On the “reopening” of California…
The giddy headline proclaims, “Fair is Back, Santa Barbara Fair & Expo presents ‘Santa Barbara Rides Again.’” Editorial dignity alone prevented adding several exclamation points, I’m sure.
I can only imagine how the champagne-style eruption is affecting parents and children. Glory be! We get to have fun, finally!
I really, really want to be nothing but positive and uplifting about this microcosmic evidence of the hopefully imminent, macrocosmic worldwide reopening post-pandemic.
But alas, I still sense trailing wisps of dark energy, reaching to the fairground and reaching toward all of us.
Don’t have too much fun! We might yank you back into lockdown at any time. Because you’ve proven that we can.
*****
Still, I have a sense that the grasp of the dark energies is sliding off the industrial-level Teflon of hope and belief and moving forward that the very high vibrational energies flooding the planet seem to be encouraging even in people who aren’t conscious of those energies.
There seems to be a pervading sense that surely we’re done with this already. The article delivered the obligatory caveat with a certain lack of enthusiasm: “The crowd was largely unmasked as fully vaccinated individuals are no longer required to wear face coverings…unvaccinated folks are still required to wear a mask [in certain circumstances]…” (1)
Perhaps the paper’s editors left it at that because they’re only too aware of the giant fly in the globalists’ ointment-o’-doom: the only way to accurately discern who’s been jabbed would be to check everyone’s vaccine passport, a mandate for which has not yet been widely instituted in the United States.
My understanding is that in California, masks are only required for unvaxxed people indoors, or at outdoor gatherings of over 10,000. Hardly restrictive at all, right?
If the governor of our once-fair state gets his way, we’ll be vaxxed and tracked so quickly it’ll make our heads spin. But as of today that is not the case. As of today, we can feel free.

I haven’t checked elsewhere to see how the fairs, festivals, and gatherings that are now begrudgingly allowed by our governments are handling the vax-or-no-vax issue, nor if masking is being enforced, in certain venues, on children who aren’t eligible for the experimental “vaccine” (lucky them).
I believe New York and Hawaii are the only states in the U.S. that have instituted a vax passport, and I admit I haven’t kept up with their implementation, or checked if other states (or countries) are following suit. I have enough just to keep track of what dear Gavin is up to in Sacramento that affects me and my family directly.
*****
I have one big grain of hope that I doubt I’ll see publicized anywhere, as it’s a bit of a dirty little secret. Some in our medical industry appear to have gotten fed up with being perennially smothered, and having to smother their patients. In two recent incidences, personnel, including a doctor, simply ignored that I didn’t have a mask on. Scofflaw! But they didn’t care.
Shockingly, I even saw a couple medical professionals with masks dangling by one ear, or with masks pulled below chin. In plain sight!
It seems logical that what I’m seeing is representational of what’s happening all over—the microcosm-macrocosm dictum again.
Perhaps it’s because the outright lies of Dr. Fauci have made it into the mainstream, to some degree. The mental extrapolating begins: If he lied about that…what else have he, and the CDC, and other agencies, foreign and domestic, lied about? What is the truth about this pandemic?
I suspect that the unvarnished truth about the pandemic, like the unvarnished truth about 9/11 which may or may not be widely revealed soon, is the prototypical game-changer. The cascade of lies revealed could be massive, and so could the resulting upheaval.
*****
Meantime, back at the fair or the festival or the annual event that communities rely on for connecting, for making money for local nonprofits, and for boosting regional economies…there may be surreptitious disobedience.
What form might that take? The possibilities are as endless as the restrictions they keep trying to impose, or re-impose, upon us.
I have hope that Nuremberg 2.0, spearheaded by attorney Reiner Fuellmich, is well underway, and stops the globalists in their tracks before my favorite Fall festivals begin. I sure as heck won’t qualify for a vaccine passport, so I’m rooting for massive legal action to pave the way back toward our freedoms.
For now, I pray for a smidgen of governmental common sense to prevent the imposition in California of an illegal and intrusive vaccine passport.
To me, that would be the final straw. And I hope I won’t have to find out what I would do, if that happened.
