Post-Independence day post, ummm,, postpost

Too many posts,,,, LOL

Last night was enlightening. Sunset rolled around and I heard few boomers going off, and no, there was not a restriction placed on fireworks for drought reasons. We’ve had more than enough rain to keep things tamped down, even if we hadn’t had it in 48 hours.

Even the local city show was short and sweet. About 15 minutes.

And it wasn’t a lack of fireworks. It seemed to me that we had more than the usual number of fireworks tents around the area. (and today, the number of cars at them was stellar,,, grabbing up that clearance stuff while its hot and available.)(Note, they are allowed to clear out inventory this day only,,, if they haven’t sold it, they sit on it for another year.)

Here’s what I am thinking.

People are still paying $4/carton of eggs, OR MORE, and that really dings the wallet; thats just one marker. We ARE seeing more drop offs as the summer progresses, so people are judging its cheaper to lose the pet than to feed them. (I’ve been all over this and how much I hate that aspect of this area, but I can use it as an economic gauge as well.) Gas, while it hasn’t gone up (much) hasn’t fallen to pre-Biden days either. Still well over $2.50/gal.

People are feeling the pinch, and fireworks, while fun, are literally blowing money into smoke and noise. Better things that same money can be spent on. Even with the EBT bennies, people are watching those nickles a lot more. (and I fully blame the EBT/Welfare racket for our current status. When a retailer has to wait for the end of month for the EBT deposits to clear, they want to see ‘cash’ a whole lot more in the in-between. Even debit cards that are directly (electronically) attached to a real account clear faster than EBT does: nearly, though not quite, as fast as Cash. (and have you noted how few are willing to accept a personal check these days? Look around, its pretty big.)

I keep saying all the fun and games of bunker busters and BigBeautifulBills (choke) and riots and NO ARRESTS nor LISTS of participants (seriously starting to think that Trumped IS on that list,,,)

Its all Kabuki theater to keep the real issues behind smoke and mirrors. Its what they aren’t saying that is worrying me. The Iran and Israel ’12 day war’ is/was staged events from all the information coming out. That we cut all shipments of armaments to the Kraine is telling as well. (should have never started but hey,,, I’m a dust mote in the eye of the internet. NAY!, smaller than that even.) And that most of Russias investment in Iran has been obliterated and Putin did nothing,,,, (nothing in the public eye, who knows what calls were made, deals made behind closed doors and under the radar sorta things.)(maybe our cutting armaments to the Kraine was part of that, who knows, but its pretty telling that both are closely related in time and space.)

And ya know what? IDGAFF!!! At least not about the world stage. Shits to kray-kray on the local scene to give a damn what the wannabeTyros are doing. its not like I can stop them,,, All I can do is what I’m doing right here, right now: talking about it and hoping others can see what I see. That we are pawns on a board game, and until we say, “I WILL NOT COMPLY”, we will remain as such,

So many are scared of ‘No Government’ but fail to see that Government is the problem. Entitled classes of people that carry no weight, but are drains on the system, all by Government decree. While the ones that support the system get totally shit on, and raped financially. This was my big argument with Lawyer boy: ‘if you want more of something, you subsidize it. Less? You tax it.” and he immediately went into that progressive fall back, ‘think of the children’ argument,,, I just threw my hands in the air,,,

A hermitage is not the answer, though it sounds so frellin’ good to me right now. Just throw in the towel, load a pack or a kayak and GO, no looking back…

Ain’t gonna happen, but oh so very tempting,,,,

I don’t know if I was born in the wrong time period, but those days back in the early 1900’s look better than the world as we have now. Maybe the medicine was worse, but then, I look at pictures of the people then and the obesity factor was magnitudes smaller than now. Walking through a wallyworld today (don’t ask, it was an essential need.)and the number of blubberized Landwhales,,,, Shush Dio,, ya ain’t exactly a skinny either! {fuck off you!,,, I know the belly ain’t what it was, but THAT is the only issue I face.} <and lets face it,,, our diets, all the processed shit, chemical additives, high carb GMO laden GARBAGE we are allowed to consume (if you want to stay in a budget that is) is NOT helping the obesity problem.>

ROFLMAO,,, yes, guys, that is a little window into my mind, the conversations I have with myself, and why Brudda B always tells me “stop overthinking this”,,, cause he can see the multiple lines of thought crossing my face,,, I can’t poker face for shit,,,

On that note,,, I saw where big pharma is attempting to drive RFKjr out of the picture. I don’t agree with all he has said, but there are things in our world that are not right and he has proof that these things are no small part of why our health in this country is questionable. Add in, that at least half of the drugs being advertized are psychotropic mood stablizers (aimed at women,, Hmm,,,) or correcting physical issues like obesity and ALL have side effects that, as advertized, seem far worse than what they are targeting,,,, I listen to Pandora at work, Free version so I get the commercials,,, and almost all of them are Pharma, or gambling.(with the obligatory pandora prime commercial tossed in) And there have been a slew of new ones for mental health, online therapy groups.

Yah,,, We’s all fuggin Nutzo

If someone were trying to destroy this nation, without firing a shot, THIS would be the method they would employ. Health and mental degradation: We are THERE. Throw in Division groups, racial, ethniic, political, ideological, and you have a recipe for collapse, needing only one spice to make the recipe complete: Hyper-inflation.

We haven’t hit the hyper point YET, but when it comes, it comes on fast, like a Starship exploding over the Bahamas. (sorry Elon,,, I hadta)

Anyone recall from history, what happens when a country dives into the Hyper-Inflation mode? (Weimar Republic, Zimbabwe, others lesser known,) And its not just the economy that implodes, but that culprit at the top. GOVERNMENT.

And people still beg for government to ‘fix it’.,,,, Little pansies protected from their own bad choices,,, TRUE Freedom is not protection, but risk: you make a bad choice, you suffer the consequences. And our Government is full of people that have never been punched in the face for bad choices.
