Do you own the phone # 1-647-946-0777?

I received a call from that number, though the person didn't take the time to leave me (Brian Joseph Johns) a message.

647 area code is the Greater Toronto Area, though I don't know or recognize that particular phone number. If you call, at least leave a message.

Most recently Stripe/Big Cartel payment processing system has attempted to hold my identity hostage, as well as Facebook a number of times. Identity denial is when a group or online service works collectively with others to deny a person of their own identity, most often so they can replace that identity with someone of their choosing, who is more friendly to their group or ideology.

As I've stated, there have been many attempts to deny or replace my identity with that of others. Usually members of identity thieving cults that are becoming quite common online and in local communities unfortunately.

Some of these groups will (illegally) monitor your internet activity and attempt to profile your identity based upon your online habits, such as what videos you watch on YouTube and what not.

As a writer, I'm often doing research for what I write, though I also have a wide variety of interests, especially on YouTube, though for the most part, I use YouTube for ASMR and relaxation, when going to sleep for the night or when catching a nap. To some, the videos I choose to listen to in order to fall asleep, might seem to be inconsistent with my own identity. 

For example, I often watch a lot of videos related to dantians and meridians in the Traditional Chinese Medicine, and aspects of Reiki as well. I also watch videos related to Korean facial massage, which I find quite informative and relaxing as well.

Despite being into martial arts (not actively as I used to be seeing as I'm getting up there in age despite my being fairly fit), I also watch videos produced by makeup artists, which helps me immensely when doing artwork for Butterfly Dragon and Tales of the Sanctum related stories. Not to mention, I have a fascination with the art itself as much so as I do with martial arts. If a cult were to profile my identity based upon the kind of stuff I watch on YouTube and other places on the internet, they'd probably come to assumptions about me that are simply not accurate, seeing as I use YouTube for much more in terms of research.

Unfortunately, I've found also that there seems to be this effort with attempting to completely replace my identity and history with someone else's, including their culture (someone African, Caribbean or biracial African or Caribbean, neither of which am I) or to replace my gender (the group often attempts to replace my gender identity with that of someone trans, which I'm not). I'm a European Canadian man, as I've always stated, not to mention my own love interest is a Southeast Asian woman.

The amount of technical effort that goes into altering the impression of my identity is also quite remarkable. There are often network hacking punks that park outside of the building of my home office, and they in addition to attempting to attack my WIFI and network, also verbally harass me as well, in combination with my neighbours. 

I'm just letting you know these details in case you're encountering the same thing, and to let you know the reasons why some of my rants and posts might seem a little off of the wall.

I don't work as a security guard and never have. Shhhh! Digital Media is my full-time business and one that I work every week between forty and sixty hours a week, though more and more often, I find myself in conflict with those people trying to take my identity, or my content or both.

My name isn't Bryan Toms, and my name isn't spelled with a Y as in Bryan. My name has always been spelled Brian. I'm not Jamaican either, and I don't have and never have had dreadlocks, nor have I ever been a sex trafficker in my life. I've never used cocaine or crack cocaine in my life either, and I don't go by the nickname Brown Ting (as used by this cult, a slang version of the word "thing"), though the same harassment cult are trying to insult Chinese culture by their misuse of the word ting, as the word ting in Chinese is generally a humble acknowledgement of being at one's service, much like a waitress or a waiter would use to address their customers in a restaurant, or a masseuse in a spa would address their client.

I am not a guitar player and I'm not on the brown black team. I'm with my Shhhh! Digital Media colours or red black, red white, red yellow and grey, and I'm not from Nova Scotia with all due respect.

My photo is most often, at the bottom of every post as it will be in this post.

I'll be continuing working tomorrow on the most recent Grand Tapestry Of Moments trio of stories for Halloween, not to mention you'll get the one I promised for Era of the Spellbound, that takes place in Mila's home in Shepperton off the Thames, United Kingdom, though keep in mind that I, the author of this content live in Toronto, Ontario, Canada from where I produce everything you see and read here on Shhhh! Digital Media.

I will be returning to content that focuses on cutting edge science as well, but for the time being I'm re-establishing the foundation of the various storylines of Butterfly Dragon and Tales of the Sanctum as a result of the retcon that occurred at the end of Unfinished Bee's Wax. 

The most recent story on Grand Tapestry Of Moments takes place in a familiar - yet different world, and will include three stories, much like another popular short story novella I wrote a few years ago that included three stories that all revolve around a measuring tape.

I'll see you tomorrow with those stories, and no disrespect, but I'm neither Irish nor Mexican with all due respect, though I harbour no ill towards either group, unless they're involved with the effort to steal or replace my identity. Not to mention, my name isn't Clarence or Terence, and I don't look like Tom Hiddleson or Loki for that matter. I'm 6 feet tall and about 175 lbs, and fairly fit, toned and healthy for my age. Also, I'm not a Jehovah's Witness, or a Mormon, or a Zionist with all due respect. I'm an Atheist that leans toward Buddhism and Taoism, and one that does his best to remain secular.

See you tomorrow with more to Grand Tapestry Of Moments episode 2. :-)
