We all have favorite hotel room memories. This one is in Libya. The purpleness was fabulous. Image
My hotel in Ndjamena solved that problem with this sign Image
On one my many high speed moto trips I took this still life of dinner. Van Gogh is jealous. Image
Sometimes if you pay a little extra you get a TV. There was nothing on this actual TV in Santa Monica and apparently the tech learning curve is daunting. ©RYP Image

Journalists trying to write about disinformation. nytimes.com/2021/11/28/bus…
A surprising lack of deference and reference to black and grey operations of World War Two. Some of them just one google away. smithsonianmag.com/history/fighti…
World War One "There must have been more deliberate lying in the world from 1914 to 1918 than in any other period of the world's history" bl.uk/world-war-one/…

The media tries real hard to explain weapons but they just don't get it.
Failgun videos are my favorites. Guns are dangerous kids.
Guns are tools and machines. Very ancient mechanical designs that rely on compressing explosions to direct a dense mass object towards a target. Optimally to destroy the target via trauma and concussion.

It used to be Yemen and Afghanistan. cnn.com/2021/11/26/wor…
FYI that's a population skew based on age of population. Lot more kids in Afghanistan and Yemen. But SAS also forgets to overlay violence. The numbers show Greenland is a very very dangerous place. smallarmssurvey.org/database/globa… Image
America does have a problem. Suicides outnumber murders 6 To 1 for whites; Murders outnumber suicides 3.5 To 1 for blacks. And a growing rural despondency. acsh.org/news/2017/03/1…

There is an aggressive campaign to deify Kyle Rittenhouse and demonize his victims. The end result is to normalize vigilantism. I am not sure if this is a cultural throwback to Billy the Kid and the dime novel but it's interesting.
The narrative is similar The factual basis erased.
the funniest part is that the ads that monetize these videos are pitching anti 5G beanies and low testosterone quack cures. ImageImage

The best private security scandal you'll read all week. Dark bananas, tin foil rooms, nuke bunkers, paramilitary missions to Mexico, pissed off strippers and Trump's private CIA called Aymntor. Can you hear that scrubbing sound? nypost.com/2021/11/20/bil…
Aram Roston first figured it out in 2017. A bunch of former Dewey people wanted to provide a private CIA. Pompeo insisted that the actual CIA would get much more vicious. Trump was positive deep state was spying on him. Aymtor to the rescue. buzzfeed.com/aramroston/tru…
Then Matt Cole at the Intercept discovered that the private CIA was even crazier than Rostom imagined. "John [Maguire] was certain that the deep state was going to kick the president out of office within a year,” theintercept.com/2017/12/04/tru…
