    Janet Daley is an American born Brit who writes for the Daily Telegraph.

    I had no idea. Oh well, the more wake-ups the merrier.

    RIM has also expressed concerns over climate change over the years, so it dismays me to see him and others now rejecting such concerns.

    I do not. I merely recognize that we need to ask questions again that have not been asked for a long time. The climate issue has become “The Science”, and that is no longer a valid point after Fauci.

    You could argue that autopsies should be obligatory for all these sudden deaths in young(er) people. But then you realize there is no capacity to do so many autopsies.

    @Dr.D: This is not possible: “Dutch farms use only a half-gallon of water to grow about a pound of tomatoes, while the global average is more than 28 gallons.”

    Not in soil. But how about hydroponics?

    Raul,
    Convinced of the value your blog delivers. However, given the PayPal controversy recently I have left that service. Have you any other avenue to transfer support funds from Canada?

    For now, Patreon.

    I know Spirit in the Sky. Never heard Nina Hagen’s version. She misses it almost completely, BUT she uncovers the rock -guitar- that’s in it. Which Greenbaum did not. His is more of a mantra. Which is fine too.

    No, it’s not about commenters

    Rembrandt was 17/18. Practicing shiny objects..

    Before, painters would paint “realism”, trying to paint what an object looked like up close. Rembrandt said: that’s not what you see at a 1 meter or 3 meter or 10 meter distance. Then you only see a smudge of light.

    Revisionism 2022:

    “It doesn’t matter to Germany whose rocket fell in Poland, in any case, Russia is to blame, because it attacked Ukraine” – Olaf Scholz

    Sounds like an Alec Baldwin defense move.

    So if mRNA can’t get in there and if it can it can’t do anything, how does it also get in there and reverse transcribe into DNA?

    I am wondering that too, and many other angles. Where’s Doc Robinson when you need him?

    Zero,

    Europeans pay twice three time:
    1. billions for “True Solidarity”, (operating Uke budget)
    2. double energy prices
    3. support for millions of refugees

    3: True enough. Europe may be completely overrun this winter. Maybe Erdogan can release a few million more on top of Ukraine just for the fun of it.

    “A massively unpopular President, record inflation, a border in shambles, and yet…we’re just barely going to take the House?”

    It used to be normal for a ruling party to lose 50-60 seats in the midterms. Today, very few change sides, though the reasons to do so are glaringly obvious. That paints the picture of US politics. And media. Walking talking dead.

    How crazy will they make it? Well..

    “Putin’s war in Ukraine “is a reason to act faster” on climate change, UK PM Rishi Sunak tells climate summit.

    Sunak cares no more for climate change than your pet hamster, but hey, going for the easy points…

    We’re moving from Ukr to climate just to keep people docile.

    in reply to: Debt Rattle November 5 2022 #120260

    One week after Musk took over, and 4 days before the midterms, Biden accuses Twitter of “spewing lies all across the world”. I don’t recall Biden having said this before, but he must have, right?! Because content moderation hasn’t changed at all yet, as per Musk.

    Oh, and 60 orgs call on advertizers to withdraw their money. But what exactly made Twitter toxic?

    TT

    There is no way this is not coordinated.

    I’m not going to post the Pelosi & DePape trash on my own blog(s)…

    Ha ha, but TAE is enough of a dump to put it here…

    aspnaz,

    The info is confusing at best. But Paypal was all Ebay at first.

    The Street, in an article that doesn’t even mention Musk:
    In fact, PayPal wasn’t even named PayPal when it was founded in 1998 by technology entrepreneurs Peter Thiel and Max Levchin. Instead, the company’s initial name was Confinity, a company founded on the premise of low-cost, almost effortless digital payments for consumers and businesses.
    https://www.thestreet.com/technology/history-of-paypal-15062744

    But Britannica says:
    In 1999 Zip2 was bought by the computer manufacturer Compaq for $307 million, and Musk then founded an online financial services company, X.com, which later became PayPal, which specialized in transferring money online. The online auction eBay bought PayPal in 2002 for $1.5 billion.

    This was in the October 27 Debt Rattle. Sometimes I wonder whatever people do here.

    Here’s a good rundown by Chris Hedges on the leadup to war:

    “The West has been baiting Moscow for decades. I reported from Eastern Europe at the end of the Cold War. I watched these militarists set out to build what they called a unipolar world — a world where they alone ruled.

    I can’t get RT on desktop, but I can on my phone. Most RT links I use are from Azerbaycan, which duplicates most articles.

    The weirdest headline I’ve seen in a long time, this from BBC:

    Dozens of people in Halloween crowds treated for cardiac arrest in nightlife area of South Korean capital, Seoul

    This must be the last time they got him in a straightjacket. As they say, it all went downhill from here. What a man. RIP.

    Oh yeah, Dali was 14 when he painted that. We’ve had a few of his early works recently, but this one looks especially strong.

    It’s insane, because supermarket prices are not very different between the two. I know from experience. Anyway, shoot. Minimum wages where you are.

    in reply to: Debt Rattle October 21 2022 #118998

    I read that minimum wage in Holland will rise by 10.15% on Jan 1 2023, to €12.40 per hour. That’s €446.40 per week, about €1,800 per month.

    Greece: For general workers, from €29.62 to €31.85 per day and €663.00 to €713.00 per month.

    I wonder what the situation is where all of you live.

    I was just wondering about this. Not that high for a PM, but it’s 45 years for just 45 days. She’ll surely collect another allowance for her time in Parliament too.

    Truss

    in reply to: Debt Rattle October 19 2022 #118817

    Harris did not say that. Someone put it up as a spoof on Facebook and people started passing it around.

    How do we know?

    in reply to: Debt Rattle October 19 2022 #118816

    I really like Dali’s self-portrait.
    It’s not like al the others.

    He was 15. Maybe that’s why

    Germ,

    Now combine that attitude -despite all the adverse events reported- with the CDC trying to get the mRNA on the yearly kids’ vaccine list though they derive zero benefit from it and tons of potential damage. And then see Bourla above saying it was “they”, not he, who promoted it. The future’s not getting any brighter.

    Mail from the new ad servicer we got in, 10 days ago:

    “It’s come to our attention that this website has been flagged by half of the partners we have tried to connect, including a couple of our major ones, that they consider this site fraud. It’s not just because of the content, which some of them could consider misinformation, but because 98% of your traffic is direct which would imply part of it is bought. I’m really sorry, but we have no control over this or ability to change it.  Given your experience, and the fact that lower end partners are the only ones willing to connect, I think it might be best for us to part ways.”

    We’ve tried 5,6 of these companies over the past 2 years or so, and keep running into the same shit. I am getting tired of it. No ads would be great, but we can’t afford that. I’m already not promoting TAE with SEO etc., because at some point someone will try to delete/ban/censor us, but this is starting to get out of hand. I want no-one to tell me what to say.

    And you know, I’m not promoting child abuse or other weird stuff that’s all the rage today, I simply give people a different view of the world than their media do(es).
