Tetrad

 


There is a "blood moon" (a kind of lunar eclipse) this Tuesday. Doomsdayers on-line are already connecting it with the US attack on the Iranian regime, Gog and Magog, and (surprise) the end of the world as-we-know-it. 

Now, read the articles linked below. They are from 2018, when similar apocalyptic fantasies were projected onto an earlier "blood moon". This because of some apocalyptic-mongering book from 2016 about "a tetrad" of such lunar eclipses.

Point being: we´re still here, and "blood moons" (including their alleged "tetrads") have entirely natural explanations. So no, the world won´t end this time either. Let me guess? The next time there is a bloody eclipse (next year, say) I will have to repost these links to debunk it *again*?

No coke in Doha

 


Jag kan förstå att någon måste mellanlanda i t.ex. Qatar. Som den gamle popparen Dr Alban i artikeln länkad här nedan. Det är svårare att förstå folk som bor på lyxhotell i t.ex. Dubai under en rätt så uppenbar internationell kris i närområdet. Jag menar, varför i all sin dar åker man just *dit* på semestern?!

Stop killing Judas!!!

 


OK, this was somewhat funny. Apparently, a classical skit from "MAD TV".

OK, this meme was actually funny...

Epstein Fury

 


For the record, I don´t think Trump is attacking the Iranian regime cuz Epstein something-something. Even during his most (rhetorically) peaceful period, he always had an aggressive posture against Iran. Something he had since at least the 1980´s! Of course he can use it to deflect attention from the Epstein files, but so what? Other dynamics are at play here. Obviously.
