Strange Daze: “With such violence the great city of Babylon will be thrown down, never to be found again.”
byVanderleunonJanuary 3, 2022
Had Enough Therapy?: Are Americans Devolving into Children? Despite the incoherent gibberish flowing from the mouths of our political leaders, the nation feels broken. The reason is simple. We seem to have overreacted to the virus and have gone for a no-risk approach. We have not measured the cost of the shutdowns, of the school closures, of remote business businesses and of ensuring that people cannot socialize: Things feel broken. The pandemic seems like a Möbius strip of bad news. Companies keep postponing back-to-the-office dates. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention keeps changing its rules. Political discord has calcified into political hatred. And when people have to meet each other in transactional settings — in stores, on airplanes, over the phone on customer-service calls — they are, in the words of Ms. Luna, “devolving into children.”
Looking back, I now judge it to be a miserable burden.
Hell, observe the male turkey & deer in your yard and tell me it’s not a constant miserable burden.
Dr Fauci’s Retirement Pay Will Exceed $350,000 Per Year: The Largest In U.S. Federal Government History | For the second year in a row, Fauci was the most highly compensated federal employee and out earned the president, four star generals, and roughly 4.3 million of his colleagues. As director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Fauci earned $434,312 in 2020, the latest year available, up from $417,608 in 2019. Fauci is currently the Chief Medical Advisor to the President. However, his big salary boost came in 2004 under the George W. Bush Administration (as we reported earlier at Forbes) when Fauci received a “permanent pay adjustment” for his biodefense work. In January 2000, Fauci was also appointed to the Ready Reserve Corps, a corps of “officers on full-time extended active duty.”
Hollywood Elites Panic-Buy Armored-Cars And Safe-Rooms Amid Rising Violent Crime | Estate manager Bryan Peele, president and founder of the L.A.-based Estate Managers Coalition, said his clients have “fully equipped safe rooms that they can live in for a few days, if necessary, that are completely hard-wired with phone cables, Internet, everything.” One of Peele’s clients has three bulletproof cars and wears fake Rolexes. “This guy will take a $200,000 Rolex and copy it, using stainless steel and other metals, so it looks like the original but costs maybe $2,000-$3,000 per watch. So, in the event that it’s stolen, the client is out a lot less money,” he said.
You Have No Idea How Much $1 Billion Is The wealth of billionaires around the world has been growing at a mind-boggling 20% recently year-over-year. (It helps when you have enough money to literally open an investment firm solely dedicated to making your richer.) What does that mean for you? Well, you don’t have time to get the family wealth office fully off the ground yet, so let’s be safe and give you a 10% interest rate. That means you’re looking at a cool $100 million that you’re going to have to spend next year if you want to just keep your money right where it is. If you fail to do so, then that billion will jump to $1.05 billion next year. So now you have to spend over $100 million to keep your wealth from increasing. But maybe blowing through just $5 million a month instead is enough for you. Well if it is, then 10 years after starting at $1 billion flat and spending $60 million each year, your net worth will have actually increased to $1.5 billion. That’s almost $200,000 each day, which is more than the average American household earns in 3 years. Keep in mind that all of this assumes you aren’t earning a single dollar during that 10 year period and that you’re exclusively living off the $1 billion you started the decade with. How. Crazy. Is. That. To apply this to someone like Bill Gates, just multiply all these numbers by 100. He would need to give away $1 billion a year to keep his fortunate from growing. The logistics of doing so are dizzying, and I imagine there are few charities (his own included) that have the infrastructure to deal with this sort of cash.
Elon Musk Just Offloaded Another $1 Billion In Stock Just hours after we reported that Wedbush’s Dan Ives raised his price target on Tesla to $1,400, we found out that Elon Musk has offloaded yet another $1 billion in stock. The Tesla CEO sold the 934,090 shares, according to filings published late on Tuesday night. Additionally, Musk exercised a grant to buy 1.6 million shares at a strike price of just $6.24 per share from a compensation plan dating back to 2012, CNBC reported.
(UN)Chained Heat: Woman sexually assaulted by biological male inmate who identifies as female in Washington state prison Jazzy confessed to having been able to keep the fact that a full transition had not been undergone and was able to keep the male genitalia a secret from officials. Jazzy claimed to have been “pretending to cry” to get out of the examination and accused the prison staff of prejudice. According to the inmate, Jazzy claimed to have effectively manipulated the examiners to the point a nurse cried along with Jazzy while Jazzy protested the strip search. Jazzy isn’t the only biological male inmate who identifies as transgender who has allegedly sexually assaulted female prisoners at WCCW. A biological male named Hobby Bingham, who after transitioning goes by the name Princess Zoee Marie Andromeda-Love, sexually assaulted former female inmate Heather Trent. Both Flemming and the inmate told National Review that Andromeda-Love sexually abused Heather Trent who is mentally disabled and has the disposition of a “little girl.”
The fact that humans rose to their two feet and left beasthood behind, is a wonder that should leave us speechless our whole lives. The biggest event ever!
We should everyone have a smile that can’t be wiped from our face.
“No Book With a Submarine on the Cover Ever Lost Money”Dark Roasted Blend: Amazing Submarine Concepts:Made for warfare, exploration and sometimes just for sheer national pride, (let’s see who’s got the biggest) submarines can be both a technological wonder and an ultimate nemesis, especially when stuffed with nuclear weapons capable of destroying Earth 10 times over.

Two Men Executed Cartel-Style in Texas Border CityBROWNSVILLE, Texas — Unknown gunmen dumped the bodies of two men executed cartel-style near a local public park. The men were shot in the head, their arms and legs were tied, and their faces covered with t-shirts as hoods.
Doctors Outraged After Biden Regime Shuts Down Life-Saving Monoclonal Antibody Treatments › However, the CDC has now admits that it seriously miscalculated the prevalence of the Omicron variant in the US, according to the Daily Mail reported, “overblowing the figure by as much as 50 percentage points, sowing confusion as the nation breaks records for new cases.” The agency released a revised chart on Tuesday showing that the new variant accounted for 23 percent of all COVID-19 cases for the week ending on December 18, as opposed to the 73 percent it originally reported. The chart showed that the Omicron variant accounted for 59 percent of all new cases for the week ending on December 25, meaning the Delta variant has been accounting for far more infections than the agency initially thought, though Omicron is gaining ground quickly.
LOL: CNN Lost ANOTHER 38% Of Viewers in 2021 – While analysts claim the decline is due to President Trump leaving office, one might posit that it has more to do with the torrent of bullshit pouring out the mouths of every anchor and talking head visible on the networks, and practically every ‘journalist’ woefully attempting to disguise their opinions as real news in the Post and the Times.
Revelation 18 NIV – The Finality of Babylon’s Doom 21 Then a mighty angel picked up a boulder the size of a large millstone and threw it into the sea, and said:
“With such violence
the great city of Babylon will be thrown down,
never to be found again.
22 The music of harpists and musicians, pipers and trumpeters,
will never be heard in you again.
No worker of any trade
will ever be found in you again.
The sound of a millstone
will never be heard in you again.
23 The light of a lamp
will never shine in you again.
The voice of bridegroom and bride
will never be heard in you again.
Your merchants were the world’s important people.
By your magic spell all the nations were led astray.
24 In her was found the blood of prophets and of God’s holy people,
of all who have been slaughtered on the earth.”
Huh, three years and 137 million dollars to build a Wuhan virus test strip factory. Implantable micro-chips to verify vaxx status. If one didn’t no better, he could be forgiven for concluding that the Wu is here to stay.

I read the whole apocalyptic tidal wave of a post. The funniest part was revealed by the guy in the first video, Salty Cracker. Mass Formation Psychosis. By late week it’ll be officially deemed to be what makes conservatives (is that still a word?) tick. It will be our malady, because Google/YouTube/Twitter will deem it as such. However they want you, that’s the way you’ll be.
But, for one brief moment, one short news cycle of a day or two, it is ahead of the shit-writers in the fever swamps. As Salty said, they are still on holiday, and haven’t had time to conjure up the alternative meaning, or the counter-argument that Google approves. In the meantime, Google scare-alerts you that it may mean what Dr Rbt Malone says it means, but be advised that the meaning is in flux. Come Tuesday, MFP will mean that anyone not fully organized in his mind and actions around the new order, are suffering mass hypnosis or even insanity.
But, for one brief interlude, one sweet present of time, it means the fux whose heads are tightly screwed to the bottle of STATE medicine and doom-telling prophets of the god: Covidz. The airport wankers who cancelled flight en-masse for: a common cold.

The best part of this edition of “Strange Daze” (in the clown-world shit-show) was the video from atop Mt. Everest….though disappointing to see it so over-run with a train of people. It reminded me of Summers in the Collegiate Range of Colorado or even Long’s Peak on the Front Range.
The funniest entry was, of course, Salty Cracker. He is one hilarious dude!
All the rest, due to no fault of yours, Dear Gerard, is just more of the same old clown-world shit-show….I am having trouble even smiling about any of it anymore.
azlibertarianJanuary 3, 2022, 5:23 PM
I’m gonna have to go back and read all the content here, but regarding “You have not idea how much $1 Billion is”, I’m probably repeating myself here, but most of us have no idea what any large number really means.
My little mechanism goes….
You probably have some idea of how long a second is. “One Thousand, One; One Thousand Two” or “One Mississippi; Two Mississippi” are common ways of understanding a second of time.
But what about a million seconds in the past? When was that? The math isn’t hard, but you’ll find that a million seconds ago was 11 days in the past [11.57 days, to be precise. Given that today is the 3rd of January that puts it at 23 December].
What about a billion seconds? More math tells us that a billion seconds ago was in 1991. A billion seconds=31.7 years.
Now do a trillion. A trillion seconds in the past was in…………29,687 BC.
So when our .gov talks about a “Trillion dollar” this-or-that, imagine yourself standing there with a stack of $1 dollar bills, and your job is to peel one off every second until you get to a trillion. You’d be there for the next 31,700 years.
Sen. Manchin tells me that Biden’s “Build Back Better” plan [sic] will cost $4.5 trillion. Rounding my public math: 4.5×31700=142700 years at $1/second. CNN (I know, I know) tells a somewhat less daunting story: BBB will cost $1.9 trillion. 60,248 years.
Not for nothing, but our debt clock is at $29.6 trillion and climbing.
ghostsniperJanuary 3, 2022, 5:45 PM
That $29.6 tril is reverse window dressing.
It’s north of $200,000 tril.
Right.
That is more than everything on the planet, including all the people, everything!, is worth.
It is an amount that can NEVER be repaid.
“To boldly go where no man has gone before….”
Kevin in PAJanuary 3, 2022, 7:06 PM
One means of measure for perspective that I thought rather powerful;
If you spent $1,000 each and every day from the time Christ walked the earth to the year 2000, you would still not have spent $1 Billion.
I don’t know about anyone else, but I don’t think that I could spend that much money, ever.
The bottom line is that the idiots driving the clown bus have lost their minds when it comes to sensible financial practices.
Any bets on a U.S. Govt default in what’s left of Biden’s term?. Only one possible way to fix the 200 trillion dollar black hole. That’s flush it.

Any bets on a U.S. Govt default in what’s left of Biden’s term?….
Nope. I’m not going to take that bet. But in (undeserved) fairness to Biden, I’ve been saying that for quite a while. It doesn’t matter how or what you measure….M1, M2, the “Money Supply”, Fed Deposits, fed.gov debt, other debts–state, corporate, student loan, etc……they’re all growing exponentially. And if there is one thing that Joe Sixpack should have learned through this pandemic, it is that an exponential growth in something is unsustainable.
What most don’t know is that our Federal Reserve is our fourth Central Bank. Oh, they’ll dance around the issue and TARP this or QE that in order to kick the can down the road, but IMO, it is the nature of central banking for them all to fail eventually. And when they do, Joe Sixpack gets crushed. Everything he owns (bank accounts, investment accounts, retirement accounts, the equity in his home, etc.) is denominated in these little chits…nothing more than Chuck-E-Cheese tokens, really–and when the value of those chits goes to zero, he is left with nothing. How does he feed his family when there is nothing that he can lay his hands on to trade for what his family needs?
And when they all the Central Banks fail at the same time, something is going to give. We’re already in a trade and monetary “war” with China. How close are we to a shooting war?
I’m of two minds here, though. I can foam at the mouth about how bad things are and how much worse they’re going to get. But, I am also a grandfather, and I get so much satisfaction from living in that role. I can choose to be unhappy (and unpleasant to all around me), or I can choose to be happy about what makes me happy.

Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
