  • Can we stop with this nonsense please?

    A “near miss” is a completely nonsensical way of staging a failed assassination. This easily can go wrong with the target actually being hit. Why would the shooter, that somehow is such a great shot, that he can pull this off safely agree to it? The best case scenario for him would be to end up in prison the rest of his life, far more likely to be shot and killed on the scene so he can’t say anything.

    The secret service was under the Biden administration at the time, but protected Trump as a former president at that point. So you basically claim that Biden or people in his administration would have wanted to stage a failed assassination attempt on Trump. This also requires all the agents on site to be in on it and none of them to talk later. Again something completely nonsensical.

    The fact that Trump raised his fist and screamed is fairly easily explainable. That is the nature of Trump. When people are under shock, stocked full of adrenaline they fall back onto their instincts. What we saw in this moment was the most real version of Trump we probably ever get to see.









  • Know where to pitch a tent.

    If you are close to a stream, pitch the tent a few meters above the water. If it rains you don’t know how quickly it can rise.

    In the same wake, if you are pitching on a plain, pitch your tent on a relative rise. If you pitch in a relative depression rain will drench you.

    If you pitch on a slope, and there will usually be slight slopes, pitch your tent so, that your head is facing upwards when sleeping.

    If a storm is expected you might be inclined to pitch under a tree, but be careful. If a branch breaks off and hits you, that can be very bad.

    If you pitch your tent in the open and it is a hot summer, the inside will get very hot very quickly. Make sure to get up and out early, don’t get wasted at night and bring reflective covering. People died at festivals when they stayed in their tents when getting wasted and then getting roasted in their tents.




  • I strategically refrain from alcohol or other drug consumption. And my life has improved drastically ever since.

    Whatever the reason that you feel you have to abuse drugs as a coping mechanism, it will only make things worse. You will not be able to process your emotions, you will not be able to think clear about what is your best way forward and you will not be able to grow stronger while drugged up.

    The fact that you say you “needed to be anesthetized” for an uncomfortable conversation screams that you are either already having a drug abuse problem and that you have issues with your emotional regulation.






  • “For the aspiring politician there is no better way to get name recognition, build relationships with long-term donors, and to showcase oneself,” the hedge fund manager wrote, pitching the campaign like a business deal. “The risk/reward of running for mayor over the next 132 days is extremely compelling as the cost in time and energy is small and the upside is enormous.”

    Who wants to suck our dicks? Get to the dick sucking now! The chance never has been greater. We need our dicks sucked and will pay handsomely! If we like it, we’ll pass you around to suck even more dicks!





  • In the late 2000s, for instance, rumors circulated about a bunker in Iran struck by a bunker-buster bomb. The bomb had failed to penetrate—and remained embedded in—the surface of the bunker, presumably until the occupants called in a bomb-disposal team. Rather than smashing through the concrete, the bomb had been unexpectedly stopped dead. The reason was not hard to guess: Iran was a leader in the new technology of Ultra High Performance Concrete, or UHPC, and its latest concrete advancements were evidently too much for standard bunker busters.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fordow_Fuel_Enrichment_Plant

    Construction on the facility started in 2006, but the existence of the enrichment plant was only disclosed to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) by Iran on 21 September 2009,[6][7] after the site became known to Western intelligence services. Western officials strongly condemned Iran for not disclosing the site earlier;

    Seems to fall into the same timeframe.
