The lines that proved particularly earwormy weren't the ones about the air-conditioning man, though, but "We could learn to read and write in Portuguese or Korean / But you always want to bomb the Middle East."
Later in the day, I ended up browsing a meme post from Bayou Renaissance Man, which was linked on Synlogos. One of the memes caught my eye because of the Humpty Dumpty reference:
Another got my attention because it was about Portuguese -- one of the languages you could learn to read and write in instead of always bombing the Middle East.
Foca is the word for "seal" in Spanish and Italian as well, so it's not clear why Portuguese was selected for the meme.
Later, on the road, I stopped behind a motorcyclist wearing a white jacket printed with a pumpkin motif. Then I noticed the helmet she was wearing: white, with the face of a baby seal on the back and "Little seal always do nothing" printed on the side. I found this photo of a similar helmet online:
I thought, "That's the second seal today, or rather the third." This idea of giving ordinal numbers to seals made me think of Revelation 6, where the seven seals are opened one at a time -- "And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see" (Rev. 6:3) and so on. From there, my mind went to Bill's connecting Jewish mobster Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel, whose surname means "seal," with certain other seals in Revelation. Bill had gone right on to expound on the significance of Siegel's Flamingo Hotel.
And lastly, Siegel itself was an occupational name worn by someone who either made Seals or was responsible for their management and distribution. This would seem to be a nod to the 144 and the need spoken of in Revelation to "Seal" them, and have a Name written on their foreheads. Or at least that all comes together nicely in the name of Benjamin Bugsy Siegel, despite his real life association with the mob and criminal activity. But we are dealing with inverted symbols, sometimes, and corrupted storylines. One thing I've mentioned is that even the Holy Ghost would/ will come to be viewed as an Outlaw or criminal by some. It all depends from whose perspective and whose set of laws. Certainly in Ungoliant's kingdom.To top off the Bugsy Siegel analogy, in helping build Las Vegas, he was most closely associated with the Flamingo Hotel, since he opened it. Flamingo literally means "Flame Colored" or "Red Feathered", like our Phoenix analogy, as well as the Red Colored one I just mentioned in a comment on your other post who was surrounded by the 24 Elders.
This train of thought was interrupted when I arrived at my destination, where I was stopping to pick up something my wife had ordered. I parked my motorcycle and spent maybe five minutes inside, but when I came out there was something on the pavement right next to my bike which I was pretty sure hadn't been there before: a pin in the form of a metallic blue flamingo.
Flamingos are pink -- or, etymologically, "red" -- and Bill had focused on the flamingo as a symbol of the Phoenix and the Red Red Colored One. A blue flamingo is not a normal thing.
When I was getting a link for the Cheekface video above, Google informed me that people also searched for their song "We Need a Bigger Dumpster." Here it is:
It's about a dumpster fire:
I lit a matchI threw it in the trashI tossed it all in the dumpsterThe dumpster fire got biggerNow we need a bigger dumpster and a book of matches
There's also a reference to numbered seals:
Seal Team 6 is here saging everything
A few days ago, I saved this meme about a dumpster fire:
As mentioned above, Bill linked the Flamingo to the Phoenix.
15 comments:
Heh, that tweet appeared in my browsings a few times in the last week.
"We Need a Bigger Dumpster" could be an anthem for the This Is Fine meme.
knowyourmeme.com/memes/this-is-fine
Hmm, I kind of like "multidimensional dumpster phoenix".
I thought the Cheekface lyrics in the first song were interesting where he sings:
Meanwhile I?
I'm going back school!
I've been eating mush all week
and it's time for round food!
In your dream of the blue shop, the Kellogg's Corn Flakes had been replaced with Kellogg's Muesli. Muesli is a word that means Mush or Mush-like food. That cereal was said to be preferred by "Boomers"... perhaps a play on words for people who make things go Boom (people who like to bomb the Middle-east would be Boomers in that sense, for example).
Conversely, there was round food in the shape of tarts and cookies. And, of course, in the broader story, Stones would be round sources of "food".
It is then interesting that he follows up those words with mention of a ruthless dictator and a straw-man strongman.
Going to the Dumpster Fire, apparently Dumpster comes from a word that, weirdly enough, means "Judge". A Fire of Judgment, or something like this, which fits in with a lot of prior symbols. Burning of the Tares comes to mind, as a Dumpster Fire is a term used to reference something unfixable. In the parable of the Wheat and the Tares, everything "fixable" (the Wheat) is gathered out, and what is left over is burned: the Dumpster Fire, in other words.
This may correlate with my dream last fall of the large Phoenix who was enveloping the Earth in a large plume of fire. Along with the image were the words "Phoenix to unleash Hell on Earth, such as they have never known".
I was also interested in the reference to a "Book of Matches", and when I read it in your quoted lyrics, I immediately saw it for its alternative meaning of Match. Match can be a thing which lights a fire, as is implied in the song, but it can also be used to describe two things that perfectly resemble each other.
In my story, a Book in Heaven (Tirion) and a Book on our Earth will be linked and shared in such a way as to create two perfect matches of each other (going back to the imagery we just discussed from the Deuce of Cups). Further, this completed Book will be compiled and matched by a Husband and Wife pair. If you look up Match, it includes this definition:
"one of a pair, an equal...companion, mate, one of a pair, wife, husband, one suited to another, an equal".
So, I think this Book of Matches is a pretty good hit for this Book, and a likely symbolic reference we can pull out. It also ties in very directly the earlier commentary on the Phoenix and the Dumpster Fire.
Oh, huh. In my Wuthering Waves adventuring, the primary storyline has just bid me remove three magical seals from a tower to gain access.
William,
Part 1 of 2
Another perspective and a possible
big picture message/meaning,( which
may OR may not be YOUR message) is quite SIMPLE
IMHO which is this:
A Phoenix is symbolic of transformation. As is a Bat.
A Phoenix is the PHONE-X.
There are many films which hides this coded
message regarding a phone.
Superman ( Übermensch), Batman and The Matrix
to name just a view.
All of these archetypes mentioned above
transformed in someway because of a phone.
Superman 'changed' inside of a phone booth.
There is a special Bat phone which served as communication
to convey Batman's missions. In the movie the Matrix
it was the phone which served as a portal to exit or enter.
Big picture meaning?
I believe that for us (humanity's transformation )
it is the 'cell/mobile phone that is going to 'transform us '
into the Silicon (Data) Age.
IMO, our cell phones (phoneX ) has always been the portal
that will take us to The Great Reset.
X is symbolic of Osiris Rising.
Copy and paste:
Osiris (/oʊˈsaɪrɪs/, from Egyptian wsjr)[a] was the god
of fertility, agriculture, the afterlife, the dead,
resurrection, life, and vegetation in ancient Egyptian
religion.
He was classically depicted as a green-skinned deity
with a pharaoh's beard, partially mummy-wrapped at the legs,
wearing a distinctive atef crown and holding a symbolic
crook and flail".
~~~~~~
X is very Like the Eight point Star of Ishtar because X
too is EVERYWHERE .
Recall the Lynyrd Skynyrd video I recently linked with
the Skynyrd performance of Sweet Home Alabama.
The Confederate Flag is flying high on Stage
which of course the Confederate Flag is an X.
America is Osiris Rising.
Osiris' phallus is the Washington Monument.
. The Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in DC is symbolic
of the Nile where Isis found almost all of Osiris' body except
his phallus, which is why the Washington Monument is
aligned with the Reflecting Pool and also with the
Captial Dome which the Dome is symbol of Isis.
Osiris' crook and flail makes an X ( see wiki).
Regarding the blue Flamingo pin you found,
note that the Flamingo also makes a cross
with its legs.
Also note that when the colors Blue and red
are mixed it produces the color purple.
Purple is symbolic of royalty and transformation.
I found this interesting information about
the mythical phoenix's color according
to Pliny the Elder
copy and paste: wiki link below
"The story is that it is as large as an eagle, and has a gleam
of gold round its neck and all the rest of it is ****purple,
but the tail blue picked out with *** rose-colored
feathers and the throat picked out with tufts,
and a feathered crest adorning its head."
William,
Part 2
Continuing on with the Skynyrd connection :
In the video I shared recall the performance was in July 1977
and Skynyrd's plane crash was on Oct 20, 1977.
Oct being an ember/amber/fire month.
The phoenix rises out of the fire.
Interestingly Skynyrd ( earlier in that month (Oct 17)
had just released their new album Street Survivors.
Check out the cover of the album on their wiki
page ( link below ). Note the fire.
After the plane crash, the fire cover was replaced
but many copies had already been released.
A bat too is symbolic of transformation as I've
shared my perspective about many many times
on your blog. Recall I shared
that Marshall and I have had numerous bat
visits in our house for many years.
We had a recent bat visit , about a week or so ago.
The bat visit before that was also in early July
of last year. Our beloved dog Jacob died
late July 2024 which I think the bat was
a harbinger of Jacob's death.
Bats are harbingers of transformations.
And you may ask why I would connect a bat
to a seal and a phoenix?
This is why:
When I first read your post about a seal I immediately
thought of the singer Seal whose beautiful
song Kiss From a Rose was very popular.
Kiss From a Rose was released in 1994.
July 11th . Another 11 and ruby connection.
When I googled Kiss from a Rose I had forgotten
that "Kiss from a Rose" was the second single
from the Batman Forever film soundtrack.
Coincidently,
The Nigredo, Seal Henry Olusegun Olumide Adeola Samuel
aka Seal, was born on Feb 19. My birthdate.
Different years of course;-))
Other interesting puzzle pieces that connects me
with this song is of course the Rose, which I've shared
with you many times regarding my many dreams
about Rudolph Steiner and my VERY intriguing
dream I titled :
Fama Fraternitatis - you guys are from Germany?
My Fama dream was in 2011. My Rudolph Steiner
dream was in 2003.
I DID NOT Know about Steiner or the Fama Fraternitatis
manifesto or the Rosicrucian before the dream(s).
Also in my Fama dream I was sitting
in a very large beautiful auditorium with plush red seats
and a red velvet curtain on the stage
which after many hours and years of research I stumbled
upon Steiner's Goetheanum.
I was absolutely shocked when I found the Goetheanum.
It was a huge puzzle piece solved for me.
After a gazillion years of research all sparked
by the symbolism in many of my dreams
especially the Fama, Steiner and Oscar dreams,
I've come to believe
that I had a past life connection with that
part of the world too i.e. Switzerland and Germany.
Also in the Kiss from a Rose Video, note all the
blue (like the Flamingo) and Green.
Another Blue-Green sync perhaps?
The Trickster ( who is the Riddler) is green
and is also in this Batman movie. Recall my comments
about the Green Language aka The Language of the Birds.
Bats and Phoenixes of course are birds.
As shared, I personally believe that sometimes
when a sync crosses our path it may OR
it may not be for us alone.
Maybe your seal and phoenix sync is also
for me simply because of the fact that it
connects to many
of my puzzle pieces.
Thank you for posting it.

William,
I also found this interesting regarding seals,
Copy and paste :
"Sleep
Pinnipeds spend many months at a time at sea,
so they must sleep in the water. Scientists have recorded them
sleeping for minutes at a time while slowly drifting downward
in a belly-up orientation.
Like other marine mammals***** seals sleep in water
with half of their brain awake****
so that they can detect and escape from predators,
as well as surface for air without fully waking.
**** When they are asleep on land,
both sides of their brain go into sleep mode.***
~~~~~~
I thought that was very noteworthy given
your recent wake up/ Golden Slumber syncs
and baptism ( water) posts.
Also given your recent post about ears, I found this
interesting about Elephant Seals,
copy and paste:
"The elephant seal is an
enormous, earless seal that travels the ocean.
It is known for its large nostrils,
which resemble those of an elephant. There
are two varieties of elephant seals;
northern and southern."
~~~~~~~
Maybe your Old High German Willahelm,
helmet (to cover, conceal, save) sync
is at the helm with a message for you.
Maybe asking :Little seal or big seal?

Also returning back to Batman Forever
I found the official trailer to the movie.
Note the dumpster fire scene in the trailer.
Also note the fire that comes out from the tail pipe
of the Batmobile looks pink, at least it does to me.

William,
Sorry for all these comments, but I decided to google
Black Seal ( of course because the singer
Seal is Black ).
I found this interesting information about a book
by Arthur Machen title: The Novel of the Black Seal.
What got my attention is this,
copy and paste:
"The Novel of the Black Seal" is a horror story
by Arthur Machen,
part of his 1895 novel The Three Imposters.
In its account of a hidden society of malevolent
****Little People...."
~~~~~~~~~~~
The reference to little people is interesting
given the little seals syncs.
Also in this review of Machen's book ( link below )
there is reference to a black stone,
copy and paste:
"...a series of etchings in a strange language
found near a lonely place where a girl disappeared
without a trace, and an odd stamp, or **** seal,
made from a black stone"....
~~~~~~
Recall I've commented many times including
just recently about the black stones in the
2009 Nick Cage movie:
Knowing, which also has connections to
not only the black stones,
but also the 40th parallel north.
Isn't it interesting how one sync, much like
a spider web, leads to another
and another and....
A vast spectrum of threads.
Sync fairies be spinn' busy, no?

Debbie's reminded me that on Sunday, I woke to the chorus of Seal's "Crazy".
youtube.com/watch?v=Oj3gIqTsOXc
Wandering Gondola,
Note on both the image cover on the single
Kiss From a Rose ( see wiki link )
and the Crazy video you linked, note that
Seal is standing where A is not visible.
The only remaining letters are SE L.
See-- L(EL) perhaps?
The EL's are the Shinning Ones.
In the darkness the Moon shines.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiss_from_a_Rose
Debbie's mention of Seals' "Kiss by a Rose" and its association with Batman Forever had me curious about looking up the official music video. It featured scenes from the movie, and I had forgotten that Val Kilmer played Batman in that film.
It then struck me that Val Kilmer was in Top Gun, another movie that has given us some mileage. In the original, he went by the call sign "Iceman". You've made a lot of comments lately about the Frozen Man, including your recent one in response to wanting mercy but only receiving ice: "The frozen man wants mercy, but what has he got? Just ice." Seems like a direct reference to an Ice Man.
I wonder if the Flamingo is blue because he is frozen? Glacier ice, for example, appears blue. Glaciers are large perennial sheets of ice that cover land, like what we might find on Numenor.
WW,
Another Batman with an ice connection is in the 2005 movie
with Christopher Bale titled : Batman Begins.
And yet another Phoenix ( transformation archetype)
having an ice connection,
is Superman's latest movie released July 11.
Although at first glance one might say that
the Phoenix is a fire symbolism and
ice is not, but look again. Dry ice burns
just as severe.
Both Superman and Batman are symbolic
of transformation.

WW,
Good catch about the color blue and the Flamingo.
Ice also has 'crystals'.
WW,
Yet another icey blue-gray connection is Silicon.
As stated I believe that we (humanity collectively)
are being shifted from
the Industrial age to the Silicon (data) Age.
Copy and paste:
Silicon is a chemical element; it has symbol Si
and *****atomic number 14.
It is a hard, brittle crystalline solid
with a *****blue-grey metallic lustre,
The "Silicon Age" refers to the late 20th century
to early 21st century. This is due to silicon being
the dominant material used in electronics
and information technology
(also known as the Digital Age or Information Age),
similar to how the Stone Age, Bronze Age
and Iron Age were defined by the dominant
materials during their respective ages of civilization."
~~~~~~~~
Please allow me to stress that I absolutely believe
this shift aka The Great Reset is being done
by and has always been
the final frontier of the Negative Polarity.
I placed asterisks before the number 14 because
I believe 14 to be very symbolic number.
14/41 is a very symbolic number ( as is 40
and as is 144, 000)
Copy and paste:
"Unus pro omnibus, omnes pro uno is a Latin phrase
that means One for all, all for one.
It is the unofficial motto of Switzerland,
and the attitude is epitomized in the character
of legendary Swiss hero Arnold von Winkelried.
A French version,
Un pour tous, tous pour un, was made famous
by Alexandre Dumas
in the 1844 novel The Three Musketeers."

1 4 all..... and....all 4 1.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon
Since Maverick's navigator, Goose, came up in the various Top Gun symbols, I was curious about the call sign for Iceman's. It was Slider.
I thought this was interesting. To slide is a word that can mean to "glide or move smoothly over a surface", but interestingly it also means "to fall, lose one's balance through slipping". With all of the Humpty Dumpty references, if I read about one losing their balance and falling, I am going to at least give that consideration. However, this also ties to Roy Jay. He had a call sign of sorts with his signature "Spook!" and "Slither!". If you look up Slither on Etymonline, the first meaning is "to slip, slide". Thus, Roy Jay was a Slider.
I also remembered that Val Kilmer played the role of the terminally ill Doc Holliday in Tombstone.
Doc Holliday died of Tuberculosis, but back in the day it was called Consumption. In looking up Consumption, or rather its root Consume, I was struck by yet another very direct Humpty Dumpty reference. To Consume, per Etymonline's first definition, means "to destroy by separating into parts which cannot be reunited, as by burning or eating,".
It was the separating into parts that can't be reunited that was very Humpty specific ("all the King's horses and all the King's men couldn't put Humpty together again"). Consumption also described the fate of the lilies, both in terms of being eaten, but also burned with fire.
A Consumer was one who "squanders or wastes" and "one who uses up goods and articles". This is what happened to the lilies. In Daymon's writing and story, whoever is speaking there makes it clear that that was all they had - there is maybe a small cup somewhere preserved, but the Numenoreans and Wolves destroyed the rest of it. I don't know how accurate that account is, obviously, but it does fit with some of the possible feelings and intent behind the "Dry Jack Stolen" and other messages.
Just some thoughts as I looked into names and various links.
Interestingly, given all of that, Doc Holliday was on the Lawmen's side, or the good guys, in the ultimate showdown at the OK Corral. In the movie, Kurt Russell played Wyatt Earp. We've seen Russell before in some symbols, including Santa Claus, and his name means Red-Haired/ Little Red Counselor.
Doc Holliday's real name was John Henry. That name is shared by the mythical railroad builder. Given references to a Rail Road, and a Railer, I thought that was interesting.
