………….about the BAS bit… dispersing the bombs is done to make less effective any possible enemy attack on the bomb storage bunker. The article is saturated with rote repetitions of bald falsehoods, of course. Dispersal will be duly noted in Kremlin, and moves tension a notch up the “launch perimeter” scale. I think the machine require a very well controlled storage… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plutonium  for example can change phase from ductile to brittle, more or less for no reason…and that phuckzup the plan to squish the pretty ball. I am sure there are all sorts of good reasons for the controlled environment…but these are going to be set aside in favor of preparations for third use, or 4th…we’ll see. Anyway Comrade Putin and the fellas will note implications. I knew a guy I hired for a few days, he’d been a mechanic on B-61 bombs. He was a little crazy, but a good worker. There are no material secrets. Just stuff people don’t bother to read.

Author coruscates > ” While the United States and its allies must manage the risks of nuclear escalation carefully, defeating Putin, restoring Ukrainian sovereignty, and reinforcing the rules-based order must be our priorities.”

Ok, analyze for semantic value. Add facts. The only rational situation in which using a nuke makes sense is when you’re losing. He’s admitted that the US is losing, as it is impossible to do what he claims are the priorities, so he’s saying they’re going to do it.

Oh how very fine are the multitude of examples for lessons in the English Department! In the old days people studied rhetoric, and grammar, even spelling!  The Standards at BAS give the tells… collapse.

BTW, note the claim that the only rational use…implies that the US lost W2. It did, see?

Molecular cracking process takes Time…but it began with Truman. And the proof of lost W2 is there, everywhere, to see.

Best! P

“that amazing rejoinder” ? I lost the track, Brother. No comprendo.

Of Wagner> The once-a-cadet recalls a story about redemption told by the US Marines. In the US Civil War, the story goes, USMC panicked, mutinied, and ran away under fire. Later the same organization expurgated its guilt at battle Belleau Wood in W1. Bald truth, whatever it was, is irrelevant to the story. What is relevant is collective guilt was carried over 5+ decades, and liquidated by the men that didn’t do it. In the example Wagner it, the guilt, will be liquidated by a mixture of both kinds. This collective spirit is just part of the awful way, the Dow, I suppose, of armies. https://archive.ph/7LiNs  The perhaps apocryphal tale goes that the Marines were pinned down in hopeless position and some old old sergent yelled out “something like “Whatamatterwithyouphucks! Yawanna live forever? Charge! (and so they did, so the story). I can still smell the gunoil, see the rifles in their racks – in the armory where they were trying to get me to see the story as a lesson in the good. I was mildly appalled.

Not every soldier will stand up to a machine gun to liquidate the real or imagined guilt of somebody else, or even his own. That’s why officers carry guns. And that what those guys over there are for… “here’s lookin’ at you…” Like Walter said…it’s a League Game…

Malaria> In Time, everybody comes to the River. And once upon a time I knew rivervolk along a very pretty reach of river…out west too. And the older people had been infected when young by malaria…they told stories about it. I believe that the Sacramento – San Joaquin pre-European period was naive with respect to several species of valuable fur-bearing species, and also free from malaria. However… intrepid enterprise soon brought a remedy…and infected fur species were introduced. It was particularly hard on the native tribes and the working class Anglos. The pretty reach is now a riprapped channel – essentially cloaca-like, speaking of Billyboy… The malaria in Florida may be expected to become re-introduced out west. I think it was eradicated only in the late 1940s with the use of oil and DDT and a public health campaign…then later the system of flood control dams…

Cholera, typhoid, rabies… doncha jus luv an encore… I’m thinking of the riparian homeless people that now inhabit in such density with no sanitation, and plenty of dope.

Alex the Elder gave a personal background story from Switzerland. A politically bifurcated family. I can relate… @duran.

Hot day @ Anoxia. Water corn, Rake leaves. Actually too hot even for motorcycle.

Of bigbigphakeholiday 4 July… remembering how much Premier Kissoff loves surprises… That and NPS-Z. Hal shrilly calls of nukesnifferplane moved to FOB… yet up until the metastatic cascade of violence is triggered, it doesn’t have to happen…and I do wonder if some people have not been told that they themselves are in rifle sights, personally in the cross-hairs. Wanna bet? Stumpy gives poor odds.

Yes. And note “debacle” is probably the precise choice of word…breaking of ice in river in Spring. (image from camp ash can…1945, with all the gang…for a time they even had their pistols returned…imagine that!)

I think phase change in offing. After very well argued voir dire with Chef…and certain imaginative undertakings, Poor devil… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_That_Tune    (In longpast Mr P has been asked questions very persuasively by certain agents of State. . . it’s not rocket science. Chef make booboo.)

All of this process, whatever twists and turns and surprises it presents, seems to me a natural thing, a  Gleichschaltung prerequisite to serious combat war. Note the German nazis hijacked this term from engineering, properly “alignments” and/or “coordination” of electrical (or socially, people and institutions) for a single purpose. I do wonder that our traitor has served a function essential to the process, and speculate that had verrater not volunteered himself, it would have been far worse…and even think that then absent verrater, it would have become necessary to create one. Fate may have blessed us all.

Many Thanks for video… Brother Ray and the fellas! Los Tres Amigos!

I keep thinking of film “The Producers”… It’s Spring time for….

That’s a highly appropriate picture of the Luk. Good!

Well, after more reading and consideration, especially in light of things said by Mr “b” @ MoA, it seems the Der Chef definitely went a little funny in the head…recalling Great President Merton Muffley in dialogue with Primer Kizzoff. Like Burroughs said, can’t beat the mark inside. Evidently a game of let rabbit run, and it worked.

Der AfD and the nazis dance toward the good ol’ times. https://archive.ph/PPXgw

From the German text>

“Not only the district council election of Sonneberg, but also the soaring poll numbers of the AfD on the Sunday question are causing panic among the old parties. In this context, Interior Minister Faeser is obviously planning an AfD ban procedure and has indirectly asked Haldenwang to give her a template for this.

In the Sunday question, the AfD achieved poll results at a record high and the first AfD district council was elected in Sonneberg. There is panic among the old parties. But instead of thinking about a change of strategy in dealing with a democratically elected party, one resorts to those concepts that have already proved ineffective, and is firmly determined to intensify them even more.
[this is] Contempt for democracy against the will of the voters.”

ending> “Schreiben dieses Artikels durch den Kopf ging, ich aber niemals behaupten würde: Parteien verbieten ist sowas von 1933. Und anscheinend typisch sozialistisch – ob national oder international ist dann nebensächlich“” Yes, rather like the Hitler period… (I wouldn’t have said “socialist”, but the author is constrained in his choices by German law against free speech, or whatever…)

Ok…so? Note that outlawing a party is not an event, but a nearly endless process, and one with several factors…and the process? Well, “lawfare” gives away to other forms, aheem. One unintended consequence will be more exodus to points East. Another expected manifestation will be Gladio 2.x and a charming antigladio 2.x prime. Bluntly. domestic violence. Noting that generally most violence traces to States, not citizen clubs. After all, the exclusive right to violence is said to define the Nth State, and the State has copsandarmiesandguns.

In the end Germany makes good treaty with Russia. The Office for the Protection of the Constitution can’t change the drang nach Rus…they can only screw it up for a while.

I get the idea, reading over the recent days, that in Kremlin big decision is underway. Their logic being based on the idea, the (final?)  determination, that Russia cannot abide the present bellicose and obdurate, and dangerous character of the US State’s behaviors and plans. Thus “target” lies not so much in Europe. The Strategic Goal may be undergoing re-evaluation, as well as, obviously, the means by which this Goal might be best achieved. “Poseidon” machine being on the buffet, as well as economic and other less direct and more subtle means.

Let us ask, did the treasonplot, taken in its totality, amount to an attack on the Russian State? Did the plot threaten the existence of the Russian State? If it’s seen that way, would that not dictate a Policy Change? The unintended consequence and the indirect strategy are a pair. “West HQ” just drew the rifle sights upon themselves, I imagine. How stupid.

I’ll lay a bet that  nazibaseHQ/West  has become the prime target as a result of the treason plot. That we shall soon see a correction of Strategy in accord with modified goal. I have no idea as to how this new Strategy will appear. Well, yeah, I do… just don’t want to say. It can go well, or not well. An indirect strategy crafted to induce a symmetrical treason plot, with suitable modifications and in concert with internal destabilization (already underway) might be a general path.

Putin once said that as a young fella in KGB “he believed” in the Soviet ideological “truths”, the “soviet church” if you will. I often think about that.

Sudhi, the idea arises that the subtleties of human genetics tends to create such boy-men fighters as a response, or possibly to create, conflict…the idea being that proportionality and agency exist…that these fighters are rare in quiet times of prosperity and stability, and far less rare when they are needed. And do Rulers also add to this by long-term policies… Rulers always exploit the natural way, if they stay in power very long. And yes, the PMC or even a well crafted draft policy can easily channel fighters, and all the rest, into better outcomes. I am in favor of universal service for young men of all classes. A 100% draft. Thus the experienced officer-instructors easily identify the several types – and everybody gets a good sweaty 18 months of exercise and a sort of communist class leveling. BTW the safety training at the shooting range would be a fine place to observe the boys, with an eye to which should not be trusted…aheeem. And which were hopeless. Which are ordinary, which are exceptionally bright, and so forth. Of course in a nazi hegemon, it might be better if the draft was postponed until peace arises. I’m in theoretical mode here.

We have Minister Shoigu and Minister Miera making plans…and a robust Kennedy, and missiles too. What wondrous rhymes hath this our time. (I mentioned this one-time claim before. The English edition vaporized, but not the Russian edition…it remains at Pravda.) 2012> Pravda, excerpt (machine trans) “With the full consent of the Cuban leadership, on May 11 of this year, our country not only resumed the operation of the radio-electronic center in Lourdes, but also deployed the latest mobile nuclear strategic missile systems “Oak”on the island. They didn’t want to do it in a good way, let them now slurp cabbage soup with bast shoes,” Putin said.”

Kind of a ramble….

We are in close agreement, generally, and about AI, very close agreement, I think. Next time Norbert Wiener stops at the Dew Drop Inn we shall have to discuss the natural consequences of cybernetic creations. Imagining the intelligence of, say, a simple machine like a lever in concert with “Gork”…there the machine pushes Mr Gork to bias toward improvements in his intelligence.  He may begin to discover trigonometry, in the fullness of Time… But at the other end of the spectrum? Universal stupidity? Ah suspicion that the cybernetic process might be represented as bell-shaped – with an ideal bracketed by idiots at each end. At the ends, Mr Gork cannot even count his own toes. In the center region? Quantum physics and mysteries of cryptographic mathematics, and radio and the applied crafts and science. Gee whiz, it’d be jus’ great if Brother Ted Kaczynski could engage with Brother Norbert…eh? Hey! There’s Steve Allen… If permitted to kibitz at the bar, I’d propose that the matter might be related to the causations underlying  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yerkes%E2%80%93Dodson_law

I never did like the time and motion fellas…the Charley Taylor types. Recalling the guy I knew who worked on the line putting seats in Kaiser cars … They gave him 48 seconds to put in 12 bolts, he said… so he put in four, and threw the rest under the carpet. So much for the time and motion finks…

To survive, genuine civilizations are going to have to bring the AI (and the steam engine) to heel. Ted had some coruscations.

We’ve been blessed by a bounty of blueberries, and it’s great fun to watch the jays eye their berry, fly to pick it, and flutter back to peck out the juicybestbit, all the while keeping a weather eye on the cat…and us. Always leave gleaning for the poor, and the critters. I have myself heard Kansas farmers so speak. Charity as Law. Where it belongs.

We have a few wonderful roads not far from Anoxia…and I chanced to blunder into a gaggle of fellas riding their  old time Bonneville TT160 bikes, they were headed over the hills to the sea on bikes built in the early 1960’s. Very nice fellas, and very pretty bikes…simple, elegant, frugal, and fast enough for any fool. Generally these are 50 horsepower bikes. Light, and nimble. Geewhiz… https://www.facebook.com/reel/912229326520960  (a practical example illustrating the importance of situational awareness)  I think there’s still a bit of snow at the pass… long ride. no gas. no beer. Incentives can be important!

‘C’use ma humor…  it was a pleasure to see the old bikes.
