The failure of our policy in Ukraine and the greater Middle East gets plenty of news coverage, while the failure of our policy in Haiti isn't as well known.
Good morning one and all.
How do you deal with a person who insists the earth is flat?
Well, you ask them to describe the underside of earth. Is there a bunch of roots hanging down? Will you fall off? Where would you fall to?
The “I won’t vote for the lesser of two evils” rubbish
The naive reader might click on this Substack entry thinking that Reich was planning to vote for Donald Trump, the lesser of two evils, and be disappointed. Here's CJ:
Last night TPTB stole an hour from us...all to give you more daylight shopping hours after work. The majority of people DON'T want to mess with time, but hey what kind of government do you think we have, democracy? However stealing time is the least of the theft occurring. Have you heard of the Great Taking, a book that exposes the plan of central bankers to enslave humanity by seizing all assets backed by debt (available for free at the link). There's also an 1.1 hour documentary if you prefer to watch or listen. But wait there's more. There's plans afoot to steal the upcoming election, in part using the 10 million migrants that have come to the US in the last year or so. This week we found out the Biden administration has provided flights from home countries for hundreds of thousands. And, we've not even touched on the giant war grift maintaining the forever war and all the political war chests and pockets. More below the fold.
Afternoon folks!
There's a pile of music this week. Starting off with the blues, we've got albums by Koko Taylor, Roosevelt Sykes and one by Bobby King & Terry Evans who are often known as Ry Cooder's backup singers. Ry Cooder plays guitar on the whole album. After that there's an older Climax Blues Band album, imo their best, followed by an 80's Savoy Brown concert dedicated to their hits.
After that we've got some folk-blues with Luther Dickinson & The Cooperaters (you might know Dickinson from the North Mississippi Allstars) live and a Chris Smither studio album.
Finishing up, in the diversity department, there's an instrumental album from Richard Thompson.
Have a great weekend and enjoy the tunes!
Welcome. Treated to a pair of owls discussing politics out front last night.
Happy Friday everyone. I hope everybody is doing well. Post any photos, memes, or music you like.
The monthly water bill came today. $106. Of that, only $15 is for the amount of water used. The rest is for such things as consumption charge, infrastructure charge, system charge, sewer base rate. I'd love to cut my water bill in half but even if I used no water at all I'd still be paying $91 a month. Oh the joys of living in paradise.
While we're on the subject of water, here are some sea and shore birds from last month's visit to La Jolla Cove.
