The Joy Formidable — Into the Blue (Enci)

Into The Blue by The Joy Formidable

The Joy Formidable make a super clear, super clean version of indie rock where everything gleams and reverberates. The sound benefits equally from Ritzy Bryan’s pop exuberant vocal delivery and her gnarly, riff-centric guitar; the two things ought to be at odds, but somehow aren’t. Arena-friendly choruses stream out of the scratchy, howling string-work; the songs pound hard with big muscular bass lines (that’s co-founder Rhydian Dafydd) and reverb-accentuated drums (Matt Thomas). It’s a bit too glossy for me, but not objectionable. The brute force of “Chimes,” for instance, is polished like a mirror, but remains authentically powerful.

Into the Blue is the Welsh duo’s fifth full-length album, and like most of the music we’re listening to these days, it has a COVID backstory. Early in 2020, Bryant and Dafydd made what they thought would be a quick trip to Bryant’s home in Utah, planning to pick up some gear and fly back to record in Wales. But when the pandemic hit, they were stuck in the desert. Fortunately, though, they were together and had access to instruments and recording equipment, so they began laying down tracks anyway. The songs reflect this difficult period; though themes of blockage and confusion thread through this album, there is also a palpable sense of getting on with it, of forging ahead regardless, of carefully conserving one’s optimism amid recurring challenges. In the spirited “Interval,” for instance, Bryant sings, “don’t think about it, it’s a crossroads, for me, just look around it, it’s an interval, before I leave.” But she’s not doing the song in a mope-y, introspective way; the drums thunder, the guitar screams, the melody explodes with crisp, confident energy.

Perhaps the most obvious way that this album reflects the COVID lockdown, however, is in its weirder, more idiosyncratic second half, which is, incidentally, the best part of the record. Bryan cuts her clarion voice to a whisper in moody, drum-crashing, “Gotta Feed My Dog,” putting a scrim of mystery what has been, to this point, crowd-pleasing anthemry. (The song also nods to the 19 dogs Bryant has fostered over the lockdown period; she’s not kidding about having pups to feed.) It is followed by the languid, Spanish-guitar flourishing, “Somewhere,” where Dafydd sings in a surprising vulnerable, lyrical way, and then, the balls-out synth-blues-boogie of “Bring It to the Front.” The back end of Into the Blue is all over the map, in other words, and that’s a good thing.

Day 35 (21 Days on Testosterone [11/11/19])

I had a couple of audio files I recorded, but I have no idea where they went... So tomorrow I’ll post something. I won’t be doing anymore teaching appointments, today went well, compared to 10/04/19. Last Monday when I went a head with an injection some of the medication leaked out of my leg when I pulled out the needle. I utilized the Z-track method that’s explained bellow and injected into a nice hunk of my leg. The nurse I spoke to today was just as puzzled, and the only thing I could think of was that the angle might have been off by a hair. I’m doing it right, so I have no idea what happened. I do know this can occur when I get a vaccine sometimes. Anyway, there are a lot of steps, but it’s second nature once you’re in the swing of it. This is more cost effective than the gel or the foam, and some states will pay for this (or more of it) if you’re on Medicaid. They won’t cover the needles which is weird, because I honestly don’t know how they expect anyone to inject medication without a method of delivery. They do this to diabetics and other folks too, so it’s not just the trans community.

****THIS IS A JUST GUIDE TO SOMEONE AN IDEA OF HOW THE PROCESS WORKS. I AM NOT A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL, NOR AM I A TEACHER.****

Z-Track IM (Intramuscular) Injection:

This method is to create an internal band aid of sorts, while helping prevent medication from leaking out. DO NOT do this on your rear! This should be done on your leg.

(1) First things first, wipe down the surface you’re going to lay out your supplies with. I use a disinfectant wipe, once that’s dry, I then layout a clean paper towel.

(2) I wash my hands and use a clean paper towel to shut off the water and open the cupboard where my stuff is kept. You want to minimize your contact with germy surfaces!

(3) Then I gather up my supplies! That includes two alcohol wipes, one gauze pad, a band aid, one syringe, two needles, and my medication.

(4) I locate my vastus lateralis next. Which translates to a hand width beneath your groin, a hand width above your knee; while the side borders are the mid anterior thigh to the mid lateral thigh. Beneath this step is a photo of the muscle highlighted in red.

(5) You’re going to crack open one alcohol swab and wipe down a patch about the size of a half dollar. There’s enough alcohol in a wipe to do it, so you might as well have a bigger target to aim for.

(6) You’re going to open both of your needles, if there’s no packaging don’t sweat it. Pull back the guard of one, DO NOT REMOVE THE CAP JUST YET. Screw on your needle, but don’t do it too tightly, you’ll have to unscrew it after. This is because the needle will be blunted. This is part of what makes an injection painful, not a sharp needle. Think of it as cutting yourself with a knife that’s wicked sharp, you don’t realize you’ve done it until you start bleeding.

(7) Remove the vial’s cap, and wipe down the top of your bottle and allow to air dry. This is another sterility procedure that’s essential to keeping you well.

(8) You’re going to draw up a little air with the cap still on. You’ll do this once, to help break the vacuum inside the vial. Please not if you put in too little air, you will find it hard to draw up your medicine. If you push in too much air, the medicine may be forced out of either the syringe or the vial (I’ve seen both happen). The amount of air should be the equivalent to the amount of medication you will draw up. Now you can remove the cap with a quick pull. Puncture the top and inject the air into the vial. Flip the bottle upside down and make sure you have the needle in the solution at this time. You may have to tilt the needle so you can draw up your medication. For me at this time it’s .15, BUT I do .16. This extra bit is to wet the needle (pushing out a little fluid to dampen the tip), which is the second cause of injection pain.

(9) Pull that sucker out and unscrew the top. You’ll need to swap it out for the unused needle, since the one you just used is now blunted. Secure the guard with a snap and dispose of in your sharps container. Once you’ve screw pull back the guard of the new one and remove the cap.

(10) With your thumb and forefinger stretch the area around where you swabbed. Your leg needs to be straight as you sit, it should make a 90° angle with your knee bending naturally. Your going to go straight in at a 90° with your needle. I recommend taking in a breath and inserting while you breathe out. The needle needs to be all the way in before you push on the plunger.

(11) Push on the plunger and have your gauze within reach. You’re going to inject for 3-5 second, it seems like a long time, but trust me this junk is thick and needs time to go in. After that count to ten (slowly). You’re ready to simultaneously pull out the needle and let go of the site your thumb and fore finger are stretching. Quickly press the gauze onto the injection site.

(12) Remove the gauze and apply your band aid. You can massage the site to alleviate pain and work in the medication. The mild soreness dissipates after six hours for me.

*One thing I notice about this, is if I inject in the late afternoon I’m wired in the evening. If this happens to you, I would consider aiming for morning injections...it really sucks not being able to go to sleep.

MAKIN IT REALLY SIMPLE FOR YOU!

MAKING IT VERY SIMPLE FOR YOU!

HISTORY AND THE BIBLE, ONE AND THE SAME!

WHILE SOME OF US LOOK FOR A PARTY, AND UNWITTINGLY WORSHIP PAGAN GODS,

DO WE TAKE TIME TO RESEARCH AND READ ANY HISTORY AT ALL?

Talk no more so exceeding proudly; let not arrogancy come out of your mouth: for the Lord is a God of knowledge, and by him actions are weighed. The Lord killeth, and maketh alive: he bringeth down to the grave, and bringeth up. The adversaries of the Lord shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven shall he thunder upon them: the Lord shall judge the ends of the earth; and he shall give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.

https://bible.com/bible/1/1sa.2.3-10.KJV

⏰ WAKE UP!

IDENTIFYING GOD'S PRIESTHOOD NATION!

HOW DID ESAU, THE (ASSUMED JEW) GET INTO THE LAND OF THE ISRAELITES?

WHEN JERUSALEM WAS DESTROYED BY THE ROMANS IN 70AD, ESAU WAS THERE ALREADY AND ASSISTED THE ROMAN GENTILES TO DESTROY THE PRIEST NATION OF GOD AND THE LAND!

KING HEROD WAS AN EDOMITE, IDUMEAN, "ESAU"! PLACED OVER THE HEBREWS BY THE ROMANS!

THIS IS HOW ESAU (THE ASSUMED JEWS), FIRST BEGAN TO OCCUPY THE LAND OF THE ISRAELITES! "PRIEST" OF GOD!

AFTER ISRAEL'S DESTRUCTION IN 70AD, ESAU COMPLETLY MOVED THEIR PEOPLE INTO THE LAND!

ESAU, EDOMITES, BOZRA, TMEN, MT SEIR, ALL THE NAMES OF THE SAME NATION OF PEOPLE!

ESAU AND IDENTITY THEFT!

BUT DON'T WORRY, THE LORD WILL SETTLE IT ALL IN A LITTLE WHILE NOW!

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1l1wnE2CNYrNQ41bH4N8hK7nR6VX9Kl4dgDDaEEoqBww/edit?usp=drivesdk

WHO OR WHAT IS AN HEBREW ISRAELITE?

JESHURUN'S CAPTIVES (The Godhead Expansion!)

WE ALL PAY FOR IGNORANCE!

READ! ESAU PLAYS A HUGE PART IN ENDTIME PROPHECY!

THIS IS WHERE WE CURRENTLY ARE!

THE MAN OF SIN, THE FUTURE TEMPLE OF MAN AND THE DAILY SACRIFICE REINSTATED!

http://thegodheadexpansion.blogspot.com/2019/04/the-man-of-sin-future-temple-of-man-and.html

Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I WILL REPAY, SAITH THE LORD. Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

Romans 12:19‭-‬21 KJV

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE REPAYMENT!

Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Son of man, set thy face against mount Seir, and prophesy against it, And say unto it, Thus saith the Lord God ; Behold, O mount Seir, I am against thee, and I will stretch out mine hand against thee, and I will make thee most desolate. I will lay thy cities waste, and thou shalt be desolate, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord . Because thou hast had a perpetual hatred, and hast shed the blood of the children of Israel by the force of the sword in the time of their calamity, in the time that their iniquity had an end: Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord God , I will prepare thee unto blood, and blood shall pursue thee: sith thou hast not hated blood, even blood shall pursue thee. Thus will I make mount Seir most desolate, and cut off from it him that passeth out and him that returneth. And I will fill his mountains with his slain men: in thy hills, and in thy valleys, and in all thy rivers, shall they fall that are slain with the sword. I will make thee perpetual desolations, and thy cities shall not return: and ye shall know that I am the Lord . Because thou hast said, These two nations and these two countries shall be mine, and we will possess it; whereas the Lord was there: Therefore, as I live, saith the Lord God , I will even do according to thine anger, and according to thine envy which thou hast used out of thy hatred against them; and I will make myself known among them, when I have judged thee. And thou shalt know that I am the Lord , and that I have heard all thy blasphemies which thou hast spoken against the mountains of Israel, saying, They are laid desolate, they are given us to consume. Thus with your mouth ye have boasted against me, and have multiplied your words against me: I have heard them. Thus saith the Lord God ; When the whole earth rejoiceth, I will make thee desolate. As thou didst rejoice at the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was desolate, so will I do unto thee: thou shalt be desolate, O mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it: and they shall know that I am the Lord .

Ezekiel 35:1‭-‬15 KJV

The vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord God concerning Edom; We have heard a rumour from the Lord , and an ambassador is sent among the heathen, Arise ye, and let us rise up against her in battle. Behold, I have made thee small among the heathen: thou art greatly despised. The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground? Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the Lord . If thieves came to thee, if robbers by night, (how art thou cut off!) would they not have stolen till they had enough? if the grapegatherers came to thee, would they not leave some grapes? How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his hidden things sought up! All the men of thy confederacy have brought thee even to the border: the men that were at peace with thee have deceived thee, and prevailed against thee; they that eat thy bread have laid a wound under thee: there is none understanding in him. Shall I not in that day, saith the Lord , even destroy the wise men out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau? And thy mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed, to the end that every one of the mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter. For thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever. In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them. But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress. Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yea, thou shouldest not have looked on their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor have laid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity; Neither shouldest thou have stood in the crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape; neither shouldest thou have delivered up those of his that did remain in the day of distress. For the day of the Lord is near upon all the heathen: as thou hast done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine own head. For as ye have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the heathen drink continually, yea, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been. But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions. And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the Lord hath spoken it. And they of the south shall possess the mount of Esau; and they of the plain the Philistines: and they shall possess the fields of Ephraim, and the fields of Samaria: and Benjamin shall possess Gilead. And the captivity of this host of the children of Israel shall possess that of the Canaanites, even unto Zarephath; and the captivity of Jerusalem, which is in Sepharad, shall possess the cities of the south.

And saviours shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the Lord's .

SO WHO WILL BE IN JERUSALEM (ZION) WHEN THE LORD RETURNS? THE SAME PEOPLE WHO ARE ABOUT TO REINSTITUTE THE DAILY ANIMAL SACRIFICE!

ESAU!

'If YOU'RE BLACK IN ISRAEL, YOU'RE SCARED TO WALK DOWN THE STREET'

(ETHIOPIAN JEWS ARE DANTES, TRIBE OF DAN, ISRAELITES!)

THE DESCENDANTS OF JACOB'S FRATERNAL TWIN ESAU STOLE THE LAND FROM THE DESCENDANTS OF JACOB (ISRAEL).

"Our race is the Master Race. we are divine gods on this planet. We are as different from the inferior races as they are from insects.... Other races are beasts and animals, cattle at best. Our destiny is to rule over the inferior races. The masses will lick our feet and serve us as our slaves"

-- Menachem Begin

https://www.inspiringquotes.us/quotes/sLuH_RA4gxNVm

THEN TURNED AROUND AND CALLED THE ISRAELITES, (THE PRIEST OF GOD) MONKEYS?

BROTHERS AND SISTERS, HEBREW ISRAELITES ARE NOT MONKEYS! WE ARE THE DESIGNATED PRIESTS OF THE MOST HIGH GOD, TO ALL THE SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF ADAM! YEA, ESAU TOO!

A "PRIEST" WHO HAS PUBLICALLY CALLED AN ENTIRE NATION OF PEOPLE (DOGS)!

ESAU'S "CHIEF" IMPOSTOR!⤵️
