Kleine Kartoffellen Kafe!
We are here in Mittel Europa, not Jim Crow territory, so the initials need not alarm anyone………………
Relative magnitudes, with German mathematical precision shall be my guiding theme………..
Eine Kleine Kafecito, danke!
Mit sahne.
Looks lake German requires an extra word to denote size……..unlike Spanish.
Prices are in lei. Romania? I saw kartoffeln and I thought Deutschland too…
Ein kleiner Kaffee is in Saxon “ein Käff’chen”.
They are famous for their precision-size ingenuity.

The German tribes use the ‘chen in different intensity.
And how is that in English?
That’s right, as sgage says, it is in German and Romanian : kartoffel = cartofi = potatoes. In Russian – if I’m not mistaken – kartoshki (картофель), that is Eastern Europe. ” Noua promotie ” = new promotion.
It seems to me like a German version of McDonald’s in Romania, it is interesting because such a picture says a lot of things about where the wind is blowing from in the actual European power structures. The picture itself looks so innocent…of course, people are invited to eat the good old potatoes with various ingredients…in Romanian and German…that’s new, however, this might be happening probably in Transylvania (in central Romania). Just my two dimes…

A federal judge imposed a life sentence on the self-described neo-Nazi who killed Heather Heyer
by crashing his car into a crowd of counterprotesters in Charlottesville, Virginia, after a white
supremacist rally, saying release would be “too great a risk.”
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-virginia-protests/charlottesville-neo-nazi-sentenced-to-life-judge-says-too-great-a-risk-to-release-idUSKCN1TT1B3
Culture Street Wars:
Just to set the record straight: The rally in Charlottville began as a rally to preserve a civil war historical statue with disparate elements gathered to do so. There was a deliberate addition of supremacist elements ( the KKK as most saavy people know is riddled by FBI informants). Then there was a deliberate stand down of the police department in a city run by neocon, neoliberal types who commute and work in the DC swamp. Then a motley crew of Antifa and other virtue signalling ( yes, Code Pink) elements had a self righteous field day.
The Donald attempting to keep the peace made a neutral remark about the blame game being played out and was excoriated for it. Please note Charlottesville was a Psyche op American Style organized by folks who organize such things such as overseas color revolutions in their day jobs.
The guy who ran over the girl panicked or maybe he did it out of rage—either way…he is the sacrificial revenge victim of choice these days. (As I understand it he was backing up in order to flee a crowd????) Remember how Antifa tried the bit about mobbing a car in Portland, Oregon a few months later and the old man stepped out to confront them and then drove off? He made clear he felt his life was in danger. After that, Antifa backed off from that street maneuver .
Everyone now knows that if you are surrounded by a mob, you film it if possible, then later upon escape call the cops and say you felt that your life was in danger so you drove off in self defense and that you are concerned that maybe someone might have been hurt in your effort to preserve your own life.
The trial was hardly really covered as his guilt was assumed. The crying mother of the dead girl received many 15 minute sound bites of fame as the Press attempted to manipulate her into condemning Trump.
It is very difficult not to become cynical when outrage is so obviously selective. Dead babies in the Rio Grande : cry me a river ; dead babies in the Mediterrean: flooded with grief! ….Dead babies in Yemen? wha? Dead babies in Gaza? wha? wha? Dead babies in Caracas Children’s Hospital black out: wha?? Dead babies in Iran: wha?? Dead babies in Donbass? Donbass? where is Donbass?
That’s what like to call a holy rant.
I’m up with mundo !
Kudos for your post and especially the last alinea.
I guess there is the friction: between morality and geopolitics, though the second tries to disguise as the first, and most zombies fall for it.
Cheers, Rob
Rejoice and make haste make hay all ye holy ranters while the sun still shines before it is too late and the unhallowed unholy silence wrought by fear and suppression, bans and snuffs all of us.

Yes. ras,,,yes. You go!!! Every once and awhile I fall into rant just like clearing out my carburators of fast driving 120miles to a hot springs retreat near Mt. Shasta . I did manager to hold back on how everyone is kissing MbS’s you-know-what at the G-20 though.
Small Potatoes, Big Potatoes
The individual person is small potatoes in the Grand Scheme of Things (except from the standpoint of their creative potential in the Realm of Real and Valid Ideas …………and Sean is right…… that at present the Entire Cryptosphere is small potatoes (but watch those ideas, those “seeds”….LOL) in comparison to mature, regulated markets.
However, it is the dynamic between the Micropshere and the Macrosphere that is the most fascinating in the Universe.
Ergo, the personal touch, the small potatoes that even a Dennis can easily relate to……….in the context of Bigger Things…like BRI ..or the rest of the Galaxy…or even this solar system………which he simply could not digest…and refused to even try.
So I use LF…..the film-maker dreamer who finally focussed, several weeks later…..on my bringing BSV to his attention…….after a 400% rise:
he emailed me:
“I admit I completely totally undoubtedly blew it. So I attempted to but as much as I could afford yesterday and the app states …”
Oh dear! Where are the Innate instincts of the Hunter……in his DNA?
I consoled him and tried to push him to think…….:
“Don’t beat yourself up!
It’s a confusing space with a lot of “noise” and distractions within it.
I happened to have a LOT more free time than most Cryptards (this is not just those late to the Crypto-Party….it includes some of the earliest….THAT DON’T YET “GET” some basic realities outlined below……) and I was LOOKING FOR SIGNAL….not “noise of my preference”.
When I saw that BSV was UNIQUE….and CSW made others in the space look like out of control school children I focused on the signal:
If BSV “wins” it gobbles up perhaps EVERYTHING ELSE in the space….including BTC! BTC (and the rest) go to ZERO “in moments” of “Chain Death” and BSV is left standing at 6-7 figures USD….depending on the time frame…in years into the future. UNIQUE POTENTIAL!
Nothing else in crypto has anything like THAT ambition, that vision!”
Including for societal gain…not just personal…….which is the smallest of “small potatoes” in the Long Run…that almost no one will give a hoot about in 50 or 100 years.
So, I’m not writing this little personal vignette with LF …to upset ioan…or amarynth or anyone, really. But later in this Cafe I will link these small, (tiny!) potatoes……..to some much, much bigger ones.
Now THAT …may be a bit harder to take. But I think the mental workout….can’t hurt…in the longer run!
Bro, as I don’t expect anybody to follow me on the astrological trail,
but to follow t h e i r personal non-ego-trail, ( according to horoscope) it’s good enough to me, having you following your monetarian potatoes with real sober passion.
If you capture dry-land, I might settle on it.
Cheers from hot Central Europe
No Bro 93, you didn’t upset me at all, I told you about empathy, remember ? As you are my friend here for a long time, I would really like you to make a good investment with the BSV , sincerely ! you know why ? just as a reminder : we talked about art, so, in case you got a good reward from BSV , you’ll be in a better position to buy my drawings, my art. It will be indeed a win-win deal for both of us. In my view, time is limited,
I don’t think either of us has another 50 years to wait for the earthly paradise.
It is amusing for me what are thinking people here after reading the above lines of mine : is ioan cynical or what the heck ? Well, let me tell you what I think : I live with one foot on earth and with the other beyond, understood… or still not ?
…you earthly artist, you…lol. Funny how everyone’s able to be ‘materialist’ but us artists…
Peace, brother artists and art patrons!
Ye Medici’s of the Modern Age are in for a treat!
I have already offered to buy your sketches ioan…….. only I want them on display here. If we meet someday I will select the one for framing and complete payment.Or, there are other methods…DHL…..UPS, etc
In fact I made initial payment…weeks ago .1 BSV…..but you didn’t comprehend….what on earth that might even be….with Dennis’s chants of exorcism still reverberating here……..against any initials with “B” in them
There’s no Rush For Love or Money…maybe you’ll understand more………after this KLeine Kartoffelen Kafe.
Unsettled mind and emotions are entirely normal in a Great Life Change you are passaging.
Rest up! Recover greater strength and spirit for the later chapters of your life…….
Even at my older age than yours………it is A Time To Be Ready!
Bro, I am really unsettled by your renewed Ode to D***. I mean, this type has been banned for the sin of attracting too much attention to himself (“speaking always only about himself”, how shameful, since nobody else would do it – Bro? Would you? No, never… LOL… anyway…) and too many commentator’s commentaries mentioning him (mainly or even exclusively from your side, correct, Bro?), attracting or rather detracting too many cafe guests away from more serious considerations like the latest news from the kartoffel front.
Now, “banned” is in Internet culture the same thing as “excommunicated” in Catholic (Irish! shudder!) culture or unculture, and like our website has a structure that issues bans, catholicism had and has structures to issue excommunications, e.g. The Holy Office. The dear fathers there always took and still take their sad plight seriously, once banned… uh… excommunicated… LOL… anyway… meant banned… I mean excommunicated (cf “No means No” in protestant Feminism, it’s again about the same thing, a curse to ban… excommunicate… emasculate… unruly non-feminists… LOL… anyway), and if someone thought he could not follow the rules set by those Holy Fathers in that Holy Office (equalling a “contempt of court” by “siding with the enemy” and helping him to survive instead of dropping dead) had to go and meet his maker through passing on the case to the equivalent of an electric chair, The Holy Inquisition, who, before the invention of modern Electrictity through orthodox Nikola Tesla, helped themselves by starting the burning of an apostate with more rural tools, which fortunately worked even more reliably than those All American Electric Stakes. Yes – not abiding by a ban, I mean an excommunication… LOL… anyway…, meant a death sentence for everyone so frivolous to dare these devils… I mean these Holy Fathers… This Holy Office… this Holy Father.
In other words: does not the one who brings back and back and back someone rightly having been thrown out for this sin of having been mentioned or rather attacked again and again and again by you deserve to also get punished in kind and measure like his target? Ioan already hinted at this perspective of your’s, although wrapped in a bit of Aesopian language:
“Well, let me tell you what I think : I live with one foot on earth and with the other beyond, understood… or still not ?”
Ioan, obviously, does not play the role of inquisitor or executioner here, rather that of a tenderhearted Vera/Nadezhda/Lyubov’, as VV enumerated them. But – The Law is The Law! Or else???
OMG, it was, of course, not VV but BO… sorry!

I hope I don’t breach the rules of this blog if I confirm that Dennis has been banned. I needed to tell you this before anyone enters too deep in all kind of speculations.
Rules are made to be broken. On the other hand, some of us simply cannot be confined by someone or other’s rules. In a perfect world, there would not be a need for rules. Praise be to those who have offered us this wonderful Cafe to meet and break bread with each other. Let’s remember that the universe is sustained by acts of sacrifice, forgiveness and acceptance, and if someone has moved to ‘the room next door’ that too is for a reason. If we don’t get where the Spirit is trying to take us, comes a time it ( IT ) picks us up by the scruff and helps us along. No one is exempt from God’s tender, but tough, love….
In the 1960’s antiwar movement I was sometimes assigned to be a crowd monitor which meant watching and guiding my section of a mass march away from being hijacked by ultra leftist elements who desired violence…They would take people who had come in good faith with peaceful intentions and involve them if it suited their purpose in bloody action against the police whom they would have goaded into violence or into a risky action such as surrounding and beating on a car containing either an armed and furious driver or a dangerously panicking one .
the cops were predictable….the ultra leftists were also. Usually they liked breaking bank windows etc and it was easy to steer everyone away from that. But they did get clever.
One year they seized the initiative on Campus in alliance with CP and Maoist cadre. They called for an anti Dow Chemical recruiter protest to take place inside a campus building, in a lower floor from which there were only two staircases as escape. It was a total, devastating trap. My group refused to sponsor it or to take part in it. The Ultra leftists organized well, whipping up emotional outrage with glossy photos of crispy babies so many people were ready to put a stop to Dow Chemical, Now!!!
” It is a trap and diversion from the work of mass mobilization and will prove to be demoralizing, not radicalizing, in the end,” we said. Well, it was a devastating “success”—students were gassed, beat bloody and sent to the hospital. The ultra leftists wore the badge of self righteous martyrdom for years after that. My group was branded cowards of the Revolution and oddly enough BLAMED for the fiasco. It was a lesson in Virtue signalling 1960’s style. And Stalinist purge techniques .
The next year very few people showed up to protest Dow Recruiters on Campus And the recruiters were not hidden away as bait this time but were given rooms above ground with picture windows of the Lake. A security guard was posted at the end of the hall armed with a walkie talkie.
My cynicism comes well earned.
T-13 sounds like you and my Red-Pilled Sister (who confesses to having voted for “Hope and Change” Barry O…but now wants to see him in Guantanamo….LOL) had similar experiences on the Left Coast College Scene………in the sixties………
Her followup to my observations on the violence prone “student radicals” being dupes….if not outright establishment stringers like Bernadette Dohrn………….a half century ago and today:
“well.. my perspective of 50 years ago then and now are quite different universes… THEN we were relatively freshly returned to the US and after a lifetime of avoiding any political activism in the countries we were in, I felt that I had a right, even a duty, to actively participate to try to understand what was actually happening and to have a part in determining the courses ‘my’ country and communities take .. and while I had a much wider knowledge of the US’s international activities, I knew relatively little about the domestic activities in play… so I did come rather quickly to the conclusions you voice, but I also missed a lot of the details in the ‘larger’ picture.. then I didn’t realize to what extent.. now I realize that there are worlds I will never be able to fully grok every detail.. but have a constantly widening sense of the existence of such arenas..
though I did grasp one that very few seem to still: that the ‘bad guys’ are not nicely lined up according to socially or politically defined groups though a few groups/figureheads/examples may stand out in fairly clear view… and that there are very few reliably ‘good guys’ in the public purview.. nor are there many, if any, individuals or groups that consistently and comprehensively assess the FULL history and/or potential of situations and/or individuals… which is why it is imperative to do one’s own ‘research’ as deeply and widely as possible in any given frame.. and come to one’s own TENTATIVE conclusions.. I say tentative because my experience has shown me that as soon as one comes to a definitive conclusion, one immediately starts missing important and often contradictory data…
now ‘advocates of violence’.. whether dupes or instigators.. or fall back to evolutionary primitive states in the face of ‘no power’.. even the most pacifist generally seem to ultimately come to acceptance of a necessity for ‘violence’.. I still view it, including personally, as a break down in evolutionary brain function…1. being able to fully access and assess ALL available input.. 2. being able to consciously or unconsciously position and reposition all elements in a constant shuffle sorting for immediate to infinite resolutions.. and to tweak the play in flow with the goal always being the ‘infinite’ or furthest out possible resolution… violence does give an immediate and temporary ‘power’.. but it never ultimately ‘solves’.. instead it feeds the ongoing state of discord no matter how much that is pushed down beneath current visibility… ”
The context: I was 13 before staying in the US permanently….(and only 1 year in Texas…3rd grade…1958..The Hula Hoop Year….lol…… amongst 12 other years in the Middle East and South America) and my oldest sister was 17 when she landed permanently back here.
That little episode of dialogue started with this little snippet..8 days ago………ending her first message on the subject:
“NOTHING is simple and straight forward… but this does illuminate multiple corridors leading in the same direction apparently populated by the same tribe of rats.. what it does NOT do is exonerate other tribes of rats skirmishing in the same and similar corridors..

26,000 Scientists Oppose 5G Roll Out …

What do you think are the chances, Pavel, of such a united front from scientifists to ordinary people everywhere, to stop imposition of 5G?
… our future … the future, looks bleak, especially as most people do not recognise 5G radiation as a weapon in disguise. What a clever weapon it is in delivering what a lot of people desire, like Netflix, but a weapon non-the- less that mutates DNA of all living things. Look at the deceitful language … “smart meters” and “smart phones”.
There is a war going on … a subtle quiet ongoing intensifying war. When I see the world, east and west, eager to implement 5G networks I have to consider this a “uni-polar” (NWO) event, and thus I am skeptical of all “multi-polar” world scenarios.
My eyes are open … I see what I see, and the human race has a massive problem with its elite controlling psychopaths. The 5G towers will have to be made “inoperative” if the DNA of all life is to be kept intact. I consider 5G radiation to be warfare … soon to be world-wide warfare.
I see no sense and no logic, so this is psychopathic nonsense (MADness).
In Orwell’s “1984” … DNA was not “the enemy” !
From what I’ve read and know about it, everything you’ve said here is not untrue. It’s an unprecedented move against all of life, how cannot the moronic ‘heads’ behind it not see this?? 26,000 scientists petitioning, warning against it…what are these scientists for if not for this? Ive noticed the 5G base towers have been cropping up in the surrounding suburbs/region where I live in the south of Sydney. No one was told, no one was asked. There’s a swell of outrage beginning among the residents here.
I was privileged to become aware of a prophecy back in the early ’90’s warning that electro-magnetic radiation would become the bane of humankind; it will not be wiped out, but many will succumb. That’s if it goes ahead…
… listen and replace external enemy with internal enemy and tall legged heat ray machines with tall legged army of “cell-towers” every 500 metres or so … an invasion !

I’m thinking, there are devices that measure radiation and they might be useful in helping to assess whether
the above devices actually work. Ie; one could test the radiation levels and then plug in the ‘blushield’ and then do the trial again. That should indicate whether the radiation levels actually go down in the home when the blushield is turned on.

Mantle of Blue
I may not like what you do,
but resolve to let you be
you must walk the way that’s yours,
and I will try to set you free
I may not like where you go,
my heart is filled with care
but it would not be a kindness
to serve you sweeter fare
so off you go, off you fly
toward the noon-day sun,
I gave all I could, just as I should
and so my race is run
I may remember but I’ll let go
kissing the joy as it flies,
you will find the way that’s there
and work toward the prize
I may forget, I may act dumb
and call you by your name,
but you won’t hear, you’re far from here
seeking your fortune and fame
so off you go, off you fly –
hurry, my love, don’t be late!
I gave all I could, just as I should;
your mantle of blue awaits…
… there are positive steps we can take …
“Many people now realize that using Wi-Fi is not wise – both for security and health reasons. Wired Ethernet-based internet access goes a long way toward solving these issues. However, even a wired internet system can cause health effects if setup incorrectly. This is because of the electromagnetic interference (EMI) that many new modems and routers create. This EMI travels along your Ethernet cable to your computer and can become just as problematic as Wi-Fi from a health perspective.”

Here in Socal we have “Spanglish” …..a simultaneous mangling of the English and Spanish tongues.
Germans live in Russia and one of the world’s best pianists of the last century was Stanislav Richter.
I Imagine a similar blending of tongues in that area of the world I will dub “Russerman”….and will now employ it to reply to Mundo of Murnau:
Dankeschoen, Mundo!
Ich ponimao: “Chen” auf Deutsch znachit “malinki”. Ich nyet spreche mnoga Russerman, aber tolka ein bisCHEN, da!
And that brings me to one of my favorite German Lied: StanCHEN (A Little Serenade) by Franz Schubert, as sung by Dieter Fischer Diskau, with Spanish subtitles:
https://youtu.be/20S6S3XA6a4
It translates excellently into Spanish!
Not quite as well into English, which is not a “Romance” language as Spanish is:
Serenade
Silently my songs beg
Through the night to you;
Down into the quiet grove,
Darling, come to me!
Whispering, slim treetops rustle
In the moonlight;
The hostile eavesdropper’s ear
maid, fear not
Do you hear the Nightingales singing?
Oh! they implore you,
With the sounds of sweet laments
They Plead for me.
They understand the bosom’s longing,
Know love’s pain,
Stirring with their silvery tones
Every soft heart.
Let them also stir your breast,
Darling, listen to me!
Trembling I awaited you.
Come, make me happy!
I searched for a pure instrumental (piano) version by Richter…….. but instead found this:
https://youtu.be/2PaC9GiEvMM
Performed by Dmitri Bashkirov
красивый!!!!
Sviatoslav Richter never played Standchen, or at least was never recorded playing it. He was a superb Schubertian, in recital and accompanying Fischer-Dieskau and Peter Schreier in the Winterreise. Isaac Stern said in his biography that he heard Richter and Fischer-Dieskau performing the Winterreise in an old church in France, lucky devil, but no recording was made. Pity. Richter is my own favourite pianist, I must say. My favourite piano recording of Standchen was that of Grigory Ginzburg.
From t13 earlier:
“The guy who ran over the girl panicked or maybe he did it out of rage—either way…he is the sacrificial revenge victim of choice these days. (As I understand it he was backing up in order to flee a crowd????)”
Poor james fields, our great white hope, a sweet innocent babe victimised by the leftists running the gubmint and media…
The comment posted by t13 is the standard white supremecist tripe about fields and his crimes promoted by the far right. Like everything promoted by the far right, it is disinformation. IE, psywar.
White Nationalist James Fields Sentenced to Life in Prison Over Charlottesville Car Attack
https://sputniknews.com/us/201906281076089614-white-nationalist-james-fields-sentenced-to-life-in-prison-over-charlottesville-car-attack/
“James Fields Jr., an avowed white nationalist who drove his car into a crowd of antifascist counter-protesters in Charlottesville, Virginia, in August 2017, was sentenced to life in prison on 29 federal counts of hate crimes Friday.
The 22-year-old’s August 12, 2017, attack injured 35 people and killed one woman, Heather Heyer. Fields pleaded guilty to the 29 counts of federal hate crime charges in April as part of a plea bargain that saw a possible death penalty charge dropped from his case, the Washington Post reported.
The Ohio native was separately found guilty in December 2018 on one count of first-degree murder, five counts of malicious wounding, three counts of aggravated malicious wounding and one count of hit and run, Sputnik reported. He received a life term plus 419 years in state prison.
“The defendant’s crimes were so horrendous, and the maiming of innocents so severe, that they outweigh any factors” that Fields might cite in seeking leniency, chief prosecutor Christopher R. Kavanaugh wrote in a sentencing memo. “This is particularly true in light of the fact that he has demonstrated that he feels no remorse for his actions and continues to espouse his hateful ideology.”
In a December 2017 phone call between Fields and his mother noted in Kavanaugh’s filing, Fields told his mother about Heyer, “She is a communist … An anti-white, liberal. . . . It’s not up for questioning. She’s the enemy.”
What a cool dude, eh?
Vot Tak: my what stawmen you build!
No way, Jose, do I step in front of execution wall here for group mobbing!
Either you get what I was trying to analyze or you do not–take it or leave it. As for dealing with respectful commentators, I confine myself to the poets here.
t13
You defend fields. You insinuate those he attacked brought it on themselves. Claiming that pointing this out is a strawman is dishonest. You know very well what you were up to. The facts are there for all to see, fields is not a victim, the people he used his car to attack are the victims.

Her manager had died, she was stuck at home with a toddler. She yearned for an audience; without one, she says, you are just an amateur, like the thousands of great players out there – doctors, lawyers, engineers.
Searching for inspiration, she started reading about business strategy online. It’s not enough to make the world’s best mousetrap; you also have to advertise it, she learnt. She decided to apply the same principles to her music, to bring it to the masses.
And so she had a University student film her playing………..subsequently those hands creating sublime music captivated 46 million views on the internet……..
Then, another Russian pianist Irina Lankova, who can also play….but in addition speaks about the art…pretty well, creating new audiences, with her Piano Unveiled series:

And with that……I “call it a night”.
Mantle of Blue ( Version 2 )
I may not like to see you go
but resolve to set you free,
you must know the road you take
and I will try to let you be
I may not want to let you go
my heart is filled with care,
but it would not be a kindness
to serve you sweeter fare
so off you go, off you fly
toward the noon-day sun,
I gave all I could, just as I should
and now my work is done
I may remember, I may forget
kissing the joy as it flies,
I know you’ll find the way that’s there
and work toward the prize
I may act smart, I may be dumb
and call you by your name,
but you won’t hear, you’re far from here
seeking fortune and fame
so off you, go, off you fly –
hurry, my love, don’t be late!
I gave all I could, just as I should;
your mantle of blue awaits…
Amazing what letting the idea settle and speak to you, can do…
I’m not quite speechless, but here are the lyrics of the song from the film Aladdin :
Speechless
Here comes a wave
Meant to wash me away
A tide that is taking me under
Swallowing sand
Left with nothing to say
My voice drowned out in the thunder
But I won’t cry
And I won’t start to crumble
Whenever they try
To shut me or cut me down
I won’t be silenced
You can’t keep me quiet
Won’t tremble when you try it
All I know is I won’t go speechless
‘Cause I’ll breathe
When they try to suffocate me
Don’t you underestimate me
‘Cause I know that I won’t go speechless
Written in stone
Every rule, every word
Centuries old and unbending
Stay in your place
Better seen and not heard
Well, now that story is ending
‘Cause I
I cannot start to crumble
So come on and try
Try to shut me and cut me down
I won’t be silenced
You can’t keep me quiet
Won’t tremble when you try it
All I know is I won’t go speechless
Speechless
Let the storm in
I cannot be broken
No, I won’t live unspoken
‘Cause I know that I won’t go speechless
Try to lock me in this cage
I won’t just lay me down and die
I will take these broken wings
And watch me burn across the sky
Hear the echo saying I…
Won’t be silenced
Though you wanna see me tremble when you try it
All I know is I won’t go speechless
Speechless
‘Cause I’ll breathe
When they try to suffocate me
Don’t you underestimate me
‘Cause I know that I won’t go speechless
All I know is I won’t go speechless
Thank you for sharing Ras. Not so long ago you posted here in the Cafe a Russian poem, a translation and there was some discussion about that. Translating a poem from one language to the other is very hard, to keep the rhythm and also the original message and as you say, that of the poet, a poem could be like a crossword, becoming a subject of interpretation.
Quo Vadis?
I met some travelers before dawn on the Open Road.
“Bro, where are you going (with this)?”, they inquired, with puzzled faces.
Near the horizon hung a slight sliver of a crescent moon.
“Hmmm! Do I even know?”, I asked myself.
“There are so many choices! Signposts behind me give me some suggestions for my next step forward. Or to the right, or left. Up or down or around the hill. A mental map is in the making, but where, oh where AM I really going? Which landmark to select next? What if I encounter a river or a lake or sea?”
One potato, two potato, three potato, four!
Five potato, six potato, seven potato…..OR?
It isn’t the first time. I met some travelers before!
Some have travelled far more than I………… and those travel reports should not go unheeded.
There’s Pepe in the Khyber Pass, and Ramin knows The Way from India to Greece. And not just geographically! Maps are mental and cultural, as well, and are in flux. All is change!
I’ve been to Istanbul…but not Sebastopol! I’ve been to Palestine but not Israel.
But I read a book about it! I think the title was QUO VADIS! No: Exodus.
They went everywhere.
Eric Zeusse…who has read the Donald’s Mental Map……and pronounced it “Stupid”…. would certainly never choose to “go there” physically OR mentally.
He’s not too keen on Paul, either. What about Peter?
Quo Vadis Quote:
“The modern usage of the phrase refers to a Christian tradition regarding Saint Peter. According to the apocryphal Acts of Peter, Peter is fleeing from likely crucifixion in Rome at the hands of the government, and along the road outside the city he meets a risen Jesus. In the Latin translation, Peter asks Jesus “Quo vadis?”,…”
Jesus says ,”Rome. If you’re not going to be in Rome to accept martyrdom, I intend to be martyred twice.”
Peter turns around, ….of course.
It might be a story or a movie but might it not be so stupid……
Maybe we need to find out more!
Quo Vadis has something to do with the novel EXODUS. I also wanted to leave this place behind once (1974) and chart a southwest course to NZ or AUSSLAND.
Uris also wrote a novel HAJ…I see…online (Pilgrimage ….it means…..which could also be stupid or a Zionist plot, for all I know. The first three words of Chapter One, I just learned online are: “I am Ishmael.”
I’ll have to read it one of these days…..just to try to retrace my nativity origin back to just west of the Persian Gulf but in 1974, I was travelling by Melville’s Ishmael, not Uris……because I had never heard of Haj,………… even though I was on one, of sorts.
And Lo and Behold the name on the bow of the San Diego Tuna Clipper was……Quo Vadis!
Don’t believe me?
I may be stupid, but I don’t lie: http://www.vesseltracking.net/ship/quo-vadis-7120237
I went on board. I met the captain and checked out the altar in the galley. But instead of Southwest, my course changed to due East….and my Dart and I arrived…a couple of weeks later…..in Key West.
Where Are We Going?
Who knows!
Some of my signposts are next.
“Where?”
That depends!”, I answered the travellers on the Open Road
” What signposts have YOU seen?”….I asked them in my dream……… hoping to compare travel notes.
CHABAD LEADER, MESSIAH MENACHEM MENDEL SCHNEERSON ON HIS PLANS TO DESTROY SLAVS
This speech [a letter sent to the newspaper] of Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the Chabad Leader and Messiah (the Lubavitcher Rebbe), was published in the Vologda newspaper “Slavyanin», N-4 (32), 2001 in Russia.
Following the publication, the court was unable to prosecute its editor, V.F. Popov, under trumped up charges under Article 282, [incitement of national hatred] as he operated on the facts, and several Russian scientists stood up for him, including Academician Y. K. Begunov and Doctor of Law O.G. Korotayev.
This speech was uttered by Menachem Mendel Schneerson in 1994. There is much debate about its authenticity, as once argued about the validity of “The Protocols of the Elders of Zion,” but it is an indisputable fact that almost all the goals, laid out by Schneerson, have been achieved by now. This speech is simply the application of Talmud to Ukraine and Russia. Talmud says: Jews should murder and enslave goyim worldwide. This speech says: Jews should murder and enslave goyim in Ukraine and Russia. Yes, the speech by Menachem Mendel Schneerson is monstrous. For a normal person, it is hard to believe that a religious leader can be a MURDERER, and that the religion can be THE IDEOLOGY OF MURDER. That is why, the text of this essay has every criminal passage from the speech next to the criminal passage from Talmud. The face of the Zionist Messiah also speaks for itself: it is the face of a TERRORIST, full of hatred and menace.

Slavs, and among them Russians – are the most unbending people in the world. Slavs are unbending as a result of their psychological and intellectual abilities, created by many generations of ancestors. It is impossible to alter these genes. Slav, Russian, can be destroyed, but never conquered. That is why this seed is subject to liquidation, and, at first, a sharp reduction in their numbers.
First of all, we will divide the Slavic nations (of 300 million, half of them Russians) into the small countries with weak and severed connections. For this, we will use our old method: Divide and conquer. We will try to pit these countries against each other, and suck them into civil wars for the sake of mutual destruction.
The Ukrainians would think that they are fighting against the expansionist Russia and struggling for their independence. They will think that they have finally gained their freedom, while they become fully subdued by us.
The same will be thought by Russians, as though they defend their national interests to return their lands, “illegally” taken away from them, and so on.
We will scare the cattle with several court cases (such as the trial of an anti-Semite Ostashvili, followed by his destruction) and other methods (radio, television – frightening movies, such as revenge of the Israeli Mossad super-spies for killing of Jews). We will frighten the cattle so bad that not a single hair will fall from the head of a Jew, while the Slavs will be shot in packs, destroyed by thousands – on the borders, where the Jews do not serve in peacekeeping forces, via terrorist acts, and via criminal and professional killings [such as the acts of terrorist at Beslan school that took hundreds of lives, in the Moscow subway, and so on].
Aiding and abetting the extermination of Slavs of all stripes and colours is somewhat of a death wish that these people carry, though that is certainly not confined to Slavs, but to all human beings. Briefly, the death wish is ingrained deep within the human consciousness and probably has it’s roots in our collective psyche dating back to primitive man, when life was unbelievably brutal, unpredictable, and so on and many saw death as a way of escape. At bottom of the death wish is the individual sacrificing himself in what he imagines is an impending union with “mother earth”, the “ancestors”, the “sky God” whatever image or form one may give it, an energy, force, being, entity, greater than the individual self ( and all the responsibilities that that entails ).
The fact is, we all carry this death wish, and it is in a constant battle with the spiritual forces within man – the forces of divine love or charity that look beyond the individual self and are able – through love, to transcend the selfish concerns we each have as individuals and so on. This death wish manifests in a number of ways, mainly the slow suicide that many of us enact through the countless bad habits we develop to the detriment of our physical, psychic and spiritual well-being. Addictions of all kinds, for example, that polarise the individual to unnatural behaviour. By unnatural behaviour I mean anything that becomes dominant in the individual’s world, and pulls away from the body’s needs as far as balance in diet/nature, everything that has to do with us as being a conduit for spiritual forces being railroaded by the individual into a sort of ‘system’ if you like that then exists as the dominant force in the individual’s life. He is in effect, cut off from his fellow man, from the flow of Divine Spirit, lives in a kind of vacuum, much like the denizen depicted in futuristic movies who subsist on some subterranean seam of water, some mutated form of existenece that is not really existence as it should/could be, but a tragic shadow of it.
Back to the Slavs; we are in some ways our own worst enemy, as our instinct ( the negative instinct, at least ) is to double down and “go out in a blaze of glory”, as the foe is too mighty to comprehend even, let alone, beat, so we hunker down, waiting to die. I’ve seen this in Macedonia where the West, read USA, has entirely defeated this proud, hard-working people who have not done any wrong to anyone. In Macedonia, henceforth known to the EU, the USA and even Russia, in a move which surprised me, as the R. of Northern Macedonia, everything Macedonian from history, culture, the name, ideals, church is dissolved, and sold off to willing neighbours and esp. fake identities, Greece and Bulgaria ( with apologies to all good-intentioned Greeks and Bulgarians, but it is nothing new that these people are hybrid ‘nationalities’, but hey, let’s leave that discussion for another time…). In Macedonia prime achievement of the Great Satan, is to keep Macedonians at each other’s throats while the EU lackeys work efficiently to see the country soon disappear and eventual division between Serbia, Albania, Greece, Bulgaria. Pet project of the British ambassador, one Charles Garet who was inseparable from ‘US Ambassador’ Jess Bailey, a pair of queasy assholes that made me want to vomit every time I looked at them – was division of Macedonia into 4 cantons, so readily available for assimilation into aforementioned 4 neighbors of Macedonia. So, Macedonia is dead; the remnants of one of the greatest civilizations that once walked the earth! Today the name is taken and won by a “Greece”. What is a “Greece”??? Pray tell? An insecure assembly of various ethnicities hobbled together under a name that is promoted by Western daddies as the “cradle of democracy”. But, lo, now they not only gave the world democracy, they also are Macedonians!! Their mortal enemy of old. Bulgarians are another tragic example of confused people who today celebrate San Stefanska Bulgaria, like Greek “Megali Idea” it espouses a “greater Bulgaria” which claims anything and everything under the sun on proposed territory incl. Rep. of Macedonia is “Bulgarian”. Non fascist EU overlooks such pretensions toward neighbouring countries where both Bulgaria and Greece is concerned. And so the fairy tale goes. In Macedonia today Albanian regions are thriving with kindergardens, schools, roads, infrastructure, kanalizacija, etc. etc. is booming. It is not required that they pay taxes, electricity, they are able to buy diplomas, are exempted from any ‘criminality’, get away literally with murder! Macedonian regions are starved economically, poisoned if possible ( that too is another story ), are harassed, ridiculed, outlawed for practising their culture which is centuries, milennia old. In Macedonia now, you have sharp division of ordinary Macedonians who are classed as dirty, uneducated, lost in the past, and lackeys of Empire who receive generous hand-outs from USofA, EU, Soros etc.
So Macedonia disappeared, Macedonia; the cradle of the Slavic world! Gone. No one raised a finger and the Macedonians themselves ( “elite” ) were the perpetrators of the whole nefarious scenario. Chastised, ridiculed, corrupted. It’s a cautionary tale, or the weakness of human beings and their lust for the mental passions, greed, attachment and so on. In Orthodox Macedonia today, if you want a sex-change operation, the government will subsidize it for you. So welcome to the new, same as the old, only much, much more effective. Personally, I don’t think the West can be beaten by Russia/China, but they have formed an effective strategic union and this will hasten Empire’s fall, it will fall on it’s own sword. Then skirmishes will begin, but not for at least another decade or two. Apologies for the sad tale, this is simply reality.
But Dimitar I have read from Macedonians that the Macedonian Albanian population is actually significantly lower than claimed – and that is why they keep putting off a census and why they rammed the deals through without doing a census.
In the previous census from back in the early 2000’s there was a large amount of fraud and I remember that Macedonia was threatened by the international community to not publish the results (until they were properly manipulated by the international community). The true figures, according to Macedonians are 16-18%, and passport and other records show it is closer to 16% than 18%.
It’s also said that their population in Macedonia is declining.
So what do you know about that?
“Macedonian regions are starved economically, poisoned if possible ( that too is another story ), are harassed, ridiculed, outlawed for practising their culture which is centuries, milennia old.”
Tell us the poisoning story.
I am wondering why, though, that Macedonians never had any sympathy for Serbs in Kosovo, as they were subject to even worse – and at a quicker pace – than what Albanians are doing to Macedonians.
Albanians are indeed somewhere around 15-17% of total population. They are exempt from all normal resposibilities of citizens as they are American favourites in the region. Many Albs. have dual citizenship that spans Albania, Kosovo, Macedonia, Serbia etc. so their numbers are artificially inflated, and if you are aware of the region, you will know that controls that are normally imposed, do not apply where Albs. are concerned. Many Alb. families are large, with familiy members having to immigrate far and wide, to seek employment. Switzerland, Italy, etc. have large Alb. populations and therefore, a large amount of the Macedonian Albs. are not legally allowed, acc. to so-called European guidelines, to participate in Census’ as those who dwell outside the country for more than a certain amount of time, maybe one year, not sure, should be listed as citizens of their host countrty first and foremost, and not their original country. A census in 2001, was characterised by Xavier Solana’s famous statement, “We do not care what you do, so long as the results turn out that Albs. are 25%…” of total population. Then they were somewhere about 13/15 %. This was necessary in order to impose the Ohrid Framework Agreement – outcome of terrorist war imposed by US/NATO in 2001 – where Albs. supposedly fought for greater human rights. They were awarded the right to speak their language in regions where they were dominant, such as in upper Western Macedonian city, Tetovo, Gostivar, Debar, soon to include Struga, just north of Ohrid, and east toward Kičevo. They now have Albanian as second language in MKD, and it will soon be mandatotory for Macedonian children to learn Albanian from kindergarten. So MKD is finished, thank you to idiot MKD politicians mainly…
The poisining is occurring in Bitola for example, where regulations that should close down REK, a large coal power plant; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/REK_Bitola once an economic mainstay in the region is spewing fine dust over the city ( a fine black film over everything ) and so Bitola has one of the highest cancer rates in Europe. There are similar stories in other cities, which I don’t have details, but the end if it’s detrimental to Macedonians its meant to be left alone. Skopje has a Refinery, Okta, which idiot Macedonian Premier Ljupčo Georgievski sold to some Greek, back in 2001/2 which enriched him personally, but it also spews deadly chemicals over Skopje and Skopje is up there with the most polluted cities in the world. Regulations do not constrain Greek owners so nothing was/is ever done. These are main poisoning examples I was referring to.
Prilep too, famous for it’s aromatic tobacco, is surrounded by one of the world’s highest quality seams of marble in the world. Instead of Macedonians benefitting from their natural resources, the rigjts to mine the marble were sold to Greek private contractors who have almost exclusive rights to take the marble out of MKD and store and market it worldwide from Greece. I have seen trucks ferrying massive slabs of marble out of the city on their way to sunny Greece, a common sight.
It is not true that Macedonians feel no sympathy for Serbs in Kosovo, of course they do. This is brotherly peoples who lived together in Yugoslavia and Macedonians always feel closest to Serbs as opposed to any of neighbouring peoples. Serbs ( many/most ) feel same way about Macedonians esp. because they are similarly hated by US/EU/NATO. However, Macedonian population is not allowed to show any sympathy toward Serbs ( same as they are not allowed to show any sympathy or affiliation to Russia ). They do privately, but politicians are all under US command, so cannot openly do so. Any sort of unifying of normal Serb and Macedonian population is prevented by both Serb and Macedonian politicians with a number of them openly being provocative toward Macedonia such as Ivica Dačić, who does not let a chance go by to put the heel into Macedonians. We only do not like nationalistic Serbs who say there is ‘no Macedonians, they are southern Serbs’, etc. and those who side with Greece against us, ie; those who are enarmoured of imagined Orthodox brotherhood between Serbia, Greece, Russia, who say Macedonia is Greek etc.

The Art of Interpretation
What’s your version of past events?
Of motives, purposes…and all intents?
What can be seen between the lines,
Midst light passions and dark designs?
What is unheard between the notes,
What imaginary, softly fleeting floats…
In air, sweeter than the written score
And history said to have come before!
Intuition may be your steadiest guide
If informed by reason, which confides
Limits to the extent of dizzying height
The skylark reaches in its joyous flight.
Not every molecule of air it breathes
Nor every leaf below, on all the trees
On earth must we too wearily calculate
To so take flight and embrace our fate.
Preparation can’t ever be complete
When finally done, it’s near obsolete.
Our growth pushes us from the nest,
Everything all at once–put to the test!

Dancing on Tune
by ioan
A bit of confusion is hanging in the air
A bit of illusion is sitting on the chair,
The actors that may be are dancing on the tune
Smiling, shaking hands, got drunk from that perfume
Today, tomorrow, or in the coming years,
Postponement is the deal, postponement of the fear
The fear is there, is hanging in the air,
For peaceful purpose, sitting on those chairs
The actors, are making deals in East
The good, the bad, the ugly and the beast.
Postponement of the fear, and illusion sitting on the chair ! That is funny and so true !!!
This cafe has had wonderful poems and contributions and thoughts and more, what a feast…
Broad minds, new and old, whatever one may think of Jared Diamond, he has a broad mind (and sounds like Saker on interview ;) and J Sather, he is fine in my view, there are so many, and with wide encompassing minds or/and upbeat thinking and ideals.

Just a “littlr” humor about our trump family:
https://www.rt.com/usa/463058-ivanka-trump-lagarde-g20-video/
Whatever; it goes with the total package. After all, she and foreign agent husband “earned” $135 mil in 2018. Starting to rival hillary’s pay to play.
… from Iran’s “Financial Tribune” …
France, Germany and the United Kingdom informed participants that INSTEX had been made operational and available to all EU member states and that the first transactions are being processed …
https://financialtribune.com/articles/business-and-markets/98681/eu-says-instex-operational
( and Washington is barking … again )
@Павел (Paul)
The main wrench is not the transaction system but that the US can sue the companies (because they also operate in the US of course) for violating the US’s sanction regime and impose fine sums only limited by imagination at the houses of insanity…so it’s just a lip service thing and to keep posture for the EU while the companies ALL had to abandon trade with Iran – of course.
But nonetheless a good thing to have for the future and adding inertia to the demise of the $ as world currency
Some Signposts I have Seen of Late on The Information Highway
If this gets too long, then it belongs in one of The Four Community Cellar Potato Sorting Bins:
1. Small Potatoes
2. Big Potatoes
3. Rotting Potatoes (Vodka still)
4. Seed Potato Eyes for Spring Planting
Actually the seed for this comment dropped into my peripheral vision 8 days ago.
These are just what I would call Significant Signs that I choose not to ignore. I wouldn’t stake my life on any of them! In fact, I’d like to see quite a bit more evidence where they came from, to understand them more………..
However, IMHO their esoteric significance to date…….comes from their different and overlapping….reinforcing, in fact, perspectives that build probability of truth or relevance…..rather than weaken that probability.
Their exoteric (easily grasped by most people) qualities are virtually nil. Engineers be warned!
You could say they are mostly mere potato “eyes” or buds, and are still small and of wholly unproven potential. Fair enough! However, I don’t ignore anything that could have extremely rapid growth and overarching significance.
So it has been with “Q”…then that growth seemed to level off…..as general apathy for the number 17 set in.
Dr Craig Wright’s 17 graduate degrees?? Yawn. Wake me up when something REAL happens!
Fasten your seat belts. This will not be a very agreeable ride for most ANY of you, I predict. We’re about to hit The Reality Wall! And evidently the Wailing One, as well……
Signpost # 1 and # 2 are Q & CSW related and the polemics to force your eyes away…AND ….are getting ….well, “rather graphicly Anti-Bibi & Donald”, shall we say:
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c2f4765c50a42c84bae31c17f1fbaf75ac824e978cf741770a8f18da1a5ed03a.gif
Vot Tak won’t be (too??) shocked or opposed, initially, I don’t suppose. However, I will issue an advisory to the Nice English Lady …not to click. Potentially Offensive to Some Audiences!
Let’s just say some of these Alt-Righters ain’t buying the “Israel is Last” Hopium….one iota. Or are they FBI?? Or MI-6? Mossad???
Discernment and strong stomachs…………will be severely tested in the days ahead. LOL.
Now that was definitely “going down”…very, very low…and you know what we do “When they go low.”, right??
We go high!
And some say Jordan Sather is smokin’ somethin’ …and is TOO high, but Red Pilled Sister agrees with me, and says about
Signpost # 1 Big Q Potato https://youtu.be/aCfOGluhEKI
The Battle For Disclosure Jordan Sather
“he has a very light and personable way of ‘explaining’ the ‘Q’ operation and by extension ‘The Plan’…”
That’s the plan the first image says sucks, BTW. A slight divergence of opinion makes for less boredom and a more interesting and debatable situation! So, “It’s all good!”
Donald says we’ll find out. I remain undecided on The Plan and Its Last Component, Israel. Why come to conclusions prematurely, too rapidly?
I mean, Assad is still head of state of Syria, Venezuela is not regime changed yet, the Korean Peninsula is headed for peaceful reunification….so…”What’s not to like?”

World Traveller’s Signpost # 2 Saturday June 22 …the Snakes (that’d be the Fucker Berg Crypto…Libra ….”scales”….get it?? and Sparklers (that’d be The Fourth………this coming Thursday) Edition:
https://www.bitchute.com/video/Ok01SiNUc0A/
Sorry, I can’t position Bitchute in between precise minutes and seconds like we can do with you tube. So, for busy potato sorters, I recommend starting at:
55 minutes 15 seconds and stopping for a few minutes of guffawing over a Ben Garrison’s Crypto-Mania cartoon with EIGHT new Deep State additions, besides FB’s LIBRA.
Esoteric Conclusion:
“Scales” on snakes weighed on Libra’s FB Deep State Satanic Scales (think Nervi Hall….Vatican City) may connote evil but to say Bitcoin SV “scales”….is a good thing.
Same word, different meaning: Global adoption is possible for a platform that “scales”..that can do more transactions per second than Visa or Mastercharge. However….without that……….you’ve got a “shitcoin”…..that can’t scale…not a snake by the tail. Let’s be clear. Confusing as it may be, initially, I grant you!.
In addition to LIBRA, the Cabal is giving us
1. Mayor Pete’s ButtCoin PBC
2. RINO Coin (All talk, No Action)
3. BitchCoin… Pay for Play BHRC ………and 5 more.
My Goodness! It’s a Deep State Crypto-mess!
But Opportunity is the flip side of the Messy Crisis Coin, as the Chinese character for Crisis tells us! So welcome The Mess!
(It pays richly, spiritually as well as financially…artistically, culturally, politically, etc, etc. Remain undaunted……)
Once the cartoon and Way of The Dao sinks in, then I recommend you stop at 58 minutes and 26 seconds for the Shot of Craig S Wright with his “Punisher” T-Shirt on!
NOW, This is where amarynth may simply “lose it”….so I’ll be nice and gentle:
Craig and Vitalik are not friends and we like Russia….but every Russian is not the Cat’s Meow…even if they are into crypto and even if that Vitalik one (ETH) made her come out way, way ahead of the game getting into ETH under $1 in the earliest days of Vitalik Groupiehood , the Downside of Crypto Upside …is an inflated bank account…with an Ego to match!
Success, with the Elevation of The Ego…Can Lead to DOWNFALL!
Vitalik’s ETH is almost $300 today….but down from $1200 December 2017. Up double from most of the past 18 months. But Price is Irrelevant! As are short term increases in heart rate and breathing, btw. And it’s nice that he got along with Putin, but I’m staying pat with my Putin T-Shirt and passing on a Buterin one.
Moral of the Story:
Scaling and Mass-Adoption are what separates Small Potatoes Cryptos of very limited shelf life…from more potentially significant, Civilization Improving Evolutionary Change. Over years…not days.
Besides, guys, a silly application built on Etherium called Kripto-Kitties could not even scale..and the whole ETH blockchain bogged down with people mating crypto cats to each other in cyber-space and producing endless new varieties of crypto kittens, for their crypto-retarded amusement, littering (pun intended) the blockchain….with…well….Kittie Litter!
Meow, meow!
If you think through what Craig’s Reasonable Conversation Channel is saying at 58 min 26 seconds (freeze it there) and if you have a bit of TDS as most sophisticated Multi-Polar World Advocates do, it may begin to dawn on more than amarynth that if you didn’t hate CSW before, (because he wasn’t even on your radar) you can start now, and put Crazy Bad Aussie Man in the same Loony Bin with Stupid Orange Man.
When your pulse returns to normal consider this article:
https://craigwright.net/blog/bitcoin-blockchain-tech/the-genetic-fallacy/ and reconsider hasty judgment based on the false premises of PoSM (Proof of Social Media).
So the jury is still out, in the case of my judgment. So, I’m suspending it until the jury is in.
However I will stick my neck way out there, and say that if I HAD to render judgment right now it would be:
1. Orange Man is not alone… or Stupid…or he would be Dead Orange Man…long before now.
2. The “Q” Phenomenon has something to do with his outlasting a long list of Deep State operatives…and his NOT starting any new wars…yet.
3. Real Bitcoin….now BSV……WAS invented by Dr Craig S Wright who IS Satoshi Nakamoto. They are on the same team and Wright’s dad was in Aussie Military Intel…which like US Military intel may even have a national sovereignty faction.
4. That invention of Satoshi’s with admitted help from friends (Dave Kleiman, especially) is still “small potatoes”, as Sean has observed…but the growth potential, both personally and civilizationally is “off the charts”…so don’t confine it to ANY bin yet!
MAYBE!…….??????……
No guarantees! But I’d suspend over hasty judgment, keep the above in your peripheral vision….and find out more!
Now, it’s getting late, this potato crop sorting training exercise has been TOTALLY exhausting………..and it’s time to relax, kick back with some popcorn and take in a movie…..or TWO!:

What The ___ …….What’s THIS????
https://youtu.be/jjiiFkYSOXY?t=564
The friggin’ flick is called Lord Timmy and the Mystery of the Last Master!
So far so good, but grok the movie poster:
“Can you crypto THIS?”, it asks! With the BSV dragon logo hidden in plain sight!
As well as, “Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?”
Stop it!
Next they’ll have Special Cameo Appearance by the Real “Q”!!
Wait: They are signing up a real Hollywood actress without Harvey Weinstein’s executive replacements….and….and she’s kinda cute! Gotta go thru SAG and her agent and everything 100% legit…..Ted says…
https://youtu.be/jjiiFkYSOXY?t=1711
But i-’s (was) happening Now! (Live, on air, and we’re par-icipa-ing…we’re MAKING a Movie, lads!)
Ted Rivera explains that for as little as $20 USD (in BSV, of course….about 0.10 BSV) you may have minimum share of the copyright (as long as shares last) for this film about “Bad Aussie Man”/Good Satoshi….and it’s got Aliens and Deep State Villains and Human Traffickers…(“Dark to Light….Q”) .the Whole Nine Yards, IOW ………..and the Cockney Boys are raving and tripping over themselves in the troll box, pledging BSV to be Movie Mogulettes.
MyMovies.us Ted Rivera. Has 2-3 flicks in the planning……….
The troll box tells the story of the live response, Friday:

Brilliant, mind blowing, inspiring. Your best show yet Shem. I am inspired to donate BSV to make history.
Bro: “But Wait! There’s MORE!”:

Neon’s an Anti-Hollywood screenwriter. I’m hookin’ him up with MyMovies.us Ted Rivera. Monday morning
More popcorn, y’all??
Later, guys!
But don’t worry:
Neon says
“This article has taken me a while… because I wanted to make sure I did the subject justice.
What follows is pretty mind-bending, but important to keep in mind and consider, moving forward. Just know that in the end, regardless of where you land in relation to this subject … Everything is going to be OK….Keep an open mind, and if this ends up like reading an alternate history, that’s because… it largely is.”
The part I liked the best in Neon’s latest article is where the Dulles Brothers, The Bushes, Kissinger and other Cabal members conclude a Special Treaty with the Aliens, exclusive to the USA and no other nation………. And are subsequently outraged when evidence comes in that the aliens are also dealing with the USSR!
Maybe the Aliens took some briefings from some American Indian Chiefs and decided the treaties with Atlanticist Earthlings were not worth the paper they were written on! LOL
Makes for a great movie script, any way you cut it, NEON.
Why am I seeing elements of Dennis in your posts bro? Is Maryann walking away? Should I start to construct a poem for you?
In terms of elements one could construct the general number of global posts evidencing typical reactionary responses based upon negative and limited emotional intelligence’s such as suspicion, sarcasm, envy, hatred, scorn, to name just a few, as the species of atom having the same number of protons in their atomic nuclei.
Yet does that have anything to do w/brain function?
In 2020, the Olympic Games are held in Tokyo, Japan.
Of course not only and alone in Tokyo, but in Japan anyway.
There is a slight flaw, however, that I would invite athletes to think twice before competing there: the country is radioactive, and that is being covered up.
Just read this article, an interview with Dr. Helen Caldicott, about the health conditions due to Fukushima: https://www.globalresearch.ca/fukushima-an-ongoing-global-radiological-catastrophe-a-huge-coverup-dr-helen-caldicott/5672265
Now, she is anti-nuclear energy, and it’s a bit ‘gloom and doom’, but it’s a coverup.
I’m not in favour of nuclear energy myself, too. But a few weeks ago I hit upon this great article of Dmitry Orlov: http://cluborlov.blogspot.com/2019/06/nuclear-meltdown-at-hbo.html
It’s a long one, he ridicules the HBO series about Chernobyl and describes a few nuclear accidents in detail, but the hammer is in the end.
Orlov describes new reactor technology developed by Rosatom. If I’m interpreting this correctly, than Uranium enrichment is no longer needed, and the waste can be reused.
Now that is a breakthrough (that were always my objections). I don’t have the idea that Dmitry Orlov is someone to make things up. It won’t solve the problems of existing plants, but can be of significant importance for new ones. Though I still think it is not a good idea to build them on the Ring of Fire.
Cheers, Rob
There is some strange stuff happening in Hong Kong at this minute, protestors have broken into the legislature and occupied the building, vandalizing it and hanging the British colonial flag.
Here is a live feed.

@Anonymous,
If you’re not replying on my post and come with something new, than don’t use the ‘reply’ button but use the ‘post’ field on top of the page, ok :-)
I have a reply on your post, though:
-Isn’t it such a coincidence that amid USA-China tensions and already calmed down situation, suddenly Antifa-like brawls break out? I sense the sulphur scent of George Soros.
-Isn’t it a curious coincidence too, that a mysterious and massive outburst of swine flu takes place? Are we sure that this flu didn’t originate from a certain CIA-run biolab in Georgia?
Cheers, Rob
They should hold the swimming and rowing events at the beach at Fukushima. The water is warm.
Old stories, modern world.
So, we all know the story of Jesus chasing the moneylenders out of the temple.
We have a modern version of that story ongoing.
Apparently in Iran the Mosques have free electricity. So, just guess where the cryptocurrency miners set up their mining rigs … in the Mosques, to get free power.
But the ones chasing them out, is the government, and not the Jesus.

I have no idea what to do with this in terms of esoteric thinking (grins). Perhaps just this .

What happened to this man who committed “hate crimes” and killed multiple people?
To exercise discernment in mental calculation of why and how a news items is covered by the corporate media:
https://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2017/10/31/report-multiple-wounded-in-downtown-nyc-after-driver-shoots-pedestrians-from-ca/
1. you don’t hear about how he represents a section of Ult-right Muslims in America ( more of them out there, folks)
2. How despicable and terrible he is ,,,blah, blah with “no remorse”
3. In fact, what happened to him has disappeared down the “rabbit hole” of no-memory.
4. You don’t hear from the victim’s relatives who wonder why such people are not screened from entering the USA and who blame open border policy for the death of their loved ones. Oh heavens no!
5. how many multiple sentences he received? totaled in years, and years.
Yeah, nice guy, this one? I wonder if he’s out on mental health leave?
It’s a funny world we live in. Reminds me of the Bizzaro world in the Superman comics I used to read as a kid. What about that Norwegian, I won’t intone his name; the one who laid something like 70 lives to waste, living in a 5 star luxury cell for the rest of his life?
Mental health leave? Yeah, that’ll surely work…
The 5 star hotel is actually a maximum security prison 100 km’s from here.
As of the “Incident”, “event”. THAT is a very deep one, and very sophisticated (as this stuff goes).
The secretary general of NATO, Jens Stoltenberg was at the time the Prime Minister of Norway. He got the message all right. Hasn’t been the same since.

culture war in Russia: Yes. At least someone still protests in Russia, it would not be protested in Looneylandia. Do not let them kill your culture under the guise of “free speech”.

Some realistic information on Hong Kong

I’ve been regularly reading Godfree Roberts at Unz review and it seems as if his perspective brings some light to the issues of China. Nice stuff, if you are interested.
Just a tad more humor as to the “first daughter:”
https://sputniknews.com/viral/201907021076122794-ivanka-trump-gets-memed-over-awkward-g20-appearance/
These two appendages to the trump admin need to be sent back to nyc like yesterday but it prob will not happen:
Many things around Trump are contradictory, one gets used to that…but having his daughter implicated in the internal White House and most importantly, in the world affairs, isn’t a bit too much ? I mean, that looks like a copy of the royals in the past, not just of the simply kings but emperors. How would you like to look democratic and a son (or daughter) of the people (your people) when you, as elected president in a republic (not monarchy) bring in on the highest political pedestal your own kids behind you, even if the people haven’t elected them to be there…somebody will be so kind one day and bring in a horse…like a famous Roman Emperor…
Come on , if many have a problem with seeing this undemocratic, well, look at it from a moral side.
If someone at his rank, still has a mentality which is of the past, things will reverberate. I know, smart people will say : at least she (the daughter) is being trusted, being a family member. Yes, agree but trusted by whom ?…anyway is strange.
Loonylandia update: the cultural revolution
It is getting crazier and crazier in “The Revolution’s” forward operating base of the American Red Guard, Sacramento County. My friend who is on food stamps just received a bureaucratic pack of forms to be filled out which included a new one which contained two questions asking him to select his gender ID ( he was given seven choices) and the second asked him to indicate his sexual orientation again with seven options although the last two were ” unknown” and “decline to state”. “Celibate” was not a listed option because, well, it just isn’t one. Oh, and the final paragraph stated that if you changed in any way that you should feel free to resubmit the form.
My pre school teacher friend says that they will target her children next but that since she works in a private school perhaps it will take longer for them to do so.
Those on this site who gleefully quote Sputnik or Pravda or even RT have no, absolutely no, idea what it is like on the front lines of the class war in the USA. (especially those smug self righteous cultural leftists on Watching the Hawk). Humph, alt right this and alt right that…. fascist this and fascist that…what balony!! The real fascists wear Gucci. It is a crime to be poor in Looneylandia. And agreed upon social reality has ceased to exist.
For those interested in watching the so-called “alt right” in Looneylandia…I have installed something called the Dissenter Browser which supposedly the techie-technocrat companies cannot crack and on it is Gab an analogue to Twitter but not censored. well, there are racists statements for sure but I hope to define my search and follow parameters to avoid tuning into these in the future.
We shall see how this works out. So far money has been raised for the old men beaten bloody by Antifa in Portland Oregon the other day.
Is this a false alarm or is something up with Iran?
