@Vietnam Vet: “TV BASED SCHOOLS”
May the gods help us. Like there isn’t too much TV already. Let’s add 6+ more hours a day.
TAE Summary is phenomenal. Each includes some comments that are literally lol. Such as the latest …
“– One should quarantine until negative; TAEers have always been negative and so never needed to quarantine”
How can someone not chuckle at that? So appreciated. Thank you!
@John Day: “We are brothers.” Ain’t we though? 🙂
I rent an apartment so currently have only a small raised bed garden. It is NOT growing well at all this year. We had 90s in May!!! (and june and july) I plant spinach, chard and beets (for multiple harvests of baby greens, no space to allow full size growth). My spinach bolted by the time it was a couple inches tall!
The problem here in upstate is that, yes, it gets hot earlier in the spring than it used to, which sounds good … BUT we have snow and heavy frost into our late-ish spring so you can’t plant many things too early … BUT … it gets too hot when the little ones are starting to grow and they can’t handle that level of heat. Did any of that make sense? (and just one opinion, btw)
Interesting twist in weather over the past 5-10 years.
@V Arnold: “A week in with record deaths (100+) and cases (10,000++) every day; it’s apparent Thailand screwed the pooch on controlling the virus…”
Please don’t think this. Whatever the sarscov-2 is or where it came from, it’s a respiratory coronavirus and there are many in existence. No matter the level of hubris humans attain, we really do not *control* a respiratory virus. Our best bet is to protect the vulnerable, use whatever is available for prophylaxis and early treatment to avoid the worst outcomes, and carry on with life.
Every place on this earth is going to face this virus at some point, and each place will come through the other side of it as best possible. That it’s Thailand’s turn? So turns the natural world …
Australia and New Zealand … keep forcing it back using closed [island] borders and harsh lockdowns over a few dozen cases popping up. I can’t see where that cycle ever ends, but I’m happy to be proved wrong on this.
@john day: I had a bear of a time mowing last week, too, here in upstate NY. Took me 3x as long as usual, and I stopped a few times just to give me and the mower a break from the frustration of damp, thick, heavy grass clogging up the works and making me work way harder in hot/humid weather. (and I don’t have your lot size to mow!)
@glacons: “Clotting has been a known issue with mRNA vaccines. So although ADE may indeed become a thing, right now the focus must be on the causes of today’s injuries. We should not misdirect people’s attention to potential future problems when we have enough right now.”
Agree. ADE *may* become a thing in the future, but since the wall of denial is so thick and high, let’s stick with what’s right in front of our faces and try to weaken that wall right now using known information.
People are suffering and dying within days of the vaxx. This needs to stop yesterday. Especially before more children are injected.
@Germ: how was your vacation? Welcome back!
@oros: I had to look up adrenochrome. Let’s hope not. 🙁
But I’m getting a bit long in the tooth now, and I can tell ya for sure that my stamina ain’t what it used to be. Wondering how these even-older-than-me oldies are pulling it off. A very small percentage of 80 year olds still going strong? Sure. But there are A LOT of them still pulling the strings. It isn’t natural at all. It most surely isn’t.
The value Doc Robinson brings to TAE conversations through analysis of statistics and medical studies cannot be overstated. Once again, thank you. Your time investment and ability to shed light is positively stellar.
@madam: “That immunity the guv gave to Big Pharma for covid vakzine is likely to twist around their neck like a garotte.”
I hope you’re correct on this. If you are, I’ll start collecting peacock feathers whenever I see them and personally make you a headdress. 😉
@madam: sobering pic. Yes, plenty of revisionist history going on around Fauci’s role in HIV/AIDS. How it is that so many 80 year olds who are major players in global propaganda are still so spry and industriously working is … curious. Only the good die young, I guess. (shrugs shoulders)
@mister: “That’s probably only the case in the big cities of the northeast …”
Now, now … I’m sure that’s the case in southern west coast big cities as well. Definitely Portland, Seattle. Maybe even some TX big cities, and Atlanta, and Chicago …
Certainly we NE people can’t be the only religious fanatics. 🙂
I wonder how some members of the gay community feel about this Fauci fanaticism. There were protests back during the AIDS epidemic and signs reading “Fauci Lied. People Died”. If I’m recalling that correctly?
Also, saw a comment online the other day that is worth contemplating …
“So … is “controlled opposition” the new term to replace “conspiracy theorist”??”
If people don’t trust the mainstream narrative, and also look for reasons not to trust anyone else because they could be “controlled opposition” or “conspiracy theorists”, what’s that leave?
I’m finally listening to the video, “A MANUFACTURED ILLUSION – DR DAVID MARTIN WITH REINER FUELLMICH”. So much info these days and real life gets in the way so I have to pick and choose my time investment, but I had housework to do today so listened while I worked.
Not sure why anyone would question Dr Martin because “he wears a bow tie” or for any reason, really. He cites specific patent numbers, details what the patents were for, ties that patent information and the patent filers in with what has taken place over the past 18 months. Until someone offers a well-documented, rational argument against what Dr Martin is presenting, I see no reason not to consider his information credible.
Not sure what we’ve come to when the MSM “experts” can say whatever they want without any evidence whatsoever, but we’re throwing stones at people with expertise and evidence who are presenting what they consider important. It’s all very sad.
And, by the way, people are TRYING. They’ve lost their jobs and their incomes. They’ve had their reputations ground into muck. They’ve alienated family and friends. They’ve been isolated and castigated. They’ve taken to the streets.
My god, what more can people do?
@kullervo: ” …we left the crooks and other scum of the Earth take over the positions of power ..”
I keep reading this everywhere these days. But absolutely no one explains just exactly how …
we allowed this!
we allowed this!
we allowed this!How exactly is it “we” peons allowed this? None of us voted? None signed petitions? None protested? None talked directly to politicians? None submitted opinion pieces to newspapers? None launched a website to raise the alarm?
What was our option? Should we have had an “Annie get your guns” moment and, what, stormed the, um, the local political offices?
I’m tired of the finger pointing. The corporations and lobbyists have owned DC for decades. There are literally studies proving this.
If you have a solid argument for how exactly “we” could have prevented this, I’m all ears.
@maxwell: “… she knew that governments lie to their people… brazenly, to the full extent of “we know they know we know they are lying”. But in the western so-called democracies this awareness is still absent in the general polity, and violently suppressed.”
Really well done – making the connection between your “real life” experience with … whatever this is that’s going on now …
Thank you.
@John Day: Thank you. Good posts and links.
The cacophony in the global public square is getting so loud it’s hard to think straight. 😉
So … if/when a clash comes it won’t be between vaxxed and unvaxxed. Many vaxxed are seniors who are not capable of/interested in strong arming people into getting vaxxed … and a lot of the remaining vaxxed are wusses who couldn’t rise to more than a nasty tweet if they wanted to.* There are also plenty of vaxxed who don’t care if everyone gets vaxxed, they just aren’t sure what actions they can take to curtail the BS.
No, the clash will be between the unvaxxed (and vaxxed who don’t agree with mandatory vaxx) … and the “deep state”, whatever that is, in whatever form it takes, in whichever country it’s in.
Or the whole darn thing dies a whimpering death and is conveniently buried so no one remembers … like Epstein, Cuomo, baby Biden, Dr D’s list from earlier today, etc., etc., etc, etc.
* Not seeing a lot of rugged individualists in the pro-everyone-get-vaxxed crowd who are wearing double masks whenever they come out from under their desks after they’ve finished their latest zoom meeting.
Re: VAERS deaths. Although correlation is not causation, why no effort to determine cause? Why hasn’t a full autopsy been performed on every single person who died within “x” days of receiving a jab? They’ve had 7 months now to medically evaluate what is happening to these people and have done nothing. Absolutely nothing. There is no excuse for this. None. I’m beginning to appreciate Karl D’s level of anger.
@darkmatter: PS … in using the word “argue” I didn’t intend to call out this specific instance in these ongoing comments. My apologies to you. I’m sorry.
But we’ve been “debating” (is that a better word?) this topic on TAE for months. Time we stop debating, stand up, just say wtf hill it is we are willing to die on. Is this one it? Idk. But when it comes to taking a stand, the time for debate is over.
Madamski will jump in here at some point, I’m sure. Btw, madam, I identify as a dudette. 😉
@darkmatter: “I dislike poor logic in support of something …”
But the “forced narrative” (aka MSM) is doing exactly that on a second-by-second basis, all day every day. Why not argue with them instead?
@oros: I read about the Harvard study on the VAERS – it was done back in 2010-2012 or so, I believe? The CDC itself contracted with Harvard to perform the study. When the CDC saw the results the study was placed on a shelf to gather dust. No actions were taken.
Perhaps there are others on here who recall that study and saved a link?
@oxy: hello, Nathan. Nice to meet you. 🙂 I think you’re on to something with today’s post. I’ll spend time contemplating. Thank you.
Ok, enough.
I’ll apologize upfront because I’ve had a couple vodka & tonics so I’m mouthy. But this from Dark Matter …
“The covid risk vs. vaccine risk analysis is unfair. The covid risk calculator factors in age, comorbidities, etc. while the VAERS calculation does not. You would need a similar VAERS calculator to tell you what the risks of dying of the vaccine are for an apple to apples comparison.”
Why are we even arguing about this? You want the flipping vaxx? So go ahead and get it. As far as I can tell, no one is telling you not to.
I don’t want the vaxx. So just flipping leave me alone. Why should anyone tell me I have to get it?
We’re spending time on ridiculous circular arguments. The vaxx doesn’t prevent anyone from getting infected. It doesn’t prevent anyone from spreading infection. I’m not saying that, the manufacturers are saying that. It also has serious adverse events. You want to play the roulette wheel? Go ahead.
Leave those of us who will not get the vaxx alone. We’ll be fine without your HELP. Thank you.
Re: CJ Hopkins latest … I think he’s low when he figures only 25% of people aren’t “all in” on the so-called new normal. I gauge it to be higher. Mosey on down to rural areas where vaxx uptake is low and see how many people are “all in” on the new normal. (hint: it’s not “lack of info and access” that keeps rural people from participating in institutionalized medicine and the vaxx campaign …)
@Archie: well stated response to ezlxa, who presented some valid observations worth considering. Thank you.
@Archie: horrible. What criminal charge would that be? “Endangering the welfare …” or “Assault ..” or … ? Wth.
I had a serious, Matrix-level deja vu event take place yesterday. It was a minor little incident and I won’t bore everyone with a description, but every single detail of it was identical to an event I had already experienced, including the people involved, the moth, the location, what was said, etc., etc.
There are theories* that parallel realities exist in which different decisions made and actions taken formed alternate realities, each of which varies by some degree from the reality we’re “living in”.
I’m beginning to wonder if, due to the nature of energy and mass events, the advent of the coronavirus early last year caused us to slip into a parallel reality. One in which locking down, quarantining healthy people, shoving swabs up into sinuses, killing people by refusing to provide medical treatment, forcing experimental vaccinations on everyone, and blind acceptance and even cheering on of totalitarian government actions … is the accepted norm.
Some of us were jarred by the cognitive dissonance that resulted from the shift; others continued on with barely any notice.
Just a passing thought.
* the idea there are parallel realities is more realistic than the idea humans can, for example, live on mars
@democritus: then why are they called vaccines?
@phoenix: Although Dr D uses hyperbole to make a point, shootings are not just taking place in NYC. In Syracuse, near where I live, there are regular shooting and stabbing incidents, many have teens involved as both victims and perps. This is a national problem in our cities and not just the largest ones. Syracuse’s population is around 140,000. *Most* parts of the city are very poor – at one point Syracuse had one of the highest concentrations of poor minorities in the US. Not sure whether that’s the case anymore. The Syracuse city school district is in shambles – no one with even a modest level of resources will send their children there. Sad state of affairs. I think Dr D’s point is that WHAT WE HAVE DONE FOR DECADES DID NOT WORK. Time to try a little less “helping”. And I can’t say as I disagree.
