Sensor Sweep: Lord Dunsany, Red Sonja Movie, Michael Moorcock

Weird Tales (M Porcius): The May 1941 issue of Weird Tales is like a monument to the genius of Hannes Bok, with a Bok cover and an interior chockablock with Bok illustrations of horrible monsters and alluring ladies.  So this issue of D. McIlwraith’s magazine is already getting the MPorcius Seal of Approval even before I […]

California farmers left high & dry as PG&E (with Gov. Newsom's approval) CUTS OFF WATER to generational farms & ranches, in order to "protect salmon."

“This happened two months before harvest,” "We’re looking at having to go out of business,” says cattle rancher Bernie Eckels.

Newsom also authorized the draining of Lake Pillsbury reservoir, causing wells to run dry, and depleting the water used for FIREFIGHTING — just like before the Palisades Fire!

“When they cut the river flow, they totally reneged on our water rights,” he says. “There are 65 appropriative water rights from the powerhouse discharge to Lake Mendocino. PG&E’s arbitrary cut wiped them out.”

“Without water to irrigate our fields and recharge our groundwater, we’ll lose our ability to produce hay and our best grazing ground,” he says. “We’ll lose the ability to provide great local beef and lamb to our community.”

And that, my friends, is precisely the point.

Canada is Killing Itself

The country gave its citizens the right to die. Doctors are struggling to keep up with demand.

The euthanasia conference was held at a Sheraton. Some 300 Canadian professionals, most of them clinicians, had arrived for the annual event. There were lunch buffets and complimentary tote bags; attendees could look forward to a Friday-night social outing, with a DJ, at an event space above Par-Tee Putt in downtown Vancouver. “The most important thing,” one doctor told me, “is the networking.”

Which is to say that it might have been any other convention in Canada. Over the past decade, practitioners of euthanasia have become as familiar as orthodontists or plastic surgeons are with the mundane rituals of lanyards and drink tickets and It’s been so long s outside the ballroom of a four-star hotel. The difference is that, 10 years ago, what many of the attendees here do for work would have been considered homicide.

"Her claims have been cited in Congressional hearings as evidence of a Chinese lab leak and she reportedly visited the White House, ostensibly to brief Trump administration officials.

"Yet despite her prominence, no interviewer has asked her the most obvious questions:

"Why did she conceal her American marriage?

"Why hasn’t she disclosed her professional ties to Poon and Peiris?

"Why did she appear at a symposium alongside Peter Daszak and Ralph Baric?

"Why did she patent a vaccine with the same people whom she accused of complicity in the lab leak cover up?

"At the same time, none of the media outlets that have criticized her as a political tool of Steve Bannon and Guo have investigated her background, thus covering up the real scandal of Li Meng-Yan."

"The establishment only bestows this level of extraordinary attention (and therefore power) on narratives and people that it controls, as there is no benefit to them in heavily promoting an organic narrative that they don't control, as they don't know how it will develop or whether these developments will be in the interests of the agenda they wish to promote. Most likely, they won't."

"This meticulously researched post reveals how Einstein’s 1921 American tour, ostensibly a Zionist fundraising mission, transformed him into a cultural icon through a perfect storm of factors: a possible Edward Bernays publicity campaign, a fortunate misunderstanding where crowds gathering for Weizmann were assumed to be Einstein fans, tensions between assimilated and radical American Jews that led establishment media to promote Einstein while downplaying the Zionist cause, and Einstein’s natural charisma with reporters. The visit raised $750,000 for Hebrew University while cementing Einstein’s celebrity status, contributing to a broader 1920s cultural shift where science replaced religion as the ultimate authority: creating the paradox of scientific truth being used to argue that no absolute truth exists, with Einstein embodying this contradiction as a figure whose fame transcended his actual scientific contributions and who would later dismiss critics as antisemitic while holding views that might today be considered antisemitic himself."

A video from the Ukranian 68th Brigade shows life on the front line.

This is how rotation takes place on the battlefield; evacuation of the wounded and delivery of food and ammunition happen in a similar manner.

Russian Mavics are constantly patrolling the sky, and FPV drones attack any equipment in sight day and night. In this case, the soldiers were saved by the armored vehicle’s protection.
