SUPPOSE THEY GAVE A WAR AND NOBODY CAME

That was the statement, in big bold letters, on a bumper sticker on the back bumper of my car in 1968, during the Vietnam War. It did piss off a lot of rabid blood and guts types and someone eventually tore it off when I wasn’t looking, demonstrating that those against my little protest were cowards and sneaks.

Today the Ukraine War rages on, but Trump says “not much longer”. Why does he say that? Simple. Both sides are running out of warm bodies to shove into the hamburger grinder. Can’t fight a war without fighters, no wonder everyone is trying so hard to develop killer robots.

The North Koreans, we are told, commit suicide if they get captured in battle because it shames the enemy and other bullshit reasons but the real reason is that their Great Leader told them their families would be slaughtered if they didn’t do it. That’s how worthless those people are to both Russia and N. Korea. No shame though, Russian soldiers have equal value, or lack of it actually.

This has been a bogus war from the start as far as the stated goal of conquering Ukraine is concerned. That’s more like the fortune cookie after the chow mien. The obvious reason for depleting Eastern Europe of so many young men was to test out new weapons in the field. The use of drones in warfare has been tremendously technologically advanced. It’s been a real revelation how useless tanks have become against drones and how difficult it is to defeat them. As methods evolved to jam their radios, jam-proof drones have been developed.

Along with this is the rapid development and the beginning of actual deployment of autonomous killer robots. That’s what Ukraine actually is, it’s a testing ground in real time for autonomous robot warfare. Right now the goal is using robots to kill people, how well they do is the current measure of effectiveness, but once the armies of the poor nations have been decimated, or while it’s in process, more likely, the testing of robots against robots will begin. After all, whoever has the most successful robots wins, right?

I wonder where all this will end. Wait, didn’t they make a movie about this?

GREED IS GRATIFYING

Silver and gold are up again. My stash of precious metals is mostly in silver, simply because it’s more volatile than gold by far, and if you wait until it bottoms out and then buy, by the time gold has risen 20%, silver will have risen 40% – 50% and it’s time to sell. I’ve made a lot of “spare cash” over the years with timing and patience.

This last time around, however, when gold went over $5000 an ounce and silver hit $110, I held off selling, though I could have made enough profit to buy a couple nice new Teslas. This is because I knew the bubble was going to have a very short life, and apparently most others did as well, because the actual purchase price when it hit its low of $72 an ounce last week was still in the $90’s per ounce instead of being close to the low.

I was expecting that, which is why I didn’t sell. The buyback would have eaten nearly all my profit and it would have been a race to even make a profit. As it is right now, silver is back up to $87 an ounce and while it will no doubt keep rising and falling like the tides, it’s going to trend steadily upward. The “experts” online say it may hit $110 again by the end of 2027. I’m pretty sure it will be at least $150 an ounce by then because of inflation and industrial demand. Gold will also rise with it, of course.

I might be wise to sell it all off before the end of this year, however. The two primary Globalist factions seem to be unifying and the more they come together, the more everything is affected. We all know how unpredictable life has become simply from all the unbridled immigration promoted by the Globalists. It will become much more so with the looming food and fuel scarcity and inflation. Values are going to change, hunger and scarcity always bring new perspectives with them.

A TALE OF TWO STEREOS

You’ve all been very patient waiting to hear about my stereos, so no more revelations on our impending doom at the hands of mutant aliens, for awhile anyway and besides, this is far more important that something like the extinction of humans. Such a boring species, Hieronymus Bosch’s portrayal of Hell was really just an average, everyday depiction of human behavior.

Yes, My Stereos. Well, after ebay belched forth an exact vintage replacement in prime working order for my sadly ailing power amplifier and it was hooked into the system with the other matching components and all was working properly, I decided to connect it to my old speakers, which are a pair of Qysonic Arrays purchased in 1984, same year the book was written about. And I have to say, as a prediction, it fell abysmally short. Anyway, My Stereos…

On doing so and playing a Jon and Vangelis cd, it was immediately obvious that there was nothing wrong with the speakers, so the distortion must have been all in the one remaining functional channel of the old power amplifier.

Since I’d already purchased a very nice used vintage Mitsubishi pre-amp through ebay as a backup, and I now have a new pair of high end tower speakers because I’d thought the old ones were farshimelt, like I said before only I didn’t say farshimelt, and now know they really aren’t farshimelt at all, it only made sense to find and purchase a matching vintage Mitsubishi power amplifier, a media cabinet, heavy speaker cables and so forth and so on, and set this all up in my bedroom so I can have fine stereo music in there too.

The speakers are in place, the cables are run, waiting on the arrival of the amplifier and cabinet to complete this project.

When you live alone and don’t support a wife who Thank God left me without demanding alimony, but no doubt her taking up with another woman was a big help in that, and the ungrateful kids are gone so no one is coming to me for help anymore, they all got married and are stuck with having to help themselves, it’s in times like these that we get to selfishly spend it all on ourselves and don’t have to worry about making anyone else happy, let alone put up with any of their happy horseshit.

Can you imagine if I was still married and had a kid or three running around, with a stereo system in the living room and another in my bedroom? The kids would be fighting over what horrible music they wanted to play, my wife would be playing some shit from some lesbian guitarist and I’d be running for the circuit breakers.

IGNORE THIS AT YOUR PERIL

I’ve been telling you that severe shortages, famine and so on are coming. I’m not alone. Others are talking about what it means to have the Strait of Hormuz stay closed to ship traffic and they all agree with me. Right now all that most of us are feeling is pump shock at what it’s suddenly costing us to fill our gas tanks. But a shortage of fuel doesn’t mean just higher fuel prices, it means higher everything prices for what there is available, which will soon be less.

It doesn’t seem right that this 20% loss of crude oil from the blocked Strait could cause so many problems, but it does because there was a balance between the need for oil and the supply of it and now that balance is gone and the world economy is literally in shock. It will take a long time to work around this problem if the Strait stays closed and the economy’s already badly damaged now because of the time it’s been closed. There’s no timeline for it’s opening again and meanwhile, there’s nothing in place to make up for the shortfall, so the situation will continue to worsen.

In my view, our real, actual world leaders, not those who posture and pontificate, are setting the world up for yet another extended period of hardship.

I took inventory this morning of my Cold Room food stash, it seemed timely especially since I’ve been consuming stuff out of it rather than see it get too far past it’s Use By date. Then I made a list and went to one of our local cheap food outlets and stocked up on more, much more, granulated sugar and white flour, plus vinegar and raisin bran cereal. They were out of shredded wheat. These are minimally processed foods, healthy to eat and a long shelf life. A few more items to replenish and I’ll have it. The goal is to maintain a 2 year food supply.

It doesn’t cost all that much to have that much food put away for a single person who weighs around 145 pounds and doesn’t eat like a pig. No cookies, snack chips or other garbage food. My one concession to that is some cans of wasabi peas, unless you count a large jar of salted peanuts, which I consider the same genre as energy bars, one case of them.

Some people find security in owning one or two large, expensive dogs to protect them from danger, but I’d rather not find myself in the position one day of choosing whether or not to start eating the dogs. Dogs eat a lot, and big dogs eat more. I’d rather have a cold room stuffed full of food.

This may all blow over and everything will go back to normal. I hope it does. I just don’t think it will. That’s all.

and it’s SHOWTIME

The Lord of the Files has Released The Krakon, and these files have flies all over them, they stink so bad. I downloaded the first batch and they’re 100% Utter Crap. Many letters to Herbert Hoover of the FBI, way back when, asking about UFO’s, “Are they real, Mr. Hoover?” “No, Virginia, they’re all swamp gas, like Santa.” Dozens of those. Crude drawings, what appears to be extremely faded copies of copies of meaningless objects, newspaper articles and stories.

The military photos are grainy, black and white pictures of tiny dots. No close encounters that we’ve heard so very much about? There’s a list of more file downloads which look like the first download. I selected one at random and it’s exactly like the first one in having valueless content. No verification of anything, by anyone in any official government capacity, no actual photos, nothing but letters back and forth and references to phone calls.

There’s nothing in any of this that denies UFOs or UAPs or whatever is stylish to call them now by our government, nor is there anything at all that confirms them. It’s basically a load of meaningless and harmless paper dug out of the trash.

Did I expect our government to tell us the straight truth? Read my previous post for that answer. What may prove more interesting than these fly-spotted files are the reactions I expect to see soon, the howls of dismay from both sides of this issue. Sorry, all you secret agencies, but neutrality on this subject is no longer going to work for you.

Update, next day. The Right and Left are both touting the “released files” as being startling new material. Some of it no doubt hasn’t been released to the public before but none of it so far shows anything more than tiny dots and vague, blurred, tiny images that could be anything. Fox News hosts their favorite long-haired Oriental scientist who assures us that everything will be looked into. The Uniparty in action.

Here’s a theory for you that isn’t entirely new. A lot of people of various repute have, over the years, suggested that humanity was guided in its evolution by an alien race. That really isn’t so far-fetched or fantastic, we with our limited technology have radically altered the evolution of many animals and plants, and there’s no reason why an alien people couldn’t do the same with us. Look, we have strawberries crossed with frog DNA to make them more cold resistant and now we have most of humanity injected with a brew that has permanently altered our DNA in a bad way, and it’s permanent to our species. It’s inherited, so before long every human on Earth will have been genetically mutated, in a way that will drastically reduce our population. Or wipe it out, we don’t know. We do know that it reduces births, causes infertility, massive blood clots and wrecks our immune systems.

Why would any human do this to all humanity, yet it has been done, and how difficult would it be to pull off an assault on our species of this magnitude, knowing what it meant, yet it has, without a lot of people blowing the whistle? Not saying it wouldn’t be possible, but I have to ask. This looks very much like the end of the human race. Who would benefit from that?

I don’t think this is actually an extinction event. There’s too many billionaires building underground survival bunkers in places like New Zealand and the Hawaiian Islands. The one being dug next to the White House, for another. Certain people know things the rest don’t, it shows, and looks to me that rather than extinction, a massive culling is coming. More to say on this, later.

LORD OF THE FILES

Donald Trump says he’ll start releasing “some” of the UFO files tomorrow, Friday. I haven’t the slightest doubt that if he were to release actual, incontrovertible proof that one or more alien races are visiting Earth, that something terrible would happen to him.

In the first place, he has no access to those files. Several presidents have said exactly that. Pres. Carter tried to get access and was flatly refused. That fact should be sufficient to alert us that if it wasn’t true, there would be no secret to keep.

But Trump, wanting to be the first US president to do whatever it is that past presidents never did, has managed to put together a side show to embellish The Main Event, the gladiatorial bouts slated to ensue in front of the sacred White House. I dearly hope he astounds everyone by parachuting in onto the lawn and emceeing the event. “And lastly through a hoop of real fire, da da da de, da da da dum”. Trump the Showman. Don’t forget his “You’re Fired” TV show. He knows how to put these shindigs on

And the longer he can keep us entertained while the blockage of the Hormuz Strait continues, the higher fuel prices will go and the less fertilizer there will be. MEANWHILE, back at the Internet, here’s a current as of today Drought Map for your viewing pleasure:

The drought is worsening, as you can readily see by going to one of the weekly-comparison sites. As it is worldwide. A big change is hoped for with an impending switch from the current El Nina to an El Nino condition that’s hoped to bring a lot of rain, possibly as soon as next month, in June, after it’s too late to start planting, for those who were able to afford the high price of fertilizer.

Of course, the weather people say this will be a “Super El Nino”, which means major rainstorms, which will wash away all that dry soil, flood towns, kill lots of poor people…

I really hate to be so cheerful, as disasters come and go, but all this passes and is replaced by sunshine and happy days before it all turns to screaming and wailing again, it’s a cycle whether we want to get used to it or not. I’m just saying that Here comes another one, gird your loins and meanwhile Trump in his top hat and bullwhip will entertain us.

RETURN TO ROME

Does anyone besides me have visions of the Roman Coliseum while reading about the preparations for UFC championship MMA fights in front of the White House?

Methinks it’s not about kings. It’s about Caesars. One named Trump, perhaps? Are we destined for even greater circuses? Remember how the Caesars stayed in power? By providing spectacles for the people. They had arenas built all over Europe and put on fights, plays and other popular attractions to keep the people’s support as Rome waged one war of conquest after another.

Will the Senate end up sticking knives in Trump, figuratively speaking? Will he become the first Perforated President? I doubt it but wanting to be Caesar does carry some risks and so far the saboteur squad within some dark recess of our government has failed in it’s efforts, if all those efforts are indeed factual and valid. There are naysayers.

I can’t help seeing the comparison to the Caesars of ancient Rome. Here we are, involved in Iran, bickering like Harpies with our neighbors and with the Sacred Mid-Term Elections coming up and Trump is on TV bragging up this coming event and calling it “The Greatest Show On Earth”. Did you know that was the slogan of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus? They faded away finally in 2017 after nearly 150 years. I saw them at their best when they came to Long Beach when I was a boy and I promise you that whatever sort of show Trump sponsors in front of the White House, it will be nothing compared to the jungle beasts leaping through rings of fire, the herd of elephants inside the Big Tent, the impossible number of clowns jumping out of those tiny cars or the trapeze artists flying through the air.

What is going on in our government now is unlike anything ever before in our entire history and the White House gladiators are only one of Many Attractions To Behold as this government continues to present us with marvels to mask the terrors hiding behind them. You remember I said that.

MIERDA ISLAM

That’s Spanish for FUCK ISLAM, which is a rapidly growing public sentiment as yet another innocent Spaniard has been murdered by some worthless fucking Muslim migrant from Africa.

Spain was ruled by the fucking Muslimes earlier in their history and fought free of them only to have their Socialist government open the doors to millions of these worthless, violent, unchecked, unrestrained Islamic Assholes and actually invite them in this time.

I guess they think it makes a difference that the ones that invaded before came as a conquering army while these are invading migrants. No. It doesn’t make one fucking bit of difference, as I hope you in Spain and all of Europe are now realizing. Meanwhile, keep burying your innocent violently murdered dead, who were slaughtered at random by some worthless spirochete of an African Muslim, shed your tears at the funerals and mourn your sad losses until you finally WAKE THE FUCK UP and start fighting back as these young Spanish boys did who were attacked by five of these black bastards with machetes and fought back. When the assailants ran one of them was chased down by one of the boys who stabbed that black pile of rhino shit to death.

MORE ADDED TO THE LAST POST

About food rationing. And fuel, of course. When rationing is imposed it may be suddenly. Warning the people that rationing may be coming will cause runs on the food supplies available in markets. Remember the Walmart fights over toilet paper during the Covid lockdown?

The lockdown was created to test Americans reactions and resolve, it served no other purpose than to see how far we can be pushed. Actual rationing will be different, there will be armed guards at the checkouts to deal with dissidents. Cheaters that get caught may well face retribution from the other customers before they have a chance to be safely arrested. Food rationing is serious business.

So once again, don’t expect advance warnings that rationing is coming. It’s far more likely that it will happen overnight. I expect we will be told to download some app on our smartphones (I don’t use one) that will have some comforting name like “Mandatory Emergency Temporary Food Assurance” or something equally stupid and misleading, and when we do, we will be automatically downloaded with our monthly ration quotas. People will rush to download the app once they realize they won’t be able to eat or buy gas unless they do.

Like “temporary” sales and property taxes, the temporary rationing system may turn out to be not only permanent but expanded to how often you can mow your lawn – an exaggeration but you get the point. When government gets control over you, they want to keep it. It’s Power, and politics is 100% about Power.

You’ve been warned.

A LITTLE MORE TRUTH HERE

One of the three US aircraft carriers sent to threaten Iran will be heading back to the US “for maintenance”, with no date announced. So the military power built up against Iran is being dismantled as Pres. Trump says he prefers an economic blockade of Iran as being “safer” and more productive than continued bombing.

The current estimate is that it cost $25 billion to conduct the war to this point and will cost another $25 billion or so to repair all the damage caused by Iran’s missile attacks on US bases. I had no idea Iran was this successful, did you? This must be what Trump meant by it being “safer” to blockade Iran, since it’s believed that Iran still has a huge missile inventory they can use. That does raise another question, why aren’t they using it if they have it? I mean, they’re under a blockade, why aren’t they retaliating if they have them to use?

He insisted that the blockade will continue until Iran agrees to no nuclear program. Since they can’t agree to this because it’s written into their constitution to develop and deploy nuclear weapons as a means of ruling the world, they will have to change their constitution and until they decide to do so they will continue to do all they can to prevent traffic through the Strait.

The US and UK “top diplomats” talked about “the need to open” the Strait of Hormuz on the phone. That’s all. Nothing more, just a blurt that they talked about it. No sense of urgency that I can get from that.

So the truth is that how long it will take to open the Strait is anyone’s guess, but it’s not likely to be at all soon and the longer it takes, the greater the loss of food production will be, along with motor fuel, plastics, many pharmaceuticals and so on.

It’s likely that in most developed nations, especially ones that have their own oil wells like the US, that gas and diesel fuels will be rationed. I remember gas rationing in WW2, and the coupon books. I still have a few that my grandmother had left over when the war ended. A lot of food was also rationed, mostly animal products, meat and butter. No fertilizers means no animal feed, means no animals.

In all the rest of the world, anyone who wants fuel will have to bribe someone, steal it, kill for it or riot in mobs in the effort to get it. Same for food. In the least developed nations, food and fuel will be mostly unavailable except to the privileged few. Black markets will become the normal marketplace. Until starvation reduces the demand sufficiently, anyway.

The US carrier heading back is the George W. Bush, the largest one. For “Maintenance”, huh? For restocking with fresh bombs, missiles, bullets, airplane parts, pilot replacement, food stocks and etc, all the stuff a ship like that uses up on a 10 month war deployment. It doesn’t need maintenance, everything possibly needed to maintain the functionality of that ship is aboard it in triplicate or more, along with a well trained repair crew and anytime one leaves, his replacement is flown in. I was a seagoing Navy sailor for four years, I know how it works.

The reason that ship is going back for restocking and replenishment is because it’s wanted somewhere else. Cuba? Honestly, how much would it really take to conquer Cuba? If that ship shows up off Cuba’s shores and demands their surrender Or Else, the Cubans wouldn’t dare say no.

The only time we see any honesty in government, anywhere, is when some African dictator declares that he intends to kill all the Tsutsis or Hutus or whatever tribe because they’re the enemy tribe, as the bloodbath ensues. But this is only because he’s too stupid to care about diplomacy. Governments hate telling the citizens the truth about anything. In England, where most of the first US settlers came from, only the elite were schooled, ignorance of the masses was desired and one of the reasons so many braved death to emigrate. Also one of the reasons the founders put the Three Rs into the Constitution, much to the chagrin of later government heads.

Of course, public schools are all government funded, so what they teach is government controlled, including US and World history, but nooo, of course it’s not biased out of all recognition.

So today we have the Mainstream Media lying its collective ass off to us to keep our awareness of the reality around us in the Dark Ages, while the Side of Truth and Justice denounces them but does zero to stop them under the guise of Freedom of Speech and the Press, even as those who do expose the truth are prosecuted and imprisoned or just disappear.

No one mentions that if the US does take over Cuba it will probably result in China using that as moral justification to take over Taiwan. That would be interesting. Cuba doesn’t have much to fight back with while Taiwan is armed to the teeth, and they have at least 3 rows of sharp teeth. It might not go well for China, and that might be the reason the US is thinking of assaulting Cuba. But they’ll never tell us that, so I just did.

That’s enough for now. Again, stock up on dry and preserved foods. All foods will be affected, even fish because it takes a lot of fuel to run the fishing boats.
