Every once in a while, totalitarian socialism has to be enacted so that the rest of us stay on our toes. I'm glad that this time it's on the other side of the planet, although California is too close.

Some interesting things from here and there: World Economic Fuck'em - by Quoth the Raven
__________________________________________________ ________That’s right: gone are the days of joking about The Great Reset, owning nothing and liking it and shifting to a diet of mealworms and crickets.
I’ve arrived at a point past that - a point of being sickened by watching people that in no way, shape or form represent me or the people in my life, yammer on about what my future will or won’t look like and what things I stand for are “right” or “wrong”.
It’s right in the WEF’s mission statement:
The World Economic Forum is an independent international organization committed to improving the state of the world by engaging business, political, academic and other leaders of society to shape global, regional and industry agendas.
Supreme Court Says Unable To Figure Out Who Leaked Abortion Decision Draft
Right. The DOJ is still identifying hundreds of people who were guilty of walking around the Capitol on Jan. 6, but the crack investigators of the SCOTUS cannot tell us who in the limited staff of the Justices leaked a document of this magnitude? It has become de rigueur for us to simply believe what we're told, and 80% of us happily do so. And following close on the heels of this:In May 2022, this Court suffered one of the worst breaches of trust in its history: the leak of a draft opinion. The leak was no mere misguided attempt at protest. It was a grave assault on the judicial process. To meet our obligations as judges, we accept submissions from parties and amici, we engage advocates at oral argument, and we publish explanations of our final decisions. All of this we do in the open. Along the way, though, it is essential that we deliberate with one another candidly and in confidence. That phase of the judicial process affords us an opportunity to hone initial thoughts, reconsider views, persuade one another, and work collaboratively to strengthen our collective judgment. It is no exaggeration to say that the integrity of judicial proceedings depends on the inviolability of internal deliberations.
For these reasons and others, the Court immediately and unanimously agreed that the extraordinary betrayal of trust that took place last May warranted a thorough investigation. The Chief Justice assigned the task to the Marshal of the Supreme Court and her staff. After months of diligent analysis of forensic evidence and interviews of almost 100 employees, the Marshal’s team determined that no further investigation was warranted with respect to many of the “82 employees [who] had access to electronic or hard copies of the draft opinion.” Marshal’s Report of Findings & Recommendations 11 (Jan. 19, 2023).
A Critical Examination of the Six Pillars of Climate Change Despair | Watts Up With That?
You are expected to believe this. And 80% of you already do. I'll bump my summary again:Why does CC have such deeply negative connotations and harmful effects on people’s mental well being? Because we are constantly reminded of the six dark and destructive consequences of CC:
1) heat will cause millions to die or live in misery
2) tens of millions (some say billions) will be forced to migrate
3) a million or more species will become extinct in just a few decades
4) sea level rise will have disastrous world-wide consequences
5) agricultural production will be devastated, causing widespread famine
6) humanity will suffer floods, droughts, and other terrible natural disasters

Really, think about this: A 4.6 billion-year-old planet with an 8000-mile diameter, with a molten core (heat, etc.), with an atmosphere that is only 50 miles/240,000ft thick (being rather generous), that orbits a star only 93 million miles away with 330,000 times the earth's mass and that emits enough radiation to burn your naked ass in 30 minutes, is having its weather unalterably changed over the course of the next 5/10/15 years (whatever it is now) by the presence of a weak greenhouse gas, CO2, that happens to now be at its lowest level in damn near the entire history of the planet -- a history punctuated by global glaciations while that weak greenhouse gas was far higher than it is now -- and that also happens to be the basis of plant life (and therefore atmospheric oxygen), a gas whose greenhouse effect is dwarfed by that of water vapor (on a planet with a surface area that consists of 70% water), and that geologically is currently in an interglacial period. The models that generated this political bullshit have predicted nothing correctly -- not sea level change, polar ice cover, or weather.
And everybody believes it anyway, to the extent that they are handing the management of the world's economy to elderly megalomaniacs with an agenda based on their own personal power. You're not even allowed to question it -- otherwise sensible people have agreed with the ridiculous premise that CO2 is a deadly poison that must be eliminated from the surface of the earth. Every August, everybody runs around like it's not supposed to be hot. Every time there's a drought, everybody acts like it's the very first time it's been dry too long. "Hurricane season" started in June, and how many hurricanes have devastated the coastlines already inundated by the molten ice caps? How many times over the past 20 years of this shit have the hurricane predictions been correct?
Really, the children are in charge now, seeking validation for "caring about the planet," running around yelling about "carbon" -- the 4th most abundant element in the physical universe --being a deadly poison. Their managers are common criminals whose entire agenda is money and control, and we are letting it happen. It is the result of the shitty science education we received in the government schools, and it probably cannot be stopped.
Correct me If I am wrong, but has not the history of Europe has been where numerous kings and dictators have tried to join it back together. The Roman Church has a deep interest to unite Europe under one leader and return it back to the days when Constantine brought state and church together into the Holy Roman Empire. "Imperium Christianum".
You mean "green" as in using only renewables to run the facility and the buildings have to be made from sustainable sources and fitting charging points for EV's. One thing I have wondered about Europe is in the north how effective are solar panels in mid winter.My job is to write up some 200-300 pages of text detailing how this thing will be green and digital. I thought the task was impossible. However, I do have a host of EU directives to quote which will actually make this story work and eventually enable European taxpayers to pay this unspeakable sum to my clients - who are essentially the mob. Moves like these are completely sure to make the EU top dog, you just wait and see!
There was more to it than "heuristics"..."dont' trust these guys", Scott. Stop acting like a fucking moron.
Scott Adams waits until MSM softens the vaxx delusion before he finally "gets it". I don't buy it. He's just another tool who was never thrown off Youtube.
OR...maybe he really is a fucking moron?
If ever there was an apology from backed-into-a-corner, this was it.
He's pretty obviously not stupid. There's a word that has gone out of fashion that explains well what he is, a fool. He's coming up with these tortured "apologies" because he's trying to find a way to admit he was wrong without admitting he was a fool, but in so doing he just digs himself deeper.
"As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth to his folly."
