Welcome to the sci-fi fantasy electronic and alternative opera... For your information, Shhhh! Digital Media is in no way associated with the Salvation Army or any other religious or ideological organization. I myself have no association with them as well. There are people trying to sell you a much different picture of who I actually am and what I'm about than is the truth. I do not live or work in a homeless shelter with all due respect, nor do I live or work in a prison. I am an advocate for the charities represented here on Shhhh! Digital Media, but I am not a volunteer. I choose to do the best I can, where and when I can. I've never worked as a security guard in my life, but it is an honest way to make a living for an honest person, especially if they don't take the identity of other people.

What's Currently Happening At Shhhh! Digital Media?

Hi. Brian Joseph Johns here. The person behind most of what gets published here on Shhhh! Digital Media, though I always give credit where its due.


Now. First of all. My name isn't Jeff. I'm not Jeff Shura. I'm not Jeff Johnson. I'm certainly not Jeffrey Epstein or Dahmer. I'm not a bass player named Jeff, though I've got about as much knowledge of music theory, though more related to the piano, keyboards and MIDI, though not limited to the equal temperament scale. I'm always working on a lot of different things, and I don't often have time to get to everything I'm interested in pursuing for Shhhh! Digital Media, or as part of my own interests.


I've been working on developing a concept and assets into an entertainment piece of software, though its still in its early stages. I had initially hoped that I could produce something related to and linked to Butterfly Dragon and Tales of the Sanctum, but both the ideas I have for each of those story lines that involve entertainment software would require resources far beyond my current level to sustain such vast projects, and that doesn't even take into consideration my inexperience with taking on such an endeavor.


So, in the interest of actually making progress, I chose to pursue a much smaller but no less ambitious project idea, that would act as the practice run that would eventually lead to these other projects that would then bring Butterfly Dragon and Tales of the Sanctum to life.


There are still numerous hurdles to be overcome, but progress has thus far been better than it has been so far on any other attempt, as the idea is starting to take shape, rather than just being a tiny tech demo that shows off a few graphics and some music, like the graphics demos of the old days. An artform in and of itself, but one that if it goes no further, is simply a dead-end.


The problem with the pursuit of such projects is that when I focus on things of that nature, it takes me away from writing, which is the real draw to Shhhh! Digital Media, and everything comes to a stand still in the lives of Helayne, Mila, Alicia, Shaela, Monique, Nelony, Valerie, Gallea, Zheng, Glynis, Norler, Wes, Neil, Neville and... you get the picture. Not to mention, there a lot of other elements in the sense of abusive social collectives who wreak a lot of havoc that becomes obstacles against the growth of Shhhh! Digital Media, and often seeks to steal my effort and give it to the credit of people who have nothing to do with it at all. That gets to be quite painful the more that it occurs, and certainly on this Friday 13th of February 2026, its been a very, very difficult day in that regard. I mean its not like I work as a security guard here or anywhere. I've never been a security guard in my life, but it is an honest way to make a living for an honest person. A dishonest person would be someone who takes the credit for the effort of others, or aspects of their lives to wear as their own.


Regardless, I'm gratefully healthy and persevering, but often angered by abusive treatment by collectives who for the most part, are protecting bullies who are trying to steal my effort from me, and create a much different impression about me and my history than is the truth. Regardless, I'm continuing with the project and that has left this as the first week in a while where no new written content has arrived.


I had originally planned to write today, but after a rough period yesterday, I decided against it and am postponing writing until sometime into next week, possibly as late as by next weekend.


Now, in the interest of clarify my identity and to give you a picture who actually produces this stuff, versus the account of the people who've been trying to steal it from me: I am not transgender nor is my love interest transgender. I'm a man, 6 feet tall and about 175 lbs, in fairly good shape for my age of 58, and a man whose love interest is Southeast Asian, and both of whose more recent relationships were with Southeast Asian women, and that does not involve my stealing anyone else's identity for that to be the case. So for instance, I am not stealing John Penny's identity, just as much so as he's not the writer of anything here on Shhhh! Digital Media, and likely would never take the credit for it. 


I have never dated a Chinese woman with a "bob" haircut. My Chinese-ex has hair that touches the floor, and I'm the only man she's ever shown it to in public out of a hair bun, which in Chinese culture is just about the biggest display of affection a lady can make. That's the same lady that was stalked and chased away to the point of it being a risk to her health. She doesn't smoke, and nor do I. I don't use crack cocaine, and never have, or cocaine in any form for that matter. I've never involved any woman in narcotics at all, and that certainly applies to my last girlfriend who is Korean. In the same area I live, there was a fellow around here who attempted to get his younger girlfriend involved in narcotics (crack cocaine), and some people in the community attempted to weaponize his identity, and to transfer his reputation to mine, so that rumours were that I sold crack cocaine, and had gotten a young Korean girl involved in it, in place of the real man who did such a thing. 


That is a very good explanation of how cults and abusive collectives in communities operate. They collectively seek to weaponize the identities of their worst community members, and then apply those identities to the people they seek to target (like myself), so that my readers get the impression that I'm a crack cocaine dealer that has a thing for Korean women, and gets them involved in narcotics and then proceeds to traffic them. That was the dynamic around here years ago, though I've never been involved in anything of that kind, but that should give you an idea of how some people operate in terms of weaponizing the identities of the worst people. If something like that were to stick to me, then members of the Korean community would likely grow to despise me, and possibly boycott my website and writing. Meanwhile, the real culprit who was attempting to traffic young Korean women around here, he'd off and living somewhere else, wearing a completely different reputation than his own and one that would likely be very flattering, until he wrecked it just like he did around here. This is the modus operandi for many abusive collectives who seek to sabotage or destroy the lives and careers of people growing out of this community. You don't know who I am, and just about anyone could come along and claim themselves as the writer of content here, and that is exactly what these abusive collectives prey upon and how they dump their garbage and take the best of others to wear as their own.


We're living in a very volatile time, where there are people who have no qualms in crossing the line when it comes to the ways they damage the lives and reputations of others, in seeking to rid themselves of their own conduct, not to mention, in the lives of those who've made amends with those they've wronged, and have gone on to make up for their mistakes, there are collectives who make the weight of their progress very heavy, while protecting those who've done much, much worse and that is creating in society the inability for communities to help those who've made amends progress with their lives and continue on in an honest manner in life. 


Some people believe that the heavier the burden, the more it has the ability to determine the future of the lives of those who are forced to carry it, and that is the motivating factor quite often, though that factor is determined by the people who make the weight heavy, rather than the people whose weight it actually is. For such people, its a way of owning others, and its creating problems that are keeping communities at a stand still and pushing them backwards as a result. Not just a few people. Entire communities as a result. I don't put up with it, and nobody else should. However, I'm not very forgiving of a man who'd attempt to get a young Korean girl hooked on crack cocaine so he could traffic her, whose friends then attempted to make that my weight despite the fact that I've never in my life, ever done anything of that nature, or even close to it.


We're living in a time where collectives purposely setup situations involving one person that they target, against many others, and when the one person does exactly the right thing, justly and morally in protection of others, the group that setup that situation remember it as having occurred exactly the opposite, in terms of who was just, and who was unjust and this has become another new means of weaponizing situations where a person does the right thing, but the group remembers it exactly the opposite as what really occurred, and that often gets the person who did the right thing, in trouble. I've been a target of just such a number of ploys, and have been damaged by them on several occasions, where people remember the exact opposite of the truth. Such as my sticking up for my Romanian friend Isobel, when she was being harassed by a man in her building that was slowly trying to push her towards trafficking her. 


I stuck up for her against him, asking him to apologize to her, and he punched me in the forehead and then ran into his apartment. I was then told by Police that they couldn't charge him because he wouldn't answer the door. Weeks later, I started getting trouble from people about what he was guilty of in that situation. In other words, the reputation that stuck with me, was that of being the perpetrator rather than the one who stuck up for the Romanian woman. Not to mention, another fellow who did nothing to protect her also got the credit for my standing up for her, and any time I speak about this situation and the truth of it, I get accused of stealing someone else's truth, when the Romanian woman would completely confirm the entire situation and the truth of it, but people in such situations are often stalked and the truth is socially rewritten as the exact opposite in the collective memory.


I'm not telling you these situations in order to say: "poor me". I'm telling you in order to let you know the kinds of hurdles that have nothing to do with Shhhh! Digital Media, that I'm facing on nearly a daily basis from abusive collectives who attempt to cover up everything I'm revealing about these situations, and often replace my identity in order to replace my appearance, my culture (so that my argument is actually protecting the perpetrators) and sometimes aspects of my religion or gender. That is why I often have to explain that I'm European Canadian and with very pale skin and having to clarify this during a month of significant cultural importance, is really disheartening, but I can't just let this go because if I did, then it too would be remembered as having occurred in the exact opposite way as it had and I won't have that and I don't think that anyone else should either.


So, every day when I'm working on this content, and the other projects behind the scenes, these other elements are going on in the background almost constantly, and this is exactly one of the big hurdles preventing me from moving more quickly to produce content faster, not to mention the people who are part of these collectives attempting to steal my content and the credit for writing it.


Today, their attack upon my person was geared towards the Friday 13th "hell day", and also to attack me after having advocated for Cancer fighting charities, something I frequently do. I don't volunteer, and around here there is a lot of extortion that makes other people pay for the sponsorship of volunteers by carrying the weight of their habits (such as crack cocaine). Hence, I don't volunteer, and I don't carry the weight of volunteers, especially those whom members of the community are just looking for someone to carry the weight and burden of their habits. I think that volunteering with that as a goal, basically to use other people as your garbage bag, is quite dishonourable and disrespectful to the plight of whomever it is your volunteering is helping, because that's really what its about. Its not about you turning their plight into an opportunity for you to dump your garbage onto others. Its about making a difference, and one where the reward is in actually doing it, not in making others carry the burden of your narcotics habit. If you  do have issues of that nature, then visit a harm reduction site. Don't make your weight everyone else's and have your gang members extort everyone else into to carrying your weight. I certainly don't advocate in order to force others to carry any weight associated with my life, despite the fact that I don't really have any issues of that nature thankfully.


Anyhow, I'm Brian Joseph Johns and this is Shhhh! Digital Media. My name isn't Michael, though I do know a hard working German fellow by that name and I hope that he's keeping well.


To the rest of you, I'll do my best to get some more writing in on Grand Tapestry (first), then Era of the Spellbound and finally on the game changing episode of Butterfly Dragon Reimagined, but its going to be a while, but possibly early in next week.


I published this post after the fight against the disease of Cancer promotion, because I don't want to replace it with a post like this. Its still my number one priority, but I had to speak about what I spoke about in this post. I want people to know what's going on, and I don't want my readers to end up with the weight of some dufus idiot that tried to traffic a young Korean lady, who thankfully from what I've learned, managed to continue along with her life and education. Not to mention, that is something I've never done nor would ever do, not to mention I'd never pursue any such means to my sex life as well. 


Besides, there are way safer means to pursuing one's sexuality that don't require getting a partner involved, let alone one who is being forcefully trafficked. Such means are and have always been safer in terms of risk, disease, pregnancy, violence and robbery and that only requires going it alone, and possibly with some kind of creative visual content that is consenting to the act and in its direct context and often performed by consenting sexual actors whose artform it is. Completely safe from all of the risks.


I am certainly against sex trafficking, however, I'd never tell a woman what she can and can't do with her own body. 


This is an issue that is at the heart of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal and certainly a testament to the life of Nobody's Girl, if ever such a hero were to have a superhero's name.


Have a great weekend.
