Here are some news stories that might be of interest. Most articles will be more or less summarized in the headline. You can skim the headlines and summaries, and click the links if they are of interest. Keep in mind, many of these reports are products of an unreliable news media, so although they will be what people are hearing and talking about, there is no guarantee any one of them is necessarily correct, and we have had cases of outright lies make it onto these pages.

Remember when the Supreme Court was about to take a case on silencers, and suddenly we had the only mass shooting where a shooter made use of a legally papered silencer? Newsweek points out that just as the Supreme Court is about too rule on if New Yorkers have the ability to carry guns, in a case where one Justice worried during arguments about the consequences of New Yorkers having guns on the subway, suddenly we have a mass shooting with a handgun on the New York subway – the only one in history, I believe. Coincidences, coincidences.
A great article at CTH which looks at twitter operates from a tech standpoint, and shows there is no way Twitter can be a regular business, because its infrastructure becomes more and more costly with each user. This is because the cost is in the computer processing needed to run the spiderweb of connections between users, and that spider web gets exponentially more complicated as more users are added and need to be connected to everyone else. As in the second user only needs to be connected to the first, but the millionth needs to be connected to all 999,999 other users, who also need to be connected to him. This means Twitter, and all social media, will produce less and less profit as they grow, and computing power needs to increase to support it all, unlike all other businesses, which can benefit from economies of scale. The article concludes that from a tech perspective, all social media is like this, and thus all social media cannot be businesses, but rather must be intelligence operations being secretly run on government servers and with unlimited government money, which were designed solely to get in between citizens and control their communications and interactions. It concludes this is what Musk is threatening to reveal, and the intelligence community will never allow this to come out. I while back I posted something where a researcher was asking why a facebook data farm in some place like Alabama, was being built on land which was owned by the US government in local tax records. Which probably means these will be more “Tech Giants” whose entire origin stories were utterly false.
When Twitter went public back in 2013, it was an unprofitable company. More than two years later, that hasn’t changed. In fact, the company revealed in its annual 10-K filed Feb. 29 that it has lost more than $2 billion in total since launching a decade ago.
Twitter had already accrued more than $400 million in losses before going public, but that figure exploded upward after its IPO, largely due to stock-based compensation awarded to employees. The company lost $520 million in 2015 alone. [Time]
Twitter was allowed to operate at such a massive loss because it has aprofound influence on shaping narratives that in turn influence the population.
If they waste this much money on a single lefty-bot-network circle-jerk of pithy snark to hypnotize the masses of NPCs, and even more on the rest of their media, what do you think they might spend on surveillance, which is infinitely more powerful, especially when it can get ahold of blackmail? And which has just as much a history in tyrannical dictatorships? Nothing worked like you were told. And everything was much worse than you would ever have believed. You are going to find the STASI had nothing on modern intelligence operations targeting our populations.

Smoking guns found? Joe Biden referred business and mingled finances with son Hunter, messages show. We already knew this, but the article is out there. This will all have an effect if and when the hidden hands decide to have it have an effect.
From here, talking about the Hunter Biden computer repair guy:
When the FBI exited his shop, Mac Isaac said he cracked a joke and the FBI Agent turned and said:
“Nothing ever happens to people who don’t talk about these kind of things.” I saw that as a thinly veiled threat so I made zero effort to talk to the FBI after that point.
Somebody should get a copy of the Hunter hard drive, with the child porn, and send a copy to FBI, telling them they intend to post it online for the public to see on Day X. Then tell the FBI that if there is any child porn on the drive that should not be posted, please let us know, but if they don’t respond, then it will be assumed the drive is fine, and it will be posted in its entirety for everyone to view. Either you will get a letter from FBI confirming there is child porn on it and they are doing nothing about it, or the drive will go live and everyone can see for themselves. Then post it on a Russian server.
This tweet is puzzling, in that Jack Maxey has said he approached Wikileaks, and they ignored the Biden hard drive, and he said in conclusion that, “WikiLeaks doesn’t really exist,” implying it was an intelligence construct designed as a honeypot to lure in whistleblowers into revealing their positions so they could be silenced. KimDotCom has been fucked enough you would think he is not an actor in the play, yet this next series of tweets sounds like bullshit, especially wikileaks having media partners (True, but only because they are all Cabal). And yet Maxey has seemed full of shit at times too. So make of all this what you will:
This does not look good for Sussman, or the FBI, or the other Russia-hoaxers:
An article on Tina Peters, by leftist FiveThirtyEight, which of course acts like there was no election fraud. The only interesting parts to file away – mostly what Ms Peters is enduring to preserve election integrity, the depth of the conspiracy, and a little hope :
Peters is back in Mesa County. She has to be. She can’t leave the state after being recently indicted by a grand jury on 10 counts, including seven felony charges…, for which she faces up to 28 years in jail and $2.7 million in fines, with the potential for more charges coming.
… recall effort — backed by several former employees of the clerk’s office, which had seen three-quarters of its staff resign under Peters — failed to get enough signatures to prompt a vote, but the Colorado secretary of state did order an election observer to report on the clerk’s office…
For now, she’s awaiting trial for the charges laid against her and may face more charges out of the federal investigation. She’s currently facing another court challenge from the secretary of state to remove her from overseeing another election — this time the 2022 midterms. She was given a contempt of court citation for allegedly recording a hearing in a case against her deputy clerk. And when police tracked her down in a local bagel shop to execute a search warrant for that iPad, she allegedly resisted, leading to her being placed in handcuffs and donkey-kicking a cop — so she also faces charges for obstruction of a peace officer. And then there are the multiple ethics complaints filed against her for raising money to cover legal fees and accepting gifts in the form of travel and housing from Lindell.
Peters is still running for secretary of state. And last weekend, she attended the state Republican Assembly, receiving 61 percent of the votes.
[Election fraud rigging] proponents are currently running for secretary of state, governor and Congress. They’re running for school boards, election boards and county clerks. Meanwhile, veteran election officials have been resigning in droves thanks to the death threats and intimidation lobbed at them by those who believe they were complicit in a stolen election. Peters’s story is unique, but it might not be for long.

“FDA grants emergency use authorization for first COVID-19 breath test.” Bear in mind, little you see today is real, so when one of these boxes blares an alarm, and they announce you need to immediately accompany them to the quarantine camp, it may not be because you have the coof. Honestly, I am not an expert in the tech, so maybe this is beyond me, but when I use a modicum of knowledge about the biochemistry involved, to try to picture this thing detecting the difference between inflammatory molecules produced by your body when infected by COVID-19, and what results from the normal coronavirus colds which have been around for eons and are entirely harmless, and what is produced rhinoviruses, or by any other inflammatory virus, and doing it off the scant molecules which would be present in a single breath, I feel like I am watching Elizabeth Holmes rattle off all the different tests her product is going to do on a single drop of blood, in seconds. My guess is, when they say it is 99.3% accurate at detecting a negative sample, those were healthy volunteers, and not people infected with Rhinovirus, harmless coronaviruses, other cold viruses, or bad allergies, or asthma, or any other harmless inflammation of the airway.

British captive who fought in Mariupol describes ‘reality’:
The situation in the Ukrainian port city of Mariupol is “catastrophic,” and the Ukrainian forces are largely to blame for it, a UK citizen identified as Aiden Aslin, who reportedly fought in the city, said in a video obtained by RT.
The British man apparently surrendered to Russian forces along with Ukrainian marines earlier this week.
… What he saw in the city during the weeks of heavy fighting also influenced his views on the Ukrainian military. “It was like seeing reality for the first time,” Aslin said, adding that he witnessed a “lack of care for civilians” on the part of the Ukrainian military…
“They are criminals,” he added, referring to the Ukrainian soldiers, when asked about the Ukrainian military allegedly killing civilians in the city.”

AC you might be interested in the first part of this video. Guy had a military father, NSA mother, became a Los Angeles policeman. Found out about the CIA smuggling drug into Los Angeles. Promptly got a CIA wife who ruined him. Then he made some newsletter that covered all this stuff they wanted covered up. Anyways the gist of the video is we are running out of oil and are going to die. Now, he’s not completely wrong, if we do nothing. I have said and shown there are lots of alternatives but we are very slow on the uptake of them. We might run out of out before we switch or also we might slowly transfer over without catastrophic collapse. If the government keeps destroying food, water and energy supplies as they are, then collapse it will be.
The real kicker that made me recommend it is the first 5 minutes or so where he talks about all this stuff that is textbook on someone being watched and an attempt to guide him.

I babble on about how our Central bank is ripping us off and how the Japanese run their own. I got some of the data from this and some from articles and books. If your into understanding the deeper parts of how economies work it’s a good watch.
Yeah, he was one of the early ones.
You know, the way he describes that though, some brilliant guy just happening to approach him and tell him about peak oil? That makes me think peak oil may be a psyop, and abiotic oil is actually correct, and we will never run out. Because so much of things, once you are in that world, become not just what you see, but the cause and effect behind it.
I was familiar with Rupert. I posted a video of him way back, where he had approached a Congressman about CIA drug smuggling, and never heard anything, and so he went to a public press conference of the congressman, made a scene, and once in front of the cameras, the congressman said he had wanted to talk with him, but had lost his name, or couldn’t find him, or something. Then nothing came of it.
He first became a pain in the ass over CIA drug smuggling, where they tried to recruit him into some operation in LA, or so they said. The story made me wonder if they had something else going on in his sector, like maybe a surveillance hub, or child-trafficking thing which he would never have gone along with, or even something more minor but more believable like illegally accessing databases, and the drug-smuggling approach was an attempt to distract him, maybe corrupt him if he took the bait. Or give him a (at the time) ridiculous story that would serve to discredit him, whereas a real story about them spying on people illegally using Police databases might have been believable. Obviously something must have made him a concern because he had the CIA fiancé to find out what he was saying privately to the most trusted person in his life, which nobody would believe, but which apparently is quite common. I think I could probably have had a couple inserted in my life at various times, like ticking timebombs, who might even have had kids with me, as weird as it sounds. They always seemed a puzzle, just a little too eager, or easy, when everyone else had zero chances anywhere.
So Rupert set up a whole operation dedicated to exposing the abuses of the intelligence community, and suddenly this guy approached him about peak oil, couching it as the big secret they were keeping from the masses, giving him all this hot intel, and his whole newsletter turned into a doom-report, with all peak-oil, and economic collapse, all the time. His subscribership exploded suddenly, and he began making videos, and so on, getting diverted from the real abuses of the government. Once he was diverted long enough that the anti-CIA, anti-government-scandal folks drifted away, and I suspect his whole readership was CIA, the bottom dropped out, and he was broke and his operation collapsed, and he ended up committing suicide, supposedly.
I would imagine they would love to do that here with something. It is not as good an analogy as peak oil, which has some science to support it, but imagine I suddenly became a UFO-Alien site-guy, always talking about the reptilians who morph from humans into lizards, and suck the blood of babies, and the coming day of harvest when we will all be culled for our pineal glads, and I had all this stuff from some government-insider, showing the government was preparing, and we all needed bunkers. This readership would drift away to somewhere better, but if I was selling subscriberships, and they skyrocketed, and their people kept the comments and the traffic exploding, I might not notice, and even see it as affirmation, thinking I had found my niche. After a few years, with only their people filling the ranks of my followers, they can pull the plug and drain the site, and I am done as a threat.
It is very tough when you have a group with devious people, and unlimited resources and manpower, to maintain your own center, and chart your own course, and not get diverted. The main advantage I have is I spent so long, from when I was really little in school and surrounded by their kid-spies, sensing I was always going to be on the outside and fighting, and that I knew more than all those other masses around me, that now today, it is kind of like they made me for this. I will bet Rupert had fewer child-spies in his sphere, and fit in better with normal kids, and maybe wasn’t as on the outside, so he tended to trust other people more, and didn’t get used to seeing weirdness everywhere he looked and questioning what was behind it.
Fwiw, Biotic oil has always seemed laughably preposterous to me. I actually can’t even make myself pretend to believe it. Doesn’t make me right, but it just seems so silly.
And yet has been patently obvious to me since the naughties before a website called “deepstate” got disappeared.

How can Russia rely on Gas/Oil for its economy?

Just to focus on peak oil theory, I can see a situation where everything we have been taught about geology, biology, and physics was wrong, and there is abiotic oil, and carbon dioxide doesn’t exist, and maybe DNA doesn’t actually exist and the dinosaurs were fabricated. But of course in that world it would be impossible to say what is even likely to be reality. Everything would be fabricated.
But actual peak oil theory is really nothing more than that eventually oil deposits will be left in the ground because they will be too expensive to extract. Its actually the opposite of “we will run out of oil”, the theory is that it will no longer be extracted long before the last of the geological deposits will run out. There will be an alternative source of energy, but it will be much more expensive to run and probably worse for the environment.
Which means that the industrial revolution, which was a one time only boost due to the exploitation of the more accessible fossil fuels, will run its course and everyone will be poorer. Life will continue much as now, but no progress, less material things, and fewer people since people will have to worry about their next meal again. Its not Mad Max, and the fact that that kept coming up on all the “peak oil” sites means they were targetted early for misdirection.
People like pointing to the Dark Ages, but they were dark because literacy declined and there is not much in the way of written records. Also, the western provinces of the Roman Empire were the backwards ones to begin with. Life for much people continued much as before, it might have been better due to lower taxes, but there does seem to have been a population decline.
You don’t have to throw out all of science to have abiotic oil.
Throw out the science? We know how hydro-carbons are made, and the reason that I say that is that can make them:
Audi Makes Synthetic Gasoline Using Zero Petroleum
https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a15355097/audi-makes-synthetic-gasoline-using-zero-petroleum/
The first time this was done was early 2000’s at a midwest US university, out of pig manure. DARPA is currently developing the technology to be installed aboard ship so that they can completely retire fueling ships because they can fuel themselves with air and seawater.
In the next fifty years this technology will be deployed anywhere that has coastline. They are going to be pumping out natural crude oil to burn simply to replace the carbon that the synthetic oil is taking out, less the atmospheric levels drop bellow the rate at which plants can photosynthesize.
Abiotic oil is the only theory that makes sense, because all the processes required to make the stuff are currently ongoing. The natural world is still happily churning out rotting carbon to combine with seawater under great heat and pressure under ground, volcanology can prove that the world is still VERY active, so we can assume that the processes involved never stopped.
I agree.
That’s why I said to Ed that you don’t need to throw out science as he indicated.
I’m sorry, I phrased that badly. I did not mean that to seem to be disagreement. My humor doesn’t translate as well via keystroke.
No problem. 🙂
That’s a good link. I haven’t seen it. I have seen other scientist where they made oi from CO2, electricity and water.
I’m not in any way against oil. I’m against being at the mercy of imported oil.
Electric cars are, right now, just the easiest way to get there.
From a friend in the oil industry:
To make sure my posiotion ios not misunderstood,
“…But actual peak oil theory is really nothing more than that eventually oil deposits will be left in the ground because they will be too expensive to extract…”
I do believe this. There is not an infinite amount of oil. I suspect that a bunch of it was in the planet from long ago, a bunch of it is made by bacteria deep in the ground and a good deal of it was also made by rotting vegetation like they say. It does not seem too far-fetched to me that even though I think there’s a lot of this stuff and it is being replenished, that it could get so expensive to get that it would crash the economy. The video I linked he talks about the vast quantities of oil we use. It’s a LOT. The volumes are huge and there doesn’t appear to be any “concentrated” large source that we have found anywhere near the amount in Saudi Arabia. Meaning, it cost most to find it.
If we build the reactors, we could have all the energy we wanted. We can actually make oil from the atmosphere with CO2 from the air and a little water with enough energy. We have enough nuclear waste, not fuel, waste, stored up in the US to run molten salt reactors for hundreds of years. Hundreds. Maybe even a thousand, without mining any more fissionable materials at all. We have enough so that if we wanted we wouldn’t have to burn a spec of coal.
Yes, this, with a caveat. The first caveat is that transportation works better with liquid fuels than electricity. Diesel is king of cargo. Petrol is just easier than batteries. Hydrogen as either a fuel or for fuel cells is easier than batteries. Natural gas is very useful as a way to boil water to turn a turbine.
But for electrical power generation nuclear is king. SO far nuclear means fission, which means a scaled-up 1950’s submarine engine to boil the water that turns the turbines. And on the whole it works. When doesn’t work – Chernobyl, Fukushima- yes, it’s a very big problem.
Thorium molten salt reactors look like the best bet here because they can be setup to eat the existing toxic waste while simultaneously producing useful industrial compounds as by-product. However what happens when we run out of nuclear waste? Basically, we just keep generating it and both types of reactors will happily coexist into the future.
Enter fusion – if they ever get it running it will still only coexist with the other nuclear reactor types. And there will STILL be natural gas plants burns. Heck, probably still coal burning plants. Because the truth is that we are only a regime change away from a new government that doesn’t see any need to play along with the climate change hoax, and once that happens the whole world watches us and follows our example.
All the oil that was ever drilled since oil was discovered could fill Lake Mead.
There is no peak oil.
Empty oil wells have been observed refilling naturally over time. Must have been a hell of a lot of stegosaurus and other alleged dinosaurs to make that magic happen, yeah? It’s all a psyop.
Shortage is a myth made to keep you panicked and small-minded. God promised to provide for the birds, the livestock, and you who are far more important than any animal. Any public sentiment that threatens to kill you in a painful manner is bullshit, clean off.
Sure. And God provided for all his creation mostly from recycling of matter.
Earth’s resources aren’t infinite. This isn’t a post-scarcity world.
>This isn’t a post-scarcity world.
For you it won’t be. What is scarce?
You can grow all your own food by putting seeds in the dirt and leaving it alone for a month. You can build houses for your children with wood that grows from the dirt if you leave it alone for 20 years. Water flows infinitely underground and from the sky. You can travel large distances on a grass and water fueled living vehicle called a horse. Your neighbors, family and nature provide more than enough entertainment if you’re not an Adderall-riddled spastic.
I feel the same way. “Fossil Fuels” even as a kid just seemed like a silly joke. I can’t even pretend to believe it in my head.
It just seems more of the plan by Cabal to deny energy to everyone else.
My 6th grade “science” textbook in the mid 80’s claimed the Earth would be completely out of coal and oil and something else I don’t remember by the year 2000.
It was wrong on EVERY count.
There has not been one single, solitary “climate” prediction that EVER proved accurate. And the people who scream the loudest are the worst offenders, owning multiple ocean front mansions, yachts, and private jets. If they believed their own bullshit, I figure they should move into a studio apartment and hold their circle-jerk “climate” conferences over Zoom.

The old Superman animated series from the 1990s had that storyline. A crooked cop puts a bomb in Clark Kent’s car thinking he’s an over-nosey reporter. It goes off, and the car plunges into the sea, so Clark has to figure out if he should reveal his identity, move on to a new one, or create a believable way he survived.
STAS episode “The Late Mr. Kent”. Circa 1997.
From Infogalactic:
Clark Kent has evidence to clear a condemned man from sentence of death, but the situation complicates when Superman survives a murder attempt on Clark planned by dirty cop Detective Bowman. Superman doesn’t want to sacrifice his dual identity, but he doesn’t want an innocent man to be killed for a crime he didn’t commit. The investigative episode ends with a twist, plus a certain character’s shocking realization.
Thank you for the plot summary. you make it sound like an interesting moral dilemma in spite of the tired trope of the crooked cop. In the real world, the far likelier event is a crooked prosecutor who will throw a case one way (railroading) or the other (an “oops” technicality) for cash or prizes.

Totalitarians *hate* the anonymous internet. That’s why North Korea, Singabore, Russia, China, and Australia are serious about packet inspection of anything moving in or out of their countries.
Every now and then you’ll see a big PR push for some “security” initiative, that’s supposed to stop internet fraud, protect the children, etc. In the end, every one of this turns out to be some system where you have to have a valid ID to use certain services, which would eventually be necessary to get online at all. They want to treat the internet as a gigantic mainframe, where only validated users have access.
Marc Andreessen, who wrote the web browser that Netscape and Internet Explorer licensed, is backing some of those proposals. So is Bruce Schneier, once a respected security analyst, who hitched his cart to the Biden wagon immediately after the fraudlection. Homeland Security has been pushing “internet ID” proposals, none fo which has gone anywhere… yet.

I have no doubt. Military aircraft get flown regularly; at least every week, sometimes every day. New flight crews have to be trained up, trained flight crews need practice, and planes that don’t fly often enough get infested with gremlins and become hangar queens.
Well, except for American B1 bombers, which have mostly been hangar queens for most of their lifetime. The oh-so-expensive B1 was a piece of crap to start with, and the best thing we could do with them is turn them over to, oh, maybe the North Koreans, and let them bankrupt themselves trying to keep one of them flying more than a few hours at a time. Putting them in the hands of our enemies would do far more for American national security than supporting them ourselves.
A/C, this might interest you, good old Kurt Gödel’s death:”Later in his life, Gödel suffered periods of mental instability and illness. Following the assassination of his close friend Moritz Schlick, Gödel developed an obsessive fear of being poisoned, and would eat only food prepared by his wife Adele. Adele was hospitalized beginning in late 1977, and in her absence Gödel refused to eat; he weighed 29 kilograms (65 lb) when he died of “malnutrition and inanition caused by personality disturbance” in Princeton Hospital on January 14, 1978. He was buried in Princeton Cemetery. Adele died in 1981.” (Wikipedia)
Apparently, Gödel was a lifelong hypochondriac and as a mathematical genius probably suffered all kinds of extreme eccentricities, but I still thought it interesting. Incidentally, Moritz Schlick’s death and his assassin are also rather bizarre.
Fascinating. Lifelong hypochondriac. Like Socrates, or Aristotle, or whoever it was who I remember writing about how all of the major minds in Ancient Greece were puzzled over why they all had stomach problems and were prone to sickness.
I am increasingly thinking whatever this is has always been in the shadows trying to identify and covertly kneecap or divert the smart people it thought could one day be a threat.

My guess is that he’s a total idiot being used by former associates of his father. And if his Dad doesn’t publicly rebuke him for running his trap, then the father is either running his kid or has been pressured to back off and let this go unmentioned by MSM.
That is pretty stunning. Especially the writing.
When I go back though, I think they moved a lot of their smartest into my school for some reason, but there were only a couple who were impressive mentally. I don’t know if it comes from trying to fit in, so they try to look average, or if they feel they are on easy street, so they never apply themselves, or if they recruit in smart people but the kids return to averages, but my impression is the majority of their network is not scientifically/technically minded.
Maybe they recruit in people who they feel would never try to take over.
Still, it will be interesting to find out just how many of those midwits in the Parkland show were in the network and what their stories were.
Makes sense – once you have control you are not only worried about keeping it, and the people who are competent enough to get it for you are also the greatest threat to it. End stage empire, when the whole thing is run by yes-men that cannot find their backside with both hands.
As one with extensive experience in planning for and building scaled telecom networks for Internet services, I disagree with Sundance’s analysis at CTH. He is not the best, or even a mediocre, financial analyst (and he and his “moderators” allow little disagreement with his opinions on his site). His argument about TWTR is based on his experience building a single website (albeit a moderate sized one), not from knowledge of how scaled network operations work from a financial persective. Scaled network operators buy (or as in the case of Google make) network/computing components at the cheapest cost possible via bonafide negotiations with multiple vendors (h/w, s/w, facilities, services, etc.) The amount of data required to refresh 140 character messages is tiny. And the notion that the US Government, which can’t run a post office, can run scaled data service networks is farcical.
I do believe, however, that the US Govt is most likely compensating TWTR for following its directives; they’ve done that with all the media.
Could you please provide more information so us laymen could understand how economies of scale work in interconnected social media platforms?
I appreciate the insight. Probably right, though I would add there was an article where a researcher looked up the records for a Facebook server farm and found it was being built on US Government land. It is possible it is a US government operation operating under a cover.
I also would add, I think the Post Office may be getting run exactly as they want it, and it is bankrupt, and sucks at delivering packages because that is not its primary mission objective.
What I see with my own eyes in the US domestic surveillance front – the level of illegality and criminality, the immorality, the nature of it, the way the populace would absolutely exterminate whoever they had to exterminate, and take it several generations in each direction if necessary, to eradicate this thing – and yet it looks like they built it and have successfully hidden this massive leviathan for decades at least. That is no small feat. And it says to me we really can’t try to judge what is normal, or likely, or probably the way things work. My guess is we will find all of these social media companies were 100% not even close to the way we had thought they formed and were operating.
I agree regarding the massive govt surveillance. I do wonder how many people really care, given that they willingly use their iphones knowing they are tracked every minute. When i ask my 30 yr old kids why they do this, they shrug their shoulders, say everyone does it, and what can I do about it. Just a fact of life to their entire generation. And I can understand it – not having a smart phone is very inconvenient in many respects.
If all these companies financial statements are a complete lie, as would have to be the case for Sundance’s analysis to be true, then our entire capital markets are a lie. I’m not saying that’s impossible, but if it’s true, then no one should have a penny invested in any stock. I’m exiting the market anyway, before everyone else decides that’s the right idea, but if Twitter, Facebook, Google et al financial statements are completely fraudulent (i.e., don’t include cost of government provided infrastructure), then Twitter is the least of everyone’s problems.
It is one thing when all that data is getting warehoused somewhere and nobody will ever be able to look at it because there are not enough people in DC to look at all of it. It is quite another when all that stuff is being accessed by people they know down the street, and is being used behind their back to make sure they never have any success the machine had decided they should not have. There is a huge difference between impersonal tech warehousing, and getting cheated out of opportunities by specific people who demand you do what they say and commit to advancing their corrupt enterprise, and either way let you know you will never just be left alone.
Here is something to consider: the 300 companies that just up and pulled out of Russia, behaving almost like they are government departments and not firms where money is hard to come by.
“we really can’t try tfo judge what is normal, or likely, or probably the way things work”
Unfortunately, I find this to be more and more true every day.
You’re not really addressing CTH’s position. He is talking about a cost of $4500 a month for maintaining 10,000-15,000 commentators and the fact that comments have been outsourced to companies like Disqus. If he is right about Twitter costing $1 billion a month to run…well…do the math.
One thing I will say is, I question the commenter thing. I think you need to police each and every comment. If you do not, anybody can just take apart your site with all manner of techniques. Comments here are a major time drain just to police, even before I see all the interesting shit, 80% of which I set aside and never get the time to fully examine just because each day I have to cut off and do the day’s post. How is he making sure his comments don’t turn into a total shit show? You cannot do it with all tech. Why is nobody just flooding the site with crap to shut it down?
And who are all the people making comments in a group of 10-15,000 commenters, where almost all must just disappear into the void due to the flood of them, and nobody being able to know anyone else. It could be, I have never had that kind of problem. But It sounds strange.
Maybe assistant moderators could help too.

Turk Hi-Power 1,000 round review. The reviewer mentions this is the year of the Hi-Power resurgence, and I can tell you why – the 1911 and the AR15. Let me explain.
There are now DOZENS of companies making some kind of 1911 and even more making M4orgeries. Well, everyone that wants a 1911 probably has three or four by now. Same with anything in the Glock ecosystem. Big aftermarket, built in customer base.
Enter the Hi-Power in an era that is prone to nostalgia. It’s a well proven design in the public domain with a dialed-in aftermarket. So, SA and Girsan have both offered different versions of the pistol that are genuinely different. SA went high and set their gun up as a range darling and ready for competition out of the box – hence the lovely trigger, steel frame for weight, sights, and tight shot groups. Girsan OTOH went value with an aluminum frame, cheap sights, and overall bang for the buck approach.
And we technically have a third Hi-Power from FN. FN completely redesigned the pistol so that none of the aftermarket parts will fit even the sights or the magazine, made it very expensive, and exchanged the classic 19th century aesthetics favored by Browning to instead make the new pistol look like a retarded potato, because they like failure.

Additional small arms are of no marginal military value. There are plenty already. There’s plenty of other things that are, but I will not fedpost. (I will not fedpost I will not fedpost…)
You the true third Hi Power on the horizon: Ivanthetroll’s 3D printed frames. That going to make Hi Power more popular as the you can use large aftermarket parts to make your own custom Hi Power at the weight of a glock 17.
Yeah, if Ivan can ever manage to release the files. Been waiting for a year and a half now. 🙂
EDIT: Sorry, Lowell again.
I’m honestly not sure whether to impressed at the engineering and creativity, or cry because it went into NERF guns. I mean it’s diy cnc manufacturing, so it has to be a net-gain, right? But it’s plastic toy for what should be grown-ass men. I suppose that this is what passes for masculinity in major cities now.

Scroll down about half way on this page there is a movie called The Finders you might like https://home.solari.com/political-control-pedophilia-with-jon-rappoport/
Watched 20 mins of the movie so far it’s gripping.
AC- I wasn’t the person who asked for it, but i have the same reading style (posts in the am, comments in the pm) and I love the top-of-the-page comments link.
Nice. I need the feedback, so always let me know if there is something you guys want.
Me, too.
It concludes this is what Musk is threatening to reveal, and the intelligence community will never allow this to come out.
I disagree with this final assessment. Elon is clearly part of the cabal. I think they must be losing way too many users and need Elon to make “Twitter cool again”. Everything else is just theatrics for the normies.
This doesn’t look good:

So people are fleeing coastal blue cities like Seattle, but home prices in that region are still skyrocketing. Why? Mine is up nearly 15% just since January, more than doubled in three years. We are WAAAAYYYY into bubble territory, unless the Big Guys know that hyper-inflation and bailouts and nearly-free money with long-term low-fixed-rate loans make buying real estate a can’t-lose deal.
