HIPPYVALLEY

80 here but I could do without the steady breeze of pollen chapping my throat.

There were several videos on my FB feed, of hikers on the AT, walking along the edge of the ground fires while giving commentary. Seems safe.

Low of 46F this morning. Feels nice, cool and dry.

Is the world economy really running low on everything or do we need to curb our consumerism and "throw away" mentality? https://finance.yahoo.com/news/world-economy-suddenly-running-low-040118644.html

The main issue is fecal bacteria from all the babies being pushed around in them.

Yup, because our government would never lie to us.

I think it's more a percentages thing. Reddit has been around for a long time and has about 50 million active daily users with countless subreddits so you are bound to get a lot of nonsense getting seeded from there onto social media. Plus, unlike FB you do not need to subscribe to browse. There is a lot of quality posting that goes on there too. The problem is, most people see something and post it on their FB page without ever looking into if it is actually true. Don't forget, there is lots of propaganda posting acoss all social media, globally, by paid shills. China may be the worst.

It's shameless and too many people trust the MSM. Remember those WMD's in Iraq? Oops.

Stock footage is common practice in the media, there is no law against the news lying and fear porn sells. Some of the recent footage of Indians in the street with oxygen tanks due to the Covid outbreak, was actually footage from an April 2020 Gas/Chemical leak.

Have a kid, we haven't owed since.

Did anybody catch the Air Force UFO (UAP) piece on 60 Minutes last night? It basically was pentagon and Air Force personnel saying the phenomena is real, physical and not of United States origin. I guess I had not realized that there were hundreds of sightings by Navy and Air Force guys over the past decade. Anyway, it was a little weird. They are definitely teasing stuff out leading up to this June report that is due. The report will probably say the craft are of Chinese and Russian origin and we need to double our defense budget.

This has become the way of our society and not just with the pandemic.

Pretty much missed the showers here so far. I will take anything, the pollen is killing me. I rarely have allergies but when I do it feels like the flu minus the fever.

There’s not any reason to freak out if vaccinated people are testing positive if they are not getting real sick.

Same. I don't mind a warm house with fans, just don't like swamp ass.

I was just messaging with a friend of mine out in Seattle and she said the brewery she manages just had to just down for a few days because three fully vaccinated staff members came down with minor symptoms and tested positive for Covid. I wonder how common or rare this is? I know there has been a few items here and there in the news lately. The fact they none of them got real sick is encouraging but I'm hoping we don't have a wave of this in the fall.

If there’s any wind at the end of the week I bet we get some red flag warnings.

I only use coinbase but I imagine non-US based brokers allow margin and leveraged trading. Come back in five years and probably only 10% of the current projects will still be around.

I saw a match at Boston Garden where Bruno and Andre the giant were tag team partners against Stan Hanson and Sgt Slaughter.

Yeah, even though I had cashed out this week I had to jump back in on a little Cardano at 1.16 then at 2.24. I think it has room to run up close to four dollars by summer.

Yeah, I just did an hour of yardwork and it feels like somebody gave me a Valium.

Might be able to get back into some Stein talk by the end of next week?

Premium Rum is one of the few dark liquors that hasn’t gone through the roof yet. You can still pick up bottles of 10 and 15 year-old rum small batch Caribbean Rums for under 50 bucks.

Start with on the rocks and then move onto a splash of premium ginger beer.
