screw grandkids


SCREW GRANDKIDS

Sunday is my Two Article Day, following my one day off a week from writing on Saturday.  I function a lot better all week from taking that one day off, a break from taxing my brain overly much.  But that doesn’t always translate over to great Sunday articles.  Sometimes having to squeeze that second article out of my ass translates into less than stellar material.  I figure, hey, you get a long article every day even if they aren’t all worthy of framing, but sometimes I still feel bad about it.  Like last weeks Yuppie Scum articles, which I didn’t feel turned out that good ( I re-read it for grammar corrections but didn’t try to absorb it for publishing worthiness.  I won’t reread it until after I’ve published it, for fear of not approving of it.  Yeh, sometimes you just have to bow to the time pressure of quantity publishing-I strive for quality but it simply isn’t realistic to expect perfection constantly ).  Like today-is this even something that needs discussed?  Probably not.  So sue me for a partial refund on your subscription cost.

All those idiots blathering on about balancing the budget, Austrian School economics and the morality of screwing our grandkids by piling up the debt?  Morons.  That crap doesn’t matter.  I’m not trying to sound like a liberal retard, just a Mathusian Survivalist.  In the long run, every civilization completely and utterly collapses due to resource depletion and soil infertility.  That is a given.  The western colonial civilization has been around for five hundred years and is in the process of collapsing.  Globalization is in effect slurping that stale beer from the carpet quicker ( reference some Gore Warming porn star talking about using unconventional petroleum sources as akin to a drunk getting the last of his fix in the bar after hours ), so while there might be enough resources in South America or Africa to keep the party going longer you still run into the transportation issue.  The West, firmly attaching itself to the five century old “central bank to fund colonialism debt paradigm”, will shortly crash and implode from economic issues-mainly the derivatives market issue.  The East, mostly China but some Russian, has dedicated the new silk road infrastructure construction to more energy efficiently hauling to actually kick the can a bit more down the road but overpopulation in that very part of the world will impede their economic colonialism project. 

*

Everything we have been doing, from quantitative easing to middle east occupation to the aforementioned derivatives gaming is all a moot point.  The collapse is already baked into the cake.  End, stop.  When you cry and whine about these strategies, you are either hoping the good times will roll again or you think the collapse can be averted or you think its effects can be marginalized.  No, the Roman citizens were NOT sitting around looking at invading barbarians otherwise unaware of collapse.  They were busy dying from famine and pestilence in place, or busy dying on the road as refugees.  Stair step collapses are really cool to dream of, but you can’t look at animal and plant overpopulation collapse and die-off and discount humans following the same path by declaring us smarter.  Smarter?  Are you friggin serious?  We denude our environment and die, as a survival strategy for our species.  We are smarter?  And even if we were, smart doesn’t pull resources out of your ass.  As a species, we might be better able to recover from collapse, using strategies from cannibalism to fire to cook otherwise inedible foods, but that is rebounding, that is NOT preventing collapse.

*

Every civilization in history rose to power by out consuming and out breeding its rivals.  Then, after the resources were over consumed by the very overpopulating that won them victory they crashed and burned ( even today, demographics are discussed as if that was the only consideration for survival.  Oh, look, the Germans are below replacement level, they will all die.  Well, probably in the past that was true.  The group that breed the most and grabbed the most resources survived.  Now, tell me how that is applicable during a resource contraction?  The victor isn‘t the one that reacted by going on the offensive after resources began to diminish, as the Muslims to Europe are doing now.  The victor to resource contraction must act prior to that point.  The Germans survive well by cultural adaptation, due to geography.  Their below replacement birthrate might be a survival mechanism, other factors changing such as their Dear Leader at present being hung from a lamp post and the open borders policy reversed ).  I’ve said it before and I’ll keep repeating it, you don’t end up with ZERO records of a time period when you are adapting successfully to a collapse, as in a stair step descent.  You end up with a lack of records from a total catastrophic collapse.  I’ve also said, if I’m wrong you slow collapse as usual.  But if THEY are wrong that total collapse NEVER happens, you die if you listen to them.

*

Only a damn fool has no back-up plan.  The back-up plan for slow collapse is you don’t burn your bridges.  You plan for slow AND total collapse.  What is the back-up plan for the Slow Collapsers?  If they aren’t planning for total collapse they have no back-up plan ( your back-up plan can’t be NO collapse, since we’ve been in one for fifty years ).  I trust we are all clear on this?  So, we can go back to assuming total collapse?  Sweet Baby Jesus on roller skates.  As a species, we condemn X generation to suffer, after A, B, and C generation has wallowed in decadence and luxury.  We are a boom and bust species.  Your grandkids are already screwed, even if we balanced the budget and returned to the gold standard and built the southwest Berlin Wall.  Not that we WILL do any of that because the Spice Must Flow ( by which we speak not of the usually referred petroleum, but the wealth to the elite ) and until we start throwing ropes over the lamp posts, nothing will change.  And nobody is grabbing their ropes because the fast food outlets are still serving corn derivative meals, the football cable networks are still broadcasting their circuses and not one swinging dingus out there is going to downgrade their living arrangements to save their grandchildren, let alone yours.  When every climate change advocate gives up all their cars in favor of bicycles, I’ll lend them an ear.  Until then, you are an evil puke who hates my as yet hatched grandkids.  Put up or shut up, bitches.

*

Why do you care so much about economics when ecology is so much more important?  Granted, in the past and at present, economics are all that matter as far as your personal survival as well as advancement.  But in the future, economics won’t mean spit.  A large deficit isn’t what is going to cause us to starve and riot, but the end of the petrodollar could.  One is an abstraction, the other a concrete means of feeding ourselves, even if both are economics.  One is pure economics, the other a calorie proxy.  As a matter of fact, screwing your grandkids now with our policies is all that is keeping the present generation from starving already.  Screwing your future generations to live today, eating your seed corn?  The first step to the end of the collapse.  You act like fiscally irresponsible actions are boneheaded, when they are actions of those with no other choice.  Remember, that little thing about the collapse being baked into the cake?  These policies should actually be the signal to you that collapse IS assured.  A confirmation. 

*

How many of us want to be assured of a collapse, or not, to confirm the actions of preparedness?  Yet every time we get a confirmation we disguise it with economics, transforming it into merely a worrying statistic that is troublesome but hardly actionable?  Did anyone care that the deep well blow out in the Gulf Of Mexico was the beginning of the end for a large source of our fake fuel?  No, they focused on tourism and the price of seafood.  How about Fukishima?  More focus on government lies than the beginning of the death of alternate fuel sources ( granted, the Peak Uranium issue settled that long ago, but this gets no press ) or the other issues of nuclear power.  We look through the lens of economics and lose sight of more important issues, daily.  Damn fool monkey men, after wearying from flinging feces they glom on to whatever is shiny and pretty in the corner of their cages.  Easily fooled and distracted.

  1. Collapse was a lot more fun when I was 19 and immortal. Now at 59 I'm jaded, fat, slow and much much smarter. While I can't change the course of history, I can help my grandkids get a few useful skills and attitudes. Better than nothing, if not nearly enough.

    The slow collapse has been kinda boring, so I've gone ahead and had some fun. Fast collapse gets all the attention as it's a great starting point for survival fantasy fiction. In reality it's never fun at all.

    However, the problem with slow collapse is that it grinds everything into dust. There's nothing left to rebuild with. At least a fast collapse leaves a few resources behind for the rebuild.

    I've been amazed at how many rabbits have been pulled out the hat so far. Also impressed by those who've been able to get others to suffer the consequences and pay the bills. While I can't guess when it'll all fall apart, I headed for hills decades ago.

    1. It is actually simply amazing, if one can keep their sense of humor and appreciate the effort and creativity going into kicking the can down the road. I can't tell the timing better than anyone else but it does seem like the last three to five years they stepped over the return on investment threshold and now nothing works but merely accelerates the problems, so you would think it can't be long now.

  2. Note to self. Add a few lengths of lamppost rope to the preps.

    1. A few SPOOLS, and you'll still run out. I love how the rich and think-they're-connected actually think their money protects against all, even a punk with a paving stone. Easy targets.

    2. as long as there is a semblance of law and order the well connected will have the best possible protection that money can buy. But of course, purchased protection has its limits when people have nothing left to lose and are filled with hatred for their targets.
      Running and hiding are the only options for the targets then. But run to where? And how can one hide while not changing their lifestyle?
      I think there are some rich who will pull through, but most of them are already going grey and running for cover.
