The early morning mist just after sunrise yesterday was just right for me to see the “Brocken Spectre” phenomena. Oddly it’s still a little disconcerting even when you understand exactly what is happening.

Watching the US right now is like watching someone try to play a Paradox game for the first time.
We’re three months in and they’re already:
- trying to disappear US citizens
- threatening to de-dollarize and destroy the global financial system
- stopping research on a breakthrough cancer cure, letting drug resistant gonorrhea and measles spread freely
- preparing to invade Denmark and Panama

THE BLACK TOWER (1987): Channel 4 aired John Smith's stunning 'architectural horror' short about a mysterious black building which follows a man wherever he goes. A metaphor for depression, it's in the same 'once seen, never forgotten' category as La Cabina.

During WW2 the US army needed over 750,000 typewriters to keep things functioning across all theatres.
The need was so great they requisitioned civilian typewriters and created a national shortage. Typewriter repair units were seen as critical army personel.
I'll do a thread on it at some point.

Anas Sarwar gave a car crash interview to STV, asked why the jobs at Grangemouth are going despite saying "Vote Labour to save the jobs" during the GE campaign, he kept repeating "This is a privately owned company." Did he not know that when he made the pledge?

Something to remember is that the Techbro billionaire class were rarely the actual tech pioneers. They're the ones who bankrolled it, or engineered a controlling share interest.
They're just Railway Robber Barons 2.0.
It's why they're crap at actual tech. Their 'skill' was money, timing or theft.
