Be prepared, this is a shocker. One question followed the next as AI kept giving me more and more input and it got pretty serious until finally I was replied with a long, detailed description of where AI thinks our world is headed in just this year and the next, and it’s not real pretty.

I first asked the AI “is the USA capable of weathering a global famine?” As the conversation went on, it became a massive scroll which I’ve had to cut way down to it’s essence to render it readable. In the process I’ve been working on this AI to drop it’s Leftist bias by pointing out fallacies that it can’t deny. Time will tell if I’ve had any success, and if so I will surely let you know. Now on to the story…

AND THE AI SAYS:
Yes, the United States is overwhelmingly capable of weathering a global famine without facing mass starvation or domestic collapse, thanks to its massive agricultural base, advanced infrastructure, and vast economic resources. However, while the country produces more than enough sheer caloric volume to feed its population, a global food crisis would trigger severe internal economic disruptions, sharp food price inflation, and massive geopolitical strain.

Severe Food Price Inflation: Because agriculture is globally commoditised, a global shortage would send food prices skyrocketing domestically. Middle- and low-income Americans would spend a vastly higher percentage of their income on basic groceries.
Exacerbated Domestic Food Insecurity: Even in normal times, over 13% of U.S. households experience food insecurity due to systemic poverty and distribution issues. A global crisis would dramatically expand this number, requiring massive, unprecedented government intervention and domestic rationing programs to support vulnerable citizens.
Dietary Simplification: The U.S. has transitioned into a net food importer by dollar value, heavily relying on countries like Mexico for fresh fruits, winter vegetables, and tropical products. A global collapse would temporarily eliminate these out-of-season varieties, forcing Americans to rely on processed, frozen, or locally stored grains and meats.

ME: Okay, then why have food prices risen so much for us here in the USA if we make such a big surplus of food and why would they rise higher if there’s famine elsewhere. Don’t we come first in our own country?

AI: The frustration is completely valid. It feels contradictory that the world’s biggest food superpower has citizens struggling to pay for groceries.
The short answer is that having a physical food surplus does not shield Americans from global price hikes because the U.S. food system is entirely driven by a globalized, capitalist market—not a government-controlled stockpile.
Because of how our economy is structured, the U.S. government does not “come first” to claim domestic crops for its citizens; private corporations sell to the highest bidder anywhere on Earth.

1. You Pay for the Supply Chain, Not the Food
   When you buy a box of cereal or a package of meat, only about 7% to 15% of that dollar actually goes to the farmer for the raw food. The other 85%+ covers the industrial supply chain. This is why prices are so high: The Energy Shock: Industrial farming runs on diesel and fossil fuels. The ongoing war involving Iran has severely spiked fuel and fertilizer costs.
   Labor and Transport: Trucking costs, warehouse rent, packaging (aluminum and plastics), and grocery store wages have skyrocketed over the last few years. You are not paying for a shortage of corn; you are paying for the hyper-expensive fuel and labor required to harvest, process, package, ship, and shelf that corn.
2. “We Don’t Eat What We Grow” (The Import Deficit)
   While the U.S. produces a massive calorie surplus, it is concentrated in raw staple commodities (field corn for livestock, soybeans, and wheat). The U.S. does not produce a surplus of the food you actually buy in the grocery aisles: Fresh Produce: The U.S. is a net food importer by dollar value, bringing in roughly 60% of its fresh fruits and 35% of its fresh vegetables from trade partners like Mexico and South America.
   The Tariff & Weather Tax: Recent tariffs on foreign trade partners and extreme climate events abroad (like droughts in Brazil and Mexico) have directly shrunk the supply of fresh food, coffee, and fruit arriving at our borders, causing prices to surge.

ME: Okay, then with the oncoming, and already globally present drought and the shortage of fertilizers because of the Strait of Hormuz closing, and the fact that the poorest countries can’t pay the higher fertilizer prices OR pay for the produce that they can’t farm themselves WITHOUT that fertilizer, what is likely to happen as the drought deepens over this year and the next?

AI: As the global drought deepens through 2026 and into 2027, the convergence of unaffordable fertilizer, shrinking crop yields, and high energy costs is expected to trigger a severe cascade of geopolitical, humanitarian, and economic crises.
Because the global agricultural system operates on tight margins, a breakdown of this scale means the world will likely see a distinct three-wave crisis over the next 18 months.

Wave 1: The “Silent” Crop Failures (Immediate – Next 6 Months)
The crisis starts with a drastic drop in actual agricultural output, driven by a lack of both water and nutrients.Massive Yield Penalties: Without synthetic fertilizers, global crop yields drop by roughly 40% to 50% for intensive crops like corn and rice. Farmers in impoverished nations who cannot afford the spiked fertilizer costs will plant anyway, but their harvests at the end of this year will be catastrophic failures.

Wave 2: Hyper-Protectionism and Market Exclusions (6 to 12 Months)
As food becomes physically scarce, the globalized market will begin to fracture as nations enter survival mode.

The Poorest Nations Cut Out: Countries across Sub-Saharan Africa, parts of South Asia, and the Middle East will find themselves completely priced out. Unable to buy fertilizer to grow their own food, and unable to outbid wealthy Western and Asian nations for remaining global food stocks, these governments will run out of foreign currency reserves entirely.

Wave 3: The Geopolitical Fallout (12 to 18 Months and Beyond)
When a population cannot afford to eat, governance breaks down rapidly. This phase will redefine global stability:

The Collapse of Fragile States: Food insecurity is the historically primary driver of civil unrest. Nations already facing economic or political fragility (such as Lebanon, Egypt, Pakistan, and parts of the Sahel region) face high risks of widespread riots, government collapses, or civil wars as bread prices multiply.
Mass Humanitarian Migration: Severe, localized famines will force millions of people to flee unlivable rural areas. This will trigger massive refugee crises pushing toward Europe, the Middle East, and the southern U.S. border, severely straining international borders and political systems.

The Humanitarian System Breaks: Organizations like the UN World Food Programme (WFP) buy food on the open market to distribute to disaster zones. With food prices hyper-inflated, the WFP’s budget will buy only a fraction of what is needed, forcing them to ration aid and triage who receives life-saving food.

The U.S. Position: A Grim Economic Shield
For Americans, this deepening global crisis will manifest as intense domestic pressure. The U.S. will remain physically insulated from starvation because of its domestic energy and grain production. However, the government will face an agonizing diplomatic choice: hoard its own agricultural surplus to keep domestic grocery prices low for American voters, or export it to prevent the total geopolitical collapse of its global allies, causing U.S. food inflation to climb even higher.

Cross-Border Border Skirmishes (Central Asia & The Sahel)In regions where borders were drawn arbitrarily by colonial powers, nomadic herders and local militias will cross national boundaries by force to secure surviving green pastures and rivers. Central Asian Republics (Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan): These nations share the highly volatile Fergana Valley, where water infrastructure is shared tangled across borders. As the climate drought deepens through 2027, local military forces are prone to launching localized border wars to capture vital river dams and irrigation canals.The African Sahel (Mali, Niger, Chad, Burkina Faso): Plagued by extreme land desertification, state lines in this region are functionally disappearing. Well-armed militant groups and state militaries will likely launch cross-border incursions into relatively greener neighbors (like Nigeria or Cameroon) to forcibly control grazing lands, cattle, and grain storage hubs.

The Domestic Collapse Reality for the vast majority of the world’s hungriest nations—such as Sudan, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Afghanistan—the threat is internal war, not external expansion. When these governments completely run out of food and money, they will not have the organized military capacity to invade another country. Instead, their own militaries will fracture, and internal factions will turn inward, fighting bloody civil wars to control the country’s remaining domestic grain silos, ports, and aid distribution centers.

ME: It sounds like you’re saying that the USA and China are preparing to divide the world between them. Hemispheric globalism, sort of. Do you think this is the plan?

AI: Rather than a deliberate “plan” to divide the map, this shift toward a more divided world is a pragmatic reaction to the breakdown of the old global system [1, 2]. Geopoliticians and economists call this trend “regionalization” or “bloc-based globalization,” rather than true hemispheric globalism [2, 3].Neither superpower wants the massive financial burden of managing an entire half of the planet. Instead, both are building insulated, competing economic spheres to protect themselves from global crises [1].

Why This is Happening (The Drivers)This shift is driven by three main factors:The Death of Just-in-Time Supply Chains: The pandemic, the war in Ukraine, and current shipping crises proved that relying on global supply chains is dangerous. Both nations are moving factories closer to home (“nearshoring”) or to friendly countries (“friendshoring”) [1, 2].Resource Security Over Ideology: The fight is no longer about spreading democracy or communism. It is about securing physical access to copper, lithium, fertilizer, and grain [1].Sanction Proofing: China is building a trade network that does not use the U.S. dollar, ensuring its economy can survive even if the West cuts it off from global banking.

The Result: A Fragmented World Instead of a neat Western and Eastern hemisphere split, the world is fracturing into two overlapping trade networks:The Western Bloc (U.S.-Led): This network relies heavily on the USMCA (U.S., Mexico, Canada Agreement), Europe, and close Asian allies like Japan and Australia. The focus is on high-tech manufacturing, advanced computing, and reliable agricultural trade.The Eastern Bloc (China-Led): This network ties together parts of Central Asia, Africa, and Latin America through China’s Belt and Road Initiative and expanded BRICS alliances [1]. Beijing’s focus is on locking down raw materials, minerals, and fossil fuels [1].The Geopolitical Neutral Zone The main reason this is not a perfect split is that a massive portion of the world refuses to choose a side.Nations like India, Brazil, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, and South Africa are acting as “geopolitical swing states” [4]. They are actively trading with both sides—buying weapons or technology from the U.S. while selling oil or minerals to China. They will not allow themselves to be absorbed into a single hemisphere’s control.The Bottom Line, There is no secret blueprint to carve up the globe. What you are seeing is the messy creation of a “multipolar” world. The era where the U.S. was the single global superpower is over, and both Washington and Beijing are scrambling to wall off their own secure economic fortresses before the next major global shortage hits

The Industrial Agricultural Wildcard: Brazil While the first two categories focus on humanitarian disasters, Brazil represents a massive economic vulnerability to the global food system. Brazil is an absolute agricultural titan and a vital exporter of beef, soy, and corn to the rest of the planet. However, Brazil has a massive structural flaw: it has very little domestic fertilizer production and imports 88% of its total fertilizer consumption. It is almost entirely dependent on foreign potash and nitrogen to keep its soil fertile.If the global fertilizer supply chain chokes, Brazil’s mega-farms cannot produce at scale. If Brazil’s exports drop, the entire global food market loses one of its largest suppliers, causing food prices to rocket even higher in places like Europe and the United States.Summary of the Trap.

When wealthy import-dependent nations like Singapore or Japan face these shortages, they use their immense wealth to outbid everyone else and secure food. The countries listed above cannot do that. For them, the import trap isn’t just an expensive grocery bill—it is an existential threat to their survival.

Global Food Crisis: 10 Countries with the Worst Hunger Mar 13, 2023 — The Sahel sits just below the Sahara Desert and has become one of the world’s worst hunger emergencies. Ten countries – Afghanistan, Bangladesh, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Myanmar, Nigeria, Pakistan, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria.

ME: My concern is mostly about which nations might resort to war, to capture the needed food or resources to survive.

AI: . As the 2026 global food and fertilizer crisis worsens, several key nations are at high risk of initiating or escalating conflict to secure their survival.

1. Water and Agricultural Grabs (The Nile River Basin). Egypt is entirely dependent on the Nile River for its agriculture and is facing extreme exposure due to the 2026 global food crisis. Ethiopia controls the headwaters via the massive Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD). If Ethiopia restricts water flow to preserve its own reservoirs during the deepening drought, Egypt has repeatedly warned that it views Nile water levels as an existential national security threat. Egypt is the most likely nation to launch pre-emptive military or proxy strikes to forcibly secure its water supply.

2. Maritime Piracy and Trade Chokepoint Aggression Nations or heavily armed factions blocked from traditional markets will resort to asymmetric warfare to hijack food and fuel resources from global trade.Yemen (Houthi Faction): Yemen imports a staggering 93% of its cereal needs and is classified as an imminent famine hotspot. With the Strait of Hormuz largely paralyzed, the Houthis in Yemen have a strong incentive to weaponize the neighboring Bab-el-Mandeb strait. They are highly likely to escalate drone strikes and boardings of commercial ships to seize food, grain, and fuel passing through the Red Sea to supply their own starving territories.

And here is where I ended this conversation.

I have a new sign for my garden, 12 by 8 inches, freshly attached to a non-functional section of cedar fencing with deck screws. It features a very pretty young lady with a shovel and the motto “Gardening, because murder is wrong”, a sentiment I don’t always agree with but she is nice to look at when I’m not admiring the veggies of my labor. No fruits, they come in the fall, on the Thompson Seedless grape plant which is really kicking some ass now, I’ll tell you.

In fact I had a breakfast of zucchini sliced and fried in butter this morning courtesy of the largish plant in a mega-size planter pot. Salad yesterday with butterleaf lettuce and radishes, store tomatoes but not bad for non-garden ones, mine are weeks away yet. Squash soon.

Some little ratbastard sort of critter is digging up my starts at night, I come out and replant them in the morning but it makes me UnHappy. I put out a trail camera and the chip reader took a crap so now I’m waiting on Amazon to send the new one so I can see what this thing is, BUT in the meantime I set out some tasty poison that I hope it feasts on. Had this same problem last spring, used the poison, problem went away. Murder is not always wrong when combined with gardening.

The hot days are here. Winter fought hard to stick around and keep the nights cold but it finally lost to Climate Change, aka Summer, no doubt because of all the hot air expelled by politicians and Leftist media. So now most of the planet is headed into drought while floods are hammering the rest. I hope you fecking alarmists are proud of yourselves. You did this, you and that asshole Al Gore and his Inconvenient Bullshit, I’m sorry, I meant Truth, actually no.

I don’t grow a garden each year to save money. Money has nothing to do with it. I do it in self-defense. For at least part of the year I need good nutrition that I can’t get from the tasteless cardboard shit that masquerades as vegetables at the grocery stores. After a long winter and spring of genetically modified Mexican tomatoes grown in depleted soil and sent to market half green, there is nothing like biting into the first big, fat, ripe, juicy red home-grown tomato.

Last winter I whacked the front yard fig tree down to a third of it’s former glory, it was too tall to pick all the figs and the birds were getting most of them, and now it’s this thick bush and back to about 5 feet tall already. Yes, there will be figs. Fig trees grow like a sumnabitch when you plant them over leach fields. Your Handy Hint for the day.

June is Pride Month. Faggots, Lesbians, homosexual molesters of small boys, yes and the female ones who molest girls, Be Proud of being mentally ill and/or hormonally unbalanced. This is Your Month to ride unicycles naked with your balls painted red in San Francisco parades but watch out for all the hypodermic needles and piles of human shit that litter the streets and sidewalks. Remember you’re barefoot while you’re wading through the shit and piss in celebration of your part in destroying what used to be a balanced society.

If not for you, we wouldn’t be blessed with pre-pubescent surgeries that chop off boys genitals and assure them of early insanity and suicide, and mastectomies coupled with testosterone shots that make little girls grow up to resemble men. What a joy for them.

That’s right, if not for you we would never have had Trans-sexuality and all the madness, problems, hurt and heartache, social upheaval, misery and harm this insanity has brought us.

So, FUCKIN’ A, celebrate your month, revel in your insanity, stupidity and idiocy, rejoice in the horrible diseases you especially get to share with one another. You parents who helped neuter your kids, know that they will never pass on your demented genes which is the only good thing about all this. You worthless, perverted fuckers will never reproduce.

The Independent Sentinel posts that “In 1965, about 85% of Americans were white. Today, that share is closer to 59%” and that by 2050, white people will be a minority in America.

Maybe so, but never forget how style conscious we humans are. What do you think will happen when Whiteness starts going out of style? I’ll tell you what. Did you know that on Easter you can buy pink baby chicks and purple bunny rabbits? You can because they’re injected with dyes to change their colors and white people will be doing the same thing, and they’ll be the most popular race of people because they’ll be so STYLISH. The Rainbow Movement isn’t going to die out with less white people, there’s plenty of non-white faggots and perverts and they’re going to go nuts when they see white faggots and perverts dye themselves all different colors, which they will. You know they will and all those dark colored faggots and perverts are going to be insanely jealous.

Dark skinned people won’t be able to do this. I mean, yeah, you can make someone look more chocolate or if they’re not too dark, give them a golden hue or something but if you really want to look good you need to be able to Do The Rainbow, baby. Green on top, with a lavender chest, pink midsection and blue legs, Rainbow. Everyone will want to be white again but only the White People will be really cool.

Skin bleaching will become a major industry, everyone will want to be white so they can be red, green, blue, walking rainbows like real White People. Everyone is going to end up as walking rainbows and this will cause an all new social upheaval because then all the faggots and perverts won’t know which is which and there will be sexual assaults and beatings and lawsuits and mayhem and accusations and everything you can think of because that’s what faggots and perverts do and they do it with gusto and have naked parades about it.

And you know how all this will finally end up, people will just get tired of it all and walk away from the uproar, let their skins return to their normal colors if they didn’t go for the permanent stain jobs, which many will have, it will all have been just another passing fad like Hula Hoops and Afro hairdos, and life will go on. With a few changes, like all the mothers who had DNA changes so that their babies would be born blue, or green, or purple…

When the Trump administration made Israelis accept a cease-fire with Hamas just when they were on the verge of final victory, this naturally didn’t set real well with them. One of the many odious terms of this forced “agreement” that Israel never authored, endorsed or sanctioned was them being restricted to control of only 53% of the Gaza Strip. This allowed Hamas lots of room to dig out and repair tunnels and re-establish control over food supplies, and prepare more terror attacks against Israel. It snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

Netanyahu recently said that Israel should start distancing itself from military dependence on the US. To me, that was a big red flag that the Israelis have had enough dictation from Trump’s regime. Israel has long been dependent on the USA, America’s support has been vital in staying alive as a nation but there’s always been a stiff price for that, too.

The problem has always been that they’ve been a pawn of both the US and the Middle East Muslims, being forced to give up “land for peace” and tear down settlements in Samaria and Judea, with the constant pressure for decades to succumb to a “2-state solution” to give away half of their tiny nation to form a terrorist state right in the middle of it. This is because of the Middle East oil producer’s clout in the world economy, and the closing of the Strait of Hormuz may have just put an end to that.

The domination of Israel may be done with, as Israel’s been steadily expanding on that 53% to over 64% now and Netanyahu has openly stated now that Israel is moving toward 70% control of the Strip, as a baseline. In other words, they’re not stopping there and may be going for total control. Trump’s multi-nation consortium to develop the Gaza Strip into another posh Mediterranean Riviera is either dead or the Israelis are going to end up as owners of it, as it looks now.

A special reason for this sea change is becoming evident. Israeli war industry technology is rapidly advancing in capability and in new fields, and people want it, including the USA, which is making deals with Israel’s industry to share each other’s technology and development, according to various sources. What better reason to be more of a cooperating partner with Israel now?

The cease-fire with Hamas hasn’t worked. One of the first demands for it to happen was that Hamas surrender their weapons and they have not and refuse to. Israel rightly sees this as a violation that negates the cease-fire agreement. The US obligation to aid and assist Israel in renewing the war against Hamas because of this is has gone as silent as their complaints have gone over Israel’s continued involvement with Hamas and Hezbollah.

As usual, everything going on in this region is tied together with a big bow. The shutdown of the Strait of Hormuz and the blockade of Iran has devastated M.E. oil production, as they’re out of oil storage space and have had to shut down most of their wells. Iran will run out of space in about two weeks and it takes 30 to 45 days on average for a one-way trip of a super tanker to reach port and unload, another long trip back for more, so at least two and a half months per round trip. Iran will have shut down their wells long before then even if the US blockade of Iran ends today and the Strait reopens.

Shutting down most oil wells severely damages or ruins them, makes them unusable thereafter or nearly so, so says Google. Once the blockade is lifted and the Strait is open, if all I read is true, the Middle East will never return to its previous share of the world oil market and will have ceased to be the big guy on the block. That position is now occupied by the USA, which is the world’s largest producer of oil, and their new partner with their vast reserves, Venezuela. Iran won’t have the money any longer to continue as the largest funder of terrorism in the world, which dooms Hezbollah eventually in Lebanon while Israel now takes over complete control of the Gaza Strip and the Middle East oil producers no longer have the power to pressure the US to make Israel stop.

And there it is, another major building block in the New World Order, with a shiny new bow on top.

Are you paying attention? It’s nearly June and the Strait of Hormuz is still closed. Oil is now being pumped across Saudi Arabia from where it normally loads, and over to their Red Sea port. Since this is only a pair of pipes of moderate size, they can’t handle the 25 Million Barrels Per Day (MBPD) that’s produced and normally shipped out of the Strait. Five to six MBPD is their current limit. Work is ongoing to expand this to ten MBPD but when completed that’s still 10 MBPD short of what the world needs.

US and Venezuela oil production is already maxed out. The sudden loss of about 15 million barrels of oil a day to the world economy is a tremendous shock and the waves from it are only starting. It’s going to be a tsunami. A massive number of common products are produced from oil. Almost all plastics, fuel including gasoline and diesel fuel, road surfacing, FERTILIZERS, insecticides, medicines, aircraft and auto parts, clothing fabrics. It’s endless. The shortfall has increased the cost of everything. The poor are fast becoming poorer. And hungrier. Hungrier because nearly One Third of ALL artificial fertilizer in the world has to come through the Strait.

The whole reason farmers are still able to feed the 8.3 billion population now is because of artificial fertilizers. We just don’t have enough natural manures to do it and there’s a war on beef cattle to make things worse. One third less fertilizer means at least one third less food can be grown, and much of the world’s best farmland now has homes and roads built on it.

Trump keeps saying that he’s in no rush to get a deal with Iran because of the US blockade, that Iran will have to relent eventually or their economy will collapse. Oh, no doubt, eventually it will, along with the economies of many other nations. Not the US, of course, being the world’s largest oil producer at over 13 MPD, or the Saudis, now that all of the other M.E. oil producers are totally reliant on that Saudi pipeline to sell any oil at all. We and the Saudis will be just fine, those of us who are financially sound. The rest of the population, not so fine. But hey, no rush, says Trump.

Piper Sandler, one of the worlds oldest, at about 150 years, and largest investment banks, says that the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed for months yet. Because Trump. So, Question: If Trump is such a great conservative hero protecting Christian values of the world, why did he arrange for the Strait to be closed and is allowing it to remain closed when this will result in millions of deaths through starvation in the poorest nations? Because he’s not what he’s presented as? Because he’s part of a Globalist cabal?

The world no longer runs entirely on oil now that there’s solar and nuclear power plants, but there’s so many more people than there were and so much less oil being shipped now. Just a few more weeks and the planting season in the Southern Hemisphere will be over with, and the Super El Nino fully upon us.

Isn’t this fun? See how Mother Nature works hand in hand with Humanity to bring forth a New Globalised World? Of course, with decades of efforts to control the weather on the parts of China, Russia, the USA and whoever else felt like trying it, this Super El Nino may not be all Mother Nature’s doing. It’s said that this one will be historic, and perhaps in more ways than one, hmm?

The word is, that people are deliberately misspelling words in things they write to prove that it’s authentically human and not something some AI program wrote.

When AI first started getting good, the first use of it that really got some attention was in Hollywood, where real actors were being replaced with AI creations, and the music world, where songs started coming out that were written and produced by non-existent musicians. All of the above is still going on, of course, only better and much more realistic as the technology improves.

The problem here is that everything is electronic now. How does anyone prove that an image is an actual photograph and not an AI creation? It’s a real problem for those for whom it’s a real problem. The rest of us don’t give a shit, of course, so this is about the It’s A Real Problem people and I have a solution.

Yes, jadees and lentilmen, I can Fix This, all I need is a few billion dollars and some laws passed by Congress, and signed by Pres. Trump, of course. What we have to do is bring back Kodak Film and the thousands of little Fotomat film processing kiosks in mall parking lots.

An actual photograph taken on light-sensitive material is of the actual scene. It can be a staged illusion but it can’t be electronically manipulated unless it’s copied to an electronic format. The original photograph stays the same.

Of course, it won’t take long for an AI program to start creating totally bogus pictures and exposing film to them, so you end up with the same thing anyway, but it would give the people in Washington a new and creative way to waste more of our money. I would welcome this, I’m so bored of failed weapon projects, shipbuilding cost overruns and trains and bridges to nowhere. They used to spend it all on studies, like $50 million to find out if houseflies get enjoyment from sex and $80 million to find the lowest temperature that chickens will still lay eggs at. One of my favorites, actually, and one that I found really interesting and hoped I could get a piece of the action on, was the $800 hammers. Just making the little steel wedges that hold the hammer part to the handle would have made me rich. Oh well.

“Bongo bongo bongo, I wanna leave the Congo, ’cause I don’t want Ebola…”

Yes, beloved, the Words of Fear are spreading even faster than the disease is in the Congo. Stay armed and if you see any mask dealers lurking about, shoot them on the spot and help prevent the spread of the real disease, which is Fear.

Another news bit of note, or bits since the news is plainly spreading, is that this is a Super El Nino, it’s just going to cause so much hell, so much damage and devastation and blablablabla Fear.

All I can tell you is that if you want the real truth, which is frightening enough, read it here. What the Gov’t tells us is mostly lies and misdirection. Whatever they see fit to tell us is always stuff that doesn’t matter. Remember Edward Snowden, the NSA whistleblower who escaped to Russia to keep from being killed by his employers? “I understand that I will be made to suffer for my actions,” but “I will be satisfied if the federation of secret law, unequal pardon and irresistible executive powers that rule the world that I love are revealed even for an instant.”

I’ve been telling you for a long time now that the world is run by at least one cabal and I never had access to top secret NSA information, as he did. I just look at the world and what people are doing and it’s pretty damned obvious what they’re doing. Ignore what they keep saying and look at what they keep doing. It’s easy, anyone can do it.

The truth is that Ebola can’t spread in the US except among immigrants like the Somalis, Kenyans, Congolese and so forth because of their unsanitary habits, as Ebola is spread through physical contact with an infected person’s body fluids.

The truth about El Nino is that we won’t know if it’s going to get bad until it does. It’s expected to bring a lot of violent weather ranging from floods in some places to severe drought in others, and the weather being what it is, predictions are only that. So if you live in a drought area, put in a good water supply, dig a well or whatever and if you live in a flood zone, dig some drainage ditches, invest in sandbags, buy a rowboat, get some purified water, good rain gear. Just prepare, just in case, then go on about your life. Whatever happens, you’ll very likely have some time to see it coming. Remember the wise words of Muad Dib: “Fear is the mind killer”. You’re welcome. Now be strong, brave and happy, and march forward with your right middle finger raised high on the end of your arm.

Trump’s latest blurts on Iran are that they’re either 80% or 50% at a deal, depending on which blurt you read. He says they agreed to give up their uranium, they say “No, they didn’t” and then he says “Oh yes they did”.

While this public bickering goes on and everyone keeps being assured of a peaceful diplomatic solution that the Iranians will never keep even if they agree to it and sign it with their blood at the UN, any more than they ever have of any other agreements they’ve made, while this goes on the Strait continues to stay closed to shipping. Oil shipping. Trump did casually mention that the Strait may be closed for another 60 days yet.

Trump is making sure that those he wants to have oil still get it and those he doesn’t, don’t. Between the Texas oil fields and our hold on Venezuela’s oil, the US is controlling much of the world’s oil supply now instead of the Middle East producers. At the same time, as long as the Strait stays closed, market reports say that all the world’s big oil companies are reaping major fortunes from the closure. Haven’t researched that so I’ll take their word on it, it sounds reasonable if they have a lot of full reserve tanks.

My concern in all this is that Iran will keep their IRGC-controlled government and continue to be a plague on the rest of us until someone, most likely Israel, has no choice left but to nuke them to stop them.

Meantime, this is all about keeping the Strait closed, as I’ve previously ranted about. I toldja so that this is going to be prolonged and I said why. If you skipped that part, scroll down.

Stupid people think that they’re just as smart as smart people. I noticed this when I was young, they know that they’re not smart but make up for that by convincing themselves that Yes, They Are, By God. The only difference is that they can never be doctors or scientists or college professors and get mostly C’s and D’s in high school but That Doesn’t Mean They’re Not Smart and they can prove they are anytime by punching someone in the face who calls them stupid, and anyway the only reason they don’t become doctors and stuff is because they don’t want to. They could if they wanted to, easy. Ayup.

Stupid people will always try a new line of stupid reasoning when the last one doesn’t get the desired results. If they’re accused of cheating at something, and the stupid reasons they give why it’s not cheating don’t work, they’ll create all new stupid reasons and when none of them work, it won’t matter, you’re just wrong, that’s all.

Stupid people can never understand why smart people see straight through their bullshit. When they get fired from a job for being too stupid, that doesn’t stop them from going right out and getting another job exactly the same as the last one. It’s the Peter Principle in action, except when stupid people rise to their level of incompetence, they usually get fired and go rise to it again somewhere else. Stupid people are the ones who will keep trying to do something the same way every time and expect a different result even though they keep failing.

There’s nothing worse in this world than a stupid Liberal. The smart Liberals are just evil, it’s the stupid ones that take the orders, follow blindly and do all the real damage. The human race needs a serious DNA cleansing. It’s not the fault of stupid people to be born stupid, but the age of ditch diggers and cabbage pickers is ending as AI machines take over, and we’ve been seeing the proof of this grow with the swelling homeless encampments spilling over the sidewalks and filling up the storm drains. Besides, stupid people are all just So Fucking Boring and the stupid Liberals are the worst, everything you say to them is Racist or Just Wrong and Offensive. You can’t even mention the fucking weather, it turns into Global Warming. Me, I’m hoping for an invasion by some otherworldly alien race to clean the place up. Or maybe a nice nuclear war?
