Stupid or Liar?

Sorry for the lack of content today, but I was driving to Washington, DC and showing a friend numerous places along the way. Something very bizarre happened in beautiful Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, which still has my brain frazzled. Here’s hoping some of you can explain to me what happened.

A middle-aged couple was walking towards me with their dog. The man had a Baltimore t-shirt on, so I asked him if he was from there. He explained they lived nearby there. I then explained that I spent a month this past summer staying in rural Maryland and added that, while it was very pretty, it was too hot for my Canadian body. The woman suddenly burst out with, “You’re Canadian? I’m so sorry for you.” Given that this was an ambiguous statement, I asked her to explain. A few seconds later, I regretted asking her. She quickly demonstrated that she had full blown TDS and went on an anti-Trump rant. I then politely responded, “Well, I’m not too happy with my government either.” I added that Mark Carney had recently told the New York Times that he feared an invasion from America. She nodded in agreement with Carney’s sentiments. So I asked her, “Do you seriously believe that Canada is at risk of invasion from America?” She nodded in the affirmative. So then I asked, “Do you really fear Donald Trump more than you fear Communist China?!” She once again nodded in the affirmative.

I was about to ask her what her thoughts about Lindsay Clancy were, but strongly suspected I already knew.

She was lying to my face, right? Or is she really as stupid as the Elbows Up Lieberals in Canada?

So Doctor Fruit Fly is frustrated and angry with our new PM? If only Carney would give him a lot more to get angry about.

Suzuki, 90, retired from hosting the show four years ago, but still wants to talk to Canadians about the environment. This time though, the educational message is tinged with exasperation.

Canadians and people around the world have their priorities wrong, he said.

“So if that doesn’t tell you right there what kind of a f–ked-up system we have, that is exploiting the very things that keep us alive. And we don’t put any value on it.”

On the Origins of Peanut Allergy

The epidemiology of peanut allergy is interesting to begin with. It’s not much of a problem in most of the world. Only in America—where roughly 1% of children are thought to be affected, and maybe a dozen people die annually from it—are schoolchildren forbidden from bringing a PB&J to lunch, for fear of endangering a classmate’s life.

So what makes the USA different? […]

Regular readers will know that I’m skeptical of some modern industrial agricultural practices, e.g. killing plants with chemical herbicides and then eating them. So naturally, my first instinct was to wonder: did they approve a weird new pesticide for use on peanuts in 1980? Maybe eating peanuts laced with some chemical toxin could train the body into thinking they’re bad business.

I did a quick search along those lines—something like peanut agricultural approval 1980. I didn’t find anything like what I was expecting. Instead, I got a slew of hits in the form of old newspaper articles, all reporting on something called the “Great Peanut Crisis of 1980”.

The Masochistic Economy

Economies with fiat currencies will always have a tough time handling higher interest rates, given the exponential growth in debt that necessarily goes along with fiat. The insatiable demand from low IQ voters for more free stuff doesn’t help either. Nonetheless, it looks like we’re in for more rate hikes in the near future. Hold onto your hats, folks.

“Further policy adjustments are likely to be needed to ensure inflation comes down to target in a timely fashion,” Barr said in a speech in Chicago. “Inflation is above our 2% target and not clearly trending toward target in a timely way. Moreover, risks to achieving our inflation target have increased, while risks to the labor market have receded.”

To make matters worse, we now have a seven percent solution for the US housing market.

Jacob Rees-Mogg is an elitist pompous ass:

For years, successive UK governments have ignored the will of the people, especially ignoring the best interests of young white men more than any other group. But now, suddenly they need them again … to be slaughtered by drones in Ukraine.

When Chairman Carney and his cabal demand that your children and grandchildren go fight in Ukraine, will you be supportive of such conscription?

Y2Kyoto: Climate Justice

Busted.

A group housed at the New York University School of Law and backed by billionaire climate activist Michael Bloomberg quietly closed its doors in late August amid congressional scrutiny into its funding and operations. The so-called State Energy and Environmental Impact Center’s signature initiative involved placing paid, climate-focused “fellows” in Democrat-controlled state attorney general offices nationwide as those offices sued the oil industry and other energy providers.

The center’s sudden closure comes as a surprise: It continued to update its public database tracking state attorney general actions relevant to its climate priorities until Aug. 31, the date of its apparent closure. […]

The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee opened an investigation into the center last year, stating that its activities “raise questions as to whether participating state attorneys general are acting on independent judgement to best serve the interests of their states’ citizens.”

“The Bloomberg-NYU program effectively offers states partisan money from a billionaire to carry out official functions of their offices,” the panel wrote at the time. Bloomberg, it continued, “disguises his donations as ‘philanthropy'” and uses the impact center as a mechanism “to skirt legislative bodies and effect partisan policy.”
