Not crude, just dumb
Via DailyMail: = = = = = START QUOTE: A CNN segment discussing the impending prison sentence of disgraced biotech entrepreneur Elizabeth Holmes took a strange turn, when a guest went rogue… Larry Levine, who is described as a ‘consultant who assists prospective inmates transition to prison life,’ was invited on to discuss his predictions…

Good prison
Reading the DailyMail account of Bryan federal prison where Holmes is starting her time. I’m impressed! Bryan is a GOOD PRISON, doing pretty much everything the right way. = = = = = START QUOTE: New inmates normally spend their first three months working in the kitchen, which is considered one of the most demanding…

He says what I say
Arthur Brooks gives the best possible job advice. This is especially important for Uncool people who are NOT going to get satisfaction from the social side of life. Brooks emphasizes COMPLETION: = = = = = START QUOTE: “Maybe you’ll work in your major — probably not. Maybe you’ll land your dream job — probably…

Better argument
I haven’t bothered to notice the moon-landing theories until now. I saw no convincing reasons to doubt the conventional story. Now the former head of Russia’s space agency asks several questions based on his own experience and knowledge. 1. He was thoroughly familiar with the condition of cosmonauts. When they returned from a long trip…

Good question from Sailer
Sailer asks a damn good question: = = = = = START QUOTE: The massive deinstitutionalization of the 1960s–1980s is now widely considered a blunder, but why did it seem like a good idea at the time? We need to consider why progressive reformers in the English-speaking world turned as fervently against lunatic asylums in…

Trust the gut
Last night I found the four ‘banned’ Blogspot posts that led me to switch over to WordPress. I republished them here, then immediately had bad migraine/vestibule trouble. So I unpublished again. Old prison advice: Don’t look back. At any rate, running through the four items verified that they didn’t contain any unique opinions or information.…

Chief Trumpiac
Reading the full story of Chief Pontiac’s famous lacrosse game. There’s a lot of nasty stuff that didn’t get into the usual history. Pontiac was ready, willing, and able to do anything and everything, and had a unique talent for spine-chilling horrible torture. The next day, the Indians rooted Henry from his hiding place. For…

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,…
