The 3 “Leaders” in NOLA, Bush’s Trojan Taco, the North American Union and RFID Chips…

April 21st, 2008 by NOGoddess

To follow up on Loki’s post about our not so favored visitors these next couple of days, I’d like to delve in a bit further, into that uncomfortable territory of what’s really going on behind the scenes - you know, the things that make the sheeple and even many thinking Americans start shouting “conspiracy theory.” Unfortunately, we’ve been getting duped for a long long time, long enough that there’s finally tangible proof of what’s been worked on for the last 60 years or so. Sadly, I fear the proof will do little good, that the wool has been so firmly pulled over our eyes that it’s simply too late to undo what’s been done. Words I hate to hear myself say, as I’ve always considered myself an activist and done what I’ve could to fight the fights I’ve thought needed fighting, always optimistic that we still stood some kind of chance of fighting the power’s that be. Only, it turns out that the power’s that be are little more than figureheads doing the bidding of some much more secrete entities on whose radar our activist antics don’t even register as even the tiniest of blips.

So what the hell am I talking about?

Check out this video for an overview of the real forces that have been working behind the scenes for so long and lovely new tracking devices coming soon to, well, you:

OK, I can’t figure out how to get a youtube video embedded in this here WordPress blog (despite much google research) so if anyone can clue me in, please do. In the meantime, here’s a straight up link to the video.
Fun stuff, eh?

Web Publishing Workshop

May 25th, 2006 by Loki
Think New Orleans will be hosting a web publishing workshop this coming Thursday.
The Web Publishing Workshop will introduce community organizers to web publishing using WordPress, a software program that makes publishing a web site as simple as writing an email. Loki from Humid City, Editor B. from B.Rox and Alan Gutierrez of ThinkNOLA are the currently confirmed instructors as of May 23rd, 2006.
The Web Publishing Workshop will be held at 1832 Felicity St, New Orleans, LA which is between St Charles Ave and Oretha Castle Hailey. The workshop will be held at 6:00 pm on Thursday, May 25th, 2006.
I want to thank Paul Baricos from the New Orleans Housing Resource Center for providing us with the facilities to host the web publishing workshop.

Humid City Companion Sites Launch!

May 18th, 2006 by Loki

I would like to announce the launch of two companion or annex sites as part of the Humid City project:

  • Humid City on MySpace - Networked heavily into the New Orleans art and music scenes, this space will probably be the center of our work with helping revive the scene here. Those of you who remember the Silver Machine will feel right at home there, those who do not should check it out!
  • Humid City on LiveJournal -  Bloggers write to people, LiveJournal people intereact and discuss things. This community will try to bridge the gap and provide a “sitting around the coffeeshop/bar,” atmosphere for conversations relevant to New Orleanians both here in the Forbidden Zone and beyond.

It is my hope to use the combination of these three platforms to create unity and a free flow of pertinent information while enhancing our sense of community.

Come by and see us. Get involved. New Orleans is important.
