All those new doctors, nurses and engineers will be there to pick up the slack, I'm sure. /s

He was a school principal. How does a former school principal not know exactly what that little red box is?

Good to see that he has the mentality of the kids he used to rule over - "I don't like what's happening! I know! I'll pull the fire alarm..."

Isn't it all due to people making money on "shorting" the stocks? If I remember correctly (from the GME thing), one aspect of Big Finance bets that Budweiser stock is going to go down in price. Another aspect of Big Finance advises the company to do something incredibly stupid (Budweiser - "How about putting a tranny in your ads?"). People stop buying the products, the stock price tanks and the people who shorted the stock pick up all their winnings.

Then they find another company to loot and repeat the process. At some further point, other Financial Parasites swoop in and buy up what's left of the company for pennies on the dollar and either try to make a go of it or just sell off the buildings/machinery/land for more $$$.

Just a couple of things that were on the Conspiracy subreddit the morning after the shooting:

There was a link to an Israeli newspaper that said that the shooter had been captured and he was an Arabic man. I think they also said that he was in his 30s. I have no link to that and I really wish I had grabbed a screenshot.

Then there was this picture of "first responders" that was also posted:

Responders

I don't know what it is about that picture but something about it just screamed "LARP" to me. The guys are dressed in all that gear but there's just something "off" about them, much like they were poorly-chosen extras. They're just too short and nerdy-looking. I don't know. Maybe that's the way things are done in Las Vegas?

Plot twist: That whole post was written by AI.

How could they tell??

I was reading some things recently from a psychologist who works with abusive men and was astonished (not really) at how much of the psychology of those men lined up perfectly with the things that troons believe. Things like "the world must revolve around me at all times" and "you always have to validate the things I say and do" - to the point where the LoonyTroons can even justify violence against women who disagree with them, just as an abusive husband can claim that it's the woman's fault if he hits her.

And that's really the issue - certain men have figured out that they can use the same techniques (like gaslighting) to actually abuse society instead of just the one or two sad women who are unfortunate enough to be around them.

I still have the strong belief that a lot of the trannies that we see online now NEVER leave their homes dressed like women. It's all a LARP that they perform for social media because it's safe for them and gives them power without risk. The moment it becomes "uncool", the ones who are just performing will be able to put it all away and just continue being broken men.

If he did pass away, it must have been the quietest funeral ever, especially for a former president/statesman.

That article even says "as a nation mourns" but if you search for "May 20, 2023", there's no mention at all of his passing. Would it not have been the biggest news story of the week?

(Not discounting the idea that he passed more recently and they're "keeping him on ice" until they need a distraction).

I just like to think of all of them as "Collectivists". The people who don't follow that rhetoric would then be "Individualists".

And here's the kicker - Individualists can work as a collective. Happens all the time with people working for a common cause, even if it's just people working at their jobs or getting together to fix something.

Collectivism claims to have no room for Individuals at all, yet they constantly hoist up different people as being "special" or "expert" or just somehow "better" than others. For some reason, they just never want to be that shapeless grey mass of "everyone is equal" that they should be.

Old media is dying and they're pretending that it's still viable. Over the next decade (or sooner- who knows??), I think legacy media - TV, newspapers, etc will be done. People are just going to age-out and the internet will continue to take over.

It gets pretty confusing at times. I wonder if things like this are part of some psychological breakdown method - two wholly-opposite points of view being expressed by the same people.

Cults usually have some sort of component that breaks down a person's mind so they are more malleable.

Remember when they tried to paint the Truckers' convoy as "Nazi antisemitic everything-phobes"?

You'd think Canada couldn't get more embarrassing but as the saying goes "The barrel - it has no bottom!"

I remember the local unions complaining when the first ATM opened in my city. They said that it would cause tellers to lose their jobs and that banks would shrink their operations, possibly closing down a lot of local branches.

Of course, it was all derided in the media - "No way will it put tellers out of work!"

Funny how those things happen.

That was something that I had to learn. I had been raised with the idea that all modern art was a scam but once I saw a few pieces in real life - some of them on huge canvases - I got the point. The photo process and shrinking them down to book size just didn't do them justice.

It isn't always that way, certainly. I can look at one modern piece and enjoy it then turn around and laugh at some piece of pretension that's in the same gallery.

I paint and I know a few artists. It's an interesting subculture, for sure.

In one of the China Insight videos on YT (about 1 year ago?), they were talking about a Chinese businessman who'd had several (8?) transplants. I know someone who had a stem cell transplant and has had major side effects from it (graft vs.host). Has to take certain meds for it, etc.

If you keep getting transplants, you wouldn't necessarily be getting them from the same person, so how are their bodies not completely messed up from trying to reject so many foreign cells?? And that's not even going into scarring and adhesions from all the surgeries.

Someone here mentioned this recently about other pols - what's with the hand waving?? It looked as though she was trying to do ASL at the same time as she's speaking. Is it supposed to be some psychological trick where if she waves her fingers around, people will fall for what she's saying?

Drip drip drip...

Considering how fast the news cycle is now, if a lot of things were dropped all at once, I feel it would have almost no impact. Sure, there'd be several days of yelling but mainstream/social media would do their best to suppress whatever dropped and it would just sort of be...absorbed and dismissed. Not by some people (the people here for example), but moreso the masses.

But if it's leaked out a bit at a time, people will keep talking about it because it will be in smaller, easier to digest bits. Sort of priming the pump so that when it's time to drop bigger things, it won't be as easy to dismiss.

They'll dig up their skeletons and say "That's a man!" If they still have some of their flesh, they'll probably think we had some sort of weird religious cult thing going on where men and women had their body parts lopped off in a bizarre ritual...

...oh.

The next active ingredient will probably be named something "sillsioctvanimab" but will actually be just glucose.

All those guys in the early 20th century that were called "quacks" and "snake oil salesmen" - how does anyone not understand that they just shifted and took over the pharmaceutical companies?? With all the things we are learning now, it's so much easier to see how scientists, corporations and govt "watchdogs" could be bribed or blackmailed into looking the other way.

People are more and more paranoid about their health than ever (hey covid!). Standards in research/testing etc are collapsing. It's a "perfect storm" for just shoving out placebos (like glucose or chalk) for big BIG $$$ because it can play on peoples' fears.

We got to watch about 63 of them go over one night. They were in groups of 7 and I think I counted 9 of them. Quite the sight for a skywatcher!

They would have been loaded with asbestos since it was part of the construction style at the time. Asbestos wrap for all the steam heating pipes and related equipment. Asbestos in the acoustic ceiling tiles and possibly the flooring as well. And I'm certain that I've read that part of the structural steel itself was coated with spray-on asbestos. An absolute nightmare to remediate.

Trump, as a real estate developer and someone who appears to have been interested in architecture, would have known all of this. That's why I feel it's important to listen to (and hear) what he was saying that day.

A good man, doing the right thing.

You can pry that glass of delicious milk from my cold dead hands. It's not just the calcium - it's a decent source of B vitamins and provides some amino acids.

So what does milk have to do with "white supremacy"? Well, if you can tolerate it, drink lots of milk and improve your health and your state of mind. There. Now you can be "supreme".

Hope that free donut was worth it.

This idea was floating around on 4chan a couple of weeks back. (It was in something that someone posted here).

Is Clott Adams a secret Channer??

edit to add: It's a great idea, though.
