This is what TDK sang earlier in the chat. I hear you, heard that tritone loud and clear. And it’s Friday.
This one is for zerosum, a bit of old Canadian humour from my early adulthood.
Have a good Sunday (and mine’s a dry Martini)
If one were to design a bioweapon, one capable of depopulating the planet, how would one go about designing it? Would it be potent and lethal, capable of reducing the population to the desired number within a short space of time? Or would you opt for the long game; slow and undetectable? Or (more importantly) if you wanted to get away with said plan, wouldn’t you want to remove all link to the product and the outcome, thus removing oneself from liability, (both moral and criminal)?
I am merely saying such things witnessing the almost unnoticeable uptick in death and disability around my work and social groups. I could cite anecdotal evidence but I’ve no doubt you have enough of these yourselves. Enough to convince 80% of the population of the entire world to pass on any more of the special sauce.
The fact that we are still “waiting” for confirmation of our worse fears is evidence of a similar type of eschatology that we might witness in regions of the middleast. While still remaining open to said outcome being a possibility, I would summise that the chances of this outcome occurring are low as it would be undesirable to the prior rhetorical thought experiment picturing oneself as the executioner of this kind of crime against humanity.
Play the long game, take names and then kick ass, would be my best approach to any kind of success in overcoming it.
Bibi and Joe -They are both full of shit
Bibi – we will continue until we are victorious. Because we are special.
Joe – I.. I… I… Sorry, I need the bathroom, I mean, no
@Oroborus – Isinbayeva would be in stitches if she saw a generously sized schlong photoshopped on to her Olympic leotard. Great show as always man, keep up the good work!
@DBS – glad that you made it through for the climax of Kali Yuga (Or could it be that the Mayans were off by 12 or so years?) At any rate, keep on keeping on and thanks for your contributions to discussions over here.
Jb-hb: regarding the 8.5mil sky chateau – it is a lovely gaff. I can’t but help thinking, whoever moves in there is going to do their best reenactment of Dennis Hopper in George Romero’s Land of the Dead
Cheers MPSK – Yeah, the British electoral system is as clear as mud, on the face of it, it doesn’t make much sense. As aspnaz states, proportional representation would be a good start… Dr. D and EoinW have also got some good criticism and insight as to how to improve it. But hey, we are just old people, shouting at clouds over here
60% voter turnout in the UK. It is clear that the electorate is disillusioned. 33% of the vote for Labour is less than Corbyn’s 40% back in 2019 but works against a Tory govt with only 22% of the vote.
Only 4 seats for Reform but check out the percentage who voted for them – equal to or higher than the amount that voted Lib Dem – around 14%. Lib Dem gets 61 seats with 12% of the vote. Reform gets 4 seats with 14% of the vote.
Confused? Welcome to the UK. Now you know a bit more about how we feel about politics and this probably explains the low voter turnout somewhat
I have noticed that the editors in wikipedia have deleted Gonzalo Lira’s entry, just as Gonzalo said wikipedia would do.
It would be a good idea to mirror his content on platforms not subject to censorship and editing. His memory deserves that much at the bare minimum.
Dr. D, I don’t know how you manage to knock it out of the park each and every day. Always a pleasure.
Apathy – is not a good look
I counted 14 circles but got distracted by the elephants and camels.
Salt water as a conductor is genius, whoever thought of that to generate electricity deserves some credit (providing it works, of course)
Ilargi, here’s to your tireless optimism and the courage to confront the truth. Here’s to a brighter future.
It’s not too difficult to conceive things improving considering the shit we’ve been through recently (9/11, Iraq, Afghanistan, 2008, Syria, TDS, C19, Ukraine, Gaza etc)
Stay cool friends of TAE
I am only a quarter of the way through ‘do you “believe” in climate change’ and scanned the rest – nice work AC, solid ground
@Mr. House – it appears that there is another angle which would leave Israel in a position of some power (well, economically and geopolitically)
Armstrong has written about the Ben Gurion Canal which has been in development since 1963 ” Declassified documents reveal that the US Department of Energy was planning to take extreme measures to make this canal possible. On July 1, 1963, a plan was outlined to create the Israeli Canal by detonating 520 underground nuclear explosions throughout the Negev Desert. “Such a canal would be a strategically valuable alternate to the present Suez Canal and would probably contribute greatly to the economic development of the surrounding area,” the declassified document stated.
The document notes that 130 of the 160 miles dedicated to the canal are “virtually unpopulated desert wasteland,” but the primary issue would be relocating those from the Gaza Strip. ”

My best guess is that Israel is not going to gain anything from this.
Bibi was following orders. In fact, it is a desperate move because if it fails (which it likely will) Israel will suffer hugely.In my mind, there is not much difference between the bush/Cheney Iraq campaign and the narrative that is being constructed around Iraq and Palestine. Axis of evil has already been resurrected. Terrorism has become common use demonization for middle-eastern sympathisers and the phrase the war on terror is likely due to be put back into common use again. Israel will legitimise this new narrative and it will be driven into the minds of all people in the western sphere of influence in order to take their attention off of a collapsing economy, increased mortality from the shots and the implementation of stage 2 of the great reset.
Ilargi – Alex and Alexander discuss an article in Time magazine as well as another from The Economist discussing Zaluzhny and elenski 5 days ago. I can recall reading something along similar lines posted around the same time. Hth

Hear here Oxy – I am in agreement with your assessment.
A Jewish Joke: “I received a letter addressed to ‘the Occupier’, so I sent it to Israel” – Alexei Sayle
Dr. D – you may be interested in reading this one from Pierre Kory – George Floyd did not die of a Fentanyl overdose
https://pierrekorymedicalmusings.com/p/george-floyd-did-not-die-of-a-fentanyl
“Although the American public is lied to about nearly everything at this point, the cause of Floyd’s death is not one of them. I should know as I was the medical expert who testified in his civil case.”
Worth a read, in my humble opinion.
Whoa, both Georgia and Bhutan have some next level numerical acrobatics going on just stating the number 57. Reminds me of the old English imperial money system that was being phased out when I was a nipper. Farthings, shillings, crowns etc although I have to admit I know nothing about Bhutanese ngultrums or Georgian Laris. You may miss your number in the queue when it is called out on the tannoy over there
Snarky Puppy was sounding great this summer. Thanks for the Knower Jb-hb!
@jb-hb I would suggest that the TAE debt rattles are a safe bet. I used to do what you have suggested, watching the downfall of western civ and being powerless to stop it I merely became “the witness”. Terabytes of data have been stored over the last two decades. I stopped due to complete exhaustion during 2021, I could not keep up with it. Good to hear that someone else has the same insurance policy. I’m sure (just as through similar periods in human history) the truth will out in the end, eventually.
Thanks to all contributors (and of course Ilargi) that make this site a valuable forum for discussion, thinking, mirth and vision. Salut
Glad to see TAE is back online.
Found this which may be of interest: Chris Hedges interviews Craig Murray re: Assange. “The ‘slow motion execution’ of Julian Assange”.
Professional Managerial Class – the type of people that were fooled into leaving planet Earth in Douglas Adams ‘Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy’ as they produced nothing of value
Regarding Gonzalo Lira, Brian Berletic (The New Atlas) has this to say: https://rumble.com/v346fdt-gonzalo-liras-attempted-escape-from-ukraine-whats-happening-and-how-to-help.html
There is no need to over think this issue in some sort of spy-vs-spy scenario. Doing so only serves to discredit Lira and his cause.
VP: This excellent album (Coisitas Buenas) by Paco De Lucia came out during the time of Napster. I remember those days well. There were many excellent recordings at that time, just as the rug was being pulled from under the recording industry’s feet
Best wishes to Germ in moving to Mexico!
When I was just a child I would spend time with my grandparents. My grandfather fought in world war 2 and he would often tell stories – but only those that were acceptable for the family to hear.
There were often black-and-white film of shelling on the screen on the TV before my mother would request that it were changed to something more appropriate for children. This was the newsreel which was ubiquitous at the time. As I child I found it boring but my mother used to complain that it was horrific. What was more horrific was the normality that the presenters and viewing public approached it with, as if the spectacle of WWII was a commonplace aspect of human nature.
It is the normalcy that our human bias’ creates that scares me the most.

Right now, I'm about to try to get out of Ukraine, and seek political asylum in Hungary.
Either I'll cross the border and make it to safety, or I'll be disappeared by the Kiev regime.
This is what's happened to me over the past three months.

No popups or redirects using e/os browser (e foundation operating system android). I tried using standard google android and with opera browser I got a popup when I clicked on today’s debt rattle. After this the page behaved normally and all subsequent popups were blocked.
Afktt – if it is as bad as you say it is, then there is nothing that we can do, according to this logic we have to wait until the world becomes uninhabitable and all life on earth will all just stop and die. This climate theory goes back to James lovelock and Gaia theory in the 1960’s. Still waiting for evidence of the huge destruction but my eyes and fairly well working brain has come to the conclusion that the planet we live on has been through much worse (volcanoes, earthquakes, the flipping of the poles, cosmic radiation, asteroids, you name it) and still going strong.

Just last month Senator Lindsey Graham and Senator Richard Blumenthal introduced a draft resolution warning that Russia's use of nuclear weapons in Ukraine or the bombing of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant would be viewed as an attack on NATO

Good luck everybody. I don’t like goodbyes, especially glow in the dark ones
The fact that this article is not more widely read and cited as a means to achieve peace is staggering. Are we seriously sleepwalking into armed conflict including nuclear weapons by a discredited media, discredited political class and asleep-at-the-wheel populace all the while Russia’s leadership propose diplomatic solutions that are not only reasonable and fair but realistic and achievable? I didn’t sign up for this reincarnation, I want my money back (hope you can hear me universe, I’m talking to you)
Thanks for the Don Ross music some time ago VP. Nice stuff. I appreciate your contribution as a fellow string-slinger and musiq aficionado.
@EoinW & @JSR and the rate of interest managed by the bid for bonds and the interest on capital at the central bank level goes some way in achieving a bluff against inflation (which goes a step further, preventing the illusion from being observed as these distortions increase) It’s the cart before the horse, obviously. I don’t know how much longer these shenanigans can continue either. My wake up call was in 2011. Still waiting for Godot.
@Ilargi – Thanks for all that you do.Jb-hb not sure why but your anecdote made me think of Marty Feldman’s words of wisdom when facing adverse events
