Newspaper Claims Ghost Sex Is a Hot Relationship Trend; Plus: Pulitzer Uses XpLrR to Promote Conservative Politics

7/11/2016

43 Comments

 
Are you or someone you know in a sexual relationship with a space alien or a ghost? According to ghost hunter and ancient astronaut believer Maija Polsley, writing in the New York Daily News, sex with supernatural creatures is all the rage, and celebrities like Elementary star Lucy Liu, singer Kesha, and Paranormal Activity 2 actress Natasha Blasick have extolled the orgasmic virtues of ethereal lovers. “I really enjoyed it,” Blasick said. “Sheer bliss!” Liu raved.
A large chunk of the article seems to be cribbed, sometimes nearly verbatim, from a February piece on The Talko to which Polsley has added ancient astronaut material.
 
Polsley, who regularly writes about the paranormal for the website of the Daily News, relates these women’s autoerotic fantasies to the Sons of God from Genesis 6:1-4, who descended to Earth to have sex with human women. “The ‘sons’ refers to the ‘fallen angels’ who in my opinion are a bunch of aliens who might have gotten a bad rap but nevertheless were super randy,” she writes.
 
Polsley is the co-founder of Paranormal Pursuit, a streaming-video ghost-hunting organization that she had hoped to use to launch a cable TV reality show. She concluded her column with advice for dating a ghost or space alien: “Don't get sucked into a draining relationship. You should feel empowered and safe…” So only consensual anal probing?
 
Speaking of which: When Scott Wolter and J. Hutton Pulitzer announced their joint multimedia venture, XpLrR, in May they made it sound like it was a 50-50 partnership between the two men, calling it a “historic merger.” Not surprisingly, Pulitzer has treated their supposedly joint venture like his personal property. (Ownership is unclear since I could not find any public records or registered intellectual property for the venture, and their domain name is registered to a proxy service.) The pair’s @GoXplrr Twitter handle is written entirely by Pulitzer (he also has his own personal @HuttonPulitzer handle). He has been tweeting out controversial conservative political material that (a) has nothing to do with the pair’s fringe archaeology and (b) is at odds with Wolter’s own feminist liberalism. I wonder how Wolter likes be associated with such content?
 
In the past few days, Pulitzer posted links to extremist conservative material accusing the U.S. attorney general of undermining the Constitution by allowing the U.N. to police American cities. He also posted about his concern that Pres. Obama would attempt to prevent the presidential election by declaring martial law, and he shared paranoid conservative videos alleging that the U.S. government is preparing for imminent martial law. (The claim was recently popularized by Alex Jones, Donald Trump’s favorite online conspiracy theorist.) The last use of martial law in America occurred in 1961, when the governor of Alabama declared martial law in an attempt to suppress the Civil Rights movement. 
 
Pulitzer also posted material that contained racial commentary on the problems with African American culture, including criticism of Alton Sterling, a Black man shot by police officers last week, attacking Sterling as a bad father who promoted thug culture. Pulitzer changed his Facebook photo to “Blue Lives Matter” and praised critics of African American culture for standing up to what he sees as a culture of violence and thuggery.
 
Pulitzer also used the @GoXplrr Twitter handle to link to his persona Facebook page to announce that he suffers from PTSD acquired due to “seeing suicide boomers (sic) vaporized in an instant in fact so fast their upper torso become a pink mist and their legs take a few seconds to know it and fall.” Pulitzer had announced the same thing on his Facebook page on July 2 last year, in virtually the same words. He did not specify where he saw suicide bombers, but he implied that it was in Israel. I did not mentioned his PTSD while confined to his private Facebook page, until he himself made it public this week on Twitter. But again: What does this have to do with the XpLrR operation?
 
Meanwhile, the pair’s XpLrR.tv website remains unfinished and contains only Pulitzer-related advertisements and failed memes. Their Periscope channel is unused, and all of their public releases so far have gone out under Pulitzer’s personal social media accounts or under his former Treasure Force and/or History Heretic brands. It kind of makes me angry that the two of them are so incompetent when it comes to putting together a multimedia venture. On the plus side, this incompetence means that no one can find their products, but it almost makes me feel bad for Wolter, who is getting the short end of the stick by serving as Pulitzer’s latest acquisition to create fictitious credibility. Just check out his incoherent and rambling LinkedIn page, which reads like Chinese spam-bot tried to fabricate a fake dating profile for Tony Stark. Note that it includes his completely false Smithsonian “Laureate Medal,” and that he lists his “education” as all the schools that have a paper copy of the Smithsonian’s 2001 case study about his company. His page also claims, on such strength, that he worked for the Smithsonian!

When Wolter lucked-out in meeting the Kensington Runestone, he astutely recognized true European medieval presence up in this region...but then he used this newfound knowledge it in a way that he thought was in his favor; but, in the end, it will be seen that he has not done himself any favors, and the illogical legacy he built up and fomented for a short time will fall to the KRS wayside, marked: Invalid History Theories.

I contend that Wolter turned his back on present, valid evidences in this same region during the past several years, to seek after a multitude of other invalid histories, as seen on America Unearthed.

Near Wilmot, SD, for instance, there is what may be a medieval blacksmith basin for quenching, with attached stone anvil...which Wolter speculated in his Hooked X book as possibly being an altar. There is such a stone blacksmithing evidence in ruins at either Greenland or Iceland (I don't recall which), where a basin and stone anvil are seen within a former blacksmith shop. At Point Rosee, Newfoundland, near the mouth of the St. Lawrence River, such a basin and stone anvil may have been found:

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2016/03/160331-viking-discovery-north-america-canada-archaeology/

So, the question arises, why has news about this apparently planned blacksmithing spot near Wilmot, SD not been highlighted in National Geographic for all to see? There is a clear photo of this prospective rock basin and attached, carved anvil for the world to see...but the photo and information lies unattended and wasting away in a book(by Wolter containing way too much nonsense. (By the way, this proposed quenching basin with attached anvil is surrounded by three stonehole rocks, such as those found basically encircling the KRS.)

I contend that Wolter has squandered opportunities here in Minnesota, while seeking out and putting together ridiculous theories elsewhere. I recently discovered an actual lake with two skerries a day's journey from Runestone Hill, proving out a portion of the KRS's inscription, but he has cast this aside, even though H. Holand himself declared that finding this mysterious lake would help prove the runestone's message. Wolter has callously cast aside as meaningless a veritable time capsule found on the west bank of Davidson Lake, which is the Erdahl Axe found in 1894. Yes, he became skeptical about an authentic medieval Scandinavian axe, with attending affidavit, which was found precisely on the west bank of Davidson Lake, located up a succession of lakes directly off the Chippewa River. So, in effect, Wolter has dismissed actual evidence of the inscription being true, in exchange for claims of mere allegory concerning the massacre site. Ironically, again, Wolter is unwilling to consider new factual evidence about the KRS in favor of "numbers coincidence" attributable to a mid-Fourteenth century Mason-Monk. Wolter is claiming that the inscription carver was not telling a truthful story-line accounting of what happened, even though a lake with two skerries has been found a day's journey north of Runestone Hill, with a medieval battle axe having been found on the lake's slightly elevated west bank. It's also ironic that the Minnesota Historic Society accepted a copy of my presentation into their KRS archieves, yet Wolter couldn't be convinced. He said, "Good luck on finding the ten dead men."

It may be that Scott Wolter isn't really interested in the history of Minnesota where he see's conflicts of his own absurd interests. For example, I have made available plenty of information and photos showing that a Norse Code-stone has been found marking important waterways for large-scale claiming of land, but he has shown no interest, rather instead continuing on in his own illogical belief that the KRS is more than a memorial stone. I have tried to encourage him to look more closely at Minnesota, in his own backyard, but I think he must be looking for something bigger...like that stupid vault full of treasure in Montana.

Why can't he just settle for a small treasure chest marking a real land claim in an appropriate spot here in Minnesota? Who knows, maybe it will be a modest sampling of some of that elusive Templar treasure. Why not?

Hi jason, all -

Psychologically, a sudden loss of status can lead to paranoid schizophrenia with delusions of grandeur. With the collapse of blue color manufacturing, we're seeing that on a large scale.

While his economic analysis leaves a lot wrong,
Marx called these folks "lumpen prole".

What is happening is that some people sell them coherent delusional frameworks.

IN their minds, they retain status by mastering these coherent delusional frameworks. (Think of the guy working at McDonalds who identifies himself as a musician, a member of a "band".)

If you examine some of the recent mass homocides, their perpetrators will often have taken up one of these coherent delusional frameworks, and further isolated themselves from the real world, before they snap entirely and act upon their delusions.

I certainly hope this is a joke.

Schizophrenia is a neuro-chemical disorder. The exact cause of it is not clearly known but most medical research indicates that it stems from the brain not being able to properly process the neurotrasmitter dopamine. It is in no way related to a "sudden loss of status."
Additionally, the delusions that most people paranoid schizophrenia suffer from are not delusions of grandeur. The three primary subjects of delusion are sex, government and/or religion.

Also, there is very, VERY little evidence to suggest that more than an exceptionally small fraction of the perpetrators of recent mass homicides suffer from any diagnosable mental health disorder.

That's just the two-cents worth of a man with a B.S. in Psychology and is currently finishing a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling.

Hi Mike -

No, no joke, although I may be showing my age by using the classic definition :

"Schizophrenia is a mental disorder characterized by abnormal social behavior and failure to understand what is real.[2] Common symptoms include false beliefs, unclear or confused thinking, hearing voices, reduced social engagement and emotional expression, and a lack of motivation.[2][3] People with schizophrenia often have additional mental health problems such as anxiety disorders, major depressive illness, or substance use disorder.[4] Symptoms typically come on gradually, begin in young adulthood, and last a long time.[3][5]

"The causes of schizophrenia include environmental and genetic factors.[6] Possible environmental factors include being raised in a city, cannabis use, certain infections, parental age, and poor nutrition during pregnancy.[6][7] Genetic factors include a variety of common and rare genetic variants.[8] Diagnosis is based on observed behavior and the person's reported experiences.[5] During diagnosis a person's culture must also be taken into account.[5] As of 2013 there is no objective test.[5] Schizophrenia does not imply a "split personality" or "multiple personality disorder"—a condition with which it has been confused with in public perception.[9]

"The mainstay of treatment is antipsychotic medication along with counselling, job training, and social rehabilitation.[2][6] It is unclear if typical or atypical antipsychotics are better.[10] In those who do not improve with other antipsychotics, clozapine may be used.[6] In more serious cases—where there is risk to self or others—involuntary hospitalization may be necessary, although hospital stays are now shorter and less frequent than they once were.[11]

Instead of the new definition, which seems to limit itself to psychotic behavior' induced by genetic brain malfunction or brain trauma.

If you take a close look at the adoption of the German theosophist variants as the state religion of Nazi Germany, you may see what I mean.

As far as the mass murders goes, again I meant exactly what I said:
Particularly in the case of the Oklahoma City, bombing and the Gifford's assassination attempt.


TheBigMike
7/12/2016 07:29:39 pm

Okay, when you are discussing clinical work, mental health or medicine, the most current definition is the correct one. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental health Disorders fifth edition (DSM-5) is what defines schizophrenia today. Using any other definition, even previous editions of the DSM, like the DSM-IV, is incorrect.
The American Psychiatric Association spent YEARS researching each disorder and the changes in definition are very important.

Hi BigMike,

When you say:

"Okay, when you are discussing clinical work, mental health or medicine, the most current definition is the correct one. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental health Disorders fifth edition (DSM-5) is what defines schizophrenia today. Using any other definition, even previous editions of the DSM, like the DSM-IV, is incorrect.

It seems to me you are missing some information pertinent to life outside the USA.
Ever heard of The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD) produced by the World Health Organization (WHO)?

Furthermore is DSM V the most contested of it's series. Almost everything is PTSD now in DSM V.

So blindly going on DSM V as the truth without consulting DSM IV or ICD just make a onedimensional quack IMHO.

TheBigMike
7/13/2016 01:02:24 pm

~Ph

I appreciate that you know what the ICD is and it is a great resource used in many countries around the world. I, however, operate in the United States. CACREP, the organization in the US that accredit's counseling education programs endorses the most current version of the DSM.
I might consider turning to the ICD if I could not figure out a diagnosis from the DSM-5, but I would NEVER go back to a previous edition as that information is out-dated. I mean I could justify homosexuality as a mental health disorder if I went back to the DSM-III or earlier.

"Furthermore is DSM V the most contested of it's series. Almost everything is PTSD now in DSM V."

There are two points here that I will mention. First, the DSM-5 (not V) IS contested by many clinicians, most of whom simply do not want to part from the DSM-IV-TR. The DSM-5 is backed by empirical evidence that is as current as it can be. So far, the DSM-5 has not had any revisions while the DSM-IV had three revision between 1994 and 2000. That's three revisions in 6 years. the DSM-5 has been out for 3 years and has no revisions.
Second, is the point that "everything in the DSM-5 is PTSD now" Have you looked in the book? PTSD starts on page 271 and goes on for about 10 pages. the book is over 600 pages long. I fail to see how disorders like trichotillomania, REM sleep behavior disorder, major depression, and all the substance use disorders all fall under the umbrella of PTSD. Yes, the DSM-5 did away with the foolish and useless axis system and minimized the personality disorders (which do still exist). That only serves to enhance its usefulness.

Ph
7/14/2016 03:09:42 am

Hi Mike,

Have fun with the following DSM-5 classifications (i assume you are familiar with them but are just ignoring that fact)

Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder, for temper tantrums
Major Depressive Disorder, includes normal grief
Minor Neurocognitive Disorder, for normal forgetting in old age
Adult Attention Deficit Disorder, encouraging psychiatric prescriptions of stimulants
Binge Eating Disorder, for excessive eating
Autism, defining the disorder more specifically, possibly leading to decreased rates of diagnosis and the disruption of school services
First time drug users will be lumped in with addicts
Behavioral Addictions, making a "mental disorder of everything we like to do a lot."
Generalized Anxiety Disorder, includes everyday worries

As far as it not being revised yet, there is quite some movement about that in the USA as well, 13 (last time i checked) American Psychiatric Association divisions participated in an open letter.

Just don't go blindly on DSM-5.
This is why job experience is so critical, you can't just match DSM-5 and procede to distribute the narcotics.

TheBigMike
7/14/2016 02:23:45 pm

Okay, I will respond to some of your points here:

1) Disruptive Mood Dysregulation disorder is not just for "temper tantrums" it is for adolescents who have anger and temper issues and go through outbursts that are inconsistent with their developmental level (e.g. a fifteen year old throwing themselves on the ground an scream and smashing their fists, a set of behaviors more consistent with a 3-5 year old.

2) Major Depressive disorder DOES include some symptoms that people experience during the course of grief. However, grief is HIGHLY individualized and there is no "normal." Grief CAN be a trigger for a depressive episode.

3) Minor Neurocognitive disorder is far more complex than "normal forgetting at old age." In fact, age is not mentioned anywhere in the diagnostic criteria of the disorder.

4) I hate to break it too you, but there is no such thing as "adult" attention deficit disorder. Again, age does no appear in the diagnostic criteria for Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.

5) Binge-Eating disorder is not just eating too much. It's a pattern of excessive and uncontrolled eating behaviors triggered by distinct stressors and causes significant distress.

5) Yes, Autism is in the DSM-5 as Autism Spectrum Disorder. The definition HAS been designed to be more specific. More evidence and research was done on what Autism spectrum disorder is, thus allowing for more precise definition. This was to try to reduce the over-diagnosing of Autism.

6) First time drug users will NOT be mixed in with addicts as ALL the substance use disorders start with a MILD category which requires at least 2 symptoms. Those symptoms generally require at least some repetitive substance use, with the only exception being "cravings." Additional, what you call Behavioral addictions (the Substance use Counselling community generally refers to these as Process Addictions) are called in the DSM-5 are Non-Substance Related Disorders (of which the DSM-5 specifies Gambling Disorder)

7) Generalize Anxiety Disorder is not simply "every day worries" it is EXCESSIVE worry and physical anxiety symptoms that is disproportionate to every day worries.

8) Sure, 13 divisions of the APA participated in an open letter... Given that the AP has 54 divisions, 13 is FAR from a majority.

Lastly, you seem to have no concept of what a counselor does. It is NOT my job to rubber stamp a diagnosis on a patient's chart and dispense narcotics like a vending machine. I am NOT a physician. I am not a psychiatrist. I could not prescribe medications if i wanted to. My job is to create an environment where the client feels heard and comfortable enough to explore their emotions and process their experiences. It s by doing that that I can collaborate with a client and find the best possible diagnosis out of the DSM-5, which is something that most insurance companies REQUIRE in order for them to keep paying.
I DO agree with one thing you said, job experience IS critical and that is why EVERY CACREP program MUST include a year long internship.

Thank you again to TheBigMike because this sort of stigma is something I deal with regularly. In fact, they specifically listed and belittled my own diagnosis.

Sigh... More to the point, whenever guns and mental health comes up, it seems to always devolve into a conversation about how mentally ill people are not really sick. So we're used as a shield for gun control conversations, but denied existence as real people with real problems.

Money, power, prestige! Or possibly they think, "No, we need more capitalism, so we can squeeze more profits out of the grinding misery of our workers! Social welfare? Who gives a shit about THAT?" People on the bottom be more like, "This is crap, I can't even get enough together to stay healthy! We need less capitalism and more social welfare!"

And some of us take a good hard look at the world and go, "Human beings are involved, there is no point on any scale at which there will not be significant suckage for some group. How can we minimize the suckage?" Marxism is NOT that point, and even Marx didn't believe it could work on a large scale, as I recall...

Hi Mark -

While I've often been accused of being a "low brow material determinist",

you have to remember that Marx was describing the society he was in.

Over the last 180 years, the social sciences have evolved, although not as fast as the technologies of warfare, a fact which is of great concern (at least to me) .

If the roles of the actors in capitalist systems are limited properly by law, they appear to work pretty well

I will, in fact, argue that almost every single one of those mass murderers was sane. This is based on the fact that "sane" and "insane" are legal terms and HAVE NEVER BEEN clinical terms.
Sanity is a term used in the courts to determine if a person is capable of understanding the consequences and moral and ethical weight of their actions. Since the mass murderers who lived are invariably chatged, tried, and convicted, they are, by definition, sane.

V
7/12/2016 07:20:37 pm

EP, I absolutely would argue that mass murderers were sane, for the most part. Sorry if it makes you uncomfortable, but I don't like this trend of EXCUSING people who do shitty things by dismissing them as "sick.". Lack of accountability only leads to more people committing those acts, and the same people repeating them. You are being deliberately obtuse, or else very ignorant and posdibly stupid.

Every human being is capable of murder and even mass murder. It doesn't take mental illnesses yo cause it. Stop lying to yourself that you couldn't possibly do something like thst yourself and figure out what would trigger you--then avoid it. You'll be more trustworthy and safer then, and you won't hurt the rest of society by stigmatizing mental illness or let people get away with things they shouldn't.

You have a legal definition of insanity, started in a NY trail of a gilded age "robber baron" who shot his Gibson girl wife's lover in the early 1900's, and which was developed from there.

Then you have an operational one, and if anything marks the"fringe" it is their inability to face/live with what is real.

Again, operationally, many of the recent mass murderers have adopted one of these coherentr delusional frameworks or another before committing their acts.

Regarding Chinese ghost love stories, that is a long running motif. Usual plots are distraught or loser boy meets tragic female ghost. Boy and ghost form tense relationship due to the fact one is dead and the other isn't. Boy saves ghost from horrible fate ;re-incarnation, exorcism, being absorbed by a stronger evil spirit, banishment (Christian. Buddhist or Taoist). Boy and ghost fall in love as result and live happily ever after, or at least until the next movie.

Give me a break. What you describe in your blog post is not "conservative politics".

Some of the headlines at this site read like they were written by the people at Salon.
