  • At the start of COVID, besides stealing supplies from “blue” cities, under gunpoint right off the docks, Trump sent 3 testing machines to Putin. When we ALREADY didn’t have enough.

    He delayed doing anything about it, publically saying, paraphrasing, “it seems like a problem for the blue cities” and didn’t lift a finger until people in the south started dropping like flies

    Over average deaths during that time frame are an order of magnitude higher than the actual reported COVID numbers - That is the only metric that matters. And beyond not helping Americans, he actively stifled help from reaching us

    No SINGLE person in our history is responsible for as many deaths as Trump is, due to his hindering relief. He is the biggest killer of Americans the world has ever seen. Putin definitely got his money’s worth.

    And he sold our nuclear tech to the Saudi’s. Wtf else would Kuschner have received 2Billion USD for?




  • Affluenza.

    Once you have so much it’s obscene, you don’t have any peers.

    Without peers, you don’t have true accountability. Without accountability man becomes monster

    It should be in the DSM, seriously. Then we can argue we’re legislating a maximum annual income limit for their own good, to protect their mental health - and we wouldn’t be lying in the least.

    Ever met a wealthy child?

    Monsters. All of em. #eattherich

    The truly sad part too, is real connection to the past, to humanity, that wave of empathy and seeing your place in the chain, happens when we are doing the same mundane things that those chucklefucks think their too good for. First time it happened to me I was meading the dough for some daily bread. And it was like the history of my ancestors and I all merged into one, all around this one activity.

    People without people aren’t people.


  • I mean…Russia stands to benefit the most from climate change. Followed by Canada.

    A few degrees centigrade and just about everything below the 40th parallel become unhabitable. That leaves the northern border states in the US. 350million of us gonna squeeze into Washington, Montana (fuck Idaho) N.Dakota Minnesota, NY, New Hampy, Verminion and Maine? IDK about that.

    For the first 20 years of my life I thought we would step up and have a plan to avoid the worst. That next 20 years I was waiting for real coordination to be heard over the politicking. The last few years I realized we do have a plan. And that plan is the exact one I thought was waaaay too barbaric for modern times but now I’m convinced it’s the only outcome we’ve planned for at all.

    And that’s to build the wall and drop a machine gun every 20ft. There’s ~200million people between us and South America and the army has way way more ammunition stored up than just that.

    So the choice of having the world’s rich humbled down to the common man and we all degrowth or slaughter 200million people, America has chosen blood.

    Politics is nothing but coordinated violence, in that it is nothing but coercion of people against their own interests. If you’re an interested party, than youre adding to the coercion of others. If you stay out of it, then it’s not political to you is it?

    Politics:violence

    Politics:economics

    Economics:violence

    Try telling people whose rent has doubled or tripled within a decade that economics isn’t violence. You’ll experience some carnal violence in return, I’m sure.

    Politics = violence; it’s the NC-17 version, violence all grown up and sophisticated. Sanitized for TV, in it for the sound bites. In fact, I’d say at least half of it is theatre alone. It’s even been packaged up for the people to play along from home. The evolution of violence, fun for the whole family. I mean, what else would we talk about come holidays? HELPING each other?!?




  • Renewables took off in Texas because it’s

    1. Vast
    2. Flat
    3. Hot
    4. Windy

    It’s pretty much heaven for solar and wind, both of which have no qualms building out in the middle of nowhere.

    I wonder if anyone’s going to attempt tide generators with our freshly roided up storm seasons. The whole East Coast has barrier islands that are all about to sink, so we won’t even have to go down far to anchor them.

    Windmills are taking off now in Wyoming, and I can’t believe it took them this long, loaded down freighters get blown over hourly every fucking day in Wyoming. They built their freeways with massive shoulders just to wreck on. Windmill farms are all down central and Eastern Washington, central and eastern Oregon and California. I can’t speak much to the Midwest but you can’t drive 5miles thru Iowa without seeing 100windmills. In between houses and shit. I like the spirit but goddamn, Iowa needs to chill.

    Solar is huge all along the sun belt. Shit I’m off-grid in Washington and I do it off 2500w of panels and 375ah of batteries. It’s not as good as having a tap to grand coulee but I don’t have an electric bill and that does more than just dry my tears, it actually makes happy.







  • Not gonna lie. I know about 50 women with psych degrees. Out of these 50, exactly 2 of them use those degrees and theyre both escorts.

    Women should sue higher education writ large for the swindle that is a psych degree. Any promise that it would lead to work was a known lie. That shit is crack to women. Go figure out yourself, and other people, sprinkle in true crime and look at that. Dean’s were more predatory than pimps.


  • Yip. I took the government what, 17 years…? from suing to breaking up AT+T, and they were the largest company in America that entire time.

    At+t tried to slap em with some exorbitant long distance charges and Uncle Sam got tired of the fuck around.

    To today; Google’s been showing the wrong people the wrong kind of ads. Showing representatives ads for laundromats and daycares that offer drivinga ed after looking up how to launder money and traffic children. NO google, I did NOT mean THAT




  • So here I am scrolling as one do, and your photo slides into view. To myself I think, oh, nice mammaries, and then pause to think more people should say that, and then scroll down until the text comes up. And small? That is not what I would call them.

    Anywho, quite right, good show, carry on, cheerio.

    The Brits really have more fun with the language than we do.


  • Mediterranean literally translates to “middle of the earth”

    Medi = middle Terran = earth Ean = of the

    The complete sea name in a native romance language, not English, is Mar de Mediterranean. The word is obviously Latin in origin and the sea has been known as such since antiquity, probably predating Rome (who at the height of their control called the Mediterranean a Roman lake, since they encircled it on all sides. How quaint of them, yea?). This would have been known to Tolkien as the educated, well everybody really, back in the day, had more exposure to Latin, which had spread out widely due to the Church. Martin Luther and Guggenheim started that unraveling, tho Latin is still spoken in many many Catholic churches today.

    Midgard does translate to middle earth as well. Tolkien was prob aware of this as well, tho i think that this is lesser well known than Mediterranean, just by the global reach of Spanish.
