As I covered before in this blog, the depression  and suicide rate for children outpaced COVID in children during the lockdowns.  More kids killed themselves than died of COVID.

In the supposed name of helping children, the experts killed then.

Then there has been the rise of gender confirmation, where confused children are being subject to puberty blockers, hormone therapy, and genital mutilation surgery, in the name of Progress and helping children.

I recently read about another horror show of a scientist destroying children in the name of helping them.

Berlin authorities placed children with paedophile foster parent for 30 years

Authorities in Berlin placed children with a foster parent who was a paedophile for more than 30 years, researchers have said.

A new study has looked into the practice proposed by Dr Helmut Kentler, a psychologist who claimed paedophiles could make particularly loving parents for troubled children.

He is thought to have hypothesised it did children no harm to have sexual contact with adults.

The children were sexually abused and ended up much worse off.

I have example after example of adults in positions of power and authority claiming they have a plan to help children based on the best science and ideas that only harms them physically, mentally, emotionally, and sexually in the most horrific ways.

I’m getting to the point that the next time some expert says “we need to do [idea] for the children,” that expert and all of his/her associates need to be run through the woodchipper immediately before they have an opportunity to implement their plan, and then the rest of us do precisely the opposite.

Here’s to the Mask of the Red Death, maybe he’ll show up.

I forgot to comment about something that I did last week which kinda shows my brain slowly realizing we are not in Urban Miami anymore. It seems I will have no chance to avoid being taken hunting in November and talking about what to use, I mentioned I had a bolt action 30-06. I went to my room, picked up the cased rifle, took it to the BIL who uncased it and looked it over while I gave the history of acquisition and upgrading.

That happened in the front porch of the house. People drove by and nobody cared. No cops showed up un tactical vehicles because nobody called 911 screaming “active shooter killing nuns and orphans with evil assault sniper rifle.”

I was just regular folks with regular tools in a hot July afternoon.

Welcome to Gun Country.

And not ten minutes ago, I saw the family of turkeys crossing the road. It was too foggy for the phone camera and by the time I got the good one, they were gone.

No iguanas seen so far. 🙂

German cutlery combined with flintlock pistols (first quarter

of the 18th century) knife with slightly curved, single-edged iron blade, engraved with spirals, followed by rings with a baluster-shaped neck.
Fork with two prongs with square cross-section, with baluster-shaped neck en suite with the knife.
The brass handle of both pieces also consists of a flintlock pistol; with 11 mm cal. Barrel with shaped muzzle, outer iron hammer with engraved neck.
Outside brass pan, iron battery and the spring at the front of the handle, while the large spring and the trigger (the barrel is directed on the opposite side of the blade) are placed externally at the
back.

And you have to wonder what kind of environment required to have two guns literally at hand while eating or if this is just a German version of Redneck engineering after consulting with Florida Man.

Canada beats the US Women’s soccer team and goes to the final.

Megan Rapinoe of the United States looks dejected as Canada celebrate after the match

Before Megan Rapinoe and the whole Women’s Rights (pay us more! we haz vaginas!) in soccer crap came along with her, I was enjoying the hell out of soccer once again. I had seen matches played with heart and players being fierce which reminded me of the old time soccer I grew up watching.

But political bitch came along and covered the whole enchilada in political crap sauce rendering it unpalatable at first and then just plain disgusting even to look at.

And just to stay in focus: It was Megan’s team that lost, not the US even if they were wearing the colors. The US Olympic committee let her run the show so they can be considered the losers also.

But since this is the Olympics were losers are the “real winners”, expect to see Megan’s contract with Subway renewed and probably pick up a few endorsements on the way.  We are that upside down screwed up as a country  right now.

From CNN:

The rent is now due, America

It’s like Democrats in the White House and Congress forgot the date.

Now it’s the first of the month and rent — and back rent — is suddenly due for millions of Americans who have been shielded from eviction during the pandemic.

Millions of households could face eviction over the next month — when lawmakers on are on their annual August recess — and some have predicted a full-blown eviction crisis, just as a surge in Covid cases from the highly contagious Delta variant may be prompting renewed calls for people to stay home and keep their distance.

The Biden Administration only asked Congress do to something about this last Thursday, and they didn’t.

The Supreme Court rejected the White House making any more extensions on the eviction moratoriums.

So as of today, August 1st, people who did not pay their rent can be evicted.

It needs to be understood that there is about $13 Billion in back rent due, so landlords are being hurt badly by this.

I am willing to concede that early on in the pandemic, there were people who were put out of work by lockdowns and had a hard time making rent.  I am empathetic to them.

But more than a year later, reality has shown us that this whole situation is fucked.

The disaster is that this eviction moratorium created a perverse incentive.  We saw this once already with the enhanced unemployment benefits.

The federal government decided that the best thing to do was pay people extra unemployment benefits.  What did that accomplish?  As states began to open up, there was a labor shortage.  People were making more money staying home than going to work.  A perverse incentive was created.  Even Biden had to admit to that when Republican governors stopped providing the extra unemployment benefits to their states.

So with the eviction moratorium, another perverse incentive was created, people not paying their rent and spending that money on other stuff.

People were at home, collecting state and federal unemployment, not paying rent, and ordering shit off Amazon.  How else did Amazon make record pandemic profits?

We can’t pretend that every person who didn’t pay rent for the last year was some poor soul who just couldn’t make rent because they were broke and starving and out of work.

States have been reopening.  The biggest problem in some states is a lack of people wanting to work.  Enhanced unemployment has been going out for a year.

It’s clear that there were a lot of people who collected a lot of government money and didn’t spend any on rent and lived very high off the hog during their “funemployment.”

These people absolutely deserve to get evicted.

If a landlord sees a daily pile of Amazon boxes outside of an apartment that hasn’t paid rent in a year, he should be able to evict his tenant by tossing them out a window.

But we all know how the Left feels about landlords.  It is a tenet of Socialism/Communism that landlords are evil and should be killed.

So when these people who spent all their money turning their apartments into the perfect Instagram-worthy lockdown chambers and Zoom backgrounds rather than paying their rent get evicted, what do you think will happen?

Leftists getting kicked out crying all over social media how they are the victims of evil landlords because they are so poor?  Protests?  Riots?  Illegal squatting?  Antifa anti-landlord actions.  Murders?  All of the above?

I’m sensing Summer of Love 2.0, with mass civil unrest, not over a police shooting but over the police carrying out an eviction, of which there will be thousands.

I can’t imagine a way this doesn’t turn dicey.

This is going to suck.
