The photos are all from one dirt turnout on good old Route 101, Oregon.
What does the TV show ‘Better Call Saul’ have in common with Climate Change?
We’ll start with the latter. I’ve been posting photos on my Facebook page and a few posts ago let them have it with a paste-in of my ‘Seeing Sea Level’ post from here. Predictably, I got mostly idiocy from my FB ‘friends.’ Here’s a good example:
Talk about Appeal to Authority! All he did was list all the groups/agencies/etc. that are lying to him. Couldn’t he see that? And:
Only real difference between this and the first one is time of day, but what a big difference in quality of light (I like them both).
And on and on. The above from CT Allison sums up the problem: I give them a look at actual ‘science’ and all they can think of is what they saw on CNN or read in The NY Times. As far as I can see, I didn’t change a single mind with data that shows without doubt that ‘Climate Change’ is a crock. ‘They’ say that in 10 years we will all be under water and no one can ‘see’ that ‘their’ own data says otherwise. It was pure appeal to authority and ad hominem answers to my post.
Gotta love the Oregon fog for atmosphere.
But this is old news. How about ‘Better Call Saul’? I like the show and for amusement have been looking at the fanboy websites, which all pretty much say the show can do no wrong; it’s almost a biblical kind of devotion. They go deep into character and plot, way deeper than the actors and show runners likely do. Thing is, I’ve noticed some pretty serious story fuck ups, being qualified in this area, given how many fuck ups I’ve been responsible for over the decades, in many TV and screen stories. I stick ’em in comments.
Notwithstanding the lively back and forths with which the comment sections are rife, no one ever responded to my points, no matter how obviously correct they were. No replies, no thumbs ups or downs, nothing. Pure denial. I even mentioned their denial, challenged them on it, and got no reply. Denial on top of denial.
Addendum: I did get one reply on one site (about a detail) but it was so utterly dumb, really so incredibly illogical, that I forgot about it. I guess I was in denial about it.
My most recent critique is especially telling, considering the audaciousness of the show’s creators in covering up a fuck up: Back way earlier in the season they had our main character — he’s on the lamb with a new identity and being hunted big time by the PTB — get ‘made’ by a cab driver who recognized him. Our guy at first is going to bolt and get a new identity but then decides to ‘handle it myself,’ i.e., do something to somehow solve the problem, like maybe off the cab driver.
This is weeks ago, right? Then the episode comes up wherein he actually does it (solve the problem himself) and guess what? The show runners have gotten a different actor to play the cab driver. Totally different in every way. They make this public ahead of time, claiming that a ‘scheduling conflict’ was the problem; the original actor is no longer available. (An unknown actor, by the way, meaning there is no way he was actually ‘unavailable,’ given this was the part of his acting life.)
My neighbor in the turnout for three days. ‘Turtle’ is his name. Another Rubber Tramp and a cool dude.
The new actor they get plays the role dumb and meek while the original actor was ballsy, macho, and obviously smart. But the way the show was written, the cab driver had to be a mama’s boy and meek. So the original guy would not have worked.
From experience I immediately knew what actually happened: When the writers had our guy say ‘I’ll handle it myself,’ it was a major plot point, but guess what? They had not a clue as to what would actually happen. They’d figure that out when the time came to write that episode. Well, this is no way to write a show. You have to know basically what is going to happen or you end up… casting the wrong actor.
Well, the fanboys bought the ‘scheduling conflict’ bullshit hook, line and sinker, not believing the show runners would lie to them. As you all know, I hate lies, so me being me I blurted the truth and pasted it in to all the popular Better Call Saul fanboy Youtube channels:
Guess what? Not a word in reply. More denial. In fact, one of the channels even deleted (censored!) my comment.
(Long sigh)… I guess my point is how hopeless it all is, when people are even in denial about the truth of HTWRW in a TV show.
Have I brightened your day?

…You fucking leftists are geniuses…” – B. Blaise
Well, thanks for the “compliment,” but I’m no leftist, only a realist when it comes to impacts on the earth caused by fossil fuels like oil, natural gas and coal.
As I see it, for the sake of Gaia and future generations, we must evolve a global eco-consciousness – part of the next phase in the evolution of the noosphere – and transition into a post-Industrial ‘green revolution’ that takes us beyond the damaging ecological effects of traditional forms of energy.
Of course, the powerful and deceptive fossil fuel industry does not wish to see such a green transition occur, primarily because of the huge profits they reap from their destructive anti-environmental practices.
All forms of energy, alternative included, adversely impact the environment in some way, but solar and wind leave far less of an ecological imprint compared to oil, gas and coal, and are much safer.
https://www.zmescience.com/other/feature-post/safest-forms-of-energy-05022022/amp/
You can’t have your solar or wind energy without fossil fuels. Have you
seen the giant windmill spring a leak. It takes massive amounts of petroleum fluids in the gearbox. All your electric cars requires lubricants, You can’t decide. what you get out
of a barrel of oil. you get 40 % gasoline, you get 20% diesel. What do you plan on doing with all this gasoline and diesel you will no longer need? Once again. They are having to fire coal
plants once again.
Blah, Blah, Blah…
I’m not talking either…or.
I’m looking at the ‘big picture’ future of humans on the earth, whereas you cannot even begin to see the forest for the trees.
Are you incapable of responding to the factual evidence contrasting the effects of fossil fuels to alternatives like wind and solar?
It would appear that you cannot, which is truly sad.

Mean while, they are dredging up the tired old “man made” climate change B.S, to try and distract what is really going on -> https://www.oliviapierson.org/blog/rational-rage-father-of-son-with-myocarditis-unleashes-on-nz-pharmacy-that-vaccinated-his-son
“… I didn’t change a single mind with data that shows without doubt that ‘Climate Change’ is a crock…” – A.W.
Well, why would anyone change their mind, since you have actually provided evidence that supports the idea of climate change?
The NOAA sea rise data you shared shows unequivocally that GLOBAL SEA LEVELS ARE RISING, reinforcing the fact of global warming. After all, a warming earth climate is a prime contributor to higher sea levels. The data certainly does not show “without doubt” that climate change is a “crock of shit.”
Furthermore, it is not only the case that global sea levels have been rising over the last 150 years, correlated with the rise of industrialism and CO2 emissions into the atmosphere, but recent research shows that sea levels have risen at an increasing rate (over 2x faster) in the early 21st century than they did during much of the 20th century, an accelerative trend that does not bode well for the long term future.
To quote a blog member who responded to your ‘Seeing Sea Level’ post, and hit the nail on the head,
“The problem is that the rise is accelerating over the last years, so linear extrapolation for 100 years is not a good prediction…”
(NOTE: I have heard no one, especially anyone in the scientific community, spew the alarmist nonsense that, “…in 10 years we will all be under water…”. That is pure hyperbole!)
Also, it should be emphasized that rising sea levels are only one of many lines of evidence scientists cite in support of climate change. Others include:
– Warming Land Temperatures
– Warming Ocean Temperatures
– Reduced Ice Sheets
– Melting Glaciers
– Decreased Snow Cover
– Extreme Weather Events
…
Viewed as a ‘big picture’ whole, these current changes on the earth, which are now occurring more rapidly than in the pre-industrial past, strongly favor the conclusion – one shared by the vast majority of climate scientists – that global warming induced by human industrial activity is real, and is almost certainly not a “crock of shit”.

Haven’t there been many alarmist predictions which have not even remotely come true? For example, Mt. Kilimanjaro was predicted to be snowless by now. Polar Bears were going to be on the brink of extinction. The Great Barrier Reef was dead and gone. These are just a few of the outlandish claims and predictions which have proven to be nowhere near accurate.
Anyone interested in studying climate change and the dire predictions that have been made should start with the Crichton’s novel “State of Fear.”
I am not a climate change alarmist and do not like when those on either side of the issue resort to hype and sensationalism.
I’m an old surfer who will likely not be affected by global warming, but I have children and grandchildren, and they will almost certainly be impacted by the changes occurring on earth in the decades and centuries ahead due to human industrial activity.
I think long term, and often reflect on the following question: what kind of planet will our children’s children’s children inherit?
BTW, as far as Crichton’s novel is concerned, it is a work of fiction, and one that distorts scientific facts.
I personally favor truth over fiction
I just watched the nightly news. They claim the sea turtles are
at risk because of rising temps. What do they do? They put
tracking devices on these young turtles that they admit 1 in 1000
will not make it. What happens to the sea life that feeds on these young turtles
that now have tracking devices??
As far as our children and grandchildren, have you bothered to check
into what needs to be destroyed to supply the green machine?? Batteries, solar panels.
Its coming true now in Ca. The panels at the beginning, now they are at their end of
life. Ca. has no jurisdiction to handle the problem. They are going to dumps.
If you would bother to look, they are destroying nature to procure what
they need to pull off the green agenda.
All in the name of climate change.
“…If you would bother to look, they are destroying nature to procure what
they need to pull off the green agenda.
All in the name of climate change.”
I have looked…
Are you seriously suggesting that the “green agenda” of alternative energies like solar and wind are more destructive to the natural world than the “fossil fuel agenda” emphasizing oil, gas and coal?
Do you even realize the extent to which corporate giants of the fossil fuel industry – Exxon-Mobil, Shell, Chevron, BP… – are funding the anti-green movement?
In fact, if you would bother to look, you would discover that many of the global warming/climate change skeptics and deniers, including right-wing politicians and media, are snug in bed with the oil, gas and coal industry.
The Koch brothers, American Petroleum Institute, Rupert Murdoch and Fox (Faux) News, to name just a few in the greedy and powerful ‘energy industrial media complex’, are distorting the truth about the effects of human industrial activity on the earth.
These folks remind me of those who supported the tobacco industry during its propaganda campaign to dupe people into believing that cigarettes were safe and nicotine a non-addictive drug.
History seems to be repeating itself, with the corporate moneyed interests doing everything in their power to conceal the truth, in this case about global warming/climate change.
“Haven’t there been many alarmist predictions which have not even remotely come true…?”
Hmmm, not even remotely come true?
For the record, Mt. Kilimanjaro may not be snowless, but 90% of its glacial ice cap has melted over the last century or so, and I would be willing to bet that global warming has played a major role.
As far as the Australian Great Barrier Reef, marine scientists studying the 1,500 mile tract report that 50% of its coral cover has died in recent decades.
The situation is even worse in the Florida Keys, where large portions of the only living coral reef in North America have perished.
Higher ocean temperatures, which can cause coral bleaching and acidification, is believed to be a major contributer to the rapid reef decline occurring on the earth.
So, just because Mt. Kilimanjaro is not entirely free of snow and ice, as some in the past speculated would be the case by now, and the Great Barrier Reef is not completely dead, does not mean that climate change is not occurring.
It seems to me that Gaia is sending humanity some rather clear signals that should be heeded.
Hello!!!!
Germany and the US are firing up their coal plants. They cant keep up.
Blackouts brownouts whatever you want to call them everywhere. Hey,
lets make everyone drive an electric vehicle. We will just plug into the system
that CANT provide the power we need now. You fucking leftist are geniuses.
Look at the pics of the devistation on the environment from the mining of lithium
and all the other products they need to complete your green agenda.
Just to gloss back on it if you haven’t notice Germany up a shir creek without a paddle. They have it all. Solar wind. And they cant supply the electric to their
country.
Yes they are firing up their coal generators buying coal from Botswana and
telling the African continent they wont make any loans to projects that have anything to
do with fossil fuels,
Who is getting rich off this????

Your quote brings to mind a certain ex-president…
The talking heads on the left have been lying about a certain ex-president for over six years now. We can start with a stolen election using Russian collusion.
Allan,
Here’s the kind of bit where I hope you’re one of the lucky few interested – sorry about the Twitter link, not always reliable:
https://mobile.twitter.com/BGrueskin/status/1555762461042622464?cxt=HHwWgICq1eXtlpcrAAAA
If it works, you’ll see one of the purely insane legal community clips (kinda like Susan Atkins’s attorney, but with a chode here who’s much cooler under pressure) whereby I can ascertain for myself that about 10% of the dread “MM” site claims have at least something like a factual basis. ‘Cause it’s just too crazy seeing an attorney speak out like this – possibly misusing “litigable,” but in any case what non-movie attorney is gonna speak with that dumb word – when his case against ‘Alex Jones’ is kinda not really over yet.
“Bring down the Infowars corpse” – well, I think most of us here know Snady Kooh (Alias is a protection from legal problems) to be a total fraud with crisis actors. But, is it a possibility that this totally fake event may have had added onto it a totally fake trial for defamation – what does it take to “offend” some crisis actors? And what about the rumor that Alex Jones is really I can understand if there’s a reluctance to go to a Twitter page, but if you do, note how standing to the right of the “bro” attorney is another presumable “legal guy” who could almost be the stand-in/double for the speaking one. And how after his speech, our fearless lawman gives some weird gay pat to the third guy shown in video. It’s like “how woke can we be?” when we’re going after the evil “Mr. Jones”… hit all the “offend right-wingers” bases. Total Clown World. (I admit, in spite of all, I’ve occasionally enjoyed listening to Alex, or Bill, do his crazed speeches.)
Good luck on the book – maybe it isn’t something where this style fits, but I have appreciated your ability for “slow-reveal” in a write-up, as though it’s a detective story.
Meant to say Alex Jones is really Bill Hicks. So some who analyze photographs have said!
Sorry for the silence, been having cell connect troubles. The Alex Jones stuff is just another indication that he’s been on the other side all along, and yes I tend to agree he used to be bill hicks. there is no limit to the nonsense, is there?
It’s definitely complicated…
When you like what someone says (I sometimes listen to ol’ Alex/Bill driving home – there’s a regular radio station playing his show!!) but know of his history of deception (I heard excerpts from a William Cooper broadcast where – on the eve of Y2K, Jones was spinning predictable nonsense, Putin at the time was “like a demon” according to him…. fwiw) and, yeah, he may be a former alternative/edgy comic who, ironically, is beloved by many hipster types who probably think they hate anything Infowars. Texas must be a world unto itself. Even my one visit – stopping at the D/Fort-Worth airport on the way to CA – it felt like a whole other cuntry. In ‘99.
I know you know Fetzer (who I still kinda like). It would be interesting to hear if you’ve had any run-ins with “Alex” and/or other Infowars fellas. Or at least… any Texas tales?
Sense something strange about it, as well?
(I’m a huge fan of Texas musicians Buddy Holly and Freddie King… and, to a lesser extent, Roky Erickson and Janis Joplin, so this ain’t just pure Yankee condescension.)
I actually did have a sort of run in with Alex J but I can’t recall what the f it was. a long time ago…
LOL! Nooo! , – they are 2 totally different people, with totally different VOICES.
And one has always been very “portly” 🙂
Yes, you’ve brightened my day…I posted two vaccine meme etymologies on my website, and tweeted them. Twitter objected to both as “misinformation” and I was locked out for a day. All of the tweets I cited are still there and not censored…The only people to follow me on Twitter are women, but obviously bots…I researched two catchphrases of the late Vin Scully (“It’s time for Dodger baseball” and “Hi everybody, and a pleasant good evening to you, wherever you may be”). I got just one like–from a guy I copied. That’s how bad the censorship is. Thirty years of hard work for no audience at all.
Thanks for broaching the subject and daring to piss off the acolytes, Allan. Especially those who do not understand agency capture via the funding chain, and how it relates to politics and the election cycle.
I have 60 years of surfing, fishing and sailing my stretch of coast and traveling through the many seas of this blue marble. Though I have seen some accelerated coastal erosion, mostly due to coastal hardening (Man built coastal morphology alteration) I have seen no obvious sea level rise. (Tidal exchange is not a reliable indicator of sea level rise)
I will never trust experts who are not, and simply play for pay. I have seen the reasons for my distrust of them illustrated in glaring ways while working in fairly high level ocean projects at Google, via the UN, in DC, and in other Global venues.
As we both know, the ocean timeline makes the human life span scale a mere spec of sand on the cosmic beach.
That Mark Twain quote (you know the one) comes to mind reading down through the comments.
Keep at it!
So, I guess what’s occurring in south Florida is in your view a climate change fiction?
Just curious.
Miami Is the “Most Vulnerable” Coastal City Worldwide – Scientific American” https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/miami-is-the-most-vulnerable-coastal-city-worldwide/
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/miami-is-the-most-vulnerable-coastal-city-worldwide/
Problem is, Bill, that if you go to the nearest sea level measuring station, it says with 95% purity that Miami’s sea level will rise .98 feet in 100 years. Period. Showing pics of people walking in flooded parking lots is just pure bull shit lies. don’t you know that by now?
https://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/sltrends/sltrends.html
Trusting Scientific American is like trusting CNN.
The NOAA monitoring stations you reference do not make predictions about sea level over the next 100 years. They simply cite CURRENT annual sea rise which, if multiplied by 100, tell you the amount of change that would occur in a century, ASSUMING THE RATE OF SEA LEVEL RISE REMAINS CONSTANT GOING FORWARD.
What is missing from that picture is the fact that GLOBAL SEA RISE HAS MORE THAN DOUBLED in recent decades compared to much of the 20th century. For example, sea levels increased recently to 3.6 mm a year from 1.4 mm a year 30 years ago.
Projecting future sea levels (in the above example, 14″ of sea rise a century) based on current annual sea level rise is based on the faulty assumption that the seas are rising at a constant rate, which they are not. It does not acknowledge the fact that the rate of sea rise is ACCELERATING.
Computer models factor this accelerative trend into them in projecting future sea levels.
Hmmm… I guess I should trust the conspiratorial BS on Infowars over Scientific American 😂.
Yes, the awash rock at low water at Montauk that is still awash says it all. Really. The numbers, the real ones from NOAA itself helps, but seeing the damn rock is reality.
We all know, I assume, that this (climate change) is a crock of shit.” – A.W.
Allan, over 95% of climate scientists happen to disagree with your “crock of shit” conclusion about climate change but, hell, what do those who study the matter know?
After all, in your view most scientists – theoretical physicists (even Albert!), cosmologists, virologists, climatologists, evolutionary biologists, etc.- are wrong, and you know, or at least think you do, far more than they.
Here is an amended version (the original was censored by you) of my response to your ‘Seeing Sea Levels’ post:
The NOAA empirical data you cite about rising sea levels actually supports the reality of climate change, yet you choose to deny the reality.
What’s more, the information you provide re: local (e.g. Montauk) sea level rise is incomplete, and distorts the ‘big picture’ of what is actually happening globally over time in our oceans.
You note the NOAA research indicating average sea level increases of roughly 1/2 – 1′ a century based on past data collected. However, what you fail to point out is the ACCELERATING RATE of sea level rise – twice as fast – that has occurred over the last few decades, a trend that will likely continue into the future unless humans become wiser stewards of the earth by curbing industrial emissions into its atmosphere.
A 2022 NOAA report states that over the next 30 years (2020-2050) global sea levels will rise 10-12″, a greater increase than that observed over the last 100 or so years.
https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/hazards/sealevelrise/sealevelrise-tech-report.html
The projections of sea level rise are even greater for the second half of the 21st century if ecologically destructive trends like increased burning of fossil fuels and deforestation of the planet continue.
To sum up, sea levels are rising, as you have correctly noted (using NOAA monitoring data), but the rise is occurring at a much faster rate than you acknowledge.
I lived on a south Florida canal for nearly 40 years and observed significant sea level changes during that time. The anecdotal evidence was seen in higher high tides, especially during king tides when water would often rise 4-6″ above my seawall, something that rarely happened in decades past.
South Florida is currently experiencing the effects of global warming/climate change. Sea levels in the Miami area have risen 6″ over the last 25 years, and high tide flooding has increased 400% since 2006. It is not uncommon for the area to flood at extreme high tides, even on rainless sunny days, so imagine what the next few decades could bring.
Future models project a sea level increase of another foot or more in Miami by 2050, with coastal flooding occurring 10x as often then compared to now.

I have a problem with people saying there is no climate change. The climate
has always changed. Its the the manmade BS that doesn’t compute.
We have the great lakes , according to our scientists saying they were were
carved out from an expanding glacier. That includes the grand canyon. We
have dinosaur fossils in the Antartic. Soooo… we have North America melting
and Antartica freezing. The dinosaurs were not controlling their methane output and
caused climate change???
By the way who pays these scientists and who educated them. Its the same with
the medical profession. I remember all through my early schooling being tested multiple
times a year They knew who the highly intelligent were and guided them with scholarships
and incentives to pursue the PTB’s interests. Just my opinion.

“On The Lam” Vs. “On The Lamb”
“On the lam” means that someone is running away from something, usually the police as we’ve mentioned throughout this article. “On the lamb” is a misinterpretation of the phrase and is incorrect.
If you say “on the lamb,” it means that someone is directly on top of a lamb, which is never going to be necessary to write about. Make sure you understand this difference before trying to use the saying yourself.
lol
Best wishes.
The real question is Why did you find it necessary to be nasty in your correction of my (inconsequential) error?
lol
Best wishes.

Gee whiz!
I would have hoped to get the benefit of the doubt.
This was a quote from the reference at top of the comment.
I considered putting the whole thing in a block but didn’t think it worth the time.
Will point out that “as we’ve mentioned throughout this article” is a pretty good hint.
I had much the same thought about “on the lamb” and thought it was funny, that’s all.
Sorry I offended you, but “Go fuck yourself” is a bit harsh, imo.
What was harsh was the ‘lol Best Wishes’ on top of the crapola.
I learnt that term in the mid eighties, from Robert Palmer’s Riptide album. I had thought, for a while, that the line was “talking on the lawn”!

”KILL YOUR TELEVISION”…….
Hey thats going too far correct?
I mean what would we do with all that free time that’s created when we walk away from our screens?
I mean is it better to just expose the problems than actually come up with valid simple solutions?
I think some are leaving the hamster wheel behind after coming to a conclusion which is: refusing to participate…as much as possible that is without having to go live under a bridge on food stamps with no air conditioning or safe permanency because we’re figuring out this is all a sham.
There’s a couple choices we either refuse to participate… or we go ‘all in’ hot! forgetting what’s happening and just letting it ride till the wheels fall off the wagon, and deal with collapse when it happens… in the meantime just keep playing the music as the Titanic goes Stern up forcing the band to quit playing… and then the shouts and screams can be heard by everyone realizing that the balance of life is in jeopardy and it may be too late to do anything except jump in the water and freeze to death maybe you find something to hang on to as one falls asleep peacefully from hypothermia, clinging to the flotsam and jetsam around you, you ignore the dead bodies around you and watch the ship go under…………..
I guess everybody decides for themselves which part they want to play in the show.
We keep coming back circular reasoning to the same place which is: enjoy the ride or unplug- dancing between the two leads to insanity having to go to a psychiatrist to get to get pills that make one happy where it’s 72° and sunny inside your brain at all times better living through chemistry! but God forbid we ever turn off the television and just wander out into the wilderness that still does exist.
One can go quite a long time without food but not water. Hypothermia is a most peaceful way to go if you a fortunate enough to live in a cool climate. Isn’t that how the Scandinavians the old people who just wander off into the woods… I think they did that sort of thing in Siberia and in Japan as well I think that was also a way here in North America among some tribes……. Sorry for the gory depressed thoughts but after 56 years here on the planet one can get a little tired of seeing the same picture and knowing that everything has been engineered for catastrophic failure when the PTB decides it’s time….
Right now everyone is playing their part in the controlled demolition of the human race(me included)
Television screens and now refresh rates etc etc we’re part of that original psychotronic hypnotization device known as a cathode ray TV screen….
Its so fun and entertaining, hours wasted watching the slow motion Trainwreck… might as well sit down a while on a comfy couch or layzboy with fizzy drinks and salty snacks, a witness, eyes of the universe, watching in horror and not being able to really do squat about it… except maybe if we all complain on social media long enough while hoping that someone has a better answer to the situation and is able to do something about it. (Because I just want to go surfing and fishing and not think about it)
Solutions and answers… I want off the hamster wheel.
My God im sorry for being a part of this mess.
Participate blissfully unaware as the cypher character wanted- wealthy, famous, and important……
Or play the Neo/ Skywalker character?
I just want off this hamster wheel and I think minimizing screen time is a good place to start.
Better call Saul and breaking bad are definitely dark entertainment, with that being said I think I would rather just go surfing and spend time with my loved ones reminiscing nostalgically about the good old days…..
Blessings and Aloha from the Great Lakes Allan and audience.
Came across this one. Thought it was fitting.
Ephesians 6:12
New International Version
12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Allan, quit watching at the end of Year 3, disgusted with Jimmy. Period. Watched last night for 1st time since then.
Clarification please. The cab driver you’re referencing is the new man who drove the identity stealer who gets his marks drunk, right? Or the younger guy who quit?
Hope the identity stealer gets shot next week.
Yeah, the identity stealer, Jeff, whose mom is played by Carol Burnett. I’m not disgusted with Jimmy, exactly, but the show has set itself up for a bummer of a climax.Having had my own troubles with endings, I can see it coming.
AW-
Thx! Will watch the ends nd comment.
Great episode 12! I may be wrong about how it will end.
As regards all the mainstream blather re climate change, nope.
However:

GREAT photo’s Allan – I really like that ‘Turtle’ character with his flag etc. – the “rubber tramp” LOL!.
Do you realize you are getting FAR MORE support from folks on facebook, than is normal??….which is usually damn near ZERO when it comes to talking about how the world really works, and even bringing up PROOF that the masses are being horribly lied to.
You actually have ‘Rockstar’ status, with a few people guarding you, and backing you 100%.
I got squat diddly when I started blowing the whistle on the plandemic 21/2 years ago.
And I was 100% RIGHT, and NO fucker came back to tell me that, or heaven forbid – Apologize.
I actually did not notice that people are guarding me (besides you), but you’re right. It’s nice. I think.
Even more disheartening is that most people care more about HTWRW in a TV show than HTWRW in the “real” world.
Helluva good point.
Not really… tv has always been the great escape. As long as it’s on “the screen” it’s at a safe and turnoffable place whereas “real” or in yo face is too close for many folks comfort zone.
