  • Forgotten now

    Hersh’s latest piece is a lengthy tribute to Daniel Ellsberg. He emphasizes a set of facts that were general knowledge back then, but forgotten now. = = = = = START QUOTE: [The Church Committee] was the most extensive Congressional inquiry into the activities of the CIA since the agency’s beginning. The committee exposed the…

  • Rita’s talent

    Lately I’ve been listening to several Hollywood gossip columns in my OTR bedtime list. The available selection is extremely sparse, only about a dozen altogether. Most are Louella Parsons, with a couple from Erskine Johnson and Nancy Terry. The dates range from ’46 through ’54. Nearly all have one common factor: Rita Hayworth. She was…

  • Nuke news!

    Via StraightArrowNews, a new nuclear power station STARTED OPERATION today! Two more reactors on the site will start up in the next few months! Several other plants are allegedly planned, but this group near Atlanta is the only actual construction and completion in many many many years. Dixie gets it right every time. I made…

  • How do you trust?

    I stopped reading Berenson a long time ago because he seemed to be working both sides of the fence. Peeked at his substack today, and he has moved on to other subjects, which is probably wise. He’s discussing AI and consciousness, but he seems unwilling to trust the real experts. My question to you –…

  • Silly

    Now that the warring lunatic oligarchs are reaching out to the moon again, astronomers are considering a standard time zone for the moon. The goal is to “streamline contact among the many countries”. Why? Astronomers have been using one time and date system for centuries, and computers use one time and date. Giving the moon…

  • Same game

    Headline says it all: Seattle bus driver says fentanyl smoke is making him sick; health dept. says it’s no risk These are the same Public “Health” Murderers who COMMANDED in 2020 that riots were the cure for the “virus”. The riots gave away the game. After the COMMAND, sane people recognized that the only “virus”…

  • Depression?

    A 1933 aerial photo of Enid’s square, shortly after the old courthouse burned and before the WPA built a new one. Note especially the solid rows of parked cars. What depression? This goes along with my earlier personal and numerical observations on the non-depressed parts of the country.

  • Not new, new

    A real artist who has been specifically fighting the virocaust writes an excellent and comprehensive piece on the problems of art. One problem is permanent: Aristocrats have all the money, so aristocratic tastes control the art market. Aristocratic tastes have always been “culturally left”. Another problem is genuinely new: In a culture that’s hostile to…

  • Impressed

    I sat down and listened to this long interview with Nikki Haley. I’m glad I did. She is unquestionably an imperialist neocon, but she’s ALSO an experienced problem-solver who did the right things as governor of SC. Right things = bringing in more real physical business, not sending real business to China. She’s ALSO a…

  • One vs many is a myth

    Organizing some thoughts, might not go anywhere. 1. Of course AI is a tool. The problem is that the full-scale tool is EXCLUSIVELY in the hands of demons, who are using it for demonic purposes. Anyone can set up their own inference engine on their own computer, but ordinary people don’t have unfettered access to…

  • Manual as usual

    Tax time again. So far I’ve managed to avoid all the software solutions. For 53 years I’ve been figuring manually and sending a check. Once around 2010 I tried the IRS’s online E-file service, but it immediately urped when I tried to enter self-employment income from a 1099. Enough of that, back to manual. (Image…

  • NYC envy?

    Vaguely related to recent realization that my surname is an Oil Name…. This 1909 advertisement in an Enid historical FB page shows two impossibly dapper young men attending an impossibly elegant party at the Waldorf Astoria in NYC. The caption says: The men in the scene are wearing Benjamin Full Dress and Tuxedo Suits. The…

  • More shifting factions

    The defeat of Zombie Lightfoot in Chicago seems to have caught the attention of D politicians. They totally ignored crime for decades, casting Law And Order as a Repooflican conspiracy theory. Biden has taken an unusual step, intended to send a message to all mayors. He overturned a Defunding law passed by the DC city…

  • Quantum broke metrology

    As long as I’m ranting about Quantum Quackery…. Some of the antivax data-gatherers have bought into the virus cult’s demonic measurement system. They’re misusing “cases” to relabel ordinary illness and death as vax illness and death, just as the demons use “cases” to relabel ordinary illness and death as “virus” illness and death. There’s no…

  • FDR day

    Today is the 90th anniversary of the day when America’s brief blessed lucid interval started. The lucid interval lasted a little more than 12 years, followed by unbroken and constantly accelerating demonic monstrosity. Will we ever get another break from hell? I doubt it. Some factions of the power structure appear to be moving in…
