4 Good Morning Morons. Today is Sunday, October 3, 2021. On this day in 1789 George Washington proclaimed a Thanksgiving Day for that year. Lincoln changed it to the last Thursday of November where it remains today.

76 "Crumbling" infrastructure.

That's always the boilerplate vernacular in the "news".

If they say something is aging well, that just means hang on to your wallet, because they intend to tear it down and build a new one, usually a school. Kickbacks for all. They built really nice buildings in the 1900 1920 time period, and impossible to build with today's funny money. The cost to tear them down is outrageous alone. Fiscal responsibility, fiduciary on the part of taxpayer anywhere died in the 1980s.

Both blow the old "it's my money. I paid it in, and now I am just getting it back" lie out of the water.
It was always a pyramid scheme, and suckers who buy in after all the easy money is gone deserve to get taken. At some point American are going to have to admit they got taken in, and stop paying out new accounts, begin cutting existing payments, and slow then halt collections.

So, I kept it. Looking around, it's a really, really bad time to need to shop for a car. I refuse to pay ADM (Additional Dealer Markup).

We were dealing with a bad infestation of them a few years back (Thanks, China!). One of the cats I had back then was a Mighty Hunter and he attacked them without mercy. And then promptly spit them out because they tasted bad.

Most of the electronics in cars are pretty rugged. The chip fabs are looking at more circuit per chip for the standard consumer electronics with a 5 year life. That would not fly here if every 5 years the entire dash and ECU expire. But it is poor planning that GM, Ford, and Chrysler did not have the balls to go around congress et al (collusion) and put together a chip buying scheme for a foundry here on our soil.

194 We had that hard winter storm in Jan, and it took out a lot of the brown anoles, so bugs are up now. I'm pretty racist for green and against brown when it comes to anoles - the green ones are curious and friendly, while the browns are aggressive and drive the greens into a different ecological niche - but I'm also anti-bug, so hopefully the browns recover.

Brown anoles have been slowly expanding east from their starting territory in the Southwest. I never saw one at all until about 10-15 years ago, and now they've almost completely driven the greens off the ground and into trees. But they don't tolerate cold well. (Which means I'm seeing them now because of global warming!!!)

199 J&J Vaccine Possibly Linked To Two More Serious Health Conditions, EU Regulator Finds

https://bit.ly/3B9XAp4

The European Medicines Agency's Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) concluded that the use of the J&J vaccine is possibly linked with vein clotting and an immune condition that causes the immune system to attack blood platelets.

"The PRAC has concluded that there is a possible link to rare cases of venous thromboembolism (VTE) with COVID-19 Vaccine Janssen," the committee meeting highlights stated.

Venous thromboembolism "is a condition in which a blood clot forms in a deep vein, usually in a leg, arm, or groin, and may travel to the lungs causing a blockage of the blood supply, with possible life-threatening consequences," the committee said.

Janssen, a J&J company, did not respond to a request for comment.

I was reading earlier where there are instructions to the people giving the shots to not aspirate (IIRC) the syringe. I'm no syringologist but it's my understanding that means you inject and pull the plunger back a bit to see if you draw blood out, because if you do you're in a vein and you're sending your payload straight to the heart, and that's why there are often immediate reactions.

Someone mentioned that the nurse didn't do it in the Biden video, which might not matter if it's just a vitamin D or saline injection.

Just as the climate models predicted. See, it makes some areas warmer, but that heat is sucked out of other areas, making them colder.

227 I estimate upwards of 80% of people wearing masks outdoors are neurotic or sociopathic. The remainder suffer the false belief the masks offer them protection from becoming infected.

I try not to guess the motivation anymore; its become like driving through a neighborhood without an HOA and seeing some home with tall grass and other deferred maintenance. Could be a slob, could be vacant, could be elderly with health problems. Our reactions to them would heavily depend on the circumstance.

Though on the occasion I do go out in the live world, the number of foreigners, particularly Asian and Indian, greatly out number the late GenX and Boomer "white" crowd in mask wearing.

Though I do heavily suspect, and this is a data driven opinion, that exposure to social media is a very heavy influencer in NPI compliance even today.

So, I just assume these days that -

They certainly won't select someone based on intelligence, vision, leadership or experience. Decide which constituencies you believe are most important and check the boxes. It's how they roll.

And just in time for UK which has outlawed coal and natural gas for home heating in preference for the elusive wind/solar nightmare!

276 If Trump got blamed for telling the CDC not to use certain words in internal powerpoints, I think Biden gets the blame for hiding the effectiveness of Ivermectin, and denying the treatment to the 300,000 Americans who have died from covid and the other million or so who are permanently scarred.

*

I mentioned it a couple of days ago, but I have been on Ivermectin for three or four months and have never felt better. Not a f*cking sniffle, and we've got two young kids.

Someone else pointed out that we live in a pretty clean, fairly sanitary nation, but we still have anti-parasitic protocols for our dogs, cats, livestock, etc. But not for us.

It's anecdotal, but I can certainly see the problem with a ten cent pill with antiviral properties collapsing established national industries like flu shots and Theraflu sales.

ZeroHedge post on Uttar Pradesh (state in India) and ivermectin.

https://tinyurl.com/rkfyczts

Note that the WHO and our own CDC was involved in that. They gave out, en masse, some "covid kits". It cost the Indian govt less than $3 a pop. Totally stopped Covid in its tracks -- less than 5% vexxing rates in Uttar Pradesh.

Yes, we need Nuremberg 2.0 for these ghouls who have suppressed this.

289 >>J&J Vaccine Possibly Linked To Two More Serious Health Conditions, EU Regulator Finds

Just read about this.
OK, first, they say these should be added to the list of warnings. Warnings? Who is talking about warnings -- anything that doesn;t praise the vaccines is "misinformation" and deleted by Big Tech.

Second, this also assumes one has a choice about getting a vaccine, as well as which one you get. Biden and the rest are making sure there is only one "choice" - get it or lose everything. Also, when you schedule the jab or show up to a place for it, you DO NOT get to decide which one you get. You get what they're ofering.

So again, what's the point of warnings in this scenario?

Posted by: Lizzy at October 03, 2021 08:09 AM (bDqIh)

290 What "warnings" indeed?

There aren't any. Near as I can tell the official like is the Chicom Lung Rot Bioweapon vaccine is "safe" and "effective". That's why everybody has to wear dust masks, or something.

And all the potential side effects are clearly listed on the television advertisements.

Oh wait. No, they don't do that.

Posted by: Common Tater at October 03, 2021 08:15 AM (hbjKv)

291 I recommend anyone who has any interest in the information at the zerohedge url, save all the pages to pdfs while they're still up. Because they'll be gone soon.

(An aside: It looks like it's originally a desertreview piece and that link is up top, which is weird that they'd post it as their own unless there's an agreement)

AGain, this would matter if this were treated like most other vaccines and mediacations, but it's not.
We have bureaucrays working in concert with the pharmaceutical companies and employes (via threat of major fines for the latter) insisting everone gets it, no exceptions.

What's the point of pretending it's an informed decision?
It's not when so many mdecial exemptions are denied, no discussion, such as with pur military and the governor of NY.
