First off, thanks for all the comments on the previous thread. Overall, everything is ok, just lots
of various things to deal with. Sooner or later it all works out and becomes water under the
bridge. I do appreciate all the followers of this blog and all of those out there in the ether
that I peruse. The "Fourth Turning" is upon us and it will be interesting what the outcome will be.
Things are rapidly changing even though it may not seem it. Up is Down, Left is Right, Right is
Wrong.. you get the drift. Again thanks for the comments and thanks to those that sent emails.
I notice a lot of new names that have lurked for a while. You all , are why I do this. ( The Fourth
Turning is a good book or audible choice ). I was introduced to it thanks to Jim over at TBP.
Irish.
Moving along.... ain't this the truth?
******************************
Great article here....
Where Did All the Workers Go?
Our young workforce is evaporating. As a result, employers struggle to find workers. We have no one to blame but our new virtuous and smarter-than-thou cancel culture of hate.
Check out all the points and you will find yourself nodding in agreement <<<< LINK
The million dollar question is what will happen in the next decades if this is where many, not all,
these 20 somethings are? What kind of country will have work from home, service based on nothing
economy? Who will run the machinery, the refineries , the power plants? What happens when
there is an EMP attack or an solar event?

Are there biolabs in Ukrainia? <<<<
2015 Prediction of Russian Invasion :
Be well and safe, Irish. We will always be here....
ReplyDeleteThanks Chickenmom, all is good.
DeleteStill winter in southern Maine. The fire is burning to keep it warm.
ReplyDeleteThe Ukraine video is a little old (2015) but many of the points are still very relevant.
Joe
Still cold here with snow on the ground just south of you.
DeleteThink you mean that want to ruin America
ReplyDeleteThank you for keeping an eye on me, I was only halfway through my coffee so I was still a little groggy. I believe I fixed it for you :-)
DeleteOn the dumpster thing? It's time to get medieval.
ReplyDelete545 people into a Morbark, feet first with pauses at the ankles, knees and just below the hips, then stopping where the neck joins the upper torso, televised from the National Mall, followed by those 545 heads, bronzed, mounted on pikes, then positioned on the bridges leading in and out of DC, as a reminder to be working FOR the people instead of fooking us at every turn. Several of the camera's should be focused on the miscreant's backsides, as they're waiting their turn, so that we can see them shitting and pissing themselves as their fellows are fed in and save the worst for last. If any of them feint, pause, revive the feinters, so that they can continue to enjoy the spectacle.
Then we start working on the MSM owners and talking heads and people like Soros, Schwaub and all the members of the WEF. This could go on for days, maybe weeks.

It's sorta like nuking from orbit.
545 heads should make a statement that can't be ignored especially when the newly elected replacements are forced to look at pictures and gif's of the shrieking carnage, in both Houses of CONgress, as they make their way to their offices EVERY SINGLE DAY THAT WE ALLOW THEM TO SERVE.
Oh, and shitcan EVERY unelected bureaucrat and treat the director of every .gov agency, the Joint Chiefs and every General and Colonel in every branch of the military to the same treatment.
These people need to be taught, once again, that they work FOR US and when they don't, the consequences are DIRE. The biggest problem today and for the last 100 years is that there have been no consequences for their malfeasance in office.
Turns out Joe McCarthy was more right than wrong. He was just looking in the wrong place.
That's how you get the Obama's, Biden's, Clinton's, Bushes, Bitch McConnell married to a Chinese spy for thirty years(I mean have seen this woman? WTH is she doing married to THAT THING other than to feed intel to the Chinese), Diane Fineswine having a Chinese spy driver for 10+ years, Eric Swallowell sleeping with Fang Fang Love You Long Time, General Milley BOASTING that he called his counterpart in the Chinese military telling the Chinese General that Milley wouldn't let Trump nuke China and Biden setting up Europe to be over run by Putin because Biden killed the U.S. Nat. Gas and oil export market on his first day in office etc, etc, ad infinitum.
...and I'm not even getting into the European leaders that sold out their citizens to Russia by implementing their recockulous green energy plans. That's a whole 'nother essay and bunch that need the same Morbark treatment.
Remember the video of the Chinese .GOV Minister saying that they had "spy's at the highest levels of the U.S. government" and LAUGHING ABOUT IT?
That's what happens when there are no consequences.
"Introduce traitors into his country, that government policy may be rendered futile." - Sun Tzu, The Art of War, a couple thousand years ago.
Fourth Turning? It's going to be a debacle unlike anything previously seen in the history of the planet, maybe with the exception of the Chicxulub meteor strike.

No, you're name isn't Nemo, it's the same as one of bloggers and you're just spreading the FUD Troll Central gives you.

DeleteIrish, If you can open the link, copy the meme then post it here I appreciate it.
Ed, I don't understand your point. Maybe you didn't understand mine. It was about corruption, even though I didn't state it. The reason corruption exists among the so called "elite" is because it is never or rarely punished and, in most cases, it is its own reward.

The last 3 months have been the worst I've seen in 70 years and I have seen a lot of "no way! ". Take easy and enjoy what is.
ReplyDeleteI think "no-way" is gonna be a daily affirmation going forward.
DeleteThanks for the update Irish. Get everything in order as much as you can. The rest of all this garbage is stuff we dont have control over...
ReplyDeleteThanks and agreed.
DeleteNo FFFF? Please, Irish, knowing that it will be waiting for me at the end of the week is sometimes all that gets me through. Please, please, don't stop publishing them.
ReplyDeleteI'm working on this weeks.
Delete""What happens when there is an EMP attack or an solar event?""
ReplyDeleteWhat happens? Nothing happens. Period. The US as a self sufficient entity ceases to exist at that point.
Power? Done for.
Industry? See above.
Food production? See above, unless you're growing it yourself.
Healthcare? See above, again, unless you're doing it yourself.
If the power goes out due to an event like that, so does everything follow behind it.
By the time someone figures out what to do, and how to do it with nothing...it's over.
Short term, and in the interim, get out of 'today' what you can get out of it.
Find a second job, make as much money as you can, put it into self sufficiency.
Get right with God (THE God, not one of the knock-offs) and pray for your family that doesn't.
Or be prepared to lose everything when someone else decides you have what they need and you haven't prepared for it.
Other than that, if you're not going to do the above, I hear NFL/NHL/NASCAR/bread and circuses are on the tube and would look so much better on that new 100" ultra-hi-def big screen.
Millerized, you're a slightly brighter ray of sunshine that I have been lately! :)
DeleteI just finally said fuck it. Let someone else work. "Retired" after 34yrs, give those 'kids' a chance to support me for a change. No bills remain other than monthly food, utilities and taxes. Making due with what I have, and as little expenditures into the economy as possible.
DeleteThe faster this system burns to the ground, the faster the country can burn with it. There is no loyalty left to give, and as soon as it comes available, I'm outta here. Be that a dirt nap or a move as an ex-pat, I'm done with the american (lower case, as with the lower class of living that goes along with it) 'dream'. Maybe some day it'll show back up, but it'll never show back up here. We can hope for a 'Trump-vival', or a 'Dur-ham sandwich all we want, the system as it is is broken beyond repair. The only solution is a complete dissolution with much smaller local sovereign territories. However I'll be long dead before that ever hits. The United States is dead, long live the United State.
Irish, take care of yourself first and us afterward. Just like we learned from the stewardess on the airplane; oxygen for yourself and then your dependent. If you fail to take care of yourself, you will ultimately fail to take care of whoever depends on you.
ReplyDeleteSuch as simple thought, right? Politically stated as AMERICA FIRST.
All is good. Just a bunch of shit to slog through. Thanks Bob.
DeleteWho is pulling Joe's strings? This war was created by our government, completely avoidable. Putin, since 2008, declared Ukraine's entrance into NATO a red line that should never be crossed. Joe declares Ukraine can enter NATO if they want on Dec 10th. We are being fucked over by people who have not been elected to anything, simply advisors, who are they?
ReplyDeleteThe million dollar question. Too bad no one chooses to pursue it,OR , if they do, they commit suicide.
DeleteIf you haven't read the book you need to.
ReplyDeleteA lot of the information comes from their study of the Romans and we all know what happened to them.
Sometimes we forget what came after that. Dark times are ahead but we will push through with the strong men it creates and our descendants will get to enjoy the good times as most of us did when we were young. Man did we have it good, and plenty of long range freedom. Glad my father and father in-law are no longer with us. The lectures would be many. I learned a lot from all the ones I did get to hear though.
Irish as always, Via Con Dios it's the only way.
History repeats itself :)
Deleteps Neil nails most of the things exactly correctly.
ReplyDeleteThere is no good government now, from Global all the way down to the cities. They are all broke.
With no way out.
DeleteOK, I looked at the first article, and I thought nobody is drafting you and sending you to Vietnam. Dad had WWII. Both grandfathers WWI. When was it ever easy? My son graduated into the dot com bust with a Computer Science degree and has been scrambling ever since. He's doing OK, but it hasn't been easy. What the whiners fail to plan for is that mom and dad won't be around forever, so they really need to learn to take care of themselves along the way.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the website, and especially Fridays. It'smuch appreciated.
You're welcome Mark, thanks for being part of the blog readership.
DeleteThank you for all your hard (if also enjoyable) work on our behalf! Do take back your own time and space for needs at hand. You deserve a break today and for as long as other matters press. Having given greatly, receive gracefully! I as do many have appreciated your efforts on our behalf. Just another lurker.
ReplyDeleteThanks for lurking AD. It's why I do this.
DeleteYou’re a good man Irish,
ReplyDeleteThank you! I try.
DeleteGiven the Moscow rodent's proclivities, and the fact he stole Crimea, and tried to steal southern Ukraine, but failed, it was known, and quite predictable that he would continue the invasion. Mearsheimer, however, is an idiot. He still hasn't gotten Ukraine right, and is too arrogant to ever learn. Several Geopolitical specialists have been admitting they got Ukraine wrong and have changed where they think this is going.
ReplyDeleteI don't know where this is going, but the Russians aren't winning, which means they are losing. News is that the prong of the invasion that went through Sumy now has it's main supply route closed off, and the big column that was just outside Kyiv is now frozen for lack of food and fuel. As Fred Kagan has said, the Ukrainians are fighting like Lions. They are fighting for home and hearth, and Putin is fighting for power and money. His own troops don't want to be there, and many have said so. Many have surrendered, or are walking away from useless equipment because they have no fuel.
The war is going no where like Putin expected. His brag about capturing Kyiv and two NATO capitals inside 48 hours have been shown to be just empty trash talk. It's been nearly a week since he started, and he doesn't even have Kyiv and it doesn't look the fall of Kyiv is going to happen anytime soon.
By the by, those biowar labs are veterinary medicine research labs. The docs floating around the net do not show they were US biowar labs. The only biowar lab outside the US that is funded by the US is in Wuhan, Red China.
This is why men of good conscience, men of even merely passable intelligence, are "dropping out".

"The system" is not broken. It isn't malfunctioning. It isn't even behaving oddly. This is... "the system". By design. Tuned for centuries, when it wasn't functioning according to design, to realign. To design.
Old men, and men of old minds, cling to it. They "raise their sons, up right", to sacrifice them to it. The ones their sisters, mothers, and daughters, don't sacrifice for them. For themselves, that is.
You don't need to change. You can't, really, change. You are what you are. But, if you hate those that call you enemy, even while you serve them, loyally; if you "love"... as best you can... your sons, your brothers, even just a bit, a wee bit, more, than those that call you all enemy; you need to grasp, as hard as you can, that you are the loyal allies, of those that call you... all... enemy. Like a "well behaved" pædo, like a "dry" drunk, you will never, you can... never... be "not what you are". But you can stop being the human shields, of those that call you... all... enemy.
