The Sapio Files: String of THOT # 3
This is really going to be just a fun stream of THOT, so I hope that you are ready for the roller coaster. We are 60 days away from the inauguration of our 47th President of the United States. We are 34 days away from Christmas. We are 7 days away from Thanksgiving, and I’m going to tell you the real story about America. Because this bullshit that I read every day has got me tired and pissed off.
The story of America didn’t start in America. It started in Mesopotamia with a family that did two things well: they fucked and they fought. I wish there was a nicer way to say it, but as a 13th generation American I can prove that the capitalist system has a set algorithm that when hacked will give you the keys to kingdoms and the keys to nuclear launch codes, but it is so inefficient and will cost you your soul.
Welcome to the Space/Military Intelligence Learning Experience (S/MILE)
IMMERSIVE LEARNING AND CAPTURE-the-FLAG EVENTS
We will dive into a world of quantum intelligence, ethical social engineering, and ethically hacking the U.S. Government by looking through the Library of well known, not-so well known, and obscure stories of the queer and macabre. We will look at the world of espionage, back handed deals, and the trafficking of souls from the “underworld.”
Teaches critical thinking, information operations, and entrepreneurial skills, along with, media arts, digital literacy, and emotional intelligence
Follows the history of communications technology through the eyes of a family that has travelled the universe using ethical social engineering to make friends, learn new skills, and care for each community that has welcomed them
Potential to partner with vulnerable communities to rebuild and secure their critical infrastructure
Provides access to quality learning and upskilling courses, industry best practices, and historical after actions
Don’t forget to S/MILE… it makes them nervous!!!
Adam and Eve, Party of 4?
So Adam and Eve are now kicked out of paradise where they could frolic naked with the animals, and now they have to live with other people and wear clothes. I get it… I’m ADHD, and texture is everything. They had two kids: Cain and Able. We all know the story, but have you ever really thought about the amount of anger that wells up in order to take another’s life?
I was trained how to effective take another’s life, and yet I have maintained a life that protects life at all costs. The problem is that in most cases the real killers are never caught. You see the struggle over jealousy was the second sin, and the family was further broken.
Families are messy. They drain every ounce of energy, but at the same time bring me so much joy. The problem is that families do not set boundaries very well and often are the ones who test our patience the most. There is a reason when an individual goes missing, they start by looking at the family. At the same time, how many of you feel like if you went missing your family probably wouldn’t even notice?
That’s right. We’re taking this to the middle child syndrome. I’m kinda joking, but also kinda not. We did not get along when we were kids, you try to fake it as you get older, but at the same time how long do you sip poison? Then the other voice begins.
You know, “You are to love your brother as you love yourself,” but when you hate yourself it becomes easier to hate your brother. It’s because of how it makes you feel: do you want to fuck him or fight him or maybe just to be him. To have others look at you for authority and guidance and because you are the beauty they want.
Families make you do things you never thought you would do, but then again who do you consider your family? And what kind of acting does your family do? Do you love to play house and make belief you have the perfect family? Meanwhile your thoughts turn grey and red and the fantasy is born. You see your hands touch mine and we brace for a kiss. “but this is not real,” you scream.
That’s when the shame and guilt start. What is good and bad? Am I good or bad? But if they both ate the fruit. They could see good and bad, so we can see good and bad, even when a life is taken we will know what is good and bad because when the rubber meets the road the feeling that envelopes your body into action has a good or bad feeling and you can reason with it or can go with it. You ride the wave, the rush that washes over your body and then just sit in perfect clarity.
When it is bad… you fight… and you fight until you can no longer speak.
What is next?
When Cain was sent away, he was marked. It was a curse on anyone who tried to harm Cain. He had to live a life with the knowledge that he killed his brother. Personally, I believe the “Mark of Cain” was what became the stories of the “Witch’s Mark,” but at the same time - God did say that hell would raise on anyone who brought harm to those with the Mark.
Tomorrow I will be venturing to the Embassy of South Africa to discuss community building and friendship, and I couldn’t be happier connecting with their Socio-Economic Director. The Rainbow Nation has my heart. It is absolutely beautiful and I cannot wait to be able to go back.
How long do you think it’ll take for my experiment to take effect? How many meetings will it take to start seeing change?
What am I looking forward to?
Busy next few days. In DC to meet with South Africa then heading to the mayor’s office and see about We Act Radio’s Community Anchor status. Working on plans for World Pride Hacker Summer Camp & Runway Show. The fundraiser has started, please consider donating!!! Magic works slowly - Cash pays the bills.

A Home for the Holidays - Community Support
According the 2019 Point-in-Time (PIT) Count of Persons Experiencing Homelessness in the District of Columbia by The Community Partnership For The Prevention of Homelessness released in May 2019, there were 6,521 homeless people on the streets of DC the night of that report, including 608 persons who were unsheltered, 4,679 in emergency shelters, and 1,234 in a transitional housing programs.
Following an approach used in Finland, the Hive Social Garden is raising funding for a Housing First program in Washington, DC, providing housing immediately and without preconditions to residents in need. The underlying principle of Housing First is that having a stable and secure home is a fundamental human right and a critical foundation for tackling other issues contributing to homelessness, such as mental health issues or substance abuse.
According to the National Alliance to End Homelessness, a chronically homeless person costs the taxpayer an average of $35,578 per year. Chronic homelessness refers to people who have chronic and complex health conditions including mental illnesses, substance use disorders, and medical conditions who experience long-term homelessness— and can be found sleeping on the street or in shelters. However, costs on average can be reduced by 49.5% when these individuals are placed in supportive housing. Supportive housing costs on average $12,800.
Our first milestone for this project is $50,000 by Christmas to provide supportive housing for four individuals.
