I'm just screaming into the void.
But yeah...I sincerely want to be wrong but we've seen this movie before
and it looks like Disney had a much bigger budget this time.

Liquidity support is going to be needed, Helge Haugane, Equinor s
senior vice president for gas and power, said in an interview. The issue
is focused on derivatives trading, while the physical market is
functioning, he said, adding that the company s estimate for $1.5
trillion to prop up so-called paper trading is conservative.
Europe's self-made energy crisis is "Too Big To Fail 2.0".
Regular Americans will still not know where Ukraine is on a map but they
will ask what a "liquidity crisis" is and they will also recall the
words, "derivatives","subprime","repo","delinquency","upside-down" and
"financial crisis".
Keep shopping or the MAGA terrorists win.
Doing your own research makes you an enemy of the state.
Never question elections or lock-downs.

The world is about to learn this lesson:
Engineered scarcity = Engineered dependency
Dependency is the leverage global leaders will use to enslave humanity.
Junk food, social media and the iPhone are bread and circus used to
distract and divide humanity while the globalists take control.
Full spectrum dominance through food and fuel scarcity.
Shake your sticks at the 1%, the maga forces , the fossil fuels.
Men can get pregnant.
What is a woman? There s no consensus.
The government is rich and can pay your loans and provide universal
basic income.
Robots will serve you the tacos.

covid -> climate change -> energy crisis
was always the plan - it was admitted early 2020
April 2, 2020, World Economic Forum:
https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2020/04/climate-change-coronavirus-linked/
After the data was in, direct correlations were drawn between lock-downs
and lower human activity. This was celebrated.
https://www.climatecentral.org/climate-matters/covid-19-and-climate-chang
e
Let's go all the back to March of 2020. World Economic Forum dictates
that, "Our post-coronavirus world will be built on what we say and do
now". We were told to accept a "new normal" where unelected authorities
decided who/what was essential. What was targeted from the onset?
Gardening. Gyms. Churches. Small businesses. Few protested and the ones
that did were severely punished.

Here we are today in an upside down world. I'm still wondering if the
frog will know it should have jumped out of the pot as the heat was
increasing. I supposed it was neither here, nor there. The frog is

2022: The iPhone hasn't changed in 8 years but single moms will send
their kids to school in Salvation Army clothes so they can get the
latest model.
I have never met someone who received government benefits that didn't
have the latest iPhone but I work with people w/high incomes who carry
cell phones from 2017.
Do *real* wealthy people drive new cars and carry expensive hand bags?
Americans and Europeans will learn some interesting lessons very soon as
things get interesting.

Taxman Lyrics
[Intro: Paul McCartney, George Harrison]
One, two, three, four
One, two... (One, two, three, four)
[Verse 1]
Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
[Verse 2]
Should five percent appear too small
Be thankful I don't take it all
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
[Bridge]
(If you drive a car, car) I'll tax the street
(If you try to sit, sit) I'll tax your seat
(If you get too cold, cold) I'll tax the heat
(If you take a walk, walk) I'll tax your feet
Taxman
[Guitar Solo: Paul McCartney]
[Refrain]
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman

20% of Americans couldn t pay their energy bill in the last year.
https://www.cnbc.com/2021/12/23/20percent-of-americans-couldnt-pay-their-
energy-bill-in-the-last-year.html
"We have to save electricity, but we have to save smartly. If we look at
the cost of electricity, then there are spikes in demand. And that makes
it expensive, because during those spikes in demand, the expensive gas
comes into the market. So we have to FLATTEN THE CURVE and demand spikes
We will propose a binding target for reducing peak-time electricity
consumption." ~ Unelected EU Commission President von der Leyen

Hyper-inflation, liquidity crisis, energy crisis
Did the world look like this before the left took total control?
Did you know that several states are being sued because they refuse to
purge tens of thousands of dead people from voter rolls, including
Michigan? The same people foot-stomping and yelling about "the other"
being a threat to democracy are openly thwarting it. No one seems to
care. No one seems to fight back or hold anyone accountable. By all
accounts, they are getting what they want; what they deserve.

People wont give up their fanciful lifestyles. They can't convince
themselves that they're successful unless they're living one or two
weeks shy of broke. Sometimes that includes getting all the gimme they
can scrounge up.
Here in the OC people are driving stuff that is outside a decent person's
needs - it's like a suit of armor "because it's Hollywood"
Everybody looks the same when the groundskeeper is shoveling dirt onto
their box.

I dedicate this song to Grex and the soon to be posthumous memory of
Grex:
Beware of Darkness by George Harrison
[Verse 1]
Watch out now, take care
Beware of falling swingers
Dropping all around you
The pain that often mingles in your fingertips
Beware of darkness
[Verse 2]
Watch out now, take care
Beware of the thoughts that linger
Winding up inside your head
The hopelessness around you
In the dead of night
Beware of sadness
[Bridge]
It can hit you
It can hurt you
Make you sore and what is more
That is not what you are here for
[Verse 3]
Watch out now, take care
Beware of soft shoe shufflers
Dancing down the sidewalks
As each unconscious sufferer
Wanders aimlessly
Beware of Maya
[Verse 4]
Watch out now, take care
Beware of greedy leaders
They take you where you should not go
While Weeping Atlas Cedars
They just want to grow, grow and grow
Beware of darkness (beware of darkness)

And also, anyone who is looking at this from the Internet Archive, if
you are interested in finding me, I have a website:
https://www.distantdark.com
It's been fun posting my little rants over the years.
Also fun to troll and have fun with people that have came and went.
In the end, grex wasn't able to compete with Facebook and Twitter.
I get it. Some of us aren't ready to move on. But we are powerless.
We run our little home Raspberry Pi servers to SSH back and forth into
the sunset.
"Party on Garth."

Here's an interesting breakdown on who owns Trader Joes. It's an
interesting business case study IMO.
https://www.aldireviewer.com/aldi-and-trader-joes-are-they-the-same-
company/
My favorite fact from this page:
"Trader Joe s brings in around $13.7 billion per year in revenue.
Compare that to Aldi US, which takes in an estimated $18.44 billion per
year with about 4 times as many stores."
Very likely the business model for Trader Joes is to offer goods and
services in wealthier areas. They could not simply expand and greatly
increase revenues. In the meantime, Aldi America is considered a tough
competitor to the likes of Kroger, which has incorporated similar
products to compete.

Aldi and Trader Joe's are essentially Volkswagon to the Chevy and Ford
grocers. My favorite grocery stores have weird names like Ranch something
and are mostly run by Persians while loaded with produce off the back
of a truck. Bell pepper robbery in any of the big chain places.
