Couldn't think of anything to make regarding the next psychological warfare bit at Putin's expense, so I just thought I'd post a bunch of meme gifs that describe what a bastard he is:

Even South Park said it, so this was inevitable Everything was at least stable with this world, until the conflict was started by Dickless here:

Ever notice how he keeps getting paler and paler with each address. Sooner or later he's gonna look like this:

Meanwhile while he's out swinging his lack of epididymis. His wife is doing this with the soldiers behind his back for all the times he beat and cheated her:

He's no saint in his own home either. Anytime Ukraine has fought back, he takes it out on the people and his soldiers. Both of which have this to say:

Of course the only person that has his back now is this guy:

But fuck him, he hasn't done anything remotely entertaining since SNL and his stint as the president was a terrible encore.

Personally though after what I seen him do last night, I think Will Smith needs to take a trip to Russia and do this to Putin:

Chris Rock took it well, but I think Putin would flip out.

Speaking of which how is he doing:

S.T. Musician: My god. What have I done. I think I went too far. I mean, the man is crying for fuck sake, what did he do to deserve that?

Light Harmony: Men, women and children are currently being slaughtered under his orders. The import cut off caused the rise in gas prices and to top it off, he threatened to declare war on the western hemisphere.

S.T. Musician: Oh that's right. Fuck him. Keep crying you little Stalin wannabe, Hitler being, Family Murdering, Country Raping, Lack of humanity let alone functional genitals, you SON OF A BITCH!!!!

Anywho, I hope these memes get a good laugh and I really hope it ends up being one step closer to driving him completely insane.

Couldn't think of another song idea yet, but while I was thinking I decided to write this piece. This would have been considered an open question, but in the past few days, this has kinda been bugging me both in a good and bad way.

In this case this applies to the concept of miracles.

Whether one believes in them or not, a lot of things in life seem to revolve around that concept.

You ever had a moment in your life where your day just isn't going well, then suddenly, even if it's the most minor something good happens in your life that makes it all worth it? It could be something as simple as say finding $20 in the middle of a random street or someone you haven't seen for a while decides to come visit you. Or even something big like say getting a bonus at work even though you don't know what you did to deserve it. The fact remains, that these good events happen, right the fuck out of nowhere and are so few in between. Part of why I've been so depressed over the years was because these happen rarely. I honestly wish there was at least a week or a month where good things...well just happen.

Religious people consider them signs of their respective deity.

Those who have no belief in such concepts, chalk them down at worst as coincidences and at best some kind of formula in Quantum physics they can't figure out yet.

I myself believe in a little of both, that there may be a scientific formula for good luck, while at the same time believe there is something magical about it too.

The problem though and I'm sure I'm not the only one, is that I don't see the signs until after it happens.

Everyone has their way of seeing the signs. Some call on the spirits of their family and/or their respective deities. Others do it the mathematical and numerology way, by finding numbers, signs and equations that lead to a good outcome. In my case I take certain things as a sign that my lost ones are trying to tell me something. Just recently 3 events in my personal life became an example of those signs. These were based on a series of events, in which at the time I never thought would have a positive outcome. Literally the odds were stacked against my favour in that one. Then something happens, something I don't expect and it's a welcome surprise and things got better a little for it.

With this, I can honestly say, I believe that miracles are real.

What's your opinion on this?

Ladies, Gentleman, That Techicolor Rainbow in between. May I have your attention please!?

It has come to my attention that recently Poland seeks to expel 45 known Russian Intelligence agents in their country, who have posed as diplomats and are using diplomatic immunity to prevent their expulsion.  Naturally the solution would be to call their home country and have them revoked, but since Putin himself is the one that sent them, it's easier said than done. 

When I saw this on CP24 something struck me. 

Back in WWII, much of why the Cold War Started was because Russia under Stalin at the time refused to let go of the areas that were freed of the Nazis. Which in turn became the extension of The Soviet Union. 

Here are the list of countries that were part of it:

Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Estonia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan.

Luckily Poland wasn't one of them, but it was called by both sides a Sattelite, being that close to the union, but not part of it. Looking at it from Google Maps I saw this:

Poland is literally a 15 hour drive to the Ukraine. Not only that but it's surrounded by many countries formerly of the Soviet Union. If the Sattelite was able to find 45 Russian Intelligence agents in Poland. All of them with credentials that literally keep them from getting kicked out or going to jail, then who knows how many are in the surrounding countries. All of them surrounding the Ukraine. That's how they've been getting ahead in the war. They've been watching at it from all angles. All this time, they've been watching. The intelligence agents spying on one side and telling the army on the otherside where and when to strike. It doesn't even require the internet for it. Just a simple telescope and radio.

I urge each and every citizen of Poland, as well as the surrounding countries to contact your respective governments and contact the UN. The latter of which can be reached here: https://www.un.org/en/contact-us-0

This stops now.

Special thanks to @Sharky321 for being the 150th.

If this were Pokemon I'd be a Mew away from being the Kanto Master.

I know not everyone here, on the net or god forbid the real world outside, is religious, hell I'm Pagan/Wiccan and this baffled me at first. However I can't deny it any longer. Over the years I've spat in the face of anyone who would ever mention this, so what I am about to say may come across as hypocritical. However it needs to be said.

There have been many many times since before even my own lifetime, that people have talked about The End of The World in various ways. Y2K and the Mayan Calendar way being the most prominent.

However even when people were in a gross panic about it, I always laughed it off, because I've been through many of these days and so far aside from some changes to what was considered the Status Quo as well as some environmental damage, nothing really came to an abrupt end.

However ever since the 2020s first started, we've encountered problems that put us on the brink. However, what if these problems, while bad were the fucking signs?

1. You have the Covid-19 Pandemic. Which is Pestilence.
2. The impact caused by Covid-19 and The Ukraine-Russian Conflict has caused inflation to skyrocket all over the world. Costing everyone around it more money just to eat let alone, fucking live. So famine.
3. The Ukraine-Russia Conflict, causing everyone on all sides to be up in arms and prepare for at best Cold War 2 and at worst World War III. So War.
4. And everyone is dying from it as the result of the 3 above. So Death.

For those that don't know what I'm talking about. I'm referring to the Four Horseman of the Apocolypse. Each Horseman representing an aspect of the world that may cripple or kill it one day, but if all 4 are at play, then needless to say as a whole, the world is fucked. That's right. I wholeheartedly believe that this may be the End of The World as we know it.

Now before some of you panic and others start going at me claiming "You're crazy." hear me out on this. Despite the depressing nature of what I just said, there is actually a bit of optimism too. Many stories, from the Bible to the Torah, have often had their own interpretation of the End of The World. I even once wanted to make it a hobby to collect religious texts from all religions to see what would differ from one and other and what would be the same. Including but not limited to their interpretations of it. However I couldn't do so, because the text itself is expensive as Hell. I'm not kidding. The entire Roman Ritual Trilogy is over $100. And that's just covering a small fraction of Catholicism.

However, the main realization is this. The one thing they all have in common, is that they only tell how they think the world will end. Not once saying what happens after. Now I know what you're thinking. "No shit, because it's over after. There's nothing left." Hahaha, fuck you. Notice what they said specifically. The end of The World. As in our world as in Planet Earth. They never said the universe. Granted so far it's because we seem to be the only life out there that can walk and talk. However, I think there's more than that. I remember once talking to a Jehova's Witness, years back and he once told me that the End of The World doesn't necessarily mean, that everyone dies or gets raptured or anything like that. But rather the end of modern civilization as we know it. throughout the past Millenium, regardless of how much we advanced technologically, no matter how many times we changed what was considered the status quo at the time and god forbid what no matter what we do to reduce our carbon footprint, we never really changed as a civilization at all. We still believe that cash is the way to stay alive, we still have an unequal society due to both bigotry and certain slacktivists who prefer to keep the fight going because should they win, they'd have no purpose in life anymore and to top it off, we still strive to one-up each other. No matter how much people say the world has changed, that times have changed and that we are better off than what we were before, I don't believe it, because as a wise anti-hero once said "The More Things Change, The More They Stay The Same."

What if what we thought the End of The World is gonna be, is merely just a huge change that we're not all ready for?

A change that will cost a lot of pain, suffering and most importantly lives, but in the end regardless of how bad it is now, things are gonna get better afterwards for the world and the human race as a whole. Maybe this is God or Nature or The Planet telling us "You guys have been pushing me around in an attempt to push each other around and I'm sick of it. Either stop everything your doing and get your act together, or I'll fucking kill you right now." I'm not kidding. Because throughout the past 2 years, natural disasters have begun to be more frequent. Floods, Tornadoes, Earthquakes, Forest Fires. If there was any sort of proof that the planet is not only sentient, but pissed off at us right now, this is it.

But hey, I could be wrong. Even if I'm right though, this message will most likely be ignored anyway, because despite us claiming to want change or want to change, we never did, because we thought it would strip us of our individual rights as human beings. That's a bunch of bullshit. The fact of the matter is the rich are used to being on top that the money that could have helped the rest of the world is just being spent on another section of their city sized mansions. The poor are so used to people giving them hand-outs that any leg up would always be rejected under the excuse of pride. They'd rather die poor, than live without a voice anymore. As for everyone in the middle, we are so used to being convinced that if we didn't keep working we'd either die poor or not get as big as the rich people.

Point being is that the reason why this world is ending is because of us. WE ARE THE ONE'S RUINING IT!!! We let the virus spread. We let Putin push Ukraine around until it became unbearable to watch. We waste our time trying to pass the problem on to someone else, but when all the passovers happen, there is no one else but you.

We have the power to destroy this world, so naturally we have the power to save it. SO SAVE IT!!! Change right now or else the end of the world really will be the end of the fucking world.

Glockenvaltz

Thought I'd celebrate this right for once since I practically skimped on my 100th audio. I felt the 200th would be the time to do something really meaningful. But rather than do something new, I decided to go back to my past and present the first ever CIEIRMusic. The first song, the first logo, the first album cover art. This was the thing that started CIEIRMusic as you see it today. Even my style hasn't changed over the years. Making wordless stories with music.

This was made 4 years ago last January. It started out as a tribute to Classical Music, but evolved into a wordless story. In this case, it takes place in a world where Instruments are sentient beings, where the Piano is God of All and everyone is it's subjects. One specific couple, a pair of Glockenspiels have fallen completely in love with each other and dance the night away in the Piano's natural beat. However their romance is under the eyes of an Envious Violin, who's jealous of the Piano's favour over them. So it seeks to reclaim that praise by offing the competition. However as more people find out about the nefarious deed, Violin will do anything to keep his dirty secret safe. To the point where the piano itself has to step in and deal with the murderer itself.

Part of why I didn't upload this, was because it was on an older computer of mine, which has since been fried beyond repair. I didn't think there were any copies elsewhere save for my tablet. Also broken. However by some miracle, it ended up on my computer here. So I figure why waste an opportunity. You can see the first song here:

The song and album that comes with it, also spawned a sequel album called Glockenvaltz 2: Organ Hell.

Glockenvaltz 2: Organ Hell

Which I recommend you also listen to.

I await judgment of this good and bad, mainly because I want to see how my oldest works compares to what I have shown you here so far.

In the spirit of the holiday, S.T. Musician and Light Harmony went hunting for Leprechauns. When they caught one, they asked for his Pot of Gold. He said no. So they took him out...for a pint of Green Beer for refusing politely.

It's been days since S.T. and Light Harmony were contacted by Divide.

S.T.: Bad news is we can only do so much over there, if not for those two, we could have done much more.

Light: Well I don't think our plans have failed, I think we just picked the wrong target is all.

Harmony: Ukraine will make it, we just gotta have faith the rest of the world is there to help them out. Whether it's teaching them how to fight back or helping fleeing people find a safe place to live.

Light: Harmony's right. Our main focus should be who they can't go up against and that's Dark fucking Divide. Psych Warfare is the way to go, they are extremely vain and even the slightest insult would set them off.

S.T.: Hmmm. It's a long shot but I have an idea.

S.T. Takes out a USB drive it has their insignia on it.

S.T.: I stole it off Dark during our drinking game. I looked it over and it's a song they were gonna publish. They were gonna try to beat us at our own game by creating their own "Lesson work." Only while we teach them stuff they'll need to know, this one teaches people how to be the worst of themselves. If we can publish it before they can, we will have copyrighted their name. To the listening world, this is part of some lore, but to them, we stole their shit and they're gonna want it back.

Light: Amazing. So you're basically gonna Stetson Kennedy them.

S.T.: Exactly.

Harmony: As much as I hate them, I am quite curious how they are. Do you think we could listen.

S.T.: This is a rough copy so they haven't put anything in it that would hypnotize the listener. It shouldn't hurt.

One Listen Later:

Light: That was horrifying.

Harmony: Anyone that would heed their words would have to be a special kind of psychopath.

S.T.: We fought killers, thieves, rapists and terrorists yet this scares me more.

Harmony: WHAT THE FUCK DID SHE JUST CALL ME!?

S.T.: Easy Harmony, she's just deluded.

Light: Leave her be, S.T. I got this. Harmony? Go to the gym and take it out on the heavy bag.

Harmony: Can I put a picture of her face on it?

Light: Yes.

Harmony: Ok.

Harmony leaves, sounds of heavy punches and screaming can be heard.

Harmony: FUCKING BITCH!!! CALL ME A SLUT!!!? SHE'S THE ONE THAT TRIED TO JUMP HIM!!!

Harmony comes back, her hair all frizzled.

Harmony: I feel much better now.

Light: Believe me, if you didn't do that I would have.

S.T.: Remind me not to piss you off.

Harmony: Oh you could never do that S.T.

Light: Harmony!!

Harmony: I know, I know. I'm working on it. So we post this thing and any time they do a song they'd have to pay us.

S.T.: Yep, although they established themselves with that name, they never patented it. Even orginizations like The Hell's Angels did the smart thing and copyrighted their name.

Light: I see. Well let's do it. I just wish I could see the looks on their faces.

A few Hours Later, in the Office of Vladimir Putin.

Divide: I'm telling you, as long as people post shit on the internet, you're always gonna have the drop on them.

Her phone rings.

Divide: CIEIRMusic has posted a new song on Newgrounds.

Dark: So what else is new.....wait a minute. That's our song. HOW THE FUCK DID HE GET THAT!!!

Divide: I told you to wear something without pockets, he's great at pick pocketing.

Dark: I'LL FUCKING KILL HIM!!!!!

Divide: Goddammit. Mr. President, I have to go put him on a leash, we may be out of Russia for a while.

Putin: Where do you think you're going? I can't do this without you, I can't make decisions on my own. I'm the fucking president.

Divide: I'm sorry, did you just demand we stay? What part of our contract states we work for you, that we take orders from you. We go where we want to go, cause chaos where we want to cause chaos, you are a fucking tool to us. We only help you because we want those diseases wiped off the Earth. You had no qualms blowing the roof off an apartment building, yet letting us leave is where you draw the line? Mr. President, let's make things clear. We are the embodiment of all that is wrong in the world. Our ancestors before us were interbred with the fucking Devil himself. Our goal is ltierally to take this planet, kill as much as we can and let the rest run amok in anarchy and chaos. The likes of which you never seen. Why? Because that's the way the world is supposed to work. We are supposed to consume, annihilate and destroy everything until there is nothing left. Rather than the wrong way, such as building better and brighter futures for future generations. And there is nothing or no one that can stop us. None of the nukes in your arsenal can scratch us let alone injure or kill you. Your goals are as small as your non-existent dick. If we wanted to, we could kill you and rape your corpse in front of St. Petersburg for your staff and civilians to see. So which will it be, you try to make us stay or you let us deal with this major problem compared to you and we can get back into business quicker.

Putin: You people are fucking insane.

Dark: Look who's talking. You invaded a country smaller than you and you insist they're the bad guys. We're pure evil, but we're not as insanely stupid as you. We at least know what we're doing. You're doing this out of isolution induced psychosis and some nostalgia for a blue balled war. So you sit down, shut up in both languages and let us do what we're good at.

Divide: Let's go Dark, I think we made him piss himself.

Putin: And here I thought hiring them would make things go faster.

Back at CIEIRMusic.

S.T.: Ok and it's published. Harmony, close the religious centre for the night, I get the feeling they're gonna be coming here right away.

The Island of The Severed Hand

Seems the number 7 has entered my life on this one. For starters the painting this album is based off is my 7th Canvas painting. There's a 7 on two parts of the top of my profile, there are 7 songs in this album, I get featured in the Tank Tribune once again, just as I'm making the 7th song and to top it off, St. Patrick's Day, is on the 17th. Just 3 days away from when this article was written.

Like usual this comes with a free digital copy of the painting. Maybe 7 is a lucky number after all.

As most of you know I managed to get on the Tank Tribune before:

https://thetanktribune.newgrounds.com/news/post/1202116

Last August I was featured here specifically:

The Phonograph section. Not only did I feel honoured then I still feel honoured now that at the time this song was good enough to be featured there:

I didn't think I'd be featured on there more than once. That is until this arrived at my notification:

https://thetanktribune.newgrounds.com/news/post/1256032

I initially thought I was on the Phonograph again, but I found myself on something better:

I couldn't believe my eyes at first, but here I am. For my recent album being available on Bandcamp no less.

First off I'd like to thank @TheTankTribune, for featuring me on here.

I'd also like to thank @The-Great-One for not only reviewing my previous work, but writing such an engaging post.

I'd like to give a big shout out those that made it on the Phonograph. You've earned it.

Finally I'd like to thank my fans, in all sincerity I wouldn't have gone this far without you.

In the spirit of this thing I decided to make a corkboard with these two articles.:

Hopefully I may go for the hat trick.
