So far, the Apocalypse has proven to be very tiring. We can’t breath clean air, fires are burning everywhere and the smoke conditions are nasty. A little rain (finally) cleared the smoke for about 12 hours, but now it’s all back again. Morons won’t mask up and are now spreading the deadlier Delta variant, killing themselves off, and the new Lambda variant is now officially here in the United States, so the pandemic is now just going to get worse and worse with more dead and more sick, including the very young.
A critical shortage of “stuff” of all types is unfolding, making it harder and harder to get anything. I’m quite convinced that the number of dead is about quadruple the official counts and plenty of people won’t be going back to work, ’cause they’re no longer with us. My Dad died and I’ve had to deal with a little of that. I’ve been working super hard, putting myself in severe pain each and every day trying to get essential things done, making progress some days, not so much on other, but not from a lack of trying, mostly from a lack of help and some technical issues.
The daily news feeds in the US are full of absolute idiots making asinine claims and demands, refusing to do their part and ensuring that we’re going to only see things keep getting worse and worse until everything breaks. If you want to know how people behave in the Apocalypse, just look around. This is the bare beginnings of truly selfish, asshole behavior that is just going to get significantly worse. Eventually we’ll see murderers in the streets simply taking what they want, when they want and ignorantly demanding that they’re “protecting their freedoms”.
I made a trip over into Idaho and nobody there was taking any precautions at all. Duh… no wonder the hospitals are so full now. The Apocalypse will be marked by a pandemic of stupid, found everywhere. The biggest problem I have with this is they’re willingly killing their own children now (so much for being “pro-life”) in their quest to be the biggest assholes on the planet. This number of young dying young is escalating rapidly, which is pretty sad. They’re not eligible for the vaccine yet and their parents are leading them to disaster.
You can’t watch the news anywhere (except maybe Fox) and not realize what is going on. A plague of Stupid has taken hold throughout this country, and they’re getting worse and worse every day now. They’re going to drive this country right over the edge, so you’d better be ready to deal with the fallout, because it’s coming, sure as shit. Even the stupid Governors are now coming down with COVID and still pretend it’s not going to change their stance on distancing, masking or vaccinations. The problem here is these idiots aren’t dying fast enough. If we were rid of them and their rabid stupidity, they could be replaced with someone with a bit of intelligence.
Now, they’re trying to go after the teachers that are demanding protections for themselves and their students, which is dumb as shit. I’m laughing at the outrageous contortions these clowns are coming up with to justify their terrible behavior. I don’t know why we are putting up with them anymore, they certainly do not deserve our respect. Governors DeSantis and Abbot are both having to constantly backtrack on their public stances against vaccinations, masking, distancing and warning people about being cautious, because their States are now falling apart. The South is even worse, having the lowest vaccination rates of all and now all the hospitals are pleading for help.
Desperate people around the world are increasingly crying out for help, but few are getting it. Afghanistan, Haiti, Mexico, Americans, the ineptitude of government strikes hard. Nobody knows the real figure, but it’s far higher then whatever officials numbers are being given out.
I’m still amazed at the so-called optimism that I sometimes read online. Is anything really getting any better? I do not see any evidence of this at all. I believe in hope, I just can’t find any.
The Apocalypse also has a lot of crazy people doing really crazy shit. The morons that claimed he had a bomb in Washington D.C. is just the latest example of stupid. These idiots are self-eliminating, but not before causing enormous problems for other people.
It’s raining in Greenland again, this time at the summit (highest point) something that has never happened before in human history. Not a big deal, right? Wrong. It’s too warm, WAY too warm in Greenland. Elsewhere it’s a enormous drought drying out critical infrastructure, leaving homes, business, industry, lakes, dams and rivers dried out. Definitely not normal, definitely apocalyptic.
The Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica is retreating (melting) faster and faster now, contributing a massive 4% to the global sea level rise from this one gigantic glacier. Scientists have discovered a heat source from the Earth under the glacier, which has accelerated the melting significantly. Sea level rise is virtually unstoppable, the only thing anybody anywhere can do about it is to prepare for rising seas. Moving away from the coast would a good place to start if you’re close to present sea level. Find some higher ground.
The drive to EV (electric vehicles) and PV (photovoltic solar panels) has gotten me thinking that no matter how many people make the “switch”, it won’t make any difference at all. A world full of EV’s and PV’s won’t stop deadly climate change anywhere, but nobody seems to understand this. It’s not the right “answer” to the problem of civilization. The answer it seems, it to let the Apocalypse run it’s course. Get rid of the plague of stupid people doing stupid things. Get rid of the lawless governments and Governors. Get rid of the corrupt regimes running roughshod over their citizens. The only problem with this is a lot of people are going to be caught up in the churn, ground up and spit out that don’t really deserve it.
Glad to see you’re still around glooming and dooming. Last post I saw was ‘the last post’ in 2014 when you were sure the world was ending. I’m sure you’re still sure.
Did that root cellar you wrapped in plastic finally rot out yet ? ahahhaaaa
And I’m not surprised you’ve totally bought into the Plandemic and the killer vaccine that isn’t a vaccine.
I’ll drop by in another 10 years, though I doubt you will have changed a lick.
Guess your another one that fabricates their own reality. Believe whatever you want, just don’t bother posting it here, I don’t put up with nonsense.
Don’t be so nice. He already outed himself as a “connedspiracy idiot” with the plandemic comment and “killer vaccine”. Anyone that believes this has their screws missing. Ask them for proof and you’ll get nothing. Wait long enough and he’ll be part of the dead, another Plague of Stupid casualty.
Yeah, I figure that out right away. Kinda sad that so many connedspiracies are still being fabricated and floating around. The harm this is caused is directly related to the rising death toll, but I don’t think these people care one bit.
Amazing how paranoid you vax’ed people are of people that refuse it. IF you are truly protected, why worry about it ? And you ignore the Israeli stats…..84% jabbed and experiencing huge rates of cases from what ?…..the 16% that aren’t ? ahahahaaa…….you guys are missing the nose on the end of your face. The whole ‘plan’ of the Plandemic was to get you to take the jab.
You worry about the future of the planet….and rightfully so, given how many more mouths there are to feed/etc since this blog started….but guess what ? The Elites not only worry, they have a ‘plan’ for how to solve it. And you dumb asses are falling right in line for it.
Your error is obvious. Nobody says you’re “truly protected”. That is part of the connedspiracy crap you’ve fallen for. The Israeli study actually said that if you got COVID, you STILL need to be vaccinated for the best protection. You can get COVID more then once. The Israeli study strongly advocated EVERYONE get vaccinated, even if you once had COVID.
The asinine connedspiracy that there was a ‘plan’ to ‘get you to take the jab’ is totally false. It’s fabricated bullshit of no substance. Morons post this shit.
It is not paranoia “of people that refuse it” that has everyone else worried. It is the PROVEN fact that the virus is capable of mutations. The more people that the virus finds to hosts in, the more the probabability the virus will mutate. The new R1 strain in Kentucky is yet another of several examples (Alpha, Delta and the Brazillian). This is a variant of significant concern and is thought to be able to avoid antibodies.
The unvaxxed are making it very likely that an exceedingly dangerous strain will infect the surviving population, which could lead to a huge rise in deaths, sickness and long-term debilitation for any survivors. You, and others like you, are making this increasingly likely. All because you’ve fallen for connedspiracy bullshit and ignorance. You are indeed missing the nose on the end of your face, the obvious is right in front of you.
You’ve also fallen for the connedspiracy crap about VAERS. I’m already convinced you do not read anything other then asinine connedspiracy bullshit, but attempt to read this:
https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-vaers-9318/fact-check-reports-of-9318-vaers-covid-19-vaccine-deaths-do-not-prove-causality-idUSL1N2P21CV
There is also a followup article: https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-vaers-death/fact-check-video-claiming-covid-19-vaccine-left-13627-dead-and-17794-disabled-is-sourced-from-unverified-vaers-data-idUSL1N2Q3239
You’ve made an enormous error thinking that a) you won’t get COVID; b) If you do get it, you’ll be ok. c) Using the false equivelency that getting COVID is better then getting the vaccination. You are wrong on all points, there are countless videos from desperate people tell you exactly this. They wish to God that they had been vaccinated. Finally, the long term implications of getting COVID are well-documented, you can develop health problems of a serious nature for life. The gamble you and others like you are taking a fools bet.
You are backing the wrong horse (on everything you claimed). You are likely to die from COVID some day, or at least get very sick, or worse, wind up killing someone else because of your own infection and passing this on to someone you care about. Even if you survive the first bout, you can still get it again, and still die from it, or develop long-term complications. It’s a fools game you are endorsing. Countless people have now expressed their sorrow for embracing the same lies you are endorsing. There are also website dedicated to posting these stories of the unvaxxed dying from COVID.
You are in the connedspiracy trap that has totally clouded your mind and your judgement. It’s a dangerous deadly pit.
ahahahaa…..wait long enough and we’ll ALL be dead. Unfortunately, according to VAERS, there are a whole lot of ‘vaccine’ fools that didn’t have to wait.
“You are in the connedspiracy trap that has totally clouded your mind and your judgement.”
Like looking in a mirror…..I’d say the same about you believers of the Holy Vax.
But you never did answer my question: did the root cellar rot out like I said 12 years ago ?
No, the root cellar did not rot out. Cedar will last a long time underground. I should know, I’ve pulled countless cedar stumps here that were cut down nearly 40 years ago.
The vaccination isn’t holy, but it was developed by actual medical experts and virologists (versus armchair no-nothing idiots). Vaccinations are required for attendance to public school, travel overseas, joining the military and a whole host of other requirements. Nobody had a problem with that. But due to politicization and disinformation, millions of people have been horribly misled about getting vaccinated by complete idiots that are total frauds. Thousands and thousands are now dead as a result (stupidity has consequences), while at the SAME TIME, these same people are willing to accept all kinds of other forms of medical treatment (rank hypocrisy) when they get COVID and many have desperately begged for the vaccination too late (died anyway). Waiting until you contract COVID is just plain stupid.
Don’t post stupid shit about vaccinations here anymore, it’s not helping anyone (and nobody agrees with you). I don’t figure you’ll live much longer as it is, you’ve gone full-blown connedspiracy nutter and are in a highly self-destructive trap that will see you soon among the self-eliminating.
Well, I’ll drop by in another 12 years, assuming you don’t finally quit blogging for real, or are dead from the vax.
I’m glad you posted. You’ve amply demonstrated what I’ve been saying for years here. Connedspiracy theorists are unreachable with facts, evidence or reason. You’re choosing to gamble your ‘arm-chair expertise’ over the advice of tens of thousands of medical professionals actually educated in the field (unlike yourself). Embracing connedspiracies is stupid, dangerous and deadly.
Great read this morning on Zero Hedge. Long, but well worth the time spent.

AND as usual, the comments are often better than the article. Read the comments by Keeper20 on the differences between sterilizing (like measles, polio, smallpox) and non-sterilizing vaccines like the current jab, which aren’t vaccines at all by definition, since the don’t prevent infection, mutations and spread of the disease.
While I doubt you allow this to be published for the public, as least YOU have been informed on your stance and take the moral responsibility IF you don’t publish any to the contrary of your belief.
“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.”
– Carl Sagan
This is a stupid article on a stupid website written for morons. Zerohedge is well-known to be a disinformation source. This site is ranked as a “conspiracy-pseudoscience” website promoting false/misleading/debunked information by Media Bias Fact Check.
The article starts with a false premises and goes on from there with fabricated claims and conspiracy. The COVID-19 vaccines do not provide “herd immunity”. They do not prevent infection in the vaccinated.
The endless conjecture in this article is typical of Zerohedge which is why I never promote this site nor its disingenuous publications, it’s a garbage information source. They assume their audience is ignorant and uninformed and will not catch their numerous mistakes.
The amount of pure conjecture in this article makes this garbage utterly worthless and it won’t be linked here. I already told you, don’t post this shit here. Keep it up and you’ll be gone, I don’t tolerate fools.
Why you insist on getting your medical information from dubious unqualified online sources is the real mystery here. You choose ignorance, repeatedly. All you morons insist that you’re better qualified, better informed and better educated from your mother’s basements then those who are actually practicing medicine. It’s painfully clear you are not. You’re attempting to second-guess everything and interject stupid connedspiracies to support your confirmation bias. You’ve gone so far as to claim that everyone will be dead that has been vaccinated. Now we learn one of your sources is the conspiracy crap being promoted by Zerohedge. No wonder you are so deluded.
The present COVID vaccines did not promise to “prevent infections” which is what makes your linked source so horribly wrong. The ignorant will fall for this deception, but those who have actually read up on the vaccinations will not. They can keep YOU from developing severe disease. The assumption that this is a “sterilization” vaccination expands upon this false conjecture. You’re not bright enough to realize the difference. You also haven’t yet learned who is actually allowing the “virus to replicate”. You’ve refused actual medical evidence and instead get your unqualified, ignorant opinions from discredited online connedspiracy sources – this makes you a fucking idiot.
You want to “recruit” other people to your ignorance and bias. Not here. Not ever. Stop with the endless bullshit and conspiracy crap.
This is for you:
You can’t get through to him. He joined up to just cause trouble. He’s not interested in anything but his own opinion.
I wonder why people like him bother everyone else. Cowardly fear? Attention seekers? Their worldview is crumbling, their conspiracies are falling apart. They don’t eeven notice that they have to constantly change their stories when they collapse. You won’t get through to him, write him off.
He’s hopeless, just like many other cult-followers. Their world has to fall apart before a personal reckoning can occur. This is likely to happen to all of the unvaxxed, if they survive it. But I’ve seen numerous stories where even while dying from COVID, they’ll still deny it’s real. Unbelievable.
