    I agree with the psychologist but holy shit I wanna rub it in their faces. We haven’t even approached the energy issues let alone the current medical tyranny and people are just being assholes about unvaxxed. A clients husband won’t even remain in the same house when I turn up to garden and drives to their other property and will no longer refer to me by name or in the first person.

    Paul Gauguin Bathing, Dieppe 1885

    The Gauguin is okay…but what really grabbed me was: Beethoven ‘Ode to Joy’ flashmob.. 🎶…
    Zounds! What a rush…
    Brought me to tears; flashmobs tend to do that…to me…emotional person that I am…
    Looking at the gathering crowd, even the children, were taken by the upswell of life…
    It’s magic, the little bit we can still grasp…
    May the gods help us if we ever lose that…

    Hear ya oxy,

    Some serious beatitude from down under. I thought it was worth capturing what Ros Nealon-Cook said in her tweet that Raul posted.

    “[…] They are actually frozen and we need to have compassion and empathy towards them and be there when they find out, because they are going to find out with either what we are saying today or they find out because of what’s coming. We have to be very compassionate…Please understand why, why we’re all like understanding our own psychology and understand how you ended up where you are because that is wisdom. That’s the most compassionate place to be and that’s how we will resolve this as well.”

    G’day mates.

    Do people really believe there was no flu last year?

    Yeah, pretty much, I do believe that. For the first time in years I did not get sick at all — not even a cold. This is a big deal for me because I never get “just a cold”. It’s always a cold (or flu), followed by sinus infection, followed by bronchitis and weeks of coughing. Usually multiple times a year. But since February 2020 I have not been sick at all. And lots of people I know have had the same experience. Masks, sanitizer, distancing, regular hand washing, and more sleep have all made a huge difference to me — like night and day. I really do believe that the flu all but disappeared in Korea last year.

    Why Shortages Are Permanent: Global Supply Shortages Make Fantastic Financial Sense, Charles Hugh Smith
    The era of abundance was only a short-lived artifact of the initial boost phase of globalization and financialization.
    Global corporations didn’t go to all the effort to establish quasi-monopolies and cartels for our convenience–they did it to ensure reliably large profits from control and scarcity. Not all scarcities are artificial, i.e. the result of cartels limiting supply to keep prices high; many scarcities are real, and many of these scarcities can be traced back to the stripping out of redundancy / multiple suppliers of industrial essentials to streamline efficiency and eliminate competition. Recall that competition and abundance are anathema to profits.

    John Michael Greer is very much in his element here. Here are some of his insights.
    That Untraversed Land
    If you want people to put up patiently with long hours of drudgery at miserably low wages, subject to wretched conditions and humiliating policies, so that their self-proclaimed betters can enjoy lifestyles they will never be able to share, it’s a really bad idea to make them stop work and give them a good long period of solitude, in which they can think about what they want out of life and how little of it they’re getting from the role you want them to play. It’s an especially bad idea to do it so that they have no way of knowing when, or if, they will ever be allowed to return to their former lives, thus forcing them to look for other options in order to stay fed, clothed, housed, and the like.​..

    ​ So there’s a labor shortage, and it’s concentrated in exactly those jobs that are most essential to keeping the economy running. These are also the jobs most likely to have lousy pay and worse conditions. This isn’t accidental. It unfolds from one of the most pervasive and least discussed features of contemporary economic life: the metastatic growth of intermediation.
    ​ ​Let’s unpack that phrase a bit. The simplest of all economic exchanges takes place between two people, each of whom has something the other wants. They make an exchange, and both go off happy. If what one of the people brings to the exchange is labor, and the other person brings something the first person wants or needs in exchange for labor, we call that “employment,” and the first person is an employee and the second an employer, but it’s still a simple exchange. So long as there’s no overt or covert coercion involved on either side, it’s a fair trade.
    ​ ​What happens as a society becomes more complex, however, is that people insert themselves into that transaction and demand a cut. Governments—national, local, and everything in between—tax income, sales, and everything else they can think of. Banks charge interest and fees on every scrap of money that passes through their hands. Real estate owners drive up the cost of land so that they can take an ever larger share of the proceeds in rent and mortgage payments. Then you have a long line of other industries lobbying government for their share of the take.​..

    ​ Ultimately, of course, employment itself becomes a form of intermediation. By and large you aren’t hired by people who want what you produce, you’re hired by a corporation that inserts itself between you and the purchaser, takes most of the money, and gives you a pittance, while directing a big share to managerial staff. Since the corporation is also subject to intermediation, other shares go to governments, banks, and a whole ecosystem of other intermediaries who insert themselves into the same transaction. In the end, you get a small fraction of the value of your work, and that fraction has been shrinking steadily with each passing year.
    ​ ​There’s some history behind that. The spectacular growth of intermediation in modern times became possible for two reasons. The first was that fossil fuels made it possible for the labor of a single person to produce more wealth than ever before in human history. The second was that fossil fuels also enabled the world’s industrial nations to take over and exploit more of the planet than any previous empire in recorded history, first through conquest and colonialism, and later on through manipulative economic arrangements that left other countries notionally independent while they were being drained of wealth to support the industrial nations.
    ​ ​The impact of these factors on economic life is almost impossible to overstate. Before the coming of the industrial era, it took on average the productive labor of ten people to support one person in an economic role that didn’t produce necessary goods or services.​..

    ​ The difficulty is that the torrents of cheap abundant energy that made that sort of metastatic intermediation possible depended all along on the breakneck exploitation of nonrenewable resources. Now fossil fuels are not so cheap as they once were, nor so abundant. There’s very little slack left in the fossil fuel sector—as current shortages and price spikes are making very clear—nor are renewable energy sources able to pick up the slack effectively—as current shortages and price spikes are making equally clear.​..

    ​ All this imposes an existential challenge to the economy of intermediation, and to the millions upon millions of well-paid jobs that depend on intermediation. That challenge first began to bite in the 1980s, and it was met by driving the working classes into poverty and misery. It bears repeating and remembering that half a century ago in the United States, one adult with a high school education and a working class job could support a family of four in relative comfort.​..

    ​ The difficulty, of course, is that you can only take that so far before it’s no longer worth anyone’s while to do those poorly paid jobs on which the whole system depends. Here in the United States, we’ve reached that point, and not just for employees. Go to any town in flyover country and walk down the streets, past the empty storefronts where businesses used to flourish. There are millions of people who would love to start their own business, but it’s a losing proposition in an economy in which governments, banks, and property owners demand so large a cut that most small startup businesses can’t break even. The same is equally true, of course, for employees, whose wages no longer even pay the basic costs of getting by in today’s America.​..

    ​ Thus the economy of intermediation is strangling the economic activity on which it survives. To change that would require the people whose jobs depend on intermediation to accept a drastic and permanent loss of status, influence, and wealth, and the number of them who will accept that loss willingly can doubtless be counted on the fingers of one foot…

    ​ ​But it’s the quiet dissolution of working class employment, the recognition by the people who keep the economy running that they have better things to do than prop up a system that treats them as disposable components, that strikes me as most important here and ​​now.

    ​ ​Many of them are finding work in the underground economy. That’s a huge economic sector these days. How many people make a living doing work outside ordinary employment and getting paid “under the table,” as the phrase is, is for obvious reasons a hard question to answer, but it’s quite possibly in the tens of millions. Working in the underground economy is an effective way to get out from under the burden of intermediation, so that both parties in an economic transaction can keep most or all of the value they exchange. That’s going to become even more significant a fraction of the economy in the years ahead.

    ​ ​In a declining economy, one person’s productive labor can no longer support the vast teetering structure of intermediation that’s been heaped on top of it. As decline proceeds—and as we have seen, it will proceed for many years to come—so will the contraction in what each person’s labor can support. If we’re lucky, the decline will bottom out before it gets down to the medieval level—some of our scientific and technological achievements are potentially sustainable, and might keep economic life above the sheer subsistence level if they’re preserved and deployed in time—but in any possible future, the great majority of people will be producing goods and services for their own use and for that of their neighbors, rather than laboring for the benefit of the vast and unsustainable government, corporate, and institutional juggernauts of our day.

    ​ I opened with these two pieces because​ where we might go and how we might get there seem to be questions that I should personally work on, at street level, not a lofty perch. Right now, for the next 3 weeks, I am perched in a public health clinic, a Federally Qualified Health Center, which began in 1970 as “The People’s Free Clinic” in a church basement across the street from the UT campus. I remember going by there as a student, and seeing people waiting outside the basement steps for their friends. A friend of mine at the co-op where I lived, Sam, was proud to go there. There is a black and white photo of the volunteer staff in that basement one day in the 1970s, with some of their kids and babies; one fellow not wearing a shirt that day. I knew some of those people, and I know one of the babies. She’s a Nurse, now.
    The clinic, now in a very expansive, open and expensive new building, is effectively an arm of the federal government, and compliance is far more important to the survival of the clinic as an entity, than is taking care of any particular patient. It has become incorporated into a nationwide compliance bureaucracy, even as it has professed it’s earlier ideals, with earnest countenance..
    There is no way out of this kind of success, not that I can see. It is what has happened to medicine. I cannot go see people for free, or what they can pay, because I would make about what a teacher makes, or less, and I would be breaking so many laws and regulations, that I would be a criminal for my efforts. I did something like this with support from Luling, Texas from 1992-1994. It was the hardest I ever worked. They paid 2 office employees and gave me half a mobile building for a clinic. I did hospital and ER work and delivered babies and did c-sections, and made what Jenny had made as a first through third year teacher. Texas Medicaid reliably paid me $19 per clinic visit and about $560 per baby delivered. Individuals and most insurance (Medicare and commercial) typically just failed to pay me.
    Those were the good days. They are over. I’m older, too.
    I am about to work the last 3 weeks before the vaccine mandate takes effect November 1, 2021. I am not seeing any job postings for unvaccinated doctors, and any place that is hiring now is in the “intermediation” business, and needs doctors to crank patients through the line, one-problem-per-visit, as if that’s how people’s needs are met. I’ve never been able to do that, and I’m sort of an old-dog at this point; unlikely to learn that trick.
    Jenny is still working as a school librarian. I have vegetable gardening, the Yoakum homestead, meditation/prayer and am assessing and chronicling the patch of history we are navigating together. I’m a good doctor, but without a format in which to legally practice medicine.
    I’ll see if a practice opportunity presents itself I’ll work on vegetable gardening systems for central Texas, and on “the economy” at a personal and local scale, with as little “intermediation” as possible.

    How is the Davos World Economic Forum involved in the coronavirus pandemic?​ …
    ​ ​First, the WEF was, together with the Gates Foundation, a sponsor of the prescient “Event 201” coronavirus pandemic simulation exercise, held in New York City on October 18, 2019 – the same day as the opening of the Wuhan Military World Games, seen by some as “ground zero” of the global pandemic. China itself has argued that US military athletes may have brought the virus to Wuhan.
    ​ ​Second, the WEF has been a leading proponent of digital biometric identity systems, arguing that they will make societies and industries more efficient, more productive and more secure. In July 2019, the WEF started a project to “shape the future of travel with biometric-enabled digital traveler identity management”. In addition, the WEF collaborates with the ID2020 alliance, which is funded by the Gates and Rockefeller foundations and runs a program to “provide digital ID with vaccines”. In particular, ID2020 sees the vaccination of children as “an entry point for digital identity.”
    ​ ​Third, WEF founder Klaus Schwab is the author of the book COVID-19: The Great Reset, published in July 2020, which argues that the coronavirus pandemic can and should be used for an “economic, societal, geopolitical, environmental and technological reset”, including, in particular, advancing global governance, accelerating digital transformation, and tackling climate change.
    ​ ​Finally, the WEF has been running, since 1993, a program called “Global Leaders for Tomorrow”, rebranded, in 2004, as “Young Global Leaders”. This program aims at identifying, selecting and promoting future global leaders in both business and politics. Indeed, quite a few “Young Global Leaders” have later managed to become Presidents, Prime Ministers, or CEOs (​Hey, there are lots of neoliberal prime ministers on that list, names we know, and Bill Gates, too​).

    “Masks, sanitizer, distancing, regular hand washing, and more sleep have all made a huge difference to me — like night and day.”

    What if it was just people not going to work/out/school when they were sick, like people always should have been doing? I’ve worked in office building in a major city most of my life, people showed up sick for work all the time.

    I used to get sick fairly regularly, but then started doing a better job washing my hands after my commute (a 30 minute commute on a subway in one of the biggest US cities). For several years I didn’t get sick after that. No masks, no sanitizer, no distancing, just became more aware of touching my face, and started washing my hands with soap when I got to the office, and after the bathroom, eating, going outside, etc. Reduced my sickness by 90%+.

    Any doctor in New Delhi would take ivermectin based treatment these days. They are completely familiar with it.​
    NEW DELHI, Oct 8 (Reuters) – Merck & Co’s (MRK.N) experimental antiviral drug molnupiravir has not shown “significant efficacy” against moderate COVID-19, a source with the Drug Controller General of India said.​..
    ​ ​Aurobindo Pharma Ltd wants to discontinue a late-stage trial of molnupiravir in moderate COVID-19 patients, the regulator’s expert committee said on Friday.
    “There is no significant efficacy against moderate COVID and the effective efficacy is towards mild cases,” the source said on condition of anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the discussions.
    ​https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/merck-drug-less-effective-against-moderate-covid-india-regulatory-source-2021-10-08/

    Ivermectin is so much safer than Tylenol.
    ​ ​As it turns out, all the scientists and doctors who insisted that Merck’s “revolutionary” COVID drug molnupiravir is extremely safe weren’t faithfully adhering to “the science” after all. Because according to a report published Thursday by Barron’s, some scientists are worried that the drug – which purportedly cut hospitalizations in half during a study that was cut short – could cause cancer or birth defects.​ ​
    ​ ​Dr. Shuntai Zhou, a scientist at the Swanstrom Lab at UNC, said “there is a concern that this will cause long-term mutation effects, even cancer.”
    ​ ​Zhou says that he is certain that the drug will integrate itself into the DNA of mammalian hosts. “Biochemistry won’t lie,” he says. “This drug will be incorporated in the DNA.”
    ​ ​Merck hasn’t yet released any data from its animal studies, but the scientists believe that it would take long-term studies to show that the drug is truly totally safe.

    Manipulating the data

    “ The publication was released by the Israeli Public Emergency Council on October 5 and distributed in Israel and abroad. And then something unexpected happened: within 24 hours from the release, the airport positive cases entry history was re-written by the Ministry of Health, drastically changing the vaccination status of the daily confirmed cases going backward over a period of months.

    “For example (as can be seen it in the screenshots below, released by the council), if originally on a given day there were 118 vaccinated confirmed cases vs 242 unvaccinated – it suddenly became 10 vaccinated vs. 350 unvaccinated,” Koren explains. “That is, blatant changes, which our examination shows were made over months. They did not just ’round’ corners – but actually drastically re-wrote the whole history.”

    @ Raul – many thanks for the Beethoven flash mob…I’m inspired to use it for the music class I teach this afternoon. 🙂

    I welcome people realizing what is going on and working in concert to overthrow the parasitic class.
    I am also greatly concerned. There is great danger on all sides.

    Why?
    The other day Veracious Poet mentioned that “it is us vs. them.”

    This is not incorrect. However, I’ve heard the US government labeled “inverted totalitarianism” (prior to Covid)…one of the characteristics that made it different from usual totalitarianism is that our tyrants don’t name themselves. Oh, sure, we can presume Gates, Soros, the Rockefeller family, the Rothschilds, etc. are deeply involved. And we know who some of their lackeys are: Fauci, Walenski, Daszak. But…Biden? He’s a doddering old fool. The administrations of medical facilities? — most are beholden to a board, need their jobs, got jabbed themselves, etc. That doesn’t excuse them — but they are not our enemies, they did not frame this situation — they are lost.

    We can identify “us” as those who refuse the mask, refuse the shot…but everyone else IS NOT “they.”

    Oxymoron: “ A clients husband won’t even remain in the same house when I turn up to garden and drives to their other property and will no longer refer to me by name or in the first person.”

    The media, the political parties, et al., have been trying to divide the people for decades. It has been largely successful. My friends who “lean left” believe what the media tells them about people “on the right” because they don’t have any friends or family who “lean right.” They are scared of the Proud Boys, horrified by the “insurrection” of Jan. 6, have never met anyone who is “antifa,” and think Trump is the right’s supreme leader. I have family who “lean right” — in many cases, I am the only person they know who “leans left.” They share with me that although they are not racist that BLM is an evil organization that wants to destroy the nuclear family, that critical race theory is an abomination that will warp their children, that “the left” and the Democratic Party are attacking freedom.

    I am in the middle. It’s quite a muddle.

    Who is “they?”

    Tucker called it a few days ago (10/8/2021) when he stated that the real divide is authoritarianism.

    If we do not take a deep breath, step back and TALK with those who lean differently than ourselves, we run the risk of painting “them” bullseyes on the wrong people!

    Yes, there are a lot of fearful people, and it is really easy to see them as the enemy. Every single fearful person out there is a potential ally. Many others who are going along with the mainstream narrative are simply duped. Dupes are not the enemy. Dupes are not even “co-conspirators.” Like Jesus said on the cross, “Forgive them Father, for they know not what they do.” (Yup, I reveal my Christian roots.). I have so many left leaning friends who are scared and/or who are duped. I have so many right leaning family who are scared and/or who are duped. I love these people. They do much good in the world.

    This pandemic is a war of sorts — a war of the parasitical elites upon the rest of us. However, it is not a traditional war. It is not even a traditional guerrilla type war. Waging a typical war response or guerrilla response is not going to win this war. The true instigators are shielded behind layers of the fearful, the duped, and even further back we find only the lackeys. What we are truly fighting is the idea that “some are more equal than others” — that some have the right/ability to direct the human agenda to serve their own small interests to the detriment of the interests of everyone else. (“Enlightened self interest” is not a problem when one’s power does not extend very far beyond one’s self. Beyond the interest of self, there needs to be a balanced interest in the family/community — I’m not talking about where the family/community dictates to the individual, but where the individual works out for themself, on individual terms, how to engage with and support the family/community organism. The family/community organism thus takes on the characteristics of the sum total of these interactions.)

    When we feel threatened we want to fight/flee/freeze/fawn. When we are trapped, feeling that threat response and cannot act to correct the situation quickly, it wounds us psychologically. We must find ways to constructively use and discharge the threat response energy, to preserve our psychological well-being, that promotes the cause of freedom over authoritarianism, and that serves to dispel the fear of the frightened and the propaganda that binds the duped.

    This is not an easy thing to do. It is easier to paint a “them” bullseye and fight. But that pathway leads to inaccurate bullseyes, unnecessary “collateral damage,” and the weak, the vulnerable, and innocents will be harmed. Even more dangerous — down that path, we run the risk of using up all of our energy and ability fighting those who are not our enemies, and open ourselves up to losing the war and losing our freedom.

    We need to be our best selves. We need to be both savvy and wise. Yes, we must act to preserve our sanity, and yes, we must walk deliberately.

    This pandemic is a war of sorts — a war of the parasitical elites upon the rest of us.

    I agree with this. It seems to be primarily an information war presently to coerce and control but that will change quickly when the time is right

    Oops, that escalated quickly. Vaccinated now more likely than unvaccinated to get and spread COVID in the over 30 age group.

    Denninger another home run post:

    “Specifically, if the impairment is only toward Covid-19; that is, this is some sort of VEI specific to Covid, then the issue ends there. For those with natural (recovered) immunity they don’t care and absolutely should not get the jab; indeed, if you’re recovered and take them you may destroy your protection in part or whole and wind up susceptible to repeat infection you would otherwise not be hit with! If you do that you’re stupid and may well win a stupid prize.

    But the 900lb Gorilla is that the impairment may not Covid-19 specific. In other words the impairment may be immune system generalized, in which case those who took the jabs are screwed because that immune damage could be long-lasting or even permanent, yet the protection against serious outcomes is specific to Covid. So yes, you’re “safer” against a serious outcome even while screwing everyone else, but at the same time you are wildly more-susceptible to a severe or fatal outcome due to, for example, influenza.”

    Images not posting again. I wonder what I’ve done wrong or it’s the software.

    Some context on the Southwest situation. Not really a “sick out” but a convergence of events set in motion by HR and Corporate.
