Big Country Expat

Greetings Me Droogs N Droogettes!
Lots of comments and “Newsflash!” stuff out there…

Lots of “What ifs” going on… Is it a Maskirovka? Is he really dead? How does this affect the war? What happens to Wagner now? “I thought Putin had pardoned him or something…”

Yeah… about that…
Anyway, as far as what’s really happening?

Beats the hell out of me.

I do know one thing, and that’s nothing out there is what it seems. I mean my thing is twofold. Monday Afternoon (US Time supposedly) Priggy was ‘broadcasting’ from Apefrica, giving the ‘usual speil’ about helping out the locals from “Colonialism” and helping them “throw off the shackles…” yada-ta-yadda-ta… all the usual tropes that sounded good back int he Bad Old Days of the Soviets assisting and supporting any and all who wanted to fight with /ourguys so to speak… the ‘Cold War’ was actually quite hot in many areas as shithole countries acted in Proxy for the Soviets on one side, and the US on the other, with /ourguys supposedly standing for “Truth, Justice and the ‘Murican Way!”

We now know what a pantsload that whole thing was Aye?

So then ‘all-of-a-sudden’ he’s back in Russia, headed to Saint Petersburg? OK, not too far a stretch but in his vidya he said both he and Wagner were going to be there for the ‘long haul’ whatever that meant. Most folks took it as by him being in Apefrica fucking around there, it was an ‘out of sight/out of mind’ thing for Pooty-Poo.
Guess not?

So, the Wagner-King is dead, Long live Da King. Part of the other reason I remain skeptical is that he’d be what? The 7th or 8th General that’s been declared “Dead-by-Vengeful-Putin”

If I had to make odds? I’d say 60% that he’s dead, 40% he’s alive, and this’s another Maskirovka. Me and Scoutergreg were talking about this today, hence the subject and ideas that came up. Also there was mention that Prigozhins other private plane was on a similar course, juuuust behind the plane that ‘went down’ get filed under ‘things that make you go “Hmmn”.

OK, as writing this, and looking for the proper way to spell Priggys name, seems on ZeroHedge, Wagner released a statement calling it ‘murder most foul’ and oopsie! Seems that”…the entire top command of Russian mercenary outfit Wagner Group was aboard the private plane that was downed northwest of Moscow hours ago.” Link HERE

Decapitation Strike Anyone?

And the ‘spin machine’ just went into overdrive, despite there being videos on a missile strike:

Meh…|
Not really my concern.
If anything, what’ll be interesting is to see the Wagner Response to this? Not sure as it -is- ostensibly a ‘private corporation’ but even then, that’s thin-thin to anyone with a brain. There’s also the tinfoil crowd who’ve come out and tied it to numbers and anniversaries:

Seems that particular fruitbar is the former Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Kraine, and now serves as “Coordinator of the new “Office for Business Protection” which in itself sounds shady like a motherfucker IMO. And yeah, he’s also a member of the small hat/big nose club, like every. single. person. in a position of power in the Kraine. I’m wondering if/when the Orthodox Christians on both sides are going to wake up and realize just what the fuck is really going on… if’n you think shit is spicy now? Hoo-boy… The real Ukro-Nazi SS in World War 2 made the Nazi-Nazi Totenkopf SS look cuddly and snuggly comparatively speaking…

And speaking of our greatest Ally Evvar…
I was looking online for some prop money. Wifey and I both have started Uber’ing again to help make up shortages for the bills. I might have mentioned it but the power bill last month went up so outrageously ALL of our jaws rebounded off the floor. She’s been doing the day shift while I toil away in Glorious Peoples Tractor Factory, and after dinner, provided there’s some ‘event’ happening, I go out and do MY thing.

I mean we got Raymond James Stadium and the Bucs, Tropicana Field in St. Pete, never mind the concerts, Tampa International, and lately, a LOT of Amazon Workers going towards Sarasota to a GIANT ass distro center there. Ybor City is busy towards the weekends as well, but I’m not down with a lot of drunk folks, and I sure AF won’t work Amelie Arena anytime soon, as it seems ALL the ‘shows’ there have been, as of late Rap ‘Concerts’ and allllll the lovely ‘diversity’ that comes with such a crowd.

So that’s the background on what’s up with that… the reason for some ‘prop bills’ is that lately, a LOT of brothers don’t seem to ‘get’ Uber… that it’s not a cash biddness… I shit you not… LOTS of knee-grows getting in cars, demanding “Where da moneys at?” and such… they see the Uber Sign in the Window, (and at night we have one that lights up) and try the old “quick stickup” thing.

Couple of folks have been shot b/c they didn’t have any cash, so my thought is a couple of those realistic prop $20s might save me an issue… that and Mister 2-Shot .357 Derringer. If they decide they want to do something anyways it’ll be hell on the cleanup as getting blood out of the interior is a pure motherfucker. Gretchen had a hell of a time getting DumbC’s blood off the roof liner after that whole shitshow a ways back… that was when she tuned up DC with the collapsible baton… so throw them a few $20s and bail… they’ll not notice til after the fact, as to them? They want to do a quick snatch and run… and as soon as they get out of the car, I’m gone baby. Which also reminds me, I need a camera facing the interior…

So anyways, As I was checking things out on AliExpress (where they have such ‘things’) they had a couple of other suggestions as I was browsing. My original search was for “$100 dollar bills” and one of the things that came up was a roll of toilet paper with Cee-notes printed on it, so I searched for that on it’s own.

Humorous as well as appropriate. Considering the near-Weimar valuation that’s just getting started… well… we shall see. So then, for funsies, I checked out “US Flag Toilet Paper” just to see what came up with that search:

Now interestingly not only is there such a thing as US Flag shitpaper, but the third item on the list is a offer for a stack of fake $100s… guess those and the flag are interchangeable… Jes’ Sayin’…
So in keeping with the train of thought, I went to see if “Our Greatest. Ally. Evvar.”s flag was in there as toilet paper. What I got was this:

Uhhh it came up with MOAR US ‘Funny Money’…
Curious that Aye?
So, I did a search just on it’s own for the Israeli Flag

Pride Much?
Make of it what you will, but out of a couple of searches for toilet paper, it came up with $100 Dollar Bills… granted it is ‘fake and ghey’ money for prop use and other such things, but it does sort of tell us where things stand out there in the fake and ghey world.

So, another day in the trenches gone by, and no one died. Leastways no one by my hand. As far as IT Commissar and others at the Peoples Glorious Tractor Factory, I don’t necessarily want to know if anyone stacked bodies.

Lord knows just in general, having to deal with some members of the public, I’m genuinely shocked that mass-killing sprees aren’t as common as the Ministries of Lies and Propaganda would have you believe. Especially in this day and age.

I do not count any of the Blue-Hive Shitholes in that particular calculation BTW. Those have been ‘shooting galleries’ for as long as I’ve been alive, and barring some unforeseen circumstances, will continue to be just that.

Now, as to tonight’s thoughts. Got in a Zon Package today that I bought both on a whim and for a purpose. The budget (almost nonexistent) was to try and get a secondary cell phone to set up as just that, a secondary phone. Now, yes, I -do- have some older phones laying around, much like everyone else does, leastways when you upgrade, and your old(er) device is either not worth anything (my most common issue) or is so broke-dick that the company in question tells you “it ain’t worth shytte!”

Now, digging through the “junk drawer”, the one every. single. one. of. you. has… you know it, don’t try to deny it… I found these stashed in there. They all work, and are from various Eras… and yeah, era.. in this case the Iraq War Era of my life, the two on the left being my GSM Phones that we’ve talked about in the past.

Nokia Bricks man, the ‘cockroach’ of early cell phones I swear. These two are the Nokia 1208 (far left) and the Nokia 1202-2 on the right. And yes, they’re both powered on asking for a SIM…

Both also have the Arabic/English Keypad:

…which TBH I think is pretty damned cool. Both are shockingly! still fully functional as well. Batteries still work, they both power on, however, the left (the N-1208) one only runs on European 2G GSM 900 and 1800 MHz bands, so even with a GSM chip, it doesn’t ‘register’.

The N-1202-2 however runs on the 850, 900, 1800 and 1900MHz bands (dual band so to speak) and the 850 and 1900 are the North and South American common bands. So yep. They (compared to todays hyper-expensive cellies) resilient to a fault. Which is probably -why- they killed off the whole concept.

I also found a pair of “Smartphones” as well, one being Wifeys and the other my old one. Both are functional, and we keep them as backups if the current one(s) get jacked up… Wifey tends to be really hard on her equipment and I’ve had to do the ‘insurance replacement’ thing far more than I care to remember… and yeah, the $20 a month hurts when it’s time to pay the monthly, but knowing I’ve already gotten like 3? replacements out of them for her breaking her shit? Yeah, well worth it… YMMV. All four of them measure up size wise lie this:

My old OnePlus that Spawn gave me before he cut me off, Gretchen’s LG, and the two Nokia. The LG being the widest, and my OnePlus being really long… both good phones, but still… “Smartphones” which considering the day and age? Too much chances of bloatware/spyware/tracking/cameras/microphones… what have you. All the ‘stuff’ that makes it hard to go, if not completely ‘silent’ so to speak (I mean you ARE on the network) but make it harder to keep an extremely low profile while using it. Things like making a one off call or two, without leaving any real traces. Something inherently disposable by it’s very nature… you can ditch it and never think twice about it again…

Now, ebay has TONS of used cellies. Great. In this case however, I want something utterly reliable. Like new-new. Not ‘refurbished’… not ‘well cared for’… ‘gently used’ is an all-time fave… all the usual blurbs when someone is selling something used. So I went searching.

OK, this is NOT a joke but:

Yep
That is not a toy.
To put it in perspective:

2.93 Inches Long
.96 Inches Wide.
.47 Inches Thick
Runs on the 1900MHz US Band for 2G
Uses a micro SD Chip which goes into the side, and charges with a micro-USB port on the bottom.
The barest of bare bones phones.
And it works:

I’m not using the pic where it says what network it’s on, but yeah… It works. Good signal too. It came with an earpiece that allows you to clip it on to the phone itself, which then goes in the ear, much like those Bluetooth Headset/Ear Buds that were so popular a ways back.

If you do get one you’ll need to go onto the Youtoobs and get the “How to turn it on” video as the Chineseum Instructions are less than helpful. All in all, the best part?
The Price

Currently $24.69 on the Zon.
Link HERE and yes, I get a ‘taste’ if you buy one of them.

There are other super tiny Cell Phones out there, but this one stood out, if only for just how insanely small it is.

For the chip? I went with US Mobile:

And yep.
$0.50 per unit. $0.54 after Florida Sales Tax with free delivery. To sign up? Turn on the VPN, Pay as you go, with oh, say a pre-paid card for $25? Pick your number by state? Registered to I.P. Freely? Yessiree!
The Link for that is HERE

Sapper called it a “Prison Phone” and yeah, it is small enough to be smuggled uncomfortably if needed. That is another thing that I liked, not the prison smuggling thing, but the extreme size… as in IF I needed to say ditch it very rapidly, dropping it and kicking it into a drainage ditch, or even down a grated manhole cover? Tooooo easy. If you had to throw it? Provided you were able to power it off so it didn’t ring if it was called, throwing it into heavy brush?

Let me tell you, -I- wouldn’t want to be the guy who’s told to “Find it!” after a perp threw it for distance in the deep woods.

Jes’ Sayin’

That and destroying it if needed? Man, my size 15 Boot could stomp, twist and grind it to powder in about half-a-second on rough concrete, which too, may or may not be useful. Hell… drop it into your blender, flush it down the shitter. Pretty sure plopping it into some good n’stronk acid (muriatic) would eliminate it completely.
All depends on your mission parameters.

So, hope you found this helpful. I’ll keep y’all in the loop as to how it goes with the new toy, as it’s a trial to see if it’s long-term viable.

So during my 10 Minute Mandatory Break at Glorious Peoples Tractor Factory, I checked a couple of international news stories. One of them caught my eye for a multiplicity of reasons. One of which is the “history bug” that I caught loooong time ago, and that I enjoy. In this case it has to do with the rebuild of the Notre-Dame cathedral.

Now, if you remember (before they utterly memory holed the story) the famed Cathedral of Notre-Dame in France suffered a catastrophic fire.

An absolute tragedy that all things considered, IF the perps were to truly become known, my own opinion is that their country that they’re originally from? Drop a fucking Cobalt Bomb man… wipe out their homeland… Fucking savages man…

Word is that they have now stated that during the investigation, that just like Flight 800 (which was shot down…) errr…crashed off Long Island, Notre-Dame too suffered from an ‘accidental short circuit’… In reality there were-slash-are still a number of Haji running around France, torching historically significant Christian Churches, and in this case quite a few were spotted ‘working’ in the area that the fire started, so if it quacks like a duck? Yeeeeeah.

So, the article in question I found?
Man… it’s cool AF

Like for real man…
Forged in Fire stuff right there.
The TL;DR in the Link HERE is that they want the rebuild to be as close to original as possible. In order to do this? They got this guy and a couple of other Master Blacksmiths to start making the axes they need to cut and hew the timbers to the Cathedral. It’s because the original timbers had the tooling marks which meant:

“The axes had to be as close as possible to the originals used by the carpenters who first built the cathedral in the 12th and 13th centuries — so that the new wood beams would bear the same markings as the old.”

Like I said, cool AF.

Things that give you hope right?

Now… moving on…

Things that crack me up.
The very fact that the Krainians have told the US to go ‘pound sand’ as far as settling the current unpleasantness. Looks like a Peace Treaty is no longer on the table, leastways as far as Krainfeld is koncerned.

Seems Krainfeld is pushing a Krainian Konstitutional Amendment stating that they ain’t gonna stop fighting as long as one inch of the Krain is in Russian Hands. That for the War to end, the border has to be restored to the 1991 borders.

Which ain’t happening, not in this lifetime, if even ever.

This means, by and large, that even if the Current Cabal Running the Group Behind the Pretender to the Glorious and Harmonious P&PBUH (Plus 10%) Orifice of The (p)Resident, The Dementor-in-Chief, Emperor Poopypants the First, Chief Executive of the Kidsmeller Pursuivant, Good Ole Slo Xi-Den WANTED to ‘off-ramp’ the war into a “North Korea/South Korea” situation, Kreinfeld just skewered that idea completely.

Don’t know if it’s the Kocaine is burning out his Synapses even worse than before, or if he’s still believing his own Press Releases. I mean Jon Bon Jovi wrote him a personal song man! Add on that there’s been some intel slipped (via simplicius76, Link HERE) out that for real, the Krainians are so desperate to cover up their losses, that they’re issuing orders to Unit Commanders to get guys to sign off on being cremated in the field immediately, rather than having their stiff packed up and sent home. A translated copy of the document is there, and for shits n grins:

So, yeah, disinfo? maybe?

Don’t know, don’t care. I do know Lukashenko (the Belarusian President) let it slip that there’s a quarter-million moar Russian troops, all volunteers, who’ve been trained up and ready to ‘end game’ this shitshow. Again, don’t know, but I sure AF just want it over, if only to break the spirit and spine of OUR fucking assholes who’ve been behind this entire massacre. Nuland et. al. need to have their faces rubbed in it but good. That being said, history shows that if anything, NONE of them will ever be really called out for their absolute failure(s).

Personally? If I were a Krainian who had his father/son/brother kilt by these bloodthirsty “Regime Change” ‘Murican Poly-Tick-ians? I’d be getting me a Javelin for myself, and wait until they showed up at the Airport to meet with Krainfeld, and blow their theoretically up armored limousine to its component pieces-parts. I mean a Jav, when it works would reduce a civviemobile to itty-bitty ripped up parts.

Ahhhh to dream…
Plus, I wanted to thank everyone for the input on the whole CBDC thing and Power. Without going too deep into it I actually back-in-the-day was a Counter-Terrorism Occifer for CIS or Critical Intervention Services here in the Tampa Area. They had the contract (back then) for TECO, Tampa Electric to provide physical security for the power plants. It was a shit job with shit pay and shitheads running it, hence why they lost the contract with TECO.

To give you an idea of how shitty? Back then, the Head of the Uniformed Security Division, AKA The Paul Blart Team, his stupid ass wasn’t legally able to carry a firearm due to felony domestic violence conviction(s). However, because he was a founder of the company, HE got to still get paid the big bux and run the show. We also had to buy our own weapons if we were part of the Armed Guard force. And even then, they got shitty with you about -where- you bought it if it wasn’t one of their ‘preferred vendors’… methinks there was kickback going on… They wanted us to ‘be uniform’ and all have Springfield XDs, which, while an ‘ok’ pistol, I got me the XMD because 19 rounds plus 1. I actually got a deal on it from GunGirl as it had been a trade in, and was faaar less than the going rate for a XD. Took a lot of shit over it from the Higher-Higher too, but since it was a “XD” model, I argued it, and they left me alone. For the most part that is… I took a bit of petty harassment from some of them when I called out some of their blatantly obvious stupidity vis-a-vis Access Control and HOW -T-Walls were supposed to work, but that’s another story again. They dropped the subject when I brought up Iraq, ‘cos the majority of them had no idea what my background was, and I wasn’t advertising.

Another example of just how shitty the company overall was that TECO gave out/paid a HUGE Christmas Bonus to CIS as a “Thank You” for all the hard work we’d put in… we meaning the Grunts on the Ground who walked the beat so to speak. Literally… patrolling, Gate Control, all the usual ‘stuff’ for a ‘sensitive site’ per Homeland Security.

The bonus? Never saw a dime.
The Foul Four Founding Fuckers, the “4Fs” as we called them? They bought customized Harley Davidsons for themselves at a cost of like 40k Each. And then proceeded to show them off to everyone by parking them in the Corporate HQ in Pinellas on a Friday. Needless to say, the paid-$10 and Hour Guys like myself fucking ALL walked. They got royally buttfucked labor wise when THAT story got out. NO ONE wanted to work for them. Last I heard, G4S ate their lunch contract and biddness-wise, and is running the TECO security contract now.

Good, ‘cos fuck those guys.

I did learn though the location of all the Storage and Backup Depots for TECO and how most major power companies ‘scratch each others backs’ on the regular. This means that if Duke Power Company, which runs a LOT of Northern Florida and Georgia, runs into trouble, be it a catastrophe of some kind or runs out of a major part (like a Transformer) then they either send Guys to assist with repairs, like they did after Hurricane Katrina, or they send the pieces parts as needed. A very educational job experience, even if poorly paid.

So, Making Molasses Cookies Again as I only got one, maybe two from the last batch, as everyone else in the house, to include the BrotherInLaw? Bastards hoovered them up like a motherfucker leaving me high n dry!

This batch? Allllllllllllll mine baby!

Before the thunderstorm rolled in, we had a pool day today

Other Granrents had her take swimming lessons.
She’s gone from “Don’t you dare let go of me!” to “Watch me cannonball Papi!” The kid is a Mermaid I swear.

Sapper got in on the action, albeit in the Hot Tub.

She was ALLLLL over the pool, and I taught her how to dive for a rock today, as I didn’t have the obligatory .50 cent piece that DeadDad taught me with… I’ll remedy that next time around and have one with me… Used a big ole piece of the pool gravel which stood out quite well on the bottom, and got her to use her arms to pull herself down to it.
Me? I’m again, bushed.
Even a short day with the Redneaded Nuke Plant is tiring.
Ain’t no ‘control rods’ on that ‘un.

So, other subjects.
Was talking to Sapper about everyone having meltdowns and freakouts about the potential of the Central Banks rolling out a CBDC, i.e. for the uninitiated, a Central Bank Digital Coin, whereby in theory the Controllers -could- essentially take control of your money, thereby your life and establish some serious social controls, much like Chy-Nah has rolled out over the past few.

Thing is, this ain’t Chy-Nah, Nor is it the Wannabe Chy-Nah-of-the-North, Can-nada under the leadershit of Justine “Baby Fidel” Turdstew. Nope. We still got guns.

And no, it’s not that we’ll be doing some sort of “CV-2 Shit Just Got Real”… Nope… be a lot more subtle than that. As Sapper and I talked about, these folks seem to forget a few things. Like in order for a “Digital Coin” to work? You need power. Not Political Power, I mean juice baby…volts… Power. Computer without a functional outlet? A fucking very large and complicated doorstop.

Two small substation(s) got whacked a few months ago.
Someone using long rifles.
Plugged some transformers.
Power loss was about 80,000 people without power, for about 3 days in some areas +/-. Now, that was a few small incident. Now, in theory, IF “they” (whoever are the real shot callers out there) if the Mysterious and Undefined “They” decide to implement such a drastic overhaul of the financial system, in conjunction with a societal lead into social credit scores, they know not of what kind of feces would be impacting the oscillation device.

Mainly because this Elusive “They” have never actually worked and honest days work in their collective lives. They have always had “power” in their domiciles and work places. They have never had the power shut off for a non-payment or late payment. They naturally assume that “it’s always been this way.” That when they throw the switch on a outlet, the light comes on.

Until it doesn’t.

REALLY HARD to use a “digital currency” if there ain’t no power. Even harder to understand when you have no idea how the real world works. Fat, rich, and stupid is no way to go through life, but for the most part, they actually have. These are the people who tell us that we need to stop hunting because it’s barbaric and killing animals is wrong, and then in the same breath, tell us that if we want meat, we should go to the supermarket and buy our meat there, ‘cos ‘no animals were harmed that way’.

Thing of it is, a lot of “Them” think that they’ll just whip up and order another Transformer. Now, Yeah, to a point they can but there’s a few facts out there that one should know. First off, the approximate price(s) of these things? They ain’t cheap, not by a long shot.

Yeah… those prices are +/- from 2010 to 2011… like 10+ years ago. Per the electrical engineering Webpage I found that one, they also state: “…In 2010, the approximate cost of an LPT with an MVA rating between 75 MVA and 500 MVA was estimated to range from $2 to $7.5 million in the United States. However, these estimates were Free on Board (FOB) factory costs, exclusive of transportation, installation, and other associated expenses, which generally add 25 to 30 percent to the total cost (see Table 1 below).” with Table one being the one I poasted above.

Transportation is a big deal with these as well. VERY heavy and awkward to move around. One does not generally just ‘throw one on a flatbed’ and call it good. Lots of specialized equipment to move one of these:

And yeah, the reason that it’s a pain is they’re essentially a filled oil tank, which is how they’re put together:

SO is it any wonder that “They” just don’t understand?
Sure, there have been attacks in the past… all of which seem to be some lone-wolf nutters, of which like not very many have ever been caught. I think that there was a smaller less-successful attack out in Washington State that they did bust the two morons who did it. I did a write-up on it at the time as a LOT of it didn’t pass the ‘smell test’ and since it memory-holed so quickly, I’m sure that the perps were not Whytte Sooperpreemiecysts as they were off the news at Lightspeed.

Ether way, a Central Bank Digital Coin needs computers, which in turn needs power, and truthfully, as fast as our infrastructure is collapsing, I don’t even think nutjobs would need to do anything drastic. Hell… Texas couldn’t even keep the power on in a winter chill… and Commiefornia?
Heh
They’re talking about making a law that if the Power Grid starts having issues, that the DotGov has the right to drain your Battery on your Tesla back into the grid, essentially making all the Electric Vehicles in the state UPSes or a backup “Uninterruptable Power Supply”. I’m not even going to touch that one…

And in order to implement the “Social Credit Score” thing? In Chy-Nah, they use your cell phone. Last I looked, cell phone towers are even Moar fragile than a Transformer. Lots of fiddly-bits and gizmos.

Also ALL reliant on a stable electrical grid and infrastructure. I mean I’m only pointing out some obvious and open-source stuff. By no means would I want to see anything like this come about… my point is the People Behind the Curtain so to speak, the ‘Shot Callers’ have never thought of this. In fact the info that’s leaking out about the current Krainian Klown show is showing our self appointed “Betters”? The very fact that they really believed their own bullshit about the “Counteroffensive”?

The fucking hilarious part is the leak that said the planned Jeddah Summit was supposed to be the ‘Crowning Achievement’ of the Krainian Kounteroffensive… to quote:

“Jeddah was Sullivan’s baby,” the official said. “He planned it to be Biden’s equivalent of [President Woodrow] Wilson’s Versailles. The grand alliance of the free world meeting in a victory celebration after the humiliating defeat of the hated foe to determine the shape of nations for the next generation. Fame and Glory. Promotion and re-election. The jewel in the crown was to be Zelensky’s achievement of Putin’s unconditional surrender after the lightning spring offensive. They were even planning a Nuremberg type trial at the world court, with Jake as our representative. Just one more fuck-up, but who is counting? Forty nations showed up, all but six looking for free food after the Odessa shutdown”

BWHAHAHAHAHA!
How that one work out for ya?
Ahhhh Hubris… gotta love it…
They’re a bunch of Fucking Misfit Toys… Scarecrows without Brains. To call them retarded is an insult to the genuinely disabled.

And because of it, things are fixing to get a LOT wilder and stupider as the weeks go on. Head on a Swivel people.

A -wee- bit hungover this A.M. from hanging with Wifey’s Lil Brother. Had a lot of fun exchanging some stories and we found ‘common geek ground’ when we started talking about, of all things Doctor Who. He got introduced to it when they rebooted the series with Chris Eccleston, after which he went ‘backwards’ and started watching older versions of Who. Now, as far as Eccleston, a lot of “Whovians” didn’t like him, however I had no issue with him playing The Doctor.

In fact, episode six of what they’re calling “Season One” (which pisses me off… acting like the previous 26 seasons didn’t exist) was actually a fave of mine…”Dalek” showing the last of the Daleks and it’s fate. Pretty Good IMO.

That being said, there is only one True Doctor:

Can I get an “Amen”?

Tom Baker… the definitive Doctor IMO.
Got a true story about him that maybe I’ll pass on at some point. I have a honest-to-gawd handwritten thank-you note from him, to me. A gentleman in every way imaginable.

Anyway
We watched the ‘Attack of the Cybermen’ series… for those not in the know, Doctor Who when Mr. Baker was running the show, was serialized like the old Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers stuff… 4 nights, one major plotline, which each show ended with a cliffhanger of sorts, with the 4th episode being the resolution. So we (BIL and I) had a good night hanging out and beering it up, hence todays ‘issues’…

Now, today after work I came across a group on Blab that’s called ‘Greentexts’ which are stories pulled from 4chan. OMG some of them are brutal AF so I figured since my brain is still a bit fuzzy, I’d throw this at y’all for S&Gs (Shits N Giggles to the uninitiated).
First One:

Got to admit, I LOL’d on that.

Heh… Here’s your Crown, King.

No shytte Aye?
That’d be my luck for sure. Now, the next one is not in the ‘humor’ category but the one called ‘things that make you go Hmmmn’…

Uhhh yeeeeah…
Wee bit disconcerting methinks.
And then, filed under ‘gross but funny’:

“I’ll take ‘Things would suck’ for $500 Alex”
And going on the ‘chan wouldn’t be complete without some good ole racism:

And Lastly, under “The Truth Hurts”, I give you:

Hmmn…
So, doing a Russian Ration for the Stack on Sunday. Hope my guts can handle all the weirdness.
Hope you got a laugh or two out of those

So, we got Dad out of the Rehab facility.
LOTS of shady shit happening there. His clothing, all new stuff me n Gretch got him for his b-day, (2x pair of Underarmor Shorts and 3x Battlecats DotMil Vetbro type shirts) all fucking gone and replaced with some worn out nigger-wear… like Hobo-clothes. NOT his stuff…

SO MUCH shady shit, that I was told to stand down, as I was so angry, I was ready to do bad things. Like unfortunately, the ‘legal routes’ have been explored by a LOT of people… the place, after all the shit we went through to get him out of there, both him and Mom are like just wanting to put it behind.

He was put in there via the Hospital. They sent him there.. we didn’t have a choice. In the two point five weeks he was there he was given one bed-bath BY MOM!!! They didn’t do all the rehab, they ignored him when it came to helping him to the shitter…all sorts of really fucked up shit.

And yeah, it was overrun with ‘Muh Diversity’ hires from Haiti apparently.

The Google Reviews even say people died under ‘suspicious circumstances’ there. Almost EVERYONE with a problem has reported it to the various agencies, only to be summarily ignored. Hence my rage. And there were some seriously weird things that happened while he was there that made me nervous.

Dad was raising hell on the phone, which happened to be a ‘house phone’ to Gretchen. They don’t allow cell phones… during his bitch session, a nurse came in and started question WHO he was talking to, and asked how old G was? We HEARD HER in the background. How the fuck did she know Dad was on the phone unless someone was listening in from the main switchboard? Even worse was they wanted to keep him there for an additional 5-7 days, despite being ‘cleared and done with (minimal) PT… THAT had me really nervous as I think there’s some serious fraud going on that’s being ignored. Hence why I was going to go Scorched Erf if something untoward happened to Dad.

Not to worry tho, my bridezilla went up there, made the appropriate comments, and got Dad out of there. Things like “My Brother In Law is a Federal Agent, a Special Agent in Charge in the Orifice of the Inspector General…” (He was, he’s now medically retarded but still, sounds good) and then “My hubz is a former Merc who loves my Dad, he’d hate to have something happen…” as well as a few other pertinent info-nuggets that were enough to convince them that Dad needed to leave post haste. They sprung him this A.M.

So now? Fuck it. Would love to burn the place to the ground, metaphorically speaking, as in get ’em busted for Medicade/care fraud and collect some of that sweet, sweet bounty lucre. BUT M&D said stand down, so ok… Fuck it as I like to say. I will say tho, my bullshit sniff-o-meter was reading a 11 out of 10 for the bullshit there…

So, going to not get too deep tonight…
Brother In Law (G’s Lil Bro, who’s as big as I am) is in town and coming over to spend the night tomorrow. Cleaning the haus as it it a bit of a shambles, not that he’d give a shit. Great guy, former Navy, one term, no deployments, and still ‘lives out of his seabag’ so to speak, as in he’s a man of simple tastes. NOT dumb by any means, just laid back with a ZFTG attitude. He’s about 4 years younger than G, which means I’m 6 in seniority.

I -am- excited though as he’s bringing me a broke-ass 12 gauge Winchester Pump Shotgun to fix… it’s his buddy’s that was left in an outdoor (not climate controlled) storage unit and the action is currently locked up tighter than Sister Mary Elephant’s thighs. Rusted too… wants me to check it, repair/refinish, and y’all know I positively live for such things. If I can, I’ll do the photos and document the job for here.

So More Later

Whelp, took a long time for the Tampa VA to fuck things up, but, like all “good things”, this week the sterling record they with Me had come to an end.

Nothing overly dramatic per se… just some major pain-in-the-ass inconveniences that I could have done without. I went into the Online App to check to make sure that they had gotten my ‘script riflls needed message… to which I got a “Because you missed your last three month Opioid Check In appointment, you’re cut off untill we see you!

Of course I was like WTF, and went to check my appointments, and man, WTF are they taliking about!?! Shit sez I completed the July one… so I opened a couple of tabs, and went to get some screenshots to argue my case, ‘cos man, I hate withdrawals. I don’t get them bad, think “bad hangover” level, but still, if I can avoid it, I most certainly will. So, the issue and “Big Thing” that pissed me off was they, while I was in the appointment tracking App went in and started changing some of my past appointments to show that I was a no show.

I have the screen shots as, like I said, I was in confirming some info, (my appointments in ‘MyHealthE-Vet App/Website) and as I got screenshot #1 for proof that I –had– been there, and completed the appointment successfully and was marked thusly, (God love the snipping tool) when, while I was in the App, the appointment changed from “Completed” to NO SHOW.

People have gone to jail for shit like that.

I got multiple screenshots as well, ‘cos the appointment in question? My 3 month Opioid Follow up. Gotta prove I’m taking them, not selling, and that my body is handling it.
Fill a cup too, showing that I’m being a ‘good lil junkie’ and that I am pissing hot as opposed to making… what is it now? Like $30 a pill? selling them? Only reason I know the price point is back in the day when they wouldn’t give them to me, I had to ‘outsource’ my supply of ‘critical infrastructure support’ so to speak….
FedGov Meddling donchaknow?

Thing is?
I miss one appointment as a No Show and I’m fucked.
Cut off.
And for my raggedy broken blown up ass? Sorry, no matter what sort of JuJu people recommend, I know at this point what works for my carcass. Took me years to get them to finally admit that this’s what I needed. I know it’s a ‘case-by-case’ thing, and all the stories of “The VA is handing out opioids like Pez!!! So much it confused John Wilder!!!” To me?

Not so much.

Literally like pulling toofuses with my Leatherman. To the point if any medication, no matter how new, experimental yadda yadda… even if it wasn’t meant for pain, but had “pain relieving side effects” to include some really fucked up head meds, they put me on it.

And that was a problem… as my casaba? Well, lets just say the grey matter in the brain-housing group is… shall we say highly sensitive to some meds… as in some made me sooooo depressed I was listening to the Smiths, and XWife wanted to know why I had switched to wearing all black all the time and reading Friedrich Nietzsche nonstop…

On the flip side? Some of them?
Think “Predator” Level Ragebeast… Homicidally so.
Doctors at the Pain Clinic Consult:

Doc#1: “Well Doctor, the medication you want to put this veteran on has potential side effects to include homicidal tendencies. He’s a 10 year former Airborne Infantryman, who’s been a mercenary alllllll over the Middle East for the past 12 years He also is 6’4, 320 pounds, and leg presses almost half a ton and his last deadlift was almost 380… do you think we have to worry?

Doc#2:

Yeeeeeeeeeeah

About that.

Anyways
I called the VA Advocate for whatever good it was going to do me, and for my (making) trouble I had to go in today for a repeat of July’s appointment. Meh… reason I’m so pissed is if they did this to me, how many others are getting fucked with who are not as ‘flexible’ as I am right? Because my “Boss is a GOD” at Peoples Glorious Tractor Factory, I can punch in and out, and make up my time, as long as I get my forty each week.

So when I called the Advocate, who was a nice guy
BUT

End of the day, He’s system. He’s still the FedGov. The fucking enemy. A big provable part of my case with the Advocate was I was able to point out the whole time I lived in Tennessee, I never once missed a three-month appointment. Lord knows they tried to gaslight me into the “maybe you forgot!”

Bitch, I might be deaf, half blind, shot to fucking ribbons, driven by purely Monster, Stackers, Coffee and Hate, but I never miss what I call my “dope appointment”. To the point of making the every, fucking. three. month. fucking. drive. back. to. fucking. Florida. from Buttfuck Tennessee, and fucking back, without fail…

So, the deal was, I make todays appointment, which I did, and they’d make sure I don’t go “Trainspotting” Fucking cost me $30 in Uber fare as G was out of the house up helping Mom and Dad, and Sapper was at work.

LOL.

Anyways, I’m good now… Had another appointment they made for me, back to back, as I needed a biopsy….
Yeah… might have a touch of the Cancer again, tho a very small issue for me… these are some skin issues… MoleMoleMole stuff that’re getting a bit painfully agressive, as I never wore sunscreen in the Middle East like a tard, and being the Whyttest Whytteboi alive (maggotbelly colored for real) I got burned up really badly on multiple occasions…

Meh.
Cut ’em all off, and call it a day… after the left airbag carved out of me with a Orange-Sized Tooomah? Skin Cancer?
Bitch Puh-leeeze!!!
Worried/Not Worried.
So more later gang.

OK

A 17 year old kid was busted in Philly for plotting a “national attack” with a group even -I- haven’t heard of…
” Philadelphia teenager was plotting a national attack with members of the global terrorism group Katibat al Tawhid wal Jihad, which is affiliated with Al Qaeda, and had access to a “significant” number of guns and was working on building a bomb, authorities said.

The 17-year-old, who wasn’t named during Monday’s press conference, was arrested and faces a litany of charges, including possession of weapons of mass destruction and terrorism. 

He was in the process of building improvised explosive devices with several undisclosed targeted locations “that were not just in Philadelphia,” FBI Special Agent in Charge Jacqueline Maguire said during Monday’s press conference.”

Now, I ain;’t never heard of these clowns.
I worked with a group in Iraq back in 2004-2006 that ‘handled’ these groups. None of my contacts (that I have left) don’t recall the name of it being a group, as much as an idea, i.e. Monotheism in Islam. Band allll the various ‘factions’ together… Sunni, Shi’ite, Wahabis… essentially get ’em all banded together for the sake of Jihad and go fight the Great Satan.

Now, the idea was promoted by an old favorite, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. He was one of my personal favorites mainly because we had (not sure if it ever got publically released) but we had footage of him doing the “Standard Islam Will Win” rants on film, while holding a captured M-249 SAW. Fucker kept trying to ‘cap off’ his rant by blasting away per the norm in a lot of these vids, but the stupid sod had -no idea- how to ‘run’ the thing. First he didn’t cock it, so they refilmed… then he forgot the safety, and someone had to show him -how- to work that… then they reshot the scene again and the weapon jammed…

Wash, rinse repeat until he finally got it right.
Dumbass.

We used to watch it while drinking and laughing our collective asses off on how much of a tard this guy was.

So, with all that in mind, it’s AMAZING how a ‘didn’t know this was a thing’ group –suddenly– appears and with an updated Wiki page HERE The latest update being July of this year, which is funny ‘cos the “Attacks” list only show ‘stuff’ back in 2003/2004.
They ain’t done shit.
Probably only exist in the fevered dreams of “We need a Al Qaeda group to pin this one in conjunction with the kid we groomed!” Any bets?

What a cohencidence that the Feebies find and stop a “national terror attack” right after it comes out that they tipped off Biden’s team that Hunter was in the Just-Us department’s sights in December 2022, thereby AGAIN allowing the facilitation of the installation of the Illegitimate Regime of Pretender to the Glorious and Harmonious P&PBUH (Plus 10%) Orifice of The (p)Resident, The Dementor-in-Chief, Emperor Poopypants the First, Chief Executive of the Kidsmeller Pursuivant, Good Ole Slo Xi-Den.

For fucks sakes.
17?
Only thing -I- was looking to do at 17 was
A) get laid
B) get more laid.
C) profit.

The other thing: If there was a concerted effort, then where’s the rest of the arrests? I mean they say that it’s a “national attack” that was prevented… where’s all the other terrorists?

Or did they forget that part of the scam?
More than likely. Your average Fed is showing xir/xeyselves to be none-too-bright.

Problem is, most of ‘Boobus Americanus” ain’t much better.

The Link to the news is HERE
Sooooooooooo
Fully expect the “memory hole” to go fully active very very shortly.
Who’d a thought? Also it seems the Shyster…errr…father is a Corrupt Lawyer: Link HERE to the judgement against him from 2020. And yeah, don’t think there’s too many Qawis running around Philly…
Anyways, so much for that… even if he -was- set up by the feebs, this’s going away quickly and quietly, as we now have a ‘protected minority’ involved. It’s already been ‘moved down’ on the Faux news website to row 3…

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any weird Aye?

OK
Gotta admit, it’s pretty cool. I’ll be doing a more thorough breakdown tomorrow as I’m toast from finishing the stack.

The most interesting thing here in the video is the explosive that they strap to that thing is a cut-down RPG warhead. The red tape on the front is to keep the EFP (explosive force penetrator) inside, along with the boom-boom mix. The way it’s wired up?

Wow… NOW I see how they’ve been getting them smaller drones to take out light armor.

Glen Filthie, you might want to re-think your opinion on these things… Jes’ Sayin’ That payload is a section of a PG-7S RPG.

You can make out the 7C above, and “C” in Russian is an “S”
The red circle is the section in question:

Eliminate the front fuse, take the ass-end off, and you have a nice, light effective (as seen in the video) Anti-Armor Flying EFP.
God I love it when I nail something like that.
So, the Substack….
That’s up BTW.

Oh Holy Hells!

Brandon Herrera is running for CONgress.
Texas apparently… for District 23 as a strict constitutionalist.
Damn

Boy… this’s gonna be great.
He’s one of the few guntoobers I -really- dig. My only complaint is that I didn’t think of his shtick first. Couple of weeks? months? ago he testified before Matt Gaetz against the ATF. Considering his line of work as a Manufacturer/Class III guy? The record of the ATF being…. shall we say… demonstratively retaliatory towards anyone who doesn’t fall into the regime line?

Balls of Adamantium man, purely.

You just know the “Usual Suspects” are going to come crawling out of the woodwork to -try anything- to knock him down… that being said though, the very fact of his Media Presence might hold off unless there’s something particularly egregious out there…

That and he owns machine guns and has a FA-FO attitude.
Yeah, not wanting to be the first guy in the stack if they decide to fuck with him.
Nevermind he’s got like ALL the other guntoobers out there having his back.

So that’s the news for that.
Other things:
Got another ad from PSA:

$260 and change?
For a full rifle (provided you got a spare charging handle and BCG)
OMFG….
OF COURSE this happens when I’m broke-as-a-joke amiright?

So… International “Stuff”
As Predicted by myself and a lot of others, The Krainian Kokaine Klown Show is nearing it’s end-run. The disastrous “counter-offensive” (which was utterly hopeless to begin with) combined with a noticeable turn via the Ministry of Lies and Propaganda and it’s organs on the outcome looking rather dim it’s pretty obvious that shit is about to go south in a Major Way.
The overwhelming evidence such as articles like this:

Yeah, the Wall Street Cage-Liner did an article where they discussed the “exceptionally high number of amputees” in the Kraine…

Now realizing that when they say the numbers are “comparable to World War One” you have to realize and keep in mind that was a HUNDRED YEARS AGO

As even Aesop would tell you and agree with me on this, Battlefield Medicine has “come a long way baby” and it ain’t like it used to be… So, given that they have -as many- peg-legs and arms missing as WW-1 now, and considering how many folks probably didn’t get their shit removed due to modern improvements, That means there’s a metric fuckton MOAR of casualties compared to the “Good Old Days”

Hell the Graveyard(s) in Kiev?

Fucking Full Man… they’ve taken to stacking three stiffs in a single grave as they literally ain’t got the space anymore. Some chick on “X” was calling them out on it… she’s a Krainian who’s Grandpa died, natural causes from what the translation said… he was old-old, a Vet from “The Great Patriotic War” and when they went to plant him in the family plot, they were told “No way Jose, graveyard is full man”

Needless to say she was righteously pissed
No Idea if the NAZI SBU came after her, but judging that the little Kokaine Fiend is about 4 Steps ahead of the US on the “Tyrrano-meter” I’d say yeah, she’s “off to Gulag traitor!”

Speaking of Krainfeld… Lots of rumors of rumors of the Russians looking to ‘off him’… which is utterly hilarious as he’s the best ally that Putin has. God knows he (Vladimir) don’t want someone competent in there… best to keep Mister “Probably Smells Like Phys-Ed” (seriously, doesn’t he have moar than that one outfit?) at arms length, and let him fuck up until the US offs him a’la “Paging President Ngo Dinh Diem, General Minh would like a word with you and your brother…”

Yeah, you’re a friend to the US
Until you’re not

All them stories of “Russia wants to kill Krainfeld” is just that. Stories. Made up by self-stroking egotists in the State Department and CIA who think they’re “Oh so clever”

Now, other things, bit controversial. I was on Gab last night while working on the Ukrainian MRE Substack (tomorrow, I swear it’ll be up tomorrow)… The uploading of the pictures was taking a while so I was bouncing back and forth.

Sumdood commented on a poast with this as the opener:
(Link HERE)

“Halper: Zelensky might be sending a signal by declaring Ukraine to be the next Israel

Journalist Katie Halper said it is unclear what Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky means by declaring that Ukraine will be the new Israel.”

Now, he (specifically @radkowski… just followed him, he’s got some good poasts). He then went into the how Krainfeld might be trying to ‘model’ The Kraine after the war (if there is a Kraine left IMO) after Israel… namely a highly militarized country surrounded by enemies…

Now
On reading this, I thought of something I’ve been swirling around in Ye Olde Cortex. I mean really… just why in the fuck would he be talking about making the Kraine into “Greater Israel”? Now, my thoughts: This is not so far fetched as one may/may not imagine. Roll with me on this.

The issue is (and I know, having lived in the Middle East for 12+years) is the Jews land is finally ‘wearing out’ i.e. not capable of supporting agriculture in the country. Israel is done soil wise.

No amount of magic dirt (literally!) or chemicals/fertilizer is going to ‘bring back’ an area that LITERALLY has been farmed/cultivated/exploited over the past what? 3000 +/- years (and I’m including the ay-rabs in this maths just for Shits and Giggles)

The CIA Worldbook and the Google say only 17.56 percent of all of Israel is arable land at this point.

Point blank, if they keep growing, (demographically speaking) outside of ¡Genociding! anyone who isn’t “of the tribe” (i.e. the Jordanians, the Palestinians etc) and if food imports stop, the Jews die as there is no way for them to provide for themselves.

Hence, the annihilation of the majority of the 16-50 year old Krainians. Krainian chicks are, lets face it, Hot AF. Killing off the breeding males, emigrating all the hebes in, win-win (per usual) for the Juden.
Go Figure…. maybe I’m ‘off’ but I don’t think so… it -feels right-
Especially when I see things like this:

Seriously
FAAAAR too many vidyas out there, of prime ‘breeding stock’ Hawt AF Krainian females prancing, dancing and gettin’ their “groove thang on” with the guys who’re either too connected or too rich to get ‘conscripted’… if you call being clubbed over the head while riding you bike home, stuffed in a truck and shipped to the front lines ‘conscription’.

Back in the day it was called getting “Shanghaied”

The DotNavy, specifically the Brit Navy would either get you drunk as a skunk or do the ‘club over the head’ thing and when you woke up “You’re in the Navy now laddie!” with all the fixin’s to include and not limited to, Rum Sodomy and the Lash.

So who’s to say there isn’t a “Grand(er) Plan” behind all this manipulation in the Kraine. I mean every. single. person. involved at the highest levels are of the tribe. Cookies Nuland, her Husband, Krainfeld himself, ALLLLL of Krainfelds “Top Men” and man what a cast of characters. Some have even posited this’s the grand attempt to just kill off as many Christian Slavs (i.e. Brother War) in revenge for the Jews being driven out of the Rus areas back in the day…

I just write it…
Up to you to Decide.
