“The Problem” by Lem Billings

(August 11th, 2024 – Evening)

Why can’t she access her posts from tonight? Why are they disappearing? See you’re mad. You are. Huh!?

Who am I talking to?

You know…I was straight.

(August 12th, 2024)

I really was acting.

Why is it eerie? Do I have to explain? Let’s see…because he was angry. He felt Jack stole from him too. And he set up that photo knowing Lacey would say that. Or I would. On this very blog. Right now.

Yes. He was angry Jack was US President and not him. They displayed a photo that was taken of him right before he died. And he was hurt actually, at first, but then decided to use it. And use me.

You know…you don’t know it…but Joe saw a lot of this. In the 1960’s. …You know how he posed next to me in the White House with his younger brother Jack? Via photo? He arranged that intentionally. It’s meant to be an eerie photo. And it is.

The Kennedys use people. …Except I think he aimed to use Lacey…or dreamed of using Lacey…and still kinda maybe loving her too. You know? …Let her insight and compassion guide him and make him seem more human and lovable…to get power. She’s very analytical. But believe it or not she’s also extremely loving and compassionate. She’s a very empathetic person. Not just as trauma response but…rather…that’s her heart. …And he would have felt, somewhat as a narcissist and a man, that his job was to protect her. Shield her from you. …But he would have used her just the same.

They were not meant for each other. …But…temporarily they had become soulmates. Because…they actually were in love. For real. He did love her. …And…one of the funniest things about this whole experience…from the perspective of the dead…is how much the living seem to miss that part.

…Why do you stupidly ignore that? And no. You can’t make it go away by telling yourself that she’s Jack reincarnated and that the Kennedys are incestuous. She’s not Jack Kennedy reincarnated. God help us. And I mean that. I’m pleading with Him for actual help.

No! …Joe fell in love with Lacey. Lacey Banks if that’s at all possible. …Decades ago! Long before you knew her, most likely. When she was a teenager. And actually, as a ghost, I doubt he was a creep. I think he interacted with her as a very young man or a teenager himself. Just because. …It was…intriguing to him.

Yes. She’s actually that feminine. Yes. She’s actually that smart and analytical. Yes…she’s that beautiful too.

…Would she have been like Jackie!? No! …More like a straight, sexy…very…calm version of Eleanor Roosevelt. Deep. Serious. Well-bred. Joe tended to fall for very rare, intelligent women. He has…exceptional taste. To be honest. And fair. …Athalia…Edith…Pat. Those are all historically verifiable facts. He really did go for unusual women. Always. Or he didn’t fall in love at all.

Katherine Hepburn!!

How much does Lacey remind you of Edith…Pat…Athalia…and Katherine Hepburn? She’s his type. …This is real.

Yes. That’s why Jack is so weird with her. On the one hand he hates her. Because of me. And actually jealousy of his older brother. And on the other hand…he unconditionally loves her. Very slightly. And she unconditionally loves him. Very slightly. Because she really did love Joe. …And Joe really did love her. And Jack…wasn’t entirely heartless. So…he’s torn. He wants to destroy her…but at the same time…he has a loyalty to her he never had for me. And an brotherly intimacy that’s not at all sexual. So…they can eat cucumbers together and…it’s genuinely chill. But then he gets sad. Because he thinks about how messed-up his family is. How do I know this? Because I did think I was his best friend. And…God keeps me updated. I refuse to interact with him at all. And have since I died. …Obviously…her relationship with them…is different than mine. And until she’s with me fully…I have to deal with them…*I laugh* and it’s eye-opening. I don’t want to say I knew them. I did. But they were and are different around just each other. And yes…they’ve let her in more than they ever let me in. And that’s actually fine. I didn’t necessarily even notice…and thought things we were far closer than we really were oftentimes.

Sadly…and yet not at all sadly…things didn’t work out for her and Joe Junior. And sadly…the living Kennedys are affected by her…but may or may not fully understand that. Or understand that…at all. God knows.

This is an example of how stupid Satan is. And if there’s an Illuminati…don’t give them too much power and credit. They aren’t all superheroes/supervillains with alien lizard laser eyes. Okay? And they certainly aren’t God. …They should not…if they exist…have messed with her. …She’s Lacey BANKS. She’s Lacey Banks labeled as a “something-Scandinavian.”

But what is “something-Scandinavian”? Well…in her case it’s an elite-ish Old Money family. Yes. They are Old Money. We can discuss that more! But they are. …Sorry. …And in her case she’s Lacey Banks so you have Tom to contend with and actually…Al Capone. Dead. Her father really was actual friends with him. …The Cubs won the World Series when this started because of her…and Al Capone. He’d wanted them to win for decades. But then on her birthday she started drifting towards me. Away for eternity with me and God. So on her legal birthday, November 22nd…she got drunk. In speakeasy. And ate fried green tomatoes with Zelda who has been cheering her up ever since.

No. Scott and I are not in love. We have nothing sexual between us. Or romantic. But he’s an exceptionally good friend. A real friend. Remember those? The goodness and innocence of actual friendships. No. He’s not trying to steal Lacey from me. He can’t. And he knows that. And no…I’m not in love with Zelda. Or she with me.

The thing is…Lacey is Lacey Banks. And they just didn’t see that coming, if there’s an Illuminati. It’s shocking, sure. They’re also dealing with me. And Scott. And…others. They’ve been dealing with me the whole time. Lacey just didn’t know it.

Jan…who claimed to never have liked women openly until Lacey…was possibly a back-up plan for me. God used that…as He can when we worship Him…to instruct her about what’s possible. People are complicated. And no. I wasn’t gay. Really. But…so what if I was! Maybe I wasn’t at the same time. Technically bisexual. That sort of thing. …She had to learn to trust herself and not just listen to people’s opinions. And I know that lesson too. From my male…straight…and also tough-person perspective. Analytical. Hopefully also loving. It didn’t work out with Jan. But maybe she learned something valuable.

But…my interference, as dangerous as that is…isn’t necessary for attacking someone the way she’s been attacked to be so dangerous. If there’s an Illuminati. And we’ve arrived at my first major point today.

  1. Attacking anyone’s mind…past a certain point…is inherently profoundly dangerous.

Why? Because we exist. …I’m a ghost!

God says our eyes are the window to our souls. Our minds are very closely interconnected with our eyes. And while our physical eyes are mortal…the window is not entirely mortal. What’s behind the window? Us. Me. Her. All of you. We all are behind the window of our eyes. And to mess with one’s mind…can also, be inferred as a provocation of one’s actual eternal essence. What’s dangerous about that? …It’s a hornet’s nest. You’re swimming with giant snakes. Blind.

Some things are fallen. You can’t make them safe when they aren’t safe. They just aren’t safe.

So…as much as Diego was having fun attacking a random, popular Instagram account…because he didn’t have as many followers as her…as close to power as he was…and she threatened his ego…it wasn’t safe. He felt incredibly insecure and scared. Daily. And bitter. But it wasn’t safe to relieve his fears and rage that way. And it wouldn’t have been with anyone.

Lacey Banks? Ha! No. She actually is beautiful. And real. It’s a funny thing. Right? …But what if she’d been…Lucy Banks? Of North Carolina. …Well…God cares. But I’d bet there’s bound to be someone who’s gonna get angry on Lucy Banks’ behalf as well. And you’d be surprised. Lucy Banks might have…ended the Olympics. For real. No wars. But…her meager family alliances might have very well almost permanently shut down the Olympics. And God would still be angry, rightfully.

If there’s an Illuminati you can’t mess with people’s minds as a joke. Just to feel important. And that’s what Diego did. And his friends. …They’re embarrassingly immature, backward morons in deed. How much about everything did they and do they completely miss? …And yes! Of course Hungarian dictators are watching. Of course they’re intrigued by how dumb Diego was. Why do you think Iran killed Diego? They felt he was too dangerous to keep alive. He knew too much and he was a total fool…

“Bless his heart!” says Zelda, on her and Lacey’s behalf.

And yes…it’s been loud. Because you attacked her. Not Lucy Banks. But…anyone is truly dangerous. There are some things you can’t do. Like trying to fly off a cliff using your arms!

See…they used no common sense!?

Or was Diego…a homicidal person? And don’t think Donald Trump doesn’t use Diego behind closed doors. He was an illegal immigrant. He really was. He technically wasn’t supposed to be here. There’s no legal history of him ever existing.

But Diego shouldn’t have been given that much power but he was because people think Satanism and New Age tactics will alter things. Like alchemy. And it’s not just being open minded. It’s…sad delusion. Diego was a poor, foolish but creative man…with a rightful amount of rage. And he charmed his way into a lot of people’s hearts and minds.

Some people would say it’s a flaw in our Liberal society. They don’t acknowledge that a queer man like Diego can be problematic when he refuses to acknowledge that he’s queer. He expected himself to be macho and manly…but his deep insecurities made him blind to Lacey’s sweet, trembling femininity that she hides to fit in and because she wasn’t loved enough to realize that part of her own personality. But more on that later. Anyway…he expected a toughness or…masculinity she does not understand from a personal perspective almost at all and instead of dealing with his insecurity he demonized her and made thousands of his like-minded friends blind as well to her real personality. But again, more on that later.

Why would he expect that though? Because he’s like Jack. …Any area where he’s suspiciously effeminate he was narcissistically triggered by the mention of. So…her innate femininity was too hurtful and he quick as lightning ignored it on cue. As a habit. I’ve seen lots of men do that like him. Especially today. In the past they would have just instinctively covered it up. Acted tough. But today they pretend other things. And with women I’ve seen them ignore feminine traits that are real and inborn…and usually it’s not too dangerous…but with Lacey it was. I think they do that because the feminine traits remind them of their own self-perceived feminine traits and/or they feel too demons for their own liking so they narcissistically pretend the traits don’t exist so they can feel less non-traditional than the woman. Being traditional can sometimes be a nice thing. And they know that. So they act like they’re amongst their own to feel less insecure. Diego consistently did that with Lacey. A lot of people nowadays do though. It’s one of the reasons she’s so alone. But again, more on that later. And no…it’s not ill-breeding, evil, insanity, or stupidity. Or immaturity. It’s femininity. She’s allowed to be weak and fragile with me. Because I still remember what a woman is. And the reality is that as strong as she is…she’s still a woman. Diego didn’t understand that. I don’t think most of MSNBC and their guests understand the British or femininity…or the American Midwest. And certainly not Scandinavian culture or history. Diego was also of course a victim of other people’s mistakes, arrogance and pure evil.

JD Vance’s Midwest isn’t Lacey’s Midwest. Somehow that’s been lost. Minnesota isn’t Ohio. There’s a similarity. But ultimately they’re very different. Tim Walz is from Minnesota. He couldn’t exist in Ohio. His personality isn’t there, geographically. And that’s one gaping flaw in America. We’re not all the same ethically. ‘Diversity’ is a foolish 20th Century word. The world is inherently diverse. Striving to alter what’s natural in regard to diversity is a dangerous business. At times it may be necessary. But it should be treated with the utmost seriousness…and concern…and it hasn’t been.

These are my thoughts. Mostly. In case you wonder.

“You were into sports?” says Jan, in the future to Lem.

“Ya!” says Lem, laughing, arms folded across his chest as he sits, a large man at 6 ft. 4.

Jan waits.

“I liked rowing!” says Lem.

“That’s a real sport, you know?” says Jan.

“Yeah. They don’t know that!” says Lem.

“Why didn’t you like football?” says Jan.

“It just bored me.” says Lem. “It’s not bad. But…I really just found it boring.”

“That doesn’t make you gay, Lem.” says Jan.

“Maybe I didn’t fully know that then.” says Lem.

Jan laughs. “They brainwashed you!”

“In a way they did.” says Lem.

“Dude!! …Did you ever read gay porn magazines!?” says Jan, laughing.

“I did at first.” says Lem. “But they…weren’t…enjoyable.”

Jan laughs. Rubs his eyes. “Why did you never realize how weird that was!??”

Lem thinks. “I just- I thought I was…asexual.”

Jan looks horrified.

They sit in silence.

“Jan, I just didn’t know.” says Lem.

“I just don’t understand how a man can sit and read Playboy for years…and think he’s gay!” says Jan.

“Well I did.” says Lem.

“Did your boyfriends ever find out?” asks Jan.

“Yeah.” says Lem.

Jan laughs. “I suppose they just looked the other way.” he says, suddenly thoughtful.

“Well…some maybe thought it had something to do with Jack. You know? Like…I had some sentimental attachment to Playboy because of Jack. People are stupid. You know? How does a friend confirm someone else’s sexual orientation!? We can’t! …But Wikipedia says the opposite, in essence. Right? …People make up shit. When things get too complicated. Lots of foolish people who are just being human make stuff up. …So…they made stuff up to make it make sense. And…I really think they did assume it had something to do with Jack. …And…men were expected to be attracted to women. So…maybe they thought it was part of my ‘closeted self.’” says Lem.

“That’s insane. Why would any man or any person who isn’t attracted to women consume Playboy for decades?” says a living gay man.

“For the articles!” jokes David Kennedy, who’s listening when he shouldn’t be.

“No! Jan that is weird.” says a living gay man.

“They found it weird. But they had a crush on him! So they did explain it away. And then when they broke-up with him…they forgot about it.” says a man who tried to date Lem.

“How do we not know this!?!” says another living gay man.

“WHO WOULD HAVE TOLD YOU!?” says the dead man who tried to date Lem.

“Fair point.” says a living bisexual man.

Jan nods. “I mean it’s weird. But yah! You liked sports! …What else?”

“Hunting. Fishing. …Actually I would have liked climbing and hiking but I rarely did that.” says Lem. “And I had asthma.”

“What other sports? Men in America are marked as gay or straight based on their ability to play sports.” says Dr. Moritz. “It’s gross. But it is what they do.”

“Yah!” says Jan.

“Tennis. …Actually I liked running. Weight-lifting. I might have liked wrestling. I wasn’t that into it. …Water polo fascinated me. It still does. Golf! I loved golf! So does Lacey…or she will. Ha! *I smile* …I’m not bad at skiing. She’s very good at it. …Hockey was tough. But if I had seen better and had better lungs…I might have liked it more. …I prefer tennis. And polo.” says Jan.

“If there’s reincarnation you love rugby and cricket. Especially cricket. You’re an excellent cricket player.” says Jan.

“What if there isn’t reincarnation?” says Lem.

Jan laughs. “I know, because I’m dead, that you’d still would love it. It’s nice. Lacey and you shouldn’t lie. You’re such Republicans.”

“They are. So am I.” says Joe Kennedy Junior.

“You’re not Republicans!” says Bobby Kennedy Junior.

“No. They mostly are. Nowadays. And I’m a Republican unabashedly so.” says Joe.

Vanessa Trump laughs.

“I actually have some real respect for Donald Trump.” says Joe Kennedy Junior.

“He’s going to get elected don’t worry.” says Bobby, in some irritation.

Joe looks sad. Quiet.

“What are you playing today? Golf? Do I see you playing golf?” says Bobby.

“Yeah! He loves to play.” says Bobby Senior.

“I do on occasion. It’s not really my sport.” he jokes.

“No. It’s Lem’s.” says Lacey.

“Yeah!” says Joe, smiling. “I like cricket.”

“Have you and Pat been living in England?” says Lem.

“Often!” says Joe.

“Why don’t you just marry her?” says Bobby Junior.

“I have.” says Joe, after some hesitation.

Bobby becomes quiet.

“Why are we alive?” says Joe I. “I wish the whole family was dead sometimes. All of us.”

“It’s just not the way things should or are done.” says Joe Junior. “And when it’s time you’ll join me. Lord willing.”

“I was named after you.” says Joe I.

Joe grins.

“I’m mad at God.” says Joe I.

“He knows.” says Joe Junior.

“You know it’s like what? 30 years? That’s not that long.” says Cheryl.

“You could make it shorter.” says Matthew Nesheim, joking.

“Dude! Why!?” says Joe II.

Matt thinks. Saoirse stops laughing with him.

“Inside joke.” says Bobby Junior.

“It made sense.” says Matthew.

Saoirse nods.

“But it doesn’t work.” says Bobby. “You’re just dead now. …I mean for some people in the Holocaust it might have made sense. But your so were totally free people.”

“Mostly.” says Saoirse.

“I didn’t feel free. I felt trapped in my own mind.” says Matthew.

“But-“ says a woman.

“Who talked you into it?” asks Vanessa Trump. “Let’s just say there’s an Illuminati. Who talked you into it?”

“That’s a daring question.” says JD Vance.

“I don’t want to put Lacey’s life in danger.” says Matthew. “A Democrat. I’ll say that.”

“A Liberal? Or a Democrat?” says Donald Trump.

“WHO!?” yells Iran.

“You know who.” says Matthew to Iran.

Iran looks shocked. “Does Putin know?”

“I have a feeling it was a Liberal Jew.” jokes a Rothschild.

Lacey sighs.

Another Rothschild laughs.

“It could have been!” yells Iran.

“I know!” says the first Rothschild.

“Yeah! He knows.” says Matthew.

“Did sacrificing you to…Omegadon…work?” says Iran.

“Hey! Omegadon isn’t God. He might not even exist. But they don’t know that.” says Jonah Wiley.

“We have some stupid Muslims who worship Omegadon too.” says Iran.

“Mmm. …Yeah! …For a few months it looks good. Long-term it’s worse. But they’re getting what they want for now. Whether they should have for their own good or not.” says Matthew. “And to be honest…I’d rather they sacrifice me than my kids or my wife.”

“They shouldn’t sacrifice any of us!” says his brother.

“What are they getting Matthew?” says Iran.

“Peace. Relative peace. In specific situations.” says Matthew.

“Like in Iraq and Afghanistan?” says Iran.

“Maybe.” says Saoirse.

“What are they putting off?” says Iran.

“You know. I’m not going to say it.” says Matthew. “It’s too grim.”

“What would that do to the Dollar?” says Iran.

“Who rescues the Middle East?” says Lem.
