9/11 Nuttiness

J.kb over at GunFree zone had a post lamenting the 9/11 commentary on social media. Or rather the polarization of the groups involved. J.KB at GunFreeZone He missed a third camp. Those would be the population of people that fully believe that 9/11 was an inside job. Conspiracy nuts. The seedpods from that particular garden … Continue reading 9/11 Nuttiness →

That’s a Lot of Dots.

Zero Hedge had this: A List Of 33 Things We Know About The Coming Food Shortages. 1 The hard red winter wheat crop in the United States this year “was the smallest since 1963”. But in 1963, there were only 182 million people living in this nation. Today, our population has grown to 329 million. … Continue reading That’s a Lot of Dots. →

Generator Go BRRRRRR…

Saw this on Zero Hedge... Back in the day, I worked as a Network Engineer at a Medical Lab. They had not one, but two generators big as a locomotive. Bigger than the one here. And, two exhaust stacks - 12" pipe, up the side of the building and above the roof. In the summer, … Continue reading Generator Go BRRRRRR… →

Wow! I stand Corrected

I wrote about Oberlin here. I was wrong. I figured the college would run the clock. But they didn't. They paid up. Wow!...On some level, the system works. Good for Lorna Gibson. As the article says though, what they didn't do is apologize. They see themselves as the victim here. I still stand by my … Continue reading Wow! I stand Corrected →

Open Letter to Gibsons

Gibsons is a bakery, actually more of a general store, in Oberlin, Ohio that's been in business for something like 137 years. It's a tiny town, and they are the only sort of store within walking distance where you can buy needful things, other than a Ben Franklin next door to it. They have about … Continue reading Open Letter to Gibsons →

All Fun & Games…

Apparently, Biden was crammed full of Adderall and gave a speech last night for the benefit of the 342 people watching CNN and MSNBC. I didn't watch it because I can't stand the man or to hear him talk. I was the same way with Obama. I'd fixate on that head rotating back and forth … Continue reading All Fun & Games… →

It’s all BS, Part 2

I listen to talk radio every morning as I feed myself and the dogs. Usually, it's Mark Davis on 660AM. I like the banter between him and Mike Gallagher every morning. This morning they had a converstation about how republicans are in trouble over the Dobbs decision. Supposedly Gallagher had 'conservative women' callers from Texas … Continue reading It’s all BS, Part 2 →

It’s all BS, Part 1

Miguel at GunFreeZone had a great piece up about heating oil. There's a smell to an old city when it gets cold. You have the snap of the air and a faint industrial smell which seems to make the city colder. It's not industry, since where I grew up, Washington DC area, had no heavy … Continue reading It’s all BS, Part 1 →

Herd People

Vox Day had a great post Tuesday. First time I saw the term "Herd People". What a great term. It doesn’t matter how smart you are if you are psychologically unable to analyze anything outside of what previously recognized authorities have told you to believe: Vox Day I run into these types all the time. I used … Continue reading Herd People →

Woketarded

We spent some time with friends this weekend. After dinner we were chatting and catching up. Turns out their daughter, who's in college, calls her dad and chastises him about his white privelege. This couple is younger than us, lives in a modest house in the neighborhood that they, no doubt, bought long before the … Continue reading Woketarded →
