we can use the steel, copper and aluminum in construction, too. we need more affordable apartment buildings.

the coffee made me poop. that's normal. there was some bacon in there, but also bits of the previous pasta, like red sauce (paprika or tomatoes) and some spices that might have been dill. i wasn't completely cleared out. i should have eggs again tonight, then.

i don't know if it's because it cleared my colon or because the muscle contractions in peristalsis also tend to completely clear your urinary tract, but that cleared me out, as it has previously. repeatedly.

the thing i understand is the steroids and testosterone. it's pretty clear somebody is drugging me with that. i should focus on catching and prosecuting that, and then try to figure out the rest after.
this morning was very weird but is upholding my previous deductions.

i didn't get to cleaning up or dying my hair, which is today's priority. i put together some documents for police, and i had some eggs around 7:00. i fell asleep around 8:00. i was already feeling a little agitated, but very tired, and i succumbed.

they woke me up a couple of times - around 9:00, around 10:30, around 12:30. i was limp each time. i sleep with my midsection covered. they have no actual idea what is going on down there, but they aren't reacting to evidence, they're operating on "theory". 

this suggests that the suppression worked and that there was no testosterone in the bacon and eggs. the bacon and eggs uses a lot of margarine to make, and i used up the last of the bin. i think i can be confident that it's not in there. i had a big glass of juice; it wouldn't be likely to be in there, but the grapefruit juice might be making it worse. i put a little ceasar dressing on there. i did not use hot sauce.

however, on two occasions that i woke up to urinate i went back to sleep and experienced something i might describe as a full body orgasm. this would be building on the sensation i started feeling in the morning before i ate. i was limp throughout the process both times, but parts of my body were triggering. i could feel my scrotum contracting, with nothing coming out, and no subsequent erection. what was going on?

i don't know. i know my estrogen, progesterone and prolactin were all very high before i gave myself the hormone bath and, under different circumstances where i didn't think i was being watched and controlled, the feeling is such that i may want to fantasize about having vaginal sex. this was something more similar to female than to male arousal, and while i don't like being controlled, i'd be far more likely to get into this if they'd stop trying to masculinize me, which i don't like and think is gross and dumb. i'm not interested in male performative behaviour, which i think is primitive and stupid, and i'm going to push back and fight against them forever if they keep trying to generate erections, which i don't want. if they were to pump me full of estrogen and oxytocin, i might find myself unable to resist in the same way that i'm resisting their drugging of me with testosterone. this isn't an invitation by any means, i'm just pointing out that my reaction to their control methods in the absence of testosterone is very different than it is in the presence of it. cutting the testosterone out and replacing it with massive amounts of estrogen and progesterone almost made it not so bad, although i'm sure i'd get tired of this pretty quick, as well, if it started happening more frequently.

the first time, i fell asleep and woke up limp again around 12:30. the second time, i couldn't fall back asleep, and i couldn't stop the contractions, which kept coming, with no result. i was in this state of full body orgasm with my body repeatedly trying to trigger into priapism and repeatedly failing to do so for well over an hour before i took some calcium. i'll note i'm a little constipated, but i did pass some gas and it did relieve some pressure.

this is essentially the same thing that i've experienced over the previous few days, except that i'm back to being impotent and presume that there is minimal to no fructose sitting in my tubes to be cleared. it indicates that this is a two or three step process, but i already knew that. i've cut the testosterone out and am going to try to isolate it. i've determined that this started building before i ate.

i'll note that there was a smell of stale marijuana in the building this morning. i'll also note that if they came in here to put steroids in my hot sauce, they might have been able to put something like viagra in my juice, although the cause and effect doesn't uphold that. i was drinking a packaged instant coffee that is unlikely to have been tampered with.

i think the high female hormone levels are actually contributing and might be what i was feeling this morning, and that's ok, so long as i can get the testosterone back down to 0 where i want it. they wouldn't be causing my scrotum to dry contract and my body to repeatedly try to get erect and repeatedly fail, in the absence of any sexual stimulus, which i don't want. this only happens after i urinate, when i wake up. i think i'm breathing something in when i'm sleeping and pissing it out when i wake up and that thing isn't testosterone but some other hormone that triggers the process, like cortisol or oxytocin.

it's going to be very hard for me to prove that they're smoking something when i'm sleeping and it's chemically raping me when i wake up.

let me see if i can clear this out with coffee and water, get my hair fixed and focus on getting another blood test in the next few days.
we should also give cuba a call and see what they're up to and if they want to hang out.
have you noticed that some types of juice and fruit didn't double in price?

it's because they're from mexico, or brazil.

it's trump's choice to force us to buy from other countries. it doesn't hurt us to do that.

i looked into this a little, and the big companies, like walmart and sobeys, already use a market system to find the cheapest source in their manufactured products, like juice. that's why their brand name juice didn't go up. the market-based juice sourcing process just shifted sources.

this is right in trump's backyard, too. he should take a walk around some orange plantations in florida and ask the farmers how business is going. that won't come up in the job numbers, because america doesn't pay it's farm workers, it enslaves them.

this is just getting started. there's lots and lots of things that we can start buying from mexico, instead. that's going to take a big chunk out of us gdp. it's what trump wants.

we should call the brazilians and the chileans, as well. brazil is a big economy, but it's still developing. chile is generally considered a first world country, and argentina isn't that far off.

"Mexico will continue to pay a 25% Fentanyl Tariff, 25% Tariff on Cars, and 50% Tariff on Steel, Aluminum and Copper," Trump said in a Truth Social post. "Additionally, Mexico has agreed to immediately terminate its Non Tariff Trade Barriers, of which there were many."

all evidence is that trump just doesn't understand. 

he thinks he's taxing the outside world to pay off the debt. he's repeatedly talked about making other countries pay.

of course, americans will pay the 25% fentanyl tariff, the 25% tariff on cars an d the 50% tariff on metals, no mexicans, which trump is insistent should not pay any tariffs at all, and would get very angry if the mexicans did levy tariffs n their own citizens.

i'm not a scholar of american history, but i don't think this level of insanity has ever existed at the presidential level before, with the possible exception of reagan. trump is nowhere near as flat out stupid as george w. bush was, and he won't be remembered for lacking intelligence. this is more in the neighbourhood of a nero or a henry viii.

but the best examples are chinese, even if i don't know them off of the top of my head. this level of nonsense is actually rare in the west. it's more reflective of the decadence of oriental despotism.
jello does not dissolve in water unless it's boiling.

that's the point.

so that won't work.
this salted caramel iced latte is supposed to be a cold drink, and it is relatively tasty when prepared with cold water.

maybe i should just drink it on it's own and get to the next round of coffee after. 

there's five left.

what do i do with jello, exactly? jello, like marshmallows, isn't really food. can i put jello in coffee?
on my first blood test, i wasn't fasting and my ketones were in ketosis levels. on the second blood test, i was fasting and the ketones were trace. neither test suggested any sign of diabetes.

it would seem to be far more likely that the ketones in the urine were byproducts of how steroids were manufactured, which i hadn't picked up before. i've found three types of anabolic steroids that are manufactured as ketones (acetates or enanthates) and which are soluble in vinegar.

i'm going to avoid the hot sauce for a few days and see what happens.
the second test had trace ketones in urine. i had blood ketones tested, but the results are not in yet. the results of urine cortisol also have not come in yet.

these are my normal testosterone results:

clearly, testing at 1.1 is anomalous.

the orchiectomy was in the summer of 2021.
interestingly, anabolic steroids are often distributed as an acetate, which would show up in urine as a ketone.
however, anabolic steroids are not water soluble. they are fat soluble and soluble in alcohol. they would be soluble in vinegar.

i should be able to identify if somebody put steroid pills in my juice or milk, as it should separate out (like oil and vinegar). it would potentially be harder to identify in the salad dressing, the margarine or the hot sauce.

i put heaping amounts of hot sauce on almost everything.

i don't think this is how they're doing it, but i have to be rigorous about this.
the next few meals are going to need to be things that they couldn't have spiked. things they could have spiked are

- open juice
- open soy milk
- open salad dressing
- open frank's

they couldn't have spiked things like fruit, eggs or cheese. so, it makes sense to have bacon and eggs this morning and take it from there.
i need to document this somewhere as i'm doing it.

over the next few days, i need to come to a clear answer on whether i'm being drugged via food, via injection, via smoke or some combination of them. specifically, i need to figure out whether there's testosterone in my food or not. then i need to make a choice and act on it.

what i learned from that pdf document is that orally administered steroids take a while to digest. you couldn't drop steroids in somebody's drink and expect it to effect them that night. it needs to go through their system, and most absorption occurs in the colon. this is probably why i'm experiencing the effects right before i need to shit.

conversely, the female and male-blocking hormones i'm taking voluntarily are absorbed extremely fast, via the stomach, and at peak within a few hours.

there's a caveat i need to introduce, which is that my metabolism is bizarrely fast, unless i slow it down with tums, which i have been doing lately. i can push something out within 12 hours. on top of that, my diet is extremely high in fibre, which speeds it up that much more. in fact, i need to take a shit right now.

back.

that was the pasta that i ate half of about 15 hours ago and the rest of less than 6 hours ago, and i think it was mostly from the latter because it's not the first of it. i know it's the most recent pasta meal because i already shit the last thing i ate, the quinoa, out in one massively epic rock hard three foot log that may have mildly torn on the way out and threatened to clog, but did push it's way through after the third flush. it's really that fast - less than 24 hours, unless i'm unusually constipated. i eat these giant meals and don't gain any weight. when it's really fibre based, it just rips through; i'll shit out a family-sized serving bowl worth of salad in 5 or 6 hours. this is probably the actual reason i can't build iron stores, because my metabolism is too fucking fast to absorb anything properly.

that means that what is in my colon is mostly food i ate in the last day or two, max, and probably food i've eaten in the last 12 hours. it's not as fast as the pills i take voluntarily, but it's unusually fast for digestion. it's fast enough to test. i may have to argue this point, but i had a cancer scare a few years ago, and i documented this pretty thoroughly. i have to be really, really constipated to hold on to any meal at all for more than two days, and that's why my bmi is in the 19-20 range, despite eating like a queen. i couldn't gain weight if i wanted to (thankfully, i don't want to).

this is what i did:

- i finished eating around 20:00. it was the last bit of pasta and a couple of pieces of toasted italian bread. after eating the garlic cheese buns, i ate through the baguette and mostly ate the white bread with pb and jam and plum butter. i still have the loaf of italian bread, a loaf of whole wheat bread and a loaf of flax/quinoa bread i bought myself.
- i took a giant shit a few hours ago that cleared out the most recent pasta (it was after the giant quinoa shit). i just pushed out whatever was left as i was typing this.
- a few hours later, i doubled up on all of my hormones all at once - t-blockers, estrogen and progesterone. this is a lot of everything. my doctor would scream at me, but my liver and kidneys are testing ok, and i had to do this to test. this is intended to just overwhelm my system, and it might make me a little sick, but that's ok.
- i then masturbated, which i almost never do. it'd been about four months. ish. i don't like to masturbate because it's male performative. i won't get into the details, but i masturbate in a way that minimizes the male performative aspect as much as possible. it's actually fairly female performative. i cannot generally get erect at all, let alone maintain an erection, and masturbating is sort of weird for that reason. i have to kind of rub up against a mostly limp appendage. i don't usually ejaculate anything out when it's done and the fact that i did tonight is further proof that i've recently been drugged. anything i might do to negate this aside, the reality is that my anatomy is what it is and it's impossible to get around the male performative component, so i'd rather just avoid it altogether. when my testosterone is properly suppressed, i can and have gone months and months, perhaps years (i didn't keep track) without masturbation, but i have been drugged recently and i had to face the cold reality that, because i've been repeatedly drugged and haven't ejaculated in months, anything clogging up my system would be contributing to the problem, in terms of experiential effects. i did this to clear my system out. it should both make me feel better and help isolate sources, for testing. now that i'm completely cleared out, my body should have a difficult time generating anything further, unless i'm drugged again. 
- now, i need to be clear about this. when they removed my testicles, they removed both my sperm cells and my vas deferens, so i'm physically incapable of generating or ejecting any kind of sperm at all. however, i do still have a prostate and i do still have various tubes and ducts like the seminal vesicle that create the non-sperm parts of semen, like the lubricating fluid. what came out would actually be mostly sugar, and a bit of protein. once again, when my testosterone is properly suppressed, my body does not produce this fluid, either. however, i've been repeatedly drugged, and there was some fluid in my ducts for that reason. it's more proof that i've been drugged. i removed that from my system, and it should make a positive difference.
- if i don't get drugged again, it should take months for this fluid to build back up to any substantive level, if it even does at all. if it builds back up quickly, it's evidence that the source of testosterone i'm being drugged with is in the air or in my food.
- i'm going to avoid eating for a while and see what happens.

i'm essentially clearing myself out as much as i can, radically shocking my system with a massive female hormone bath and then seeing what happens. do symptoms cease, indicating i successfully detoxed it out and they'll have to get in here to drug me again? or do they continue, indicating it's in my food, or that i'm breathing it in?

for tonight, i'm going to try to clean up and finally get my hair dyed. the massive flush of estrogen will have other, beneficial side effects, as well.

if i notice continued symptoms of forced drugging, i will get to the lab on tuesday or wednesday. otherwise, i'm going to need to wait until what i just shocked my system with comes down a little.

if israel succeeds in occupying gaza (which it previously indicated it had no intention of doing) in response to the recognition of palestine by the cabot three, it overwhelmingly demonstrates that they are so irrelevant that they should be removed from the security council. the newspapers are claiming it's "symbolic". that's bullshit. the only thing it symbolizes is the final death of atlantic naval colonialism, and of anglo-french global supremacy.
ingested steroids are going to build up in the colon and bladder. they'll actually cycle through your system.

is the reason it's worse when i wake up simply because i haven't excreted anything when i'm asleep? when i'm awake, i'm going to excrete every few hours. when i'm asleep, it could be twice as long.

i hear them talking to me when i wake up, but maybe i'm faking causality. maybe i'm confusing myself by the correlation. maybe it's really 100% just the drugs.

i don't want this to be true. i'm sick of this. i don't want to have to move again. i want this to end and to get back to working on my art. i want them to fuck off and leave me alone.
i would expect that syria is on the brink of imploding like it never has before.

as violence breaks out across the country, please keep in mind that the capital is currently under the control of a group that is basically the same thing as isis. many of these groups taking up arms understand they have no choice but to fight to defend themselves from being slaughtered, and that they have a limited time window in which they can act before it's too late.

how would you react if your government was taken over by thugs of that sort?
i'm constantly shitting the steroids out. if i get a batch of diarrhea, it actually makes me feel better after. my diet is very high in fibre.

i have a fair amount of evidence suggesting somebody is sticking something in my rectum. i don't want to negate or walk away from that.

however, i've just spent some time looking into how steroids are metabolized, and a lot of it is done in the large intestine and colon. this document is very helpful.

if they're putting something in my food, they have a key and i need to file a t2 and get out.

the nazis are puppets of the turks. their facade is transparent.

if the kurds won't pledge allegiance to the caliphate, they'll be attacked.

pythagorean theory foreshadowed newtonian physics in defining a world where everything had an equal and opposite thing. it defined existence in terms of these pairs of quantities or qualities, called cosmic opposites. as such, it hypothesized the existence of a counter-earth, or antichthon, which counter-balanced the earth in it's orbit around the central fire. the pythagoreans did not believe the earth was the center of the universe, but rather that the sun and earth both orbited around a central fire. the antichthon was the opposite and reverse of the earth, like something out of a star trek episode.

canada and russia are cosmic opposites, mirror reflections through the axis of the north pole. we will have no choice but to take on an equally important role in global affairs, if we want to continue to exist at all.
canada doesn't have the infrastructure to make money spent on r & d worthwhile.

if the government wants to do something smart, i agree it should put a major focus on reversing the decline in our education system with the intent of eventually cranking up r & d funding.

but canada doesn't see itself as a global player, and really never has. until we change our mindset, we're going to be content finding a niche between great powers, rather than seek to become one ourselves. the thing is that climate change positions us extremely well and we essentially have the choice to become a great power or become a failed state. we can't sit on this vast a space without becoming a dominant power. 

in a lot of ways, we're the new russia. i just wish we'd stop hating them so much. we're going to walk into their global niche.

if you were a 20 year old kid manning a check point with a machine gun and some group of starving arabs was rushing at you, what would you do?

that shouldn't be what exists.
i want to repeat this.

israel is policing gaza with the military because gaza has no police. people are getting killed because that's not a proper role for conscripted soldiers.

the creation of a police force one way or the other needs to be strongly prioritized.
i understand that israel is reacting to crowds rushing distribution centres. they have to do something.

can't they use rubber bullets? shouldn't they be using riot police for crowd control, instead of conscripted soldiers that are given guns when they should be in school and are scared shitless?

and, can the palestinian people take some responsibility? can you organize yourselves? can you govern yourselves? do you even want to?
how is the bison?

i couldn't really taste it the first time, and i overcooked it this time. i'm using too many spices in the pan. it just came out like sloppy joe's.

next time, i'll just fry it in olive oil.
that 3% number will be revised downwards.

a lot.
due to the statistical difficulties in normalizing real gdp to inflation in real time in the face of hefty tariffs, the jobs numbers in the united states are a far better metric to understand the direction of the economy than gdp.

you won't really be able to understand q2 gdp numbers in the face of tariff inflation until you can properly calculate inflation, which won't be for a few quarters.
i haven't seen any normalized figure of recent american gdp.

anybody bringing the issue up would no doubt get fired.
gdp is a summation of all economic activity in an economy.

tariffs are a tax that increase prices.

therefore, by definition, tariffs increase gdp, without indicating any particular benefit to the economy.

in fact, any form of inflation increases gdp. that's why economists do things like normalize gdp to 1990 numbers.

any questions?
it is predictable that endless, rising tariffs are going to eventually create domestic unrest in canada.

there's better ways to retaliate than this.
canada might not have the same domestic constraints or considerations as the mexican government, but that doesn't make taxing it's own people any better of a policy.

we might not have separatist guerrilla forces operating here quite yet, but the 'freedom convoy' should have taught the canadian government that it cannot abuse it's own people endlessly. at some point, these right-wing movements join forces with indigenous groups, and then it doesn't look that different than mexico, after all.
i do think that canada should retaliate, but not by taxing it's own people.
the reason he hiked the tariffs is that we caved to pressure before. trump thinks kind of the same way that hamas does - if his tactics yield results, he increases them. this seems counter-intuitive to canadian negotiators, who expect a reasonable partner that's willing to make concessions. that's not how trump thinks. in trump's mind, he's proven that canada is weak, and can therefore be taken advantage of.

the mexicans have not caved to pressure. it's true that they haven't retaliated, but look at gdp per capita in mexico compared to canada. if the mexican government levied 20% taxes on american corn or beef, it might start a civil war. that's not what trump is reacting to. the mexicans haven't been as easily pushed around, so he's not pushing them around.

trump isn't looking for fights, he's looking for victims. he's identifying the easiest meat.

there's an old pink floyd song. it's one of my favourite records.

You got to be crazy, you gotta have a real need
Gotta sleep on your toes and when you're on the street
Got to be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed
Then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight
You got to strike when the moment is right without thinking
And after a while, you can work on points for style
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake
A certain look in the eye and an easy smile
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to
So that when they turn their backs on you
You'll get the chance to put the knife in

You gotta keep one eye
Looking over your shoulder
You know, it's going to get harder, harder and harder
As you get older
Yeah, and in the end you'll pack up, fly down south
Hide your head in the sand
Just another sad old man
All alone and dying of cancer

Got to admit that I'm a little bit confused
Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used
Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off
This creeping malaise
If I don't stand my own ground
How can I find my way out of this maze?
Deaf, dumb and blind, you just keep on pretending
That everyone's expendable and no one has a real friend
And it seems to you the thing to do
Would be to isolate the winner
Everything's done under the sun
But you believe at heart everyone's a killer


i've decided to move to dried dill and to add it to my other spices. 

fresh dill is good for cooking, but it has essentially no nutritional value. i should be using dried dill in salads, as it has a substantive amount of iron per tbsp.
i didn't post my quinoa recipe.

i do it like this.

- turn a burner on the stove on to full blast. highest setting. crank it to 11.
- measure a third a cup of quinoa and place it into a fine strainer. i use the basket from a broken coffee machine for this purpose. let it run under water for at least five minutes, moving it around every little while. the reason you rinse the quinoa is to remove the saponins, which may block the digestion of key nutrients.
- while the stove is preheating and the quinoa is rinsing, chop the following items and put it all into a big, serving bowl:

- one red pepper (or around 150 grams)
- one carrot (or around 110 grams)
- one beet
- 50 grams of broccoli florets
- one avocado
- two cloves of garlic
- one orange
- one lime

- when that is done, take the quinoa out of the strainer and put it into a sturdy pot
- add a tad more than 2/3 cups of water
- add a fair amount of frank's hot sauce. if you want to add other items to season, do it, but i just stick with the hot sauce.
- stir.
- put pot on stove and wait until it comes to a boil.
- when it's boiling, cover the pot.
- walk to your microwave and set it to 15 minutes.
- walk back to the stove and reduce the heat. i had a newer stove in my previous apartment, and i would set it to min. on my very old stove (70s) in this apartment, i set it to 3.

- while it is cooking, add the following to the bowl:

- a few strands of fresh dill
- 1 tbsp of paprika
- 1 tbsp of oregano
- 1 tbsp of sunflower seeds
- 1 tbsp of cayenne
- 1 tbsp of cumin
- a bunch of pepper
- 1 tbsp of hemp seeds
- 1 tbsp of nutritional yeast
- 10 slices of medium cheddar cheese
- a lot of ceasar dressing
- a lot of frank's hot sauce

- while you're getting used to your stove, check on the quinoa periodically to make sure it hasn't boiled all the water off. it's done when the water boils off. don't overcook.
- if there is still water after fifteen minutes, you didn't cook it at high enough temperature. that's ok. stir and let sit until water burns off.
- when it's done, remove from burner and let sit, covered, for five minutes.
- dump, hot, into bowl.

i eat the quinoa with a tall glass of fortified, sugar-free soy milk.

i did that twice yesterday with no substitutions. however, i'm now out of quinoa and have three bags of lentils. i'll be trying it with lentils as a sub for quinoa over the next week.

i believe that lentils are cooked the same way as quinoa (and rice), but i have no recollection of ever making or even ever eating lentils at all so i'll have to look into that.
this salted caramel coffee is a little too salty for my tastes. i'm not sure who'd be into this, but it's not me.

dumping the caffeinated instant coffee into a cup of already potent brewed hot coffee has also created an extremely powerful mixture that is making me a little oozy. the fact that this isn't that yummy aside, it's a little too much caffeine.

i'm going to put some water in it.
this article is a bit of a primer to get you up to date. i found it helpful.

it's really in the west's benefit to support continued decentralization in syria. we don't want a centralized islamist state in syria, we want to divide and conquer. from a leftist perspective, i also want to support the right of more liberal regions to self-determination, including the christian and alawite groups, which are not discussed in this article. 

the ideal outcome would be multiple autonomous regions, most of which are not islamist. if a couple get off the ground, it could help alter the culture in the area by giving more liberal voices a vehicle to organize and govern through.

the kurds have their problems, but they remain a model for self-governance in the region that is outside of the rubric of islamic fundamentalism. 

if the end result of this mess is that non-baathist secular arab nationalist forces are able to retake damascus and expel the islamists and set up a non-baathist secular arab nationalist democracy in a way that reunifies the country, maybe this wasn't so bad, and maybe this is how it had to happen.

but, we've been supporting the bad guys in syria for decades, and it's never too late to change sides.
there's a reason assad hung on so long against the odds, which were so stacked against him. he was hardly some kind of military dictator. he was a figurehead that was trained as an optometrist and only went back to syria because his brother, who was supposed to be the ruthless dictator, died before seizing power. the form of government in syria for the last 20 years has been a military junta, which assad was trying to convert into a european style democracy. both he and his wife spent their formative years in britain, and apparently liked the british form of government enough that they wanted to implement it in syria.

this isn't hypothetical. there were multiple referendums in syria on a new constitution that was meant to transition military rule into a democracy. this was what assad was actually doing, as leader of syria - trying to dismantle the junta.

the dominant opposition to democracy in syria, and the key entity fighting against assad, was saudi arabia. the saudis vehemently oppose any form of democracy in any arab state.

it's not exactly that the syrian people were in favour of the baath regime, so much as that they overwhelming stood with the form of government called "secular arab nationalism", which the saudis have been trying to get rid of for over 50 years. to our great shame and discredit, we have supported the saudis in their quest to wipe out democracy in the middle east.

assad hung on so long because the people of syria don't want to live in an islamic theocracy run by nazis governing the country out of the back of a koran, and this fascist government won't last long for that reason, not even with heavy turkish backing.

when an ideology is as unpopular as islamism is in syria, it simply can't govern.
western governments should be sending arms to these opposition groups fighting to overthrow the nazi coup, not sending aid to the nazis, themselves.

my own solidarity is certainly with those looking to overthrow the regime in damascus and reassert a secular state.

why are western governments talking with these nazis?

i wouldn't support this.

the kurds should seek to distance themselves from the nazis currently in control of damascus and instead seek regional integration with iraqi and iranian kurdish factions, or even with israel.

syria is a failed state that should be dismantled.

i actually strongly support this, and i don't think it's right-wing.

i think that telling jews they can't mumble at their own wall is right-wing. the liberal position should obviously be that everybody has equal rights to mumble at the wall, and any attempt to limit access should be seen as reflective of an extreme right-wing position.

but, this is the era of orwell, and all our language is backwards and confused.

i have avoided claiming that palestinian recognition is a victory for hamas. i think that's overly simplistic, and it ignores the reality that the plans or recognition are conditional on hamas no longer existing.

clearly, however, hamas itself thinks it's winning.

and that's a problem that should cause governments in canada and the uk to recalculate.

this morning was a pretty rough experience. however, i've doubled up on the suppressors and i'm feeling better. i can't test for viagra, but i caught the elevated testosterone. they may have recently been trying to drug me with viagra without testosterone, and it didn't work.

they woke me up around 9:30, and i spent all day in the shower before falling asleep in the evening. i need to finish the shower tonight and hopefully maybe get my hair dyed.

as mentioned, i had the bread with peanut butter on friday night and then didn't eat at home again until sunday morning. it didn't appear to make any difference, in terms of the drugging. i had a handful of marshmallows, two bananas and a chocolate bar after the blood test and then passed out last night before eating. i actually slept well last night, but slept poorly this morning. i slept well again tonight.

what i'm determining over the next few days is whether i think the drugs are in my food. if the drugs are in my food, i have a case of illegal entry and need to fie a lawsuit and plan to move. i don't think that's the case, but i need to more rigorously rule it out.

i actually think it's in the pot. there was somebody smoking a large amount of pot outside my window last night, and i think that's what the source was for this morning. i'm also concerned somebody might be entering through my window and drugging me by inserting something in my anus, which would be utterly psychotic, but it seems to be what's happening.

i have now eaten the marshmallows and the crispy crunches. the next thing to put in my coffee is a box of salted caramel iced latte instant coffee. this is a coffee product itself, but instead of making it with water or milk, i'm going to make it with coffee.

well, i should have one with water to see what it's like by itself, but i'm trying the first one with coffee.

i'll need to make some more pasta tonight as well.

my head is splitting. my body is in chaos. this isn't supposed to be what's happening. i'm supposed to be post-operative and rapidly finishing my transition, not fighting with some stupid religious idiots.

sounds like somebody needed horse blood for a ritual.

i am again using my blog as a word processor.

i recently woke up and experienced the effects of being drugged on thursday, july 31. i believe i was drugged over the last weekend. there were a few events that i documented with police, including waking up with my scrotum apparently having been swabbed, which i've experienced before.

i want to be clear that police have asked me for these results several times over several years. i'm empirically driven and have understood why, but was unable to get them until now. now that i have the results, and they uphold my claims, they won't accept them. it's both curious and suspicious and if this is a block being erected in front of me on my path to bringing these criminals to justice, i'm going to need to ram through it as necessary. i have no choice but to be as aggressive as possible.

i received my second blood test results, and they are clearly demonstrating my concerns are valid. the first test picked up secondary markers, and was taken too late after being drugged to catch direct markers. the second test was still a day late but picked up direct markers that are more or less exactly what i was expecting. unfortunately.

i actually hoped to prove myself wrong. i've instead proven myself right.

next time, i will go on the day of being drugged. i expect it will capture the very high testosterone result i've been expecting to catch for months.

i doubled up on the t-blockers before i went to bed tonight and am feeling better. i may need to get in the habit of taking t-blockers before i go to sleep in order to block their "therapy".

i need to be clear: i have no testicles. testosterone is not created by magic pixies swimming in your blood, waiving a wand. if you don't have balls, you don't have testosterone. it's that simple.

(unless, maybe, you have cancer. i can and should rule that out, but it's remote, given all of the other tests i've been doing. if i do happen to have cancer, that doesn't explain the conversations i've had with my harassers, who are real enough to talk to me on a regular basis.)

there is no way for my body to manufacture it's own testosterone in any substantive quantity. if the test picks testosterone spikes up, i am necessarily being drugged. my body cannot make it. and you don't eat it in food, you have to make it.

the following results are atypical of my blood chemistry and indicate i'm being drugged with male hormones against my will. 

RBC COUNT 4.42 3.7 - 5 X E12/L  (higher than normal, suggests elevated testosterone)
HEMOGLOBIN 142 115 - 150 g/L   (higher than normal, suggests elevated testosterone)
CORTISOL LATE DAY 231 nmol/L  (this is very high. it should be less than 100.)
TESTOSTERONE 1.1 0 - 1.8 nmol/L  (i never, ever, ever test higher than 0.5. this is catching it on the way out, after having already hiked my hemoglobin. i'm sure it would have been higher the day before. try #3 will react to this.)

URINE CREATININE Above 22.02 5 - 16 mmol/L (not as high, still high)
URINE ALBUMIN Above 43 0 - 20 mg/L  (still high)
GFR - 78 for female, about 105 for male. as stated previously, there's no obvious way to calculate this. 

creatinine in urine suggests a loss in muscle mass. where is this muscle mass coming from?

lest anybody question the point, i'll clarify that i am taking my meds:
PROGESTERONE 73.8 nmol/L
ESTRADIOL 794 pmol/L
PROLACTIN 54.38 ug/L

those are levels consistent with pregnant women. they're quite high, actually. higher than usual.

further, suppressed fsh and lh indicate i'm not producing my own testosterone. if i were generating my own testosterone, these results would be much higher:
FSH 0.3 IU/L
LH <0.2 IU/L

these results indicate that 

1) my testosterone is much higher than normal, both directly and indirectly
2) that testosterone was introduced and not generated, which was obvious anyways, because i'm castrated.

i was not able to find a lab that would measure testosterone in urine that was open on aug 2nd. i haven't called lifelabs, who were closed, yet. this test might not be available in ontario. this was intended to be the key test. the implication is that it would be higher than would be expected, but i could not get it tested. i don't want to fabricate results.

the first result was a monday. this result was a saturday. the next result will need to be on a friday, and then i'll try on a thursday that i think i've been drugged. they always start harassing me on wednesdays or thursdays, after drugging me shortly before then.

this is step one, and it's the second of what i expect will be three or four tries to catch it. step two is getting the information to police and forcing them to react in a way that they clearly don't want to, but are going to have to in order to uphold the law, whether they like it or not. the police are going to be forced to make these arrests, eventually. i'm a victim of third degree rape, of stalking and of conversion therapy, and i want the perpetrators to be indicted for it. 

i understand that this is insane. you don't have to tell me this is insane; i'm the one living it. the evidence is unfolding as i expected it would and police need to react appropriately. it is correct to observe that this is insane, but it is what it is.

the mystery as to who is doing this has advanced somewhat.

in recent days, i've become aware of the possibility that it may be police that are drugging me. in truth, i've realized this as a possibility for a while. i have had conflict with the local muslim community because i've stood up for the values of secularism and because i don't care if they like my lifestyle choices or not. they have targeted me, and they are a powerful lobby group in this area, with substantial influence on city council and at city hall. they get what they want because they pay for it. if that is the case, as i believe it is, i'm going to need to get some kind of investigation launched, into the windsor police's infiltration by the local muslim cult groups, perhaps by the rcmp. there are a substantial number of muslim police officers in the windsor police force, and they treat me discernibly differently than officers of non-italian european ancestry do. it's a very noticeable difference; the white officers tend to take me seriously to the limited point that i've been able to advance my argument, are sympathetic and want to provide suggestions as to the evidence they need to form reasonable grounds while the muslim officers are overwhelmingly transphobic and consistently treat me like i'm some kind of pervert or sexual deviant that is getting what i deserve and should be arrested for resisting it. given the negative way that religions like islam treat any break from heteronormativity, i think it's important that the windsor police try to minimize contact between muslim police officers (who show up to work without grooming themselves, and are consequently hard to take seriously or respect) and both white and not white queer people, as there's a severe power imbalance that has the potential to lead to conservative muslim officers persecuting minorities in canada, as happens regularly in the muslim world, and which i presume nobody except them wants. i don't yet have an oiprd complaint to make, but i would request this be investigated by a white officer, and not by a muslim. the muslim officers can police their own, i guess, but i don't want to be oppressed by conservative muslim officers, as i'm pushing back against an attack on me by the right-wing muslim community and because islam is a religion and therefore a mind control cult like all other religions, i would expect muslim officers to prioritize their allegiance to their cult over their allegiance to secular law and the state, which is a problem that needs to be recognized and taken seriously. i might have to launch some kind of private prosecution, but i'm blocked by my inability to determine the identity of the stalkers. i need police to step in to figure out who they are.

i ran a title search on the land parcel, which cost me $40. it indicates no changes in land ownership have occurred since 2016. this rules out the hypothesis that the land was recently purchased by the previous owners, which was a reasonably good guess that the evidence didn't uphold, but that just makes the identity of the stalkers that much more mysterious. i know there's three people - a husky male that seems to be arabic, a person that is female-identifying and somebody that sounds like a younger male. they are currently spending a lot of time in the unit directly below me. i don't know if they are guests of the tenants or if the property management is in some way involved. it doesn't rule out the possibility that the female identifying voice is one of the previous owners, and the previous owners were clearly at least aware of what was going on in the previous space.

i am left with three hypothesis as to how i'm being drugged. one is that i'm being injected with something in my anus by somebody that is periodically getting in here somehow, and i do have a fair amount of circumstantial evidence upholding this. i keep going back to this because it's where the evidence is. the second is that somebody is drugging my food, and if that is the case they would require a key to enter the apartment or be able to get in through the window. i have noticed signs of tampering around the windows. i think this is actually the least likely. the third hypothesis is that i'm breathing something in and that this may be being masked by marijuana use in the building. i have noticed weird odours that give me brutal hemiplegic headaches with major auras for a long period of time, both here and in the previous apartment. i have actually documented this. while smoking or burning steroids would no doubt be an unusual route of administration, i want to point out that there are nasal testosterone sprays on the market and that nasal administration is consequently medically well-explored:

i need to demonstrate i'm being drugged, first. i will need to figure out how and why after, and i'll need the cops to do that investigation. i actually don't know these answers with any clarity, and have only been able to come up with suggestions. based on what they've told me, the primary motivation is to apply their religious laws on me.

some of the recipients of this report have reacted by calling the police, which is absurd. i'm not breaking any laws by serving you with a document and suggestions that i am are legally incoherent and frivolous. however, given that the police are indicating that they do not want to properly investigate, and whether it is because they are involved or just due to a right-wing/conservative bias on the force, i'm actually left in the position where requesting police seek (and fail to obtain) a warrant is probably the fastest way i'm going to get this in front of a judge. i can't be intimidated by muslim police officers into not defending myself against an attack by the muslim community. i would consequently request that the police go ahead and put all of these emails in front of a judge, with the further request that the justice determine how best to launch an investigation into what is going on, and figure out the identity of my stalkers, who will not stop harassing me until they are arrested.

it should be blatantly obvious why muslim groups target the queer pride festival and seek to shut it down.

how are so many people so absurdly naive?
i don't identify as queer. i'm a heterosexual transgendered female. i don't have gay friends, and broadly don't like gay people.

however, it seems to me that if the queer pride movement is going to be discussing palestine at all, it ought to be drawing attention to the criminality of homosexuality in palestine. this is not a hamas thing, it's just as illegal to be gay in the west bank as it is in the gaza strip.

and people get severely punished for it. one of the punishments for "sodomy" in islamic law is being thrown off a building. it does happen.

i'm just constantly baffled by the ignorance. these people apparently don't even know that islamic law criminalizes homosexual behaviour. it's not even doublethink. it's just rank lack of understanding.

if canada puts retaliatory tariffs on auto parts and construction materials (like steel and aluminum), it's just making a bad situation worse. it's dumb.

export taxes are a far better idea, to raise revenue.
i just ate the rest of the peanut butter and the rest of the white bread, in four slices, total.
the headache started a few hours ago, which i suspect means it's mostly run it's course.

i don't know what they imagine they're doing, but what they're actually doing is making me miserable and sick.
i avoided eating last night and tried to sleep it off today and it didn't make much of a difference. i've been defecating in small amounts all day and that has made a difference.

i must be breathing something in.

i will get tested soon. i just wanted to see if not eating made any difference over the course of a day, and it didn't.

this will wear off like all of the other times, but i need to get to the blood lab at the right time to get it.
it strikes me as more likely that epstein may have been killed, but motives may not be what is obvious to most.

you know who is going to love this is the chinese.

i'm pretty well read in history, and europe has had some crazy dictators, but the idea of firing the statistician is outside of the realm of what you expect from corrupt european despots and is rather very chinese.

i want to propose that canadians should revolt against these counter-tariffs and refuse to pay them.

throw the counter-tariffs in the bay of fundy. this is bullshit.

i don't want to call it a priapasm, because it didn't quite work. in a binary, limp v erect, i was still limp. it never got air. but it lasted 15 hours, it made me exhausted and depressed and i was just unlimp enough and experiencing other symptoms enough to know it was chemical.

this is apparently a side effect of crack-cocaine use and may actually suggest i was breathing in second-hand crack cocaine from my neighbours. 

let me see how i feel over the next few hours.
this was a difficult day. the severely mentally ill religious freaks drugged me again. i was forced to sleep it off.

i have blood req #2 ready to go and i'll be out to get tested fairly soon. at least the headaches have stopped. what can i do but keep at it? as has been the case previously, the symptoms lifted when i defecated tonight, and seem to have been prolonged by the change in weather making me a little more constipated. i mean, it's nothing clinical, it's just a little slower; that seems to consistently be the factor. as soon as i shit it out, it's gone. it's almost as though somebody is sticking some kind of dissolving steroid in my ass, and the faster i shit it out, the less bad it is. what i need to do is actually catch it in the system or on the way out. i need to be able to say "look, somebody put these drugs in my body, here's proof", and then get to figuring out how they did it.

when the temperature came down last night, i decided to take a shower to wash my hair, with the plan to dye it today, but that's going to need to be put off again for a few more days. i microwaved a large piece of that frozen kfc chicken (it may have been a bucket put in a freezer bag) to eat with my meds, to start. i didn't get out of the shower until later, and didn't sit down to eat until 6:00. i fell asleep around 7:00, and they woke me up around 8:00.

it was different this time. when they have drugged me previously, they succeeded in making me erect for roughly five seconds before it dissipated. i am concluding that they drugged me with steroids on these occasions, as i am castrated and take t-blockers. this is an impossible event, unless somebody gave me enough steroids to overpower the t-blockers, at least for an hour, and replace the testosterone i can no longer produce on my own. these erections have been very short and very painful, but they have been actual erections. they've been a rush of hormones that instantly caves and have no stimulus and are not reflective of arousal or in any way sexual in nature. they really just last a few seconds and dissipate very fast, within ten seconds. a unpleasant and at times painful sensation will follow for a few hours, but i do not expect that these short experiences, as unpleasant as they are, would in any way suggest i'd be able to become erect on arousal (i voluntarily castrated myself. i don't want that to happen.), even for those five seconds. even after these events, i remained fully impotent and completely limp upon conscious awakeness, which is what i want.

what happened this morning was the opposite. i woke up around 8:00 to the need to urinate, completely limp, as i should be. there was no sign of drugging at the time. it was while i was urinating that i started to become erect and when i went back to bed that i realized something was off. this was the kind of 60% limp "erection" that you expect an impotent person to have. it never got air, but it started. i was not interested, and would never be interested, i was just tired and wanted to go back to sleep. i might have even ignored it, if it wasn't for that burning sensation. it hurt.

i ended up sitting in the shower for another hour, tried to sleep again for a few more hours, went back to sleep until around 14:00, woke up and took another shower, ate some pb & jam open bread slices and went back to sleep around 18:00. i woke up around midnight, still 30% erect and 60% limp, still no air, still disinterested. as mentioned, it was when i defecated that it passed. i feel better now.

this doesn't seem like it was steroids. it seems like somebody tried to drug me with viagra, and it wasn't enough to actually work. it was just enough to make me tired and depressed. 

food seems like a more obvious source than getting injected in my ass, even if the latter is where all of the evidence is, but that doesn't make sense to me. was something sitting in my large intestine and being absorbed, until i pushed it out? i didn't get a good look and maybe should have, but it was very much a beets poop. a beet is an ingredient in the pasta, in the guac and the quinoa, so i've been eating one beet every day for weeks. they're high in betaine, iron and b9.  i make an attempt to get a lot of betaine.

if they drugged my food, it's probably the hot sauce, and i need to catch it in the blood results, so i need to keep eating it. if they put something in my ass, i sent them an email threatening to withhold rent if it happens again.

i'm toying with the best response. do i get tested right away? if they drugged my ass, i should, but i'm having difficulty figuring out when. there was an even a few days ago where i woke up feeling swabbed, but it was humid out. if they put it in my food, it's going to get worse and i should wait until it peaks.

i need to think it through a bit over the next few hours.

i cooked the bison in a frying pan with olive oil, paprika, oregano, cayenne and cumin. the spices increased the weight back to 50 g. what i did, and what i'm going to do, is eat the 50 g of bison (raw) with a small 30 gram ish  piece of kfc chicken, and not double up like i said before.

canada's position on the palestine thing is not the same as the channel consensus, and it would appear to be unlikely that recognition will come from ottawa. the likelihood of the pa being able to organize elections without hamas is pretty slim, which is the point i'm making. what state is this? the polls i've seen have hamas ahead in the west bank, even.

the canadian position is very canadian, if you're canadian - it's recognition if necessary, but not necessarily recognition. 

there will be no recognition and the pm knows that, but it lets him avoid recognition while supporting it abstractly. that sounds good if you're appealing to a base, but such a base doesn't exist in canada, and both the opposition and donald trump are already chomping at the bit.

i think the united states should be strongly pushing for elections in the west bank and tying it to funding. there's actually potential for common ground here, in opposition to the europeans.
the media blames it on israel, and israel blames it on hamas.

hamas blames it on egypt. 

egypt does have a lot of responsibility, broadly.

there's only a few days left, but i think canada needs to find as many women as it can and put them on this trump file, because that's what he's doing to us. we thought we needed an economics whiz to cut through this. what we need is an army of high maintenance women.  

i made this mistake, too.

what trump is doing to us is not art of the deal, it's acting like a bitch and then forcing us to figure out what's wrong. he's wife-ing out on us. 

we can't even figure out what he wants. we need more women on this. quickly.

well, that's the relationship we have with the states. we're partners. we fight and make up.

right now, trump is in a mood and acting like a bitch and we need to figure out what's wrong. it's about taxes. but what does he want? get the women studying it.
it turns out that hamburger shrinks when you fry it. i didn't even realize that. it makes sense. salami doesn't shrink. i'm just not used to cooking with raw meat.

so, these 50 g cups are only going to be like 30 g after they're cooked.

there are 9 cups. let me try the lone one tonight, just to make sure i even like it, and then move to two cups, that is 100 g raw, next time. 100 g raw should be around 60 g cooked, i think.
do you know what the liberal party really needs on palestine?

a white paper.

remember those? they should bring those back.
cutting down on cross-border shopping might be the kind of thing we can take to the americans to get them what they actually want, instead of these tariffs on our goods.

if they actually hold elections, and you can actually tell me where palestine is on a map, and it actually exists, i would have little opposition to recognizing it.

but i don't think that will happen by september, or probably ever at all.

hey, i'm indigenous. i'm not wasting the fucking buffalo. i will eventually eat through this, and it will be gone, and i'm not taking responsibility for that.
i've completed splitting my ground bison into 50 g (ish) chunks. it wasn't too messy.

- i had 12 single use apple sauce containers and a number of sandwich bags. i needed 9 of each. i put these on the counter beside a food scale i use daily. the containers were about 5 g.
- the bison was in a shrink wrap package, in a sealable cumin bag, in a tupperware container, in the fridge. i took this out and put it in the sink
- i put on latex gloves
- i opened the sealable bag, took the bison out and opened it with a pair of scissors.
- i then moved over 50 g of meat into each of the containers using my gloved hands and put them aside on the counter.
- when i was done, i took the gloves off and put them in the sealable bag and put it in the freezer. that will be a garbage bag over the next few weeks.
- i put each of the apple sauce containers in a sandwich bag and put each one in the freezer, except one, which i put at the back of the fridge
- my hands were not bloody or dirty at all, but i did wash over everything with anti-bacterial soap and then lysoled the counter. i'm going to do dishes shortly.

i was going to have quinoa tonight, but i don't want to leave this in the back of the fridge, so i'm having pasta again tonight and quinoa tomorrow. i will eventually run out of quinoa and move to the lentils.

this is nine 50 gram servings, so it's going to take me a few weeks to get through it. it looks to me like i'll want to take each cup out the night before and give it around 20 hoursish to thaw.

i'm just going to fry it up like i would the salami. bison is supposed to be "lean", but i don't even know what that means. i hope it's not too chewy. it doesn't look like it would be.
in addition to raising revenue, there are also a number of items that the united states has decided it wants to manufacture itself, including some drugs and some minerals.

that, like the tax revenue, really has nothing to do with any sort of economic theory. it's an intentional attempt to drive costs up to incentivize local production for that end in itself, at the purposeful expense of profit maximization.

it will lead lead to lower consumption and higher costs, but they're doing that on purpose. they want that.

what can we say to that? we need to find a new market.

however, the americans should realize that if they're going to intentionally block imports of goods like copper, then they should accept our decision to keep their milk out because we don't like their use of hormones. they should see that as a concession.

good.

there's all kinds of important things the democrats could be focusing on right now, and all they want to do is run a tabloid attack on the president. schumer should get a column in the national enquirer.

there's not a shred of evidence tying donald trump to any sort of pedophilia. it's pure tabloid muck and specious conspiracy nonsense.
do the democrats have nothing better to do than feed into late night comedy programs?

are they trying to run the country, or are they auditioning to host the daily show?

this is the problem with the democrats in recent years. they're not a political party anymore. they're not interested in policies and platforms. they just want to get clicks on tiktok, and they think the party with the most shares wins, like some twisted sequel to the social network.

it's a ragtag group of second-rate comedians and b-list actors. they're less popular than the republicans.

they don't make it like they used to.
when i was a kid, i went to meet a guitar buddy of mine amongst a group of neighbourhood riff-raff, some of whom i went to school with, playing ball hockey on the road, as young people do in canada. i'm not a hockey fan; i have no memory of playing hockey, of any sort. i can't skate.

the kids had hit a seagull with a tennis ball extremely hard. it was bleeding profusely. it was twitching. there were brains all over the road.

they didn't know what to do.

i ripped one of the hockey sticks out of one their hands and went and sawed the head of the bird off. it stopped twitching. 

then i went and smoked and joint and played guitar in a dank basement for a few hours.
this may be true for this specific example, but i'm not going to spend time fact checking and i don't think it matters.:

i'm not here to challenge the premise that a genocide is occurring, in slow motion. i'm not here to prop up the israeli state. the genocide in slow motion is something i've been arguing for 20 years. my position in recent years, since oct 7, is that israel should speed it up to get it over with and move on, because it's inevitable that the genocide will finish and the world will be better off when it finally does. dragging this out isn't fun. it's not something to revel in or take pride over, it's just necessary because it's inevitable. you should approach it like pontius pilate, without the woo. it is primarily israel that is slowing it down and stopping it from finishing, right now. they won't do it - they won't do it under netanyahu. 

they might have done it under sharon. not bibi. he won't do it. his hands are tied. he's actually stuck.

but, while israel is the dominant factor preventing this genocide from finishing, it's not the sole or even primary cause.

the reality is that gaza is a developing country. it has no economy, and impossible unemployment levels. those impossible unemployment levels make the premise of statehood ridiculous. gaza is under siege by egypt, and has been for a long time, longer than the war with israel. the egyptians screen aid from coming in. the aid gets stolen by a corrupt political system. the arab family model is problematic and needs direction from family planning agencies; they have too many children, they can't support them and the weakest die. this is cultural and normal, and ancient. at least they don't sacrifice the weak ones to the harvest anymore, and they did - there's a story in the bible written to teach them not to.

the region is not very fertile. low crop yields are not unusual. there are other areas in the region reliant on food imports that have less instability and that can outcompete gaza.

this is complex. there are natural causes and artificial causes. some of the artificial causes are local, some are international. a very small amount of this can be blamed directly on israel but, as mentioned, israel is also the factor that is preventing it from being even worse.

it's easier to blame the jews, and we're conditioned to blame the jews, so we do. if the facts supported that overly simplistic analysis, i would at least acknowledge it. even if i supported it. i don't have any interest in christian morality and i'm not afraid to poke holes in the eyes of christian values. if the facts supported it, i might argue that the jews are responsible for the genocide and they should finish the job.

the facts just aren't there.

the facts are clear that the issue is complicated and that while the jews do contribute nominally, they're also the most important factor keeping palestinians alive.
this is really not acceptable and shouldn't be accepted by the rest of the world.

canadians are weird when it comes to temperature.

most places in the world think 30 degrees is a nice day and -10 is an emergency. in canada, -10 is a nice day and 30 degrees is an emergency.

the climate has already changed and we need to readjust our metrics so that they are more normal. it's been 30+ degrees here almost every day since mid june, and that's not some kind of emergency, it's just summer. yet, we send out heat warnings at 30 degrees. that's ridiculous. we should be happy we're getting nice weather like the rest of the world does when it's 30 degrees.

heat warnings should not be sent until there's three days in a row above 35 degrees.

this shift in mindset will normalize our perceptions about heat so they are more in line with the rest of the world, and re-establish a heat event as something rare, rather than just normal summer weather, which we should be enjoying, not complaining about.
the fed should be trying to stimulate the economy with a giant rate cut and not pretending it can slow down tariff-generated inflation.
yeah, i know.

that arnold palmer bit's been beaten off like a dead horse.
it's kfc. but, apparently, kfc doesn't pre-cook, so it must have been kfc off the rack.

i wish i had realized that, i wouldn't have frozen it.

it's frozen, now. so, i'll take it out in 50-75 g chunks for pasta.
i assumed this chicken was precooked because it was battered. then i googled it, and apparently that's a bad assumption. my ignorance is overwhelming. 

let me check.

(swedish chef sounds)

i have returned!

it's cooked.  i can just zap this.
Today, a staggering 87 percent of Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza believe that the PA is corrupt, 78 percent want Abbas to resign, and 62 percent believe that the PA is a liability.

the palestinian authority, like any corrupt political entity, represents it's donors.

it's donors are gulf elites. it works to advance their interests.

that's what happened yesterday, and it needs to be dismantled, not upheld.
i have a 454 g slab of bison meat that's been in the freezer since july 9th. at around 20:30 last night, i put it in a sealable plastic bag that was initially used to package ground cumin and put the bag in a tupperware container and put it in the fridge, with the intent of breaking it into nine 50 g portions, each placed in a used single use apple sauce container and a sandwich bag, and put back in the freezer.

i don't know much about this because i very rarely (like, never) cook with raw meat. the little meat i eat is always something precooked or pre-pepared, liked salami or chicken balls. they gave me this slab of what is basically bison hamburger. i'd have never have bought this. but my understanding is that i don't want to let this thaw too much, or it becomes a food poisoning risk. i want to wait until it's just soft enough to break into portions and put it right back in the freezer, then take it back out one at a time as i need it.

they also gave me a pile of chicken breast, but i shouldn't have to portion it like this, i can just take out what i need to when i need it.

unfortunately, it's still frozen harder than arnold palmer upon noticing that he's being eyed by donald trump. it's not going to thaw by 6:00 am, which is when i need to clean up, at the latest.

so, i'm going to need to put the bison meat off for a few days, then. in addition to the chicken breasts, they also gave me some pre-cooked battered chicken. it smells like kfc, and it might be, although there's a number of kfc-like competitors recently, and i couldn't tell the difference. i can't remember the last time i ate something at kfc and i don't think i've ever eaten at popeye's or any of the other more recent chicken joints.

i'm going to need to go with a couple of chopped pieces of that, instead.
the problem was that joe biden wanted to turn the clocks back to the oslo accords. biden has this problem on virtually every foreign policy file, he just wants to undo whatever happened recently and make it the way it used to be. he doesn't adjust to new facts, he doesn't adapt, he doesn't change.

macron appears to want to bring sleepy joe back.

and here we are.
it's not intellectually honest to claim that you're standing up for an oppressed group, whatever you think of that designation, and then assign representation to that group to an entity that is at war with it.

the palestinian authority is at war with it's own people and has been for almost 20 years. it does not represent the palestinian people. it is the group that is most responsible for the oppression of the palestinian people, and the entity that most needs to be ejected from the equation in order to arrive at a real solution.

if you were honest about what's in front of you, and actually concerned about what you claim you are concerned about, you would realize that and act on that.

there needs to be an election in the west bank. yesterday. that election is being postponed and has been being postponed for 16 years because the palestinian authority knows it's unpopular and will lose. it's a corrupt, fascist dictatorship. the first order of business needs to be getting rid of it, not handing it control of a state.
some religious muslims will certainly come here and look around and deduce that they don't belong here.

that's a correct deduction.

they're right - they don't.

their options are to change or to leave. the society isn't going to adjust for them.
well, i'm sorry lady, but a large percentage of canadians don't agree with you on this, so if it makes you feel like you don't belong, you'd better go ahead and fuck off back where you came from.

mr. trump,

after analyzing the situation carefully, i believe your reaction to the agreement signed yesterday should be to give the palestinian authority 30 days to schedule immediate elections, or have all funding immediately withdrawn.
