Media is cleverly describing this as a “weird” fluke instead of the new normal. We won’t be hearing about the imminent threats to our survival, as they distract us from working & consuming. It’s going to get very ugly, very fast. Prepare accordingly. stateline.org/2023/06/23/dro…
Soooo, now that global food prices have hit record highs, and the US just ended food assistance for millions, what is the plan to feed people amid catastrophic food and water shortages? What’s that? The plan is to kill folks with mass disease before they starve to death? Oh, ok.
“About 26.5 million Americans reported sometimes or often not having enough to eat between June 7 and June 19, according to the Census's latest Household Pulse Survey - up 4.4% from last month's survey and 12% from June 2022.” reuters.com/world/us/us-hu…
“Corporations & oligarchs with massive fortunes can hire as many junktanks (so-called thinktanks), troll farms, marketing gurus, psychologists & micro-targeters as they need to devise justifications & to demonise, demoralise, abuse & threaten people trying to sustain a habitable planet.” theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
But if we can persuade the masses FEAR & KNOWLEDGE are the problems, then the logical solution is preserving the status quo, & the record profits can continue while we collectively march to our mass premature deaths. Everyone wins! 🥰
BREAKING: The news, & our collective survival:

Everyone is asleep, blissfully unaware of what’s coming.

Who could have predicted…
“A new report finds the federal government is spending billions on crop failures caused by extreme weather — and it’s growing only more expensive.” thegazette.com/agriculture/re…
We aren’t ready. The public has no idea what’s coming because media narratives are carefully managed, and governments have decided Keeping Up Appearances is more profitable than warning the public & planning for climate collapse.
I’m personally excited to finally see society judging cheating spouses so brutally.
When I found myself in this situation a decade ago, we were still blaming victims, behaving as if infidelity is inevitable & a non-issue, and if you spoke publicly about it, you were shunned.
Apparently times are changing, & I am here for it. I am SO tired of living in a world that is controlled by the con artists and cheaters.
When I found out, I got on Facebook & started venting publicly, & my family got SO MAD at me for telling the secrets. My cheating husband did not field any of that anger or resentment. But the old days are gone, & now we get to talk about it. It’s delicious.
Since Covid destroyed my executive function, I can’t perform a lot of tasks. Hearing, “just do it” isn’t effective. If I could do it, there would be no problem. I can’t explain WHY I can’t function anymore, after decades of efficiency handling business. No one believes me anyway.
I’m on Year 6 of everyone believing I woke up in 2020 and consciously decided to be a piece of shit who actively refuses to do normal life stuff. Instead of being viewed as victims, we’re viewed as selfish assholes who just don’t want to. This is deliberate by the way.
Even the thought of making a simple business-oriented phone call makes me want to kill myself. This is not normal. I had no trouble doing this before. I am getting nothing accomplished because my brain is not right, but society won’t listen or acknowledge this is occurring.
“The screwworm, a fly that embeds its larvae into the living flesh of animals and humans, has spread through Central America, including Mexico.” texastribune.org/2025/05/21/tex…
Everyone has expertly memory-holed this. It’s chilling.
This phenomenon highlights exactly why we never make progress: Everyone ignores human rights violations when their preferred “side” is in power. They only begin to show concern when the other side takes over & does it too.
If you needed to secure antivirals, but your doctors won’t follow the science or acknowledge SARS-CoV-2 is a persistent virus that must be cleared, how would you go about doing that? Are there doctors who do remote visits & take cash? Do we go to China? Dark web? Beg? Plead? Cry?
It has been a full year since the NIH Director admitted SARS-CoV-2 is a live replicating virus that persists.
The below thread on all the areas SARS-CoV-2 persists is my most lengthy thread on this app.
