Katyn massacre
This is my brother-in-law. Shame he still votes Democrat, and probably always will.
Fun activity...find the oldest cemetery in your area, and walk around and take note of the birth and death dates. I bet you'll find a lot of people who lived to very old age there.
Both of my grandmothers kept very detailed family histories and did a lot of research going back hundreds of years. Most of my ancestors not killed in wars or by diesase (or died in childhood) lived to be in their 90s, and even some well into their 100s. And they were all ordinary people, not elites, from different backgrounds (some were in Europe, some were in America from very early on, some were Native American). I wonder how much that was the norm, and we just don't know about it because the average is skewed by infant mortality, war, and deaths in childbirth.
I used to take my pet goldfish with me wherever I flew when I was in college. She had a 1L plastic travel jug. The security people would hold her for me when I went through the metal detectors. Everyone got a kick out of it. Can't do that today.
Our Georgia Power bill was $478 this month, the highest we have ever seen. My parents (who live 7 miles away) had a $254 bill for almost the same exact usage, from another service provider. GA Power doesn't break down the bill, but on the Public Service Commission's website, they do, and we found out they are charging us $180 in fuel surcharge, environmental fee and compensation for building a nuclear plant. We can't switch providers either, it's monopolized by location. It's really quite disgusting.
You may be thinking of Kennesaw. They passed a law that requires every homeowner to own and maintain a firearm. Doesn't require them to carry though. Still, home invasions dropped something like 80-something-% after the law was passed.
I have had exactly one flu shot. My freshman year of college, I went into the on-campus health center for something unrelated...the nurse convinced me to get a flu shot because final exams were a few days away. Well, I got the flu, from the flu shot (no one else I knew got sick). So I had to take my finals sick as a dog. Never again. My mom used to get one every year. I have finally broken her of that routine, yay! She used to get sick all the time. Now I don't think she's even had a cold for over a year.
My husband bought some Panacur to use in an aquarium (to get rid of flatworms...worked great). He got it off of Amazon, and one of the product reviews at the time was someone who had posted before and after x-rays of her dog's cancer. After 1 month, the tumor had shrunk in size to half. My husband screen-shot the review, which was a good idea, because that review has now mysteriously disappeared from the product page.
I watched something on this...at least from what I saw, it's not really near any houses or anything, and looks like it is being contained pretty well. This may have changed, but I interpret this as a purposefully set fire that doesn't really threaten anything in an attempt to show that "see, we didn't cause the Lahaina fire, these things happen all the time!"
Bingo. Happened to my husband. He never registered to vote until 2008, but found out a couple years ago from looking at his voter record webpage, that he actually "voted" in November 1996. Hmm, wonder who that vote went to.
I'm very surprised they haven't been banned, since it's the kind of book they don't want anyone reading because you are absolutely right, these books would wake people up to what communism is really like. Where my husband went to college (Oglethorpe U) it was required reading for everyone as part of their core curriculum. That was 20 years ago though, not sure if they still have it on the syllabus.
Yeah, I'm really actually kinda glad that my mother's parents died before Covid...her mom died in 2019. She was in a nursing home, and would have died from loneliness during lockdowns too. So sorry to hear that your grandmother did. It is just criminal.
I've also gotten off of eating out (having a wheat allergy makes avoiding eating out easy), and I've cut out most sugar, sugar substitutes, and seed oils. I had 2 bad experiences with medications in the past so I'm not on any pharmaceuticals now. I haven't been to the doctor in years. I have gotten my parents off of all pills too. I glad they're awake and saw the Covid hypocrisy and it woke them up to how most medicines don't cure or prevent. My dad takes ivermectin every week for his allergic asthma (and got off of a steroid inhaler and high blood pressure meds by doing so), and he never gets sick, and my mom hasn't gotten sick since she stopped taking the flu shot. I'm hoping both my parents will follow in their parents' footsteps and live into their 90s too. They'll both be 70 next month, and are quite healthy. By contrast, my husband's father died when he was 70, from kidney failure caused by high blood pressure medication.
All 4 of my grandparents lived into their 90s. My grandfather just died, at a few months shy of 96. My grandmother is still alive and 94. Nearly all of my relatives before them lived into their late 80s to 90s, and some even over 100, back in the 1800s, and if any did die early it was from unnatural causes. No vaccines or modern pharmaceuticals, all real food. Nowadays, I've also seen many people dying in their 70s. I don't think we'll ever see that kind of longevity anymore unless people get off this "modern healthcare and modern diet" crap.
Good! I'm in Cobb, and I'm glad my property taxes due in a couple of months won't be helping to pay her salary.
Yep, this is how it works. And the sad thing is, that most people aren't aware of the scheme, and so they believe that this really bad art that is being pushed is "good" art, and they should force themselves to like it in order to appear cultured. I used to run an art gallery (not by choice). The number of people who came in and oohed and aahed at the abstract, haphazard paint splatters on a canvas because they thought it was so beautiful and deep (the stuff we called "over the couch art" because it would match their sofa but has no other redeeming qualities), and ignored the art that really took talent to make, was mind boggling. And the sad thing is, even these types of crap paintings made by no-name artists who spend 2 hours swirling paint around on a canvas can command much higher prices than someone who spends 40 hours on a realistic masterpiece, simply because the general public thinks it is good art because it is similar to all the super-high-end art that commands millions of dollars because of this scheme. And therefore, more and more artists decide to go the crappy "abstract" route, and we lose artists with talent. It disgusted me. Ok, rant over :)
Yeah, the neighborhood sorta near the beginning of the video that has one house burned completely to ash and all the other houses are perfectly fine, nothing else around it burned, not even scorch marks on the house very close next door, is really bizarre. Like it was targeted.
I was in a recycling plant in GA earlier this year and saw a sign right outside the women's restroom that said "Any man found in the women's restroom will be fired on the spot" in English and Spanish. Warmed my heart.
Wife here. I'm extremely lucky in that my husband is on the exact same page as me. I influenced his awakening, mainly by reading stuff from this site (I discovered it after the election), but I didn't have to try hard at all, because he is able to make the same connections as me, see the missing pieces in official narratives, and analyze things. We are both research machines. We never run out of things to talk about in our house, and some of our discussions go on for hours, throwing out theories, analyzing different viewpoints, etc. Neither of us were political when we met, so I'd say for the most part, we've made this journey together.
Guitar picks are made from all different types of plastics, including older plastics like celluloid and bakelite which may have a greater toxicity profile than modern plastics. Bakelite is particularly bad, being made from phenol and formaldehyde. So, he may be right, depending on what his picks were actually made from. You aren't likely to have any problems from PET or HDPE nowadays though...plastics have come a long way.
Yeah, my sister didn't want a big wedding, but she didn't get a choice in the matter (and no say in anything pertaining to how the wedding was to go). Her parents-in-law wanted to show off, so they dropped at least 100k on the wedding reception, flying their family and friends in from all over the world. Thankfully my side of the family didn't have to pay for anything more than plane tickets and hotel for ourselves, and a bridesmaid's dress for me (gag), but the whole thing was ridiculous, and in my mind a complete waste of money. If my sister's husband's parents would have only given them that money as a down payment, it would have made their lives so much better, but nope, the wedding party was the most important thing.
Pyrolysis (burning plastic to produce fuel) can be done, but it generally is going to produce a low quality fuel that needs a lot more refinement to make it comparable to conventional fuel. It's also going to produce off-gases, heavy metals and dioxins, so yeah, I wouldn't do it in my own backyard. It also uses more energy than it could ever produce, which is why it hasn't really caught on as an economical or environmentally friendly way to recycle (not that mechanical recycling is either). So if you wanted to just get rid of excess plastic and you're only doing it on a very small scale, you could do it yourself and be fine, if you're in a very ventilated area, and the things you're putting it in are in a very ventilated area, but I wouldn't expect a very long life from the engines you're putting it into. Also, you have to consider the source of plastic...you do not want to be burning PVC.
I wouldn't worry too much...lots of companies, even big ones, have lofty ideas for turning plastics into fuels, or innovative ways to recycle that are going to be "the next big thing." They put out all sorts of press releases and get lots of funding, but then abandon the project at the pilot phase because it never can be economical. I work in the plastics industry and see it every day. As one brilliant scientist I knew (who was unfortunately killed by the vax) said, "put money on the table and all sorts of riff-raff will show up." This new push to be "green" and find ways of using discarded plastic is causing tons of big companies and new startups to try things, but almost none of them ever come to fruition in any meaningful quantity.
My wedding cost $75 for the marriage license. Courthouse wedding, no honeymoon. It was more important for me and my husband to have money to buy a house than it was for one day of festivities.
Ah, got it...somehow missed it. Sorry!
