Scans on the internets of a book called Scientologie, published in 1934 Germany, have popped up.
My shenanigans detector is sort of going off (as this is almost too damning to be true,) but it’s still rather interesting. Though, Enturbulation prides itself on actively and truthfully fighting CoS – so I don’t see why they’d fuck themselves by getting involved in a hoax. Questions remain, though, such as “How do they know Hubbard read this thing?”
So, power here in my part of Tampa was down for about 45 minutes between 1 and 2 pm. It went back up and things seemed fine. However, everyone was able to get onto the web, and check out their tv’s to see that a huge portion of the state is out. Word around here is that everything should be back up and running by 6PM, shitty power grid not withstanding.
Jessickuh keeps calling me and saying that me and the woman can drive to Texas and bunk with her and her husband. While our power was out, sporadic text messages kept coming in to the effect of “I see the news. Y’all are having a fucking terror state!“, “Christ, that’s scary!“, and my favorite : “Going to DragonCon?“

TAMPA – An unknown problem in the statewide power grid has sparked widespread outages throughout the Tampa Bay area this afternoon, as utility companies scramble to figure out what went wrong.
Tampa Electric was fielding calls from customers whose power went out this afternoon, said Laura Plumb, utility spokeswoman. She said she didn’t know how many people were without electricity or when it will be fixed.
TECO is part of the statewide grid, she said, and because power is out in the Bay area doesn’t mean the problem has occurred here.
The Miami Herald is also reporting massive power outages throughout South Florida, including Miami, Doral, Westchester and Pembroke Pines. Reports of outages extended into Palm Beach, a Florida Power & Light spokeswoman said.
