Stan’s apartment must be in a really bad neighborhood too. He probably donated too much to the IAS to make rent. Now he has to do a boatload of work so Kelly can make another commission, but it beats sleeping under an overpass.
Enjoying this edition of “Regraded Being” makes me think of the steady and abundant stream of amateur psychographic evaluation to which one is subjected in C of S sales practices. Sheer madness—insincere and just plain sad. It shows (the 20/20 of hindsight) how much Scientology does not have all the answers. If they did, they would not have to steadily resort to all the crazy trickery the staff member “Kelly” embodies and PRACTICES with such sinister craftiness. Like the protagonists in “Ghostbusters,” reading this, I feel like I’ve just been slimed!
Jun. 24—NORMAN — On Saturday the battle for the Oklahoma GOP will begin when a far-right Senate candidate campaigning on debunked election conspiracies brings his campaign rally to Norman.
Jackson Lahmeyer, a Tulsa- based pastor, is running a primary challenge against current Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., who Lahmeyer says failed former President Donald Trump by not objecting to the electoral college on Jan. 6.

Lahmeyer’s “OKC Freedom Rally” campaign event is scheduled for Saturday at Embassy Suites in Norman and is slated to include a number of politicians, pastors, a convicted felon and individuals who were at the Capitol during the Jan. 6 insurrection.
Saturday’s speakers

The most recent addition to the lineup is Leigh Dundas, who videoed herself at the Capitol on Jan. 6 cheering on insurrectionists.
“This is a country that was birthed in a revolution, and God help us, we are going to fight another one if that is what it takes,” Dundas says in the video.

NOTE: I am posting this because I believe it is relevant, and indeed significant, when a Scientologist gets involved in politics, particularly when their involvement is covered by the mainstream media. I would post the same item if Dundas, or any Scientologist, campaigned for Congressperson Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the story had reached the mainstream media.
This took me back to one of Regraded Being’s Greatest Hits from March 25, 2016. The medicosis lumbosis “thing” is hilarious (as usual)! It also has deeper meaning, while symbolizing the ‘turning point’ of a bright but confused and vulnerable person while blindly deciding to join a cult. Really strikes a nerve, no matter your background.
Lumbosis
When your dick is so large that it weighs down on your spine and makes your back hurt. Example sentence:
I don’t know if I’m happy about my lumbosis, i enjoy the massive erections but I need to wear a back cast.
From the Urban dictionary. I think I prefer this definition…lol

Medico says
Hilarious, RB! I remember the first time I heard the word “Medicos” referring to doctors on some stupid tape by that fucking Dr. L Ron Hubbard.
Do any of you remember when El Ron referred himself as “DOCTOR” Hubbard?
Do you remember when he put that title on all of his Scientology books?
“Clear Mind, Clear Body” by Doctor Hubbard – a phony charlatan psychopath con artist.
What happened that led Miss Management to take Doctor Hubbard off of all books and lectures?
Scientology’s loaded language is so funny to me now that I am out of the cult, thanks to Jason Beghe.
I have not needed a Medico since I got out of the cult.
No more PTS ness either.
Let’s give a hand to Jason Beghe! Without those You Tube videos, I would still be chasing the carrot in the cult of Scientology.

There IS a cure for Medicosis Lumbosis forks. Just leave the cult and it goes away.

Medicosis Lumbosis??? guffaw….. Any sale is a sale and stat worthy in the $cienovers.
jacquelin davis says
What is Medicosis Lumbosis?
Mike Rinder says
A made up ailment that’s a play on Hubbard inventing a psychosomatic ill he called lumbosis
jim rowles says
You mean Hubbard also invented ‘stupidification’ to describe what he did to his followers?
Jere Lull says
Naw. He stole ‘stupidification’ from somewhere else.
