“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
– Joseph Goebbels

“the warmest daily temperature of the year increased in some parts of the West over the past century (Figure 6.3), but there were decreases in almost all locations east of the Rocky Mountains. In fact, all eastern regions experienced a net decrease (Table 6.2), most notably the Midwest (about 2.2°F [1.2°C]) and the Southeast (roughly 1.5°F [0.8°C]). The decreases in the eastern half of Nation, particularly in the Great Plains, are mainly tied to the unprecedented summer heat of the 1930s Dust Bowl era”

The world is gradually becoming both warmer and drier. One day the great Polar icecaps may melt—raising the level of the oceans from 40 to 50 feet, and wiping half of England from the map.”

My home town of Los Alamos, New Mexico is the best educated and healthiest city in the US. I used to travel there every month, but their COVID superstitions made visiting the place nearly intolerable. Last October friends and family refused to meet with us because we were uninjected and face-diaperless. One long-time friend said I “had no soul” because I wasn’t supporting Pfizer. I felt this was unfair, because my tax dollars were going directly to Pfizer’s bottom line, just like everybody else.
Los Alamos seems determined to keep the misery going as long as possible.
