The Mecca-Medina conflict

 

Styx is experiencing some turbulence right now, but the latest rumor takes the prize. Apparently, some people somewhere claim that he is a Muslim or is becoming one. Eh? The reason seems to be that he wants to end Trump´s war with Iran. So presumably Styx is now a Twelver Shia Muslim, then. As opposed to a Christian Protestant Nationalist? Or what? 

He seems to be an occultic libertarian. As he has been for the past two decades or so. 

And btw, I´m aware of the "Mecca-Medina conflict" and have read the Tibetan Book of the Dead. There!

Infinite oil

 

Oh no, Tucker convinced Putin (you know, *that* guy) that abiogenic oil actually exist! Jokes aside, the Russian government is apparently under the influence of a maverick believer in the existence of infinite oil. They will finance deep drilling in Komi to see if the hypothesis can be sustained (pun intended). If abiogenic oil exists in large quantities, the Russian Federation can finally (re)claim its rightful place under the sun. Or at least above the fuel reserves. 

Sabine is skeptical, since "everyone" has been looking for the elusive non-fossil oil for decades (around Lake Siljan in Sweden, for instance - not mentioned in the video) and came up short. One aspect she doesn´t discuss is the impact on our climate if abiogenic oil would be found in enormous amounts too cheap to meter. But sure, maybe the good people of Komi could need some long hot summers to grow Lysenkoite water melons, or whatever.

Dude.  

It´s over

 

Notorious controversialist and secret ZZ Top member Dan Dedunking can´t dedunk the climate crisis anymore, as his home town is engulfed by the Flames of the Anthropogenic Apocalypse. But OK, at least his sense of humor is intact. Had to check whether the fire was real, and the answer is...yepp. It´s all over the news as we speak!

- Var är den där jäkla socialiseringsutredningen? 

Rubriken på detta blogginlägg är skämtsam. Det finns ju en del implicita ideologiska skillnader mellan dessa två AB-artiklar om "vänsterns" och socialdemokratins framtid (och nutid)...

Utan trosor i Tyrolen

 

Okej, rubriken är såklart ett skämt. Vår ofrivillige grannbloggare har tydligen avlagt artighetsvisit i Tyrolen och Vorarlberg. Eftersom jag bloggat om båda områdena tidigare (ja, faktiskt) så bestämde jag mig för att länka till hans "tagning" på deras historia.

Coke Classic: Greater than Heaven?

 

On the internet, or is it the Western portion of it, Kurukulla (a form of Red Tara) is sometimes sensationally described as a "Buddhist sex goddess". The video above just came up in my YouTube feed. It´s a public puja (worship service) to Kurukulla from Nepal. Not clear to me whether the people are Tibetans or Newars. ChatGPT claims the latter. Note the Coca Cola bottles in front of the monks?! It seems American civilization has reached even this "Federal Democratic Republic"...and its Buddhist temples. 

Note also that Kurukulla is golden rather than red. Wat means? Nor are there any sexual orgies, so I suppose Californians interested in Neo-"Tantrism" might get a wee bit disappointed. I suppose they could always drink the Coke!

Substance abuse

 

- Beer, anyone?

Overheard on YouTube: "If I have a beer, they call me an alcoholic. But if I have a Fanta, they don´t call me fantastic".

Hostility to Semites

 

The "classical" definition of anti-Semitism is "hostility to Semites, especially Jews". By that standard, Thomas Sheridan´s latest rant is clearly anti-Semitic. And no, I´m not surprised. He is simply reverting to his old self about ten years ago. Yawn. But OK, he doesn´t like Sumerians either, apparently...

Will the next video be about how the Apollonian-Solar Aryans have always been at war with the Cthonic-Lunar Dravidians?

Note how he claims that *both* Yahweh and Jesus Christ were demons! 

Dude.   

A dissident among dissidents

 

A video about controversial French ufologist Jacques Vallée. One thing that struck me is that Vallée´s description of the paranormal "control system" sounds very much like a metaphor for the Deep State or some such cabal. What are Vallée´s own connections to the intelligence community, I wonder? 

That being said, his speculations about the UFO phenomenon being a kind of fairies are as interesting as they are "out there". They are also compatible with the eye witnesses hallucinating everything! However, there seems to be enough evidence that *something* is going on, not just in our tender psyches, but also in the skies above...

Will the real UFO disclosure please stand up?

For the record

 

Some drama is building in the United States. Again! I´m old enough to remember the rumor back in 2016 that Barron Trump is autistic. However, I didn´t know Melania Trump had actually sued somebody for spreading it. 

It will be interesting to see the reactions of Trump supporters if and when this supposed fact becomes a thing. Since MAGA probably see autism as evidence of demon possession, I assume they will simply deny that Barron is neuro-divergent (the pro-Trump MAGA-ites, obviously). However, MAHA might show him sympathy. Assuming MAHA is still a thing? 

Pakman is (of course) right that the Democrats will fuck up if they start making fun of Barron´s alleged autism. But why does he have to point that out at all? Hmmm...
