Homesteading
March 16th, 2021It’s not a new message, but it’s one that’s worth repeating, for those who might be receptive to it.
I received an email from someone asking me how I saw “it” coming so long ago. The answer is that there have always been people who viewed the status quo as toxic and unbearable. For me, while living in Southern California around twenty years ago, my first thought upon waking each morning was, “I’m dead if I don’t get out of here.”
So, my move to a very rural area fifteen years ago was not done out of some philosophical, altruistic motivation. It was much more of a white knuckled, pell-mell escape. There were many questions about a lot of things and not a lot of answers…
Fuck it. Just go. It can’t be any worse than this.
Any regrets?
No. None at all.
There are annoyances, but all of that is noise level compared to the benefits.

Everyone knows that it is becoming harder and harder to maintain a life of independence or achieve community with like-minded people in the modern urban environment. Today Curtis Stone (formerly known as The Urban Farmer) joins us to discuss how he is creating a homestead in a rural area to provide food, water, energy and shelter for his family. We discuss the growing movement of people taking the “stead pill” and how others can explore the homesteading solution.

The Sovietization of the American Press
March 16th, 2021Via: National Post:
The old con of the Manufacturing Consent era of media was a phony show of bipartisanship. Legitimate opinion was depicted as a spectrum stretching all the way from “moderate” Democrats (often depicted as more correct on social issues) to “moderate” Republicans (whose views on the economy or war were often depicted as more realistic). That propaganda trick involved constantly narrowing the debate to a little slice of the Venn diagram between two established parties. Did we need to invade Iraq right away to stay safe, as Republicans contended, or should we wait until inspectors finished their work and then invade, as Democrats insisted?
The new, cleaved media landscape advances the same tiny intersection of elite opinion, except in the post-Trump era, that strip fits inside one party. Instead of appearing as props in a phony rendering of objectivity, Republicans in basically all non-Fox media have been moved off the legitimacy spectrum, and appear as foils only. Allowable opinion is now depicted stretching all the way from one brand of “moderate” Democrat to another.
Microbes Unknown to Science Discovered on The International Space Station
March 16th, 2021Via: ScienceAlert:
Researchers from the United States and India working with NASA have now discovered four strains of bacteria living in different places in the ISS – three of which were, until now, completely unknown to science.
…
All four of the strains belong to a family of bacteria found in soil and freshwater; they are involved in nitrogen fixation, plant growth, and can help stop plant pathogens. Basically, good bacteria to have around if you’re growing things.
You might wonder what such soil bacteria were doing all the way up on the ISS, but the astronauts living on the space station have been growing small amounts of food for years, so it’s unsurprising that we’ve found plant-related microbes aboard.
Germany, Italy, France Suspend AstraZeneca Shots Amid Safety Fears
March 15th, 2021Via: Reuters:
Germany, France and Italy said on Monday they would suspend AstraZeneca COVID-19 shots after several countries reported possible serious side-effects, but the World Health Organization (WHO) said there was no proven link and people should not panic.
Dr. Byram Bridle on COVID-19 Mass Vaccination Programs: “We Are Optimizing The Chance For A Variant To Emerge That Can Bypass All Of These Vaccines”
March 15th, 2021New Zealand is particularly screwed:
A country like New Zealand, which has isolated itself and may not have substantial, naturally acquired immunity, which is gonna be very broad and is relying on these vaccines, may be able to vaccinate their population.
But if the rest of the world has these variants circulating, all those vaccinated individuals are gonna be susceptible to these variants that don’t care about that spike protein specific immunity anymore.
And you may, as a population, have wanted much more broad immunity that’s conferred by natural natural acquisition of immunity, meaning you acquire the infection and clear it. So I’m very concerned about this.
Via: Dryburgh.com:
If you were to ask me as a scientist, how would I design an experiment that would maximise our chance of generating a highly immunio evasive variant of the SARS Coronavirus 2?
My answer would be, essentially, the exact way we are rolling out these vaccines, precisely the way they’re rolling out these vaccines.
…
The way we’re rolling this out, as I said, we are optimizing the chance for a variant to emerge that can bypass all of these vaccines.

Before COVID, Gates Planned Social Media Censorship of Vaccine Safety Advocates With Pharma, CDC, Media, China and CIA
March 14th, 2021Via: Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. – The Defender:
Over the last two weeks, Facebook and other social media sites have deplatformed me and many other critics of regulatory corruption and authoritarian public health policies. So, here is some fodder for those of you who have the eerie sense that the government/industry pandemic response feels like it was planned — even before there was a pandemic.
The attached document shows that a cabal of powerful individuals did indeed begin planning the mass eviction of vaccine skeptics from social media in October 2019, a week or two before COVID began circulating. That month, Microsoft founder Bill Gates organized an exercise of four “table-top” simulations of a worldwide coronavirus pandemic with other high-ranking “Deep State” panjandrums. The exercise was referred to as Event 201.
Gates’ co-conspirators included representatives from the World Bank, the World Economic Forum (Great Reset), Bloomberg/Johns Hopkins University Populations Center, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, various media powerhouses, the Chinese government, a former Central Intelligence Agency/National Security Agency director (there is no such thing as a former CIA officer), vaccine maker Johnson & Johnson, the finance and biosecurity industries and Edelman, the world’s leading corporate PR firm.
At Gates’ direction, these eminences role-played members of a Pandemic Control Council, wargaming government strategies for controlling the pandemic, the narrative and the population. Needless to say, there was little talk of building immune systems, off-the-shelf remedies or off-patent therapeutic drugs and vitamins, but lots of chatter about promoting uptake of new patentable antiviral drugs and vaccines.
But the participants primarily focused on planning industry-centric, fear-mongering, police-state strategies for managing an imaginary global coronavirus contagion culminating in mass censorship of social media.
Oddly, Gates now claims that the simulation didn’t occur. On April 12, 2020, Gates told BBC, “Now here we are. We didn’t simulate this, we didn’t practice, so both the health policies and economic policies, we find ourselves in uncharted territory.”
Unfortunately for that whopper, the videos of the event are still available across the internet. They show that Gates and team did indeed simulate health and economic policies. It’s hard to swallow that Gates has forgotten.
Geert Vanden Bossche, PhD, DVM: Halt All Covid-19 Mass Vaccination Immediately
March 14th, 2021Update: Vanden Bossche’s Theory: Mass Vaccination Will Breed Dangerous Variants – Fact or Fiction?
—
My guess is that Geert Vanden Bossche is among the most fierce vaccine advocates anywhere. He serves Bill Gates!
And yet, behold…
Via: Dryburgh.com:
Basically, we’ll very soon be confronted with a super-infectious virus that completely resists our most precious defense mechanism: The human immune system.
From all of the above, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to imagine how the consequences of the extensive and erroneous human intervention in this pandemic are not going to wipe out large parts of our human population.
One could only think of very few other strategies to achieve the same level of efficiency in turning a relatively harmless virus into a bioweapon of mass destruction.

Ireland Recommends Temporary Deferral of Astrazeneca COVID-19 Vaccine; Health Workers Hospitalized
March 14th, 2021Via: Reuters:
Ireland’s National Immunisation Advisory Committee recommended the temporary deferral of AstraZeneca’s COVID-19 vaccine on Sunday following new information received from the Norwegian Medicines Agency, the country’s health ministry said.
Three health workers in Norway who had recently received the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine are being treated in hospital for bleeding, blood clots and a low count of blood platelets, its health authorities said on Saturday.
Are U.S. Special Forces Quietly Using Armed Robots?
March 12th, 2021Via: Forbes:
It seems Special Forces had an urgent need for an armed robot and bypassed the existing Army projects. An R&D budget document from the Office of the Secretary of Defense reveals that Special Operation Command developed a Lightweight Remote Weapons System (LRWS), a miniature version of the CROWS turret:
“Description: LRWS rapidly developed and evaluated a remote weapon station with significant size weight and power reduction to enable operations on remotely operated small ground vehicles.”
The LRWS cuts the weight from 350 pounds to just 70, making it small enough to be mounted on vehicles like the Talon. It may be adapted from the commercial Super Lite version of CROWS which also weighs 70 pounds. It includes a daytime zoom camera and thermal imager plus laser range finder. It supports 5.56mm, 7.62mm, and .50 caliber ammunition – either a machinegun or a sniper rifle. Such weapons can be extremely accurate, as shown by the remote assassination of an Iranian nuclear scientist.
The document specifies LRWS is a ‘man-in-the-loop’ system controlled by a human operator rather than being an autonomous weapon.
