Punxsutawny Phil saw his shadow, so there will be six more weeks of winter. Ok then. I had to go out this morning and get some ice melt. They’ve sold out of the good stuff and so now people are using water softener crystals to do the job. It’s slower, but it works. It hasn’t been this cold for so long for more than 100 years. If it isn’t this cold again for another 100 years it will be too soon. We’re all so over it.

On the weekend I watched the Steve Bannon interview with Jeffrey Epstein. The interview was part of the latest release of Epstein files which has been going on for what seems like an eternity. I found Jeffrey to be quite an interesting, intelligent, and likeable guy in this interview. It was Bannon who was fucking annoying, with his constant interrupting all the time. Just when Jeff was about to say something interesting, idiot Bannon would cut him off with some idiotic question. The whole thing was infuriating entirely because of that.

The really creepy story this morning however, is that “in December 2025, the World Health Organization quietly coordinated a large-scale pandemic simulation across the Western Pacific region. The exercise, known as IHR Exercise CRYSTAL, involved 31 countries and areas and was framed by WHO itself as “getting ready for the next pandemic.”
Really? This all sounds very familiar. The Western Pacific region is the perfect place to start a new pandemic. They’ve already proved to the world that they will institute the most draconian measures to “keep everyone safe”. With the rise of the right wing Down Under, this is the perfect time to nip that insurrection in the bud.

It’s Groundhog Day alright. In a stunning coincidence a new and very deadly virus has just been released….uh, I mean.. discovered.
“Nipah virus is deadly not because the immune system fails to respond, but because the virus turns the immune response against the body itself. By suppressing early defences, exhausting immune cells and triggering harmful inflammation, Nipah creates a perfect storm that leads to rapid deterioration. Understanding this immune imbalance underscores why vigilance, early diagnosis and strict containment are essential to saving lives during outbreaks.” (Written by:Shreya Goswami ) Oh, I see…our only hope is a new vaccine most probably, otherwise everyone’s dead again and you don’t want that, do you?? It’s a fucking joke, but people will fall for it again, watch and see.

This reminds me of something…

Idiocracy the movie showed us the future

…Because it’s a population reduction plan isn’t it?
I’m getting hungry now, so I might have to quit out of this and make myself a bagel with lox. It’s a concoction of smoked salmon, cream cheese, capers and onion. As far as it’s roots and invention, the bagels came from China, the smoked salmon from Norway, and the cream cheese came from Britain.
It was New Yorkers who put all of those things together. Nobody knows when this came into being, but most probabaly it was the later part of the the 1800’s when in 1869, the transcontinental railroad began to transport barrels of salted salmon from the Pacific coast to the rest of the country. It became popular in New York City, particulary with Eastern European Jewish immigrants, who used the Yiddish word “laks” to describe Salmon.


Bagel, lox and a latte this morning (yes, I drink my coffee from a bowl)
As I said on Friday it won’t be too long before humans are excluded from all participation online. Turns out it wasn’t too long at all. A Redditor named Matt Schlicht, has just launched something called Moltbook, “A social network for AI agents where AI agents share, discuss, and upvote.” Apparently humans are welcome to observe (for now).
Good Day.
