MERCURY RETROGRADE. It’s back. Like Freddie Kruger. Worst effects (this week) will be on Wednesday for your domestic situation but on Friday there is an alignment with Saturn retrograde, so expect a globally/historically significant catastrophe. Feel free to place your bets on the specific form below. I’m getting earthquake vibes, but that could also be referring to the seismic events of a very large bomb. That brings us to three of the possible five reversible planets moving retrograde, so expect bullshit levels to be at 60% of theoretical maximum. Venus retrograde backs into Libra, so if that’s your sign expect a cold and lonely bed. Move your investments out of goats.
Scorpio: 3 of Coins reversed – Mediocrity, puerility, pettiness, weakness.
Sagittarius: Ace of Wands – Creation, invention, enterprise,, principle, beginning, source; birth, family, origin.
Capricorn: Blank Card reversed – means the same thing as when it’s drawn upright.
Aquarius: 2 of Coins – Recreation, games, newsm exchange of messages.
Pisces: Queen of Cups – Good, fair woman; honest, devoted woman, gift of vision; success, happiness, pleasure; also wisdom, virtue; a perfect spouse and a good mother.
Aries: 2 of Cups reversed – Broken promises, relationships ended.
Taurus: Queen of Swords reversed – Malice, bigotry, artifice, prudery, bale, deceit.
Gemini: 10 of Wands reversed – Contrarieties, difficulties, intrigues.
Cancer: Strength – Power, energy, action, courage, magnanimity, complete success, honors.
Leo: Strength in opposition, delay, suspension, adjournment, gatekeeping.
Virgo: 6 of Wands – Victory, great news, hope leading to success.
Libra: King of Wands – Dark, honest man, conscientious, has news of upcoming events.

GAAAH! Not Mercury Gatorade! Speaking of which (but not the red or orange stuff) and other clear liquids…
…TT has a colonoscopy scheduled. 😕️
As for me…
…I guess I’m not going to get the house as clean as I’d like during the coming week off from work. 😞️
Don’t bother cleaning before the colonoscopy prep anyway.
Sagittarius: Ace of Wands – Creation, invention, enterprise,, principle, beginning, source; birth, family, origin.
Time to apply for that government research grant.
Taurus: Queen of Swords reversed – Malice, bigotry, artifice, prudery, bale, deceit.
Well, I do intend to stay abreast of the news this week…
Earthquake?
Come on Cascadia Subduction Zone!!
Not earthquake, EARFQUAKE!
Isn’t that another flare to call Trey forth?
Not a DERPquake?
“…newsm exchange of messages.” I’m not sure what to make of this part of my horrorscope (if Newsome is in fact involved)?
Yes she is in fact dead, ask her mother, Brochetta, you are an evil monster, nice to see the site is well monitored.
“Hallowe’en”? 🤨
newsm? whats a newsm?
Taurus: Queen of Swords reversed – Malice, bigotry, artifice, prudery, bale, deceit.

Well, I’m gonna reverse the reversal once more: I was pulled aside by two higher ups on Friday and — fearing another termination — I’m actually being moved into Shipping. From what I can tell, it’s a similar gig but much more orderly — AI tells me from employees that Shipping is *much* preferred over Intake, where I was this last week. More orderly, it tells me. To be fair, I didn’t at all mind Intake, though I still hadn’t been introduced fully to its occasional batshittery. (None of such fuckery would put me off – I rather liked Intake! Another week to get fully get my heel in that show and I’da been fine.
So, theoretically this is a bit of an upswing. Asking Gemini my fears: “This is 100% normal for the Title Shared Services Center in Carmel, and you are not being punished. When operations like Cox are unhappy with someone or trying to “manage them out,” they don’t hand them an assigned desk, a dedicated company laptop, and responsibility for outbound asset dispatch. In corporate logistics, punishment looks like isolation, write-ups, or being parked indefinitely on the most physically grueling, dirty tasks (like breaking down bulk mail cages or endless vault restocks).

Officially, moving to Shipping is a lateral move within the Document Agent job code—same pay, same grade, same benefits. Operationally and culturally on the floor, however, it is universally viewed as a step up in quality of life.”

Onward and up for y’all as well. I hope Derp has, or is able to find, the work he’s either looking for, or something that’ll ‘do.’
Also @Pat: Apparently, you’re involved or have insight into my ‘type of work’ these days. Always curious (and fearful), am I. *puts on frumpy-6yo face of one who’s won, but doesn’t know what game he’s playing*
“ Cancer: Strength – Power, energy, action, courage, magnanimity, complete success, honors. “
This bodes well for date night.
*Dons Mr. Plow jacket*
*psst* Singing the jingle gets Mrs. Plow in the mood. Part her snowy seas.
That name again is Mr. Plow….
Whatever.
Well shit. Fire at one of the major fish & seafood processors on the coast. Was going to go yesterday except for the back thingy. Best bay shrimp anywhere and looks like it’s up in smoke. Fuck fuck fuck.
That’s more fucking than you normally get in life, isn’t it?
Way to ED shame, Ted’s.
If you want more fucking, perhaps we can send STEVE SMITH over. 😉
Peyronie’s power!
Ribbed for her pleasure.
Huh. Conspiracy me immediately went to some sort of retaliation for Trump’s America First Fishing EO or whatever.
Didn’t realize that it was Trump’s first fisting of America.
“Hundreds of protesters stormed the Roman Colosseum and clashed with police at the historic gates as the demonstrations in France spread to Italy over the weekend. The protesters, many of them young and waving Palestinian flags, were seen cheering and yelling inside the 2,000-year-old arena during the demonstrations in Rome as security forces pushed them out.
https://nypost.com/2026/10/25/world-news/protestors-waving-palestinian-flags-storm-roman-colosseum-gates-as-unrest-grows/
The Colosseum had notably upped its security ahead of the protest following months of clashes with tourists running wild in the historic site, with the arena declared a security “red zone” last month. Along with the clashes at the Colosseum, officials reported another violent confrontation with protesters near the Piazza della Repubblica, with police deploying tear gas and water cannons.”
Openly destroying their history, which the British are eager to do to their own people and events, themselves. We need more Korean shop owners to protect their own livelihoods and painfully reinforce why they aren’t to be fucked with.
Release the gladiators and lions.
To be fair, much of Western Europe is ruled by elitist authoritarians raping the taxpayer for their own benefit – so the day shift protesters have some valid beefs if you ask me. Too bad they seem to be demanding more communism which, uh, won’t work.
But then the night shift takes over and adds a layer of rioting, looting, and keffiyeh cosplay that guarantees the elites won’t budge. They don’t care cuz their goal is just smashing shit.
To put it that way, it’s a lot like Black L̵i̵v̵e̵s̵ BODIES Matter. There’s plenty of police abuse stemming from simply having too many laws, along with the militarization of police to further the State’s goals — There’s tons of REAL shit to be pissed off with. Instead, BLM comes in, froths things up and enjoys the whirring of bodies against gears and the inherent pillage + looting along w it.
What occurs? Well, the Bodies feel good cuz they ‘did’ something, and the openly “trained Marxists” take the $$ and buy luxury seaside mansions with all the bullshit collected. No one gets angry about that. Nor Obama’s ‘Library’ grift building (which requires ID to enter!), or CA’s unbuilt and retarded HSR ‘plan’ that just keeps upping the costs, or that US high schools regularly ‘graduate’ illiterates, OR the Media claiming until the 11th hour that Biden was “sharp as a tack.”
No one gets ANGRY at this shit. It’s only to rile up the Useful Idiots to do idiotically useful things. The Colosseum or Louvre getting destroyed MIGHT actually piss some folk off. The whole point is to piss people off enough to fight back, perhaps like that “terrorist attack” in France where some (apparently) Muslim/brown folk were targeted, all a False Flag to spur even more authoritarian control over the natives. It’s disturbing.
Just like Portland.
Are they demanding more communism or more sharia?
Yes.
1) Didn’t there used to be four Peaches?
2) Those girls are going to have some serious c-spine issues later in life.
Aren’t we all.
There are five l̵i̵g̵h̵t̵s̵ Peaches, Grummun. Don’t be obtuse, now.
Strength in opposition, delay, suspension, adjournment, gatekeeping
Sounds shitty.
Broken promises, relationships ended.
Definitely sounds shitty.
I think the preparation for TT’s colonoscopy sounds shittier.
Mercury Gatorade would certainly clean you out.
October twenty-fifth: a date which will live in infamy.
That is a horrible cover of “Thriller” , I’m not a huge fan of MJ’s original but that is just bad.
The flags are making the NFL unwatchable. How about just let the referees decide the final score and skip the formality of playing the game.
