Hello beautiful humans!
It's been a while since we've seen each other... Well, unless you were just in Gause, Texas at the first ever #FloteFest!
This may actually be the longest I've gone without posting anything in a few months, at least.
Don't worry, I've got some things lined up for you :-)
Anyway, next weekend (March 18 - 21) is the next [Tribal Vision Festival](http://tribalvisionfestival.com/new-events/2021/3/18/tribal-vision-spring-equinox), at the *[Texas Music Ranch](https://www.texasmusicranch.com/)*, in Austin, Texas.
I've been going to TVF since 2015, and it's a wonderful event, that has been going for over a decade now, and just last year went from being annual to quarterly: occurring on each Equinox & Solstice.
Here's the flyer:

Hello beautiful humans!
Welcome to another beautiful day, and the beginning of another beautiful year!
To start of 2021 right, I'll be doing a video-a-day again, at least for the month of January, **and** I just registered for the [Grey School of Wizardry](https://www.greyschool.net/). Excited to dive into more realms of magic, with some guidance & support - in addition to my own research and spell-crafting.
Tomorrow I'll be taking another wonderful train ride across the continent, heading for Colorado and the annual *CommUnity Share Fest*... then most likely on to Mexico for a while.

Here is the wildly anti-scientific post from the CDC. No evidence of any kind, just their "belief" - belief that they need to increase their vaccine sales numbers that is. The fact that there are still folks falling for this scam is mind-blowing.

Hello beautiful humans!
Welcome to the first of what will hopefully be many videos recorded in @ELAmental's newly finished sound studio. This one was just recorded with my phone, as usual, so you'll have to go check out [his posts](https://peakd.com/hive-116127/@elamental/thunda-from-da-underground-elamentals-1st-beat-complete-video-of-instrumental) to get some samples.
Anyway, the real reason I came to chat with you today was to discuss @reward.app, a wonderful project started by @acidyo & @cardboard. Basically, it allows you to receive your post rewards in a 100% liquid form (half HIVE, half HBD) instead of in the usual half liquid, half staked form.
Besides converting the rewards to liquid, @reward.app also keeps 1% for the project, and 4% is distributed to everyone who voted on the post. This second part is a huge bonus in my mind, allowing me to reward my followers & supporters, as well as incentivizing people to vote on my content :-)
[Here's the quick guide](https://peakd.com/hive/@reward.app/reward-app-quick-guide-updated) on how to use @reward.app, which is now available on @leofinance as well.

Obviously there are **all sorts** of ways in which community is important.. but today I want to speak specifically to the ways in which using *Hive Communities* will greatly increase one's success on & enjoyment of the platform.
Hive Communities have been around for just over a year now, after being anxiously awaited for years. [Communities](https://peakd.com/steemit/@steemitblog/communities-have-arrived) are built on [Hivemind](https://github.com/steemit/hivemind), which was [launched in early 2019](https://peakd.com/hivemind/@steemitblog/hivemind-is-live).
So, what is a Hive Community? As @Eco-Alex put it in his post *[In's and Outs Of Communities](https://peakd.com/hive-175001/@eco-alex/in-s-and-outs-of-communities-what-s-changed-what-the-least-you-need-to-know):*
> *Think of communities as a special place to put something. Rather than sharing a post with the entire Steem ecosystem, when you post using a community page, or hive-tag your post does not appear on your blog feed. There is an option to share your community posts to your blog feed if you want, but you have to manually do that on each of your posts. If you do use other tags they WILL still appear in those feeds.*
I am a fan of having this functionality, to be able to post something that's not a comment, but isn't a blog post on your front page or in your followers' feeds either. I think the cross-posting combined with extreme auto-voting might be an abuse issue somewhere, but the community will deal with it, like we do everything else. @Jarvie wrote a great piece about this: *[THE GRAND ADVENTURE... Choosing where you want to put your post.](https://peakd.com/hive-175001/@jarvie/choose-your-own-adventure)*
Down below is a list of some of the active communities that I like.This is in no way an inclusive list of all the Hive Communities, by any means. It does, however, include all the ones I'm subscribed to, the communities for projects I support as well as many great Hive projects I personally don't use.

It's been a long time since I did one of my [Sunday Cinema Reflections](https://peakd.com/hive-110786/@kennyskitchen/sunday-cinema-reflections-9-the-transformers) posts... and this isn't one of those, but I definitely wanted to let y'all know just how great the new Ryan Reynolds film **Free Guy** is.
It's freaking great!
Imagine if the movies **They Live**, **Ready Player One**, and **Tron** all got rolled into one thing... that's pretty much this :-)
We've got a whole illusory world, and our main character waking up to it (with the help of sunglasses)
We've got all kinds of references, a great soundtrack, a wonderful tale of AI, and it is absolutely hilarious. *(If you dislike Ryan Reynolds, you may not enjoy this as much, but he does a great job.)*
It's good enough that I've watched it twice in the last week or so.

Things are still pretty quiet out here at Tribal Vision, but the energy is great, lots of delicious food & tea is being served, and the weather's great! A bit of music going, there was a pretty great piano player earlier. If you're within a few hours of Austin, Texas and are looking for a way to connect with community this weekend, come on out!
Anyway, I really just wanted to drop in about the importance of staying open, not locking future you into things that they may not consent to, and remembering that consent is a question that is always being asked, just like science. Things that we "knew" because disproven, just like a "yes" becomes a "no" as soon as the decision to no longer consent is made.
So many blessings everyone! Hope you're having a beautiful Equinox weekend!

This morning a good friend of mine sent me a link about Oregon HB 3063 [1], which has been submitted to the House of Representatives, and if passed would eliminate all mandatory vaccine exemptions except for medical diagnoses (ex. auto-immune disorders & allergies to ingredients)
For those of you who aren't aware, vaccines do not offer immunity (though that is the word that they choose to use in the bill), never receive double-blind testing (as required of all other pharmaceuticals), and in many cases actually increase the chances of getting the disease (and even more often they cause the recipient to "shed" the disease to others.
If you've been following my work, you know that I've started a series called "Down the Vaccine Rabbit Hole", of which I've only released part one [2] so far. I've been feeling the call to get rolling on it once again, after taking a couple months to process the darkness of the history I learned so far.
For those of you who aren't familiar with what a State of Emergency means in the United States, Inc., it basically gives the government carte blanche to do whatever it would like, including suspending habeas corpus, calling in the national guard, and otherwise throwing the constitution out the window. While Washington has already declared a state of emergency [3] due to the "measles outbreak", the fact that Oregon is planning a bill to do so in one year clearly violates Glass v. Board of Common Council, 262 Ky. 471 (Ky. 1936) [5], which states "Existing and continuing conditions are never considered emergencies."
Measles is just one of the many things for which vaccines are being pushed currently, and it's interesting to see the difference in how the media & government handle it now, versus how it was covered before there was a vaccine to market: https://youtu.be/mDb0ZS3vB9g
Of course, one of the main idiocies of the vaccine pushers is that they claim vaccines offer immunization, then turn around and say that un-vaccinated children are spreading diseases to those who got the vaccine. If vaccines were actually effective at what their claimed goal is, then vaccinated people would have no reason to ever worry about the un-vaxxed, as they would be immune.
Here are three pieces on the idea of herd immunity, all from doctors (in case the appeal to authority matters to you):
* Dr. Russell Blaylock: https://therefusers.com/herd-immunity-from-vaccination-is-a-myth-by-dr-russell-blaylock-md/
* Dr. Tetyana Obukhanych: http://www.tetyanaobukhanych.com/herd_immunity.html
* Dr. Kelly Brogan: https://kellybroganmd.com/herd-immunity-fact-fiction/
However, it is obvious that while the US government & corporate media like to say that vaccine are safe, their actions say otherwise. In 1986 the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA)
