Corporations tell their people how to behave, how to think, what to say,
how to exist while assuring them they are on one team. Then on a
Thursday night are told not to come in on Friday because they buildings
are closed while they reevaluate their staff choices. That Thursday
night is always the dangling sword over everyone's heads while they are
expected to be loyal and dedicated.
I wish we could get past all the BS in our society. We either own our
own businesses or work for someone else. Why do we need to play games?
You show up like an adult, do the work like an adult, get along with
others like an adult and go home. Those people who wear the company
jackets and shirts with the emblazoned logo are mystifying to me. It's
like seeing the cars with the police association stickers on the back. I
have no respect or understanding for boot lickers. They have the same
Thursday night sword above their heads, regardless.

The left has a gun to everyone's head and here are rules:
*If you don't agree with us it's misinformation and terrorism.
*Different rules for thee and not for me.
I wonder if there will be enough stolen votes and dead people to
overcome the crush of people voting against the tyranny, threats and
lies.
If the right takes control, what will they do with it? Anything
productive? Or will it be more of the same but with a different flavor?
Either way, there's no stopping the inflation, demand destruction,
housing & stock market collapses and worldwide strife. So many bad
policies. The biggest being the covid lockdowns, the deliberate sabotage
of domestic energy production and the insane government money printing
and spending.
I have long suspected that higher interest rates set by the Fed are not
meant to cool the economy. They are meant to break it so that the 1% can
buy repossessed homes, land, cars, boats, etc. I wish someone smarter
than me could prove me wrong.

"Pretty Face going to Hell is an anime"
They also made a shitty sitcom with that title too.
Hollywood communists must ruin everything.
"ball peen Pelosi"
I wonder what banal details we are missing from the Pelosi and DePape
escapade. Lots of bizarre and disturbing questions come to mind.
The midterms: Big steal or are Americans really smitten with Democrat
policies? Are they unaware of how/why inflation and crime are so high?
One thing is certain, the left gets to take full ownership of the
failures that are about to unfold.

Seriously...elections with paper ballots somehow were counted the same
night for decades but in 2022 with all of our technology "it will take
weeks". If people can't smell something, they are brain dead.
Resident Brandon, the geriatric Alzheimer patient gets more votes than
anyone in history. Then after destroying our energy independence and
printing cash like a madman causes the biggest inflation in our history
only to enjoy the biggest Democrat midterm results of any president.
It's a huge WTF but people are now conditioned to never question the
results.
Also, a few days before the election, Brandon gets behind the podium to
threaten Americans > telling them they can't question the results and
that it will take weeks to count them. This is the behavior of someone
on the up and up???
And...the power structure is so arrogant that just for laughs runs a
brain dead guy (Fetterman) knowing they can steal enough votes to win.
Rubbing it in everyone's faces. Kari Lake, a strong conservative runs
for governor in a red state only to lose to another person who hid in
the basement??? Yes, WTF.

Ever since the world has been flooded with economic migrants, no one
talks about "rape culture". Maybe S. Lynne can help us out.
*crickets*
How many women are enriched with cultural diversity each year?
Here's another one:
When an economic migrant rapes a native, is it racist to abort?
Sometimes we can escape from, "THE MESSAGE" if we ask the right
questions.
Here's a fun exercise. Explore what the establishment says about
critical thinking.

Bank run on crypto wallet companies.
Accounts are frozen as the wallet company owners get theirs.
Bag holders were the true crypto believers.
Where did the money go?
Oh, well it was a Ponzi scheme dummy.
The more pumping an investment needs, the more people get screwed in
the end.
This is just the start.
Commercial real estate will be a bloodbath.
And to make it interesting, wait until people find out companies were
creating financial instruments out of their own debt.
No end to the spiral of financial hell.

It s actually sad that crypto was ruined by greedy speculators and
sleazy crypto wallet companies lending out and spending other people s
money.
Government regulation only focused on taxing the consumers, not on
keeping the wallet companies honest.
Celebrities and government insiders on the take.
Strangely I suspect regular people will not see the irony in a year when
the fed replaces physical cash for government crypto currency.

(rhymes with Insane in the Membrane)
Europe needs grain in the Ukraine!
Europe needs grain in the Ukraine!
Europe needs grain in the Ukraine!
Europe needs grain in the Ukraine!
Europe needs grain in the Ukraine!
Do my shit
Cargill, an American investment group (privately owned by an Oligarch
family) that owns Ukraine s biggest grain terminal on the Black Sea.
Wears its' 'woke' on it's sleeve despite a deep record of corruption,
bribery, violence, and intimidation: https://www.cargill.com/ Cargill
has a controlling stake in a Ukraine concern called Neptune, which owns
the country s largest grain terminal outside Odessa, and almost
everything surrounding it.
Biden tweet from May:
My administration is invoking the Defense Production Act for the third
time in less than a week to help Cargill deliver the materials needed to
maximize the production of infant formula. We're using the full power of
the federal government to ramp up production and increase supply.
Cargill was the company that partnered with Bill Gates to make lab grown
meat that was promoted all over the liberal industrial complex. Cargill,
PepsiCo, and Nestle still do business with Russia.
Headline: Cargill allowed to continue in Ukraine. Biden official
'Yes, we did talk about food shortages and it s going to be real,' said
US President A Biden offical said, 'They re basically too big to fail at
this point. And yes, I know how that sounds.'
The point of all this: Ukraine's partitioning. Cargill, Putin and Poland
will inherit the earth. Americans pay the bill. Europe freezes and
starves.

This is the point in time where the dad tells the children about a
parallel history lesson about the CIA installing a puppet military
government in Honduras to benefit the slave labor needed for the United
Fruit & Cuyamel Fruit Companies in the early 20th century.
No one will point out what the Clintons were doing in Haiti or why Obama
was enabling Muslim Brotherhood in North Africa.
I love America but I'm just going to say that our leaders are up to evil
exploitation globally and I'm afraid Americans will pay the price soon.
It's never evil corporations or investment groups that pay the price. I
mean - think about recent examples where five prime ministers were
killed after refusing to distribute covid-19 vaccines. No one on earth
wants to talk about that either. And when I bring it up, it's met with
long faces and distant eyes. Like the great Leonard Cohen once said,
'Everybody Knows'.

FTX now claiming they were hacked. SMH
Positioning themselves to say the money was stolen by cyber thieves, not
misappropriated and stolen by the people running the company.
How many pensions, 401ks and U.S. banks were invested in these crypto
companies???

#160 Seriously. How many marriages ruined? I have seen horror stories
perusing reddit. Millenials "managing" their parents money.
"I don't know how to tell them they lost everything."
Unfortunately this will lead to suicides, physical abuse, substance
abuse, etc. The housing collapse is already started even if the normies
are playing hear-no-evil, see-no-evil. Did I mention a guy had a house
for sale in my neighborhood for 500k (a lot for Metro Detroit) for about
a month, then the sign came down. We assumed someone bought it. Later I
checked zillow and it says the house is off the market. Zillow estimate
$179k. OOOF If it was a flipper, the flipper got burned. We saw this in
2007-8. Beyond that, all those layoffs are going to result in a housing
market with desperate sellers and swelling inventory.

I'm already getting black friday mailers. No special products. All
prices are the same, as in no deals whatsoever. Q4 is going to be VERY
BAD for retail. I'm assuming retailers are going into it with low
expectations knowing that sales are down, prices are high, interest
rates are high, balances are maxed. Nothing enticing for the consumer.
What I find appalling is when the retailer puts sinage that shows the
old price with a line through it (a fake, high price), then the regular
prices below it. What a deal! We'll see though. People are always
surprising me these days.

#163 "Your house is your piggy bank!"
"Pull cash out of your house now!"
As if people are actually pulling out cash. They owe all that money
back, now at 3x interest rates. And GOD HELP those with arm loans. You
would think people would learn. In the meantime, I am watching the
stock market skyrocket lately for no apparent reason. Elections stolen.
Earnings down. Inflated prices. We are living in an abstract world -
like a perverse cartoon. My plan remains: stay the course, focus on self
and family, keep on rocking, keep on saying NO to all the forced
dystopia.
At one point, people will actually start feeling real pain and they will
wake the F up from their stupor. The people who stole their way into
power who are rubbing all our faces into their feces better run.
Speaking of those people - the con artists of the 21st century who buy
power with other people's money then escape justice because they were
"Democrat megadonors"... how much more of this are people going to put
up with? Listen to this guy talk (what he was saying and HIS VOICE)
knowing he was raiding the accounts and living like a king in the
Bahamas... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K15BVxibrw8

Glyphosate in our processed food. Hey Siri, why are so many young people
getting cancer? FFWD to Bill Gates telling the world we can eliminate
hunger with proprietary GMO seeds and synthetic fertilizer. I wish I
could put skull and crossbones emojis here.
"Greed-to-risk ratio" - I like that. Remember Greenspan with "irrational
exuberance"? He's shockingly alive - seemed like he was 102 20 years
ago. Imagine what is running through his head now as we have a labor
participation rate of 61.6 percent in 2022 (actual statistic, see link
below). Almost 40% real unemployment. People who think recession is
coming are in for a huge surprise. It's here and getting worse and the
dummy young people won't even work. HOW DO THEY EXIST? If there's some
magic formula outside of government handouts they should share it. Did
someone find the Arc of the Covenant and are they passing out Manna from
God?

PS My goofball uncle and aunt. I'm 100% sure they thought I was nuts
when I told them about the housing market, the food shortages, the
crypto, etc. They are in their 70's but have the ear of their arrogant
PHD, marxist, millenial loser kid (in his 40s). Anything outside of CNN
is a wild right-wing conspiracy theory. Well, I saw them last weekend
and they said to me, "everything you told me is true- send me youtube
links we want to find out more." I was LOL'ing out loud in my mind. I
told them about WEF and how "Build Back Better" was a globalist slogan
and they both yelled, "NO!" at the same time. The normies are getting
red-pilled. I guess $6 for eggs and milk will do that.

Consensus mechanisms:
ensure next block is only one version in blockchain
AND
keep adversaries from derailing system
(90% of currencies use Proof of Work protocol e.g. bitcoin, ethereum..)
A block will only be valid if it hashes to a value smaller than the hash of
the most recent block. By design, mining difficulty increases with time,
securing the blockchain (security through obscurity OR via the richest person
who can afford the computing power)
Currencies like Bitcoin use a protocol that has a mechanism which adjusts
difficulty to be commensurate with the computing power participating in the
mining process. The nodes available are the computing power determining the
hash rate. (There really is no guarantee that the node with the highest
computing power will find the nonce first - due to randomness)
A higher hash rate only means that the node can make attempts faster to find
the nonce for the next block.
Thus enter Byzantine Failures (pun intended)
