to be uncle Rico's video:

Death stops the show to take a poop

 
Hi Natty!  How are you feeling?  It's a Girlie-Whirlie world, isn't it?  And you are my own personal Girlie-Whirlie!  I love you with all my heart, Honey.  I hope you are having tons of fun over there.  Please keep safe and healthy.

I always wanted a pet raven, and there were plenty of wild ravens back in Phoenix.  Ravens are supposed to be very smart, but I don't know of any raven that's housebroken.  Let's just say that it's easier to house train a cat.  I didn't have to house train any of my kittens: their parents taught them to use the litter box.

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

93.  And when We took your promise and We raised the mountain above you, hold fast with what We have given you, and listen!  They answered, "We hear and we disobey."  And absorbed in their hearts of the calf because of their disbelief.  Say, "Evil is that which your beliefs command, if you are believers!"

The Heifer 2:93

Crazy

 
Hi Natty!  What are you worrying about?  Don't be concerned about me, I'm a faithful guy inshaAllah.  I'll come around to you, you're my girl!  I wish you would talk to me more, but I guess that's not your personality.  Not with this current situation, at least.  But we have to play the hand we're dealt, right?  Don't worry so much, have fun, you can afford it.  Keep safe and healthy OK!

A singer can only sing one note at a time.  Right?  But that notation mess looks like the view from the top of a tower...

I hate cell phone Internet

 
Hi there, beautiful Natty!  How are you feeling today, my love?  I love you with all my heart!  I hope you are having a fabulous time over there, and keeping safe and healthy.

I've been listening to music a lot lately, of course I should.  I listen to a lot of nostalgia, a habit I acquired for thinking I would not survive as long as I have.  Nostalgia music doesn't have to be good, the song just needs to be on when something happens to you.  I try to keep an open mind, so I went through new music last night.  System Of A Down has a couple of excellent songs, and I also like that one song by Queens Of The Stone Age that no one knows.  But everyone else seems to be singing the same song, so I went back to the nostalgia.  I got all this work done in a couple of hours without interruptions.  I guess that was because I wasn't streaming.  What, those songs are at least 10 years old?  I'm a dinosaur even with new music.

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

77.  Have you not turned your vision to those who were told to hold back their hands but establish regular prayers and spend in regular charity?  When the order for fighting was issued to them, behold!  A section of them feared men as or even more than they should have feared Allah.  They said, "Our Lord!  Why have You ordered us to fight?  Would You not grant us respite to our term near?"  Say, "Short is the enjoyment of this world.  The hereafter is the best for those who do right, never will you be dealt with unjustly in the least!"

Mole sauce

 
Hi Natty!  That's nice of Lizbell to post 3 times.  Now that I've taken a second look at those photos, you seem high to me.  Are your bosses getting you high?  Please stay clean, Honey.  Being high on love is OK, because I love you too.  Please keep safe and healthy for us.

I once told a local that hot peppers and chocolate are a perfect match, and she looked at me like I were an idiot.  But that's the essence of mole sauce.  Sure, there are many recipes.  I make mole sauce to what conforms to my kitchen routine.  Here's a quick mole sauce recipe for you locals: add Milo powder to "sambal tumis" until it tastes good.

Salsa

 
Hi Natty!  How are you, Honey?  Are you feeling good and making lots of money?  InshaAllah!  Please keep safe and healthy OK!

I've really been into tortillas lately, but I didn't have any salsa.  Last weekend, I finally got around to making salsa.  But my stomach can't handle hot peppers anymore even though my mouth loves the heat.  So the most salsa I can consume at a time is one tablespoon.  One tablespoon!  That's like one sesame seed!  Perhaps I should make salsa without peppers.  That isn't salsa, though.

The neighbors

 
Hi Natty!  Oh Honey, I love those clothes!  I love the way they look on you, and you give them the perfect aura.  You are very beautiful, my love. Please keep safe and healthy as you work.

Thailand is less than 20 miles to the north of my house.  I don't go there very often, and I haven't crossed the border in decades.  But yes, a lot of the people do look like that.  Thailand might be the most trans country in the world.  They don't trickle over to this side, though: society gets strict once they cross the border.  Yet the aura permeates, as the locals are also the neighbors.

By the way, I predict that there will be a great famine focused on the advanced countries due to the wealthy and financial system not being adequately policed.  I advise all migrants to stay where the farmer is not oppressed, and people are allowed to grow their own food.  Don't go to America or you will be hot dogs!

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

72.  When Our Clear Signs are rehearsed to them, you will notice a denial on the faces of the unbelievers.  They nearly attack with violence those who rehearse Our Signs to them.  Say, "Shall I tell you of something worse than these Signs?  It is the fire!  Allah has promised it to the unbelievers, and evil is that destination!"

The Hajj 22:72

Global beauty

 
Hi Natty!  How are you feeling today, Honey?  I hope you are keeping safe and healthy.  Just trying to be as formal as possible in a crazy world.  It seems each country has its own beauty standard.  You are the most beautiful girl in the world to me.


Sunday, February 11, 2024

That time is past

 
Hi Natty!  Honey, do you often look at your photos when you first started modeling?  I have a few of those photos in my slideshow because they're so cute, and I just want to hug and kiss you!  You've become scary beautiful since then, I'm sure that's what you prefer.  I love you then and now!  I hope you are keeping safe and healthy over there.

The US government is historically pro-Israel, most likely due to intimidation from Jewish banks and media.  The presidential election is coming up this year, so both candidates have plenty of time to declare their love and support for the Jewish cause, and tell the white supremacists to go fuck themselves before that time is past.  Me?  Isn't it obvious?  Shadowplay is pro-Palestine.

The teen filter is another TikTok beauty filter, this one makes you look young.  I wouldn't get too emotional about it myself, because I prefer my adult self.  The discovery of music was great, but it took decades to discover its depth.  I suppose these people were feeling nostalgia.

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

118.  So say, "O my Lord!  Grant forgiveness and mercy!  For You are the Best of those who show mercy!"

It's what I can do

 
Hi Natty!  Are you holding on to that cell phone?  What a coincidence, so am I!  I hope you are having a nice relaxing weekend.  It's hard to relax when you're holding up a phone though, don't you agree?  They should make some sort of goggles where you can slip in the phone and enjoy a hands free experience.  I love smart phones!  Not for the phone part, but it was my dream 20 years ago to have a tiny computer.  I'm so grateful!  Hee hee we are the modern rock star and supermodel, Honey.  It's what we do.

Gold

 
Hi Natty!  Oh, you went shopping!  That's fun!  I wish I were there with you.  I want to go shopping too!  It may seem to people that I have a lot to buy, but that's an illusion.  I already stated what I need.  My wife is a fancy lady, though.  She's very pretty, and I love her with all my heart.  What else do you consider fun, Honey?  Please keep safe and healthy.

If gold had feelings, I wonder how it feel like to be gold?  It would still get thrown in the trash.

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

18.  And they worship other than Allah what is unable to bring them harm nor good, and they say, "These are our givers before Allah".  Say, "Are you informing Allah of something God knows not in the heavens and earth?"  Most Blessed and most High is God over that they join with God.

TikTok

 
Hi Natty!  I'm right here, just look over your shoulder!  Please don't feel blue, because you're my girl and I love you.  It's probably just melancholy from being on top of the mountain, but you can still enjoy yourself.  So don't you worry about a thing, everything will work out fabulously for us inshaAllah.  Keep safe and healthy.  Try to have fun, Honey!  You're a girl!

Check out what's going on TikTok, Natty.  So many people so very hungry for fame and fortune that they slurp at virtual ice cream.  TikTok fame is the opposite of grace and finesse.  Have you noticed the large number of pranks pulled on the innocent and unsuspecting?  All for fame, and perhaps a few coins that dissipate in a flash.  I'm thinking of featuring Mary Unknown7 on TikTok someday inshaAllah.  What do you think?  Not to make any income mind you, plus I'm sure they'll lie to me about my stats anyway like Google and Twitch do.  It's just another channel.  My approach to TikTok will probably annoy many people just like many people's approach to TikTok annoys many people.  So from that perspective, Shadowplay should be right at home on TikTok.  I need to upgrade my equipment first.  And Internet.  Cell phone Internet is so unreliable.

The queen bee from Texas

 
Hi Natty!  How are you feeling, Honey?  I hope you are coping with fame with grace and finesse.  You can do it!  Don't care so much about what the crowd says.  Hiding is wise, but it's not always an option.  Sometimes God yanks us out of our bunkers and makes us dance on the stage of circumstance.  Learn to "surf the crowd", Gidget.  Do talk to me, because I am for you.  You don't have to show yourself, just email me.  Say hi!  I love you, Natty.  Please don't break our connection.  That's what they want you to do.  Keep safe and healthy, and don't forget to have tons of fun OK!

Do you like quesadillas?  There's something about you that says to me, "I love quesadillas!"  I've really been getting into making quesadillas lately.  They're so much better than calzones!  Even though my quesadillas no have mucho queso, they're heavenly when hot off the griddle.  My stuffing is superb!  Alhamdulillah!  Now I need to make salsa, but tomatoes are expensive right now.  But I must have salsa!

I seek refuge with Allah from Satan the rejected.

78.  Wherever you are death will find you out, even if you are in towers built up strong and high!  If some good befalls them they say, "This is from Allah".  But if evil they say, "This is from you".  Say, "All things are from Allah".  But what has come to these people that they fail to understand a single fact?

There's a girl for everyone

 
Hi Natty!  It's lovely to see you again, and I must say that you are looking as beautiful as always.  That sure looks like a 70's glamour photo.  I suppose you have been holing up in your beach cave all this while.  Ah, the life of luxury!  I love you, Honey.  I must warn you not to trust flexible people and situations.  It's wiser to trust someone who's stuck in his ways and adheres to his schedule.  So before you believe what people say, observe their habits.  Keep safe and healthy.

Concert night

 
Natty, where are you?  Please talk to me.  I love you.

Sure she doesn't talk much to me, folks.  I guess she never has, then again I don't talk much to anyone period.  She's probably being harassed by jealous women and their gangs.  But when she's chaste, faithful and righteous then I have no case against her.  And it's certainly much better than a woman who's congenial and responsive, but sluts around in secret.  Don't you agree, folks?

Movie night

 
Natty, where are you?  Please talk to me.  I love you.

This has to be one of the strangest movies I've ever seen, but at least it has me talking to the crowd again.  Strange not so much because of the college philosophy or the means of travel from one world to the other.  The whole vibe is strange.  I feel it would have been a better movie if it were an hour long.  While it does ask a lot of questions, this movie makes me ask, "Should I sterilize all my indoor cats?"  The answer is, "No.  I don't believe that would be more compassionate, plus I wouldn't get kittens when needed."
