I’ve got an interview Tuesday for a tech scheduling position. Dealing with getting techs out to customers, rescheduling when we need to, things like that.
I also applied for a opening with the safe by ADT department which deals with DoorDash and some of these other driver jobs keeping an eye on the delivery people. I think I’d rather do that, but haven’t heard anything back since I did a follow up email the other day. Might be because of the holidays.

Big Pharma, Gates, Fauci, UK officials accused of crimes against humanity in complaint to International court
A group that includes former Pfizer vice president Dr. Michael Yeadon filed a complaint with the International Criminal Court (ICC) on behalf of UK citizens against Boris Johnson and UK officials, Bill and Melinda Gates, chief executives of Big Pharma companies, World Economic Forum executive chairman Klaus Schwab, and others for crimes against humanity.
The UK group, including an astrophysicist and a funeral director, additionally charged Dr. Anthony Fauci; Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director-general of the World Health Organization (WHO); June Raine, chief executive of Medicines and Healthcare products regulatory agency (MHRA); Dr. Radiv Shah, president of the Rockefeller Foundation; and Dr. Peter Daszak, president of EcoHealth Alliance, as “responsible for numerous violations of the Nuremberg Code … war crimes and crimes of aggression” in the UK and other countries.
After repeated unsuccessful attempts to raise a case with the English Court system, the applicants resorted to calling with “the utmost urgency” for the ICC “to stop the rollout of COVID vaccinations, introduction of unlawful vaccination passports and all other types of illegal warfare … being waged against the people of the UK.”

Government Accidentally Releases Documents on “Psycho-Electric” Weapons
https://www.popularmechanics.com/military/weapons/a19855256/muckrock-foia-psycho-electric-weapons/
At least some of the images appear to be part of an article in Nexus magazine describing a 1992 lawsuit brought by one John St. Clair Akewi against the NSA. Akewi claimed that the NSA had the “ability to assassinate US citizens covertly or run covert psychological control operations to cause subjects to be diagnosed with ill mental health” and was documenting their alleged methods.
Nexus was, and still is, an Australian magazine focused on the unexplained, conspiracy theories, alternative medicine and the like. It covered Akewi’s case in 1996 but was unable to get Akewi to discuss it further: “I tried ringing Mr Akwei to find out what was the out-come, if any, of his court case. He firmly but kindly told me that he could not speak about anything to do with the case over the phone and hung up,” reads an editor’s note at the end of the article.

I think the government is trying to create a climate of fear. Biden during the same time period suggested no one in the US with a gun could out shoot his troops. None of these jan 6 political prisoners are as culpable as these bullhorn guys at the protest.
It was interesting that several of them flew thousands of miles to the protest only they avoided Trumps speech and spent their time getting ready to break into the capitol.
And the majority of the people in these protests just looked like tourists looking for photos.

ABC News This Week host Jonathan Karl asked Fauci about comments from several of the CEOs of top airlines that “you are actually safer than you are in an ICU” on a plane because of the filtration systems on flights. Karl asked if we will reach a point where we don’t have to wear masks on airplanes.
“I don’t think so,” Fauci said. “I think when you’re dealing with a close space, even though the filtration is good, that you want to go that extra step.”

I’m sure I’m not the only one reading about how the unvaxed are an existential threat to everything you can imagine.
I’m waiting for all those ‘fully vaxed and boosted’ to find themselves in the unvaxed category as the gov’t agencies continue to change the definition of ‘vaxed’.
People will be spending half their lives in lines to get boosted/vaxed just to keep their ‘social credit score’ up.

I’ve been seeing marches in Europe against this crap – like 100K in Vienna, etc. – so I’m wondering – the conflict won’t be nation against nation but between the totalitarians and the purebloods. The tactical problem will be how the purebloods connect across national borders.
One of the points that Cardinal Vigano made in his address to Americans that I linked to above is that this is all coordinated. Globally. We just don’t have any visibility to how/what. It may be in retrospect that Biden was a blessing – he’s too stupid/impaired to have any credibility regardless. But I doubt that ‘they’ don’t have someone in the wings waiting for his exit. It won’t be Harris, it won’t be Hillary. I thought about whether or not my Manchin scenario is still intact given how he’s managed to piss off his colleagues. The question there is whether his colleagues have more sway than the fat cat Dem donors. And I that’s going to be a fight between the silicon valley types and the ‘traditional’ types.

So it seems all the “vaccinated” people are catching and spreading this Omnicom variant of COVID because their bodies were “vaccinated” and their immune system was trained to recognize the spikey protein and attack it. Well that is like telling your body to attack anything with purple hair.
COVID changed its spike, like dying its hair or wearing a wig. FOOLED YOU antibodies!
All along I have said that the best, and real, vaccine is one that contains ALL the parts of the virus. The immune system then recognises the virus even though it may change one part of itself. ( more specifically if one part changes due to an error in its replication. Viruses are not intelligent )
A virus can change its hair colour or wear a wig but its lips and asshole remain the same…..

As I was bored this afternoon I did some Googling on blood brain barrier and COVID. I apologise for not providing links….
There were quite a few research papers from June/July 2020 on post mortem studies on people who had died with COVID. They are very interesting. The subsequent studies were done in vitro ( as in a test tube not in vivo as in a living body ) that showed the spike protein can, and does, cross the blood brain barrier and cause damage.
That was June/July 2020. “vaccine” that causes cells in the body to produce the spike protein were released late 2020.
So it was known early on that the COVID spike protein damaged the brain and other organs of people infected with COVID.
The “vaccine” floods the body with spike proteins in order to trigger an immune response.
I would like to see a study of dead people who are fully “vaccinated” but never contracted COVID to see if there are any of these spike proteins present or any damage they may have caused evident.
LOL and that ain’t going to happen, is it?

@ Possum:
Hi, what you refer to is “immune escape” right and your theory is that the driver behind the more dangerous mutants are vaccines. This is not impossible but unlikely. Why?
1. The first more dangerous mutants (Alpha, Beta…) came at a time when there was no vaccine available.
2. In 2021 the mutants Gamma (P.1 – Brazil/Amazonas), Delta (India) and Omicron (South Africa) came from countries with low or very low vaccination rates. From countries like Israel with high vaccination rates didn’t come more dangerous mutants.
3. Immune escape can also happen in a population with complete endemic contamination without vaccination.
For the record: I’m vaccinated. 2 x AstraZeneca and 1 x BionTech/Pfizer and if it is necessary to have a fourth one I’ll get it. Ah and I feel well 🙂

I’m very surprised and sorry that this blog or at least some of you have joined the conspiracy theorists of the anti-vaxxers.
Kennedy has already been an anti-vaxxer since about 2005 but the movement became more popular when an actress came up with the claim „measles vaccination causes autism“ based on a flawed and fraudulent „study“ published in the „Lancet“.

You may remember how we laughed about them at that time over at the other blog we shall not name. Isn’t it curious that none of them anti-vaxxers is ready to discuss their claims in public with scientists and release their own scientific research? No, b’cause they have non and they only make claims on other scientists work which they willfully misinterpret or even worse take some sentences complete out of context and claim the opposite of the study conclusion.
Their tactic is very simple: make claims, claims and more claims b’cause it is much more expensive and time consuming to refute false claims with scientific expertise than to make them and sooner or later scientific institutions will give up b’cause they need money and time for more important research and the anti-vaxxers will call this a victory.
Every vaccine, every drug, every medicine even those based on herbes can have side effects in rare cases. You all know this but you don’t throw away your pain killer drugs or your anti-inflammatory medicine. Btw.: „Donald Trump revealed he received a booster shot of the Covid-19 vaccine, drawing boos from a crowd of his supporters in Dallas.“ (Guardian, NYT, Politico). I remember very well how Trump was hated in Europe b’cause he lay his hand on every prospective vaccine and ordered them in masses. He even spent government money to push the production. This is how you deal with a pandemic and not how the EU did at that time.
After this and now to all of you:
Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year.

What I will say is that Kennedy is not an anti-vaxer, he IS concerned about vaccines he considers dangerous. I disagree with him about a lot of things but not on this.
A couple of points:
Kennedy’s book is about FAUCI who is Mengele on steroids. His reach is global.
This mRNA stuff is NOT a vaccine. I don’t know what it is, but it’s not that. I will gladly take a true vax (which I THINK may be Novavax), but I’m not touching the mRNA crap with a barge pole.

That’s what Biden says…
I have an otherwise healthy 40-year-old sister in law that is going to be disabled for life from this “vaccine”. That’s all I need to know. My side effects were temporary, hers are permanent.
That being said, I do think it was created with true intentions. I don’t know if the batches were later contaminated or if there were unintended effects but something has gone seriously wrong. There are far too many vaccinated being hospitalized with covid and too many vaccinated suffering from side effects that are not being reported by the media nor being looked at by the medical side of things. When medical science is being ignored for political reasons we have an issue. A vaccine that does not seem to protect you from the very illness that it is designed to vaccinate you from is problematic. If it was just a lack of protection from the variants that would not be a problem, but at every level we are seeing people hospitalized that are vaccinated suffering from the exact same virus they are vaccinated against. This is not normal.
well, i can add this. i have been doing nothing but triage at our flagship hospital for a month (blown shoulder, not allowed to lift etc). this means that i have triaged well over 1000 patients in the ER.
why do i keep getting patients with positive covid tests who are vaxxed and boosted? there has been at least 50 of them. it is a daily occurrence.
the reason is that this IS NOT a vaccine in the traditional reliable form. it is an mrna shot that teaches the body to go after a certain protein. covid is doing what all corona viruses do, they mutate rapidly. hence the reason there is no vax for the common cold, which is a corona. this vax is becoming useless. just as the infectious disease doctors told me would happen.
so, why the massive push for something that is becoming ineffective? this has nothing to do with the vax itself, it is about control.
don’t give me ‘believe the science’ either. science is dead on this topic. the scientific method is not allowed, therefore this isnt science at all, it is bureaucratic rule by fiat where the scientific method is not allowed to apply.
and why the walk off guggi? we are allowed to have different opinions here.

On Tuesday, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director Dr. Anthony Fauci advised that it was “entirely conceivable and likely” that the coronavirus would be much like the common cold or flu in the United States.

@ Guggi:
Hi Guggi, I don’t think even this small blog is monolithic in it’s view of vaccines. Cold Warrior has published some very pro vaccine content in the past. Before all the COVID work. Your vaccine views wouldn’t affect how I think of you as a long time poster. Vaccine discussions are probably delicate.
WHO, the CDC, and Fauci have definitely lied to the world about the pandemic.
I disagree with Jennie McCarthy and Robert Kennedy on vast conspiracies around vaccine. Global public health has been more direct in it’s policies to control populations. No conspiracies needed. One only has to listen to Bidens latest speech. No vaccine is safe for all. But if we have a serious pandemic like smallpox or the plague and a vaccine is available then we need a mandate to avoid the Typhoid Mary situation. The psychology of how to get to herd immunity is counter intuitive.
I agree with Jennie McCarthy that we could make vaccines greener and its wiser to delay some of the childhood vaccines. Her point on the MMR is that its given in one office visit instead of three visits in order to save money.
Public health refuses to acknowledge issues with the vaccines. When I took the yellow fever vaccine (mandated by the gov for travel to the Amazon) I was ill for three days. I took the moderna about 4 months ago. I was awakened last night repeatedly by a fast heart rate. This has been daily since taking the Moderna shot. Most people take it with no ill effects.
If you follow the Joe Rogan podcast with Dr McCollough he presents plenty of evidence in regards to having a treatment plan along side a vaccine plan. And Rogan cured himself of covid by taking a kitchen sink of drugs prescribed by his doctor. McCollough has said he is glad to debate. The weight of social media thrown against those two men for being heretics leads one to question the wisdom of public health officials. All public health officials are collectivists by the nature of their work. I’ve worked directly with them. They have a job obligation to produce effective policies to manage emergencies. Cheaply. They can never account for an individual citizen.
I’ve only listened to Robert Kennedy once. He has the issue where he wants to talk and debate his ideas but public health officials are afraid to do that with him.
But even though I took the shots you will find me making fun of progressives and the public health system. Global public health has failed the world in its inability to discuss the pandemic horizontally and vertically to the ends of human wisdom, knowledge, and experience.

2. The Chinese military was using the 23 and me genetic data to try and create a virus that exempted the Chinese. (I kind of think this one is true)
3. Bill Gates mind mushroomed out from all his money and he feels a need now to lower the population of the planet via public health. He no longer has a common touch. He like much of the wealthy has transcended to a superior life. Less people eq less criticism for him.

According to their filings, for years Hertz has falsely reported that its cars were stolen as part of its regular business practice, “ensnaring its customers in accusations of car theft, throwing them in jail on felony charges, prosecuting them, burdening them with criminal records that impact their livelihoods, and separating them from their family and loved ones.”

Some more stories :-))
The well known philosopher Immanuel Kant was an anti-vaxxer claiming “people would become more animalistic” if they are vaccinated. Only short before his death he admitted he was wrong.
The Habsburg-Queen Maria Theresia initiated the first Center for Smallpox vaccination in Vienna, she had survived smalpox in 1767 but lost three of her children to smallpox, opened in 1800 20 years after her death. Vaccination was costfree but many people feared they would become “cows” (the word vaccination comes from the Latin word vacca for cow)
In 1876 in Austria and Germany a magazin was published on a regular basis against vaccination. A book was published in which it was claimed that the Jews were behind vaccination b’chause of money and controlling the non-Jews.
1901 a “society of doctors against vaccination” was founded in Vienna, the same in Germany in 1908.
In 1907 street fights broke out between hundred of vegans, followers of Kneipp and natural medicine on one side and students and doctors promoting vaccination on the other side.
I could go on and on 🙂
The arguments are allways the same only adapted to the 20th/21st century.
It lasted nearly 200 years until 1980 that the WHO could call the world smallpox-free.

Mandate has been redefined as requirement.
Mayors of Chicago and New York as well as the POTUS just this last week put out official statements threatening people with consequences.
Its the control culture. IMO it emanates from these Mayor’s and POTUS having abusive upbringings. They only feel safe when they control the outcome.
Thus you see them mandating masks and then going about their business maskless.
And lets look at reality. Cloth masks are at best 5 percent efficient. There is no public health push to get people N95 masks. Social distancing was a made up number from some doctors kid. No treatment plans have been expressed as federal policy. Vitamin D, Zinc, Vitamin C, Exercise outdoors, lose weight. When’s the last time a politician or public health officials mentioned those?
The Rogan kitchen sink treatment worked. Yet the media machine turned its hatred toward it. And public health officials ignored it.
What role does Big Pharma place in this? There is a current netflix documentary called Dopesick which pulls the curtain back.
Yes there is always going to be a chunk of the population that is paranoid about vaccinations. But we see here that catching Omnicron looks to be much safer than getting a vaccine shot. Yet government officials are doubling down on mandates. When a mandate has no effect other than to disrupt the economy. And that fits the millennial mindset of gaining status in life as a disruptor. They will gin up fears over a mild pandemic in order to do to the middle class what ANTIFA is doing to Portland. It’s an idea they want to take hold. And one that needs to be forcibly rejected.

Very interesting history, some of which I’m aware of.

For the ‘traditional’ vaccines, e.g., polio, did the vaxed have to worry about being exposed to the unvaxed? No.
But people who have been injected w/the mRNA shots are afraid of people who haven’t been injected, because the mRNA shots don’t protect them??!! If this stuff works, why doesn’t it work? If the mRNA side effects are ‘rare’, why are so many documented cases of catastrophic side effects coming out? I don’t know what it was like in Europe, but when swine flu hit here, they got a vaccine out. For about 1 in 100,000 the side effect was Guillain-Barre syndrome and they stopped the vax. The side effects from the mRNA tech are worse and much more frequent. We are looking at THE EVIDENCE, not interesting stories from the past.

The cow thing is very interesting. I wrote about it several weeks ago.
It was realised that many people who worked with cows, such as the ones that milked them didn’t get Smallpox.
The cows had Cowpox, similar genetically to the human version Smallpox.
People who worked with cows caught Cowpox, a very mild disease that causes blister like skin lesions.
The first inoculations against Smallpox were done by bursting the blisters of someone with Cowpox then infecting others by scratching them and smearing the blister juice into the wound. Causing Cowpox.
The immune system then learned how to fight the Cowpox virus, and because Smallpox was nearly identical that gave immunity to that too.
Hence the Vacca/cow references.

Smallpox history is interesting. It was definitely a boon to public health. If memory serves George Washington had his army vaccinated for small pox. One of the reasons he won the war.
Polio vaccine creation was rife with mismanagement and failure to understand. The trials gave polio to a good number of the test subjects. But the ultimate outcome was a plus.
The anthrax vaccine was a blunder and administered in fear.
I see Trump got vaxxed and Biden congratulated Trump on creating the vaccines. I think that is some sort of back channel communication on pulling together to end the pandemic. That should have been done in 2019. It’s bad to abuse the pandemic politically.
I tend to view the vax status the same as I view military status. It’s your choice and the choice doesn’t reflect badly on you either path you take.
Tim Pool caught the covid and it was serious for him. He was vaccinated. He was on the verge of being ICU’d and he took the monoclonal antibodies in the kitchen sink formula. Healed him in 2 days. It’s hard too lose someone in the pandemic. I think all the shouting and lack of clear treatment paths clouds medical services. We should have allowed ivermectin in one region and HCQ in another. Get some regional stats on methods.
While the mRNA vaccines are revolutionary I don’t have confidence that humans are yet wise enough to manipulate the human body at that level. It’s better to use this tech to target populations whose quality of life will improve.

The science of the mRNA is pretty interesting. It reads just like computer code. It looks like one could fix broken DNA where one switch is malfunctioning and producing a disease.
John Hopkins link above says the DNA in not affected. I don’t see how it is not affected. If you poke a DNA strand over and over then evolution is going to notice. It will happen while the scientist is not looking in the microscope. The human cell will adapt and the behavior of its mutable on/off chromosomes will update.
What has been annotated by Brett Weinstein on the Darkhorse blog is that the mRNA shot was supposed to be localized in the arm but it surprised scientists that it traveled.

In England in the 70s you were done with school at 16. Off into the real world. Get a job, get married ( with parental consent )
Or you could stay in high school for another two years and take three subjects only. Plus the mandatory couple of hours per week sports, and a couple of hours per week vocational/fun stuff like metalwork, woodwork and cooking. Yep cooking classes in high school!
I took Biology, Chemistry ( organic and inorganic ) and Physics as my 16-18 year courses.
I do not know what education is like now in the UK, but after talking to many USA college students what we were taught in that specialised time 16-18 years old is comparable to what a college student is exposed to in the first three years of a four year degree in sciences.
Having said that in the USA it seems that most degrees are dependent on whatever a person took in the last year of a four year degree course.

Remember that radio station in Leesburg VA I told you about that was broadcasting CCP propaganda?
Here’s the story behind that
The Chinese Communist Party paid a Washington, D.C., radio station $4.4 million over the past two years to broadcast propaganda, according to new federal foreign agent disclosures.
The Virginia-based Potomac Media Group detailed its lucrative contract with the Communist Party’s International Communication Planning Bureau in filings last Thursday with the Justice Department. As part of the deal, Potomac Media’s WCRW, an AM station, airs content from China Global Television Network and a series of talk shows that portray China in a positive light.
Potomac Media’s filing with the Justice Department provides extensive details about its arrangement with the International Communication Planning Bureau, an arm of the Communist Party’s Propaganda Department. The Planning Bureau can review broadcasts and verify programming, according to the contract. Potomac Media is required to provide the Planning Bureau with reports on audience reach, feedback, and “evaluation from international organizations.”

RINO Maryland Governor Larry Hogan Halts Monoclonal Antibody Treatment for COVID-19 at Behest of Biden Regime
“As of Dec. 22, 2021, the Maryland Department of Health, based on recommendations from the Federal Health and Human Services (HHS), has paused federal allocation of bamlavinimab/etesevimab and Regen-COV, the agents that have been used for monoclonal antibody infusion therapy for COVID-19,” Meritus announced.
They claimed that this move was being made with the excuse of the rise of the omicron variant, which is supposedly resistant against this kind of treatment.
“We understand this news will be concerning to members of our community who may be waiting to receive this therapy,” says Carrie Adams, chief transformation officer for Meritus Health. “While we must comply with this direction from the state, we are committed to the care and support of patients in our community.”

@ Guggi:
Would you say that they are disconnected entities where RNA has no dependence on DNA and DNA has no dependence on RNA?
@ Guggi:
The second article is by Paul Offit who is a note expert in vaccines. however he looks through the DNA/RNA eco system with a set of boundaries. By his chemical criteria the DNA is immune to being affected by the volatile alkaline RNA. By his parameters this is probably true. However, I am suggesting that human body cell dynamics have a much larger environment than what he is measuring. Chemically,Electrically, and mechanically.
My theory would be that if you vaccinate Fauci every hour for 3 months then his being will change. And the change will start in the DNA/RNA interactions as the DNA get overwhelmed by a constant stream of protein stimulation from the mRNA actions. Human evolution shows that this occurs all the time in nature.
It’s much too complex for me to analyze. But I would say be careful being sure about how mother nature reacts to science. It’s pride before the fall.
I doubt if those Organic chem bonds change at all in this process, but I would suggest that an imbalance in them may increase the odds of a gene turning a chromosome off or on. The DNA will evolve when that happens. Just as the virus evolves when exposed to difficult levels of light. We probably don’t notice either of those actions or attribute them to the virus/vaccine affair.
proposal: Yes, mRNA shots don’t directly alter the DNA of Fauci,
Yes, mRNA shots will indirectly alter the DNA Of Fauci. For most of the Fauci population the alteration will be benign and insignificant as the symmetry of the DNA is strong enough to take the stress and snap back to normal. For a small significant percentage of the Fauci population their DNA will be indirectly altered permanently for better or for worse. And subsequently be subjected to the judgement of nature as to whether that alteration lives or dies on the vine.
Human test tube.
Global public health wishes to avoid this type of thinking as it infects the mind DNA of a person making them vaccine hesitant and defeating the herd immunity process. Rather than working to create a spectrum of herd immunity choices global public health generates totalitarian mandates as we see in places in Europe where the culture is conditioned to welcome that. That is the key element of any good zombie movie. 😉
All vaccines would fall under this type of look. Not just the mRNA one. But the argument that mRNA does not affect DNA seems out of focus and ineffective to me. Long term clinical trials will prove that right or wrong. But this virus will be long gone by the time the results are in. There shouldn’t be a rush to mandate or passport people in this very mild pandemic. Rather pick up all the lessons and debate vaccine passports over the next 10 years.

Follow the YouTube instructions to see how ridiculously complex crypto purchasing it when not on coinbase. But it gives a great listen in the mechanics currently used. It probably will take me an hour or two to make the purchase.

@ darkwords:
I spent about 15 minutes trying to figure this out and I’m totally lost. It will have to wait until after christmas. It’s not FJB per se, it’s crypto
Which I’m VERY ambiguous about, but I’m all for building a parallel ‘society’ that will fuck over the control the left has.
My basic question remains – So I have an X amount of crypto that translates into WHAT that I can use at the grocery store or the vet? As far as I can see, the value of crypto is expressed in USD? As I asked before when I saw a piece that some people hold hundreds of billions in crypto – where do you cash that out at a bank? Where/how do you spend it or use it ?
I’m VERY wary of a cashless society. I’m all for making money – I learned about gas price hedging the other day (and you don’t even have to buy gas to play the game) – but that’s real money (in fiat currency terms).
I can’t get my head around what crypto really is. I GET there’s no middleman, but don’t tell me it can’t be hacked, it already has been, and if it becomes the currency of gov’ts, a cashless society is one in which the gov’t can cut off your money if you don’t get the vax.
So where does one go with this conundrum?

Okay. Meh.
Today we got a preliminary grading plan. Civil engineer calculated that the finish floor should be at +759.97’… that’s 3/8ths of an inch difference from my eyeball estimation. 😀

Use the Coinbase account to learn basic crypto. It’s what most people in the US do. Crypto.com is an alternative. And long term in crypto you have to accept that you could lose it all in the blink of an eye if governments crack down on it. Buy $20 of BTC, $20 of ETH, and $20 of MATIC. All can be bought in coinbase. Then you will have a daily chart to follow to see what your $60 does over time. I registed my paypal account and can just click buy crypto through paypal and it takes a few seconds.
That FJB process is much more complicated but gives a good education on tokenomics.
Barter > Gold > Fiat > Crypto I think long ago you recommended a book on monetary theory and the fed reserve. Might have been in LGF days. I have it on my kindle. Only partly read. I need to get back into it.
But basically money is what ever a majority of people agree to be of value. the book Sapiens does a good job talking about collective value.
https://www.amazon.com/Sapiens-Humankind-Yuval-Noah-Harari/dp/0062316095
Crypto is taking fiat value and translating the bookkeeping record of it into a cloud distributed database. One that can’t be hacked. Then collectively recognize that 1 bitcoin has an accept world value. The BTC process has never been hacked. It was designed to make the hacking too expensive for China to do. Subsidiary stuff has been password hacked.
You can convert BTC to Dollars on any cyrpto exchange that has dollars in reserve to give you. Some have no dollars and only hold other crypto.
At my local mini market, I can deposit dollars into and ATM and get BTC and the reverse. Only limited by the ATM account limits.
There is an effort to get McDonalds and Burger King to accept DOGE and SHIBA crypto directly. But we are still in the 5 pound portable cell phone stage. Nothing is seamless or easy.
Taxes on crypto are messy. The feds are children when it comes to working with Crypto. Trump just said Crypto was dangerous. He is locked into fiat policy then and doesn’t understand the impact that is coming with crypto.
If you and I and the rest of the blog believe monopoly money(BTC) is our preferred medium of exchange then among ourselves we can use monopoly money to do our mutual business. If enough people do that then the monetary system shifts from Fiat to Monopoly money. Initially we still have to convert to Fiat to buy milk and gas. But eventually the tech is put in place to cut out the fiat system. You’ll wave that RFID chip embedded in you hand at the gas pump and a secure crypto contract will be executed that moves 10 satoshis from the record of you in the cloud bookkeeping system of the bitcoin blockchain to Shell’s cloud account on the shell blockchain. Your vaccine status will also be checked on the Cardano medical blockchain to see if an anti-vaxxer fee needs to be tacked on to your transaction. Your Tesla will glow a faint purple as you drive to let people around you know that you aren’t vaxxed. Courtesy of Starlink and the Tesla consumer blockchain. You will have agreed to this in old contract form in order to own a drivers license and use electricity provided by the government.
Of course a lot of that can be avoided if people get smart about crypto before big Tech ingrains its power into it. There is a whole section of crypto dedicated to thwarting Jack and Zuckerberg and Bezos. It’s found in that world where the FJB token resides.

if you want to get a real simple feel for crypto and an energy free mining solution try this. https://minepi.com/nexusa use nexusa as the invite code. It’s an app that goes on the phone and you mine a bitcoin alternative with a daily keypress.
When Amazon creates its own crypto exchange then you will see a huge jump in people using crypto to buy stuff. The value of BTC will skyrocket then and also get more stable. Unless something like PI replaces it. Your BTC will have outpaced inflation and gold and real estate as investments. It’s still like oil well wild catting.

POW (Proof of Work) validates miners on the internet grid using graphics cards and CPU power to validate database records in a global consensus by solving an increasingly complex math problem.
POS (Proof of Stake) Validates a crypto transaction by a computer node voting on its shareholder size. (Uses way less electrity)
That PI link I listed is a newer method that uses the cell phone population of its members to validate transactions.
Transaction validation is meant to declare that $1 is $1 and that it wasn’t duplicated, stolen, or hacked. It’s meant to create a confidence in exchange of value.
BitCoin is 90 percent mined. No more left to mine after the total is reached. Then just transaction validation will occur.
@ eaglesoars:
I like https://cryptoslate.com as a general Crypto news site.
And I also moved and couldn’t find a primary care physician unless I drove to a large town one hour away. I just signed up to a hospital group locally but they balk in seeing me if I am missing one signature on something I have never seen.
So i have to roll my own health care. I think the problem in my area are meth users. The local clinic had posted a note threatening patients who missed appointments. It sounded like they thought all their patients were criminals. Probably frustrates a doctor that none of his patients can pay their bills unless he accepts meth as payment.

Not to be a real downer on this but the current problem with this generation of crypto (BTC) is the transaction time. It averages about 10 minutes.

Crypto needs all the downer talk it can get. Too much greed in it.
There is a coin called AMP on the ETH blockchain that is meant to speed up transactions. You can use AMP to buy things in seconds and they do the escrow bookkeeping in the background. They will ok your purchase immediately and cover the cost while they hold your BTC while it clears the miners. For a SMALL fee.

Googling how to buy a gun in Texas. Also Googling eviction procedure.
Yep my apartment is a mess. Trash everywhere. Single man alone who lost the will to give a fuck.
Got a note on the door today.
So went to office, told them I would remove all trash by Monday. They said “OK we will inspect Tuesday”
I don’t think that will be the end of it. I KNEW someone had been in my apartment last Tuesday when I was not there. Laptop was NOT where I left it.
Also as Tuesday was miserable weather there were FOUR cats asleep on the bed when I left for work.
Apartment complex changed ownership last month.
So taking out trash, yes there is a lot. Empty Amazon boxes and Amazon Fresh delivery packaging. Had to call work today to say I would not be in tomorrow.
Looks like I will lose my part time job ( first job in almost three years )
Anyway I do not like living here. It is depressing. I should have moved three years ago when I lost my full time job.
Gunfire several times per week. Loud music till all hours, street racing, gang shit, afraid to go out after dark even to the dumpster, nothing gets fixed, one washing machine out of six works in the laundry room and there is no hot water in there anyway.
Finally an incentive to move, but where to go with four cats?
@ Possum:
Texas could be different but in Ca, OR, And Wash its a violation for a landlord to enter a premise for inspection without a 24-72 hour notice. An emergency needs to be accompanied by police. A trashy apartment is a usually not an issue. Especially in the circumstances as you describe them. I would think they had a complaint from a neighbor and decided to excuse themselves in. Most likely cat related.
you could go see them and ask them for work in maintenance. odds are low but it makes a positive conversation with them. If its big corporate apt ownership they won’t really care.
Again Texas might be different. Austin while not in your locale probably has a progressive anti landlord agency. And they would give you the correct advice once you describe your situation to them.
Evictions here take a minimum of 2 months and cost the landlord $4,000 in fees and lost rent. You don’t have to pay rent. You can stay until the day the Sheriff comes to lock you out of your apartment and place your belonging on the curb. He has to give you a notice as to when that is. If you want to stretch that out. IT will affect your credit if you do that. Check and see if there is a renter/landlord manual for your city or country and give some copies to apartment management to read. That usually stops them from breaking the law unless they are criminals.
When I was searching craiglist was the easiest place to find cheap non conventional housing. Place an ad and also read the ads. Depends on what you can afford. Smaller cities are best. From my view its easiest to rent a small room or studio or buy a small lot and park an RV on it.
@ darkwords:
Yes, my place is a mess. I am not sure about the 24 hour notice in Texas, the laws are very vague. I did get two calls on Tuesday while I was at work I never answered. Deleted history so I can’t tell where they were from. No voice mail left.
Strange thing is Tuesday evening there was much banging and crashing and hammering in the apartment below me. Serious structural banging. TV was bouncing. Looked outside and they were hauling trash cans of smashed sheet rock out of apartment.
Apartment below me had been running an illegal take away food service for years. LOL food awesome but they kept setting off my smoke alarms…..
The fact that during the “inspection” while I was not there and was not notified they dug through the trash, empty Amazon boxes mainly with a few from Chewy and got out an old laptop I do not use. They didn’t put it back where it lived.
Also, due to the roach problem here I DO NOT EVER turn off my main computer. The little fuckers get in the fans when it is off and, well on powering on much death and destruction and fan not running warnings ensue.
Tuesday when I came home main computer asked me to log in. It had been restarted.
Anyway, went to office today. Made a deal I would clean up by Monday and get some help doing it as I am not doing good in the moving about department.
On a totally different but kind of related subject I have two GoPro type cameras not doing anything and a couple of security cameras still in their boxes.
Tomorrow project is first of all continue to clean to do as landlord asked and second…..
Well the fucking place will be like a film studio from now on.

Also Texas is a one party consent recording state.
So as long as one of the cats meows ” yes ” I am covered.
See I have not lost my sense of humour.
