Cancelleds converging as usual
Shocked shocked shocked: Bari Weiss left the old dying media and built a new media empire in the fake “independent” media so she could make more money. Now she has sold her “independent” “Free” “Press” to CBS so she can return to the old dying media with a more lucrative contract. The purpose of the…

Must be end of the month
How do you know it’s the end of a month? Aside from the increase in drug overdoses when the EBT cards are issued, the most reliable online signal is Substack screwing up its UI. Normally they mess with the CSS formatting so the page looks random and impossible to read. This time they left the…

Trump is a normal US president.
Canadians are working together to develop a newly designed nation. They’re doing it both officially and personally. It’s a fine thing to watch. MANY countries have been forced to develop their own best skills when we blockaded them. We pulled the same nasty trick on Cuba in 1960, Persia in 1980, and Russia in 2000.…

Rant on “cybersecurity”
Forcing us to change a password every month is like the old ’50s Loyalty Oaths. The oaths were NOT meant to catch real Russian spies. First, real spies for any country are expert liars. They have no compunction about faking an oath to maintain a cover. Spying is lying. Second, the KGB, like all professional…

Pick a side.
Canada and EU are both sticking firmly to the irrational hatred of Russia. They won’t be able to achieve full independence from the US monster as long as they maintain the CORE INSANE BELIEF of US imperialism. Europe, of course, has been hating Russia and trying to invade it for hundreds of years. Napoleon, Kaiser…

All E all the time
Elon owns the conversation. First he owned the conversation in the auto industry, just as GM once did. Every move he made was copied by others, even when it clearly harmed them. The larger companies adopted EVs and lost massive amounts of money, as Elon intended. He also owned the conversation in electronics, as GE…

Same rule
Note at substack: 4 years ago, I watched some conservative friends join the QAnon cult to find companionship and a community for their children. Today, I’m watching some liberal friends join the anti-Semite cult to find the same thing. Well, if companionship and respect were more available OUTSIDE of cults, cults wouldn’t flourish. Cults are…

Color revolution or opportunity?
The hippie movement of the 60s hated profit. In the 70s the stock criminals took over. They also hate profit, and destroy businesses that dare to make a profit. The Tech Tyrants smoothly morphed out of the hippies, and started in the same Frisco. Modern “leftists” continue to hate profit, which continues to make it…

Common sense from courts
Bitcoin fraudsters always pretend their schemes are decentralized and uncontrolled. Two different courts applied common sense to this criminality. = = = = = First, Coinbase is trying to argue that DeFi networks are simply a form of speech, since they don’t have a central controller, so they don’t need to register as securities. Courts…

Not new!
People are constantly complaining that nobody reads books any more. Da Yoots are stuck to their screens, and only the ancient geezers read books. In the old days everybody read books! Nope. Vintage.es has some London street scenes from the 1960s, focusing on street book vendors. They were well-equipped, with customized trailers and carts full…

Interesting!
This is INTERESTING from a Speech & Hearing viewpoint! RFK’s relatives are disowning him, which isn’t surprising. In this clip one of his sisters is interviewed, and she has EXACTLY THE SAME spasmodic dysphonia! Normally it’s acquired through stress or ‘unknown origin’, but this must be genetic. = = = = = The Rising hosts,…

Astrology again
Beautiful example of astrology proved by the daily journal. This week I’m having lots of sudden panic attacks. The external reason is real enough. At the end of June a hard session in the dentist chair left the neck and shoulders tensed up, causing enhanced balance problems. Vestibular crap often triggers panic. Then a week…

Bootleggers and Baptists
Europe continues buying oil and gas from Russia while pretending to obey our monstrous sanctions. Euro countries are simply buying the stuff from India and China, adding a middleman profit. Russia still gets paid the same, while Europe pays more to keep the lights on. Sanctions NEVER harm the target government. Sanctions ALWAYS harm the…

Transformed
Substack Notes started as a copy of Twitter. Now it has become a precise mirror image of Reddit. Both consist mainly of horrible can’t-unsee-it pictures atop blindly partisan insults related to This Week’s One Official Topic. Only difference: Reddit takes the D side and Substack takes the R side. This week’s One Official Topic is…

Perfect repetition
I’m infinitely tired of “conservatives” calling China communist. China is just Chinese. In terms of ideology, China is mercantilist, not communist. China is EXACTLY REPEATING what Britain did in the 1800s. Britain was the world’s factory, sweatshopping millions of peasants for low wages. Britain colonized tropical countries for resources, letting the countries run their own…
