Hit first and hit hard
DeSantis is ‘pivoting’ toward his real intention now. None of these candidates were really applying for the job of president. Everyone knew that TrumpBiden is the sole candidate and the guaranteed heir. (Doesn’t matter which label it’s wearing, TrumpBiden is one monster.) Auditioning is normal. Whenever the incumbent is guaranteed, a flock of newcomers jump…

Guaranteed suckers
Via Protos: = = = = = START QUOTE: The assets of a husband-and-wife-run online church have been frozen after they allegedly used the word of God to trick Christians into investing in a fake crypto before spending $1.3 million in investor funds on luxury goods. Law360 reports that the duo are alleged to have…

Hank and Tom go fishing
I’ve been trying for years to get a clear picture of Henry Ford. He was massively complicated and entirely simple all at once. He hated FDR and accomplished the same ends as FDR. (I’m pretty sure Frank understood Hank better than Hank understood Frank.) Ford was America’s most effective and benevolent socialist and “civil rights”…

No point?
I used to think that gathering and publishing facts was useful. 2020 crashed the myth. Most normal humans knew the truth, many of us were desperately trying to publish the truth, and NOTHING CHANGED. The latest item from Brownstone reminded me of the futility. We cannot just delete the page from the history books, as…

It’s more about the sand
Everyone seems to recognize that Spokane has stopped bothering with snow removal. I don’t really trust my own judgment since I’m a walker, not a driver, and I don’t see areas outside my neighborhood. Still, I noticed the change in 2010. Before then, Spokane had used ample quantities of basalt sand on the roads, which…

Crucial article.
This piece by Nathan Pinkoski in Compact may be the most important article of the year. More than justifies the price of the subscription! He explains what REALLY happened in 1968. The conventional account is intentionally wrong about LBJ, Nixon and Wallace. I was deeply involved in this shit as a hippie idiot, and Pinkoski’s…

Shadow play
In this podcast Mattingly covers a repeated topic. Africa is the future of religion and the future of civilization. Africa is where families are still functional and still having kids. Mattingly quotes yet again the African Anglican bishop who was meeting with Brits several decades ago. After listening to their adherence to Innovative Disruption, keeping…

Raking record
Time to start the roof-raking record for this winter. As always, this should be in my private daily worklog, but I started doing it here, so I’ll continue the tradition. Last winter had an average amount of snow, but most of it was spaced out in small bursts with melting between, so I only needed…

Who’s really Informed?
Random pointless rant. It’s been clear for a LONG time that the “informed citizen” myth is just a sales pitch for Deepstate propaganda. We’re supposed to pay attention to the mainstream media and attend college so we can be “enlightened informed citizens who are capable of participating intelligently in elections”. This nonsense runs deep on…

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Tesla owners find that batteries don’t work in cold weather. = = = = = START QUOTE: This week’s frigid winter conditions exposed the shortcomings of certain electric vehicles, particularly Teslas. In the Oak Brook suburb of Chicago, Illinois, where temperatures have routinely dipped way below freezing, local media reported public charging stations turning into…

Another argument for Foy
Compact Mag has a powerful article on an obscure British scandal. What happens when you trust the machine more than humans? Lots of innocent people end up in jail. In 2000 the British post office hired Fujitsu to build a software system linking all the post office branches in stores and other locations to the…

Overthinking
Protos tracks the predictable “sides” responding to the SEC’s approval of the Blackrock takeover of bitcoin. (After a premature front-running “fake” message gave the shorts a chance to move the price.) Both “sides” are overthinking. Ockham. Get rid of the pinhead angels. It’s quite simple. Larry Fink wants to own the bitcoin market, therefore Larry…

Shorters are the worst.
Bastard. In 2020 he was fiercely advocating more lockdowns and more quarantines. Now he’s helping to spread silly “anti” rumors about the same things he helped to create in 2020. Short. Short. Short. He was shorting normal business in 2020, now he’s shorting Pharma. Shorters are the worst criminals. They sometimes tell the truth, which…

Finally a bit of sanity!
Elle Griffin writes some SANITY about college. Even better, she’s writing about a FEW colleges that have reverted to the Anderson model. They’re not tiny startups; they’re big universities with lots of money available. = = = = = START QUOTE: BYU is followed by a dozen colleges and universities hoping to do the same—among…

Vivek drops
Drops out and endorses Trump. Not a shock but still disappointing. I’d be happier if he quit without betraying his followers. He’s too realistic to believe he ever had a chance. From the start he was obviously auditioning or rehearsing for something else, probably not a conventional political office. I still like Vivek. He brought…
