HOW the WHO is Funnier than SNL, when Saturday Night Live was Good: Polishing Turds
Indeed, grasshopper. Stand by for a bit of history, perspective, integration, and dot-connecting devoid of wingnut conspiracy stuff. Serious and sober; but funny if you catch the drift. Reserved for my besties.Read More
Sà-wàt-dee bpee mài (Happy Songkran) — Thai New Year 2565
Previous posts: Songkran 2021 – Isaan Village StyleHappy New Year 2565 April 13-15 marks the new year for Thai people. Never having been colonized, they use their own calendar—over 500 years older than our Jesus-based calendar. Theirs is Buddha based. They do, however, conform to Western standards of January 1 as the official start of every new year. It's also observed in Laos, Cambodia, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, parts of northeast India, parts of Vietnam, and Xishuangbanna, China (which borders Laos and Myanmar). Here's…Read More
2,400 Employees Is A Lot When There’s Nothing To Worry About
There’s a true story out there, likely never reported on even Fox—just as bad—News, that certain entities had sought to obtain all the documents from Pfizer for their SAFE AND EFFECTIVE!!! mRNA jab that got authorized for “emergency use” way back in December of 2020. We’re nearly a year and a half into that “emergency.”…Read More
The Best Way To Look On The Bright Side For Prosperity and Happiness
The introductionPrinting presses, mimeographs, and ownersPeople who DRS — who Don't Read ShitThe annual flu shot LOL fraud decades in the running...So nothing is newMy point about the bright sideCake icing conclusion There's no serious dispute that global life in general has been a disappointment for over a couple of years. Liars abound who assert it hasn't affected them, or they did even better...as though the only time they're really well off is when everyone…Read More

Ukraine’s Zelenskyy TL;DR: We Surrender
As cable-news Generals endlessly pontificate about how fucked Russia COULD BE!!! they get undercut by a horse’s mouth because they’re stupid, have zero integrity, are in the pay, and are politically oriented first and foremost. Laughably, the “commander-in-chief” (see short vid at the end) is gonna roll out TOUGH NEW SANCTIONS!!! that are GONNA HIT…Read More
The Story Of My Financial Collapse
That's an email I received early morning my time today, from Mark. Self explanatory. It was in reply to the final thing. This is where I have completed all arrangements on my end and forward the necessary documents. He asked if that was it, I replied. Grand Solmar Land's End Resort & Spa is a very special place. Go ahead. Click the link and be fucking amazed. I own a piece of that. I have…Read More
Can’t Believe How Much I Love This. People In Shanghai Literally Starving
You can click to read the whole thread. Ha, you’re New World Order is beginning to look like really old-world orders we’ve all seen in movies. Perhaps a good question to ask is how much you want your non-Chinese governments and companies to hob-nob or worse, support the ants, bees, and borg of China and…Read More
The Comprehensive And Real Story You’ve Never Heard About Russia and Ukraine
In my last post about our dismal state of affairs, I got a comment shooting out a link, and I read it this morning. Here’s a money quote. As a former head of the Warsaw Pact forces in the Swiss strategic intelligence service, I observe with sadness—but not astonishment—that our services are no longer able…Read More
Our Dismal State of Affairs
Woke up this morning feeling the best I have in three weeks. This appears to be finally over completely. A follow-up post on that in a few days…to explain how I finally figured out an ending to it on my own, with help from a friend. I sensed the end was coming when after three…Read More
NFTs Are Dumb: Here’s Why
As many readers know, I did a deep dive into cryptocurrency a few years back and in fact, had purchased an initial Bitcoin long before that, in 2011, so 11 years now. And I'm still as confident in at least Bitcoin and Etherium as ever and hold some of each. I think there's good reasons for doing so and I treat it the same as I would holding gold in a vault. When I first…Read More
Permanent Crisis Is The New Normal — Prosper Anyway #6 — Just Stop Believing
Permanent Crisis Is The New Normal — Prosper Anyway #5 — What Does Your Phone Really Cost You? Introductory Post and Table of Contents (Public Access) I'm not fond of the concepts of skeptic, critic, curmudgeon, et all. The best I can do is misanthropy. It used to be focussed and targeted. Since Covid, and now, Rukrane, my misanthropy is blurry and generalized. It's now truly blunt; transformed into an instrument of war. Don't you…Read More
Alopecia Will Be The Next Global Crisis; Thanks Oscars
Well, unless it’s just as OK for one black guy to cold-cock another on national TV as it is to 2 or 3 pop ’em in the hood. I don’t need to say much about this but, Smith’s wife has been open about her problem, she has her own professional career, she puts herself out…Read More
Foo Fighters’ Taylor Hawkins’ Death Just Another Rocker OD?
Never been a fan, been aware of their—to me—pop-like music, which I can enjoy from time to time but can not really be a big fan of. “Pop” means popular, and that generally gets a meh-no from me. I tend to associate popular with dull and stupid, though while recognizing that nuggets of exception exist.…Read More
Oliver Stone’s Ukraine On Fire (And Other Stuff)
No truly thinking person wants to restrict relevant information on any topic of interest. Remember back in the Paleo Daze when many of us often exposed ourselves to things put out by vegans? Dr. Michael Greger was one such MD vegan for me. For one, his videos are rather entertaining, he's very engaging with good delivery, and so that made it easy to access really decent info on things like blood sugar regulation and control…Read More
Russia and Ukraine Again — But My Takes
The best thing about the mess is that it came right in time as everyone was getting bored with Covid. So this is a mostly-funny post. Alex Berenson has a Word Perfect new piece about that: The Covid vaccine era is ending already. So delicious. So many levels. So essentially Darwinian. I laughed throughout. Schadenfreude. For me, it's at least a welcome relief, because tech and media have made it such that all the performative…Read More
The Amazing Bacon of…Thailand!
The pork in Thailand is astounding. For two years I've asked around and have been told a million stories, but nothing I can even begin to verify. My favorite is that Germans showed them how to raise good pork and they took it from there. Can't verify it, so it's just one of many stories. But it doesn't matter because the pork is good anyway. Living in Thailand quickly disabuses you of any notion that…Read More
Steady Dose Vitamin C Love
A fun one to put out there. Wholesome. Something to take your mind off perpetual global crisis and refocus on what it is you truly want in your one and only life. ...I arose yesterday morning, Friday, and did what I do the first thing every Friday morning (it's ritual now and sometimes I even know what day it is here, solely because of it). I make coffee and enjoy Mike Eades' latest issue of…Read More
The NATO Elephant In The Room
My problem with this is the same problem I’ve been having with every “crisis” for years, especially pronounced since 2015 and Trump. Approved Narrative Only. Back in the day—even though the media was left and overwhelmingly Democrat—there was only the prevailing narrative. Even to Democrats, the notion of Approved Narrative would have seemed as something…Read More
Permanent Crisis Is The New Normal — Prosper Anyway #5 — What Does Your Phone Really Cost You?
Permanent Crisis Is The New Normal — Prosper Anyway #4 — What Others Think Of You Is None Of Your Business Even if it's only $50, what is the real cost? I got my first mobile phone from the Cellular One outlet in a Circuit City store in late 1992. It was a Motorola but not like the super big ones in American Psycho. (408) XXX-4167. I still remember the number because it's still my…Read More
