Wimminz – celebrating skank ho's everywhere

There are various “tracking” apps that you can install on basically any portable device, even netbooks and laptops, and they all report back on various things such as location etc etc etc.

Any device owned by anyone under 20 will show as offline with a flat battery for most of the time, sure, they’ll get charged up again, but they will then get used and flattened asap.

It’s not just fucking smartphones and tablets though, talk to any roadside assistance guy, the number of callouts they get from 20 and under who left home less than 5 miles ago but are now out of gas… so they basically drove it home on fumes past several filling stations, and in the morning promptly forgot it was empty last night, forgot to look at the gas gauge, etc etc etc.

It’s not just smartphones and tablets and cars though, the same thing applies to fridges and food larders, a 20 y.o. will invite you in for some coffee, and then realise they are out of milk, and sugar, and coffee, and the cups are still in the sink, dirty, and they are out of washing up soap too.

Three posts in one fucking day, yeah, I know, but I also know we weren’t like that when I was a etc, and no, not because we didn’t have smartphones and shit back then, we had plenty of things that would “run out”, in fact in some ways we had more, there were no 24 hour shops down the road.

So what changed?

Well you tube isn’t exactly completely bereft of people with Tesla’s running out of charge, I dunno why this is either, same as a gas vehicle, when the gauge gets low you stop whatever you are doing and fill her up… I’ve never run out of fuel in my life, ever, in anything, nor have I had the “battery’s going, gotta go now..” syndrome.

But then I’m not a worthless cunt, and I think, in my advancing years, that this is the real issue here.

I can think of various ways to cure it;

1. compel everyone to have a pacemaker controlled via an app surgically installed.
2. compel everyone to have every vehicle and device “internet of crap” enabled so it all reports to a central database.
3. compel everyone to have a smartphone and an app, if any of the internet of crap devices reports less than 25% charge the app shuts down, if the smartphone has less than 25% of charge the app shuts down, if the pacemaker loses bluetooth connectivity with the app for more than 300 seconds it goes into defib mode until the user is dead.

I think this is an eminently reasonable and minimalist approach to the problem.

The problem being that almost nothing is fatal any more.

I’ve just spent a few weeks at the behest of a close friend trying to cure the “worthless cunt” in their barely pre teen kids, actually, that isn’t true, because it implies that I ever had any hope for even a shred of success, I didn’t, but I still played it for keeps, because being brutally honest, fuck the kids, they choose to be worthless cunts, even when given opportunity after opportunity, they still chose the worthless cunt option every time.

No, I did it for the parent, now, going forwards in your life, no matter what befalls the little shits, you *CAN* sit there and be free of all guilt, none of it was your doing, you were only ever a minority player (other parental unit, grandparents, school, disney, state, etc) and you got outvoted all along the way, nobody could have done more, you did not fail them in any way shape of form, you did you level fucking best.

Fuckem, fuck the guilt, and move on with YOUR life.

I took great pleasure the other day when a cousin asked me if I could repair PC’s and macs, I said of course I can you stupid bastard, that isn’t the issue, the issue is the question you don’t want to ask me, WILL I do it for you, and the answer is yes, in theory, in practice you won’t want to pay me what I’ll charge you.

The cousin left in a huff, so another cousin asked, how much would I charge, I explained, the charge isn’t based on the job or the work, that’s a starting base for sure, but there has to be a surcharge, the pain tax, it has to cost enough so the bastard regrets letting his kids destroy and abuse shit, and enough to ensure he never asks me again, ever, no matter what.

I getting the boink look, so I explain, listen, it’s not that I hate the asshole, I don’t, it’s not that I hate money, I don’t, but inevitably with these things the job is never, ever, ever, just the job, there is a whole load of other shit involved, it may be lifetime free support of your repair, it may be rescuing little johnny’s homework that is long gone, the point is the job is never the job, and I know this because if the job was just the job the asshole would have taken the fucking mac to the fucking genius bar in town… and the pc to some other dude, and just paid up.

He’d have had a working PC and a working mac back.

The job is never the job with assholes.

That’s why I will *literally* quote 200% of brand new in a box replacement price to assholes, I do not want the fucking “job”, and “no” never cuts it, they always come back with some sort of whine, 3000 bucks to fix your 1500 buck mac cuts it every time.. trust me.

The whole point of the job was them avoiding a scenario where *I* couldn’t fucking lose, because that is mutually exclusive to the scenario they were looking for, where *they* couldn’t fucking lose..

Like I said, those jobs are never the job.

Any scenario where the other guy can’t lose, chances are I’m supposed to be the fall guy, but that’s Ok, it’s not exploitation, it’s just Uncle Fred, he don’t mind, not really, he family innit.

I charge £1 if you are in my car and want to plug into my 2 amp USB charger, you do not have to pay, I do not have to let you use my charger.

In my house the free guest wifi is 200/200 kbit, bit, not byte, nobody wants to use it, even though it’s free, that’s fine, nobody is making them use it, and they don’t want to pay to use the 100/100 mbit, so they don’t get it.

I related to a friend the story about be holding my hand out and saying UBER when one of her indoors kids wanted to go somewhere, he has taken that idea and run with it, and Derek I fucking salute you, you are a fucking hero amongst men…

Derek (he doesn’t mind me outing him) got a tee shirt done with UBER written in huge letters across it, and below that “20p a mile”,  any time anyone, and I mean anyone, including his wife, wants him to run them somewhere, he puts the tee shirt on and holds his hand out… cash only dudes…

Derek’s wife thought it would be funny to get a tee shirt too, hers said Disneyland, and beneath is “50 quid a ride”, she put it on at bedtime.

He passed, and went out and bought a lockable cash box the next day, and put his wallet and keys in it, she wanted to go do the weekly shop at tesco, he points at the tin, it’s got “closed by the management” written on it.

You can’t be fucking serious, she says to him.

What makes you think it is always a joke that can be ignored if I say it, and important and serious if anyone else in this house says it, is his reply.

Derek’s wife has rediscovered her awe and admiration and love for her man.

His kids are still worthless cunts who don’t get it though.

He’s training them to say “you want fries with that” at the end of every sentence they speak to him, his logic is impeccable, in 5 years when he’s kicked the lazy bastards out of the house, that is how they will end every conversation they have with him, and everyone else.

Derek almost makes me wish I was married again… lol..

ZH isn’t what it used to be, and of course the change of ownership had a lot to do with that, and now it’s at a place where you can’t read a single comment thread without someone else commenting “You’ve only been signed up six weeks newb, go back to chairman zog” or some such.

This was the death of slashdot too, back in the day with my barely 5 digit ID, it had been low 4 digit ID’s when I started reading but never signed up, and the only time it was ever funny was when someone with one of the new high 6 digit ID’s got snarked by someone with a low 6 digit ID, who got snarked by someone with a mid 5 digit ID, who got snarked by me with my barely 5 digit ID, who got snarked by a couple of 4 digit ID’s, and some guy with a 2 digit ID came along and said something like fucking kids, git orf my lawn.

Of course that had nothing to do with the subject, but it was notable that 10,000 and below, all the snarks were “dude, who gives a fuck what your number is” and all the 50,000 and above were “you will respect mah seniority”

Sadly it isn’t entirely true that the same thing is not true for countries and culture and history, so you have the USA and Australia and New Zealand and Israel, who can lord it over Bosnia as being a newb, then the Chinese guys pops up and says dude, we had fiat currencies 2,000 years ago, and we are still here.

Of course a lot of this depends on who teaches you the histories your learned, in the sixties and seventies in the UK it didn’t matter if you went to a state school or the best private schools, you’d have been taught about the fall of the Roman Empire and the Dark Ages that followed, and yes it was all capitalised like that.

If you were taught at private catholic schools run by monks (I was) you were taught by an organisation that had its own set of records going back 1700 years or so, and you were taught that the Dark Ages were by and large anything but dark, there was plenty of light and intellect floating around, but not being part of Empire it wasn’t formally recorded and tallied.

I had a similar conversation a year or so ago with a newb technology wise, bear in mind I started with BBS’s so I have lived through it all, actually I started with slide rules and log tables, VLSI gave us portable calculators and so on and it moved on from there, so I had used thousand buck acoustic couplers long before I got amazed at 400 buck 900 baud modems and so on.

I also had a very low 5 digit CompuServe account.

From 1990 to around 1995 and Microsoft Windows “Chicago” 95a on 13 floppies “the internet” was in the “Dark Ages” and today it isn’t really possible to explain or demonstrate to anyone what it was like, you were either there, or you weren’t.

As someone who was, those so called “Dark Ages” of the internet were the most exciting and intellectually stimulating period of my life, I really, genuinely, mean that.

Imagine a medium where the barriers to entry were such that corporations could afford to do it, but saw no reason to even if they knew of its existence, and by corporations I do not just mean Ford, I mean advertising and so on.

Imagine a medium where there weren’t any laws of rules, just personal choices, people like Bill Gates liked the idea of IP, lots of others of similar stature didn’t, but nobody was in a position to enforce anything (BTW old billy and MS didn’t “miss out” on “the internet” in the early days, they just didn’t see *any* way to be involved and still protect their IP) and it was a pure anarchy, and I mean that in the most beautiful sense.

I made contact with *lots* of people all over the globe, some of whom are household names now, some of whom are dead now, some of whom are still just regular guys doing their thing… what!!! you have daughters of fuckable age?? what the fuck dude, it was only yesterday you were in your late teens and trying to install Chicago on a 286…

There was a certain “hail fellow, well met” just by dint of the fact that you had managed to get everything working and get yourself online, remember Windows 3.1 was still two years in the future in 1989/90, and people were online BEFORE the whole WWW hypertext thing, so when it came out you’d often use a gateway from the system you were in to this new web stuff.

It was shades of some extra solar planet in a alien system where disgruntled humans has left earth in disgust and gotten themselves to the new planet, by definition of the fact you had got there, everyone else welcomed you as one of them.

Then along came AOL and FreeServe (in the uk) and fucked it all up for everyone, in the name of corporate greed.

Suddenly planet X is flooded with immigrants by the million, and whatever history there was before their arrival is both erased and dismissed, and if it is ever mentioned again it will be the “Dark Ages” before the enlightened ones with their Assholes On Line CD’s turned up. “me too!!!”  lol

And it started, people who has been using usenet for many years got shunted aside by the newbs, I remember well the time in late 95 early 96 where a bunch of (newb) people gathered together to tell me that me and my opinions were no longer welcome in their newsgroup…. when a buddy went to great lengths and posted detailed descriptions and RFD and everything else showing beyond all possible doubt that I was the person who did 99% of the legwork in creating that newsgroup and having it approved and added to the pools worldwide, he was accused of being my “bot” and nobody with a fucking brain would believe all that garbage anyways….  I still stick my head in that group every 12 months or so, it’s totally fucking dead, except for some mental case that is probably one of the original wasters having conversations with himself about past slights he has suffered etc.

(image, 1999 warez app)

Google Groups archival of that stuff is basically non existent, most of the content is gone, I was a small scale ISP back then so I still have *some* of my backups of websites and software and shit from circa 1998-9, but before that it’s all gone and that’s my own stuff, and of course my stash isn’t available online.

So that’s another definition of Dark Ages, if you weren’t there yourself, you can be told absolutely anything about it, and you have no way to fact check any of it.

I could sit here and talk about MasterCard v Microsoft and the very real at the time battle to create true smart cards (eg SOC integrated into credit card form factor) in 1999, and mention words like ultron and java, but where does it leave you? If you yourself haven’t heard of it before, what do you look for (1988 nist doc will help you narrow it down) and why would you even look anyway, given just a single data point, how significant can it be?

I can remember talking to a Russian in around 1988, and I can remember this one because even in a text based medium it comes across quite clearly when the other guy goes from thinking you’re probably a smart guy who just needs some pointers, to thinking you’re a fucking retard, because I’d never heard of a supervolcano, you have heard of yellowstone, yes? well of course, us national park, old faithful and all that, what’s that got to do with this supervolcano stuff….. you were not taught this in school in physical geography lessons???/  ummm, no…..

So maybe that and some other guy talking about planet nbiru is the real reason none of this shit is available today, maybe the dark ages were just a cover up for alien landings and free sex and beer for all.

Or maybe we just discard shit that is not of immediate use, and then what else do you have left but assuming seniority based on time in place?

I got here first, so I know more than you, so shut the fuck up and listen to your betters, newb….

In essence we have created a hierarchical system for ourselves, which is hugely ironic, because back in those now lost Dark Ages of the net such a thing would have been unimaginable in the anarchic free for all that it was, and that we all loved.

Incredibly, left to ourselves and bereft of any kind of laws or control, far from being awash with bomb plans, hardcore kiddie porn and terrorist sedition, I don’t actually remember coming across any of that shit, ever, anywhere, it was only when the AOL’ers started coming on line that some turn digitised the jolly roger cookbook and before you knew it 99 varieties of shit that didn’t work as advertised (obvious to anyone with 3rd year chemistry or physics) was all over th3 place.

Now we have yutube channels full of the modern version of jolly roger, and I have NO interest it crypto-currency, but I suspect it is just more of the same, fun and interesting the first few years, now everyone AOL me too is piling in to cryptocurrency and it’s turning to shit faster than you can say UART.

What will happen to this small corner of wordpress when a goalpost gets moved? It gets deleted and is gone forever as though it never was, and only those who used something like teleport pro to make a local copy will ever know it existed.

And then, how will you know that the copy you are given matches the original? It could so easily be an edited version.

Still, there is always the old / new fallback.

I got here first, fucking newb…

Monday is a bank Holiday here in the UK, for those of you who do not know what that means, it means 99% of everyone has a day off work and those places of work are shut.

Which makes today POETS day, and for those of you who do not know what that means, it’s Piss Off Early, Tomorrow’s Saturday.

The constant harping on every media channel about Musk and Tesla cars and now latterly Tesla Trucks might cause you to wonder, especially as I have mentioned here recently that a consortium including Mitsubishi and Mercedes and others are far further ahead with their own electric trucks, and which one is a truck buyer going to even consider, so why is nobody mentioning Merc/Mitsu?

It’s the same in every field, the guys who buy and operate fleets of trucks do not look in the Daily Fail for info, they have back channels and trade magazines, and may well be blissfully unaware of the MSM Tesla hype, certainly all of them are aware of the Merc / Mitsu electric trucks coming down the line, and certainly anything they are going to buy will be that or a Volvo or a MAN or some such, buying a tesla truck will be the lunchtime joke , so essentially Merc / mitsu don’t give a fuck that the MSM is full of Tesla truck “news” and yet never even mentions their own far more advanced products and plans, and they don’t give a fuck because none of their customers read the MSM.

It reminds me of a second hand story told to me about a swiss money manager, he has a third in gold (phyzz or paper I have no idea) and so on, but the fact is that guy ain’t reading the daily fail either, he will have his own slew of trade rags and sources, and the people that advertise in those sources aren’t interested in the man in the street, because he isn’t their customer.

Last week in the daily fail there is a story about “Supermarket X” selling sausages that give you hepatitise, my *instant* thought was “Tesco” because in a past life (also mentioned here before) I had delivered pallete loads of reject foods to pig farms owned by/for tesco, I mean literall wooden pallets with boxes of reject / damaged fruit polo sweets, crawfords crackers, you name it all in cartons all machine shrink wrapped, and the whole fucking lot, pallettes and all, was fed into industrial shredding machines and fed to the pigs.

The subsequent stories have been largely buried in the MSM, but just before they went there was some blurb about an independent bought and paid for guvvmint scientist saying something to the effect that the identity of supermarket X wasn’t really an issue, as it could have happened to anyone, well, yes, anyone who had such a rapacious addiction to the bottom line that they will feed pigs destined for human consumption on wooden palletes, cellophane, silver paper and sweets… the actual identity of Tesco lasted online about 12 hours, and the entire story has now disappeared.. tesco advertising budget and PR for the win.

Again, nobody in the pig / pork trade learned anything from the MSM, and in the meat trade there is a definite heirarchy, people like my own butcher who raises his own meat on the hoof, down through the commercial places that have their own internal status demarcation between those dealing in red meat and white meat (pork and chicken is white meat) because, you know, they know, white meat is for scum, all the way down to the massive retailer / factory / farm combines like tesco.

It’s why when her indoors wanted a sewing machine my first thought was pfaff, the bastards make industrial automated sewing machines that have to be seen to be believed, and it’s got to the point where the only youtube vids on sewing she can watch are women in their seventies doing freehand quilting and embroidery on 1930’s treadle machines, because everyone else is battling with substandard equipment but they do not know it so they talk about certain materials and techniques being hard to do or work with.

It’s why when it comes to lasers Epilog and Trotec are only known to you if you know nothing about lasers, in which case you’ll think they are the rolls royce, the real professionals are using shit like Mitsu and Bystronic.

It’s why (related this here before too) in 1981/2 ish when I pull up on my Ducati 900 desmo the old farmer opposite expresses surprise, a well known tractor maker was what Ducati was to him, didn’t know they made motorbikes too…. and look at the history of Ducati and motorbikes were always a sideline until recent years in terms of turnover….. as motorcycles were a sideline for BSA for many decades.

BSA = Birmingham Small Arms, if you can line bore gun barrels you can make IC engine barrels..

Trump probably had similar trade mags and channels for his hotel and leisure shit, he won’t have paid any attention to the MSM when deciding to build a new hotel or not, because nobody who read the MSM was ever going to be a customer of his.

All of the above is an essential point.

If all the MSM channels are ignored by everyone making decisions, then nobody viewing the MSM channels is a customer, nobody is a buyer, nobody is making any choices that matter.

At that point the MSM channel in question, such as the Daily Fail, exists only to make a living off those that do not matter.

Stop taking the MSM and you will become totally uninformed about a myriad of matters, and your life won’t be one iota worse off, because none of the stuff they talk about matters.

Yellen et al are NOT going to Jackson Hole to make policy, policy is already made, they are going to Jackson Hole the same reason people go to industry only invite only trade shows, such as the previews of the Merc / Mitsu  electric trucks three years ago now, so the dog can see the rabbit and get the inside info from the horse’s mouth, and vice versa… truck fleet buyer to merc / mitsu, no we don’t give a shit about looks or autopilot or anything else, what’s the cost per mile inc maintenance?… oh yes, and fucking Dunlop are there and on board too, with new rubber especially designed for the unique traction characteristics of electric traction, and Bosch are in there like Gangbusters, and Siemens, and every other fucker.

Nobody there is reading the daily fail or articles about the Tesla truck.

It’s one of the “differentiators” in human life, the Ford Transit (3,500 kg max all up weight) platform is the biggest selling small van in europe and has been a resounding sucess story for decades now.

Nobody, but nobody, running proper commerical wagons will even consider them as anything but a fucking joke, you buy a proper 7,500 kg job on a proper chassis with a proper drivetrain and proper cab and so on, fucking transits are for fucking assholes and lightweights, you can’t make money out of them.

If you run a fleet of 7/5 and 11/13 and 17 ton wagons, nothing makes you happier than seeing the competition buying transits.

Most of the transits on the road have logo’s, DHL and DPD and so on, and the dirty secret, all the drivers are self employed and all the vans are leased (and they tell you uber is evil) so they have you by the short and curlies.

This is the remit of the tesla truck, a very telling story in the Register recently (another tech rag that used to be good but long since disappeared up its own asshole with feminist PC crap and lightweight articles) about HDD vs SSD, everyone at the reg things SSD is the future, so they talk to an industry insider who says, basically, fuck off newb. (yes basically I know the guy)

Goes on to explain annual production of SSD v HDD in exabytes, costs of silicon fabs, single source supplies of platters and heads, the joys of archival and cold (spun down) HDD storage and all the rest, the Reg savages what was said and ignores most of it, and publishes a puff piece basically asking readers for their opinions, and the opinions are the same, the industry insiders doesn’t know what the fuck he is talking about.

Picture above is a gig I had about 10 years ago, about 3/4 of the way through so this is the last 20% or so of the pc’s to be processed, Friends Life bought Axa Insurance, and then went to IBM UK who went to IBM Romania (cheaper) who went to Lenovo and ordered 2,500 desktop PC’s and 500 laptops (400 T series and 100 X series from memory)

You think any of those cunts read El Reg?

Nope, and I know that for a fact because neither the IBM Romania project manager nor the Axa It guy had ever heard of the Reg, because it came up one day in convo, and what happened next was “ah, a funny little tech rag for geeks..” which actually sums it up pretty well.

The last gig I was working fibre backbone stuff all the way down, and fibre backbone stuff is racks of Juniper kit that can easily exceed 1.5 million sterling per rack, and you can easy have ten or fifteen racks like that just for one provider for their regional switching.

Sure, these people all attended trade do’s (insider invite only) and read trade mags, (again insider invite only) but nobody gave a shit about el reg…. when you’re out there at 2 am physically switching fibres back and forth to literally re-route entire regions of the country backbone between primary and failover circuits so you can swap out single juniper cards that cost more than a house, come back and tell me how I wasn’t a fucking “professional” or wasn’t at the cutting edge or anything or wasn’t a fucking “serious” player, mainly because I lacked certification up the wazoo…

There aren’t many people (staitstically speaking) in the UK who even know where these places are, much less who have been the sole flesh and blood guy moving fibres (which means data and voice and even telly channels) for several million corporate and private customers, Virgin had 8 regions so you’re switching 12.5% of their entire network, and those places were manned 24/7 by virgin staff, who were *not* assholes, but who also were not permitted to touch that shit.

Trump, for all his faults, isn’t wrong when he calls the MSM “fake news”, and he isn’t talking to you and me when he says it, he is talking to movers and shakers, he is saying nobody who means anything gives a shit what the MSM says, and he is saying it to people who mean something, not anyone else.

You and I may not be suckling from the MSM tit, but that still doesn’t mean that the likes of Trump are talking to ***US***….

So, the tearing down of statues continues across the globe, it’s a universal thing apparently, which only leaves a few possibilities;

1. it’s centrally controlled and orchestrated
2. it’s entirely natural / cusp / meme / come of age idea
3. it’s monkey see, monkey do
4. all of the above
5. it’s entirely independent and none of the groups are aware of any of the others or any other statues being pulled down, eg independent origination.

A rational being is going to eliminate #5 because there is no evidence to support it, and all the evidence we do have suggests it spread in line with MSM reporting, and the delays in the spread would tend to suggest #3 being more likely than #1 which would have made it simultaneous across the globe.

I don’t know dick about ISIS but I did know some people who were part of the IRA (Ireland) and others who were part of ETA (Spain), and the common theme there was there was no real central organisation or command chain, what there was was very informal, and you got a lot of guys in location A talking about those bastards in location B trying to tell us what to do.

That makes terrorist groups #2 with a sprinkling of #1 on top.

#3 gets remedied either with a media blackout, or a media splurge on all the statue eradicators swinging from lamp posts.

White guy in a black merc trying to navigate past LGBTQ+ lives matter assholes blocking an intersection, assholes start beating on his car, he pushed through, 3 assholes are “injured” but not to the extent any of them want to go to hospital for treatment, white guy gets arrested a block away…

Which number would you pick for that?

Interestingly I’m seeing signs of the more loosely wrapped whites going off on solo “death to all ragheads” thing, which is how the raghead terrorsm started, the odd crazy asshole running around with a knife.

We can add 2 and 2 and join the dots to see where this is going to go… just by looking in the rear view mirror…

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, pray that a significant small proportion of whites do not go off the deep end, because if they do they will make everyone else look like the angel of mercy and light.

The *chances* of a significant small proportion of white not going off the deep end is a set of odds that get slimmer every day.

A couple of weeks later #4 will kick in and you’ll have war, and the kind of war where people will wish to go back to the good old days of madame guillotine and the nazi stormtroopers.

In other news an unfuckably ugly tub of lard with an obvious psycho face just got ten years for multiple FRA’s, I see guys celebrating this, but the fact is she is the token nigger, “see, we do jail wimminz for making FRA claims” while also ensuring that said wimminz is so fat, ugly, psycho and so on that 99.999% of wimminz will not identify her, so it’s not actually a good thing or a sign of the tide turning, it is a sign of the continuing demonisation of all men generally and all white men particularly.

I’ve just paid 350 semolians for a chinese linear motion job, 800 mm travel, 16 mm dia 5 mm pitch ballscrew, couple of hywin rails, bearing blocks and so on, and a nema 23 stepper 24 volt 3 amp, all sold and shipped as an assembled whole, I’ll report back on how it looks when it lands, but it looks good enough I did buy it.

Bit of a jump from fugly lying skanks to chinese CNC shit, but not so much, a society can either foster engineering and manufacturing, or it can foster engineered fake victimhood and manufactured lies, guess which way the west is, and it’s only going to get worse because the wheels are wobbling on all sorts of wagons.

A few days ago I drove over the M5 bridge at Bristol,

https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.4883958,-2.707332,1352m/data=!3m1!1e3?hl=en

All those car park areas were 100% chock full of brand new imported cars just off the ships, bear in mind August is new car registration plate for the next year month in the UK, so by far the peak selling period.

Down by me one of the local industrial estates is mainly car dealers, and all you can see anywhere is the new personal leasing deals written on the side of the cars, eg “This car £149 a month” and nothing is shifting…

https://www.bristolstreet.co.uk/new-car-deals/ford/mondeo/

I can get a new Ford Mondeo for £329 a month, that means in two months I’ll have paid more than I paid in total cash for the volvo shed that I’ve been running for two years now without a single fault… bargain..

… lloyds bank have just sent me a letter saying that from November overdraft fees are going up…. to 1p for every £7 I borrow for a full day… a penny is nuffink innit…. but a 500 quid over draft for 30 days is 30 x (500/7) = £21.43

And of course 21.43 / 500 = 4.286%, per month, which works out at 65.4% APR

But don’t worry, the economy is great and interest rates aren’t going up on your loans and mortgages, oh no…

Listen up, when one of the biggest high street banks LITERALLY starts selling 65% APR overdraft rates to people as “only 1p per £7 borrowed per day” (eg the old ruinous 34% APR credit card cost is nearly half the price of a fucking overdraft) then you know the shit is already hitting the fan somewhere, and the news will hit the common man in the street anywhere from 90 to 270 days from now.

The smart money already moved.

I now have a £1,300 overdraft facility that sits unused…. and a £500 credit card facility that has been used to the tune of 350 for the linear stage, just for the CC purchasing protection, which will be rotated and cleared within 30 days.

These cunts are NOT going to be kind and considerate and compassionate with any poor bastard that owes them money…

They are going to fuck you up the ass with no lube.

I don’t have any money, I just don’t have any fucking debt either, so I only spend what I earn….

… talked here before about bikes and age and shit, just reinsured the harley for another year (2 x motorcycles and 2 x automobiles in the stable) and this is an 02 job and it cost me £106 for one year fully comprehensive with a compulsory 350 quid excess, and the hoops I had to jump through on the website to pay it in full, they really really really wanted me to pay monthly so the cunts could get a direct debit mandate, and you know they NEVER fuck up and take money they shouldn’t… of course the monthly payment makes it easier to upsell me the breakdown ins for “only” 4.95 a month, so they reckon breakdown on the bike is worth 60% of the best possible level of insurance cover for the bike…

… cunt I know who lives in a city 120 miles away, when I tell him I just renewed the bike insurance for 106 quid and some pennies, says to me, please fucking tell me that’s per month… which kinda tells you all you need to know about the risk premiums of living in a city in 2017.

I shit you not, I am ever so slightly worried, not because I own everything I have outright, not because I have precisely zero debts or loans or credit or anything else, but because I do have a few thousand pounds in the bank, and it could be “bailed in” and taken.

That’s quite a telling situation for anyone to find themselves in in 2017 in the west.

Just an example of three things that are always sought (reasonable sane calm pleading mode on…) by people who know that without them, their own shit would be subjected to the whim of other people’s CHOICE to be free and tolerant and equal to them.

The world is full of people who will start off by saying “I defend your right to….” and the truth is, they have never defended or stood up for anything their entire lives.

So I’m not going to sit here and say “I defend”

I *am* going to sit here and say I don’t have a problem with you if you want to cover your body with tattoos, for example.

I am also going to sit here and say that I do not have a problem if someone else wants to give you a job as a sales droid in a cafe or anywhere else.

You, collectively, better not have a fucking problem with me choosing not to be served by someone that looks like they escaped from an ink convention, or from someone who employs such people.

And now we get down to the root of everyone who ever lived on the planet and pleaded and preached tolerance and equality, THE VERY FIRST THING THEY WANT TO SACRIFICE is my own freedom to make my own choices.

I’m a small business man, I have customers that aren’t white, I don’t care, their money is green, as the saying goes, and they are free to shop anywhere they want, if the do or do not choose to shop with me, that is their choice.

On the flipside, I do not employ anyone who is black or brown or female, I do not shop with anyone who is black or brown or female, and if you want to call me a racist misogynist motherfucker, go right ahead, if you want to ask me how that comes about and becomes self sustaining, I’ll tell you.

It’s easier, faster, and less hassle, I always get what I want, I’m in and out with no hassle, if I’m not in a rush I can shoot the shit and nobody complains about my language or attitude, and they are basically good people that I can go to and say guys I need some half mil thick 100 mil dia polished 304 stainless disks cut, I’m not in a rush, I’m not going to tell you how to do it, I can come and collect them, and here is 100 quid, just do me as many as you can, and call me when you’re done… and four days later I have 400 *perfect* pieces cut and individually wrapped in workshop blue tissue.

That would not have happened if I had been dealing with wogs or wimminz, life is too short to explain why, but the fact is it only happens when dealing with white men, *some* white men, so there is always always always an “opportunity cost” in dealing with wogs and kikes and wimminz, why should I burden myself with that?

Here in the UK we had a thing called YTS, or Youth Training Service, it probably still exists under another name, basically the state paid you the wages of a young person so you could employ that young person for six months at no payroll cost, and the young person got industry experience.

The reality was they all made tea or stacked shit.

I’m free to joke that the only wimminz I will employ will be some young girl with big tits on a YTS scheme, it’s a good joke, it’s good because it amuses me.

The reality is what are the chances the YTS would supply a kid who actually wanted to learn, zero, so it ends there.

The business has been running properly a couple of years now, it has a great website that tell you everything you need to know, in that time I have had three “cold call” enquiries from people seeking employment or training or work experience.

1/ was a mid forties guy who has loads of experience in the laser industry, but who managed to send me a three page letter that did not signify any single point that made me think he had ever actually operated a laser or associated software, in fact I was left with the impression that he thought the company had 50 employees and there might be some managerial or sales role going… seeing as the website in question also has an associated blog that gets posted to every week or so, it was obvious he has not read the blog, letter into recycle bin, ignore.

2/ was a uni student girl asking for work experience and, along with current guidelines, sending me a three page letter bigging herself up, I was sat there twiddling my thumbs for three hours watching a job, so I took the time to reply, explaining clearly and concisely how the world looks from an employers perspective, and everything she was doing wrong… I never heard back.

3/ was a young person, I forget now if it was male or female, but it was a form letter from someone desperately keen to work in the industry, bigging themselves up academically, but nothing there that made me want to reply, round filing cabinet.

Now, on the one hand, I can’t actually afford any additional employees at the moment, machinery is more productive than staff, and staff can run more than one machine at once, so extra machinery (and the workshop space to install it, a whole other question) is first on my list of priorities.

So let’s set that to one side and say the staff are free, they work for nothing, well, I still can’t give them a job, because to be any use at all, you have to have an easy familiarity with a bunch of CAD software, an easy familiarity with mechanical stuff, good with computers and fundamental understanding of cnc, etc etc etc etc etc.

Sure, I can TRAIN you in all that, but who is going to pay me to do that?

My dad was apprenticed back in the day, age 15, and his mum and dad had to pay his employers for the first year, (and his books and day release tuition at college one day a week) the second year he got peanuts, the third year he got a basic wage, the fourth year he got a basic plus wage, and the fifth year he was qualified and experienced and on a pretty good wage, or he would have been, except for national service, (deferred up to then as an apprentice) which meant he went to Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers on draft and got sent to Singapore, which changed his outlook from the country bumpkin somewhat.

But the point still stands, even an apt and diligent apprentice is a fucking burden for the first year at least.

I often tell people, I’m the youngest person you’ll ever meet who had an old fashioned apprenticeship, old fashioned meant the guy you were apprentice to could beat some sense into your skull, or respect, or anything else he saw fit, and if you think you are a hard man because you kicked *everyone*s ass down at the school or local dojo or wherever, the skinny old cunt who has been wielding tools for 20 years has a thing or two to teach you.

Of course it’s all appalling and disgusting and testosterone fuelled and anachronistic, and none of it was necessary to learn… well, I walked in those shoes mother fucker, you didn’t… I learned a trade, you didn’t… your opinion on what was needed means as much to me as a sparrow’s fart in the wind… quite apart from anything else, quite apart from what I learned, quite apart from the trade skills themselves, I have a body free from defects or major scars or missing bits, and I can say that nobody else suffered any of that because of anything I was doing or working on either, and that alone makes all those “hard” lessons worthwhile. (you either get where I am coming from with that one, brother, or you don’t… if you walked in those shoes you get it, if you didn’t you never will)

You can all for freedom and tolerance and equality all you want, rotating machinery is a stone cold bitch, so is laser energy, it’s looking for ways to fuck you up and bypass your defences 24/7.

Youtube lathe accidents if you want.

Your freedoms and tolerance and tatts and all your other shit put together doesn’t even mean nothing to a meat grinder, in fact it all makes you about 1,000 times more likely to get drawn into one.

At approaching 60 years of age, let me tell you something, go look at those youtube lathe accident vids, know what I see and think.

Stupid cunt, now someone else has to clean all that shit up and re-check all ways and tooling for straightness and accuracy and maybe even re-do the job you were doing from scratch.

We won’t go to your funeral, or speak to your wife or kids, or anything else, because all we can see is a stupid cunt, what we are concerned about is what stupid cunt gave THAT dead stupid cunt the job, and of he is in our line of command, it’s time to talk with the boss, he walks or I do.

number of times I have seen that happen, some dork gets wiped out on a job and half a dozen staff walk two days later, and all the assholes think it is in solidarity with the dead guy, fuck no, they are just transferring out of that shit hole.

That was always my canned response when some management asshole complained, there are the keys / vehicle / equipment, now either you can show me how it’s done, or you can leave me to do my job…. most did neither and I’d hand in my notice… btw my saved up holiday pay means seeya… but what about our primo customers order??? you’re the expert, you fucking fulfil it.

The real problem is this, humanity comes in two varieties, there are engineers, and there is everyone else.

Talk to an engineer about freedom and tolerance and equality, it’s not a problem, we have those words in our lexicon, and we understand them intimately, freedom of movement or rotation, yup, but we can’t have more than a thou end float when up to temp and rotation is defined both in degrees and accelerations and loads, same goes for tolerances, we want to know about finishes too, and what other things are going to meet / touch / interface with those things, so you want 2 micron tolerances on the mains and fuck it 50 or 60 is good enough for the bearings? that right??… equality is a given mr newton.

It always breaks down because everyone else who isn’t an engineer doesn’t like that, and when I say *that’ specifically I mean CONSEQUENCES, do you want bluetooth climate control euro ncap 5 star, or 100 mpg 1 passenger max and 0-60 in never?

Choose.

And that ultimately is what it always comes down to, people want to be free to make choices while simultaneously being freed and protected from all the consequences. If consequences are ever shown to them, they start wailing and crying that they would never have made those choices if only the consequences were truly explained to them, what, do you think they are nuts?

Explaining the consequences is of course rayciss or something…. basically it’s illegal and *you* will get punished for it.

So when you come to me and ask for work, and my response is “Fuck off, you are fucking unemployable” it isn’t because you are LGBTQ+ or because I am a rayciss white nazi misogynist bastard, or because you are female or black or ugly or have small tits.

It’s because you do not have an engineering mind set, and you think that choices and consequences can be separated.

Engineer joke.

What’s the difference between a lorry load of babies, and a lorry load of marbles?

You can’t unload the marbles with a pitchfork.

Butcher, Cooper, Smith, Miller, Plowman, Shepherd, Stoneman, Woods, Fish, Brewer, Tanner, Baker, and I could go on and on and on…

… all fine old English surnames, all fine old trades, when we had such things as trades and tradesmen and “you are what you do” because unlike for example many of the nordic peoples that traced genealogy with magnus’s son and ingrids dottir as surnames, we used to go by trades and guilds, you were what you did.

We’d be fucked today, hi, I’m John Checkout-Colleague, oh hi, very pleased to meet you, I’m Steve do you want fries with that…. and allow me to introduce my friend, Mike government mcjob.

Everything you are told in the media is a fucking lie, even if there was once a grain of truth in there somewhere, everything you are told is a fucking lie.

Mary Greely (sp?) has a youtube channel and amongst other things she tracks yellowstone caldera seismic activity, in this at least she is fairly earnest, fairly honest, and fairly sincere, however, for all any of us knows she could be tracking it for the next thousand years and nothing happens, or it could already have happened as I type this and I’m just not aware of it yet.

Neither outcome is influenced by her watching it, and if it did happen tomorrow, you can’t even really claim she predicted it all, because she didn’t, she is just watching and reporting on something that nobody has sufficient data about to make cast iron predictions.

As the next messiah, Mary Greely is a failure, because she chose a subject that doesn’t really lend itself to future claims of omniscience.

The works of man however make a much better subject for any wannabe messiah.

It is a matter of extensive printed record that I stated, repeatedly, and in detail, and quite accurately, everything that was wrong with Pete Goss’s ill fated catamaran, and I started saying it before the boat itself was anything more than a design concept.

But, it wasn’t much of a reach, I knew Goss was a worthless publicity seeking cunt of no real talent, he had precisely zero skills as a boat builder or designer, nobody involved in the actual construction or design did either, not really, not if you know anything about naval architecture and construction, and of course lots of people never got paid, and of course the stupid bows broke, and of course the publicity seeking Goss endangered crew lives and abandoned a ship that was still afloat and drifting as a hazard to navigation weeks later.

And of course nobody was to blame.

Goss Interactive, a digital spin off, is still running and trading in Plymouth, they are still shit and none of the original people involved in building the Team Philips boat have ever seen one red cent of the money they are still owed.

I could say the same pretty much the same sort of shit about Elon Musk and Tesla.

This is the sort of subject matter you need to choose if you are going to proclaim yourself a messiah.

Or you can just take controlling interests in the media, or retail, or banking, or anything you like, and since you control the narrative via your controlling interests, you can just declare yourself a messiah, even though you never did anything or chose any subject matter to be right about.

Carly Fiorina, fucking genius, nobody can tell me why, but she is a fucking genius none the less, Ben Bernanke, Mario Draghi, Mutti Merkel, more of the same, all fucking geniuses.

I’m reminded of a Jasper Carrot (english / brummie comedian) sketch, in which he talks about a now defunct soap opera from the days where shit was filmed and broadcast live, by the name of Crossroads, set in a motel of all places.

Once of the central characters was a wooly hat wearing simpleton with a big heart by the name of Benny, who was the odd job man about the place, and his unrequited and platonic love for Miss Diane, one of the staff.

Carrot says, “Benny troubles me, is he really that retarded? Because if he isn’t, he’s a fucking good actor… and what’s a fucking good actor doing on Crossroads???”

And it is a good point, but we can substitute Benny for any of the above, and Crossroads for any of the above, and the conundrum is still valid.

I know what a very good actor *is*, it is someone who can play many many many parts equally excellently and credibly, with little or no cross pollination or common traits or mannerisms.

I don’t know enough about acting to be able to name any very good actors, every one that I can name isn’t, Captain Kirk as TJ Hooker, etc etc etc

Being a messiah about the impending economic / housing / debt crash isn’t much easier, not because you’re wrong, but because it’s hard to make anyone consider anything that costs them money, and for most people, the past 20 years have been the fat of the land, so Messiah’s get ridiculed and then shot.

He’s not the messiah, he’s a very naughty boy.

Being a sell out and cashing in is easy, anyone can do it, in fact basically everyone from the top down for the past twenty or thirty years HAS been doing it.

*SOMEONE* is going to get burned alive in the streets for it, the problem being that said scapegoats are far more likely to be the likes of thee and me, rather than those who were part of the problem, because the greatest ire is always reserved for those who were fucking right, and who positioned themselves not to be taken down with the sinking ship.

Meanwhile of course the “news” is full of tales of sexual deviancy, racist soap dispensers, and of course the latest aloha snackbar jihadi events all over europe, none of which are connected, associated with the religion of peace, soros, or anything else.

But huzzah, we have a brand new pink elephant H^H^H^ air craft carrier, shame about the aircraft, they are still awaiting software licences and windows updates before they can fly, still, makes a lovely target and plenty of pork and window dressing……

You know when I was a boy, for those retarded enough to be into superhero shit, at least it was fucking superhero shit, as in masculine and singular, wazzat, the evil russian criminal mastermind has an army of 10,000 and nuclear bombs?????

No problem, send in one male superhero to sort that shit out.

Nowadays it takes a fucking team, it’s a bit like old JC needing to team up with the noodly spaghetti monster, buddha, Zeus and Pelosi, before being able to throw the money lenders out of the temple.

Next week the United States of America will be renamed the United States of Benetton / Diversity, because that fucking Amerigo Vespucci mother fucker was a slave owning spick who used to beat wimminz, and coincidentally all US Dollars will be worthless overnight… yippeee… Keynesian wet dreams, the window is broken on BOTH sides.

Yay, go Red / Blue team, everything is the fault of Blue / Red team anyway, roll up, roll up, for another spectcular show…..

I laughed, I had an email from a long time on off contact / friend, they now work fairly high up in a well known international company, and they just had a board meeting about this very subject.

The irony is “We have lost our direction” doesn’t help you one iota, nor does it eliminate much of note, am I talking about Apple, or Google, or HP, or IBM, or a political party, or a big chain high street retailer, or a game studio, or a nation?

Choices are always difficult things, there are the choices we can make easily with what we have, the choices that are harder because they involve risk, and the choices that simply aren’t available, and much of human effort seems to be devoted shifting risky choices into the mind set that they are either easy or unavailable.

The Charlotte “nazi” is a case in point, everyone had cameras out, there are drones and everything, so there should be a wide choice of video clips that run for a few minutes prior to the event leading right up to the event, there should be, but all we see are the final moments.

Meanwhile any forum you care to look at is inhabited by posters denouncing the white trash nazi scum, and an aching silence from the ever increasing numbers of people like me, who do not post, who do not know what happened because we weren’t there, but who have learned to distrust the media narrative to such an extent that we believe most of it is false, even if actual facts are reported, they are taken out of context and slanted with false narratives.

However there are a few who do post a contrary opinion, and whether it is the recent google emigre or Breivik, for every one who read the original letter / post / manifesto, there are 100,000 who do not need to, to know exactly what was said and abuse anyone who disagrees with their own extremist dialogue on the matter.

The google emigre actually made a lot of very good points in his letter, and they form a very good basis for a rational intellectual discussion, the problem is, nobody wants a rational intellectual discussion any more, they just want to belong to some sort of self appointed “moral majority” of “right thinking people” so that by definition if you ain’t with them, you are agin, them, and by definition an immoral minority that needs to be eradicated.

Many of us are rightly appalled if I start talking about average UK children of 11 and 12 and 13 years old who do not know *any* of their times tables, not even their two times table.

Yet that’s easy to do because none of us are 11 or 12 or 13, so we are talking about “others”

Attitudes change when I talk in the same way about adults who are unaware that compound interest is an exponential function, because most of us are adults and most adults have no idea what an exponential function, but they are pretty sure I’m trying to make them look stupid.

I shrug, ignorance can be cured, stupidity cannot, choose your hat and wear it well.

I can’t help you with your choices, I only make the easy ones with what I have before me, and by definition what I have before me is not what you have before you.

The risky choices I always tried to avoid, because the danger that they posed to altering the content of “what I have before me” for the future.

The non available choices never troubled me greatly.

Without exception, whenever I meet someone who tells me I am “lucky” it is someone who habitually made choices that involved risk, the risk of detection, the risk of plans not coming to fruition, the risk of not being able to meet a commitment or undertaking, and almost invariably it is never their fault, it is the fault of whoever advised them.

So while the msm and world & dog get on the bandwagon to denounce nazis based on the alleged actions of one white supremacist, I observe that no real white supremacist would have been anywhere near that shit, in other words, it’s all smoke and fury, signifying nothing, because these are not the droids you are looking for… the real white supremacists have not spoken yet.

They’re still invisible in the background noise, and will remain so until they are forced to, given no easy choices any more.

After getting on for sixty years of life I have come to realise something.

Some people (me for example) aren’t really driven to any great extent by anything internal (for which I am grateful) there is some stuff there but it is all fairly low level.

Some people are, and it varies from person to person what that thing is, it could be sex, it could be booze, it could be drugs, it could be body modification, it could be making money, it could be being famous, it could be a cause, it could be risky behaviour, it could be almost anything.

There is enough evidence of behaviour modifiers, TG in cat piss for example, whether they be parasitic or chemical or physical or other, that it isn’t a big leap to stand me next to Bill Gates and say that an important difference isn’t the billions in the bank, it’s how they came to be, Bill was obsessive and driven from puberty onwards, I wasn’t.

Thankfully for Bill and many others his obsession was fairly benign, he wasn’t driven to be a Madoff for example.

Of course being driven to do a thing doesn’t mean you are any fucking good at it, it just means you can’t leave it alone… I know someone who has spent the last thirty years (we’ll call him Joe Smith) throwing all his spare time and money at Joe Smith Racing, and the truth is he is as fucking useless today as he was when he started 30 years ago, he came 4th, once, years ago when the rest of the field has a massive pile up and there were only 5 finishers, #5 has a broken track rod and finished on a rim and sparks.

Yes, Joe is driven to compete and to try to win, and 30 years of abject failure hasn’t dampened that one bit, none of it holds a candle to the prospect of not racing any more while he is still physically able to, that’s what scares the crap out of Joe.

I know other people who were driven the same way to the poker table, others who were driven the same way to fucking, others to owning clothes, and to be fair to Joe 30 years of winning wouldn’t have helped him any, he can’t resist the game, the winning or losing isn’t the issue, the being a player or a spectator is.

The Joe’s of this world, and there are a fuckton of them out there, are automatons, the only darwinian aspect to them is there is such variety in the demons that drive them, all the racing drivers will get killed by the tsunami, all the microlight pilots will survive it, but individually they are incapable of adapting and learning and overcoming.

Genetically speaking it is the males of the species, XY, that are responsible for genetic evolution, the wimminz, XX, not so much, so it’s no wonder we can easily identify the driven in the wimminz so much easier.

The males like Paul stand out because being males they will channel Spinal Tap and turn that amp up to 11, because they can, so it’s the males that have the vinyl LP and 70’s stereo equipment emporiums, the comic emporiums, the workshop full of obscure machinery, the collections of every game cartridge ever made for the 2600, the model railways, and so on.

Guy I know, just a working stiff, he’s into RC planes, but his RC planes run jet turbines, each one costs more than his old car, and each one needs a major and expensive rebuild every 3-500 hours, he laughs, he knows it’s insane, but he doesn’t care.

Then there’s me and machinery and tools, they are all toys to me, I’m still 7 years old really, it’s fucking great…lol

But me and many others, it’s not an obsession on the side that dominates our lives, I play with my toys enough to earn enough money so I don’t have to get a proper bring job.

Joe has a proper boring job he works all hours at so he can afford his obsession.

Bill Gates had a job that was his obsession, and against all the odds he didn’t burn himself out and die of a heart attack at 30, so even if he hadn’t founded Microsoft, BG would have been a very rich man, because his obsession was really business and making deals… he just happened to be a fairly talented hacker too.

I was fortunate in many ways that sex was never an obsession for me, I could want it as much as the next guy, but I could be distracted from that want by something interesting, and I could ignore that want and push it into the background if it just wasn’t possible (sailing oceans on small boats on your lonesome or with one other guy who wasn’t a fag either..)

I was unfortunate in many ways because riding motorcycles was an obsession for me, caused me a lot of trouble, and took 20 years for it to work its way through my system, I’ve got a mint harley outside I haven’t swung a leg over in 4 weeks, it calls to me every day, but other shit takes precedence, which would never have happened 20 years ago.

I could say the same about drinking or doing drugs, at one point I was a fucking demon for it, but I got it out of my system, so I don’t think I can class myself along side the like of Joe, who it just never gets old for.

2017 I learned something new about myself, I accidentally dosed myself up with a drug that had side effects I wasn’t aware of.

http://www.ehealthme.com/ds/acyclovir/libido-decreased/

Bottom line I used to wake up with a partial stiffy every day, but I haven’t had a “hammer a nail into a board” stiffy for six months since I started taking it… I stopped taking it a month ago, and there are gradual signs of a return to normality so I guess that shit is fat soluble too.

Here’s the funny thing, I’m not sure I actually miss it that much, the closest example I can give is something else I have mentioned here before, years ago, pissed off with dentists ass raping my wallet, I elected to have a full dental clearance, it took years for my brain to adapt, I knew where they all used to be and it felt odd they were no longer there, and that’s about as close as I can explain the loss of libido.

I met another guy who had the same symptoms, it was incredible, he’s popping Viagra like M&M’s and is on testosterone patches too, the loss of his throbbing erect manhood is a direct affront to his whole idea of self.

Of course in my own case, I have a scientific mind, sure, the meds were a contributing factor, but the fact is there are a bunch of other environmental things (got a new air filter coming for some of the machinery, up till now been breathing that shit in.. plus COFFEE!!!) , and there are a bunch of mental social things (bitchez be getting unfuckable) so it’s hard to find a smoking gun, and I’m always a bit leery of side effects, testosterone patches can promote asshole cancer in men etc etc.

Taken as a part of the whole scheme of things and general health and wellbeing, I can’t say the loss of libido troubles me much, gawd knows my cock has gotten me in enough trouble fucking psycho skanks I’d have been better off avoiding, so to sum up this is why I say I was never driven by demons

I’m not the Led Zep tribute band that can only play stairway and black dog.

But I do see around me so many automatons driven by demons, and not a single one of em has a fucking brain in their head, which makes sense, no point having a functioning brain if you are just gonna do the same shit all your life no matter what.

And of course when we talk about society and culture and civilisation and technology and war and collapse, we have to remember that we are talking about collections of individuals, most of whom are driven by some demon or another.

I actually know someone who when being presented with the possibility of the USA basically being wiped out by Yellowstone is looking at his collection of certified genuine touched / worn / used by the king himself elvis stuff as something that will vastly increase in significance, since by his reckoning 83% of that “important genuine artifact” stuff is in the USA, and it will all be destroyed, and yes, he is driven by the elvis demon.

I think, with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight, that some of the scrapes and some of the skanks I did get involved with, I would have avoided, had I considered the whole thing about being possessed from the perspective I currently hold.

An impossibility I know, but an interesting technical mental exercise.

I type this from the south west of England, that probably isn’t that significant, but I have known this area directly since the 1960’s and indirectly through family lore and photos since the 1930’s.

In that period the industry in the region was hard rock tin mining (cornwall) open cast china clay mining (cornwall) open cast ball clay mining (devon) fishing (devon and cornwall) agriculture (devon and cornwall) and associated supporting industries and trade… and a bit of tourism.

Since then, “when I were a lad, all this used to be fields” can be said of pretty much anywhere..

https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@49.9697912,-5.2010104,661m/data=!3m1!1e3?hl=en is the southernmost town on the mainland british isles, there is nothing even remotely near it, yet it is now literally 5 to 7 times the size it was in 1980, and the same is true of almost literally everywhere down here.

The mining has long gone, the fishing fleets have long gone, agriculture has long gone and what’s left has been *utterly* decimated employment wise by mechanisation, and of course all the supporting industries (Holman being just one example, 3,500 employees to none) are long gone.

WHAT THE FUCK DO ALL THESE PEOPLE DO???!!!???

You can’t drive anywhere and be very far away from a B&Q, a Aldi, a KFC, a Dunelm, a Tesco, a local council office, a local hospital, a Boots, a Pizza Hut, but ALL of these including the hospitals are fucking SERVICE INDUSTRIES, there is no wealth being generated, nothing is being made, nothing is being extracted, nothing is being improved, WHERE IS ALL THE FUCKING MONEY COMING FROM????

I am being 100% serious, I DO NOT FUCKING GET IT, where the fuck did the money come from to build and buy all these houses, what the fuck do all these people do, does anyone know anyone personally who actually fucking produces something?

I have been thinking about this on and off for a year or two, and I can’t come to any other conclusion, I can’t wrap my head around any other concept, I can’t grasp any shred of anything that I am missing, I can’t even come close to joining the dots or balancing the books, I can’t hold it in my head long enough for it to not just evaporate away long before I can begin to perceive it.

And as the saying goes, when you have eliminated everything else, what you are left with, however improbable or unpalatable, is what you are left with.

All I am left with is the whole thing being a monstrous ponzi scheme con on a scale so many orders of magnitude beyond anything else in human history that it borders on the human mind trying to work with and understand the distances between stars and galaxies, we basically can’t, none of us can, we don’t have the wetware.

And almost everything in every one of those shops, or used by one of those service providers, is not made here in the UK, precious little of it is even made in greater europe.

We are told by geniuses everywhere that the fucking chinese are the losers here, they have our worthless paper, and we have nothing to sell to them in exchange for it.

I have along side the usual mix of spanners and sockets in everything from metric to AF to whitworth etc etc etc, compressors, a small lathe (cnc’d by me) a small vertical mill (cnc’d by me) vacuum pump, grinders of various sorts, taps and dies of all varieties, a c02 laser, a fibre laser, a mig welder, hydraulic tools, flowmeter, die chasers, reamers, the list goes on and on and on.

I can have that and 14 squillion in digital fiat hargesian goat bollocks, and the 14 squilion can evaporate overnight weimar style but it’s all 0’s and 1’s so I can’t even burn it or wipe my ass with it, and I will still have all those tools and the capacity that they give me.

Europe can disappear up it’s own ass tomorrow and the chinese (to name but one) will still have all that engineering capacity.

This is where I part with all the illuminati / rothschild / joo world order stuff, because they are all here in europe, and they are as welcome in china as a nigger at a KKK barbecue, it doesn’t make sense.

Soros / Gates / Musk’s billions can get wiped out tomorrow, Weimar style, what do you have to offer the guy with the manufacturing tools?

The vast might of the US military industrial complex is in fact as fragile as old Adolf’s tanks as they blitzkrieg’d across europe, it was a race to the next fuel source and a race against breakdowns, and it could so easily have collapsed in total disarray at any point and pretty much ended the war early right there and then, and this was back in the day when all you needed was Krupp steel and nothing was higher tech than the odd thermionic valve, and they were so fragile nobody relied on them for anything vital… runners on motorcycles carrying paper orders in leather pouches won the day.

We do not live in those times any more.

I was in Abu Dhabi and Dubai in the mid seventies, both were little more than smelly ports with a few more modern concrete buildings around and roads with pavements that went nowhere and lead to nothing.

Eggs were flown in, newspapers were flown in, anything that wasn’t fresh or time critical like toilet paper and doors and hinges and carpets and electrical wiring was shipped in.

FUCKING GASOLINE AND DIESEL AND LUBRICANTS were shipped in, fucking electric power plants were shipped in, to power the drilling rigs that were shipped in, which were manned by staff that were shipped in.

There was nothing there but sun and sand and salt waters and some resources below the ground, it wasn’t a “self starter” economy, it was all imported.

To this day Abu Dhabi and Dubai are the same, sun sand and salt water, nothing to make concrete from, no iron ores to dig up and refine, no farm land to grow anything on, no rich oceans to fish, they can’t even autonomously extract and refine their own oil… and it has oh so many parallels to this south west corner of England, the populations have exploded, housing is everywhere, service industries are everywhere, the only exception / difference is they are at least extracting and selling a valuable mineral resource in large volumes.

My grandfather rode a camel, and my grandson will ride a camel.

Because when the oil stops it’s game over.

Tourism is based on cheap oil for jet fuel, sand is worthless, and solar panels would have to be imported and they don’t last that long, and transmission of electrical power over *long* distances of 1,000 km or more is a lossy fucking business.

What else is there?

I could content myself, as could a modern arab born to the right family, by saying hell we still have fantastic arable land here, and so on and so forth… but it doesn’t survive even a moment’s analysis, it’s not whether the land or the sea can be made to produce more than they do today, it is what the fuck are all these useless cunts going to be doing in the meantime?

Apart from rioting to eat?

My take is the yanks took a long view on the norks, back in the 50’s china was all slanty eyed little fucks and paddy fields, russia was russia but so what, fuck the japs, they got nuked 5 years ago and are still glowing, and basically the entire korean peninsula and it’s righ mineral resources was a trust fund stashed away until it was needed 40 or 50 years in the future.

The south koreans are already extracting their bit, so the norks are going to get sliced up between them and the chinese and the russians, the yanks won’t even get the crumbs off the table.

Ok, well, there is still africa, well, not so much, the chinese have been going into africa for 20 years now, but we never hear about it because they never recruit white men in london and new york to go over there and run shit, it’s all chinese labour and management, the local niggers can carry shit on their backs if they like..

The arabs should have bought australia… or at least the western half of it.

UK / France / Portugal / Germany should never have let go of any of their colonies, wipe out the locals if necessary, but never let that shit go.

But we never got any of that, instead we got outsourcing, we get being white is to be rayciss and privileged, being male even more so, being financially conservative and prudent meant you lost out, being a tradesman or artisan or producer meant you were the lowest paid, we got endlessly kicking the can down the road, we got Tesco and Walmart and Amazon.

Now we are being told one of the last great battles will be between Walmart and Amazon, except, no, not really, and it certainly won’t be a Graf Spee and honour and dignity, it will be the shot that rings out in serbia/croatia as the archduke ferdinand falls, like the grand old duke of york, an anachronism that was dead from the neck up long before it became dead from the neck down, and then we will really start to party.

The Walmarts and Amazons and tesco all have to die, and inevitably take millions of worthless feeders with them, before the next thing.

The new wolfenstien game would have been so much better if they lost the crap german accents and swastikas and low brow IQ’s, and instead the invaders were the people’s republic army and engineers.

“we rove your strawberry mirk shake gwailo“, it says in the game trailer / teaser, before blaskowitz the jew bank clerk gets strung up from the nearest lamp post by the locals, hoping to be rewarded with a job greasing aibo’s assholes at the local factory / emporium / outlet / laundry and noodle house.
