Wimminz – celebrating skank ho's everywhere

OK, maybe not Vlad personally, but clearly he ordered it personally, so I’m sat here with a Russian infection running riot through my lungs and blood and brain, fucking commie blood cells…

I used to work on the backbone, and I’ve been online since the days of the BBS, long before the “internet”, so I may not be a Andressen or McNealy or Cerf or Gates, but I’m not a fucking idiot either, and it is possible for me to speak on certain aspects of IT where the differences between my knowledge and all the knowledge out there is very very small indeed.

When it comes to hacking you can spy on routers and traffic and packets all you want, until the boys kick the door in and catch the operator at the (perferably still operating and online) computers, you’re not *certain* you have your man.

You may still not have “your man”, just a lowly footsoldier or freelancer, but at least you do have what you have with the guy you have and the computers there.

The next level of certaintly down from that is like talking about the next level of speed down from stall speed with an aircraft, you can’t be 99.999% certain, you can’t fly at 99.999% of stall speed, and you can’t be 99.999% not pregnant.

Sure, when it comes to IT you can make all sorts of assumptions, but in an engineering / scientific sense they are utterly worthless until / unless proven by kicking the door in and catching the hacker / cracker / wacker in the act and catching his computers all running and data intact.

So the level below 100% sure it was a wookie hack is 0% sure it was a wookie hack, all the traceroutes and whois and fingering and command line querying in the world don’t mean shit, it could all be smoke and mirrors, even accessing a router you could be getting lied to by a shell.

Every backbone router in the UK already lies in just this way, they all conceal the existence and interference and footprint of the data slurping “black boxes” that record all packet headers and more besides.

Think on that. Deeply.

We have created a perfect system of data society, where it is now impossible to verify any data as being genuine, a team of true investigative journalists *could* in theory dig up the story of me being a lying violent nasty heroin addicted rapist and child abuser who was a sexual risk to his own children, only a few of the peripheral players are dead, so it would still be possible to interview almost everyone in depth and paint a picture of what really happened back then, and then when you find this “truth” how are you going to disseminate it? What organ of the media or data comms are you proposing? How will you get the story out?

Who is going to pay for it too?

Thing is, with age and experience, I have come to realise one thing, an dit should keep you up at night, and that thing is that all our leaders and movers and shakers and people of influence, and I have been unfortunate enough to meet a few of them, are no more intelligent than the average school leaver, they are as thick as shit, invariably the “fiercly intelligent” ones have one pet subject on which they can spout at length, but not debate of have their actual knowledge questioned or put to the test.

None of this should scare you, what should scare you is their absolute belief that they are RIGHT.

Intellectually there is no differnence between Junker / LaGarde / Cameroon / May / Mutti Merkel and your average sand nigger suicide bomber, sure one may believe in keynsian monetary policy and the other may believe in the prophet, but they both BELIEVE, *absolutely*, that they are right, and everyone else is wrong.

The biochemical systems in the brains are the same.

To question is heresy.

The engineering / scientific method is heresy.

It is a tribute to the effectiveness of the human genome that despite this defiance of all fact, we have become the most sucessful species on the planet by far, with little or not need to rely on scientific and engineering truths, we can safely ignore 99.9% of truth and fact and *still* dominate the planet.

Lemmings.

Not *all* of them rush over the cliff to suicide to ease the population.

Those that do, boy, are they *right*

Insanity in men usually takes the form where the crazy knows they are crazy, they might kill you for mentioning it, but they know they are.

Insanity in wimminz usually takes the form where the crazy thinks they are pretty normal, which is why insanity in wimminz is so dangerous, that and that fact that lots of women are borderline batshit.

I have spent part of the holidays visiting dysfunctional families, I’m branded as being “old fashioned” and “a bastard” because I walk into homes where their front door is not treated as an impermeable barrier to dysfunction, and so naturally enough the dysfunction spreads to the rest of the family, “I need to take a piss, where’s your bog?” so I’m directed upstairs 2nd door on the left, they could as easily said “the door that has holes that have been punched and kicked into the skin”, inside and out and when you mention this they all raise they brows and say “Ah, that’s Josh, he has anger management issues”.

It’s not for me to say “And you have house management issues, allowing the cunt to stay or visit or ever cross the threshold again” but it is what I am thinking, so then I’m regaled with tales of the 10 year old who draws on everything with marker, especially everything that has been re-decorated.

Nobody knows how to stop or control this behaviour, nobody is in charge, nobody is in control, shrug your shoulders, what can you do?

BTW before you go off on a tangent about drugs and unemployment in society, it’s worth mentioning that these parents are both in full time employment, even if they do literally have a lock on their own bedroom door to keep the youth out, and not for sexual purposes, but to prevent theft.

The unemployed are worse.

Closer to home I had some visiting me, they all have handheld electronic devices, they all want to know the wi-fi password, I tell them it’s one euro per hour, they all smirk and adopts shit eating but-I-have-no-money grins while holding their i-devices, I shrug and say no worries, you need the guest network, the password is password, it’s an entirely separate ssid and vlan with it’s own bandwidth limited pipe to the net, 250 kbit up/down for the whole vlan, oh yeah, it has a whole bunch of traffic filtering and blocking going on too, and as we all know having grown up with 9,800 baud that’s a shit lot of free bandwidth and more than enough to do serious work with, so they all sit there watching loading screens and not much else and tell me how my “internet” sucks and theirs at home is so much better.

I pull out my Note 4 and run speed test and show them I’m getting 50 mbit down and 10 mbit up, so no, there is fuck all wrong with my wi-fi, and if they don’t like my free wi-fi they are more than welcome to fuck off back home…. or pay 1 euro per hour for access to the fast ssid/vlan.

There is much grumbling, but soon enough it is replaced with questions about charging as their devices are getting low on battery, hey, no problem, charge anything you want here, 1 euro per hour to plug in to my electric….. shit eating but-I-have-no-money grins while they hold their i-devices… OK, here you go, here are the 100 mA chargers, should charge your i-device overnight… maybe…

2 full days and 3 nights here and they depart, the kids say “thank you for having us and thank you for not killing is in our sleep”, the adults laugh, I say “maybe those kids aren’t as fucking stupid and useless as I thought they were…” the adults laugh again, even more nervously, I suspect I have been crossed off the rota of christmas visits, permanent like.

In the meantime I have been told my car is shit, because everyone knows they are shit, because Jeremy fucking Clarkson says so, my computer is shit, because I won’t allow spongebob the movie anywhere near it, my games consoles is shit because it is a PC (socket 2011 plugged directly into a 7 series 48″ Samsung RGB LED/LCD TV) and not a PS4 pro, my Technics stereo separates hi-fi is shit because it doesn’t have a i-pod dock or bluetooth (but I turn it on and they are all oh my god that’s so loud and what is that weird (stereo image sound stage) sound… no, that’s not loud, that’s normal easy listening volume) I could go on and on, but you get the idea, if it isn’t in some current must have advert like Dr Dre Beats then it must be shit, because.

At one point I tire of it and explain carefully and gently that being 12 and knowing everything is not a sin, nobody will blame you for not having experience, but in 4 years time at the age of 16 a switch will click over, permanently, from one state to another, and you’ll be coming to people like me, looking for a job, and you won’t be getting one, and then your PS$ will stop working when the electric isn’t paid, you’ll go hungry, and things will go down fast from there.

I explain gently that the real world is like showing you a new video game, there are no tutorials, no explanations, no rules, you can build a great base and go out hunting and another player will come along and steal your shit and burn the rest, and there is no pause, no save, no reload, no restart, and when you die it’s game over.

They start crying, literally.

If the gentle explanation and a 4 year advance warning makes them cry, WTF…. the reality will suck donkey balls.

Still, I can see they have all diligently and avidly absorbed the lesson, an hour later they are asking if my shit computer (and shit obsolete old me) can do/create/design something for them, I say sure, 50 euros per hour, should only take a few of hours, shit eating but-I-have-no-money grins again, can we have the free / lite version like the wi-fi and chargers, well gee, thing is time is the other consumable, and you know all those times you were told to pick this shit up and put that shit away and get yourself washed and dressed but you didn’t, or you did it wayyyyy too slow and dejected and foot dragging? You remember all that? Good, because that used up all the time that I was trying to set aside for this very thing you are now asking for, and a couple of other things that your parental units asked me if I could do, so now here is my impression of a shit eating but-I-haz-no-time grin… shrugs.

Christmas, that time of year when wimminz look at real men and start having second thoughts about how much they would like that man to impregnate them and raise children with them.

As a society we are beyond fucked, it’s not s much that these “people” are incapable of learning, clearly they are, capable, that is.. but the fact is they will resist it until their dying breath, and then they will demand someone else come in and teach them and sort that shit out.

We will be busy trying to keep our own shit straight, and helping you is contra-indicated.

Even the remarkably biased and low-balled official figures state that of the 1.2 million rapefugees that arrived in German is 2014/15, which is before the mass influx started, only 34,000 found *any* kind of paid employment (this is about 1 in 40) yet to even mention this is raycis and will get you a visit from the nazi apostasy politzei because you know you simply can’t say anything raycis or nazi in Germany (or many other places) because you know, that would be like smoking crack in a gunpowder store.

So the 10 year old girl who stuck her tongue out at me when I explained the word need is spelled N E E D, and the word she should have used was want, spelled W A N T, and it is pretty appalling to not be able to speak your own native language at ten years old, well pwinthess, sucks to be you, at no point will you ever have anything to offer me that will allow you to cross my threshold, at 10 you are already unfuckable for life, good luck with the rapefugfees and other mouth breathing but-I-don’t-have-any-money locals with their shit eating grins.

I will not be fighting for you.

Freedom and Civilisation / Society are mutually exclusive concepts, it has ever been thus, and all the rules and mores of society exist for the same purpose, the purpose of control.

Back in the dark days when “the word” was contained in the bible, all it took were gatekeepers who could read the word in the language it was written, and everyone else who could not, the gatekeepers told you the book said thusly, who were you to argue.

Real problems only started if you dared to try an obtain a copy of the holy words and tried to learn the language yourself.

Nothing has changed in modern law, in many ways you’d be forgiven for thinking that paedophilia is the modern reading, forbidden to all the great unwashed, the exclusive staple of the elite, a bit like eating swan here in the UK.

Want to be inducted into the elite, well slice your ring finger and channel some thetans and fuck some underage kids, it’s all part of the ceremony donchaknow, and dare to fuck with us once in and you’ll be thrown back to the masses and their tender mercies.

Looking at world maps we can see how distorted the views are with everything in the northern hemisphere getting embiggened and everything in the southern gettings shrunk, but nobody says shit about it, and pretty much can be said for the electoral maps of any country in the western world, but in the inverse, and attitudes follow the same “logic” and nobody says shit about it.

All the accepted models that we use for the world are at best skewed, and at reality hopelessly compromised, and at worst fatally flawed, but after a while you start to realise that this is by design.

It’s all always about control, always has been, always will be, and control starts at the limbic level, controlling thought and language and models of the world.

Every year that passes I think that the John Crapenter (sic) film “They Live… (we sleep)” was ever more prophetic and accurate and documentary, save for the aliens being actual extra terrestrial aliens, as opposed to home grown parasitic aliens, and given enough acid I could go the whole nine yards and embrace the actual ET aliens too.. why not, it’s only a tiny glace cherry on top of a steaming mountain of shit.

Hell, monkey see, monkey do, back in the day when I started this blog and I was still in the ongoing throes of my psycho skank ho ex’s allegations and the secret family courts awarding themselves as many extra billable hours as possible, I kinda thought one day when this too comes to pass, I can out myself and get my 15 minutes of fame as the new David Icke cover band, and then I thought cui bono?

Not me, my benefits will only accrue if the face I present to the world and the allegiance I give to the state and the system and the laws of the land are entirely artificial, and the real me and life I lead is confined to the spaces behind my own locked doors.

I came to unpleasant conclusions, it didn’t really matter if the multifarious allegations of the psycho skank ho ex were entirely venomous and false, or entirely justified and true, I was where I was because of whom I allowed behind those locked doors, not what I did or did not to to/with/for them.

Might wanna check out a band called the Drive By Truckers and their lyrics, company I keep, used to be a cop, really, check the lyrics.

Takes me back to my first night in a prison cell, so I ask the guy what he is in here for, and he says “I got caught”, but that’s the trick, you can’t get caught if you keep it private behind locked doors, but you can’t keep it private behind locked doors *and* go out and stand up and be counted, or try to make change, or try to make a difference.

Done a few weird jobs in my life, and it was always the same, the crew were always of a certain type personality wise, guess it’s the same for the politickers and movers and shakers, it’s only really open to a certain type, which I guess is OK if all you do is resurface roads or work the slaughterhouse blues or haul freight at midnite, but not so cool if all you do is make decisions that get to affect everyone else with the force of law and the state on your side.

Douglas Adams wasn’t even close with his ship full of lawyers and telephone hygeinists, one ship was enough for everyone who *wasn’t* a cunt, send the rest on a decaying orbit into the nearest star.

I’m perhaps overly fond of quoting Sagan and his “we live in a society dependent upon science and technology..” thing, but the fact is we are getting ever closer to the place where we find out the hard way.

Clinton / DNC / MSM / Soros et al, and *all* the commentators *still* are no nearer to understanding what “went wrong”.

What went wrong is simple, we live in a society dependent upon science and technology, and they trusted what their science and technology was telling them, even though they themselves knew nothing of science and technology.

We now live in an era where anything, Police, Utilities, Medicine, Retail, Military, Logistics, anything at all, can be taken down permanently, just take out the computers, data and methods of data connection, and increasingly these are all the same thing.

When the systems say you’ve won, when the systems say you’re safe, when the systems say you lie, when the systems say fuck you, nobody knows how to fall back to the older methods to verify.

Sci Fi is full of dystopian stories about people starving to death in the real world while they escape to a fantasy existence in the virtual world, but it is sci fi written by and for people who do not understand science and technology, the virtual world isn’t some avatar in some cyber second life pokemon lara croft bullshit, the virtual world is what some computer says your bank balance is, what some computer says your criminal history is, what some computer says your approval rating is.

I used to work on the (internet) backbone, it is *exactly* like working in the back end of cash/bullion delivery, hidden secret secure compounds where the wealth of the world is stored, but that wealth is useless behind those walls, it has to be accessible to Joe Public on demand or it ceases to have any value whatsoever, so it needs some sort of plumbing and distribution network to enable that, and some security around that. but not so much security that it can’t be maintained, because it is always in a state of flux, one step away from collapse.

You really do *NOT* want to know how many major business connectivity level service providers have a default set of logins that work across the entire estate, and at that point you aren’t talking about the ability to take out *a* wal-mart or *a* macdonalds or *a* esso, you are talking about the ability to make *all* of them treat every other office in the empire as “untrusted” , sure, it can be fixed, provided nobody takes out a NOC or two, provided nobody poisons a root DNS server or two, provided nobody hacks some UPS firmware and bricks everything, provided the power grid stays up and the new segmented by customer class type distro model doesn’t get hacked so the data centres and cell towers aren’t the *first* to get browned out to dark.

Meanwhile Hitlary et al are talking about russian hackers, they are focused on the DATA being altered in ways they do not like, as opposed to altered in ways they do like, but they aren’t questioning the data availability at all.

Who the fuck is kaiser sose and who can say all the ten million names of god, when will computers cross the singularity and become self aware, invent a time machine and go back and find the twelve monkeys, or kill sarah connor… it’s all bullshit.

“yrgWGnXg” falling into the wrong hands isn’t even close, despite being out of the scene I still have all those logins and config scripts and lists of IP addresses and so on, I personally ain’t about to exit from behind my locked doors and use them, or share them with anyone else, but if you think they are secure, just because one of the thousands of people with access to them chooses the quiet life behind locked doors…. I got some direct access to Thomas Jefferson to sell ya.

*nobody* in the clinton camp or the trump camp or the DNC or the FBI or CIA or anywhere really has a clue about this shit, they all cease to exist if that hammer drops, and only a certain class of people can fix that shit, and they won’t be the ones who break it, and when it breaks you won’t be all powerful enough to throw enough cash at them to hire the best.

The Easter island “where are all the trees analogy” works, the last foresters sailed months ago on their own dugouts and rafts, everything else is baked in… they were the only ones smart enough to see the trees fall below sustainability.

Talked about “stall speed” here before, now we have public proof of a large part of the deep state and indeed the country falling below stall speed in their understanding of “a society based upon science and technology”.

No real reason for the title other than to +1 the total of URL’s out there that might get indexed and thus push awareness of this little bit of fake news and russian propaganda.

One of the hilarities of operating a blog like this is the steady stream of guys who email me telling me that their psycho ex listed their abuse blog in documents sent by her lawyers, and the guy reads the papers and find the URL of this blog listed.

As “Pierre” said this week, the bitch is so crazy when I point out the wimminz blog guy talks about “his sons” regularly in his blog, but we have 2 daughters and no sons, and she says well duh, Pierre changed the sex of his kids in the blog to try to hide the fact that Pierre wrote wimminz blog…  not quite as good as “Pedro” three or four years ago, who pointed out to his psycho ho ex and her lawyers that wimminz could not be his blog, because the first articles are dated nearly a year before his own personal hell started, only to be told by the psycho ex that anything can be faked and he wasn’t fooling anyone.

My own personal psycho skank ho did mention it in our case and claim it was me, I just said “prove it” and it died a rather quick death.

“Prove it” is what Pierre and Pedro should have said, and so should you, if so accused.

Meanwhile in the divided states of america the hilarity and insanity continues, the clinton crime cartel (and obummer) apparently really  do believe they will hang by the neck if trump gets inaugurated, and I hear from those who may be in the know that trump is downplaying all the “jail her” shit simply because he hasn’t been inaugurated yet, and if he played it straight he would not be.

What with the anti russian hacker and propaganda laws and all the rest of the electoral college “bad faith” and so on, the place really has turned into a banana republic one step away from a police state.

“Land of the Free and Home of the Brave” it ain’t, when 100 million of them are fucking shitting themselves at the prospect of a Trump prezzidency.

My local butcher who sells meat he raises on his own farm here in dear old blighty is pro trump, simply because he is anti-establishment, it’s amazing how many “tradesmen” with actual real trades share his views, while the office workers of the world fear the swamp being drained.

I tell any cunt who will listen, go on you tube and search for “laser rust removal” and you’ll find videos 7 years old, now fire up google and try and buy or hire one near where you live, if you live in the UK you are shit out of luck, and this is the real reason our economy is in the shit and staying there, anyone who has one will eat you lunch, if you are competing with them.

Much of the problems with the economy here is the country is chock full of people who will in the evening turn to Amazon to buy product X, but during the day flatly refuse to see anything available on Amazon as competition to the product they make / sell, despite everyone in the buyers market for product X comparing them with Amazon… go figure.

Recently I got handed two rough wood shingles, basically really rough, saw cut, pieces of wood, look at them and your first instinct is to put them on the fire, but oh no, the 2015 SUV owning business proprietor wants them lasered to make some trophies, I shit you not… I won’t be expecting a repeat order in 2017, not because I was crap, but because he will almost certainly have folded within 12 months, and when he does, it will be because of the fucking brexiters or the fucking immigrants or the fucking chinese or something.

It really is not possible to say who or what the real donald is, but I have to admit, “I’m a smart man, I don’t need a daily intelligence briefing about 99 things that haven’t changed since yesterday” does strike the right note with me.

It’s like the current squeeze, who is turning into a long term squeeze for no other reason than a 100% achievement rate at putting me first, she went out today and made sure there were fresh sheets on the bed and a meal (x2) in the fridge and the place was tidy, because some other skank was coming over for a fuck, and despite giving her three clear opportunities over separate days where she could have raised an ever so minor expression of preference that I did not fuck the skank, she avoided any kind of negativity like the plague and called the skank a lucky skank for having me.

I *know* it’s hurting her, but she is dealing with that by telling herself better she suffer some hurt, than lose me and suffer a lot more hurt and also have no upsides to it.

Comes a point when you start to accept that that individual is not playing games or putting on an act, she is playing it straight and for real, and she is in it for learning lessons and growing as a person.

The donald may or may not reach that point where the electorate accepts that he is not playing games or putting on an act, if he does he won’t get there by taking 20 golfing vacations a year like obummer, he’ll do it by doing all the shitty jobs and working 100 hours a week.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

The current squeeze only got to the interview stage because of how she treated her kids and her ex when she split, which was to walk out the family home leaving everything intact and unchanged, and still contribute towards the mortgage and bills.

NAWALT I hear us all cry, and AWALT in response, well, APALT, if All Politicians Are Like That everyone who voted was a complete asshole, the downside is you preclude the acceptance of the outlier, and outliers do exist.

The problem is identifying them, and wishes and horses getting in the way of sound and distant judgement, treating the donald as the great white hope is a recipe for pain.

Put the fucker on the spot and give him all hard choices and no rewards for a couple of years and see how he does.

The donald got to the interview stage by funding his own campaign pretty much and not falling into any of the obvious traps, he could be a devious operator, he could be the real deal, like the current squeeze, all you can do is call it the interview stage and maintain a dispassionate watching brief for a few years, and maybe after a couple of years you can make some interim working observations and character assessments that are worth more than a handful of shit.

Certainly I can also be dispassionate about myself, take a back seat and analyse things and say, you know what, one the one hand you can put me and my worth as a “catch”, and on the other hand you can put the current squeeze and all the shit I have put her through the past couple of years, all the stuff she has given up uncomplainingly to win this great prize, all the consistent effort she has made, and not a hint of a foot put wrong, not even when traps were laid, and be truthful and say that further testing under the current regime is pointless, we need to move on to the next (thinking metallurgy terms here) part of the tempering / proving / assaying process, otherwise all you will do is kill it.

Same goes for the electorate and the donald, assuming that he does prove to be a man of integrity and not just another fucking politician, if he can deliver a couple of years of hard shitty jobs done for fuck all rewards, it will be time to move on from suspicion and start doing some field testing and feedback analysis, lets see if this fucker will run a quarter mile in under a minute…

AWALT/NAWALT and APALT/NAPALT means schizm in the electorate, because by definition anyone who *is* the real deal will eventually call it quits if they are the only fucker manning the oars on the galley and everyone else is appointing themselves to management positions on deck.

Getting Carrier to keep the workforce and manufacturing in the USA isn’t enough, they also have to start making world class kit that beats anything else on quality, this isn’t optional, if they decide to be like GM then the knives come out and the donald and his billionaire friends just create a start up that does, and that eats carrier’s lunch, and the crap carrier management and shareholders are all kicked to the kerb, and the good carrier employees go work for the new startup.

Good faith, just like bad faith, is a two way street.

It’s no good offering redemption if you can’t deliver when someone comes along and earns it, if you can deliver then we are back to the old school, and something all men everywhere know instinctively, earned loyalty.

Everything I do know about trump is his existing employees are very loyal, and many of them have stories that no job is too mundane or menial for the donald to be able to converse with them intelligently about it.

He didn’t marry an amerikansky bitch, he married a foreigner, twice (and a yank once, but never a wookie or ewok..lol) so twice divorced and thrice married, gain he doesn’t fit the mold for politicking, which favours life long marriages of convenience like hollywood fags of old (Rock Hudson etc) simply for “respectability” sake, while being anything but, and both his two lasting marriages were to women who worked and I don’t mean in the nail salon (the current bitch works, and hard too, she is the only female doing an all male manual labour job)

But these and many other things (trump giving up his business interests for the duration) are glossed over, just as home here many gloss over what the current bitch does for a living and how she treated her ex and her family (exemplary is the word that comes to mind) and to do so and focus instead on other irrelevant bullshit is to *potentially* miss the point utterly.

Missing the point in the same manner as the clintons complaining about wikileaks while ignoring utterly the damning content of what was actually leaked.

You gotta know when to hold, when to fold, when to walk and when to run, the DNC / clintons didn’t, and still don’t.

Please do not be blindsided by thoughts that AfOR has been cunt struck and will start preaching NAWALT and the clock starts ticking until I get deservedly fucked over again, under certain circumstances AWALT can be a self defeating strategy for a man, if applied universally (my own mother in her 90’s is cut from an entirely different cloth than a modern women, yet she is a woman) simply for the sake of purity.

There are occasions where it is wise to invoke a third category, “under field test” because the purity of either of the extremes will inevitably lead you to an outcome you would rather avoid.

You just don’t get invested in the outcome, nor do you pre-judge it or bet on it, nor do you pre-judge it and bet against it. Nor should you artificially prolong or shorten the tests.

*IF* the donald turns out to be the real deal, 2018/9 will be a real fucking interesting years…. and 2017/8 will be the years to gather data in preparation.

Shit, or get off the pot.

The tree of liberty needs periodic freshening with blood, those whose blood should be used for that purpose always know well in advance who they are, and they try to spill everyone else’s instead.

Still, many a slip between now and January 20th, and if all goes as expected, then it’s watch and wait, and be prepared to move.

I’m giving him three months in office, mid / end April 2017, and then I’ll either double my investment in capital equipment in my business, or use the money to go off grid.

It’s a fairly non-controversial statement that Google is a world leader is coding / amasssing human data sets / modelling what we do and think.

So, I have been doing a sort of half hearted very unscientific but nevertheless very real world and very significant test the past couple of years.

The test itself is very simple, it’s watching YouTube on the PC while another tab in the same browser is logged into google gmail.

Open a tab to https://www.youtube.com/ and there at the top right is my profile pic from the relevant gmail account, and of course participating in the “Recommended” section, watched it before, don’t like it, don’t show me anything else based on me watching xxxx, don’t show me anything from the channel xxxx.

You’d think after two years of this, they’d have it *NAILED* bruh..

Nope. At least a dozen times I’ve clicked do not show me anything from Jeremy Clarkson’s channel, yet there it is, a video about clarkson and may and nissan gt-r launch control, I don’t know how often I’ve clicked I have already seen this video for Japanese tsunami stuff, and there it is, the exact same video from yet another channel / uploader / mishmasher, I don’t know how often I have clicked I do not like this video for some lame ass fail video, and there they are, three fail videos, I don’t know how often I have clicked don’t show me any videos based on the Kenworth / Cat 3408 video I watched because I quite like cold starting diesels, and there they are, four videos on various yank semis from kenworth to peteys.. all with open pipes all on the jake…

There are other options that should be there, but aren’t, such as don’t show me any video that was uploaded more than a year ago, don’t show me any video that is just a bunch of still images and some music, don’t show me any video uploaded from india, but they aren’t.

So in the 24 recommended videos, there is ONE that I might possibly be persuaded to click on if I was bored, hand held tesla coil gun at 28k fps, like the cold start diesels, seen this stuff before, but as long as it is not an actual video I have seen before, good enough.

So…….

WHY?????????

Google *have* the algorithms and programmers and CPU cycles and money and everything else, but they seem content to do some *very* slack recommendations based on a rolling average of the last dozen or so videos you watched.

Do a youtube search for a video on bending acrylic and watch one and learn all you wanted to know, and suddenly your recommends are full of five year old SD res videos about acrylic, and most of them are naff, and two of them are dupes uploaded by different users.

So they have the technology, that isn’t in doubt, but, they don’t use the technology, that isn’t in doubt either, so somewhere someone is taking a shortcut, why?

For my suppositions on this, I’m going to go back to the 90’s and my days making money out of building internet porn websites for others, back in the day when there was that small gap for custom CGI that allowed the website to query your bank and take a credit card payment for access.

The dirty little trick you learned by the time you were on your third website was this;

If you drew venn diagrams of the content of each website, 95% of it was overlapping, and 100% of it had any one video fitting several categories, anal, creampie, reverse cowgirl, deep throat, so when you searched by category or keyword you’d be forgiven for thinking that a site that had 5,000 clips actually had 50,000, and you probably would never be aware than 500 movies is more than enough to make 5,000 clips, and two guys processing one movie each per day (CPU power was more limited back then etc) between them could add 150 clips a week and by the time those were keyworded and added to the listings you could claim that depending on they keyword you just added 1,500 new “movies” every fucking week, what a draw to keep subscribing.

So basically the dirty little secret was making a limited quantity of content look like 10,000 channels of live TV with no re-runs, which is not a million miles away from what you get when satellite or cable TV promote themselves, for only 50 quid a month sky are doing a deal and included is almost 500 complete box sets, 490 of them are already on amazon prime of course, but that’s neither here nor there.

The other thing I am going to mention is silverjuke, which sits on my NAS box reading my 57,000+ mp3 files, and in the past few years I hardly add anything to that music library, but it is still a vast selection, assume and average of 4 minutes play time per track and you get 57,000 x 4 = 228,000 / 60 = 3800 / 24 =158.3 days of music before anything repeats, you’ll only hear each track twice a year, *if* you are awake and listening to it 24/365, but guests can still come by and use the search function and not just find tracks, but entire artists that are completely absent from my collection.

Now, if you think about this, the whole idea that all these sites are just a front and behind the scenes the content is *far* more limited than you would either credit or believe, makes perfect sense, because it it did *not* then content caching services like akamai and so on would be dead in the water.

I have amazon prime simply because I end up ahead on the deal on postage, as I won’t buy anything that isn’t shipped for free by prime, but I means I also get access to the *vast* prime video library, a library so vast that in the past year “I” (as a user) have watched a total of two films, both for guests, one was a film that I had no interest in, one was a kids film, and two “TV” programmes, episodes 1 and 2 of the grand tour, both of which were shit, episode 3 won’t be getting watched, and yet this “exclusive” and “original” and “new” content was worth months of promo, how come, how can a mere 12 hours of new programming annually deserve such hype, 50 years ago BBC TV alone used to produce 16 hours of new programming per day.

It all reminds me forcibly of the early days of cable, wow, there is a whole sci-fi channel with nothing but sci-fi, woweee, and PDQ you realise that if it isn’t a re-run of some sixties shite that you have already seen so often you can almost quote the few lines of the guys wearing red shirts, it was the most awful thing ever, it was made FOR fucking sy-fy channel, so bad it could not even dream of being straight-to-supermarket-bargain-bin-dvd…

We are told that the gaming industry is fucking vast, even bigger than the movie industry, well for all those fucking billions, you don’t want to know how few hours in the last month I spent playing games (Fallout 4 and Skyrim Remastered is it) or watching movies…. Next movies will be guardians of the galaxy 2, downloaded for free from usenet long before it ever hits these shores in the cinema, watched on the sofa with some chick who will be playing with my balls the entire time.

Despite the technology and predictions, which basically allow almost anyone to do things that a mere 20 years ago only millionaires on a mission could dream of, (see previous post about hipsters and bike mags) we have hit an all time low in human creativity.

Go ahead, call my bluff, go to youtube and do a search for videos on any specific subject you like, say “Honda CBX” or “Myford ML7 lathe” or “Technics SA-200L reciever” or “Austin Ruby”, before you know it you will have exhausted the entire content, and if you are smart and pick a thing that you personally know about (I’ve owned or used or worked on all of the above) you will further realise that all the content that there is, is total fucking bullshit.

I find this all hilariously ironic in the current atmosphere of “fake news” accusations, given that there basically isn’t any investigative journalism anywhere, yet there are all these news channels and websites and so on that require hourly updated content 24/7.

On a motorcycle forum that I sometimes frequent, a thread came up recently about the demise of decent quality magazines, I posted a comment echoing this and said the same thing happened to computer and electronics mags, they all got bought up by big publishing houses ISO profit and adverts and the art of storytelling was killed off.

Cue people talking about the new breed of bike magazine, shit like GKM (greasy kustom) and DICE, so me being me I toddle off and see what I can find out.

Really, just the same fucking shit, I LIVED THROUGH THIS SHIT, and even did it for a while (hardtail chops with 1.1 US gallon peanut tanks with no reserve) until I woke the fuck up, and hand built bikes artfully painted to look like they have been in a barn under a tarp for 40 years until you found it yesterday, and not to mention the obligatory beards and fully body tats…

Back in the day “lifestyle” meant just that, that was how you lived your life, but it wasn’t some insulated make believe that only worked as long as there was free credit and chinese sweatshops kind of lifestyle, it was the raw and unforgiving one where “money” was cash and you got paid weekly and when you ran out you ran out so good luck trying to buy *anything*… unless you could borrow a 5 or a 10 from someone.

A guy building a bitsa rat bike out of the bits he had because those were the bits he had, is a fucking world away from some retro-hipster type trying to artfully create something in 2016 with a panhead bottom end and shovel heads and a BSA frame and no front brakes.

The whole “clean and lean” no front brake thing came about because of poverty and lack of engineering skill, brakes on motorcycles then were shoe, twin shoe if you were lucky, so it was cable operated, and most people couldn’t make cables (a surprising number of bike mechanic shops couldn’t make cables) or to be accurate could not make them so the cable did not pull out… so any non standard front end was potentially an issue, especially when you altered the rake and extended it, turned out things got really wobbly really quick (teles in those days were still fairly new, and fairly spindly) and combine that with grabby shoe brakes and experimenters soon discovered the only cheap solution was to make the unsprung weight at the front end as low as possible, so skinny wheel + skinny tyre + no brake shoes or hub + 40 spokes or less… suddenly a “style” was born, and now 45 fucking years later cunts are trying to copy the style where there is not one single valid reason to do so, it would be like trying to build an MP3 player that looked like an old horn 74 RPM player.

I could go through most of the things that became style factors, and invariably the reasons for them were mundane and technical or financial, NO FUCKING WAY we would have dismissed modern technologies if they were available or affordable.

Cutting a frame, usually a damaged or rusted frame, and welding on a hardtail was cheaper than any other option to get you back on the road, simple as.

In the early 80’s I sold a ducati to a patch biker who cut the ass end off and hardtailed it and claimed it handled better, but then again when your access to technology consists of a mate who can weld, a mate who can paint, and a hacksaw, and for whatever reasons you think it is gonna damage your street cred to be seen on a factory standard bike, that’s the shit you do.

He thought he was cool, I thought he was a cunt for doing that to a duke…

But CNC didn’t exist, the internet and fedexing a part you just bought online from the states didn’t exist, MiG didn’t exist (I dunno when it actually started but all you would ever actually find in a mechanic / garage was an old oxford oil bath AC stick welder and oxy-acetylene with some saffire brazing torches.) and for sure there were mills and lathes and surface grinders and all that around, but they were manually human operated by skilled men, chances are you weren’t one of them.

I always took great pains to make sure the brakes and steering on my bikes was as good as I could get it, so even if the rear end was a hardtail with a drum brake, the front end did not have too much rake and I’d have at least one disk brake up there, albeit a solid stainless rotor completely unlike modern brakes that you had to kiss with the pads to dry and warm it before using it, or you could just grab a handful and nothing would happen for a second and then it would lock up, but use it right and it vastly outperformed twin leading shoe BSA style and front wheels are 70% of your braking ability on a bike.

But my dad was an engineer and as a result I was for more mechanically minded and able than most, most couldn’t even do brake cables properly, so making up and bleeding a hydraulic front caliper and hoses was rocket science, literally, so the 4″ single shoe drum from a big dia skinny profile trail bike got used, and it wasn’t really used as a brake, and even if it was a decent cables were used it was impossible to lock up.

But no, today these cunts are looking at old photos and trying to re-create that shit, without ever having a clue that that shit was down to necessity, not choice, and that necessity more often than not was our ONLY mode of transport.

Back then people’s bikes were constantly evolving because bits were constantly either breaking or (literally) falling off… I shit you not, it had absolutely sweet fuck all to do with constantly customising towards some sort of goal or style.

Footpegs / gear selectors, brake levers, mudguards, chains, exhausts, silencers, fuel tanks, oil tanks, headlights, seats, engine mounting bolts, chain / primary cover bolts, I have had the lot fall off bikes while riding, welds boke, things rusted, things fatigued, nuts and fasteners worked loose, shit we used to make our own wire locking good end threaded bar for footpegs and drill through the nut are wire lock it, or hammer the end of the thread to mushroom it, and shit still fell off… and broke.

And yet, despite all the advances in technology, despite these new hipster retro bikes having (compared to us) a ton of money thrown at them, despite them (compared to us) doing fuck all miles and not being the sole means of transport, they still break down, but these cunts think it is funny or part of the charm.

Ain’t no humour or charm in your oil tank splitting the seams 50 miles from home on a sunday, when you need to get home, and ride it to work Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday so you get paid and maybe fix it before the next thing breaks or falls off.

Ain’t no humour or charm in routinely getting wet and cold because you are wearing denim and patched leather and cotton, with maybe some dirty 40 weight lube oil smeared in for some water repellent ability, because you can’t afford Belstaff waterproof waxed cotton jackets and jeans and so on, because all your money goes on keeping the fucking bike running.

Now these cunts dress up the same, like these kids who pay good money for brand new jeans that look like they are worn out with cuts and holes everywhere.

YOU’RE TAKING THE FUCKING PISS MATE.

So no, really, do NOT expect me to come over all “Hey Bro” fellow knight of the road when you come rolling down my way, or worse still when you look at me and my pretty clean, unless you really know what you are looking at can’t tell it isn’t exactly the way it came from the factory, fuck you I paid my dues, now I ride when I want to, when it’s warmer and drier and nicer, skinny old ass, and decide to look down your nose at me because you think you’re fucking hardcore on your retro hipster shovster with 60 miles range which is enough to get to half a dozen latte and tattoo parlours.

And if you think this rant is JUST about bikes and bikers you got another think comin’ at ya… that ain’t even scratching the surface bro.

Now git the fuck off my lawn.

And £30 fucking quid a year for six issues of your poxy hipster magazine so you can take more arty HDR photos of people like you and continue your fake lifestyle… go fuck yourself… that’s 28 litres of gas at todays prices, gas to take me out on roads where I’ll never see cunts like you… because there are no latte bars or artistic graffiti or hip clothing stores.

So a couple of days ago here in the UK we were treated to a photo in the “news” of some skank walking out of downing street with a full page of hand written notes visible dealing with brexit, and this happens maybe 30 feet away from the press, who are all armed with *excellent* Canon and Nikon kit and lenses.

It is not possible to be in government at that level and not be aware of cameras and lenses, it simply is not possible, so everything you want to keep quiet will go in a zipped attaché case, end of.

If it doesn’t, and it is carried like that, you were meant to fucking see it, which means it’s fake news.

It’s like the USA and UK (and other places) coming up with a cash for clunkers car scrappage scheme at the same time, anything that can be sold as a good idea with few objections gets it, so all you have to do is take your real idea and wrap it in fakery until it can be sold as a good idea with few objections.

See, the monarchy ended for me in 1974, because here in the UK the monarchy has to sign every law into being, and in ’74 lizzie signed the helmet law into being, and for me that was the first time the state intervened in my life, or if you like the day my eyes were first opened.

I wrote to both the Daily Mail and the Express back then, and both letters were published, but by the time creative editing had been done all the facts had been removed and what was left was me apparently supporting the new law, when in fact I was vehemently against it, and that was the day the media died in my eyes.

Mr Clancy, my physics teacher, will forever remain a God in my memory, because he would answer any and every question, and he never ever resorted to “because it just is, OK, now stop asking”

Even questions that he could not answer, or to which the answer was not know, he would discuss.

It’s a dangerous rabbit hole to go down, once you start questioning, and stop accepting “because it just is, OK” as a reason, because before long you’ll find that at least 90% of life and laws and customs come in the “because it just is, OK” category.

At that time in the UK it was legal to fuck or join the army at 16, to get a driving licence or get married without consent at 17, to buy alcohol or vote at 18, and drive a truck at 21, I can’t honestly remember the age of homosexual consent because it didn’t affect me, it would have been 18 or 21 I guess.

The obvious inconsistencies in those ages or permissibility gave rise to a very good question, the question wasn’t where you could set the age of consent for sex, there were arguments for and against various ages, but you had to draw the line somewhere, the argument was, WHY do you have to draw the line somewhere?

Today if you are in any position of authority, the age of sexual consent is 18, which means that I could marry a girl who was my student and live platonically for a year and not consummate the marriage and not break any laws, but if I fuck my wife it would be illegal, because she was also my student, and I mean ANY student, could be driving student for all the law cares.

The shit doesn’t mean the lines are drawn in the wrong place, though that is ALWAYS what is said, the lines are in the wrong place, what it means is that shit should not exist in the first place.

You either have an age of majority or you do not, and if you do, that age applies to EVERY fucking thing, and if you are troubling yourself over questions like it being ok for johnny to join the army and get his ass shot off at 17, but he should be allowed to get his ass reamed until he is 18, then the problem is you, you do not get the principle of majority.

If you are NOT in the majority, then you should be protected, and if you are going to be protected, you should be protected from everything, no good saying porn is bad for 10 year old girls, but tampax and beauty marketing is good for 10 year old girls, if they are minors you do not get to market ANYTHING to them.

Back in the day the Meccano #6 set was not marketed to small boys like me, it was marketed to dads like mine, who might want to consider buying such an educational and fun present for their son.

I remember when Google / android / smartphones came out, I remember a smart but paranoid guy saying to me that target market wasn’t adults like us, long term the target market was 5 year olds an up, and he was right.

What an amazing device to put into the hands of young children, in the same society where we are taught that the evils of child indoctrination by the Nazis were the pinnacle of devilry, when the reality is ceebeebies and peppa pig alone blow away anything the hitler youth managed in terms of mind shaping.

It is very easy to say “everything you read in the MSM is a lie”, it’s a factual statement, but it’s not helpful, the hard bit comes when you start collating and documenting all the lies, hoping to infer the truth by inference from all the negatives, the suspect does not have red hair, or frizzy hair, does not have brown eyes, does not go by the name of Fred, does not like baseball or any ball sports, does not live in a house.

Ah yes, clearly we are talking about the late and not lamented (because nobody is talking about it) Julian Assange, least of all the non-compromised wikileaks.

Meanwhile in the states everyone is talking about possible back room deals and you scratch my back swamp dwellers being behind Carrier deciding not to outsource 1000 manufacturing jobs to mexico, whereas all the donald had to do was pick up the phone BEFORE he won the election and tell the board of carrier that if those jobs go, ALL carriers guvvmint tit contracts would go along with them, the donald wins, carrier execs run around like headless chickens for a week or two arguing over who is going to be sacrificed at board level, and the announcement is made, the jobs are staying.

The donald is going to hire hitlary as secretary of state, well the MSM says so, but those “in the know” say no, the donald says fuck the MSM, the donald makes all his announcements via twatter…

That’s great, except the donald does not control twatter, so those who do have ultimate control over what he says..

Erdogan is doing a deal with Putin, Erdogan is invading Syria and declaring war on Putin by proxy, in a world of lies, nobody knows the truth, we just know what the lies are, which is basically everything we are told, from how to think to how to act to how to behave.

I have long said, YOU should not care if |I do not steal from you because it would be wrong, or because I don’t want to go to prison, to YOU, the outcome is the same, it is only ME who should care why I do not steal from you.

You should only care if you wish to associate with me, and I will use the same metric to judge you, and that is all old school human interaction 1-on-1 stuff that cannot be digitised or automated or signed or certificated.

You should care which sort or person has power over you though… don’t vote for anyone you don’t know personally.

Can’t run a democracy like that? Too bad, you were asking the wrong question, that line did not need to be drawn at all.

SOCIETY will run itself.

The age of consent should be decided by he whom is responsible for the body in question, so in the case of the young girl it is either her call, or her father’s call, nobody else’s business.

Standards based shit like driving, you either make the standard or you do not, who gives a shit if you are 14 or 40.

Meh

I had a convo with someone regarding the recent push by the EU, sans a Hitlary prezzident-elect, to say fuck it, we’ll start a war with Russia without the Yanks help…

Suffice it to say we had a difference of opinion, my opinion was rendering themselves unelectable wasn’t their (Eg our glorious EU leaders from mutti merkel on down) concern, their concern was swinging from lamp-posts, and that was likely to follow being unelectable and someone draining the swamp and digging up the dead bodies and pointing fingers… so the only way to prevent it all is to head em off at the pass end herd everyone over the cliff to war.

His opinion was that nobody was that fucking crazy, nobody would choose all the perils of war over the perils of a swamp draining a guillotine party, because there would be no guillotine party, maybe a little suspended jail time.

Now, I can’t say I have known intimately any paedos or serial killers, but I did know very well indeed someone who today would be called a crazy stalker.

I knew both the stalker A, and the object of their attentions B, and one day B did something trivial for A (who had a few life issues anyway it had to be said) and within 24 hours A was flatly convinced that she and B were in forever love and were destined to be together forever.

B, for his part, felt none of this, and went from someone prepared to talk to her socially to someone who used to hide from her.

Me being me I took the opportunities as presented, B would ask me to keep A away from him, A would ask me to get her closer to B, I told A jealousy was the way to go so we’d have to have lots of kinky sex, it worked for a few weeks… from my perspective…

But, it was the talking to A, fucking delusional doesn’t cut it, on so many fucking levels, that she was a gorgeous person who B deserved to be with, because only that way could B be happy etc.

B basically skipped the country a few weeks later, went to Italy and made everyone promise not to tell A he had gone to the Canaries…lol.. me and two others knew he was actually going to Genoa.

Anyway, prior to meeting her, I would never have believed, that contrary to every single bit of evidence available, someone could believe a thing, and would go to any lengths to protect that belief.

About the time I bailed the penny dropped that to A the greatest evils in her life was anything and everything that challenged her beliefs, all those thousands of contrary facts? They were mere tests, only visible to those who were her enemies and who wished her to fail in her destiny.

That bitch would have started global thermonuclear war, not even to get her dream, but just for an evening in the same bar as B, so she could gaze at him like a starving hyena eyes a trapped baby goat.

So, when I see these freaks angling for an increase in tensions and a move closer to war with Russia, I *do* fucking believe it, and all I can see is that whatever their dark secrets and desires and beliefs are, they are strong enough that war with Russia is seen as a solution, not a problem.

You see, to these people, the problem is *not* having some huge distracting event, whereas Brexit / Trumpit / Grexit / Frexit / Italeave / etc *is* the worst of all possible worlds, and since they are the worst of all possible worlds, all actions to avert them are justified.

The difference between B and the brexiters who celebrated here and the trumpton-ites who celebrated in the states is B did not think that A was like him but a bit crazy, or that A was like him but a bit messed up, or that A was like him but a bit prone to do the odd bad thing, or that A was like him but was just misunderstood or confused.

B knew that A was fucking psycho, and if she ever got him alone and the mirror got cracked, she’d cut his fucking heart out, if she couldn’t have him, nobody could.

B knew that there was not one single redeeming feature in A, not one single thing to inspire mercy or understanding or help or compassion, kill it with fire, but since he could not do that without sacrificing his own life he made himself disappear.

B could do that, because A was just a lone psycho with no power.

As time goes by, I am staring to accept the proposition that humanity is indeed facing an r/K civil war, those in power will not relinquish it or allow a sea change, they’d rather burn it all down, to them it is the safer and saner option.

I cannot see any evidence to the contrary………… and I have been looking, because I have been wanting to dismiss the theory for some months now.

I get it now and again in the business, I do not and will not have a card terminal, which stops everyone from paying me with plastic, which stops everyone who only has a credit card and no cash from paying me, and pay comes before play, but for all that it is still a largely electronic virtual fiat transaction.

Demonetisation day 9 in India, and of course it’s largely ignored in western media, when it really should be a top of the hour every hour story, because it is the story of what happens when the government decides that, in order to stop terrorism / black economy / donald-fucking-trump / drugs cartels / whatever, they just make all the higher denomination paper money bills invalid, if you hold any, you have to go to a bank and exchange them for the new replacement not so high denomination bills….

… in a country where a lot of the people don’t even have a bank account and where cash is king, you get paid in cash, you spend cash, there will probably be millions of indians whose nearest bank is far enough away that unless you want to spend 3 days walking there are 3 days walking back, the only way you’ll get there is to spend a bunch of money you can’t afford to get there and back, but most of the money you actually hold is now worthless, so you can’t spend it on a bus or train ride, because the bus and train companies won’t take it… because it’s now worthless until it is exchanged in a bank for the new notes, and that process is chaotic and slow.

If you have hundreds of millions of rupees in the bank down the road in a city you can of course easily enough do an electronic transfer to the Mercedes dealership to buy your new S class….

But make no mistake, the war on cash is already here in the west, and it is going to get bigger and badder and meaner because the move is to outlaw cash, like guns, only criminals have guns, so gun ownership is criminal, but an illegal gun fires bullets just as well as a legal gun, an illegal fiat currency is poor quality toilet paper at best.

We here in the UK used to have a cash economy, some time later after the introduction of fake paper substitutes like cheques and later still fake electronic substitutes like plastic and e-banking, there were still vestiges of the cash economy, but by then it was known as the black economy.

In the 2 years my business has been running I have seen a decline in the black economy, despite incentives of around a 20% discount on every bill, the amount of cash I take is decreasing steadily, with erstwhile regular cash customers now opting for paper invoices and cheque payments, and these are the old die hards who have bugger all “internet” and “e-banking” facilities / knowledge / inclination.

Bank branches are closing and those that are open are using machines instead of staff and fewer staff numbers, so it is increasingly a pain in the ass to go and draw cash to pay me or anyone else cash and get a cash discount, again, most of these regular customers are in a position to simply pass on the increased cost to their customers, and it saves them having to go to the bank and draw cash every time they give me an order.

“They” are creating a situation where the only people who will be using cash are those who are dealing in drugs and stolen goods, and those who cannot get a bank account and plastic debit card and have internet and e-banking, and ever here in the prosperous west, there are more of those than you would be comfortable believing exist… so many that there were initiatives to create an inclusive alternative for them in the shape of bank accounts lite with the Post Office, and even those some people can’t get.

Thus the initial premise that only the undesireables and criminals use cash becomes a self fulfilling prophecy, meanwhile billions at a time money launderers and criminals like HSBC et al continue to function perfectly because after all electronic virtual fiat currencies is their forte…

At this moment in time I do not have any outstanding bills, having drawn 200 quid in cash yesterday to hand to my local mechanic to ensure one of the vehicles in maintained in top condition, I have a whopping 100 quid left to last me until the end of the months, and a small cash in hand job to do tomorrow, and a not so small used to be cash but is now cheque (so takes 4 working days to clear” job, and about ten days until the next regular lump sum comes in, so basically I don’t have any financial problems, I have enough electronic virtual money to make the end of the month without any changes in lifestyle, and if push comes to shove I always have the zero balanced credit card with which I can draw or spend 500 quids worth of electronic virtual fiat, because basically I spend what I earn, I’d like to spend more, so I’d like to earn more, but in the meantime I live comfortably and can’t complain.

I have no fear of many of the things that others along side me in this electronic virtual fiat currency world should fear, I do not have any deposits to be annexed and bailed in, I do not have any deposits to be grabbed by law and exchanged at some ruinous rate for the new electronic virtual fiat currency, newquids, or noteuros, or jewbux, or anything else, nor do I have any loans of note other than a small overdraft facility to be used against me as leverage.

I have reason to suspect that I may be due to receive a small sum of capital from the estate of a dead relative, I do not know the amount, but it isn’t a huge pie to start with and it is being divided several ways plus legal fees, so it won’t be a life changing amount or even a significant one, but I do plan to spend all of it immediately on “stuff” , goods not services, because that turns it from a liability into an asset.

I have no clue what the future will bring, I am not a prophet, on the other hand, there are some things that I know to be facts.

Nobody who is behind the scenes working on this global push to outlaw cash and move to an electronic virtual fiat currency system has my interests at heart, they have THEIR interests at heart, and the mere disparity in power and influence between us suggests strongly that the two have little if any common ground.

Take a look at the Saudi’s, now they want to IPO the oil, what the fucking fuck, why would anyone float the golden goose, the tree of life, the cup of immortality??? If you could hold on to it you would, and you wouldn’t share, and they didn’t for 50 years, and now Hitlary has lost they decide to float it? give me a fucking break, and read some history, south sea bubbles and people investing in “great undertakings” that were guaranteed to make them a fortune but the workings of which were to remain secret from said “investors” because oh look over there at that distraction.. and it’s gone…

Course, world + dog’s pensions funds will be in there like gangbusters with promises of 25% year on year growth… and it’s gone… great way to dissolve already insolvent pensions schemes and bond markets and not actually shoulder any blame..    yeah we invested everything in Vulcan Pyro Futures and who coulda guessed, the whole fucking lot went up in flames the next Friday, there’s nothing left, not even the ground it sat on, there is just the huge molten magma pit.

You know the world is fucked by design when you compare Venezuela with Saudi, they both have similar volumes of commercially available hydrocarbon reserves, but Venezuela also has minerals and agri land, but guess which one has “minor royals” clogging the streets of downtown London and Manhattan with gold plated Bugattis and Hitlary donations wrapped around kilo bars of 99.999% pure gold plated titanium…

If you (India) wanted to do it right all you had to do was go to China, they managed to get rid of denominations higher than 100 yuan, so corrupt local politicos literally could not hide significant sums of paper money under the bed any more, you just put the mattress on the pile of paper money, and yet they also managed to build build build and become the world’s manufacturing giant.

But then as I have said before here and elsewhere, study history young man, China has over 2000 years of actual history of playing with fiat currencies…

Try and take your non chinese extended family to china and try and buy and open and run something as humble as a corner store or laundry or restaurant… not permitted.

This post starts with “In God we trust, all other pay cash” because the idea is that I don’t trust anyone else, but I trust the cash they hand me, what happens when I do not trust the cash they hand me, or they have no cash to hand me, just something else I distrust equally?

By luck or judgement or insight or fortune, you’ll end up with *some* fortunates like me, who quickly dispose of any positive positions that they have in that fiat in exchange for things like coffee and diesel and smokes, and who avoid like the plague any negative positions that they might have, in the form of any kind of debt whatsoever, or any possessions that can have a lieu or tax slapped on them, like land.

Back around 1999 myself and another guy worked on this thing, remember this was an era when ADSL was just being launched, 512k down 128k up, and Windows was on the then greatest ever so far XP, basically the idea was we would build a website and a box and connect it to the net, the box had removable HDD’s and for your money you got one physical HDD to do with what you wished… should disaster strike you rang us, the HDD was pulled and handed to a motorcycle courier and was with you within a few hours.

We never got one single customer.

Due to the “actual physical HDD couriered to you within a few hours” it was superior to anything offered today, and basically much of what is offered today is the same thing, it’s called the cloud….

Now you can come up with lots of reasons why our names are not up there in lights as multi billionaires, we were assholes, we had no budget, we had no marketing, but mainly the world wasn’t ready for it yet.

5 years before that a guy I knew had set up an ISP, I was customer number (I forget the actual number but it was less than 20) to sign up, those days it cost 1p (UK£0.01) per minute for the phone call, and you probably got around 30k downstream, plus the ISP monthly fee, he did become a millionaire and a household name, I did not invest in him when I could have because I couldn’t see anyone except assholes like me paying 1p a minute to get data, so my visionary ability status cut both ways.

We like to chuck all this together as human beings and say it is an idea that has come of age, sure there were pioneers who came before, but we have forgotten all about them now, and all we remember are the ones who commercialised it and made a killing.

Interestingly a lot of those who made a killing also offered something that was considerably cut down compared to what the pioneers were trying to do.

But basically you get ideas that come of age, I’m old enough to remember the UK joining what was then called the common market, and the as yet incomplete exit from the same thing, Brexit, even though both things were different directions and different in about as many ways as you can get, they had an awful lot about them that felt the same, they were ideas that had come of age.

This is the thing nobody gets about, for example, Nazi Germany, historians and liberals like to make out that there was Adolf and his gang of jackbooted raycis thugs, and then there was the poor but good german people who didn’t agree with any of this, but what can individuals do against evil raycis thugs?

“Us first” came of age, that is all there was to it, make ameri^H^H^H germany great again, that is all there was to it, and enough people who self identified as german and not austrian or prussian or high elf or bavarian went for it… and a *lot* didn’t… hence the violent clashes.

But coming of age is a human individual thing too, and just for shits and giggles I am often heard to remark how funny it is that backward third world shithole kids who literally have less of everything (except lice) than our western kids are ready to work and marry and raise kids at 14, but our western kids aren’t even ready to leave educational safe spaces until they are in their twenties, and they are still worthless and weak, how is that?

Between the media and marketers and everyone else, we’ve have pretty much brought about a state of affairs where nobody believes anything the media says, which includes the intertubez, and far from this being some panacea where everyone is enlightened by their total distrust of the media, it is instead a place where if “everything you are told is lies” then there is no barrier whatsoever to believing what you choose, there is no reality check any more, so schism has come of age.

It’s easy to label what is happening in the USA now as trump vs not trump, but it isn’t. not really, it is a schism in society between peoples who only have one thing in common now, none of them believe a word the media says, so they have their own beliefs that are never verified for logic or fact, and they split in to two opposing camps.

Sure, trump may be the poster boy du jour for one camp, but that don’t mean shit.

Many years ago in spain I met a couple of guys, they were getting on in years, and one night over some beers they admitted to me that back in the day, they knew el Che back in the home country, and knew as in knew to talk to and el Che knew them too, and none of them could relate anything in their own personal memories to the accepted history, sadly I myself was too drunk to remember what they remembered, for all I know know the Che they remember might have liked Frank Sinatra songs, BSA motorcycles and Peter Stuyvesant cigarettes, but I do remember them saying he was a bit of a dweeb, not too smart, easily manipulated and easily offended.

I remember that night because only a week or so before I’d spent the night with some guys who had the same sort of connection to Franco, and they described him as just some guy who tried to do what he saw as the right thing, constantly surrounded by people who told him air was wet and water was dry one day, and the opposite the next day, a guy drowning in angst and indecision who now and again indulged in fits of rage because doing something was better than doing nothing or doing things in the dark for reasons that turned out not to be true.

We live in a world where girls are quite happy to enter into a sexual relationship with a man, AT THE TIME, until someone else changes their mind and convinces them that whatever they did back then was wrong, but it wasn’t their fault, because they are a victim, so the evil man must be punished, and it really doesn’t matter if you tell lies and invent stuff out of thin air and utterly re-write history, the new narrative is all that matters, and while we will decry specific examples of this, the fact is that everyone in western society, both male and female, has become those girls.

The rich irony for me is that no matter how brutal and ice cold and clinical I like to portray myself, without exception every single time I had the opportunity to fuck something really young or con someone really stupid or take from someone really weak or oppress someone really powerless, I couldn’t bring myself to do it.

At those moments of action and potential I always found myself to be in contemplation and thought, fraught with empathy… don’t get me wrong, face me down and start screaming at me what a worthless cunt I am and I will slaughter you and everyone you even knew (for the crime of not killing you when they could have) and it will feed my soul to do so, because basically you didn’t just fucking ask for it, you dared me to do it, which is quite the different thing from stealing candy from a baby.

But such things are not permitted, I must either be Saint Stuffus, protector of young girls and babies and retards, or I must be El Feo, raper and killer of small babies, puppies and other cute furry animals.

Schism is coming of age, and if you thought racism or sexism or religious fanaticism was bad, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
