Nuthin’ important rilly

Just some thoughts I had on waking, of all things, about Haiti,,,,

First thought.   MEDIA LIES, ALL THE TIME.   so keep that in the forefront for what follows.

Leader is an Ex-cop with the nickname BarBQ,,,   (media is saying this with one intent, interveiw with dood says ‘mama called me that’ and if you see an image of the boy, he likes to eat,,)

Word has it there is canniblism taking place.  (fear factor,  enemedia loves Fear factors.)  and near as I can tell have only one instance recorded of it and THAT could have been and LIKELY WAS staged for the cameras.   again, that fear factor thing,,,,,  

Looking at weaponry in use: I saw a couple .    That ain’t ‘outta grampy’s closet’ weaponry.   Thats right out of some military or LEO armory.

The Prime Minister of Haiti is NOT IN COUNTRY, fled for his life or was out when the shit went down, or something, but word is, can not return,,,  Well, yeah, airports shuttered whatnot, second part of that being: if you know there is a VIOLENT Coup taking place, would you WANT to return?   I say no, but then, I am just a little fish and there are big EneMedia giants out there,,,,

and back to the start of this thread.  MEDIA LIES,,,,,

What I see is a piss-poor country thirdworld shit hole and some of its people have had enough.   They wanna take back the power.   This is a shithole country that has been used and abused by the left as a money laundering scheme for at least a couple of decades, supposedly (ask Epstein) as a source for young female things for human trafficing, and thats just the stuff that has been leaked,,,,  What other bad shit has happened in that place?   No one knows.   

NOW< are these people gonna get airbussed here by our TREASONOUS REGIME to add more poison into the system they are trying to destroy?   Probably, There are already congresscreatures warning just that and they ALWAYS telegraph intents,,,, Keep an eye out for that.   BUT, I think the ones that would be the trouble are gonna ‘stay home’ and try to make something OTHER  out of thier situation  

THE SITUATION CAN BE READ MANY WAYS,,,, But what I see is a revolution to clear out the problem people that have been milking the country dry.   (and updated to add: and in a week, this is gonna be swept under a rug so that we have THE NEXT GREAT DISTRACTION!!!! just watch, in 10 days, the news is gonna be about anything except Haiti,,,,)

more later


Long days, no complaints

But it does cut into my writing,,, thinking even,,,  

Managed another full day today, and that puts me on good footing this week in the financial department.  As in, I ain’t gonna figure what gets cut to make the bills happen.   I WILL NOT default on payments! I may have to go bare bones, minimum payment (rare, but does happen) but they will get paid.   And one of my debts is the kids/fourfeets.  THEY WILL EAT, even if I do not.   (and I could do several posts about how that mindset of mine is why I bump rough edges here, because there’re some here’bouts, that if things get tight, the pets get the short end of the pointy stick that hurts; usually by dropping them off in my neck of the woods,,,,  But I digress.)

Anywhooos,,,, I started a post this AM before leaving for the J.O.B. but the clock ran out on me and I had to hit save and roll.

And now,,,  GAH!,,, y’all ain’t missin’ nothin’ by my roundfiling that one. 

But now, I am ‘whutz I gonna come up with now after that pathetic effort of dreck,,,,;

and

crickets,,,,,   Even the peanut gallery of characters in my head is silent today,,,,

I think I cooked my brains in the sun today and everyone up there is hiding in the darker corners trying to keep cool.

So, y’all have to take this little post as THE post of the day,,,,   I should be back on track soon enough, like early in the AM before I burn out the circuits in the skull.    

keep on livin’


Dumb is dumb,

and then you have Tee-totally STOOPID!!!!

Yeah, we have this window where our guys are really not doing much, so instead of PAYING THEM TO DETER,,,,,

And then you ADVERTISE THE FACT!!!!

O,,,

K,,,,   Gotcha,,,  

Lord above,      Feeling a bit like Job and the testing of his faith,,, Ok, maybe NOT quite that bad, but the level of stoopid we are subjected to these days,,,,,

Oh, and I thought Kamalala-dingdong was the one that made her position using kneepads,,,,,

I guess all that botox makes it easier to use those jaw muscles without cramping,,,,   

————————————————————-

managed a full 8 at the J.O.B. today,,, YES!!!   Now, to keep the roll going.  not sure that’s going to be doable, since we have been in slowdown, and what we have, I don’t know,,,,   Fingers crossed, HARD!    but three days to go and already, I have as many hours as I have managed each of the past two weeks, so,,,,   This one should be better than I have been seeing.  

Now, I am not whining,,, its March, and March is where I get hit with extra bills, like my Truck Registration and such.  Granted, I was well aware of this coming and should have made extra efforts to prepare for it,   Only hooman: made some mistakes and got a little greedy (buying a drysuit,,,registration for a kayak race,,,,)  And now I pay with struggles.    Shoot self in foot? don’t whine to us, you limpy fool,,,,right?   LOL       Right,, got it,,, 

gonna call it an early night, keep the fires low to draw through the night and get an early start tomorrow.   talkatchay’all then,,,


8 Months,,,

Until November,,,,

not a lot of time when you really think about it.   2/3rds of a year,,,   and after one leaves school, time starts accelerating at a prodigious pace: we have all found that out.    Makes hearing the words of our grans,  when they told us ‘slow down’, mean something.

No matter what happens these coming months, I can tell you this: it will be worse than we desire, and not so bad as we can imagine.

and thats about the most heartening thing I can come up with. Because whatever is coming, is going to be coming at us fast and furious, with nary a chance to get our feet back under us before that next thing happens.  

I have spent the last two days looking at my world, where the weak links are, what needs addressed soonest before things get to krazzeee and can’t be addressed at all or within reasonable means.   Preps, like food, no worries, but it won’t be fun stuff.  Good, but not fun,,, rather boring actually.   Ammo, well, you never have enough ammo,,,,   Transportation is my key issue of focus,,, new shoes for Buffalo, back up drivetrain ‘just in case’ (and I do have that, but it will be a bear to make happen,,,, hell, even in good times a drive train swap is a bear,,,,)   And looking things over,,, I am actually not bad off; things that need addressed, but aren’t going to be stoppers to keeping upright and breathing.   Yes, I could use more income (who couldn’t?!?!) to get things in order faster, but I have learned the key to progression, INCREMENTS;  A little here, a little there, and you DO move forward.   Bite too big or too deeply and you may find you slide backwards.   

Such as right now,,, I feel like I’ve lost some ground, but looking around, I am holding just fine, even though my forward momentum is lacking.   I can get back on that wagon, I just need to be more attentive to HOW,,,   Yes, cash makes the world go round FOR NOW: that may not be the case so much in another year, or three.   There was a time when ‘Credit’ was strictly local, of low interest and ON CHARACTER, and those days are fast approaching again. I feel.  The days of easy credit under ursurous rates will be gone, along with international banking cartels.  

at least I can hope international banking cartels will be a thing of the past.   Not real hopeful since bankers have been with us since biblical days,,,,   I just don’t wanna see the world level power mongers we are encumbered with now.  (rothschilds, rockefellers, etc  if misspelled, no apologies, don’t care,,,note; lower case ‘names’)

I feel confident that we are on the cusp of a new level of society, where local becomes the norm, and large scale, top down governance becomes a thing lost with no remorse (in most cases,  I am sure there will always be the pathological power-hungry amongst us,,  they will miss the big circuses.)  My only hope is to live long enough to see its birth.  Hope, not plans.   I have no illusions that I may not make another 10 years in this oncoming dumpster fire of a future we will be witness to.

And I know that if it gets too heavy for my wee brainium to handle, the woods and rivers are still there,,,,   Small respites are better than none,,,,   Speaking of which,  I REALLY need to get a weekend off and lose myself in the wilds.    soonest,,, I keep saying that,,,,  sigh

Anywhooosits,,,, its Muhnday-moanin’, I have ONE good day towards my paycheck this week and hope to continue that trend into TUrdSday(payday),,,, (friday is the beginning of my payweek)   And nows, I need to get my arse in motion to the J.O.B. and see if such is possible.  more laters, as I catch on to the fallout of the SOTUfarce.  (so far, the backlash has been epic, and seeing how the enemedia is handling it; quite amusing,,,,)


Oops!

Just some tidbits I liked and some oopsies from elsewhere.

Yup, we’z the clumsy ones

AND our tools WILL reflect our spirit.   Betcha they are scrambling to rewrite the code to bury this “oops”,,,,

Gonna need to get some o’these,,,,   just watch “drone footage/Ukraine” to get a feel what modern warfare is evolving into.

Actually, NO, not 100% true.  Trade still goes on, people still live lives, teachers will still teach, preachers will still Shepard their congregations, and the world never stops moving.   Individuals may cease,  but not the world at large.   The last part of that statement is ‘mostly ‘ true:  if ya can’t stand over it and defend it with your life, you don’t truly own it.  Your name may be attached to property by deed,  but when the wheels of war roll,  things get gray. 

BUT,,,

Are we headed there?  Or will the wheels of the world economy come apart first?  Or will the over-reach of a fraudulent government take the next step? We don’t know; all we can do is make best guesses and prepare for worst-case.  So many forks ahead,  like the delta of a great river reaching the sea,,,  just limbs and leaves obscuring the view to the future.   We know there will be freesailing somewhere ahead,,, if we don’t lose our way in the labyrinth getting there,,,, but the water ALWAYS reaches the ocean,,,, go with the flow,,,but do it smartly

Sure ain’t  like the 80’s when I grew up.  Ignorance was bliss,,,,

Things that make ya go ‘Hmmmm?’,,,

We have only one direction we travel in time,,,   always forward.  And  individually control little more than what we can touch by hand within reach,,, 

Nothing wrong with me,

Nothing wrong with me,

Thanks fer reminding me Ragin’Dave

I hate that!

Granted, that ‘hate’ thing is something I need to work on,,,, I don’t ‘hate’, I may dislike things, but to level it up to ‘hate’,,,   That causes psychic issues y’know,,,,

BUTS,,, Lets get to that thing I started with,,,,   I strongly dislike (better?) being told ‘You must,,,” anything.  I get along fairly well on my personal ethics and don’t rock the boat too often in societal ways, I am certainly not runnin’ round stealin’, lootin’, rapin’ n’ murderin’ people,,, yeah, that pushes the envelope pretty far.   You can be a worm in the apple of society and not be doin’ those things, but still causing rot in the whole.   My neighbor Cuz for example, not that I want to shine light on him; it hurts my eyes to look upon that pustule,,,,  

I hate being told “You MUST,,,” comply, abide, fall in line, what have you,,,   It was the biggest thing I fought with during bootcamp (I think that is normal actually, but it seemed like it took me longer than the rest,   Or maybe, I’m just more stubborn,,,)  And the DI’s never actually broke me, I just learned to shut it, hide it away and carry on, and when not under scrutiny, do my thing my way UNLESS I found the way they demanded worked better than mine ideas; It did happen,,,,   I’m stubborn, not stoopid: it just seems that way at times.

So whats got me in my ‘ya gotta’ mode today.    Actually, the problem is ME,  I am trying to convince myself that I need to make some changes in my ways (financially, in pre-emption of whats coming and already being felt on the homefront,,,) and I can feel the klownkar ME getting uppity about it.   Mostly doing away with some luxuries I enjoy that do nothing but ‘feelgoodz’: drink and certain eats that are pricey.   At least I have one article in my arsenal against the klownkar ME,  limited assets to attend to the acquisition of such.  So, I am attempting to find things to bribe the klownkar me with to appease the losses,,,    Because I hate strongly despise “You MUST,,,,”

And there is a part of me that is thinking ‘yaknow, there’s a lot of stuff in this house that hasn’t been used in ages,,,, why not start liquidating,,,,’

NOT TOOLS. NEVER TOOLS.   GUNS IS TOOLS, BOOKS IS TOOLS.  I’m talking things like cloths that haven’t been worn in a decade, a kayak or two that I am likely to not paddle again (very specific circumstances) etc etc.   Just to ‘lighten the load’ a bit you unnerstan’,,,   I do this about once a decade: empty the cup zen style.   I’ll make three piles.   “Keep, Maybe Keep, and Gone!”  then go through the first two again until I am down to two piles; Keep, and GONE.    The Gone pile goes out for sale and what doesn’t sell goes to GW or SA and out of my life.   It sounds complicated-ish, but its quite effective at keeping me from burying myself under useless trivets of dust collectors.   My keepsakes for memories are all small things, usually paper in origin, so that they can be hung on walls, or stacked in small containers until such time as,,,   I don’t like bulk: my books and tools are plenty enough bulk, and are always useful so get freepass.

and there is a part of me that wants to resort back to that part of my life where I could load everything I owned/needed into ONE PICKUP TRUCK and move.   Sure was less headachy then,,,  Lookin’ about the house, I think a 23′ boxtruck and that pickup would do it these days.  That bothers me some, but I know that my means are greater now (more knowledge, more tools, more books)   The trick is figuring out the dead wieght and trimming it.

and it all goes back to being filled with wanderlust.   Always been something of a nomadic in my history in this sphere: this is the LONGEST I have ever been in one place (and why my acquisitions have grown,,,)  To that end though, I did right in designing my house so small, Keep the square footage down and you tend to be a bit more frugal in WHAT you are willing to bring in.   No crazy furniture sets (no room) no realestate eating frippary,  keep it spartan and things ‘work’; start fillin’ the niches and the arteries clog.

It’s Sonday, its cold, its wet, and feels like one of the three last gasps of winter out there.   its my day to do the domestics that keep my world running between weekends.   Its the day we tack on an hour to the front by stealing it from the hindend, and my rythm is already wonked out.   BUT, the world hasn’t blown up, burned down, or fizzled out (Guessing, since the only way I know is by phone service up here.  no phone, somethings wrong,,,, has phone so the world is limping still.)   We carry on, its what we do.

keep on livin’


apologies for the day off

We all need ’em now and again.    And to be honest, about the only thing I had to talk about was the PseudoSOTO theater that shouldn’t have been aired,,,, Nuff said, right?

This weekend is once again DeStoopidTime,,,  DST, move the clocks forward one hour,,, or as some Indian Chief once said “only white man could think you can make the day longer by chopping off its tail to add to its head.”    Seems to me that we are already sick in body with all the weather and whatnot, now we are gonna add to the fun by fucking with our circadian rythms.  yay,,,,

damn, And I thought I was in a good mood this mornin’,,,,

must be the grump in me,  looking out at rainy day, knowing that by the time I could be on water the winds are supposed to be ripping hard as a low pressure system moves in, along with cold and MORE wet,,,,   Wanna get out there, really really do, but  still fighting this crud, still hacking crap out of my lungs, and yeah, mostly due to allergies and the resultant drainage into the airmovers, but DO NOT WANT TO TIP THE SCALES TO WORSE.   

Soon,,,,,

Easter lilies are abloom everywhere I look.   The Bradford Pear trees started poppin’ blooms this week and there are patches of white on every hill.   Next week or two should see the redbuds poppin up, followed by the Dogwoods.   THEN we will be in full fledged spring mode and water time starts to become the regular occurance for your somewhat faithful blogger here.

‘Bout danged time,,,,   and I find it funny, I bought that drysuiit this year, in full faith that I was gonna start getting MORE water time in, and just about the time it showed up, sicker’n’a’dawg and couldn’t shake it.   Beat the hell out of me.  (for an idea of HOW badly it kicked me.  I am down to 185 from 205.   My fighting weight, but NOT how I wanted to get there if you know what I mean.)   Thats alright though; I have next winter to use the thing.  Its an investment to the future  paddles.

As for the world.   Starting to think that we are going to see MAD MAD MAD DEPRESSION on these shores.   Financial type depression.   I say ‘starting to think’, but to be honest, been there for some time.  I can’t see many other ways that the NWO can tear it down enough to do what “They’ want, and if they can’t have thier ‘utopia’, NO ONE GETS ONE.  They intend to destroy what we have, for their plans and if that ain’t gonna happen: destroydestroydestroy.   Deploying the DebtBomb will do that, short term.   And the key players for that are all online, and those that jumped on the BRICS bandwagon are prepared.   Signs that certain types are already abandoning the PetroDollar are everywhere and starting to show in the markets on these shores. 

Gotta say, (and I know some of ya already did this) if you have a retirement account, might wanna start moving it into something more tangible, something you can hold, something that ain’t monopoly money,,,   Might wanna start on that yesterday as the only direction things are headed is DOWN and next month, things might cost three times more than now.(or more,,,  who knows for certain, but being ready is never a bad thing.)

I need to see about more brass, since my means don’t go as high as silver currently.   Is what it is, and will be what it will be, and I have the means of other methods to keep upright and breathing.   Just gotta stay healthy enough,,,,  

sigh   

Who knows: there are those that say ‘Downturns sometimes are the upwind some need to become better”   Maybe a downturn is what I need to fulfill my desire to become a teacher,,,   You know, when the money is meaningless, those that have held on and held on, hoping against hope that their retirements would be worth something, are gonna bail the fastest.   Cops and such for example.  Most of’em are gonna see the writing on the wall, see that what they are being paid doesn’t balance with the risks, and walk.   Same with most state employees,,,    BUT, the needs will still be there and there is going to be a lull in services; yet I think AmeriCANS are gonna step up and pull through.   I have seen locally how some services are already lacking, but the people in the area stepped in and did the fixing.   Granted it was potholes in a sideroad, but it was NOT the county that fixed it.   County is only worried about the maindrags/highways because that is what THEIR bosses see as they drive through,,,   Typical Potemkin village thinks: Show a good facade and fuck the reality.

The only thing worse than living in a decline, is KNOWING IT WAS NOT NECCESARY,,,   Like learning from history, and knowing that almost no one else does.  

Cycles, seasons, rythms,

theres a time to sow, a time to reap, Time to work a time to rest,,,,

y’all know the biblical passage I refer to,,,,

Here we are.   

MORE LATERS,,,,,
