It has recently become clear to me that heavy oil, which is needed to produce diesel and jet fuel, plays a far more significant role in the world economy than most people understand. We need heavy oil that can be extracted, processed, and transported inexpensively to be able to provide the category of fuels sometimes referred to as Middle Distillates if our modern economy is to continue. A transition to electricity doesn’t work for most heavy equipment that is powered by diesel or jet fuel.
A major concern is that the physics of our self-organizing economy plays an important role in determining what actually happens. Leaders may think that they are in charge, but their power to change the way the overall system works, in the chosen direction, is quite limited. The physics of the system tends to keep oil prices lower than heavy oil producers would prefer. It tends to cause debt bubbles to collapse. It tends to squeeze out “inefficient” uses of oil from the system in ways we wouldn’t expect. In the future, the physics of the system may keep parts of the world economy operating while other inefficient pieces get squeezed out.
In this post, I will try to explain some of the issues with oil limits as they seem to be playing out, particularly as they apply to diesel and jet fuel, the major components of Middle Distillates.
[1] The most serious issue with oil supply is that there seems to be plenty of oil in the ground, but the world economy cannot hold prices up sufficiently high, for long enough, to get this oil out.
As I frequently point out, the world economy is a physics-based system. World oil prices are set by supply and demand. Demand is quite closely tied to what people around the world can afford to pay for food and for transportation services because the use of oil is integral to today’s food production and transportation services.
Heavy oil is especially involved in this affordability issue. As oil becomes “heavier,” it becomes more viscous, and thus more difficult to ship by pipeline. If oil is very heavy, as is the oil from the Oil Sands of Canada, it needs to be mixed with an appropriate diluent to be shipped by pipeline.
Heavy oil often has sulfur and other pollutants mixed in, adding costs to the refining process. Furthermore, heavy oil, especially very heavy oil, often needs to be “cracked” in a refinery to provide a desirable mix of end products, including diesel, jet fuel, and gasoline. This, too, adds costs. Otherwise, there would be too much of the product mix that would be like asphalt. Also, as noted previously, even if the costs of production are high, the selling price of diesel cannot rise very high without raising food prices. This tends to keep the prices of heavy crude oils below those for lighter crude oils.
Many people believe that the high level of “Proved Oil Reserves” worldwide makes it certain that businesses can extract as much oil as they would like in the future. A major issue is whether these reserves mean as much as people assume they do. Oil reserves of OECD countries (an association of the US and other rich countries) are likely to be audited, but reserves of other countries may not be. Asking a relatively poor oil-exporting country the amount of its oil reserves is like asking the country how wealthy it is. We should not be surprised by fibbing on the high side. The problem is that the vast majority of reported oil reserves (85%) are held by non-OECD countries. These reserves may be significantly overstated.
Also, even if the reserves are fairly reported, will the country have the resources to extract these reserves? Venezuela reports the highest oil reserves in the world thanks to its heavy oil in the Orinoco Belt, but it extracts a relatively small amount per year. An October 2022 article says that the country is waiting for foreign investment to expand production.
Going forward, oil companies everywhere need to worry about broken supply lines for necessary items, such as steel drilling pipe. They need to worry about finding enough trained workers. They need to worry about the availability of debt and the interest rate that will be charged for this debt. If private oil companies look at the true prospects and find them too bleak, they will likely use their profits to buy back the shares of their own oil companies instead (as is happening now).
[2] While oil producers can crack heavy oil to make shorter hydrocarbons in a way that is not terribly expensive, trying to make near-gasses and light oils into diesel becomes impossibly expensive.
It is easy for people to assume that any part of the oil mix is substitutable for another part, but this is not true. Cracking long hydrocarbon chains works to make shorter chains, but the economics tend not to work in the other direction. Thus, it is not economically feasible to make gasoline into diesel (which is heavier), or natural gas liquids into diesel.
[3] If there is inadequate oil supply, the impacts on the economy are likely to include broken supply lines, empty shelves, and inflation in the price of goods that are available.
If there is not enough oil to go around, some users must be left out. The result is that some of the less profitable consumers of oil may file for bankruptcy. For example, the Wall Street Journal recently reported Trucking Giant Yellow Shuts Down Operations. This bankruptcy makes it impossible for some stores to get the merchandise that would normally be on their shelves. As a consequence, it makes it likely that some replacement parts for automobiles will not be available when needed. There is a workaround of renting another vehicle while a person’s car is waiting for repairs, but this adds to total costs.
This workaround illustrates how a lack of adequate oil can indirectly lead to higher overall costs, even if the oil itself is not higher-priced. The need to work around supply line problems tends to lead to inflation in the prices of goods that continue to be available.
[4] The fact that the quantity of oil that could be affordably extracted was likely to fall short about now has been known for a very long time, but this fact has been hidden from the public.
In 1957, Hyman Rickover of the US navy predicted that the amount of affordable fossil fuels would fall short between 2000 and 2050, with the amount of oil falling short earlier than coal and natural gas.
The book The Limits to Growth by Donella Meadows and others, published in 1972, discusses the result of early modeling efforts with respect to resource limits. These resource limits were very broadly defined, including minerals such as copper and lithium in addition to fossil fuels. A range of indications were produced, but the base model (based on business as usual) seemed to show limits hitting before 2030 (Figure 1).
Since the resource limits include minerals of all types, these limits would seem to preclude a transition to clean energy and electric cars.
Educators, advertisers, and political leaders could see that discussing the oil problem would cause economic suicide. What would be the point of buying a car, if a person couldn’t use it for very long? Educators felt that students needed to be guided in the direction of hoped-for solutions, no matter how remote they might be, if university programs were to remain open.
Politicians and government officials wanted to keep voters happy, so the self-organizing economy pushed them in the direction of keeping the story from the public. They tended to focus on climate issues instead. They added biofuels to stretch the supply of gasoline, and to a lesser extent, diesel. They also increased the share of natural gas liquids. The selling price of these liquids tends to be quite low, relative to the price of crude oil.
They started providing reports showing “all liquids” rather than “crude oil,” in the hope that people wouldn’t notice the change in mix.
[5] The world’s number one problem today seems to be an inadequate supply of Middle Distillates. These provide diesel and jet fuel.
Diesel and jet fuel provide the big bursts of power that commercial equipment requires. Many types of equipment are dependent on Middle Distillates, including semi-trucks, agricultural equipment, ocean-going ships, jet planes, road-making equipment, school buses, and trains operating in areas with steep inclines.
Because of its concentrated store of energy, diesel is also used to operate backup generators and to provide electricity in remote areas of the world where it would be impractical to have year-round electricity without an easily stored fuel.
In Figure 3:
- Light Distillates are primarily gasoline (78% in 2022).
- Middle Distillates are diesel (82%) and jet fuel/kerosene (18%).
- Fuel Oil is a cheap, polluting, unrefined product. If environmental laws permit, it can be burned as bunker fuel (used in ships), as boiler fuel, or to provide electricity.
- The Other category includes near-gasses such as ethane, propane, and butane (58%). It also includes some very heavy oil used as lubricants, asphalt, or feedstocks for petrochemicals.
Until recently, it has been possible to increase diesel production by refining an added share of Fuel Oil. Fuel oil is quite heavy (barely a liquid), so it is well-suited to be refined into a mix that includes a large share of Middle Distillates.
Now we are running short of Fuel Oil to refine for the purpose of producing more Middle Distillates. The Fuel Oil that is still consumed is used in what I think of as the poorer countries of the world: the non-OECD countries (Figure 4).
Poor countries tend to value “low price” over “prevents pollution.” It is likely to be difficult to get these countries to move away from the use of Fuel Oil.
[6] Countries around the world are now competing for Middle Distillates to maintain the food production, road building, commercial transportation, and construction portions of their economies.
Figure 5 shows that since about 1983, consumption per capita for both Light Distillates and Middle Distillates has been generally slightly growing. Growth in usage tends to be higher for Middle Distillates than Light Distillates. The total quantity consumed is also higher for Middle Distillates.
The dip in consumption per capita in 2020 is much more pronounced for Middle Distillates than Light Distillates. For Middle Distillates, the change from 2018 to 2020 is -16%; the change from 2018 to 2022 is -7%. The corresponding changes for Light Distillates are -11% and -4%.
The difference in patterns in Light Distillates and Middle Distillates is not surprising: Gasoline, the main product of Light Distillates, has been the focus of efficiency changes. It is also possible to dilute gasoline with ethanol, made from corn. Voters in the US are particularly aware of gasoline availability and price, so politicians tend to focus on it.
Diesel and jet fuel, made using Middle Distillates, are less on the minds of voters, but they are probably more important to the economy because people’s jobs depend upon the economy in its current form holding together. Inadequate Middle Distillates leaves empty shelves in stores because of broken supply lines. It also leads to inflation of the type we have recently been experiencing. Indirectly, lack of Middle Distillates can lead to debt bubbles collapsing, and to problems of a different type than inflation.
Up until 2007, Middle Distillate consumption was generally increasing for both OECD countries and non-OECD countries. The Great Recession of 2008-2009 particularly affected OECD countries. European countries found their economies doing less well. For example, less diesel was used to operate tour boats carrying tourists; a larger share of available jobs were low-paid service jobs.
The year 2013 was a turning point of a different type. The consumption of non-OECD countries caught up with that of OECD countries. While non-OECD countries might like to maintain their rapid upward trajectory in the consumption of Middle Distillates, this no longer seems to be possible.
[7] Under the Maximum Power Principle, the physics of the economy pushes the economy toward optimal low-cost solutions, especially as the quantity of Middle Distillates approaches limits.
The economy, like every other ecosystem, operates under the principle of “survival of the best adapted.” In terms of the sale of goods, this means that the lowest-priced goods will tend to win out in a competitive environment, provided that they are of adequate quality and that the makers can earn an adequate profit in making them.
Furthermore, the makers of the goods must earn a high enough profit both for reinvestment and to pay adequate taxes to their governments. Payments of taxes to governments are essential; otherwise governmental collapse would occur due to the growing debt that cannot be repaid.
If inflation becomes a problem, rising interest rates would tend to push governments with large amounts of debt toward collapse because they would become unable even to make interest payments from current income.
In this self-organizing economy, buyers of goods don’t know or care much about the lives of the workers in the system. Optimal low costs of manufacturing in a world market might mean:
- Manufacturers have access to very inexpensive energy sources and use them.
- Pollution control is ignored to the maximum extent possible, without serious harm to the workers.
- Governments provide very little in the way of benefits to citizens, such as health care or pensions, keeping the cost of government low.
- Workers can get along on relatively low salaries because little heating or cooling of homes is needed.
- Workers don’t expect private vehicles, recreational activities, or advanced medical care.
Because the economy favors the lowest cost of profitable production, a person would expect that warm countries that use oil sparingly in their energy mix (India, the Philippines, and Vietnam, for example) would have a competitive edge over other countries in manufacturing.
In general, a person would expect non-OECD countries to outcompete OECD countries, especially if cheap fuel for manufacturing is available. The lack of cheap fuel is increasingly becoming a problem in many parts of the world. Coal used to be cheap, but its price can now spike. Natural gas prices can also spike, especially if natural gas is purchased without a long-term contract. Electricity using wind and solar tends to be high-priced, too, when the cost of transmission is included.
[8] The Maximum Power Principle seems to be pushing the EU away from diesel.
The EU has a serious oil problem. It has essentially no crude oil production of its own. Furthermore, oil production in Europe outside of the EU (mainly the UK and Norway) has been falling since 1999, greatly reducing the possibility of imported oil from this area (Figure 7).
Under these circumstances, members of the EU found that they needed to import nearly all of their oil, and that most of this oil needed to come from outside Europe.
When I look at the data regarding the types of oil the EU has chosen to consume (nearly all imported), I find that it uses an oil mix that is unusually skewed toward Middle Distillates and away from Light Distillates. (Compare Figure 8 with Figure 3).
Part of the reason the EU uses this skewed oil mix is because it has encouraged the use of private passenger cars using diesel through its tax structure. Underlying this tax structure was most likely an understanding that Russia, through its exports of Urals Oil, which is heavy, could provide the EU with the mix of oil products it needed, including extra diesel.
The EU has recently cut off most oil imports from Russia as a way of punishing Russia. This cutoff is being phased in, with most of the impact in 2023 and later. Thus, Figure 8 (which is through 2022) shouldn’t be much affected.
China and India are now buying most of Russia’s exported oil. These countries tend to use the oil more “efficiently” than the EU. In particular, they do more manufacturing than the EU, and they have far fewer private passenger cars per capita than the EU. Furthermore, the EU powers quite a few of its private passenger cars with diesel. If diesel is in short supply, efficiency demands that it should be saved for uses that require it, such as powering heavy equipment.
Because of the efficiency issue, I doubt that the EU will be able to continue importing as high a diesel mix in the future as it has been importing up to now. We know that Saudi Arabia cut back its oil exports by 1 million barrels per day, as of July 1, and this cutback is continuing into August. Russia is also cutting its production by 500,000 barrels a day, effective August 1. If oil prices rise again, I wonder whether the EU will be forced to cut back on its oil imports, essentially because of the Maximum Power Principle.
[9] The substitution of electricity for oil so far has been mostly in the direction of replacing gasoline usage for private passenger automobiles. Substitution of electricity for Middle Distillates would be virtually impossible.
Middle Distillates are largely used for the tough jobs–jobs that require big bursts of power. Electricity and the battery storage required for electricity are not adapted to these tough jobs. The vehicles become too heavy, especially when the big battery packs that would be required are considered. The Wall Street Journal recently reported that battery-powered commercial trucks can cost more than three times the price of diesel-powered trucks, a hurdle much smaller private passenger automobiles don’t face. The wide diversity of types of heavy commercial vehicles would be another huge hurdle in trying to substitute electricity for diesel.
Oil is a mixture of different hydrocarbon lengths. Substitution of electricity for one part of the hydrocarbon mix, namely for the Light Distillates, is not very helpful. Oil companies need to be able to sell all parts of the mix in order to make their extraction efforts worthwhile. If oil companies find themselves without buyers for most Light Distillates, they would have difficulty recouping their overall costs. There would be a possibility of oil production stopping. Without oil, farming would mostly stop. Road repair would stop. Today’s economy would come to a halt.
Of course, as a practical matter, the vast majority of the world will pay no attention to mandates that all private passenger automobiles be EVs. Buyers in most parts of the world will make decisions based on which cars are least expensive to own and operate. As a result, there is little chance of private passenger cars being completely replaced by EVs. Instead, EV mandates in some countries may somewhat reduce the selling price of gasoline worldwide because these drivers are no longer using gasoline. With lower gasoline prices, non-EV’s are likely to become cheaper to operate in countries where they are permitted, boosting their sales. This is an effect similar to Jevons Paradox.
[10] There are many related topics that could be addressed, but they will need to wait until later posts.
A few of samples of other issues:
[a] The world economy is tightly networked together. Inadequate oil supplies per capita tend to push the economy toward forced reduced activity, as was the case in 2020. Oil prices likely won’t rise a whole lot higher, for very long, if the economy is forced to shrink.
[b] Inadequate oil supplies per capita also tend to cause fighting among countries. OECD countries seem to over consume, relative to the benefits they provide to the rest of the world. Perhaps some grouping of non-OECD countries (or parts of countries) will take over in leadership roles.
[c] The self-organizing economy has different priorities than human leaders. All ecosystems in a finite world go through cycles. As conditions change, different species are favored, and new species emerge. Humans have a strong preference for recent conditions that helped humans thrive. Humans need a religion to follow, so leaders have created environmental sin to replace original sin. The catch is that ecosystems are built for change. Pollution can be viewed as a type of fertilizer for different types of species or recent mutations to thrive. Higher temperatures will have a net favorable effect for some organisms.
[d] If a local economy chooses to increase energy costs by taking steps to reduce its carbon footprint, the main impact may be to disadvantage the local economy relative to the world economy. If total energy costs are higher, the cost of finished goods and services is likely to be higher, making the economy less competitive.
[e] I expect that the members of the EU and other rich nations will be the primary countries pursuing carbon reduction technologies. Poorer economies may pay lip service to carbon reduction, but they will tend to focus primarily on increasing the welfare of their own people, whether or not this requires more carbon.
For example, in 2022, China accounted for 66% of global EV sales (5.0 million out of 7.7 million), thanks to subsidies that China made available. China no doubt had many motives, but one of them would seem to be to stimulate the economy. Another motive would be to increase the total number of vehicles in operation. The majority (61%) of electricity generation in China in 2022 was provided by electricity coming from coal-fired power plants, based on information from the Energy Institute. I would expect that more Chinese vehicles manufactured and placed into operation plus more use of electricity from coal would lead to a greater quantity of carbon emissions, rather than a smaller quantity.
This is what the world of finance looks like… as BAU dies:
https://www.efinancialcareers.com/news/2023/08/bankers-running-out-of-money
The problem is that in many ways, this has been the worst kind of crisis. There have been very few large cap IPOs to bring in revenues. There have been very few M&A deals and therefore no need of M&A financing. And there has been very little in the way of recapitalization because few corporates are distressed. It was much easier after the financial crisis, when there were loads of rights issues. In the current market anyone with a levered balanced sheet fixed it in 2020 or 2021 when debt was incredibly cheap. Debt is now a lot more expensive. There is a lot less to be done and bankers’ rainy day funds are running dry.
Boo hoo… boo f789ing hoo.
Bankers are being laid off, and this is the problem that faces them:
I think that computer programmers, with the competition from China and India, have been facing a similar problem for years. It causes depression for those who have done well financially, but can no longer do well.
We have a team of top notch engineers in Belarus — USD35 per hour. Extremely competent… able to think out of the box… and they churn through coding tasks rapidly.
To hire similar here in NZ would cost 2.5x that.
It’s amazing how the auto industry thinks EV’s will be successful when pretty much everything about them is more expensive and does worse than gas powered vehicles. Ford’s CEO got a wakeup call driving an F-150 truck long distance just to gauge the experience of a customer. He wasn’t pleased with the results. He wasn’t wrong.

The honchos understand that this is a heap of sh it. They see the numbers – huge losses on these expensive contraptions… they understand that huge numbers of purchasers who get sucked in … will never buy an EV again once the costs start piling up…
But … they have no choice… just as Bud Lite had no choice… the edict comes from the PR Team … on the ultimate authority of the Elders.
The PR Team needs the MOREONS to believe there is a Great Transition underway.
Therefore thou must make and sell EVs. Or else… a few calls will be made – and the board will be replaced by folks who will do what they are told.
The city of Vienna (ca 2 mio inhabitants, a lot of forests and fertile land around (Marchfeld, former Danube wetlands) situated at the clean ans shipable river Danune) plans to forbid the consumation of meat and milk, to forbid individual transport and to restrict shopping clothes to three pieces a year and travelling to one trip <1500kms in three years – all until 2030, that is in six years!
I don't know why the MOREONS dont (want to) realize. Perhaps it is too much for them and they have given up? We hear from many friends that if they cannot go on with their current life they wouldn't want to live. I always say, what are you telling me? You have been complaining the last 10 years that your respectable career doesn't suit you much and you need a change! Then they laugh. But they invest to keep Granny's garden. And buy biological food. Who else if not the better off? That will help to build up a healthier soil and more resilient seeds and breeds.

Wikipedia is not for sale.
A personal appeal from Jimmy Wales
Please don’t scroll past this 1-minute read. This Tuesday, 22 August, I ask you to reflect on the number of times you visited Wikipedia in the past year, the value you got from it, and whether you’re able to give $3 back. If you can, please join the 2% of readers who give. If everyone reading this right now gave just $3, we’d hit our goal in a couple of hours. $3 is all I ask.
When I set up the Wikimedia Foundation as a nonprofit to host Wikipedia and 12 other free knowledge projects, it meant that we could preserve our core values: neutral, high quality information, not outrage and clickbait. Being a nonprofit means there is no danger that someone will buy Wikipedia and turn it into their personal playground.
If Wikipedia has given you $3 worth of knowledge this year, please donate now, it really matters. Thank you for your generosity!
We do need to support Wikimedia. Not all of it is correct. We heard about Hunter Biden paying consultants to anonymously clean up the Wikipedia article about him. And I am sure that he is not alone. But if the things are not controversial, there is often at least something useful said.
Jimmy Wales is a shill for the US government. The number of people that Wikipedia maligns as conspiracy theorists within the first line of their description is a joke. Don’t give any money to Wikipedia or Jimmy Wales.

Adrenaline is a very powerful vasoconstrictor.
During a stressful situation, adrenaline floods your body within minutes. Air passages dilate, redirecting more oxygen to the muscles to help you fight or run—blood vessels contract to send blood to the heart, lungs, and other major muscle groups.¹
Adrenaline is why moms can lift cars and destroy buildings when their kids need protecting – a show of ‘hysterical strength’ – according to some.

‘New variant’s mutation may affect disease severity, vaccine effectiveness’
The WHO is reportedly keeping a close watch on the BA.2.86 COVID-19 variant due to its mutational properties.
As the virus continues to evolve, the WHO reportedly emphasized the need for improved surveillance, sequencing, and reporting of COVID-19 cases infected with this variant.
While most mutations are said to have minimal impact on the virus’s properties, some may affect its transmissibility, disease severity, or the effectiveness of vaccines and other public health measures, the WHO said.

Unless one believes growth is not necessary — this demonstrates why we are doomed
According to a study published in Nature in 2020 the weight of all human made stuff has surpassed the weight of all things living on this planet for the first time in human history. If you are well read, probably this is no news to you. What is most interesting here, however, is that half of this material was mined, transported and turned into civilization fairly recently: it simply wasn’t there two decades ago. Now close your eyes and imagine half of your house, half of the roads between buildings, half of your washing machine, car and computer disappear. Welcome to the year 2000.
All this was due to exponential growth (a perfect fit for the past century), where we were doubling the amount of human made stuff every 20 years. In case you were wondering: this rate of growth is actually rather modest on an annual basis: equaling a mere 3.5% per annum. Despite these modest gains, the collective mass of materials covered with our fingerprints has gone from 3% of the world’s biomass in 1900 to surpassing 100% of it in a mere 120 years. This is the power of exponential growth. Yet, at least seemingly, we still occupy the same cities with roughly the same infrastructure.
Where did all this stuff go then?

No problem just stop the increase in the number of humans. Problem solved.
I suggest neutron bombs. Kills people leaves infrastructure. Hit the top 200 most populated cities in the world. With secondary kills problem solved.

That would be a bad tactic.
How about using strategic nukes, just to make sure.

The idea of mass killings is logically not connected to the idea of a reduced world population. It is a fetish on its own! In my eyes also the idea of being frutiful and multiply – which leads to a bad outcome for the children as much as for all – keeps a fetish aspect, because it has as a build-in consequence that they need to be killed in wars. I reject the idea that we give life and take life, the later is none of our business.
People in the Tyrolean valleys have told me, that their ancesters were very aware in the 19th century that too many children would mean hunger or that people have to go to Vienna and try to find an outcome there.
One-child-families, which do not necessarily mean, the state had to mandate or force it, leads to a decline to 60% of the population after 50 years, to 30% after 75 years, to 17% after 100 years and to 10% after 125 years. 10% equals the estimated world population of the Middle Ages before the use of coal but with heavily overusing the woods. It would take 150 years of one-child families to reach 5% or 0,4 bio, the world population usually estimated for times before fossile fuels.
These numbers are simple to estimate and they must have been known in the 1970s’ crisis, 50 years ago. A growing population usually leads to a growing economy as more work is added. It avoids additionally social problems that have to be moderated by politics or religion. I understand that! But there is no way to think the cataclism has not been implemented from the beginning. If your ancestors had invented the Haber-Bosch procedure on which 7,5 bio people live today, something in the mind may crack and lead to the idea that the one who gives life shall also take life. And if that is reseved to God or the Gods, these inventors must be the later.
The idea of a mass killing is deeply rooted in our culture and I think it is wrong. On the pro-side is that all these people had a chance to live, which never has been possible without fossiles.
There is also the idea, that with lesser ressources they have to be administered centrally by a Tyrannis. Period. No further arguentation. Look for it, it is found in publications from years ago. Why should a group that managed to survive ice-age not find acceptable solutions to adapt to carrying capacity? Why not implement a Dictatorship – which means in the classical meaning the dictator must be killed after 6 months if he didn’t solve the problem?
This narrowing of the focus is in my eyes a “religious” thing and testing our true beliefs and morals. I don’t see even hypothetical alternatives being discussed as one should expect. This doesn’t seem to me coincidental. That’s why I think, Fast Eddy may not be so far from the truth.
Bossche suggested two outcomes – 1. that a deadly mutation would arrive as it did with Marek’s… 2. that it might not even require a deadly new mutation to kill the Vaxxers… because they have VAIDS.
He leaves out a 3rd option — that a lab-made virus will be released — that is specifically designed to take advantage of the Vaxxers VAIDS damaged immune systems…
GVB still does not acknowledge that this has all been intentional from day 1… so he is most definitely not going to consider that the folks running this show would purposely commit such an act.
He would lose his mind if he was to consider this 3rd option
I imagine that all these possibilities have been fleshed out in simulations. I think the most worrisome factor now is that any group with a lab can through serial passage gain of function work create a deadlier form of the virus that exploits the antibody response created from the vaccines. Stay tuned.
I feel quite excited… If I fathered a child right now I’d name it Eris…
Surely they must have something up their sleeve now — China and the CRE are not healing by themselves… the Elders will know if it is possible to kick those cans…
If they have determine that is not possible … they are right this minute counting down towards the release of the cannisters.

It would be irresponsible of them to delay and miss the window
Maybe they are also right now gathered and getting in some last minute pedo action … before detonation?
There seems to be a growing consensus among commentators that UKR is approaching manpower exhaustion and that Russia will go on the advance once the UKR capacity for largescale battlefield resistance is attrited. That is basically the narrative that has prevailed from the start and its culmination seems perhaps near or there could be some twists.
> This week the Ukrainian army committed its last reserve brigade with western equipment to its counter-offensive. It will get ground up just like the forces it is replacing. The furthest the counter-offensive has gone in total was in the south of Orkiv where it progressed some 12 kilometer. It took more than 72 days, and many losses of men and material, to get that far. Tokmak, an important traffic center that Ukraine would like to take, is still 12 kilometer away. It is also protected by several well built defensive lines which the Ukrainian forces will be unable to cross.
On the second axis of the counter-offensive, south of Velyka Novosilka, the maximum progress is some 6 to 8 kilometer. Several small villages, now destroyed, were captured along the way. The number of lives lost during the fight is much bigger than the number of inhabitants those villages previously had.
The aim of the counter-offensive was to reach the Azov Sea or, if that was not possible, to go far enough to get all southern roads under artillery fire. The distance from the frontline to the sea as of June 5 was 100 kilometer. There are still 88 kilometer to go. But time is running out and all reserves have been committed.
Over the last week the Russian Defense Ministry reported on average 770 Ukrainian frontline casualties per day. The Ukrainian counter-offensive will likely culminate next week. It has reached is maximum potential and will now peter out.
That is the moment when the Russian army will go on the offensive. A sure sign of this was last night’s visit of President Putin to Rostov-on-Don from where the ‘special military operation’ is controlled. General Gerasimov, the leader of the Russian military, and others briefed Putin about their plans.
I have no idea where or how large the Russian offensive will be, but two days ago the Belorussian President Lukashenko gave a hint of its potential size: ….

Germany has fallen to green dogma
Now even discount supermarkets are hiking their prices at the behest of environmentalists.
I have long been convinced that one of the reasons why fascism never had a chance in Britain was due to the predispositions of her people. If nothing else, the theatrics employed by Hitler and Mussolini just seemed too weird and downright ridiculous to the British.
PG Wodehouse captured this perfectly in an exchange between a British wannabe fascist, Roderick Spode, and Bertie Wooster: ‘The trouble with you, Spode, is that just because you have succeeded in inducing a handful of half-wits to disfigure the London scene by going about in black shorts, you think you’re someone.’
I don’t intend to liken fascists to environmentalists, but Brits have at least expressed a similar, visceral distaste for the theatrics of eco-activist groups in recent years. Marching in black ‘footer bags’, pretending to be the voice of the people, is just as ridiculous as holding up traffic in an orange ‘Just Stop Oil’ t-shirt.
The environmental movement becomes more absurd by the day. The Guardian’s George Monbiot, for instance, has just called for the reintroduction of deadly wolves and lynxes to Great Britain, in order to manage a surging deer population. One can only hope that this call to action will have about as much success as his campaign against meat, milk and eggs, which Monbiot is convinced are an ‘indulgence’ humanity can no longer afford.
Sadly, the same is not true in Germany, where the elites are all too keen to humour even the most extreme climate fanatics. German discount supermarket Penny recently decided to increase the prices of its meat and dairy products, to include the environmental costs incurred in their production, as part of a week-long experiment. The price of frankfurter sausages rose from €3.19 to €6.01. The price of mozzarella rose by 74 per cent, to €1.55. And the price of fruit yoghurt rose by 31 per cent, from €1.19 to €1.56.
While the usual suspects in the establishment are clearly excited by this idea that in the future even shopping at a discount shop might become the preserve of the rich, average Germans are less pleased. Germany’s public broadcaster, WDR, asked Penny customers what they thought about the price-hike experiment. Due to a lack of enthusiasm from shoppers, WDR decided to have one of its employees cosplay as a happy shopper. That taxpayer-funded broadcasters now have to resort to outright fraud in order to drum up support for idiotic climate action tells you everything you need to know.
Greens often cite polls showing public support for Net Zero and other punishing environmental policies. But these polls are all tainted by social-desirability bias. Plus, when voters are asked if they are willing to foot the bill for the ‘green transition’, they invariably say no – and with good reason. Why should their lives have to get worse in order to ‘save the planet’?
Germany’s fake-shopper scandal raises an important question. Is it really the job of public institutions to shame and blackmail the population into accepting deteriorating living standards? It is easy for a Bank of England economist to say that we have to accept that we are getting poorer, because he isn’t really part of that ‘we’. https://www.bbc.com/news/business-65308769 Similarly, doubling the price of groceries in the name of the climate might be an irritation for the rich, but for ordinary people it poses an existential threat.
It seems to have dawned on some members of the elite that most people will not volunteer for a reduction in their living standards. And so the state is intent on forcing them. German weekly newspaper Die Zeit, which is considered the most sophisticated German-language publication, recently asked its readers to submit suggestions about what precisely the government should ban in order to avoid ‘climate sins’.
It is hard to think of a better symbol of a detached elite, saturated with contempt for the average person. Here we had a newspaper, which caters to those highest up on the socioeconomic ladder, running a competition to work out how best to take away the few remaining pleasures the middle and working classes enjoy. Among the most popular suggestions were bans, penalties and punitive taxes on everything from flying to driving to eating meat. Of course, these suggestions came from people who could easily afford sky-high food prices or airfares.
One of the most vocal proponents of a ban on domestic flights is German climatologist Hans Joachim Schellnhuber – often nicknamed ‘the climate pope’. He was recently caught red-handed on a short-haul flight from Berlin to Munich. He was giving a presentation to the association of German carpenters, a task apparently so important that neither travel by train nor a presentation by Zoom were acceptable alternatives. Just like the Renaissance popes of old, Schellnhuber prefers to preach water while he himself sticks to wine.
Examples of such brazen eco-hypocrisy abound. New Zealand climate activist Izzy Cook was widely mocked recently for complaining about people flying to Fiji, after having flown to Fiji herself a few months earlier. Similarly, two German activists missed their court date for blocking traffic because they were on holiday in Bali. And who could forget Greta Thunberg’s botched yacht stunt in 2019, where she insisted on sailing from Europe to New York to attend UN climate talks, only for it to be revealed that an entire crew was flown into New York in order to sail the yacht back to Europe.
At least the British people still seem capable of spotting a grift when they see one. I have no such hope for Germany.
Irony of supply chains.
Zarya was apparently the chief supplier of TNT for the Pentagon, the US no longer produces TNT. So, Zarya is located in a part of Ukraine which voted to become part of Russia.
You can’t make this stuff up, we can apparently machine some 11K shells per month, but nothing to make them go bang.
All our shells have gone “bang” and per our leader we don’t have any more.
Film at eleven
Dennis L.
Addendum:
Poland apparently supplies US with some TNT. So Poland ships TNT to the US, the US ships it back to Poland in shells, which ships the shells to Ukraine. That is an interesting supply chain; not hand to mouth but into the breech.
WP article per Alex Christoforou
If Ukraine gets F16s it will need massive numbers of air to air missiles and air to ground missiles and bombs to drop. How many are contracted for now? One million of each per year for five years????
Meanwhile, what about US civilian ammo?
I said screw it and just bought 2K rounds of PMC 45ACP 230 gr FMJ now that my daughter wants to move up from 9mm to 45ACP. (Glock 17 to Glock 21) Atta girl!
A man in religious garb tells us that ammunition costs have doubled or tripled.
My thought: Maybe that is for the best. This way, price may somewhat put a lid on the amount of ammunition people buy. If there is truly a shortage of TNT, that would help, too.
It can also be an example of unintended consequences. It’s called hoarding, and I am guilty as charged. The last thing I need is another gun, or more ammo. Perhaps part of my rationalization is that the currency won’t be worth much in the future, so might as well buy something with it that I can store and may hold value, like solar panels or charge controllers. On a different track, it is how I can rationalize paying my my daughter’s outrageous rip off college tuition. It’s not just because I love my daughter and I want to keep her out of debt at all costs, but that the dollar may not buy much in the future anyway. Spend it now while it will at least allow her to earn her STEM degree.
If civilian ammo price increases were not to be perceived at risk of rising, then people would not be so anxious to buy ammo at any price. Sales would actually decline, as did ammo and gun purchases during Trump’s presidency. In contrast, Obama, and now Biden, by threatening to outlaw guns, and allowing Antifa and BLM rioting in 2020, have turned out to be the best salesmen for the gun industry in peacetime history. As this preacher poster said, the gun industry is able to keep prices high…because people are willing to pay. People must be diverting money from other discretionary purchases, or possibly this is an example of evolution of a new inelastic supply and demand now perceived as becoming a “necessity” such as with food.
I’d rather my neighbours, who simply wish to keep their homes safe, be the ones loading up on ammo than it all going to the government / military / police. Who knows if (when) they’ll decide to use it and why….
Cheers,

A new Ukrainian push can be tracked in the Zaporozhje direction here.

“China Suspends Report on Youth Unemployment, Which Was at a Record High
The Chinese government said it would no longer release monthly data about unemployment in young people, which had risen each month this year and reached 21.3 percent.
But the economy has been slow to respond. Private companies in China, which contribute 80 percent of the country’s urban employment, were hit especially hard by the lockdowns and mass testing that marked “zero Covid.”
Xi Jinping, the country’s top leader, has called for young people to go to remote areas to find work — to “eat bitterness,” a Chinese expression that refers to enduring hardship.
But China’s educated young people today want jobs with good working environments in fields such as the internet, education, culture and entertainment. Those jobs, for the most part, are not located in the countryside.”
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/15/business/china-youth-unemployment.html
These figures are based on official numbers; some sources say that youth unemployment in China is at alarming levels.
“Chinese professor says youth jobless rate might have hit 46.5%”
https://www.reuters.com/article/china-economy-youth-unemployment-idUSKBN2Z00HN
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIvoQVsC7cs
The incipient decline of China may be unfolding. For years, its steroid-fueled growth hinted at an impending saturation. Ironically, the vast resources channeled into high-tech and education now seem counterproductive. Despite its strategic forays, the expected dividends remain elusive.If this entire conflagration fully engulfs the financial sector, we may witness even more significant challenges arising.
The mythology of “get an education and at the end you can get a job that pays well” has saturated the Ukraine, just as it has the US.
In the US, we have gotten the student debt problem out of it, and a whole lot of young people working at jobs that don’t really require the advanced degrees that they received. Or parents have taken out loans for a child’s education, but the benefits are not there.
In China, I am not sure what is going on. But, with the huge expenditure, young people expect to get jobs that go with taking time and probably making actual expenditure for education. Nearly all of the jobs, though, are low paying.
It is the same mythology that has been advanced everywhere.
This might partly summarize the situation:
The revolution is not about making the children of the middle class rich. They are the next generation in the struggle of the working class. They must struggle with the workers. They must remember the struggles of the party in the mountains before coming to power.
But how do you make them do that?
Natural selection…
Send them to the country side to farm with the workers. I worked with a guy at IBM US, a nice guy, who was the only one in the village who could read. He had to read the pronouncements from Beijing.
They’d do it at the point of a gun (in an age of abundance like Mao’s), but I don’t know how it would work now.
The party would put a black mark in there internal passport that will follow them for generations to come, if they do not comply.
You can’t solve a problem using the same mindset which started it.
Death to farmers
Net-Zero Goals Won’t Slow Down Oil Exploration
By Irina Slav – Aug 19, 2023, 6:00 PM CDT
….Indeed, one campaign group dubbed Oil Change International slammed the Inflation Reduction Act as being “one of the biggest handouts to the fossil fuel industry in US history.
According to that group, “With tens of billions dollars in giveaways for the oil and gas industry, provisions expanding fossil fuel leasing, and incentives for dangerous and unproven technologies designed to keep the fossil fuel industry in business like Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS), hydrogen, and Direct Air Capture (DAC), this law will not accomplish what we need to have a livable future.”
Indeed, the IRA has money allocated for carbon capture and storage tech. It also has a lot more money to be spent on wind, solar, EVs, and charging infrastructure, and so does the EU. The West is definitely going all in on the energy transition, despite all the challenges that have emerged recently.
…..Indeed, a fact not often voiced by the transition advocates, both in political circles and outside them, is the fact that the transition away from hydrocarbons depends strongly on those same hydrocarbons.
The raw materials for the transition equipment are produced using machines that run on hydrocarbon fuels. The equipment itself is produced using energy from hydrocarbons-think China, solar panels, and coal powered furnaces-and there are hydrocarbon ingredients in that equipment-think wind turbine blades and epoxy resins.
In other words, spending on new oil and gas exploration is rebounding because, first, demand trends have demonstrated quite clearly that the world’s thirst for hydrocarbons is not falling but rising and, second, because the energy transition away from hydrocarbons depends on them.

Expert Auto Mechanic Explains Why Pricey EV Tires Wear Out Faster
Published: 20 Aug 2023, 17:40 UTC • By: Florin Amariei Florin Amariei profile photo
Owning an EV as a commuting appliance can be rewarding if charging at home during off-peak hours is possible. It can significantly reduce the costs of “filling up” the battery with electrons. DC fast charging these days can be as expensive as getting gas. But another aspect that warrants your consideration is the EV’s tires.
Kilmer argues that all-electric cars are heavier than their gas-powered counterparts and emphasizes that tires are the same size. Thus, if you’re an EV owner, your car needs rubber rings with a higher weight rating, a characteristic that makes them wear out faster.
Another argument the mechanic presents is that EVs are zippy, and owners are willing to explore their capabilities. Frequent acceleration does impact tire life. Electric motors can deliver their torque almost instantaneously, making them feel a lot faster than some gas-powered equivalents.
doubles down and says that the Model 3 needs costly tires, usually required for luxury or high-end sports cars.
Looking at a popular online tire shop’s offer for a set of Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 fitting a Tesla Model 3 Long Range (235/45/R18) with a 98Y load index and speed rating and XL load range, we can see a total price of $972 with installation included. After discounts and taxes, the final cost is $1,069, as you can see in the photo gallery.
However, the auto mechanic admits that EVs require pricier tires because they are tailor-made to suit zero-tailpipe emission propulsion systems. They must have low rolling resistance and be more silent without trading other safety requirements for these qualities. For example, tires must be able to support a heavier load while retaining all the other vital characteristics.
We would also add that tires tend to wear out faster because of the compound and tread material. However, nowadays some newer tires may have more than 30% higher wear resistance compared to most rubber rings found on internal combustion engine-powered vehicles. As EVs become better, so do the tires.
How many barrels of OIL does it take to make a set of tires for a car? If you need that answer watch Michael Ruppert’s documentary title Collapse…
If EVs wear out tires faster, I would expect that they also wear out roads faster.
EV trucks will have particular problems, in this respect. The heavy vehicles will wear out roads faster. The trucks will likely be able to carry less of regular cargo, so that there will need to be more of them (especially net of the time needed to keep recharging them).
I get the impression that the high temperatures, if they continue to be confirmed, will also cause a lot of wear, both on tires and on all kinds of parts. Also in other mechanisms and devices.
Good point!
It used to be said in the UK that road wear was proportional to the 4th. power of the axle weight. This made HGVs particularly damaging to our roads.
EV owners prefer not to know about this reality .. but there are consequences… when they get the bill for a new set of tyres after 10,000 miles

”Moderna and other COVID-19 vaccine makers Novavax (NVAX.O), Pfizer (PFE.N) and German partner BioNTech SE (22UAy.DE) have created versions of their shots aimed at the XBB.1.5 subvariant.

National investment into a jab that according to Pfizer does not prevent transmission and infection should not not have any macroeconomic benefits – except perhaps arguing that people now have more in their consumer basket.
But it pays huge sums for advertising pressure that the opposition cannot afford. And probably also for overheating issues.

While I have harbored considerable skepticism regarding the entire vaccine discourse, my reservations primarily pertain to the Covid-19 vaccine. It’s a scientifically grounded fact that any medical intervention, including vaccines, might present with side effects, some of which can be serious. However, one cannot help but ponder: would it be feasible for a vaccine to culminate in the demise of nearly 8 billion souls? This proposition is audacious, and I remain in a state of ambivalence regarding its veracity.
It is worth contemplating, especially in the light of our current socio-economic milieu, that with the looming potential collapse of global economic infrastructures, the elites might resort to obfuscation, using various subterfuges to perpetuate their dominion, thereby averting pandemonium. It’s conceivable that this might involve the weaving of elaborate narratives or even the construction of alternative realities, expressly tailored for mass consumption. Is it plausible to suggest that the Covid-19 pandemic, and its subsequent portrayal, might be intricately entwined within this Machiavellian tapestry? One might argue it’s within the realm of possibility.
Furthermore, we cannot ignore that as our economic foundation teeters on the brink, systemic ramifications including escalating poverty, surging unemployment, and deteriorating financial conditions might inadvertently serve as fertile grounds for the propagation and intensification of infectious maladies
“However, one cannot help but ponder: would it be feasible for a vaccine to culminate in the demise of nearly 8 billion souls?”
If you get that result, “vaccine” is the wrong word to use. You’re looking for “poison”.
no it couldnt
but dont let me ruin a good conspiracy
Binary Poison – two releases… phase 1. is used to convince billions to inject the rat juice… 2. the trigger
Concurrent infections of cells by two pathogens can enable a reactivation of the first pathogen and the second pathogen’s accelerated T-cell exhaustion
https://hiddencomplexity.substack.com/p/the-intricacies-of-t-cell-exhaustion
IgG4, on the other hand, responds to allergens. If you get stung by a bee for example, your body might react with IgG3 or other antibodies and cause you to have an allergic reaction. To avoid this, your body learns how to recognise relatively insignificant foreign objects by switching to IgG4. Instead of increased inflammation to fight the foreign object, your immune system recognises that this is nothing major. Long term exposure, for example in bee keepers, produces this response. Immunotherapy also works this way by training your body with the foreign object you are allergic to until it is trained to produce an IgG4 response.
https://nakedemperor.substack.com/p/igg4-antibody-class-switch-good-news
I think this is an excellent comment.
I myself was pondering, would it be possible for an injection of a poison such as potassium cyanide or strychnine or hemlock to culminate in the demise of nearly 8 billion souls?
Outside of “Kill Box” conditions, such as on battlefields, in concentration camps, or other military-style enforcement situations, I found that proposition ridiculous, and 8 billion people would not willingly allow themselves to be injected with something that causes most of them to collapse and die within seconds or minutes of being injected.
So I pondered on… what about a slow-kill poison that acted over days, weeks, months or years, killing some, injuring others, and leaving yet others apparently unharmed? I found that proposition extremely plausible. Out of eight billion people, seven billion would willingly sign up for that if they were suitably motivated and/or incentivized through an adept PR plan. “Free donuts anyone?” “Want to get around more easily than the unvaccinated?” “Save grandma?” “Do your social duty!” Etc.
So, if it was going to be done, that’s the way it would be done.
The best solution would be a binary poison….lab-made
Offer free donuts and stuff and run huge ad campaigns to get as many MOREONS as possible to inject Rat Juice….
The Rat Juice totally f789s up their immune systems… VAIDS… making them susceptible to…
A second pathogen … that you release when you know BAU is about to die.
This is a fantastic solution because it gives them control over when the 8 billion die… to leave it to chance – as in a lethal mutation happening naturally … is way too risky…
Recall that even Bossche said – it might not take a lethal mutation… all it would take is a lab-designed pathogen that is designed to work with the initial Rat Juice… and not be recognized by the immune system
Does anyone else find it odd that multiple data points including those coming out of China + the CRE in the US (a 20 trillion dollar market)… are flashing red…. and the response is … the Eris Virus
Does anyone else find it odd that they’d name the virus after the goddess of chaos and strife?
Could this all be a gigantic coincidence?
Tim, I would be betting a coffee that they are disappointed with only 6% increase in mortality, which is now tapering off (no excess mortality in the whole of europe). Of course it is as you describe. It has been so for a long time, since autism became a thing, 40 years at least.
You mean a higher entity, or it’s brother stupidity, has rained on their parade? Love that thought!
Actually, only 5.5 out of 8 bn seem to have joined the queue. In Bulgaria, the psy-ops went so badly wrong that only 30% believed the authorities.
Good point!
Excellent Levent – you get it!
going along with the fantasy of ”the elites’ want to kill off us plebs so they can
a—keep a few of us as slaves (or something)
b—have the planet as their playground.
I’m afraid it doesnt work like that.
If we, (the great unwashed, die—they die too
I think eddie says that it is the end for us all including elites to save ROS from happening. I doubt that motive being plausible. Elites are not suicidal to that degree. Could be wrong though.
we have created a global economic system based on infinite growth.
which isn’t possible–even though we elect leaders who say it is.
the endgame is inevitable—it’s just the details we won’t know about until they happen
Norm,
The universe keeps on growing, we are part of that universe. Now, is there more than one universe?
Perhaps the Gods sit down occasionally and compare notes such as “Well, how is that experiment in your universe going?”
Big thinkers all, we read it as history.
Dennis L.
the universe keeps growing–agreed.
but we look up at it—and see no change in our lifetime
nor is there any change seen in a thousand lifetimes
its growth then is too slow for us to observe, from our point of view
dennis——–
we are stuck on planet earth
growth of the universe takes place on an entirely different timescale
ie—if we hung around for another 300m years until forests have had time to regrow and decay into oilfields, we might ”continue to grow”—but i find that unlikely
It’s a hell of a long list…
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assassinated_and_executed_heads_of_state_and_government
Note – all of the above had great power and protection — until they didn’t
This time is different though .. 8 billion angry starving predators… looking for folks to blame …
Once the global economy implodes… the Elders lose their power … nobody will help them.
Yes but killing everyone doesn’t help them. So more likely they are going for a maiming approach. Reduce population and disable a large portion. The likely outcome is to create faster collapses I would think.
Any significant cull collapses the global supply chains.
To stretch resources a significant cull is required.
A significant cull results in a deflationary death spiral.
This would be an interesting OFW article … it could put to rest the Depop Theory of the Rat Juice
Norm,
Yes, we are all part of the fabric of the universe. Despite mass murder in the millions, we are still here; that idea doesn’t seem to work, something does not want that any more than it wants us to perish.
They will think of something; indeed, it has already been thought of, we read the fabric as history not prophesy.
Dennis L.
That WE know it wouldn’t work does not mean THEY know. If you assume a conspiracy aiming at “reduction”, you don’t necessarily have to expect sensible people behind…

“Furthermore, we cannot ignore that as our economic foundation teeters on the brink, systemic ramifications including escalating poverty, surging unemployment, and deteriorating financial conditions might inadvertently serve as fertile grounds for the propagation and intensification of infectious maladie.”
OR
We are on the brink of unimagined wealth which is all around us and can be obtained, manufactured in a manner which results in virtually zero pollution of our spaceship earth. Further such wealth allows us to “spiff” up our spaceship and continue our journey through the universe at >500k mph. “What a ride in overdrive.”
Dennis L.
Think of COVID and the vaxxes as a medical Ponzi Scheme. The actual spike protein, the weapon, is not powerful enough on its own to do the job of depopulation. Just as in a Ponzi, a fictitious investment opportunity is not capable of producing any dividends , capital gains or profits on its own. “Profits ” come from the money of new gullible investors piling into the scheme.
The spike protein injections will not be sufficient on their own to overcome development of natural herd immunity or in the analogy of the Ponzi, a stable investment vehicle that produces wealth. To maintain the disease state, ever more new “injectees” are required to overcome natural herd immunity.
Thus, the COVID “pandemic” is not capable of sustaining itself without gaslighting the population into getting more injections, the financial equivalent of new investors.
But another sinister layer has been added to this basic medical Ponzi. Additional deleterious gene insertions, whether mRNA, modRNA, DNA, or outright toxins can be now added to the vaccine. Bottom line, we don’t know what the hell is in these “vaccines.” Some people like those Pfizer employees may have gotten plain saline whereas others may have gotten lethal kill shots.
But part of a Ponzi is deluding other future investors. In the same way, future vaxx recipients or injectees, need to be psychologically coerced into getting more and more injections to sustain the Ponzi. But unlike a Ponzi which depends on greed, these Vaxxes depend on fear.
But wait! The more injections one receives, the more susceptible one becomes to future sickness, probably through compromised immune function by design and intent, and the perceived need for even more injections to prevent more disease. A vicious feedback cycle, born of a Desmet like mass formation psychosis/hysteria gets established.
I think that fear is a greater force than greed.
But in the end, all financial Ponzies collapse. Will the same be said for the populations from this vaxdemic?
I think it depend on maintains a careful balance of many factors, such as variable short vs long term vaxx lethality, media disinformation, political/economic circumstances, etc.
nobody is trying to bump off humankind
Bumping off mankind goes by different names–bioweapons; involuntary birth control; search for profits from drugs (including vaccines) regardless of how high the rate of adverse outcomes and how limited the benefit; overuse of antibiotics and “vaccines,” encouraging microbes to mutate in many directions (rendering the antibiotics and vaccines useless, while enabling more growth of microbes).
Putting profits first is a major motive. Also, “advancement of science” without thinking of what might go wrong.
When we examine the intricate fabric of nature, we observe that competition takes on various forms, sometimes even leading to the elimination of competitors. Such confrontations, though they might appear malevolent through a human lens, play a pivotal role in maintaining the balance and dynamics of ecosystems. The key to survival isn’t limited to growth or reproduction; it also crucially involves the ability to outcompete or neutralize threats.
In the microscopic domain, the way some bacteria produce antibiotics exemplifies this aspect of competition. These microorganisms, in their pursuit of resources, produce specific compounds not just for defense, but to actively inhibit rival bacteria, asserting their dominance in a densely populated microbial environment. This reminds us that in the vast tableau of life, survival tactics can go beyond simple growth, embracing strategies of active competition and defense. And perhaps, in some nuanced ways, we might find echoes of these dynamics in human interactions and societies.
For example:
https://kids.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/frym.2020.558681#:~:text=Bacteria%2C%20a%20type%20of%20microbe,antibiotic%20resistance%20or%20food%20spoilage.
In invoking the term ‘balance’ within the context of nature, I am not alluding to a static or unchanging equilibrium. Rather, I reference the intricate, dynamic interplay of forces and entities that, despite constant flux, tends towards a state of relative stability or harmony. Nature’s ‘balance’ embodies its resilience and adaptability, where ecosystems adjust, evolve, and sometimes even transform in response to various pressures. It is this ever-shifting equilibrium, a dance of change and adaptation, that I term ‘balance’. Instead of ‘balance’, I could also have employed the term ‘dynamic equilibrium’, which conveys the idea of a system in which opposing changes or actions occur at equal rates, maintaining a state of relative constancy amidst change.

I think you are probably right. I hadn’t thought of the connection to a Ponzi Scheme. Thanks!
Considering the significant profit-driven motives of major pharmaceutical companies, your arguments resonate with considerable merit. The relentless pursuit of profit—exploiting individuals, amplifying ailments for continual revenue, and harnessing illness as an avenue for gain—could very well be plausible strategies, potentially already in play. However, as we seemingly approach the denouement of this intricate narrative, my mind is sometimes drawn to more unconventional considerations. In an era marked by accelerating anomalies, these extraordinary events inevitably seep into various facets of our lives. The imminent cataclysm of our current civilization is an event unparalleled in millennia even in human history. Consequently, in the face of such unbounded avarice that might well transcend even our most audacious conjectures, I find myself inexorably drawn to the notion that there might be dimensions of profundity, yet unveiled, lurking surreptitiously in the penumbra.
Yet, it might be an overreach to assume that their ultimate intention was the annihilation of billions. At times, as Edgar Morin aptly posits, the ‘ecology of action’ takes precedence, where outcomes become so unpredictable they might stray far from initial objectives. Should these vaccines indeed cause detriment and spawn a myriad of side effects, then why, when juxtaposed with debilitating elements like poverty, economic downfall, and unemployment, shouldn’t they serve as the final impetus, exacerbating the diseases even further.
Pharmaceutical companies are essentially well paid hitmen “employed” by the Globalists, who obviously don’t want to kill off humanity, they merely want decrease the numbers, yet maintain a sufficient number to do the productive tasks, as George Carlin said in his oratory for the ages (The Club) “just smart enough to pull the levers to operate the machinery.” In other words they want to lower the living standards of Western European countries/US. To do his requires a multi angled approach.
Destroy the family unit, education, and the social fabric of our countries. Use of CBDC if it can be done to centrally control the monetary system, vaxx passports and national ID cards, import low IQ illegal immigrants, abandon rule of law, disrupt the integrity of elections, drift from a Constitutional Republic to communist central control, gain control of the media, and scare people through hoaxes of green energy, climate change disaster, and COVID. Pollute the minds of people with pornography, glamorize Rap music, sexual deviancy etc. The politicians are just the errand boys. Even professional hit men have to stalk and kill their designated targets. Politicians just collect a paycheck and pension.
In other words, the people whose health is already in bad shape will be disproportionately affected.
Indeed, that may often be the case, but I’m not convinced it’s always so. Once a pandemic takes hold, its behavior can be quite unpredictable. Take, for example, the 1918 influenza pandemic, which notably affected young individuals as well. However, it is generally expected that those with weaker and more compromised immune systems will bear the brunt of such outbreaks.
Within the dance of cause and effect, Edgar Morin’s “ecology of action” sheds light on how our best-laid plans can lead to unexpected results.
Imagine setting up a nuclear power plant, dreaming of huge profits and vast energy outputs. But under such dreams, there’s a risk of a disaster that could wipe out potential profits and cause massive destruction. Similarly, think of Hitler’s goal, possibly to make Germany a world leader. However, the result was a heartbreaking disaster and loss of countless lives. These examples highlight the unpredictable nature of actions and outcomes, a core idea in Morin’s “ecology of action.
Indeed, “Sometimes, unintended consequences can overshadow the original intent.”
RE: “Desmet like mass formation psychosis/hysteria”
The official framing of the mass formation (or mass psychosis) “phenomenon” is misleading and wrong in terms of what the whole true reality is. The false hope-addicted psychologists and their acolytes want you to believe this is “just some temporary occasional” madness by the masses when it is but a spike of a CHRONIC madness going on for aeons with “civilized” people: http://www.CovidTruthBeKnown.com (or https://www.rolf-hefti.com/covid-19-coronavirus.html)
One of these mainstream psychologists who have been spreading this whitewashed reality, Dr. Desmet, also fails to see that the PLANNED Covid Psyop is a TOTALLY deliberate ploy because he doesn’t think (after more than 1 year, 2 years, even 3 years, into this total PLANNED scam!) it’s ALL intentionally sinister as he stated in a prior podcast (this makes him witting or unwitting controlled opposition).
In the May of 2022 podcast with James Corbett he stated that “some people tend to overestimate the degree of planning and intentions” (behind the COUNTLESS, VERIFIABLE, FULLY INTENTIONAL, FULLY PLANNED atrocities by the ruling tribe of psychopaths over the last century alone) and see all of it as being PLANNED which Desmet called “an extreme position” … Sound logical thinking is “extreme” and therefore false and sick in his demented delusional view!
This all means Desmet is ALSO a member of the masses of lunatics, an ACTIVE CARD-CARRYING MEMBER of mass formation!

who “stinks” more at being way too early on their predictions of doom?
CHS or JHK?
if anything, it’s sorta a tie, though CHS has a way of being quite vague about timing, whereas JHK is often more specific about what’s coming in the short term and then doesn’t arrive.
(hi James, hi Charles! 😉 )
the CHS graphs also are nice shiny colorful things with random downward plunges in the “future”.
but don’t let his past failures make anyone not pay attention this time!
his analyses are interesting at the least, though timing is nearly impossible, as it is for most everyone.
JHK penned The Long Emergency… not The Short Emergency… not The Immediate Emergency… not The Tomorrow Emergency…
The Long Emergency…
It’s a process… it’s happening in phases… in 2001 energy prices lifted off… rates were reduced and stimulus was added… then we got the GFC and a renewed flood of stimulus… then when that stopped working we got Covid and a tidal wave of stimulus…
And now we hyperinflation will be the result if they again reduce rates and throw money at this …
It would appear — unless someone has other ideas on how to refloat all the boats… that we are in the final phase.
Eris — the goddess of chaos and strife.

In the Turkish language, there’s an evocative idiom: ‘The ox is dead; the partnership is over.’ While English may not have a direct equivalent for this expression, it can offer insight into the nuanced Sino-American dynamics and what might be expected in the near future. Another saying to ponder upon is: as resources diminish, competition escalates. Yet, given that China and the United States extensively cooperate on numerous fronts, abruptly severing such deeply-rooted ties could be a complex endeavor. It’s likely we’ll observe a tension fluctuating between intense rivalry and collaboration. Forecasting the outcome of such a dynamic is no straightforward task.
Notice how all countries are cooperating with respect to injecting as many of their citizens as possible – with the Rat Juice.

Ford CEO Admits ‘Reality Check’ When He Took Electric F-150 Truck on Road Trip
“In California, Mr. Farley said he encountered slow charging times. When using a low-speed charger, it took about 40 minutes for it to charge the electric F-150’s battery to 40 percent.
It comes after a Canadian man told news outlets that he was forced to abandon his Ford electric truck after suffering charging failures during a road trip.
‘It was in [the] shop for 6 months. I can’t take it to my lake cabin. I cannot take it for off-grid camping. I cannot take for even a road trip…I can only drive in city—biggest scam of modern times.’”
Full Article: https://bit.ly/3seSsQN
The little details that no one tells you about driving an EV truck in a part of the world that doesn’t have many charging stations, and probably never will.
Recall the cost to the F150 owner of upgrading his power supply to be able to charge his Idiot-mobile …
But Bala was quickly hit with the reality of owning and operating an EV soon after the purchase. The vehicle compelled him to install two chargers – one at work and one at home – for $10,000. To accommodate the charger, he had to upgrade his home’s electric panel for $6,000.
In all, Bala spent more than $130,000 – plus tax.
It’s ok to believe we’ve been to the moon — doesn’t cost you anything … doesn’t kill you.
But there are delusions that come with a price…. the Rat Juice Delusion can maim or kill you … the EV Delusion will result in a massive hole in your pocket…
Imagine getting in a minor accident with your shiny new Tesla.. and damaging the battery pack — and getting crushed with a bill for a new battery costing tens of thousands of dollars. I wonder what happens to your insurance premiums if that happens.

Run It Cold: Why Xi Jinping Is Letting China’s Economy Flail
China is steering clear of big stimulus even in the face of deflation risks.
Xi Jinping’s quest to rewrite the playbook that drove China’s economic miracle for a generation is facing its sternest test yet.
The $18 trillion economy is decelerating, consumers are downbeat, exports are struggling, prices are falling and more than one in five young people are out of work. Country Garden Holdings Co., with 3,000 pending property projects up and down the country, is on the cusp of default and protestors have gathered at Zhongzhi Enterprise Group Co., one of the biggest shadow banks, demanding their money as payments are halted.

Deflation is kind of my guess, but it is a guess no more. Guess is a liquidity crisis and stuff is worth much less than notational value as it generates so little real income.
A guess no more.
Dennis L.
deflation might be avoided by inssane money printing.
capital that generates too little real income might be impossible to avoid.
“deflation might be avoided by inssane money printing.”
History has many examples of it turning hyperinflation in very short order.
CTG … the voice of reason … and logic
“Contrary to popular opinion, excessively high deficit spending and exorbitant government debt levels are not the primary cause of a hyperinflation. In most cases they have been the result of other exogenous events such as ceding of monetary sovereignty, war, rampant corruption or regime change. It is these exogenous events that result in the public’s rejection of the currency, a collapse in the tax system and the government response of printing more money to fill in the confidence void. Ultimately the confidence void cannot be filled and the currency is fully rejected by the public in the form of hyperinflation. In my treatise on the monetary system I discuss the importance of this unspoken agreement between the private sector and public sector.”
“Inflation can and does occur in a perfectly healthy economy. In fact, since 1913 when the Fed
was founded inflation in the USA has consistently risen at 3.5% per year on average.3 One might
assume that this means the country has experienced some great injustice, but the truth is that the
1900’s were characterized by the greatest economic expansion and wealth creation the world has
ever seen. Despite the common citation that “the $USD has lost 9x% of its value” Americans
experienced an unprecedented period of prosperity during this inflation. In fact, the prosperity
became so gross in the 1990’s that Americans felt entitled to second homes, second cars, and
just about every other luxury good known to man. What has not occurred is hyperinflation, which
is a very different animal than inflation.”

Dear Father, help us to lead them to You. Lord, many of us are so weary, so tired of the fight we’re in. Help us to be strong. Help us resist the tyranny that is once again raising its fist to strike us and beat us down. We pray that You will soon show YOUR mighty hand on the earthly playing field so that victory could only and solely be give to You. Encourage us, Lord, to stay in this battle for the very souls of humanity and for Your creation. We pray for a great revival that will praise Your holy name. In Jesus’ name, we pray for this or something better. Amen.

Hail Satan… for he will beat his wings… and yee shall perish ….
Before the prayer you quote, Dr. Tenpenny says:
I would agree. The Bible verses are appropriate for our time, too.
I like the part about calling good evil… this ties in nicely with UEP …
The folks across the SS network insist the Rat Juice is evil… the injuries and deaths are monstrous…
Try as I might almost nobody is willing to accept that this great ‘evil’ is actually good
What did Cusack say in Utopia … how much evil do you have to do to do good
What they are doing may appear to be evil … but it is the kindest thing… the Elders… have ever done.
Remember – these are men whose play book is The Prince… they do not let emotions influence their decisions… they killed 500k children in Iraq.
They could simply drop Super Fent now and leave 8B to ROF…. but they are taking pity on the barnyard animals … they are exterminating us and greatly reducing the suffering …
This is a an epic act of kindness from our masters… truly epic… can we have a round of applause for The Elders
My guess is much/all of the Bible was humans interpreting the fabric of the universe with a bit of help. Ideas/thoughts given as appropriate and yet allegorical so as the withstand the test of time.

I agree. And other religions have their religious documents, trying to do the same thing.
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
Excellent… as the darkness closes in … the only option that remains … is prayer…
We could do with some more doomie poems as well similar to The Second Coming…
Surely everyone can feel it now … how can one not sense the utter desperation of the Elders and their minions …
They will do what is necessary as they prepare to launch the cannisters…

“Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler,
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust”
Am I the only one thinking Chickens? It would explain so much.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Never fear… The Messiah is here… HE is safe.
Tim,
I was wondering if that one would come up, my neighborhood was not very nice, we ended it, “I will fear no evil for I am the meanest SOB in this valley.”

I’ll chip in with some lines from a charming little copy of the Offices of the Virgin Mary, Venice, 1740, which is one of my favourite books, picked up for a song and beautifully restored by yours truly:
‘May all the holy virgins pray for us!
And all the Saints of God!
From all evil, deliver us, O Lord!
From SUDDEN AND UNFORESEEN DEATH, deliver us, O Lord!
And from the PLOTS OF SATAN, deliver us!’
I think that covers all bases? Or should we add:
From ‘Eris’, the totally-fake-novel-super-infectious variant, deliver us!’? I suggest it’s covered by ‘plots of Satan’……
Thanks!
you forgot—-
deliver us from OFW conspiracies, plots and hoaxes
Eris… great name for a feature dancer
So its ERIS this time….ERIS backwards is SIRE. I wonder if they are having a cruel joke….siring all the illness and death this go around.
For those who don’t know, Eris caused the Trojan War.
The Golden Apple of Discord was created by Eris, the Goddess of Discord. Zeus had thrown a wedding on Mount Olympus for Thetis the sea nymph and mortal Peleus. After Eris found out that she was not invited, she crashed the wedding and threw the apple inscribed with the word “kallisti” or “for the fairest”. The goddesses all fought over the apple, but it came down to Hera, Aphrodite and Athena. They asked Zeus to decide who received the apple and he told them that Paris of Troy was to choose the fairest. Each of the goddesses offered him a gift for the apple. Hera offered him the chance to be the king of Asia and Europe. Athena offered him wisdom and to become the world’s greatest warrior. Aphrodite offered him the love of Helen of Sparta, who was married to King Menelaus. Paris of Troy gave the apple to Aphrodite. After Paris kidnapped her, Aphrodite kept her promise and gave him the love of Helen of Sparta. King Menelaus and Helen’s former suitors refused to rest until she was found. All due to Golden Apple of Discord, the Trojan War had begun.
Hmmm… Trojan War… Trojan Horse….

I was told yesterday that Florida hospitals have already started taking forehead temperatures again – during summer and in a middle of a massive heatwave. How accurate is THAT? It’s only a sign of obedience by workers and compliance by visitors.
And another sign of control.
But they’re starting to turn the crank again: A new, “deadly” covid variant, BA.2.86 is emerging in the UK and now has been (gasp, shudder) identified in Michigan. The media Corp has hopped to attention and the spin has begun.
Look at this:
https://drtenpenny.substack.com/p/warning-here-we-go-again
I am trembling with excitement EEEE AWWWWWW
I watched a recent video of Nate Haggins in which he interviewed Doomberg and I was struck by the idea that liberal ideology is saying climate change is code for we need to get rid of a large amount of the population. This does seem to be playing out albeit slower than any of us thought. The next chapter great depression followed by populism followed by war. And in those scenarios you can do anything you want and most people will agree to it as we saw in the 2008 recession, 9/11, and covid. I still can’t figure out the argument that higher oil will destroy the world….people will still pay for it they will just have a lot less of other things and become more efficient in their use of energy. Perhaps is there is less energy people might look around at people like Klum and bring out the pitch forks. So in order to combat that we need massive depression followed by war. Who will be the scapegoat this time…..? Of course we have built an infrastructure based on cheap oil.
” liberal ideology is saying climate change is code for we need to get rid of a large amount of the population.”
Or maybe climate change is code for “save fossil fuels for economies that can use them more efficiently.” Africa and India use far less fossil fuels than we do (per capita). They don’t need to heat or cool their homes.
One thought: If the climate gets warmer, perhaps it would allow economies to run on less fossil fuel energy.
Saving a finite resource for some later, or some other, use doesn’t avoid its being a finite resource. The only sensible rationing would be to use it for those activities that will take longer to wean us off of.
I’m not sure how a warmer world would reduce fossil fuel use. It might to the opposite. And the constant quest for economic growth would certainly not reduce use.
Mike,
Yes, finite resources must be invested to both make/find more and also reduce pollution on spaceship earth.

Or it may be allocating it for Starship and manufacturing in space/moon. A chicken in every pot.
A guess, the Mars story is a narrative to maintain interest, similar to going to the moon to keep the space program going.
There is enough, there is more than humans can ever use, but it will be close and bumpy. What’s new?
Dennis L.
“to run on less fossil fuel energy.”
Possible, I suppose. But it would depend on the ratio of heating energy cost vs cooling energy cost.
I see “B” The honest sorcerer has another good article out today
https://thehonestsorcerer.medium.com/exponential-growth-forever-and-beyond-3dbc2147eb42
I agree. It is a very good article. It explains both why exponential growth cannot continue forever and why recycling can’t solve our problems.
>> I still can’t figure out the argument that higher oil will destroy the world
Fundamentally, at some point, people say “I don’t want to do all this extra work to buy a movie ticket, because the net benefit (labor vs enjoyment) becomes negative”. That same decision gradually moves from movie tickets to housing quality to food quality as available resources decline.
In physical terms:
The world is an energy system. When available energy declines, it takes more labor and resources to maintain flows of the remaining energy (running faster to stay in the same place). Therefore, there are fewer resources and labor left over to produce discretionary goods. So, output of discretionary goods declines and they become more expensive / less available, and that sector of production (and workers) gets decimated economically. That process continues, working its way into less discretionary and more critical goods, until civil unrest breaks the chain of dependencies. Everything I said also applies to other non-energy resources.
Side note: Over a decade ago I listed countries by basic resources per capita (energy, water, land) and Russia and combined (USA+Canada) were the best places to be among major countries. A country needs a military sufficiently powerful to not be pillaged once things get bad and ideally a unified populace.
Higher oil prices mean higher food prices, and higher prices of practically anything that is shipped. It particularly causes problems for low wage people around the world. It looks like inflation in the price of necessities of pretty much every kind.
It is especially a problem for people when the cost of food is say, 50% of the family income. If the cost suddenly rises to 60% of the family income, members of the family will need to go without shoes, when they need them. Their children may not be able to afford to go to school because they cannot afford school fees, or because they have no shoes.
If the are farmers, they may not be able to afford fertilizer for their farm.
I can’t understand why 1+1 = 2.

our current mode of human existence depends entirely on making selling and buying ‘stuff’ between each other.
effectively, we have turned the planet into cash—which is why some have far more than others, because some are better traders than others.
but cashflow must increase year on year to keep the system afloat
but in fact it floats on oil, which must also increase year on year
we seem to have reached the end of the line in that respect
“There’s massive amounts of uranium deposits in Africa that
54:29 are totally radioactive today. “ ?
I listen to the section you noted and the section that followed and the gist of it was, “Even if there is radioactivity today, nature will take care of it for us. The bombs that were dropped in Japan left no lasting damage, for example.”
I would agree. The self-organizing system of the world ecosystem heals itself. Trying to take care of future generations in advance is a futile effort.
“Trying to take care”
That’s especially true considering future technology. For example, I expect isotope sorters to exist eventually. They would shake an atom and from the oscillation frequency sort the atoms into isotope bins.
It may be that people don’t bother since radiation will not be a concern to people using nanotechnology to stay healthy.
>> using nanotechnology to stay healthy
My body is filled with highly advanced nanotechnology! (biology)
Good luck trying to improve on that in the near term, especially considering the hurdles posed by the immune system.
Japan was rebuilt as a business enterprise by the USA—as was Germany, the input of surplus fossil fuel energy
thats why there appears to be no lasting damage
“51:13 certainly, with very reasonable amounts of money invested, in a very short period of time, with the right political support, abate far more than the sort of peak oil cliff that would be presented
51:29 using nuclear, “?
Having said all that, I am humble enough to admit I could be wrong. This Fall could be when they deploy the WHO’s international pandemic authority and shoot for the whole enchilada. Or, Geert Vanden Bossche’s apocalyptic predictions could be right, and the jabbed will start dying in droves this Fall from vaccine-escaped viral covid strains, and what we’re seeing now is just the warmup for the government’s response to help cover up its role in creating the disaster in the first place.

In the clip, Jones described a TSA insider and a Border Patrol agent who both claimed Bob Peters’ Administration, sorry, I mean the Biden Administration, issued secret guidance on the return of covid mandates next month in September.
According to Jones, the TSA source claimed that airline masking would be re-implemented in September, and in December, the “full covid protocol” would be reinstated.
These people sure do love their Neo-paganisms. The name “Eris” comes from Greek mythology. In Greek mythology, Eris was the goddess of strife, discord, and chaos. I am not making that up. The name’s etymology traces back to the Greek word “ἔρις” (eris), which literally translates to “strife” or “discord.”
It’s not a big secret or anything. The “Goddess Eris” was the main antagonist in DreamWorks’ seventh full-length animated feature film Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas (2003). Sinbad’s archenemy Eris was depicted as the beautiful, but wicked goddess of chaos whose plan was to make the world as chaotic as possible.
NBC anchor Annie Thompson ended the segment looking straight into the camera and enthusiastically hawking Moderna’s new and improved bivalent booster shots:
“So until the new covid booster comes, get prepared. Stock up on at-home tests — they do cover that new strain — keep a mask handy in case you’re in a crowded place, and most of all, get your shots: covid, flu, and RSV, all by Halloween, to give yourself your best chance to stay healthy.”

IgG4, on the other hand, responds to allergens. If you get stung by a bee for example, your body might react with IgG3 or other antibodies and cause you to have an allergic reaction. To avoid this, your body learns how to recognise relatively insignificant foreign objects by switching to IgG4. Instead of increased inflammation to fight the foreign object, your immune system recognises that this is nothing major. Long term exposure, for example in bee keepers, produces this response. Immunotherapy also works this way by training your body with the foreign object you are allergic to until it is trained to produce an IgG4 response.

Crisis in the Cockpit: Three Airline Pilots ‘Die Suddenly’ in a Week!
Five cases of cardiac arrest among pilots this month! Four of them mid-flight.
More Recent Pilot Incapacitations in 2023:
07/19/23 – Eurowings Flight 4Y-1205 – Captain had a ‘sudden medical event’ and became incapacitated during approach to Frankfurt – First officer took control landed safely.
07/16/23 – Private Flight from Westchester, NY to Martha’s Vineyard – Pilot suffered a medical emergency on approach.
06/08/23 – Easyjet Flight U2-2143 – Captain became incapacitated and required medical assistance – the flight diverted to Split.
06/07/23 – Air Canada Flight AC-692 – During the flight, the First Officer became incapacitated. A deadheading Captain assumed the crew members duties and the aircraft landed without further incident.
05/11/23 – HiSky Europe Flight H4-474 – While climbing out of Dublin one of the pilots became incapacitated prompting the other pilot to divert the aircraft to Manchester, UK. The pilot was taken to a hospital.
05/04/23 – Tui Airways Flight BY-1424 – Pilot incapacitated, suddenly fell ill mid-flight. Flight returned to Newcastle.
04/21/23 – Easyjet Flight U2-6469 – Captain fell ill and became incapacitated inflight. Copilot diverts to Portugal.
04/04/23 – United Airlines UA-2102 – The first officer reported that he was the only one in control of the aircraft and that the captain was incapacitated. The aircraft landed in San Francisco.
03/25/23 – TAROM Flight RO-7673 – The first officer reported the captain had became incapacitated. The flight diverted to Bucharest. According to media reports in Bulgaria the captain (30 years of age) complained about chest pain and increased heart rate, then fell unconscious.
03/22/23 – Southwest Airlines Flight WN-6013 – Shortly after takeoff the captain became incapacitated. An off-duty pilot employed by another airline assisted with the landing. The flight returned to Las Vegas.
03/18/23 – Air Transat Flight TS-739 – About 200NM south of Montreal, the first officer reportedly became incapacitated. The aircraft landed in Montreal 30 minutes later.
03/13/23 – Emirates Flight EK-205 – Pilot became ill 1 hour and 30 minutes into flight. Flight returned to Milan after pilot needed “urgent medical treatment.”

03/11/23 – British Airways – Pilot suffered a heart attack and died at the crew hotel hours before he was scheduled to fly a fully-loaded Airbus A321 from Cairo to Heathrow.
03/03/23 – VARA Virgin Australia Regional Airlines Flight VA-717 – The first officer suffered a heart attack and became incapacitated. The aircraft returned to Adelaide and the first officer was taken to the hospital.
Is this incredibly alarming to anyone else?
https://drpanda.substack.com/p/crisis-in-the-cockpit-three-airline
They are not even vaccinating anyone now, and the pilot are still dying.
I would rather look at statistics. There are quite a few people dying of heart attacks. Many of them are in pretty good health.
Their organs are riddled with spike… cuz they have been turned into spike factories by the Rat Juice
This is the kinda thing that happens when one is susceptible to being played…
I much prefer statistical evidence to stories about this person and that person dying. There have always been relatively young people dying.
Me too ‘cept now they fake all the data so I prefer the anecdotal stuff…

your track record is terrible, since when? pre-2017 right?
do you know that although in hockey where scoring on 20% of shots is considered excellent, being correct on 20% of real world opinions is pathettic?
anyway, you are quite probably going to be living another 20 years or so, according to actuaries?
so WA might be a good choice, since Australia has massive resources to sell to Asia.
you might want to find a town with a low portion of woketards, though from what I have been reading, Australia is loaded with them.
you and Eris are quite the compatible pair. 😉
How do you stop the raging inflation?
How do you bail out the 20 trillion dollar CRE in America?
How do you fix the China housing crash?
Answer – you kill 8 billion – then none of the above matters
“How do you stop the raging inflation?”
don’t have to, people get poorer slooooowly, life goes on.
“How do you bail out the 20 trillion dollar CRE in America?”
what’s the real $ number for belly up CRE in 2023?
tell me the $, and I’ll tell you it’s manageable.
“How do you fix the China housing crash?”
CCP doesn’t have to, they messed up, Chinese people will be poorer because of it, life goes on.
I am afraid that problems in China will affect the rest of the world. China’s problems will tend to drop the prices of all commodities. This, in turn, may drop production of commodities.
China may try to fix their problem by declaring war against someone else, since this is a classic way of covering up government problems.
I am afraid there may be a big cutback in imports from China, and probably other parts of the world, because China is doing poorly.
Thanks,
“This, in turn, may drop production of commodities.”
I get this feeling and it is that only from the farm. Something is wrong when a small lawn tractor costs $1K for an oil change and battery. Can’t wait to see what the large one costs. It makes less and less sense to use the equipment.

Raging inflation, dollar going bust, housing crash and the imminent extinction of a species(and something about chickens).
Sounds somewhat depressing.
Despite all that, move to Australia and save some taxes.
Your sales pitch needs some attention.
It’s not about saving on taxes — it’s about F789ING the system that uses the taxes to pay for the billion dollar PR campaigns to convince the MOREONS to inject the billions of dollars of Rat Juice.
And it’s about being able to send a final f789 you email to the cop who lied last year letting him know that the final piece of the puzzle has been put in place and he can be left to rot in this sad f789ing sinking ship full of Plough Hogs that voted for a Donkey Faced Drug Addict and considered her a kind auntie.
