I wonder if the eclipse was the trigger for the U.S. debt death spiral.

Let’s all take a moment to congratulate Vanguard for blocking its customers from a 50% monthly return.

Getting ready for spring with some fresh permaculture gold.

Chickens are back to laying strong again, but for some reason they’re totally avoiding the nesting boxes and going all in on the pine shavings bag.

Strange birds.

If I was Tucker, I would ask Putin what it would take for Russia to end the war. Put that on the record and let Americans hear it.

Then the American public can determine whether it wants to continue to fund the other side of this disaster or stop and focus on our own country.

What I find most pathetic about these twitter war pigs is they keep trying to blame everything on Trump (who holds no elected office) and the GOP (whose leadership negotiated the Ukraine $ giveaway) rather than acknowledging that it’s actually the American people who are over it.

Call me crazy, but perhaps the guy tweeting from a foreign country about how those who disagree on foreign policy are enemies…is actually the bad actor here.

And I don’t even like the GOP to begin with.

Hilariously stupid and dishonest, as expected.

Russia has plenty of cards against Ukraine. In contrast, Ukraine has only one real card and that is unlimited U.S. assistance. And this is failing, not because of Trump, who isn’t president, but because the public is sick of it.

To the people actually running the country, the U.S. is already borderless. What they’re actually running is a global empire for personal power and wealth. The internals of the U.S. are a mere distraction or annoyance to be quelled with propaganda, handouts and eventually force.

Epstein may be gone, but his child rape blackmail operation continues to pay dividends to those who funded and created him.

$20 billion for the border is just marketing for the unwashed masses. The real point of the bill is the keep the foreign money laundering spigot open.

Zelensky is taking too much of the “spoils.” Spoils of what, losing?

The fact that such tremendous spoils exist and are funneled in egregious amounts to the people losing the war tells you in no uncertain terms how much of a senseless, murderous sham this whole war really is.

Testing out our new portable power station. Getting 370W from the 400W solar panel. Not bad for early February.

If the big tech narrative starts to fail it could be very good for bitcoin. The money’s gotta go somewhere.

Not only do I have zero interest in any of this, on a much bigger level this sort of thing results in a total fork of humanity.

There will be augmented android humans and organic humans. They will be so distinct from that point it will effectively be separate species.

We’re entering a period where every single thing that goes wrong in the country (and there will be plenty) will be officially blamed on China, Russia, Iran or a combination of all three. Yes, geopolitics will be the final nail in the imperial coffin, but the decline is homegrown.

My second shiitake block is looking a lot healthier than the first one.

Trump’s resurgence and widespread support of Texas at the border reflect the national mood. Americans are tired of D.C. and want the people there humiliated. Furthermore, Trump and the border could disappear tomorrow and the sentiment would remain and just manifest in other ways.

I said this years ago, but it’s worth repeating. The U.S. is no longer a country in any real sense. It could once again become a country and I hope it does, but the only chance of that happening in any real sense is via rebirth as a union of states versus a centralized empire.

“How can you be so insensitive about all these journalists losing their jobs.”

Please. The most consequential journalist of the 21st century in rotting away in prison and nobody is doing a thing about it.
