JUST A SHOW OF FORCE?

Or is our government getting ready for The Big One? The world’s largest aircraft carrier, named after one of those worthless Bush presidents, was last reported to be in the Indian Ocean and headed in the direction of Iran, with 200 aircraft aboard and 15,000 personnel. Since that’s far too many for the ship’s complement, there’s probably about 12,000 Marines aboard.

Two other US aircraft carriers are already on the scene with their bombers and attack aircraft, along with a bunch of cruisers and destroyers and if reports are accurate, tens of thousands of US troops in case of ground invasion are there as well.

Meanwhile the construction of the “White House Ballroom” continues in the place where the East Wing used to be and it includes the removal of a virtual mountain of dirt steadily hauled away in dump trucks, as I reported earlier, while a hole to match is nowhere to be seen and it was leaked, and verified by Pres. Trump, that some sort of underground project is ongoing. I think it’s a very long tunnel, merely my opinion, to a place of safety or further evacuation, but whatever, it’s really odd.

An underground Capitol Building, apartments for the politicians, etc. that could be easily defended from a violent mob would be pretty useful too, if all the evidence pointing toward a near-future major food shortage is as valid as it looks. Remember that so-called “attack” on the government that got all those Trump supporters stuffed into prisons? What if that was really a test of the government’s ability to handle a real attack? I mean, the whole thing was very surreal at the time and the crowd was full of Alphabet Agents pretending to be with them, right from the start. It was a big fake planned and executed by our government. The Chinese aren’t the only ones who plan years ahead.

It’s very interesting to me that The Trump Regime SAYS it isn’t interested in regime change in Iran. Iran’s constitution is specific in that the US and Israel must be destroyed and Iran must conquer the world. Anything that works is good, so if this terrorist state problem is to end, regime change is absolutely necessary and in my view, anything that works to do this is good, too. This means a lot of destruction in Iran.

A lot of people are against major demolition, including Turkey, aka Erdogan, who’s becoming a bigger problem to the US as time passes, with his inflated ego and obstructionism, and I kinda think old age may catch up with him sooner than he expects, courtesy of the CIA or Mossad. The Israelis certainly would not lament his passing.

Our current administration is pushing for more and faster executions of criminals, and bringing back firing squads, the electric chair and the gas chamber, as well as more and faster means of poisonous injections, and now that Pam Bondi has been fire, the new female head of the DOJ is going full steam ahead. The bodies are already piling up. Great, kill them all and let God sort them out. I nominate wood chippers as a primary execution method and that all those Tren De Oogly tattooed vampires on death rows be promptly fed into them, feet first. They should be so happy I’m not in charge of their demise.

Ah well. Enough cheerful thoughts and random musings. It’s really late, beddy-bye time.

AIN’T NATURE GRAND?

It’s been well over a year now, I was sitting right here in my computer chair typing away on an email when I felt something in my beard, on the left side of my face near my ear, and rubbed at it. It was a spider, it bit me, and the whole side of my face swelled up so badly I nearly chose to drive to the hospital emergency room.

But I waited it out for a few hours and the swelling started to subside, so that was that, but I always wondered where that damned spider came from. Until now. Here I am, sitting in the same chair doing pretty much the same thing and at the top of my peripheral vision something is moving downward.

Leaning back, I see it’s a SPIDER, on a thread, aiming for my head. I clapped it between my hands and killed it, and on inspection, it’s one ugly, long-legged nasty looking little bug, and apparently it sensed that I might make a meal for it and this is the tactic it uses to attack it’s prey and suck some juices from. This would work if I were a dog or hamster or well-fed politician. Not so well with me, though.

But the tricks of bugs… Waaaay back when I was a teenager, some cockroaches invaded the family home, we suspected they came in with a cardboard box from the grocery, and of course we quickly eradicated them. But not before they announced their presence by crawling across the ceiling to a point over our dinner plates and dropping square into them. Agh! The horror. Akk! The disgust. You don’t forget a thing like that.

YES, MONEY DOES BUY HAPPINESS

Way back in 1984 I spent $6000 on a high end, high powered “exotic” stereo system, comprised of two tower speakers, pre-amp, amplifier and tuner, and have enjoyed it immensely all these years. Over the years I blew out the woofers and one midrange. The woofers only needed cone replacements but the midrange was toast and a long search ensued for as close to exact a replacement I could find. All this was done about 18 years ago and of course I continued to use the sound system.

Now it’s all 42 years old and those very expensive speakers are sounding kinda tired, so I purchased a high-end pair of Klipsch speakers, which arrived two days ago.

But a little while ago the power amplifier lost one channel and after trying all the fixes on Facebook and a few of my own to no avail, I started looking on ebay, and found and bought one today that’s guaranteed to be fully functional. We will see, upon it’s arrival. It’s the same model as my semi-failed amp, and also considered “Exotic” along with the other system units.

Anyway, today I hooked up the CD player to the pre-amp, the pre-amp to the one good channel left on the amp and that to one of the new speakers and Oh-My-God, was I ever right about the old speakers sounding tired. The sound is CRISP again, I can hear the tiny notes, the sharp cutoff as each one was originally played, the bass is clear again instead of the deep rumble it had become, the high notes are sharp as knives again. I love it. I absolutely love it. How much more amazing it’s going to be when the replacement amp is here and the second speaker joins in the harmony.

My only friendship here has ended, as I previously posted, but the music is renewed. This isn’t seen as a trade-off, just changes. Things always change and we have to know how to roll with them. I actually feel ebullient. Gad, how long has that been?

There’s much to be said for staying within your own purview and that which you can control, especially in old age. Life is difficult enough when we’re young.

WHAT’S FOR DINNER?

Over 30% of the manufactured fertilizer chemicals, produced from oil, passes through the Hormuz Strait each year and it’s these artificial fertilizers that have made it possible for the human population of Earth to increase to 8 billion people. Most farming areas on our globe were depleted of most of their nutrients long ago and without the yearly addition of fresh nutrient, would be unable to produce crops sufficient to feed everyone.

Right now it’s Spring in the Western Hemisphere. It’s planting season and the fields need to be fertilized, plowed and planted. Right now is also when the availability of fertilizers is being blocked. Just saying…

Doctors are becoming more and more alarmed as they see infant mortality increasing among those whose mothers took the Covid injections. These children are dying from diseases and problems they never should have had and are showing the same spike proteins in their blood that their mothers have, even though they never got the shots. Just saying…

NATO seems to be disintegrating. If it does, then when a NATO member, or I should say former NATO member gets attacked by, say, China or Russia, no one will come to their aid. In other words, if NATO goes, the primary impediment to making war on a smaller nation no longer exists, so why not do it? Just saying…

Africa reached it’s maximum sustainable population many decades ago. Anyone remember Kwashiorkor babies? That’s when infants turn into skeletons with bloated stomachs because the people don’t stop making babies even though there’s already too many of them for the available food supply. So there was this massive famine in Ethiopia, over a million people died of starvation, mostly women and children because of a drought that severely limited harvests. That was just Ethiopia and a lack of rain. Now let’s think about just this one year, 2026 and the fall harvest ahead, and a global lack of soil nutrients. What if there’s a drought, too? A global drought? Just saying…

Google says: “Early 2026 reports already indicate significant droughts in the US Southeast, parts of South America, and East Africa.” I don’t know about “parts of South America” but East Africa is the most populous part of the continent, so it looks like Ethiopia may be in for it again. The US Southeast is a massive food producer that includes 60% of the total U.S. agricultural export volume. The USA is still the breadbasket of the world. Just saying…

Of course, all of this is no doubt completely coincidental…

PEOPLE ARE NO DAMNED GOOD

This was the punch line for a cartoon in Playboy Magazine that appeared sometime in the 1960’s, by Gahan Wilson. The cartoon was of a little naked man inside what looked like a cardboard box that was laying on it’s side with him in the open side looking out, and scowling.

There was a lot of truth to that cartoon then and nothing has changed in the 60 or so years since I saw it. What brings me to think of this now is that the very last friend I had is now gone, not by dying, just by abandonment.

I’ve been watching the changes in attitude toward me as the effects of my aging become more prominent. My hearing is degrading along with my eyesight and physical strength and the wrinkles are steadily increasing. The only thing that isn’t slowly failing me is my brain. The rest is going where aging takes it. I’m not a different person, I’m still the same guy, I just don’t look like it the way I used to, I have to wear a hearing aid in public now if I want to hear what a waitress or clerk is saying and I need reading glasses to read menus, receipts and so forth.

My friend, though 34 years younger than me, is aging faster than I am, probably from getting a couple of those Covid poison injections, so maybe it’s just fear of aging that I’m too much of a reminder of. In any case, the more I’ve aged, the less interest or respect for my friendship has been shown me and it’s plainly gone beyond repair.

I think the only real lesson to take from this is that we should be grateful for the good times. Like everything else in life, they don’t last. If we hang on to that which is no longer there, we keep ourselves from moving on to new good times. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is my Philosophy Hint For Today.

HOW TO AVOID CHILD SUPPORT

Another black guy running amok with a gun. Shamar Elkins just blew away 7, yes that’s SEVEN of His Own kids along with another black child belonging to someone else but with all those kids he no doubt mistook the last one for one of his own. Not that it matters. No one with a brain has any business fathering that many polluting eaters but I have to applaud his actions, as he sure recognized his error and made to correct it.

DeVaughn, I mean Trayvon, no, wait…, Shamar Elkins, sorry, those names they give their kids always kinda run together… anyway, Shamar got whacked by the cops after losing a car chase with him being the chasee. Good ending really, I mean, if he’d lived, who knew how many more of those critters he would have bred? He relieved the welfare rolls of 8 non-contributing eaters and future drug dealers, drive-by shooters and rapists and then got offed, you can’t ask for a better ending.

TRUMP THE CHRIST GOD PERSON THE PRESIDENT IS A GOD NOW.

Donald J. Trump, The New Jesus. He Walks Among Us. Ooowow. Yes, these are the AI pictures he actually posted on his Truth Social site.

He’s really pissing off a lot of the Very Religious right now, portraying himself as being The Second Coming’s Big Buddy or something. He’s been spouting a lot of stuff about God lately, but if he’s a follower of Jesus’s teachings, I’m the King of England.

ESCAPE ROUTE

There’s an absolutely massive mountain of dirt that’s still growing larger, on one end of the District of Columbia golf course, not far from the White House where it was revealed that the ballroom being constructed as a White House extension is actually a cover for what Trump describes as an extensive bunker, a sort of big “safe room” in case of attack.

I think that’s a big LIE. I thought so the instant he said it. If the White House is hit with a nuke, no one in that supposed “underground bunker” will survive. What I’ll bet my favorite pair of socks on is that they’re digging a tunnel for a one-way rapid transit roadway to take them far, far away from the White House, in a big hurry if the need arises. Nothing else makes any sense. I mean, an underground bunker right by the White House that everyone knows is there? You might as well mark the D.C. maps with a bullseye. BANG, there goes the entire US government.

There’s other things I’d look for to prove my little theory but I’m not going to speak of them. No sense giving the bad guys any more of a leg up on this than they probably already have, assuming they’ve already come to the same conclusion I have.

FLY ME TO THE MOON, LET ME PLAY AMONG THE STARS

And conveniently forget that it’s Iran we’re at, not Mars.

There’s not one single thing that we stood to gain by sending four people around the moon, because we’ve already done that many, many times fifty years ago. We know all about the moon, we’ve mapped and remapped it, we know where the water sources are, we know it’s interior, we know the moon.

The reason a rocket was sent around the moon was to distract everyone from what’s going on in the Middle East for awhile and the fact that the Strait of Hormuz is still blocked by Iran in spite of a so-called cease-fire deal that stipulates that Iran had to open it. They have not and now the US is going to be NEGOTIATING with Iran again, meaning that absolutely nothing will change.

We said that there would be no cease fire until Iran surrendered. Then we shot off a rocket to the moon and while everyone was staring at the shrinking dot of it, we stopped attacking Iran and agreed to negotiate.

Joe Rogan, who’s a fat, bald, stupid, loudmouth piece of shit but has a pretty successful podcast where he spouts a lot of unlikely brainfart crap, has been going on about missing and dead very important scientists, nine of them now, and he may be on to something actual. I mean, those scientists have died or disappeared under extremely suspicious circumstances and it’s too many to just be a strange coincidence. Those men were into advanced sciences and now they’re gone. Violently. Rogan says they were into advanced energy research. He says.

Iran and the Middle East are all about oil. Oil gives us Energy, Chemicals, Drugs, Plastics, Fertilizers. That’s what oil is, it runs the world and the world runs on oil. Most of the world’s oil must pass through the Strait of Hormuz. Meanwhile top energy scientists that might know how to open new energy sources that eliminate our need for oil for energy all disappear and a rocket flies around the moon.

If this isn’t all connected, I’ll eat Freddy Kreuger’s shorts.
