New Yorker Yan Xiong reveals what it’s like to be spied on by Chinese police in US. Interesting, though I’d have to think about it more. Basically the Chinese are running election-affecting intel ops in US borders. Note, domestic intel/surveillance didn’t want me doing this, even when I was a surveillance-blind American normie who supported one part of the uniparty/Cabal machine, and had no idea how things really worked. If I gave a fuck about my body I’d have bailed when the vibrations started. I would think if the Chinese knew how things worked, they would know this was not going to work, and the Cabal intel/surveillance would not let a trained foreign intel op operate in the US. Maybe the Chinese just threw this operation at the wall to see what would stick. Or might regular Chinese intel be like the parts of CIA which think their agency is pursuing NatSec objectives, and do not really understand how things work at the higher level? Probably have to file this one away as another data point until more data comes in.

Pelosi reportedly refuses to hand over security footage, as neighbors question details of incident. Lots of data points at the link which show neighbors saying her home was protected as you would expect the third in line to the Presidency to be protected. Even electronic countermeasures so strong they were scrambling neighbor’s computers. Plus you can bet at least one, and probably every immediate neighbor’s house will be a Cabal observation post, with tech pointed at Pelosi’s house, and monitoring the approaches to it. They actually appear to post a group of 20 somethings behind my house, in a direction I might try to scramble to escape into some woods. When it is cold, they build a bonfire back there each night, and hang around talking. You can’t leave a home unprotected, even if nobody is there, because somebody can break in and stick 20 lbs of C4 in the wall on a timer, and seal up the drywall and paint it so nobody knows it is there, until the protectee comes back and the bomb goes off killing them. The idea the house is entirely unwatched, Paul Pelosi was all alone, this guy broke in unnoticed, and Paul had to call Police like some plebe is ludicrous. This will be a great example of how you cannot believe anything which comes out of the media or FBI. Only the uncontrolled initial reports, and whatever doesn’t fit into the sterile narrative are likely to point to the truth. When you get your information from liars, you have to look for whatever might contradict the likely liars’ story, if you want the truth.

Not right indeed. From a comment I read elsewhere:

“If you read Powell’s SECOND book (Cleaving) … she was a deeply troubled woman, into BDSM — cheating on her husband many times (he cheated too… the most amazing part here is that they stayed married!) — possibly some eating disorders — and she sold her human eggs to get cash, due to constant financial issues and I mean here “she did it so often, it impacted her health” and doctors had to force her to stop after like 4-5 donations. The easy money of egg selling was just too alluring to her.
The second book also shows a woman who was already in her 30s and eating a diet very high in meat, fat, butter, dairy — and I mean like, 24/7. To the degree it was actually sickening to read about, and I’m no vegan.”

Why would she have to sell her eggs for cash? I thought she was a successful chef/author?

She was no more of a chef than Julia Child. Who wasn’t a chef.

You know, what a lot of people don’t realize is that Le Cordon Bleu, the famous french culinary school that Julia Child attended, did not start out as a vocational school. It was initially for urban housewives and to a large extent for foreigners. Indeed, it started out as a MAGAZINE for housewives and then began teaching classes for well to do Paris housewives. They also had a fair number of foreign students.

At the time, the school for professional chefs was Escoffier. He’s the real legend in French cooking and cook training.

Post WW2, Le Cordon Bleu was making a transition into starting to train professional chefs, concentrating primarily on vocational training for French military veterans.

But here’s the thing: the French system for growing chefs was always primarily about apprenticeship. You learn by starting as a dishwasher/busboy and then start doing prepwork, and learn one skill at a time on the job in a real restaurant. That’s how the greatest chefs have largely been produced. Marco Pierre White, Gordon Ramsay, Thomas Keller, etc., all learned that way. Most of the great French chefs, as well. In fact, it’s interesting how many top chefs DID not go to culinary school.

But here’s the thing: to apprentice in France you had to at least learn the language. And that’s where Cordon Bleu came in and became famous for taking foreigners; they’d do what they could to accommodate foreign students. The point I’m making is this: Cordon Bleu was famous for being this mecca for foreign chefs, but it was precisely the location drawing in those who weren’t sufficiently motivated or capable of apprenticing in a French restaurant.

Again, who’s likely to be a better cook and learn more in a few years in Paris? A foreigner who has already paid his dues sufficiently to begin working (and getting paid) in a great french restaurant or one who is shelling out $ to attend Cordon Bleu? Again, Thomas Keller, America’s most highly regarded chef, and Gordon Ramsay, arguably one of the best in London, never went to Cordon Bleu. They apprenticed in Paris.

(It’s worth noting that Paul Bocuse, the most famous French Chef of the last half of the 19th century, sent his own son to America to study at the Culinary Institute of America.)

Secondly, to be a Chef basically means much more than being a cook. It means being able to manage the restaurant and to train each member of the staff in what they need to do.

Julia Child was not a chef. She was a housewife who spent a year taking classes and then became a TV personality. I would argue that she wasn’t even primarily an educator, she was an ENTERTAINER. She was a great entertainer, but in my view she had no great expertise in French cooking. When you watch her old shows she was an absolute disaster of spills, splatters, and general messiness in the kitchen. There was nothing professional or refined about her at all. She was simply familiar with the foundations.

Julie Powell made her name by blogging about cooking each of Julia Child’s recipes in “Mastering the Art of French Cooking” in a year, as if that was a major challenge. It should be noted that Child’s book was mostly rather basic recipes, indeed perfectly selected for the American housewife. It’s most certainly not a book of refined technique or haute cuisine. It’s largely late 1800s Parisan housewife cooking.

Julie Powell wasn’t a chef. She’s a food hobbyist and blogger.

The movie Julie and Julia is cute and has a lot of cute moments in it. But the whole thing seems to be about appealing to the fragile egos of American urban women who want to feel like they are doing something important (they aren’t), that Julia Child was a major figure in fine cuisine (she wasn’t), and that being able to follow her recipes makes them out of be sophisticated (they aren’t.)

One odd thing I noticed this morning is that the gas prices in my area haven’t moved in over a week and all the stations have the same price.

This includes the stations that jew the fuck out of ya (quick to rise/slow to fall).

They’re all the same and haven’t moved in quite a while. Never seen that before.

I wonder if they’ll stay that way until after the elections and then rip higher and go back to varying prices all over.

The irreparable harm the vaxx caused is now becoming apparent to even the most ardent pedo-leftist. Their peers are suffering and dying.

When you get your information from liars, you have to look for whatever might contradict the likely liars’ story, if you want the truth.”

That sure has been one of America’s great learning lessons in recent years. Some here may have been tuned into this truth earlier, or more than most. However, the fact is that for the great majority of Americans it was President Trump, in only a few short years, who taught them who was lying – Fake News, Dems, RINOs, FBI, UN, EU, NATO – and hammered on the truth relentlessly.

The answer is to make things miserable as possible for everyone who questions the narrative and only allow economic benefits to flow to those who mouth the narrative. Whether it be in your traditional workplaces, government agencies, or the media: speaking up and questioning the narrative will be regarded as a hate crime, “extremism”, or possibly insanity. We can see that this is the direction they are moving in.

They’ll do what they can to impoverish and disenfranchise all those who complain. Pretty soon, many will be too busy trying to simply survive to raise too many questions. The more influential ones will be targeted for social isolation.

Programs like this only go either on stand-alone computers unconnected to any other computers – no internet connectivity, or on computers linked only to the SIPRNET. The SIPRNET is a secure internet used by the U.S. It is completely separate from the normal internet. My guess is the Ukrainians put these programs on computers linked to the regular internet. As soon as they did, every intelligence agency in the world with a decent hacking capability got immediate access to everything the Ukrainians have. A year ago I’d have smacked my head and muttered, “Fucking amateurs,” but I don’t think the U.S. military is much better these days.

I bet this whole debacle is how the Russians know exactly who pulled off the Sebastopol drone attack. They were reading the Ukrainian messages.

Finally, you got to wonder why the hack was publicized now. My guess it is intended to cause the Ukrainians to stop using the software, thereby creating a period of confusion among Ukrainian commanders which the Russians can exploit to launch attacks.

Partially true. SIPRNet isn’t separated from NIPRNet. It’s not even air-gapped. Most SIPR traffic is tunneled through NIPR. They call it secure, but you’ve indicated your confidence in the US Military’s abilities. It wouldn’t surprise me if SIPR isn’t as secure as they claim.

Julie Powell was responsible for really pushing the mythology about Julia Child. There’s this myth that’s widely believed, propagated by the book and the movie “Julie and Julia” that insists Julia Child introduced French cuisine to Americans and that before Child came along there were no french cook books available in English for Americans.

It’s all complete bullshit. “French Cooking for Americans” by Louis Diat years earlier. Diat was the chef at the Ritz-Carlton in NYC, wrote in Gourmet magazine, and back 30 years before Julia enrolled in Le Cordon Bleu, the president of Campbell’s soup stayed at the Ritz for several months just to learn more about soup making from Diat.

By the way, Child enrolled at Le Cordon Bleu in 1950 and “graduated” in 1951. Earning at best just a simple certificate.

The entire mythology surrounding her is bullshit.

> Mazda is gathering all sorts of data about you from the computer in your car and the GPS attached to it.
—-
So does almost every other car manufacturer. They know everywhere the car goes, where it fills up or recharges, where it’s parked at night, and where it’s serviced. They know if you’ve been speeding, or if you took it to a “high speed driving event”, so they can tell you your warranty is void.

Many new cars come with multiple cameras, including “cockpit” cameras that watch you while you drive. GM and Tesla can shut your car off remotely; I assume most of the others can as well.

I’m a tech geek and an “early adopter.” That’s one reason I drive a 1980 car. It has a carburetor, a dirt-simple electronic ignition, a radio I don’t use, and plain, switch-controlled lights. I’m not certain the ignition module would survive an EMP pulse, but I have an old point-type distributor and the correct wrench to change it in a box in the trunk, should it come to that. We know from the Army’s many bomb tests that the rest of the electrics will be unaffected even close enough to a boom to burn off the paint.

How do you (1) find a car that is 40+ years old with low-ish miles, (2) keep the rust off, and (3) keep the car running as a reliable daily driver (“oh, I’ll just do that quick fix tonight” can easily turn into several hours/days of not having a car)? I would really like to have an 80s/90s car, but I haven’t solved these three questions.

Reply to  HM1488

1) You don’t. You find a car that is 40+ years old that hasn’t been abused and work with that. Pickups are the direction to look, usually.
2) Keeping the rust off is primarily climate. There’s hardly any rust damage south of say, Kansas. A car from Texas, Arizona, California or Florida is likely to be completely clear of rust in the undercarriage, and body rust is easy enough to remove and paint over. After that, it’s about keeping the car clean and regular waxing. If you are in a place with ice and road salt, rust is inevitable.
3) When you get the car, it will take a while to get it up to snuff. Oil, oil filter, ALL the filters (fuel, cabin, air, etc). Replace all the belts. Replace the suspension joints. Completely replace the brake calipers, rotors and pads. New tires. Maybe you need an engine rebuild or a crate engine. Price it into the car. Replace the fuel pump and water pump. Brand new headliner. (Don’t try to fix it, it never works.) Deep clean the car, full detail (watch some detailer videos on youtube.)
At that his point, you have a car that is almost new. It will be a new car sitting on an old frame (which if not rusted doesn’t wear) with an old body over it.
After that, accept that you will be spending on upkeep in lieu of a car payment. Set aside a day for the preventative stuff. Keep up with the oil changes and filter changes, and the car will be as reliable as when it was made (which will vary depending on who made it and what factory it came out of.) Little stuff will continue wearing out (door handles, trim pieces, etc) which you can replace as you go on your maintenance day, but it won’t be stuff that makes the car undrivable.
(FWIW, I don’t live it. I have a 2013 model, and will likely never buy a newer car. I’m currently in this regime with mine, but if I have to replace it, I’m going with an even older pickup, somewhere between 1987 and 1995.)

toyotas built between 1976-1989ish are essentially indestructable. my old pappy, who was insane but still nobody’s fool, had a theory that toyota intentionally degraded the build/quality of their product after 1990 (but not of course Lexii) because their dealers were screaming: essentially indestructable cars don’t need service, and they especially don’t need ridiculously expensive dealer service

a tad small, though – especially when you step into an 86 toyo munchkin pickup after a decade of driving modern full-size F150s

Those are exactly what I was thinking of, for all those reasons. I’ve been in them before, so I don’t think the size shock would be much. Second tier would be a no-frills Silverado or a GMC.

Remember when you could get reliable cheap Japanese cars? Supposedly, during the Clinton administration, he traveled to Japan with US auto executives. They threatened the Japanese auto industry, and suddenly the Japanese quit selling reliable, cheap subcompacts. They focused on mid-sized and luxury.

Thanks for taking the time to type out these details, Phelps; really helpful. This is a good answer to my #3 question: “Set aside a day for the preventative stuff. Keep up with the oil changes and filter changes.”

Now that comment replies are working again (thanks, AC!), I also wanted to reply to Phelps from [1].

>> Phelps: HM1488 = Heavy Metal 1488? Just trying to see if I knew you from the long long ago times.

No, “HM” is my real-life initials. Somewhat discrete, but also I am not ashamed to have a version of my real name attached to my comments.

I always enjoy reading your comments on legal issues, Phelps. Thanks for contributing to our (very special!) K community.

> GOP suddenly surges in far-left Politico poll.

A lot of this sort of thing is fakery; they tweak the Narrative to favor the Republicans with the expectation that the lazy Democrats will exclaim “O noes!” and run to the polls to vote Democrat.

So they will be pulling voting fraud again just like in Brazil. What will be done about it?

“Or might regular Chinese intel be like the parts of CIA which think their agency is pursuing NatSec objectives, and do not really understand how things work at the higher level?”

That or they are knowingly working with cabal.
Probably some of both.
I have yet to see any real anti-cabal activity from the CCP other than possible power struggles for internal control of China.

SARs invading microglia. Microglia make sure neurons survive. Inflamed glia do things like in the book “Brain on Fire”- the girl looked possessed by demons.

Gross. They should be ashamed of themselves.

As repentance they should provide pics of their honeymoon night.

I must quibble with AC.
Take a look at this Nordic Resistance Flash demonstration in Oslo.
This is excellent! In our country, there are now several groups besides Patriot Front. There will be more. Did you see about the so-called Lazer Nazi the other day at the big ball stadium in Florida?
If such a movements will be opposed by cabal operators, that’s life, BECAUSE what better way for people to learn about cabal surveillance to begin with.
Consider that if you hope to tell all the people about cabal first, before beginning activities, how likely is that to even happen? It doesn’t seem likely.
People must organize and plan and ACT with their family, friends, and neighbors. Let whatever happens happens. When it happens, THEN people will have a real reason to bone up on the surveillance cartel. And it won’t take them very long to find out all about it. Here’s to that.

Opium poppy cultivation in Afghanistan increased by 32% over the previous year, and the 233,000 hectares of Afghan land used to cultivate opium poppy in 2022 was the “third largest area under opium cultivation since monitoring began,” The U.N. Office on Drugs and Crime reported Nov. 1….

They are not shutting down Street View itself.
They are shutting down an app that allows random people to upload areas Google hasn’t covered.
