Best Case: this nonsense covers for the collapse of the Petro-Dollar empire (and this is still going to be quite bad and WA DC has already lost control)
Worst Case: this is something so awful that you can justify gaslighting hundreds of millions, if not billions, for 2-3 years … Famine fits … but other things fit as well.
As of now: 95% sure famine is baked into the cake, 100% sure the dollar collapse is inevitable, the only question is: is it worse?
From November 2019: “… maybe it will be some kind of monkey flu …” (1:14 minutes in)
Justin and I both need to get regular jobs, soon. We were able to be committed to this project for about 4 months, but reality has set in.
Does this mean the project is over? – NO … not by a long shot. Is does mean that our velocity is reduced so we’re not going to be able to do as much, as fast, as we hoped we would.
Justin’s job takes him to the woods for 8 days at a time, with 6 days off. It would be unrealistic for him to expect more than 4-5 project days per month, given that he has other personal and life responsibilities.
And once I get a job? – well … I’m 52 years old … and even if I were 20 years younger, the current “business environment” favors crony/statist enterprises and eschews entrepreneurs like Justin and myself. Just reality. And I’m not sure how much longer this “reality” will last.
We don’t have the resources to do as much testing as I would like, so it slows down development. If we had more money? – we could dedicate a 24/7 listening station AND experiment with max bandwidth transmission schemes. But, with this kind of testing you always run the risk of damaging a radio – and we can’t really afford this right now. It’s a mess: because we are trying to push and develop products, that are prototype, and with little to no budget for any of this.
The HAM world is as bad as the MASONS or Illuminati …
GIGANTIC DONATION … GORILLIONS!
I can move to my island near the Florida Keys …
I can start dating Rizal, my ambiguously Latin and hot lover …
We have cookie jars, with cocaine …
We have our own dialysis machines … for rough nights.
We can sail our star-light special to Bimini, and feed on cleevus-clams and gentle noggle-fish.
Our mornings are filled with chasing poor people, through the jungle, a human hunt …
Then we bathe in the blood of these peasants, who come for the “gold” we promise … but instead face our WRATH.
At lunch time, we enjoy tossing kittens into the shark lagoon …
When the sun goes down, we sky dive naked into a large pool filled with champagne and MDMA …
We give each other venom injections, rattlers, cobras, bushmaster …. and tarantula.

Prepping is a good thing to do – I tell my listeners to do what they can during almost all podcasts since 2019 … (before the monkey herpes)
But here’s the deal:
If you think you can stockpile ENOUGH FOOD or ENOUGH AMMO or ENOUGH GOLD for what is coming?
Then you are worse than NOT logistically prepared: food, water, training.
You are mentally UNPREPARED for what is coming … and no amount of ammo or MREs will help with that.
At Bama YACHT CLUB, we recommend:
1. move somewhere that is geographically isolated and is at least 50 miles from a major interstate (I-5, I-80, etc)
2. move somewhere that is at least 50 miles from a US military base (not easy)
3. learn how to purify water, and make sure there is some regular water available, where you are
4. learn to grow potatoes, carrots, onions, and some herbs (containing vitamins), and raise chickens
5. stockpile BOOKS ... not eBooks or PDFs ... but actual printed materials
6. learn to use a bow and arrow or crossbow
7. have and learn to use a hunting rifle
8. have at least one rapid fire carbine and ammo
9. buy a HAM radio and learn to use it ... DO NOT BECOME A HAM ... that means registering your address: also called stupid
The rest is up to you ... your pain points ...
But at BAMA YACHT CLUB, we've been telling people this since late 2019.

Jingus meat will be on sale, soon … at spronctos.
I discovered a new kind of shame and self-loathing … I call it “brodayme”.
You will be able to start splitting covid payouts, with your doctor … seriously: the system is a breeding ground for fraud, so why not.
There will be a NEW “CRISPY CHICKEN SANDWICH” war … like CCSW2 … or maybe we’re on 3 now with this also … ? … It will be amazing, and the sandwiches will contain mostly chicken.
Aliens will arrive by July. Their starships will be powered by love and trignum-grease. The alien-queen will be revealed to be a busty wench, carrying steins of beer … just for me. This is how I imagine my stroke or other cadio/cerebral event.
I have this new character on Zero Hedge that I love until ZH bans/blocks/deletes this one:
BAMA YACHT CLUB …
BAMAYC: “Buy as much as you can …”
Almost like coupon’ing … and shit …
Random Zero Hedge context ads … wow … hookers.
Cult formation, propaganda, and military psychological warfare …
For starters: humans mind-fucking others goes back a long ways … perhaps to even pre-human times … perhaps consciousness itself has the temptation of psychological manipulation baked in … think “native peoples scaring buffalo into cliffs and drop offs”.
BTW: these concepts can be used in sovietology or the breaking down of propaganda into things you could say “might be true” and for the discovery of outright contradictions. Not a perfect science.
Key propaganda theory roles:
The Sheep Dog: allows people to wander a little bit astray from the region of the Overton Window … but not far from it. Alex Jones is a great example, I fear Dane Wigington may be another.
The Fool: Greta, Biden, Al Gore – the fool’s principle role is to take any real and serious issue and make it look stupid and corrupt.
The Expert: Paul Krugman, Powell, Obama – they assure you they know, understand, and can provide guidance you must not question:
The Leader: Reagan, Obama, Hitler, Stalin – is often connected to a cargo-cult or a “cult of goods and values” that the Leader promises, as long as you follow.
The Enemy or Villain: Russia or Putin, China, Japan, Germany, Vietnam … I can keep going.
The Savior: think Elon Musk, Anthony Fauci (to some), Obama, Steve Jobs … (this can also be seen as a quasi-shamanic role per CG Jung’s view of the “savior” or “leader” … Joseph Cambell’s work with comparative mythology points in the same direction.
Key propaganda narratives:
The Mistake: think pandemic, 9/11
The Unforeseen: think 9/11 or the fall of the Berlin Wall or the Housing Crisis
The Great Tragedy: think 9/11
The “Stab in the Back”: Hitler and the Jews
The Achievement: Apollo, Manifest Destiny, Pyramids, etc … sometimes these “achievements” are based on real things … sometimes they are 100% bullshit.
Key Tools:
Temporal and Spatial Disorientation: impacting people’s ability to know WHERE they are and WHAT time it is … CIA/NAZIs pioneered this with isolation chambers and total sensory deprivation. But less totalistic versions involve placing a person, in the middle of nowhere, with limited access to time keeping systems.
Cognitive disordering: think reversals of number systems, standard order of interpretation, changing reading from “top to bottom” to “bottom to top” for key documents … etc.
Jargon: the use of specialized terminology to widen insider/outsider distinctions.
Divide and Conquer: separate the population into arbitrary groups, reward some, punish others, create tension and conflict.
Gaslighting: reality manipulation via false information, projection, and victim blaming. The key is to substitute an alternate reality to the one provided by logic, commonsense and what can actually be proven.
EGO PUMPING: typically used in insider/outsider group dynamics. Typically the “Savior” or the “Leader” will use neuro-linguistic programming and other less precise techniques to build up the sense of worth in an individual, but in this context, a whole group.
Drifting Principles: a “leader” sets some guideline … like let’s say Obama says “I never did drugs” or “drugs are bad”, and then you find out he did and probably does … while at the same time sicking Treasury agents on the medical cannabis places … these moving, drifting, adjustable principles create confusion.
Band Wagon: “everyone is doing it”
Peer Pressure: “why can’t you be like us”
Group Punishment for Individual Acts: basically the only real function of voting in a “democracy” like ours. Whether it’s abortion, gun control, free speech, or the abolition of the IRS, topics are used as “blame” for failure … and then those sub-groups are labeled and abused.
Argument from authority: the only real value of PhD.
Group burden: we’re all in this together … think about that wretched Bon Jovi song/video from the Spring of 2020 … “Do what ya gotta do …” pretty much says it all.
Ad hominem: this is often used with “appeal to authority” arguments, and the conclusion is “you must be stupid”. And this is one all humans kind of do … pretty much, all the time to each other … even Dan. When coupled with appeal to authority, it can have greater psychic weight and penetration.
Cult of the Personality: think Walt Disney, Werner Von Braun, Hitler, Stalin, Elon Musk, Steve Jobs
Hijacking: like how cults, propaganda systems and PSYOPs will take an ingrained psycho-cultural artifact, like a religious concept, and re-purpose it the needs of the propaganda/cult/psyop.
These “roles and narratives” apply to grifting or conning, to military psychological warfare and cult recruitment/formation.

Musings concerning the future from December 2015 …
I need to be nicer and shit … and talk about more mainstream bullshit … so my podcast does better:
Talk up CRYPTO!
Talk up investing … like in TESLA or AMAZON or TWITTER!
Talk about eating shellfish right from the ocean …
Talk about how lovely the skies are, and how they are so completely, totally, real … ya know man?
Talk about how healthy the trees and plants look … really healthy … vibrant.
Talk about Summertime and daffodils and parrot oils and musks …
Christmas is right around the corner … that’s nice.
I might buy a house, then sell it, use that money and more loans to buy more homes, sell those … buy more homes … and then complain about homeless people … because it’s so cozy.
Talk about kale … “All About Kale” hour …
Talk about that colonoscopy or anal probe I got … and how it’s nice to see what’s down there.
Talk about the RONA, and how it almost destroyed everything, but then it didn’t … and how nice it was that Brownian motion ceased to be a thing during the pandemic, hence the non-random distribution of a random phenomena … and those coffee filters.
Talk about brick oven pizzas … amirite?
My electric vehicle? – that’s good …
Talk about how bad Putin is … and how great the US military is … at stuff.
Lots of nice things to talk about …
I can’t wait for nuclear war … it will be more exciting than the BATTLE OF THE NETWORK STARS … just really great.
Talk about the coming age of TOOVLOZ, when elf type mistress whores sell their “wares” near the old abandoned fireworks factory, as kief-squirrels feed on the decaying corpses of old Insane Clown Posse turbit jergs … good times.
Talk about that weird fog that settles upon the grounds at night … weird and cold and burns your lungs … it’s not like it’s a thing, right? … it’s not there, but it is … you see the etch-a-sketch happening above you, but your glowing rectangle tells you to ignore the perception and adhere to the general obedience.
Talk about the kettle angels and the various new parasites crawling into people’s ears at night … they lay eggs in your occipital lobe, causing neural scarring, brain damage, gleeptus and fronctalburingalitus … really bad “hershey squirts” and all human faces are replaced with David Hasselhoff’s face.
Quivering mangrove spiders, following a hearty meal of peasant, concern themselves with the great space bridge to Venus. As the night falls, Heclus, the warrior, wearing nothing but a leather codpiece, swaggers his way to cleansing pool. There he sees Lustra, the bustress, the one of g-strings, rubbing ancient oils upon her melons … this is nice.
Just, really nice stuff … to feel good about being great … and having warm feelings about really swell shit …
If the REAL rate of inflation is 7%? (conservatively)
And the FED FUNDS RATE after 50 bps is 1%?
Then the real cost of FED FUNDS is -6% …
If the prime rate is currently 3.5%? – then the real prime rate is -3.5% (nice money if you can get it at any volume)
(yes Virginia)
(this is a problem)
To have ANYTHING RESEMBLING NORMALIZATION … you would need a FED FUNDS RATE at above 10% … (and that’s with today’s inflation numbers, not tomorrow’s)
QT, at a medium pace …
Protein Plaza …
“Brown”, “purple”, “red” … “green”
Weekly specials …
Deposit a corpse, get some “taco meat” …
Just set up a printing press …
But crypto nerds have the same view … bring up “3D printing CPUs” or “alt networks” … and before you continue they’ll say “but first we have to have the crypto” …
NO … first we need to take back control of our technology …

The BAT or the BAD WORD: a thought experiment from 2019.
Don’t get suckered too soon by the “Musk Takeover” – one of the things I said in early 2020 was that WHEN it seemed hopeless for the elite to maintain control, they would abandon ship … like prison guards leaving the prison, and leaving it unlocked.
it is an oversimplification to say we live under a “censorship regime”. We do, but it’s worse.
It’s worse to know that our government uses psychological warfare against its own people.
It’s worse to know that the ocean of lies we are immersed in seems impossibly absurd by its “weight”.
It’s worse to know that people could break free by rejecting the WHOLE PARADIGM … at this point: computerization AND networking is infected and created to be owned/controlled by the deep state. So you have to break out.
In 2019, I told my listeners a set of things. I got many details wrong, but the scale and impact, in my opinion, was dead on. I called it the Great Discontinuity (November 2019), but I don’t claim or care if I’m the only person to coin the term, I will take some credit for meditation, thinking, researching on this topic since 2016 … when I published an essay based on a lunchtime conversation, where 3 software engineers were making predictions … about the future. I called it: The Odds of Survival
What I’m about to describe is based partially on my my own conclusions, and partially on the observations and conclusions of others. I knew, from the beginning, it (the rona) looked fishy, but I didn’t fully understand the purpose.
I also believe, for many reasons, a worldwide famine is inevitable, it’s just a question of how bad. Once a famine hits, tptb ability to control anything will break down.
Let me revisit what I’ve said, consistently, since March of 2020:
the “Rona” is not a pandemic, and it looked like a military psychological warfare operation. It included a kind of “halftime show” called “race war” – and I have video documentation of this in Seattle that clearly shows the truth of CHOP CHAZ … and BLM … and Antifa … 100% govt. owned psyops … movable improv artists scaring people to death. This, plus the vaccine-trauma-drama, did a great deal to keep people in a consistent (statistically speaking) state. And the “reset”? – that’s so middle management sociopaths don’t abandon ship too soon … gotta mind fuck them too … maybe especially them.
The “goal state” of these PSYOPs, in my opinion, was almost EXACTLY LIKE the plot of the Truman Show … just done on a global scale: don’t leave your home, don’t talk to people, don’t celebrate (unless you’re a dancing nurse), don’t travel much … don’t spend too much time at the grocery store … small business destroyed, life becoming house arrest on a national, if not global, scale. Keeps lots of people off the roads.
I also told you that these psyops were “planned responses” to a scenario they expected. I call it a “fuzzy event” because of the on-again, off-again “locked down” and “opened up” kabuki dance … Simon Says crap … Whatever “event” TPTB fear is near? – they do not control the schedule.
I generally believe, but it is simply a not provable axiom, that the “bigger the lie”, the more likely that “what” it’s hiding is bad … really bad … in some relation to the lie.
When I went back to Seattle (2017), and this is anecdotal, I was shocked with how quiet the forests were, how trashed the environment looked, and how nobody seemed to understand that this would impact their lives, soon. The summer of 2018 I could barely breathe walking home from the bus station – yes I’m old, a little overweight, but July/August/September 2018 were, in so many ways, apocalyptic … the scenery, background, narrative, fit an actual catastrophe, and most just didn’t care … “Trump Psyop” was nearing its crescendo (and “Q” … what a mind screw)
I do NOT believe much of anything the government says … if they say “it will take 100 years”? – then it will either never happen, or is ALREADY HAPPENING. So I began looking at punctuated equilibrium and runaway climate change and the issues of positive feedbacks.
There are MANY warming feedbacks … for thousands of years, the arctic was the Earth’s freezer/air-conditioner … it enabled a circulatory system for heat exchange, the great oceanic rivers, like the Gulf Stream, that are the arteries of this great air conditioner. But, it looks like the sub-arctic is in permafrost collapse (positive feedback with methane involved) and it looks like sub-sea blowouts of methane, in the arctic, are happening. I they have spread lies about the recent sources of methane – they do not want to address the trillions of tons of frozen methane AND organic materials converting methane/CO2 happening across the arctic circle. This could be a giant lie, but they chose their lie: covid/race war/trump-biden-trauma-drama … these were the Queen, King and Knight … dark ones …
Some believe there is enough methane that is in the atmosphere, currently frozen, and being converted from permafrost, not to mention nitrous oxide (1,000 times more powerful a greenhouse gas than CO2 … btw: methane over 10 years is 100 times worse than CO2, and thats HOW it cooks you. Yes, methane breaks down … but it takes decades to remove what can, and may, be released. Simply put: this is way more plausible a “climate emergency” than any of the BS the government has fed us.
They may have known about this, with a window of certainty, 50+ years ago. It’s possible the first powerful computers were put to work modeling this question: is there a leftover “transaction”, from the last ice age, in the arctic? – is it big enough to rock the equilibrium of life on Earth, and potentially leading to extinction. It explains a LOT of the crooked shit since JFK – better than aliens and commies, because these are psyops too (going back to the first days of the FBI).
The methane event and “peak oil” (which I won’t discuss much), are not mutually exclusive in this scenario … it’s almost a race between two demons … one or both could kills us, or take many of us out.
If they had a “window” then they would have to pull the trigger when the model says “window has begun” – 9/11 really seems like that.
The “sky painting” could be geoengineering, could be something else – but I think you’d be foolish to deny that it is happening. If the government says it’s “researching something it might do one day”? – chances are they will never do it OR they are DOING IT RIGHT NOW.
Their model probably updated them on a “new window” after taking data measurements – a REAL benefit of 9/11 was the shutting down of airline traffic, and slowing down of US economic activity for a week or two … This led to particulate matter falling out of the sky, and the government scientists (as said) could create a true baseline … with this new baseline and a few years of new data, factoring in geoengineering, they could revise the window – and the new window of probability began in 2020.
I think we are in their end game – and that end game might involve a horror that Carl Sagan once described so eloquently: “Nuclear Winter”. Nuclear Winter is a horror story, for any rational person: but if you are some fool that thinks they “run the world”, this is a last ditch attempt to arrest runaway climate change that could possibly SKIP hothouse Earth on its way to Venus Syndrome … and you can look into that horror on your own. “Hothouse Earth” would be like what I’ve called “Florida Man world” … and “Florida Man World” is where I hope we end up – but I think that’s really hopeful. Keep in mind – pretty much all of our boiling water nuclear reactors are built at sea level, and many, if not all, would have a catastrophic event if either a) they ran out of a source of cool water, via temperature, via drought or b) the water level becomes so high that the reactor complex is flooded out. Which means some kind of wall, at least 300 feet tall, needs to be built around all of them … 300 feet will account for worst case tsunami sized waves …
So yes, I’ve discussed all of the above in various forms. I’ve tried to tune out Dane Wigington, because I wasn’t really sure how his strategy could work. That doesn’t mean he’s not genuine, it just means he might have chosen a bad strategy. But I’ve kept up on many sources, from a “Sovietological” perspective, and I’ve seen the indication, lately, of what I’d call “cover your ass” behavior from various journalistic outlets, that 5 years ago would have said “runaway methane” is crazy and nothing to worry about … both can’t be true.
I think the “new window” of 2019-2020 was sort of fuzzy, and they needed a super drama PSYOP – something that would astound. You can’t really do a real pandemic without harming your (government’s) ability to control what is going on. A real pandemic would have actually led directly to collapse – instead, they created a pseudo reality, filled it with fake numbers and hospital mistakes, and scared our neighbors, in a cultish way, to death.
This could never last more than a few years, ergo: the window is likely less than 5 years. This also means the crucible of this event is near – and it’s either a) “Hot House Earth” (bad) or b) “Venus Syndrome” (basically the end of everything)
I’m a Christian, but not a prophet. There is a lot of prophecy concerning “boiling seas” and “fire”. All of the above would be the result of a coastal shelf release event, lasting months, dumping trillions of tons of methane into the atmosphere … the seas would boil.
A forest fire with an upgrade is a “fire storm” – they happen, but are generally rare … except for the last decade or so. If the wrong fire storm followed a fuel trail to the wrong city? – like say, San Francisco? or Seattle? or Portland? … this could be very catastrophic. You would need a fire-safe room, with its own air, and shielding, because temperatures will get quite high. At a certain point? – the fuel air mixtures can turn almost ANYTHING into fuel … that is a firestorm … it creates its own winds.
I need to state this again: I am not a prophet, even if you agreed with everything here, so far, you can still say “but that doesn’t imply worldwide nuclear war”. As a Christian with some understanding of prophecy, this, plus the methane event, would be a good match.
I think the Ukraine thing has gotten stupid beyond belief – this makes me wonder, what was or is the point? I did not believe Putin would be dumb enough to do this, but perhaps he had no choice – perhaps his generals said “do something or be replaced”, imaging a native Russian speaker. The Ukraine thing would be a perfect spark for WW3 in the worst case, and if it were for the purpose of generating a nuclear winter? – then likely all sides are expected to “launch it all” … every bit … make it as close to an asteroid hit as possible.
So then what? – if you live in any city you will likely be hit with SEVERAL nukes, and more than one nuke strike. To accomplish what they need to accomplish, with the nuclear weapons they have, they would need to use them all … and perhaps try to trigger one or more caldera volcanoes with them as well, this would also lead to a rapid cooling event, in theory.
The problem with the “nuclear winter” scenario, is that it is also possible that this nuclear war triggers a more rapid release of methane, and runaway methane still beats nuclear winter to the finish line.
I don’t want to scare you, and I’m not really scared. I have this bittersweet connection to everything earthly. I say to myself, “I might miss this” … I remind myself, “Dan, you have to learn to let go”. I talk about these “dogs” that I live with, in my podcast. I discuss how therapeutic they’ve been. But recently I’ve had these horrible thoughts about dogs, and even cats, in a scenario where human life went sideways in a global famine. It’s a morbid fear, and it may seem irrational to some – I’ll own my own fear.
Btw: fear isn’t categorically “good” or “bad”: it’s really two things …
How you use it.
How you avoid fake versions of it. (psyop prevention)
I think there might be reason to be concerned that IF we find ourselves in the “longest hottest summer ever”, “they” might see this as a last resort action and they needed to act.
I also want to make this clear: I don’t think it’s the “end of the world”, but people do and will die. Perhaps a lot of people will die, and it won’t be imaginary, like the “rona”. There is always a chance a person could hold on, using technology, for long enough to repopulate the Earth – yes there will be wastelands, and mutants, perhaps even really smart apes.
But who are the people that can afford these bunkers, these hideouts?
I know it’s a club, I’m not a member, not sure I care, except for the dogs.
Here’s another clarification: if the worst case of runaway methane feedbacks occurs, I believe there are, after much tumult, the following possible future equilibrium states.
Hot House Earth or what I call Florida Man World: move if you live below 300 feet sea level, just to be safe. Might be alligators, in the pacific northwest, in 30 years.
Venus Syndrome: just think being roasted like a turkey, like the outside is an oven, all the time, perhaps you would live for a few seconds …
A little ice age followed by Florida Man World: think mass oceanic evaporative event, think 10-15% of the mass, of the oceans, converting to vapor over a few months. In many ways the Earth’s oceans are like a thermal battery, and eventually they will discharge.
Snowball Earth: mass evaporative event, albedo effect kicks in, and you get global never ending winter, basically.
Of all the above: Hot House Earth would seem to fit future scenarios.
Like I said: I DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS THE “END OF THE WORLD”.
But we are entering treacherous waters, because history has become unstuck.
The show went GREAT … (but had those fun weird moments too)
It was good. We are very thankful to the folks at “Be Prepared Expo” for giving us the chance. I think a lot of folks were happy that we were there, mainly, to educate. To say “YES, you can network computers with single side band CB radios …” … it can be done, it can be done over a great distance. And nothing is perfect, but what we are doing with JS8Call (not something we built) is trying to say what basic text based services would a person want if they could get it almost everywhere, and eventually everywhere, but you control the system. You have a right-to-repair. You will get schematics. This is what we talked about, and it was maybe a little weird as presentations go, I think the audience appreciated the sentiment (or narc’d me out as some kind of white separatist … because I’m not … I’m not white … I’m ginger).
Some of the HAM guys seemed a bit “purposeful”, but I also think there are some weird vibes in the HAM community. You’d think they would want these frequencies to be used for more than just the “daily antenna report”, it would save HAM and free a lot of people from the WWW to create a separate, truly decentralized, international radio network.
