over the olduvai gorge 2


JUMPING THE SHARK OVER THE OLDUVAI GORGE 2
Myths and fables are important, teaching the less than brilliant the tribal culture. Movies are our shared myths. Going back and re-watching almost anything from the 1990's, you can easily see how the PC fables started ( beginning slow and almost innocently ) and how those twenty plus years of myth have created the new generations reality. The idiots you see trumpeting the new reality aren't doing it because they ARE idiots, they are doing so just because the PC Way is reality. Their being morons just disguises the fact.
*
Zombies are a great way to stay safe while prepping, pretending it is a fantasy game so that no one judges you for being a crazy survivalist. We all know, though, crazy as a fox. The Terminator franchise, even the newest PC pandering garbage that it looks to be, is another safe myth to hide your prepping behind. Not that movies two through six are about the apocalypse, because there are no more than a particular brand of violent action films, but the first movie was, most definitely. And that is part of the popular myth.
*
We now speak of the NSA controlled Internet as “Skynet”. We speak of the relentless assault by Libards as “Terminator attacks”. Did you happen to notice in Terminator ( as is, number one, the ONLY real Terminator movie. The second installment paid homage, but went no further ), near the beginning in a “future flashback”, the screen identifier read “Los Angeles 2029”? I don't believe any physic mumbo jumbo as if it were prophetic or anything, but I find it fascinating that one of the premier apocalyptic myths gave us that date.
*
Nuclear devastated L.A., 2029, and oil induced apocalypse Olduvai Theory, 2030. If you remember, myth as history means the message is more important than chronological facts. History as a profession is itself a myth. Looking JUST at “history” reported since WWII, it is almost all myth. The Holocaust could be all propaganda, all myth. It certainly is used as a myth to justify the creation and support of Israel, just as the Evil Hitler myth has justified the US becoming the world empire. Oh, sorry. You wanted me to believe the Holocaust? Then don't censor dissenting voices. I don't care if it happened or not, but I sure care about the First Amendment.
*
9/11 is all myth, and the more people defend the government version, to the point of wanting to censor dissenters, the more I believe all that history is pure myth ( or, less politely, propaganda ). All this crap you hear about oil is myth. When National Geographic tells me with pretty pictures that Peak Oil is twenty-five years away ( and this was BEFORE fracking, which magically eliminated Peak Oil itself ), I know it JUST happened. In a tribal setting, myth is powerful, a needed tool. It substitutes for schooling, as a way to convey cultural programming.
*
Since children are taught how to be craftsmen, the girls homemakers and breeders, the boys warriors and herders, that apprenticeship is vastly superior survival wise than a formal education. We think we are far superior to those primitive ass Bush Bitches, as if textbooks are superior to legends and fables. But, hell, you know as well as I do that most Americans learn more history from movies than books. More current affairs from politics than reading. More education from like minded political view holders than from reading. Not to suggest reading teaches more. Just that it CAN teach one to question myth.
*
It doesn't necessarily. Coke bottle eyeglass wearing eggheads in ivory towers read all their lives and don't learn dingus. They just regurgitate the myths that keep them employed. People living in poverty close to violence ONLY know fables and myths and are smarter than your average college professor. There is nothing wrong with myths, if they teach rather than confuse. But all of today's myths ARE propaganda in the worst way. Not used to teach and guide for the sake of the tribe, but used to exploit and kill you.
*
Everything you think you know about America, its oil industry, its economy, its politics and everything else that is pertinent to your deciphering the future for your own survival, that is all evil elite created myth. We almost had a Vice President who firmly believed that if we just Drilled, Baby, Drill, all the oil we would ever need would appear. That is Pure D myth. Fracking is physically possible, but economically and EROI impossible. Just because we did it doesn't mean we can continue to do so. If you recall, we got men into space. That didn't make economic sense, though, because we never got to the point of mining the moon or asteroids. It was just a hole to pour energy down.
*
Nazi Germany and Apartheid South Africa turned coal into oil. And they were able to do so for a very short time, but it was a negative return on energy. They used the current infrastructure as you would use the seed corn to survive in a famine. It wasn't sustainable. So too fracking. If it was real, it wouldn't have needed the mythology accompanying it. I mean, REALLY?!? You pay Glen Beck the alcoholic glory hound douche canoe to pimp fracking? Sure, why not. It worked on most people. The same ones buying the Rush Limbaugh “Republicans can't be evil, not even after The Patriot Act” myths.
*
Most Americans, on both sides of the political isle, are tribal in that myth has taken over literacy. It wouldn't matter if none of them had gone to school, except that the entire twelve years was just training them to accept the base propaganda so that the following lifetime of lies would be swallowed without thought. Germany ( almost ) rose to world power with institutionalized education ( as did Japan ) so well done brain power fueled the economy. Now Germany teaches Diversity Is Strength and the economy depends on loaning money to Greece and Italy, a sure bet financially.
*
Mass education can be used for good or evil, but mostly anymore everywhere it is just evil. Americans, in between learning to self-hate better than Germans, at least if White, are busy being taught pure evil myth, the information literally from a century ago ( breadbasket of the world, the Saudi Arabia of the world, the military superpower, the economic superpower, immigrants grow the economy, etc. ). The NEW educational subjects come from nearly two hundred years ago, akin to Southern preachers justifying slavery. The new slave class deserves exploitation, we are all taught. And WHY we are taught that has nothing to do with politics, even if using the analogy of communism is almost true, and everything to do with energy use. Continued tomorrow.

  1. re:
    supplements

    Most vitamin and mineral supplements use a coating to delay absorption. Crushing can ruin this coating, causing the nutrients to be destroyed by stomach acid.

    By waiting to dissolve in the gut, different vit-min absorb at different rates and in different places along our intestines.

    This can change with fluids, primarily water to carry the material. That water is then extracted during the multi-hour journey toward excretion.

    Of course, few nutrients are absorbable through a 'leaky gut' destroyed by poisons such as gluten, alcohol, dairy, and other sugars from starchy fillers like rice and corn.

    To use the nutrients in food and supplements, gut repair requires an extended period of closely watching everything consumed; a single dose of Round-Up can destroy months of healing.

    But... the tragedy of our times is mineral depletion in our farm soils. I was part of a team at University of Oregon in Corvallis working with the state medical examiner (coroner's office) to evaluate foods canned in the (estimated) 1870s. Compared to 2016 farmed foods, the foods from a century ago were about a hundred times healthier. Imagine eating an apple or yam, and gaining a hundred-fold increase in vitality.

    The downside was the amount of lead used in the canning process. Just like today, the people then didn't know what they didn't know.

    Here is my suggestion about crushing supplements:
    Chew them until saturated with saliva. Chewing is an essential part of our digestion; saliva helps swallowing. This's the way we are designed to work best.

    1. Crushing might be sub-optimal but my heartburn is on a hair trigger. It almost got to the point of NOT taking the vitamins.

      Delete
    2. Or you can try what my doctor suggested, and split the difference - crack the vitamin tablet in half. Most of the coating is still intact (to delay absorption until it gets to the intestine) but the open end allows the digestive fluids to bypass part of the coating and get a "head start" on getting at the active contents. My doc came up with that suggestion after seeing too many x-rays of patients with still intact tablets that had almost reached the end of the alimentary canal.

    3. That might be worth trying, thanks.

    4. re:
      undesolved pills

      Your physician is skilled at a lot. Unless extensively trained in X-ray, a lot can be misinterpreted or related-to-the-unrelated.

      A recent example:
      October 2018, dentist one freaked over an X-ray smudge. It could be cancer!, it could spread to your brain!, you could loose your jaw!, we need an emergency root-canal!.

      I hear 'surgery', I think 'second opinion'.

      Three days later, second dentist diagnoses 'sinus infection'. Prednisone for four days, done.

      About those partial-digested pills... I concur. I also suspect the 'matrix' webbed into the carrier material was adequately absorbed, leaving the 'husk' to be excreted.

      My pal Scott runs a porta-san outhouse rental company. He sees similar undesolved pills while pumping. According to industry publications, the pill remnants are the disposable part of the pill.

      I don't know. It's all second-hand information, and inherently suspect.

    5. Second hand boots on the ground info is better than "professional" sources today, which are biased towards treasure bilking.

  2. “a minion suggested pulverizing vitamin pills so the body absorbs them better.”


    I know that someone produced a liquid vitamin that was molecularly bonded with another substance, that allowed for better absorption. But as I recall, it was kind of expensive. What I did to insure maximum absorption, was to take my vitamins right before going to bed, when I would be urinating the least, to allow time to absorb the best. FWIW, I really never noticed any difference, health wise, when taking vitamins and most other substances, so it’s probably better in the long run to just shoot for a more balanced diet.

    1. My best health comes from exercise, so there is that also. If you are growing your own veggies, and give a hoot about soil conditioning, diet IS your nutrients. But if you are buying store veggies, I don't think they have any nutrients to speak of. So I'd be more worried about supplements.

  3. “Going back and re-watching almost anything from the 1990's, you can easily see how the PC fables started ( beginning slow and almost innocently )”


    I recently re-watched a series that I really enjoyed from the 1980’s, a Canadian production by the name of the Campbells, set in the 1830’s. I didn’t really notice it as a younger viewer, but upon re-watching it years later, I noticed that they tried to sneak a fair deal of feminist propaganda into the script. But nothing like what you see today, where you can’t find anything without it.

    The turd burglars were mostly just inserted (No pun intended :D ) as comic relief (Recall the banana in the tail pipe scene in Beverly hills cop, and also “Serge”, who later went on to play Balki ). But we were still a fairly normal society back then, so know one took the anal explorers very seriously.

  5. Greetings and all Hail Lord Bison and minions.

    In Blessed Ecstasy, I read every word without fail or falter...double pinky swear, Large Marge ;)

    Lord Bison, nothing really to note, except I believe you mean "psychic", not "physic mumbo jumbo".
    OTOH, maybe you're saying gravity is just nonesense or acceleration at 32 ft/sec/sec is just witchcraft. Hey, who's to say what's right?

    Yeah, I never really caught fire with Terminator series. The whole Arnold Austrian accent just hung in my craw. Also, the whole time travel backwards, meh!
    Your noting 2029 date was interesting cause after all Harrison Ford (How American a name and guy can you get...right?) was zipping around in 2019 Los Angeles in "Bladerunner". Harrison beat "Ah-nold" to the brass ring by 10 years.
    Yep, "Bladerunner", the bestest sci fi dystopian look at the future. Ever!

    You put forth a lot of taboo myth busting in this essay Jim. Too much for mere mortals to comprehend in one shot I fear.
    You mentioned every trigger word for DHS and NSA algorithms to kick in.
    Let's see.... "Hitler", "Holocaust", "911", "Coke", "Nuclear","NAZI", "Apartheid" and the crowd favorite "Slavery".
    Yep, you're definitely downrange and holding a target over your head.

    Thank God you you didn't mention "Fed Reserve/missing gold", "Dallas 1963" or "Zero point energy" cause if you had, you would've already been droned.

    Well enough for today. Time for lunch...Hey, Jim should I nuke my potatoe or put in oven at 350° for an hour?

    1. Blade Runner-kick ass cyberpunk. Terminator-kick ass PA. I know, you could argue both descriptions, but I'm going by mood more than plot. I'm cheap, but I'll only nuke a potato enough to pre-cook it, then use fire to make it taste good. Straight nuked tators are an affront to its Creator.

    2. You wouldn’t think so, but there’s a significant flavor difference between a microwave potato vs one cooked in the oven. Unfortunately, I can’t justify firing the power hungry oven up for an hour (unless we’re already using the barbecue grill or the oven for something else) when I can do the same thing in the microwave in 5 minutes.

      Summer’s here, and the sun’s shining a lot. I’m almost halfway tempted to get one of those solar ovens.

      Non-related topic, but I noticed in that Battletruck film, that there were a few of those hexayurt buildings in the background of that village. Those seem like they could be the ideal housing solution for many, but you need help when lifting the roof structure onto the base unit. Might just start off with one of those on my Elko land.

    3. I don't think you can go wrong with a home built solar cooker. $20, $40 worth of material, perhaps? Less if salvaged. I sure wouldn't spend $300 on one. I might consider one of these:

      But they are fragile.

      Delete
    4. Remembering past solar oven discussion here, the black hi temp spray paint used on the cobbled together version caused odor and taste problems that did not dissipate for many meals cooked. I would like to hear any reader comments on designs they actually made and used at least once a week for a year. Also, if anyone purchased a ready made oven was it worth it?

    5. If Blade Runner had a flavour it would be two day old unwashed ass. First the title was shite. It should have remained "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" And should not have been made with the faux film noir 1940's detective movie motif. It it had followed the novel more it would have been a true masterpiece. Indy Jones did a so-so acting job as the protagonist. The Dutchman deserved an oscar for the Totenscpräche. Did he get it?

  7. Vitamin C is essential...
    There is reportedly now a caravan of 35,000 Africans, originating from in and around Ebolaville, headed our way towards our southern border.
    http://www.theamericanmirror.com/report-35000-more-africans-on-way-to-us-via-south-america/
    One of the things that makes Ebola so deadly is that it quickly replicates end-stage Scurvy. In Scurvy, the body is gradually depleted of Vitamin C, but there is still SOME left. In Ebola, reportedly ALL the Vitamin C is stripped out, which is why you start bleeding out from "everywhere", compared to more milder symptoms like bleeding gums in Scurvy. The Ebolans are coming, stock up on Vitamin C! (Seriously)
    Peace out
