It's a beautiful day on the beach. The sun is shining, the water is peaceful. Time for a swim. The water caresses your skin as you glide through the currents.
Something grazes your foot, perhaps some seaweed. Suddenly, a pain shoots up your leg like a fire in a wall cavity. A bullet of venom is shot from a translucent organic pistol straight up into the sole of your foot.
You desperately rub and scratch the injection site, but it just makes it worse. Your heart is pumping a million gallons a minute. The vein on your forehead will burst from the pressure. The pain comes in waves like the ocean that betrayed you. It washes over you, melting your being and sucking you away like grains of sand in the tide leaving little of you behind but the pain. It's useless to cry or make any sound. There is no relief.
The jellyfish is brainless and plays no favorites. We are only reminding you to be careful. We are reminding you of the randomness of the universe. The nematocyst plays the tune this week, and the cycle of calm and storm is reflected in this jarring reminder from Bro Safari & UFO!.

The activities of AK Rockefeller and ITS constitute an ongoing psychological operation against the warmongering capitalist status quo. By taking the Rockefeller name and manipulating the symbols of power, AK creates a real fictional alternative to the fake populist movements of today quietly serving the interests of existing elites.

Water is the mother of all life, and is the chief ingredient of most of it. Without water, most living things die. We jellyfish are a shining example. The way we move and eat only works in water. Without the buoyancy of water, we would simply melt into the ground…

We jellyfish are masters of the art of subtlety. When we hunt, we simply wait for our supper to come to us. Our energy is expended on arriving in the right place at the right time. Preparation and planning is the key. Gauging the movements of the currents, smelling the morsels on the waves…
My Own Private I Don’t Know – Fascinator

We jellyfish don’t know anything. You might think we’d be confused by this, but in fact the opposite is true. There’s great certainty in total emptiness. We’re never torn by indecision. We never have to worry about what’s right and what’s wrong. We can just go with the flow and let the waves wash over us…
