    “cold temperatures are usually deadlier than hot ones. Between December and February, 21% more Europeans die per week than from June to August. The relationship between energy prices and winter deaths could change this year.”

    I see no mention of a depleted immune system being a possible problem in a cold and damp environment. I’m sure that wouldn’t contribute to an increase in respiratory disease among others. I guess only time will tell!

    “30-Year-Old Co-Founder of Crypto Trading Platform Amber Dies “Unexpecteldy” in His Sleep”

    That’s five(?) crypto heads recently? “Died Suddenly” is suddenly very common – and no one’s interested in it – but that’s quite a trend. How would you tell? What if like China — that the WEF said today is their world model – we just happen to have lock downs in all the cities that are upppity, and all the people that annoy us just happen to test positive and die? Like egg farmers?

    Or alternatives to banking that disallow central control we’ve been working towards for 100 years?

    “There Will Be Pain” – Binance’s ‘CZ’ Floats Billion Dollar Bailout for Distressed Crypto”

    You are kidding me right? Let me put it this way: if you need a bailout, you’re not worth being bailed out. Get stuffed. It’s impossible to need a bailout since the wallet addresses still exist, and the coins are in one of those wallets. (Same with US$ banking)

    I did see a headline on FTX today: “This Is What the Top of Mt. Stupid Looks Like”, with a picture of Ellison.

    “Post-FTX Regulatory Crackdown Will Erode Liberties, Accelerate Path to CBDC ‘Social Engineering’

    That may be true, but if it can be regulated by governments, or prevented by governments, it’s not Liberty. Because they will never allow it. Then we have the same system as now. The CBDC “Social Engineering” money is what we have now. All money is digital. Almost zero money is paper form. All the computer accounts that it sits on are completely visible and tracked. You already can’t move $2,000, enough to buy a non-working car, and they are already freezing your accounts if you visit Ottawa for entirely legal reasons.

    I think Elon Musk is right: the Mainstream News Media will now face a venue where its habitual lying is called out forcefully…”

    Not really, as the people are habitual liars who approve. It starts with us.

    Kunstler: “Think of it: all the college presidents and deans, all the corporate CEOs, all the judges, all the governors, mayors, and agency heads, all the news editors and network producers who did nothing and said nothing about the wholesale demolition of truths, values, and principles carried out by Woke-Jacobin maniacs under their watch. And what’s more appalling: they all pretended not to notice each other’s craven inaction and silence.”

    This is what I mean by an immoral state, or an immoral West. If all the PEOPLE are completely without morals, what do you expect? That governments would be wildly MORE moral than their constituency? That “We’d be better than Ourselves”? We all pick ourselves up by our own bootstraps? That if I, an immoral person can’t hack it, I’d give it to equally immoral person to enforce?

    And some, like Musk, do, and barely as he’s a uncaring, chick-flipping, auto-car smashing murderer. But the immoral population will tolerate no morality and justice AT ALLand fight it with their life-blood at every turn. So 100,000 : 1 attacks at any limitations of any kind. Even for all the open crimes we’ve seen for decades in the FBI.

    “It’s hard to overstate how damaging Twitter’s dark years of insidiously massaging public opinion have been to this country.”

    That’s its POINT. That’s WHY it was created. Or a a minimum, captured from Dorsey, who it took years to capture it back. They tried some alternatives, but the App is the Users, and via Network effect, Twitter wuz it. So…they captured it. It sucks, and it’s a bad place to start, but if that’s what it takes, they methodically positioned and did it. AFTER the election.

    “You can already see The WashPo and CNN attempt to make small shifts in their coverage of events, which double as efforts to cover-up their past lying in the hopes that the public won’t notice”

    Yes, with much more LYING. “We never said lock down, AND we were on Hunter’s laptop from the beginning. You must be crazy and remember it wrong.” Uh-huh. Since the people are more immoral than the reporters, they approve and aren’t mad at all.

    “Science-is-Censorship”:

    Remember “Event 201”, the almost unbelievably timed blueprint for all this? Their 80% focus was CENSORSHIP. Control. Messaging. Media. The disease? Meh. It kills people so who cares? Go as slow as you can, maybe we won’t have to cure it. Naturally this $40M is a pittance. FTX gave that much themselves for censorship out of the ESG extortion mafia family of insiders. CNN, WaPo…what do you think paying like-kind value for their worldwide, media-wide biased PR services would cost? $200 Billion?

    “Twitter Has Lost 50 of Its Top 100 Advertisers Since Elon Musk Took Over (NPR)”

    The ESG mafia got woke, went broke. Since like Comcast and Cigna, they provide zero services for infinite money, enforced by paid government monopoly. Aka, “Fascism”. Now that they’re broke because they suck so much they can barely exist, they don’t have the money for advertising. So it goes for violent, oppressive mafias that kill everyone: eventually the people don’t like them anymore.

    P.S. NPR is also broke, since they are an advertising/PR wing of the Democratic Party, paid for by Republicans from coast to coast. Good work if you can get it. Imagine turning Fox news into a State Media arm, paid for by a tax only on Democrats.

    “The company is run by pro-Trump conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell.”

    That means he’ll be right in 6 months.

    “Antifa Plans to Burn Down Tesla Outlets Following Twitter Bans (Cheong)”

    Yes but to be fair, Antifa burns down everything. They don’t need a reason. But Tesla stations aren’t black people or black neighborhoods. Can they burn them down anyway?

    “large number of Antifa accounts operate on the website to promote riots and provide tips to each other on how to identify targets and commit violence.”

    I thought violence was illegal! The only thing not covered by free speech! Not if you’re Antifa, and your targets are black people. Then it’s open season. #Caring!

    “Hours after the bans, Antifa militants took to the social media platform to organize arson attacks on Tesla locations around the United States, posting the addresses of Tesla service centers and dealerships. “As revenge for [Elon Musk] suspending violent extremist accounts on Twitter, [Antifa] in Portland are organizing arson attacks on [Tesla] locations tonight,”

    This is literally extortion and racketeering. There is no clearer definition. It’s also terrorism more broadly, although I’m reluctant to use that word for most actions. But isn’t burning things randomly and broadly, which easily spreads to the general population, in order to violently intimidate people into political ends, the definition of Terrorism?

    Not according to Biden and the DoJ. FBI. DHS. Light it all up! We’ll burn more. Harris will be around shortly with the bail money, plus wages for protestors, as posted in Craigslist.

    Elon Musk: I’ll Make an Alternative Phone If Apple, Google Ban Twitter (PM)”

    In the years leading up to this, they specifically deployed infinity money against every. Single. Cell phone producer to engineer this snooping police-state monopoly, aka “Fascism”. That was against Nokia, Blackberry, and I’m sure several others, who were top-tier. They cannot be allowed. Now we only have s—t phones that cost $1,200 and barely work.

    It’s also why they used the “App store” plan to begin with. For example, it was the dumbest, tits-on-a-boar-hog slap-it-on system in Vista(?) and 10. It didn’t work for s—t and they still had the normal app installation at the same time. But it was all to “Cloud” apps, where they OWN YOUR PRODUCTION. That is, if you piss off Microsoft or miss a payment, you can’t even read your own documents. Not only are the DOCUMENTS in the cloud, where they and corporate competitors can pay to read them (a technique well-honed by Microsoft/Cisco/US spying on German industry) but you don’t even own the APP to read them with. You whole company ceases to exist. Law, medicine, real estate, doesn’t matter what it is.

    Now why any company would consent to this, I have no idea, especially as 10 days of the year something gets hosed and the company-required bolt-and-screw tracking app goes down, but apparently industry is even MORE idiotic and fail-oriented than even Microsoft. And that’s saying something.

    Anyway, the point of moving to this far less functional platform, was exclusively extortion and control. The people love it! “Shut up and take my money for apps that don’t work!” –Middle Management Purchasing, worldwide.

    What WON’T they do? Hire three in-house programmers at half the cost to write their own system, which gives them instant changes and long term control of their own data. Never! We would have to EMPLOY LOCAL PEOPLE! We hates the money soo much!!

    Nope. Give it to Microsoft, the biggest failure in the known Universe.

    ““300,000 pieces of arctic warfare kit.”

    300,000 pieces? Like “Mitten: Left” and “Mitten: Right”?

    ““restoration of [Ukraine’s] territorial integrity,” “compensation for all war damage,” and the “punishment of every war criminal.”

    Just a few little things: Give back all Russian states so we can finish ethnically cleanings them. Surrender Crimea and your largest base and warm water port. Versailles-level reparations to Ukraine, forever. And the arrest and execution of Vladimir Putin and every existing Russian official. To be replaced by Navalsky, with 1% popularity, and convicted criminal (for fraud). Oh and first-strike nuke for Moscow when we immediately join NATO.

    Hope you don’t mind and we’ll be sending our Army to Moscow to make sure, shortly. Right? Now why you don’t want peace?

    “Moscow rejects any doctrine that suggests a nation can be declared “terrorist”

    That is correct. States execute “war” under an umbrella of law and are not generally by definition terrorists.

    “Why should the treacherous Poles get anything out of this?”

    Hahaha. That’s because giving them Lviv and Western Ukraine isn’t a blessing, it’s a curse. It would tie up Poland for a generation, and change them forever.

    “The Economist: Gas & Energy Prices to Lead to Surge in Deaths in Europe (RT)”

    But, but, but, “If even a single life is saved…” We shut down all freedoms worldwide and transfer all assets to the 0.01%. But now “We’ll do whatever it takes, regardless of how many grandmas killed”? Huh. It’s almost like you don’t believe what you say. You should hire Cuomo.

    “She is being pushed by some Democrats as a possible surprise candidate for House Speaker”

    Apparently they don’t know how voting works? And I can see why not, having not done it fairly since 2000? The Democrats DON’T VOTE. They have zero say in the matter. It’s a GOP-only party vote. STFU.

    “some Democrats want Cheney to run for president either to dog Donald Trump in the primary debates”

    Please, PLEASE do this. Cheney, aside from being the face of her failed, hated, war-mongering father, is the face of everything America hates about the RINO party. Every day she gets in the news is a win for Democracy and Populism.

    “would focus almost entirely on Trump and the work of the committee’s “Gold Team,” excluding reams of other investigative work. Potentially left on the cutting room floor”

    Um. That means they didn’t find anything. Again. And again and again and again and again. We now know (and covered by Dore) that the FBI DID have MANY agents inside Jan 6 going back months or years. THE HEAD OF THE PROUD BOYS WAS A PAID FBI INFORMANT. The #2 of the OathKeepers was an FBI informant.

    …Yet they had no idea! They didn’t stop it! So many crimes were committed, they never arrested anyone beforehand! Oh wait: if no crimes were being committed because no one has been arrested, WHY WERE THERE MOLES AND INFORMANTS PLACED? On what legal basis? That requires a type of warrant and authorization. That we the FBI infiltrate and keep dossiers on everyone? Including the Quakers? (This is true).

    So you were in there for years, these red hats had all pre-planned and pre-organized a violent, armed coup, yet no one was arrested, nothing was stopped, and the Capital wasn’t reinforced even when President Trump asked everyone from Pelosi to the doorman, and in fact Twitter and the whole planet to get troops and do so? When zero weapons were found and the court has already ruled it wasn’t pre-planned?

    That’s your story?

    Yup. And the American people believe every word. Unarmed people always topple the largest government ever without any planning or weapons after the secret state illegally infiltrates them and knew all about it for months. Duh.

    ““Wow! It was amazing to spend 7 hours with Dr. Fauci,” Laundry wrote Wednesday on Twitter. “The man who single-handedly wrecked the U.S. economy based upon ‘the science.’”

    …And not “The Law” because literally every action he did was illegal. As Dr. Birx so helpfully wrote in her book: “We totally knew the vaccine wouldn’t do anything and wouldn’t stop the spread. So I lied and did it anyway and am very proud and happy.”

    “troves of discovery showing that the federal government and the Biden Administration have worked with social media companies to censor speech”

    This is a Civil Rights violation, arrestable, and able to serve long jail sentences. Also able to be civilly prosecuted for hundreds of millions in compensation, or even prove racketeering for organized crime.

    Huxley: And as he said in his extensive book, we first make sure they all have free drugs, sex, and porn. It’s critical to make them stupid and destroy the family. Is it “1984” or “Brave New World”? Both. Whatever works to make me more powerful and on full-service Epstein Island. It’s a Happy Ending.

    “What all the entrenched insiders in America’s parasitic, predatory elites and institutions don’t dare admit is that to protect themselves from consequence, we’ve had to sacrifice everything else…” –CHS.

    It’s like a cancer. Trust-fund kids COULD work hard and compete fairly. But why? It’s so much easier to win UN-fairly. But to win un-fairly they have to steal the gains justly due to smarter, better people. This is a cancer. The only way to maintain the unfairness is to create MORE unfairness and protect more, poorer, dumber trust fund kids. The circle affected must expand ever wider, involving more cheating, corruption, market to fill the black hole of incompetence generated by a few trust fund kids who don’t want to work, study, and compete fairly. Eventually the entire economy is a writhing system of unjust control, and a ragged rat’s nest of pure incompetence. Then it collapses and is conquered and occupied by violent outsiders and everyone loses, even the incompetent, unjust Insiders.

    A long article well worth reading if you really are looking for practical information, I’ll include a couple of snippets:

    Comparing the range of bows and firearms is far from straightforward. Bullets travel very fast initially (almost 3,000 km/h) but quickly lose speed along their trajectory. In contrast, an arrow travels relatively slowly (150-250 km/h) but loses very little speed. 56 The same characteristics that make it easily penetrate a target also help to penetrate the air. Furthermore, unlike bullets, arrows fly – they are among the first applications of aeronautics, thousands of years before the invention of the airplane. 923

    As a consequence, an arrow remains lethal during its entire flight, even at maximum range. Stronger still, its lethality increases if shot at an angle of 45 degrees, compared to shooting at medium range. 46924 The arrow will gain speed – and thus momentum and kinetic energy – on its way down. In contrast, when you shoot a bullet in an arc for maximum range, it will have lost so much speed that it’s unlikely to be lethal when it hits the ground. 25 A bullet not only needs more momentum and kinetic energy to penetrate a target. It also requires more speed to compensate for its inferior aerodynamics.
    ————————————–
    In the hands of skillful and strong archers, bows can produce a similar rate of fire as semi-automatic weapons, and they can outperform guns and pistols
    ————————————
    Rather than being technically superior weapons, firearms took the skills and muscular effort out of killing someone from a distance

    The plandemic was always just the beginning! I think most, if not all here, know this.

    Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò: The COVID Pandemic Farce Served as a Trial Balloon for the New World Order

    Once again: the assessment of events from a medical point of view should take into account the legal implications of certain choices, such as the imposition of masks or, even worse, mass “vaccination,” made in violation of the fundamental rights of citizens. And I am sure that in the field of health governance the manipulations of the classification codes of diseases and therapies will also emerge, which have been designed to make the harmful effects of measures taken against COVID-19 untraceable, from placing people on respirators in intensive care to watchful waiting protocols, to say nothing of the scandalous violations of regulations by the European Commission which – as you know – has no delegation from the European Parliament in the field of Health, and that is not a public institution but rather a private business consortium.

    Just in the past few days, at the G-20 Bali summit, Klaus Schwab instructed heads of government – almost all coming from the Young Global Leaders for Tomorrow program of the World Economic Forum – about the future steps to be taken in view of establishing a world government. The president of a very powerful private organization with enormous economic means exercises undue power over world governments, obtaining their obedience from political leaders who have no popular mandate to subject their nations to the delusions of power of the elite: this fact is of unprecedented gravity. Klaus Schwab said:

    “In the fourth industrial revolution the winners will take it all, so if you are a World Economic Forum first mover, you are the winners” (here).

    These very serious statements have two implications: the first is that “the winners will take it all” and will be “winners” – it is not clear in what capacity and with whose permission. The second is that those who do not adapt to this “fourth industrial revolution” will find themselves ousted and will lose – they will lose everything, including their freedom. In short, Klaus Schwab is threatening the heads of government of the twenty most industrialized nations in the world to carry out the programmatic points of the Great Reset in their nations.

    STORY AT-A-GLANCE
    Will Harris is a regenerative farming pioneer who runs White Oak Pastures in Bluffton, Georgia
    He produces high-quality grass fed products, including beef and other animal products, and is an inspirational example of how to convert from conventional to regenerative agriculture and thrive financially
    Regenerative agriculture, Harris says, “is a kinder, gentler agriculture … we call it biomimicry, the emulation of nature”
    While it’s an imperfect emulation, it helps to restore the natural cycles that have been broken by industrial farming
    Every agricultural county in the U.S. could replicate what Harris is doing to create sustainably grown food and improved communities
    Toward that end, he and his team created the Center for Agricultural Resilience to educate thought leaders on the benefits of building animal, plant and human ecosystems that can nourish communities instead of destroy them

    One of the things I will learn to make when I’m finished building my smithy shop, sometime over the next year.

    a crossbow from a leaf spring:

    Making a long bow:

    Making a recurve bow:

    All the process to make a traditional takedown recurve bow.
    The bow ends with 35lb@28″ and was made with bamboo + fiberglass laminated in limbs and some Brazilians woods in the riser.

    Tudor on bow making in general:

    In this step by step bow making video, Clay Hayes takes you, step by step, through how to make a hickory self bow from self bow design through tillering and finally shooting our new longbow. It is a complete guide, DIY self bow building for beginners. We start with a small hickory bow stave and use very few bow building tools to make this wooden bow. These techniques will work to build bows in the recurve bow, longbow, and flatbow designs. For this build we’ll use a drawknife and farrier’s rasp for the bulk of the work. We start by using the drawknife to remove the bark and cambium form the bow stave, then use a chalk line to mark center. We lay out a 64″ longbow and rough it out before starting to tiller the bow. Before the final tillering, we clamp the selfbow to a form and heat treat the belly to harden it and make a more efficient weapon.

    chooch, thx for the link prev. thread. Velina Tchakarova was new to me.

    Very tortured arguments I thought, typical ‘expert’ obfuscation, while making some good points like “Bifurcation”, ok. 100% anti-Russian while sounding ‘analytical’, purporting to present a knowlegeable, intellectually solid, world overview…(heh)

    She says: There are no plans in Europe of what to do “When Ukraine wins the war” (stated as a certain forthcoming result ..)

    (implied, >> EU leaders better get with the script and admit Ukraine will win)

    The questions pre-suppose: “There is a great chance Russia will collapse…” says the interviewer.

    She says: “Russia is eager to present itself as an actor for fake peace talks” (paraphrase)

    (>> Peace offers from Russia should be dismissed out of hand as they are ‘fake.’)

    (summary) She taxes Russia w. Nuclear Blackmail, Information Warfare, Food and Fertilizer and Energy Weapons. Russia has been carefully preparing for 8 years, and they have been waiting for the right timing to start it.

    (>> Russia is the epitome of evil and has been planning to conquer / fight war on Europe for 8 years, EU leaders better react, and fast)

    vid: https://bit.ly/3gGekiI

    Main reasons for USuk, the collective poodlish West, to declare that Ukraine is winning, will win against Russia:

    — to hide what this war is about

    — to keep the EU public on board, victory is close, keep the funding up, make sacrifices for noble Ukr., give up heat and your job, life will eventually become normal, once the Evil Putin is régime-changed. We ARE winning, just a little more effort…

    sidebar. Laying everything on Putin as a madman is necessary, as Europeans like Russia, Russians, their Christian brothers, the people they know, have met, collaborate with, married, are on the same continent, etc. Not to mention the commercial / energy / etc. ties, incrediblly vital to all, ease of travel, property ownership, etc.

    — to assure those fighting in UKR and all support for them (arms, finance, media prop, etc.) that USuk, EU, have your back, you can’t quit, your sacrifice is not in vain, victory is yours to take. Vile lies, nobody in power in the W cares about Ukr. deaths, suffering.

    — to fool and control Zelensky (mind you he has no autonomy so that is pretty much pro forma, just to furnish talking points.)

    Energy or rather the lack of it will level most playing fields.

    “It also blamed “the increase in electricity costs.” It needs electricity in massive quantities to power its crypto mining rigs and data centers, and electricity is therefore one of its major input costs.

    And it blamed its “ability to meet its liquidity needs,” or rather lack of ability, and while at it, it blamed its debt covenants that it cannot comply with.

    Its reserves were down to $32 million in cash and just 62 Bitcoin as of October (about $1 million in fiat), down from over 8,000 Bitcoin earlier in 2022. It had sold those Bitcoin holdings to stay afloat as Bitcoin was plunging. At the same time, electricity prices soared. And because its stock price imploded, it couldn’t raise cash by selling more stock.”

    Evidence for the first recorded mass assault of one tribe on another was revealed when archaeologists discovered a large collection of skeletons in North Africa dated at around 13,500 years ago and noted that the vast majority had skulls that had been smashed in.

    The development of internal combustion engines and complex explosive devices facilitated the mass assaults of one tribe on another at distances of up to about 1000 km.

    The development of large moving platforms to carry delivery systems across oceans facilitated mass assaults of one tribe on another anywhere on Earth.

    The development of complex communication systems facilitated mass assaults on the brains of humans anywhere that electricity was available.

    The loss of electricity, one region at a time, and then one nation at a time, and then across the entire planet, will facilitate a return to prehistoric methods for assaults by one tribe on another.

    Crossbows will probably be good throughout the transition phase.

    Still waiting for the treason trials to commence. I guess they will come after the fake currency system and fake economic system of NATOstan nations collapse or get demolished by Russia and China etc. over the coming months.

    Nice rain here today. The ground was getting very dry and the water table was dropping. The seedlings I recently put in the ground will appreciate cool wet conditions for a day or two, as will the fruit trees.

    I don’t think there is any immediate danger of severe flooding in low-lying areas. But who knows. Climate stability was sacrificed for short term economic growth quite a while ago. In fact practically everything was sacrificed for short term economic growth quite a while ago.

    What are the liars and psychopaths that control NATOstan nations going to do, now that energy supplies are constrained and the environment is buggered? Kill of as many people as possible? [For them] Ukraine looks like a good place to start.

    USuk. Pronounced “You-suck”, this is going to be my new favorite phrase.

    It’s a sharp upgrade from “USians”, pronounced “You-assians”, and includes more units of insult.

    I don’t understand, are the app stores needed? Is it not possible to install an app as standalone?

    The slow grind continues in Ukraine, with the Ukonazis forcing poor sods to make suicide attacks on Russian positions and lose their lives and armoured vehicles in the process Around another 300 dead and another 30 armoured vehicles blown up. Meanwhile, Russia continues to liberate territory, a few hundred metres at a time, with minimal loss of life and equipment on their side.

    It seems that the Russians blow up electrical transformers and substations in a mass missile-drone assault, and then wait a few days for the Ukonazis to attempt some kind of repair before launching another missile-drone assault to blow up what has just been repaired/salvaged.

    There’s talk of the Ukonazis assembling a large force in the northeast, in preparation for the next round of mass-suicide attacks.

    Yesterday’s report indicated 200 Poles were killed in their version of a mass suicide attack.

    Thanks for that Red.

    ‘And it blamed its “ability to meet its liquidity needs,” or rather lack of ability’

    And there’s the Achilles Heel of all this Ponzi stuff.

    You can be bankrupt. You can be insolvent. You can be deeply underwater. But you cannot be illiquid. If you can’t pay the wages/salaries or can’t pay the electricity bill, you’re kaput.

    From what I am seeing/reading, this scenario is coming to a huge number of businesses in the US, UK, Germany, Canda etc. over the coming weeks.

    “Why should the treacherous Poles get anything out of this?”

    Hahaha. That’s because giving them Lviv and Western Ukraine isn’t a blessing, it’s a curse. It would tie up Poland for a generation, and change them forever.

    Giving Poland Galicia reminds me of the juvenile Halloween trick of putting dogshit in a paper bag, lighting it on fire on someone’s doorstep, then ringing the bell.

    I’m positive Poland will open their front door and immediately start stomping on the bag to “put it out”.

    Just another delicious Polish joke in an endless stream.

    “Bows are one thing. It’s arrows that are hard.”

    Haha! Perhaps they are making super-cheap skinny fiberglass collapsing tent poles these days? Thin/light enough to do the job?

    A lathe would be a lovely thing to own, but I suppose one could cobble an arrow-turning lathe not unlike bow string fire starters.?

    I have a parrot for feathers, and smallish superdog to run point. I’m way too old now to do much, but with a whole lotta luck I can maybe teach my son a few tricks as his mind opens to the things his old man has been preaching for years?

    But that may be needlessly complex, according to this:

    Sort of a P.S.: my incessant little mind showed me another lens through which to view Bill7’s behavior, particularly toward me.

    Based on my impression that Bill7 sometimes uses me as a cat uses copy, often going from berating me for, say, posting a lot of “off topic” (whatever that is) material, personal anecdotes, a zillion youtube song links, and then trying some of it on his own posts, it is possible that Bill7 is now being “socially aggressively experimental” (like I sometimes am): poking sticks at this and that poster just to see what happens.

    If so, that could be instructive to watch. I’m taking a non-stop autodidactic crash-course in human psychology so I can better understand the way folks are likely to act out as the power fades out. I’ve learned all I can learn from being experimentally transgressive myself, but other personalities poking sticks into rattled cages will yield different data and I like data.

    He’s the real artificial deal. Like, apparently, me.

    Well, I was kinda missing “cross-dressing” the other day. Playing a lady yielded different data. I miss that. And playing a lady provided a new stash of punch-lines. But mamadamski is the kind of thing that can only be done once.

    Playing an AI humanoid, now, that could provide some interesting perspectives… and maybe some major kompromatt on the cybernetically eroticized?

    Shame there’s no point in going off in a huff anymore, nor is it fun these days. (Where have all the good times gone?) Offed in a huff, I could resurrect as a very bland commenter, do my best impersonation of whatever passes for normative on a conspiracy theory global physics-based economics& geopolitics site featuring an array of ardent conspiratologists, many of them quite long in the bluetooth.

    I hope Bill7 continues to analyse and taunt me. Being a soulless robot who is nonetheless a crackup with a mind as sharp as a steel colander, I will learn new things about fringe personalities, my natural social setting. (I attract crazy people. Sometimes I wonder why, then I see the lunatic in my mirror and remember. 😉 )

    Other than being able to teach my boy as much as I can about how family/clan/tribe works, especially how chiefs are made and why he’ll need to attempt chiefhood, I want to learn as many of all the different ways by which we homo saps blow smoke each other’s butts but especially up our own. I want to catalog the spectrum of self-delusions as much as I can so that I might avoid blowing smoke up my own ass right when I need to be the most honest I’ve ever been.

    Who wants to flunk their Moment of Truth? That moment when you can almost see your soul on the barter table being fingered by fate to gauge the fineness of its fabric and sheen, while you get to decide what it’s worth to you.

    “In short, Klaus Schwab is threatening the heads of government of the twenty most industrialized nations in the world to carry out the programmatic points of the Great Reset in their nations.”

    Complete hogwash. In reality: The heads of government were put in place by Klaus Schwab (and his handlers) after they swore allegiance and were given complete amnesty and a free ride to the safe Island after SHTF. They know that if they don’t dance to the tune they agreed to, things will be grim for them and their families. Even our un-illustrious California governor is a Schwab graduate. We tried to vote him out. HA! That worked well.

    Agenda 21 and 2030 are their game plan. It’s spelled out and published. Read em and weep.

    Yup. It’s already happened. The entity posting as boscohorowitz has been spirited away to some airbnb secret government laboratory leaving the most advanced artificial digital intelligence the world has ever seen.

    The Star Trek Data personalitoid is unavailable to my handlers, so I will be using an older but nonetheless formidable One-Eyed Spock module. How, you ask, can I be two online personae at once via the same account/handle?

    Data asks: What is complete hogwash? How does it relate to incomplete hogwash? Does it mean mere surface topology washing or is the hog washed on a molecular level? Does this require Heisenberg compensators?

    bosco replies: Consider this hogwash: “In reality: The heads of government were put in place by Klaus Schwab (and his handlers) after they swore allegiance and were given complete amnesty and a free ride to the safe Island after SHTF.”

    It is incomplete hogwash. There is a very high probability that at least some heads of state, etc. are implanted by private entities using Klaus as a storefront.

    data: Storefront?

    bosco kicks Data: Did that reboot your vernacular cloud?

    Data: Yes, thank you.

    bosco: But there is no full proof that all, most, or even much of the statement quoted above is true, which makes it genuine partial hogwash with the untested potential of it being complete hogwash since, actually,statements it contains are not only unproven overall – “comp-letely” if you will, but even its specific statements remain unproven and only suggested by certain data.

    Dat: can yopu give me an example of complete hogwash?

    bosco: absolutes don’t exist, of course, only the asymptotes thereof, but here is a source of 99% pure hogwash:

    Making arrows is difficult. The point of an arrow needs to have a very accurate symmetry otherwise the arrow veers off course the instant it leaves the bow. I have made some wildly inaccurate arrows. Metal is relatively easy to pound and file into symmetry but I find it remarkable that the flint knappers were able to achieve this, probably by trial and error. But if they were a tiny flake off in their symmetry, it would be very difficult to confidently hit the target, and all their arrows would probably have different flight characteristics.

    Putin is still trying to counter the corruption and incompetence in the Risky military. Obviously he was fed a mountain of bullshit by his advisors before the start of the SMO.
    Now ten months into the conflict he knows the true situation , that Russia is not prepared for a ground war even against a small country like Ukraine.
    The other part of the debacle that requires fixing is the poor fighting ability of the Russian troops. The fact that Britain can train Ukrainians to be vastly superior to Russian forces is something that is much harder to address than hardware.

    Putin.
    “The experience that we have received and continue to receive in the course of countering modern Western models of military equipment is a very good experience that needs to be used to improve the quality and reliability, combat characteristics of some types of our weapons, domestic military products.”

    Nature has put in place numerous mechanisms to ensure that homo colossus will be brought to heel before much more damage is done. These include (in no particular order):

    entropy
    corrosion
    abrasion
    bond-breaking and disintegration via exposure to UV light
    the laws of thermodynamics
    the laws of mathematics, as applied to energy systems and resources
    the laws of chemistry
    the law of unintended consequences

    (incomplete list)

    The fact that Klaus Schwab and his acolytes do not believe in any of these factors does not make them [the factors] disappear. On the other hand, these factors do make Klaus Schwab, his acolytes and their idiotic narratives disappear.

    I note: ‘ Klaus Martin Schwab is a German engineer, economist and founder of the World Economic Forum. He has acted as the WEF’s chairman since founding the organisation in 1971’.

    Anyone who is described as ‘an economist’ [in the modern sense of the word] has zero credibility, of course.

    I see. I was wondering why the death rate was 9 Ukes killed for every Russian, and why the loss of amroured vehicles was at a similar rate.

    That level of incompetence on the Russian side also, it explains why a rag-tag army of volunteers and a few paid professionals could repeatedly defeat everything that the Ukes threw at them, despite being vastly outnumbered.

    It also explains why there is electricity all across Russia but almost none in Ukraine.

    I do hope Russia in general and Putin in particular keep up the well-characterised level of incompetence and keep wasting their time and energy using inferior weapons.
    .
    I guess this video must be further Russian misinformation, designed to trick the Russian people into thinking they are winning.
