All right. Hey, it’s Marjorie, and it’s Sunday, March 15, and I thought I’d show you some of the projects around the house. And I’m inside the house this time, and I want to show you I’m feeling very. So I have almost got this whole thing wired up. This is the inverter. I’ve got a, you know, a circuit breaker box. I got a place to plug stuff in. This is for the MC4 connectors for the solar panels. And I haven’t hooked up the. The battery cable yet. And, man, look at that stuff. Isn’t that just beautiful? Like, solid copper.

Stuff’s super expensive. I put the connection here, which means it’s going to be kind of a long run. If I would have thought about it, I should have had the connection down at the bottom to save on the money for it. But the really fun thing about this is I got this whole thing started, and the owner of the house says, no, you can’t put up solar system up on the roof. I’m like, okay, I’m gonna. We’re going month to month. That’s good. We. We both are good with that. And I’m gonna. I’m looking for other properties.

I had a fun. I got a really funny Puerto Rico property story for you. I mean, this is just so classic. Like, this is how it rolls. So I saw a really, really. A property that just looked like it would fit everything I wanted. Was surrounded by a lot of empty lots that I could possibly reach out the owners to rent for the rabbits and stuff. And the house was pretty big. It’s $2,800 a month, which is a little bit more expensive. I thought I could maybe negotiate that. So, anyway, I thought I would go drive by it first before bugging the realtor.

And I standing out in front of the house, and a woman comes out and I. And she says, what are you doing? You know, I’m like, hi, I’m. This house is for rent, right? And she goes, no, this is my house. I said, oh, I’m. I’m sorry. It’s not for rent. She said, where did you see that? Like, you know, the ad. 2800amonth. And she goes, well, I’ll rent it to you for 5,000amonth. And I’m like, all right, we’re on different planets. It’s okay. You be you. I’ll do me. I’m gonna let leave now anyway. That’s just so fun.

So let’s see here. We’ve got the duckos. Let me see if we can find the babies. There they are. Hey, sweeties. Ah. Let’s see if I can zoom in on you guys. Where are you? Come on, little ones. Oh, where did they go? See? Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep. I don’t know. Maybe Mama’s got them in the woods somewhere or something. Oh, and the. The baby rabbits are doing good. The cui have not had a litter yet, by the way. The cui, apparently, she, the female, the boy, the sow. 75 days.

So a month and a half, two months. Two and a half months. To thinking, like, she breeds, like. And he breeds her, like, right immediately after she’s given birth. Like, so she’s constantly pregnant. And I was talking to one breeder, and she goes, oh, my God. You know, I have a boar that was, like, trying to breed her as she was delivering and birthing. I’m like, oh, boy males. What can we say? Let me show you the baby bunnies that got born. So let me turn this. Okay. Look at this. Going. Okay. Hey, girls. All right, let’s see.

Hey, mama. Oh, oh, let me pull this back. So we’re not. So this is the black mama, and she kindled and she has created. If we get this out of the way, we got seven little babies. Hi, sweeties. Look at a little widdle bunnies. They’re so cute. She’s doing a good job now. She made them a nice little nest. She pulled fur. There’s seven of them. Sure, they’re. They’re all good. Now, this mama right here, brown mama, she kindled, and she had eight fat babies. She had, like, zero mothering instincts. Like, zero. Like, no mothering instincts whatsoever.

Gotta get this locked up here. I love bungee cords. And I did see her running around the cage with a little bit of, like, hay in her mouth, but she did not pull fur. The babies were in a pile. They were nice, big, fat, healthy babies. And they all died because they all froze or just got too cold because there was no fur to keep them warm and no nest. And she wasn’t doing anything with them. Oh, here’s the duckies. Hold on. Hey, guys. Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep. Yeah. Yeah. You guys are looking cute.

Yeah, super cute. Yeah. Oh, you’re getting so big, too. My goodness. They eat a lot. They’re good foragers. I don’t have enough. I don’t have enough forage for them here. So I’m trying to figure out things I can grow for them or they would do much better if I had bigger pasture for them to roam around on, but they’re doing fine. No, don’t follow me. No, don’t. Don’t follow me. No, no, you guys stay home. I don’t need ducks following me down the road. Yeah, as you can see, there’s, you know, there’s a lot. I actually bred one of the other does, and I’m gonna slow all that down.

I, you know, I’m producing a lot of meat here and even in this small space and then harvesting what I can off. Off of this lawn and then, you know, hitting a few places. I’ve got a little bit growing out in the jungle and sometimes on the side of the road. And actually this is getting ready for me to harvest again. Now I can produce. I can produce at least 365,000 calories a year. So. And I’m. I don’t want. I mean, I could do more, but I have to go out and harvest more and process more and.

Right. I don’t want to do that at this point in my life. Yeah. And I got to get another buck. And so that one doe who’s not doing so good, I, you know, actually both those does. I bred them once and they didn’t. I saw the take, right. I saw the buck. It’s very spectacular. The buck just like falls over and scream. You can tell he had a good time. And the second time they both kindled, but only one did the mothering properly. So I think I’ll breed her one more time, see if she catches on.

They’re both. They’re both young does, so we’ll see. But the dad has a scabies really bad. And my thinking is I want to raise up the babies and I may keep them a lot longer than I normally would normally process them almost like chickens, really, and two and a half months or so. But I want to see. Since the moms seem to be pretty immune to the scabies stuff, but the dad has it really bad, I want to hold on to them for a while and see which one of those offspring are also immune to the scabies stuff and see if we can keep developing.

Developing that characteristic. So that’s the plan. I did, by the way, I did find some Bailey. Like that in Texas. I’m gonna be going to pick some up and it turns out the most cost effective way to get them for me to fly there and then carry them underneath in my seat in A cat carrier. I’ll tell you all about that story. All right, so let’s keep. Let’s get. Yeah, they’re. They’re blowing things up. You know that, right? And one of the more important things is there’s no natural gas coming out of Qatar. And natural gas is a big problem because almost all the fertilizers in the world are made out of natural gas.

And we are in a. Just going to be in a world of hurt. Oh, my goodness. Look at that grass, man. I see grass now. And I’m thinking I should come here with my siphon. Get that for the. Get that for the. For the rabbits and kiwis. Anyway, we’re in a world of hurt. And then like 30% of the natural gas of the fertilizers in the world comes through that straight of hormones. So, yeah, that’s gonna be a problem. Yeah, man, if they shut off that Suez Canal or where they shut off the Panama Canal. Do, do.

It’s already bad enough with the straight of horn moots getting shut down. So really bad. Sarah Westall, again, all these things are kind of random as I just run into them all during the week. I don’t make enough money actually organize this. I don’t want to organize it. Anyway, she’s got a. She’s got a federal lawsuit with Google and YouTube because they. They said she. They suppressed unlawful speech and they portrayed her as a prostitute. I said, sarah, man, you got the bod. Like, you know, you could. You know, you’re looking good. Anyway, my mom always said there’s no such thing as bad publicity.

Well, Sarah ain’t taking it that way. She’s actually deeply offended. She’s got a lawsuit going on. She’s filed a complaint or a claim or something. Yeah, let’s see. Tucker Carlson talking about Israel using drones on itself and blaming Iran. Okay. Yeah, you know, like war. Right. Who actually shut down the Strait of Hormut. Right. Who actually is doing anything? And I do have an answer to that. Seeing some stuff people are talking about, like, we’re all preparing. They’re preparing us for Covid 2027, which is going to be energy lockdowns. Right. There’s not enough gasoline. Oh, here’s this cool car.

They’re having fun. We’re not going to be driving around like that. Oops. And yeah, I’m probably being a little safer out in the road, actually. When they shut everything down in 2020, I loved it. I was just walking down the middle of the road anywhere because there was no travel, no Cars. It was great. More birds were singing. Anyway, apparently there are some documents now that are linking bioweapons. So it’d be like the COVID and all that with Lyme’s disease. And apparently they injected a whole bunch of ticks with this to intentionally create Lyme’s disease in the population, so.

Oh, yeah, I got my pepper spray in my pocket here. I think that is pretty effective against the dog. Oh, raining last time. I almost messed up my camera when we did that. I see a big tree up there, a big old mango tree. I’m gonna stand under that. So Michael. Yum. Michael Yawn had a funny, funny headline on one of his things. You know, Michael Yawn is the war correspondent. I like that guy. He’s. He’s got good intel, right? And he. He pretty accurate. And he says I’m accurate because I cheat. And I said, how do you cheat, Michael? He says, I study history.

They’ve done all this stuff over and over and over again. If you read these old books from the 1800s. Oh, yeah, I’m gonna get under this tree. You read these old books. You’ll see all their tactics. They’ve done it over and over again. They just repeat it. It’s all the same. All right. Oh. Oh, my goodness. Let me see if I can show you this. Look at this mango. See, there you go. Oh, yeah. Look at these numbers. Mangoes. Beautiful. This tree really gives and gives and gives and gives. I. I come here and I get the mangoes.

Oh, I better get deeper into the shade of this tree. And, yeah, I feed the. Feed the rabbits mango a lot. Oh, boy, it’s really getting wet. I may have to. To pause this and get back to the house. So let me. Let me shut this down. Talk to you in a minute. Well, I found. Is this recording, I think? Oh, yeah, it is. Okay, I found a somewhat drier spot. Let’s. Let’s see how this goes and see if I can even read my notes. Anyway, Michael Yan’s headline was the Straighter Hormuts in the Last Supper.

And he’s like. He’s making the call, and nobody can argue with him. Famine. Famine. Famine. Famine. It’s coming. It’s gonna come hard and fast, and there’s no. At this point, there’s no backing down from it. All right, let’s see. Oh, man. I may not be able to do you justice to this because I can’t even read my own notes. I love rain. After living in droughty areas for years, I saw a whole bunch of stuff on YouTube. And I honestly don’t know if this is true or not. I shouldn’t have spent this time on YouTube. I felt miserable afterwards.

So don’t, don’t spend any time on YouTube where they were talking about. The US and Canada are really like almost fighting each other now. And like, Canada is going to shut off pharmaceuticals to the U. S. And the U. S. Is closed down six of the largest Canadian banks from operating in the U. S. And then the Canadians shut down banks in the U. S. And you know, like, there’s all this tit for tat going on. And I’m like, canada, why are you doing this? Like, what the heck is that even true? I don’t even know.

That would be very bad about the pharmaceuticals because a lot of people depend on lower cost pharmaceutical. A lot of people depend on pharmaceuticals, period. From Canada. So anyway, yeah, honestly, I’ve decided I’m not going to watch anything that’s AI generated anymore. Like, you know, even if it’s an influence. I know. And if it’s an AI Thing, I’m just not going to watch it. And it goes with that philosophy of look only at the good, the beautiful and the true. And AI ain’t true. It’s usually not beautiful or good. So that. Three strikes and you’re out.

Okay, let’s see what else I got here. Oh, yeah, the other thing about Canada is it made an announcement. That guy, I don’t know which one actor they’re using to run that thing now. What is his name? Anyway, he got that role and he says, we’re selling U.S. treasuries now. All of our U.S. treasuries. We’re going to get rid of them. 400 billion now. They’ve been quietly getting rid of us. Everybody has been quietly getting rid of US Treasuries for a long time. But like, this is official now. And then apparently a whole bunch of European countries sided with Canada.

Surprise, surprise, you know, because the Trump character is being portrayed as they can believe asshole to everybody. And that’s what his role is. So. Oh, well. All right. Warren Buffett, who is normally like the most pro American investor ever, is like, don’t think you should invest in America anymore. Like, really, Warren? Oh, no. All right. Apparently there’s some problems with Mexico also. I’m not sure if I believe that. Okay, Oracle, yeah, is using GROK and now has authorization to use AI on all the US Records, your medical records, if you’re using Medicare, all your. Whatever records you might have with the US Government can now Use.

And he’s actually using Gro Figure use. Have full access to all your records filed with the United States government. Oh, boy. So exciting. Oh, my God, this looks terrible. I’m probably missing a bunch of them. Yeah. Europe ditches guys. I can’t read it. Oh, apparently Europe is ditching Visa and MasterCard. Look, y’, all, the US dollar is over, right? It’s. It’s ending. And the whole bricks thing is coming in. I don’t know how real the bricks thing is going to be anyway. Texas. So Christian Westbrook. Let me see if I can get out now. It might actually be drier out on the street than under the Christian respro.

I love. He’s got that channel called Unshadowed. Oh, my goodness. What happened there? Oh, yeah, that was. He’s saying, you know, he was saying this, and then it started to happen that, you know, we’re all preparing for cyber attacks, right? The banks are extremely well funded, right? They know about cyber attacks. The cyber attacks are being hit. Hit on the food supply, right? So food distribution companies don’t have money for security for cyber attacks, right? They’re vulnerable, wide open. And sure enough, the biggest food distributor in Texas, it was a ransomware attack. They took all their files and they said, give us money or we’re not going to let you operate anymore.

I don’t know how that got resolved. They probably were given money. I don’t know. I don’t know. Oh, my Gosh, I’m using GoDaddy. I’m getting off of you, GoDaddy. If you know of a better registrar, please let me know. GoDaddy has gotten so sleazy. So they were wonderful for their help, right? You call them up and they’re so sweet and they’re so nice, and they help you, supposedly, which I’m finding out, actually often not. But they sound like they’re helping you. And then the guy was like, hey, you know, I see that your business is totally unprotected.

We’ve got a program just for $2,500. We’ll protect you from scammers. And I’m like, I don’t have $2,500. And I don’t think anybody’s gonna scam my business. You know, I don’t keep any customer information, certainly. I don’t keep any information, you know, anything of importance and all this and everything. He goes, oh, okay, okay. And then he goes off and does something. He comes back, well, we’ve got another program that’s only $250. I said, I don’t want that either. You go away. I said, would you fix my DNS records or whatever the heck it was I was asking you to do? Anyway, GoDaddy is a part of, like, Microsoft and all that.

And I. I want to get off of that. So if you know of a. A good URL place and web hosting place, let me. Let me know, okay? Oh, man, I can barely read this. I accidentally deleted the homegrown network website. So don’t do this. I would get. Really. Last week I was really pretty. Pretty sick. I actually recorded you a whole video and then I lost the file. And anyway, I was feeling really sick. And when you’re really sick, what you should do, Marjorie, is you should, like, just take a few days off and rest.

But I was like, no, I just gotta get a few things done right. And I don’t know what I did. I accidentally completely deleted the whole Grow Network website, which it’s. I’m really glad that all the files are basically on the legacy drive. Oh, dear. Yeah, like all the blog posts and all the Academy and all the videos and everything like that. But so anyway, the place to reach me, if you want to reach me is marjoriewildcraft.com There you go. I just laughed. I told you about that ten thousand dollar bill from aws, right? Okay. Like, yeah, I put.

I gave a bunch. Oh. If you bought anything from me over the years, I gave you links where you could download it because I knew I was shutting the Grow Network down. And then apparently y’ all liked it and told your friends and your friends told your friends and everybody was downloading it. And there is a cost to downloading stuff, and it’s Bill. $10,000. I’m just gonna laugh about this because I don’t know what else. I don’t know what other reaction to have. Anyway, it’ll work out. You can work out a payment plan with Amazon. I don’t know if that’s possible or not.

Oh, dear. This is totally insane to be walking around here out here in the rain. Okay. Oh, yeah. I’m pretty sure I’m missing a bunch of these because these notes are melting. 1900 years. The Pantheon in rome. It’s been 1900 years that the thing was built. It still has the largest freestanding concrete dome in the world. Pretty amazing. So I’ve really gotten into this channel on substat called Architecture and Tradition. And, you know, they just have these really beautiful photos, this amazing architecture, and it’s not like a big thing, but I’m Looking for things that are inspiring and uplifting because all the rest of the news just sucks.

That was a really good channel and it’s just. It’s just mind blowing the things that humans have built. It’s incredible. So yeah, I also am on this thing of excellence, right. And just trying to bring more excellence into common everything things that I do and that, you know, that engenders, you know, just self pride and you know, like washing the dishes or sweeping the floor and just getting that extra little bit or making sure that. That you know, taking an extra second to make sure it’s really well done and just thinking about excellence and living excellence.

You know, I feel good about myself. I’m like, I’m really doing, you know, not only the best I can, I’m doing the very best I can when I’m doing this thing, whatever it is. So yeah, really just, you know, we really have to shift because goodness gracious, the negativity out there is unbelievable. I actually have friends calling me up and they’re all depressed and we talk for a while and they feel better. Sometimes I get depressed and I call up my friends and we talk for a while and we feel better. But we’re in this like crazy shitstorm.

So we need to be looking at. Just little ways to stay happy and healthy. Right. You know, and so excellence and thinking about excellence and living from excellence is a great way to do that. All right. Oh my God. I really. All right, let me see if I can read the last page. Oh my God. No, it’s falling apart as we see. Okay. Oh, here’s a funny one. The block the sun blocking the. The blocking the sun while building solar panel farms. Yeah, that’s one of the biggest indications that we are all being seriously with. I love that saying.

It was pretty funny. That just made me laugh. Yeah, let’s see. Messaging. I don’t know what this means. Oh, here’s a really good tip for things to do. And that’s humming. Apparently it really stimulates your vagus nerve, calms your heart rate. It has a whole bunch of like really beneficial stuff. So do a little bit of humming every day. You know, Amazing grace is going. Yeah, just do some humming. So apparently humming has a incredible beneficial value. And you know, your vagus native nerve is One of the 12 cranial nerves is the biggest one, goes right down past the voice box there.

So when you hum it just kind of gives link a nice little gentle massage there. So who knows what other good things? Who knows what other good things I was going to tell you put that in here and. Yeah, all right, well, I do have a whole list of. I know I got some feedback from that last, those last ones I’ve been doing on like starting an herbal business or some bit different business ideas. And I ate chocolate way too late in the afternoon yesterday and I was up all night and came up with a whole brainstorm, a list of different businesses to start now start getting the resources for.

To be able to be functional, to be able to have something useful and meaningful to do post collapse. And also, you know, preparing for collapse in that way helps you to handle this transition. So you’re being more proactive, right? So if you’re gathering food supplies, if you’re buying seeds, if you’re, you know, I’ll show you something I do all the time, the local coffee shop. All right, did that, did that, did I show you that? Let me assume we’ll try to patch it again. See these, these buckets right at the local coffee shop, they throw them out in garbage and I just collect them.

They’re just constantly doing little things, big things, whatever I can do to prepare because this is to going, coming. Like don’t make any doubt about it. You’ve been watching me. You know it’s coming, right? And the more that we can go, okay, we know it’s coming and we’re just gonna gather. A lot of the things you can gather don’t cost anything. Some may do that, you know, and if you have resources to invest in other things, you know, you should be preparing and, and doing that. But being proactive about it and saying, okay, we know this change is gonna.

I can’t do anything about it like, or I can, I mean I meditate and on it but you know, other than that, you know, but being proactive about it and saying, okay, we know life is going to shift this way. What do we need to do? We need to start growing food. We need to start figuring out how to have some kind of business or some kind of income that’s useful, that’ll be tradable, that’ll be something viable and necessary for other people so that we can continue to interact and serve and do something. Man, there’s nothing worse than sitting around, you know, Remember reading one of those collapse books by that Russian he was talking about when the Soviet Union fell apart? He said it was such a shame.

Like a lot of the older men, usually they would just sit around the whole day just bitching and moaning. What if politics, you know, like if this hadn’t been voted on or that hadn’t have been put. That’s all they did. Meanwhile, their wives are like, hey, you’ve got a station wagon? Okay, I’ve got enough money, we can get petrol. Let’s. Apparently you could drive to China. Let’s go there and let’s pick some stuff up and bring it back and sell it. And, you know, like, they were using what they had and making, you know, they were being proactive about making stuff happen, right? So we need to do that.

We need to be proactive that this is happening. It’s going to be different. You’re not your physical body, you’re not whatever you think you are, mechanic, doctor, lawyer, whatever. You are a human being. And it doesn’t matter what you do at this point in time, we need to figure out how to maintain a lifestyle that is, you know, at least nourishing and, and, and comforting and, and reasonably abundant and plentiful. Right? It’s all going to be different. It’s all going to change. So you need to get ready for that. All right, well, I’m gonna see if I can stitch these pieces together and get this uploaded for you and I’ll get you that thing on businesses to look at here just in a bit.

We’ll talk to you later.
