Bitcoin = pot.
3/19 was my jail anniversary, so I was thinking about the process as usual. New click: The bitcoin movement of this decade is IDENTICAL to the hippie movement of the ’60s. High-status influencers advertise the stuff and sell the stuff under CIA auspices, while pretending to be against the government. Alienated youngsters buy the stuff,…

Personal superstitions
I pay attention to personal superstitions because they’re actual learnings. The old leftover fake superstitions are just tools for Cool People to mock Uncool People. Incidentally, I cited the “bird flu” superstition in the linked 2005 item, which turned out to be prophetic…. or more likely I was seeing the start of the “bioterror” holocaust…

Wrong word, same advice?
Randomly noted in a Reddit topic of ‘useful quotations’… How to survive in a tyranny: Keep your mouth closed and your eyes open. In 1969, Warden Copley gave the new intakes his standard speech. Imagine Edward G. Robinson as a gangster and you’ve got Warden Copley. I heard him say: Keep your mouth closed and…

Still chewing on this….
I’ve been trying to untangle the two factions of opposition to the “virus” tyranny. I was never bothered much by vax. It’s the ONLY part of this monstrosity that belongs in real medicine and real public health, and the ONLY part that may actually work against a real virus if there is one. Taking one…

Might be doing some good
Kim Iversen is one of the few former journalists who is not obviously fake. At least she hasn’t converged to the establishment YET. Here she’s interviewing Jose Vega, a NYC activist who constantly attends meetings and rallies to shout POINTED QUESTIONS at fake progressives. I don’t know if he’s doing any good, but he makes…

Badoleth
A podcast by lawyers Barro and White joins the universal Lawyers Chorus trying to shut Sammy’s stupid mouth. They bring up a crucially important point about the Professional Criminal genotype. Semiquote: I must admit it’s my fault, because I’m always out there saying don’t go on Twitter and talk about crimes, don’t go on the…

What is a reporter for?
Matt Taibbi is following all the bad rules of “journalism”, which are the same as the rules of Deepstate. Protect sources above all. Never reveal anything that your source doesn’t want to reveal. Well then, what the fuck is your PURPOSE? You’re not reporting, you’re just an unpaid (or maybe paid) part of Deepstate. You’re…

Mercy for orphans
Sammy’s got a Substack now, opened just a few hours ago. In his first post he puts out some carefully lawyered-up caveats, and then bashes the bankruptcy CEO for not undoing Sammy’s crimes fast enough. Later: Various discussers are trying to figure out Sammy’s motives. At least one lawyer has already given up on him,…

Not woke, just literati
Kurt Mahlburg at MercatorNet is complaining about woke dictionaries. In 2020, Merriam-Webster infamously updated its entry for female to include “having a gender identity that is the opposite of male”. Now the online edition of the Cambridge Dictionary has gone one better: in addition to being “an adult female human being”, a woman is now…

New thought on experiential lessons
Shkreli’s advice to Sammy got me thinking again about my 1969 jail experience and the BIG lessons learned. I kept the lessons about basic human nature, but I lost the lesson about government. (I restored the lesson much later after throwing away the TV.) Questions: 1. How did I lose it? 2. Why was this…

Advice for Sammy
Shkreli gives excellent advice to Sammy. First plead guilty and sing, though it’s already too late for the full effect of confessing. Then try to form a more masculine front for prison. Shkreli gets down and dirty in this department around 27 minutes. “He is an effeminate guy, and his demeanor is not the sort…

Year-end shit
Not in a mood for a year-end or Xmas piece. I’ll repeat 2020’s piece, which still holds true, then add one vaguely quasi-semi-hemi-demi-positivishesque note. = = = = = START REPRINT: Guess I should continue the habit of doing a year-end dump. Not worth it this time. 2020 needs to be thrown away and skipped,…

Gangsters take care of their own
Sammy has been released on bail IN THE CUSTODY OF HIS PARENTS. This is like releasing Thomas Gambino to the custody of Carlo. Looking up more about Thomas, the parallel is strong. Thomas played the Effective Altruism game to the hilt. Got a college education and engaged in massive “philanthropy” while stealing and killing. =…

Works wonders
Via Reuters: After two days in a real Bahamas jail, Sammy has decided to let US extradite him. Jail works wonders on spoiled brats. A real threat of punishment also works wonders on young professional criminals like Sammy who are accustomed to bullying and cheating through all obstacles. Reminds me of my experience on the…

Spoiled brat
Supposedly Sam’s lawyers tried to prevent his arrest and jailing by pleading vegan and ADHD. He won’t be able to get his chosen diet in jail, and he shouldn’t be jailed because he needs his Adderall or whatever. Fortunately the Bahamas authorities didn’t listen. A couple weeks in a REAL jail might do him a…
