  • When bureaucrats ignore…

    When bureaucrats stop obeying the government, you know the gradient of power has shifted. I observed this in the first months of Trump’s admin. The Gaian wackos in the “weather” bureau paused their Gaian wackdom immediately after he took office in January. They weren’t sure if he intended to continue the normal Federal project of…

  • First mention of bitcoin

    Linked in previous about Sweden, worth a reprint. From 2013, the first time I wrote about bitcoin. I’ve been citing some items from 2014, which weren’t really the earliest. = = = = = START REPRINT: It’s always fun to watch the ‘paranoids’ failing to be paranoid when it counts. Consider the popularity of Bitcoin…

  • Bravo for Sweden

    Sweden took the sane path in the “virus” holocaust, though perhaps a bit too cautiously. Now Sweden is going all in with pure sanity on the “green” holocaust. Their government has officially discarded the UN’s Agenda 2030 genocide. Formerly Sweden was moving faster than others toward the Revelations vision of chips in your head and…

    EnidBuzz asks What’s one thing everyone should have in their junk drawers? Most answers were practical and prosaic. This one is brilliant: $2000. Just in case you need to buy more junk.

  • SUN!

    For the first time in several weeks the SUN is popping out, starting to dry things. Polistra and friends salute the SUN! Reached 49 degrees. I walked without a coat, and the ice cream man is driving around the neighborhood!

  • Buy or steal?

    When a Deepstater apologizes, he never apologizes for his own crimes. He apologizes for shit that happened a long time ago involving people who died a long time ago. It’s always a frameup, and it’s especially easy when the framees are dead. Old thefts are a prime target of apologies. Euros stealing land from natives…

  • Nerd burglars

    Speaking of typical and atypical… Model railroad fans aren’t typical criminals. A young man and woman decided to break into the Railroad Museum in Enid late at night, and stole some model railroad equipment. At one point they looked directly into the security camera, sealing their fate. (Nerds ought to know about security cameras!) The…

  • The Fog Month

    We’ve been in a typical January fog pattern, which is a relief after a windstorm then supercold then big snow. I didn’t realize that 1/3 of the country is also in an atypical January fog pattern. This Iowa meteorologist is keeping track of The Month Of Fog, with maps showing the Dense Fog Alerts, constant…

  • Couldn’t be Spanish.

    I heard the Ripley item about the mysterious Mexican president Comonfort again and got puzzled again. The Ripley audio is unclear, and the announcer didn’t always handle foreign words well. Google filled in the proper name after I typed ‘Mexican president Ignacio C’. Comonfort couldn’t be Spanish. Was it from the native tribes, or a…

    Gov Abbott of Texas is the only modern Repooflican willing to use effective tactics. He wasn’t as firm as DeSantis against the imprisonment and strangulation of the world, but he’s been remarkably CREATIVE in dealing with the migrant invasion. Dropshipping the migrants to the demonic mayors who claimed to want them was the PERFECT tactic.…
