From The Desk Of Tim Ozman 12/27/21: Space Cowboys VS Space Commies

The cowboy hat Jeff Bezo wore to space is a visual metaphor about space being the new Wild West. The manner in which the billionaires are exploiting space has gone from egregious and privileged to dangerous and disruptive. For example, Imperator Elon Musk's CubeSats endangered the Chinese space station. China complained that twice its space station was forced to take evasive action to dodge CubeSats from Musk's Starlink program. Some on Weibo(the Chinese Twitter) are describing the CubeSats as "American space warfare weapons."  This cannot be separated from the ongoing Space Wars that began earlier this year when China allowed a large piece of junk to endanger anyone between 42 degrees latitudes north and south. This was a booster from the launch which put the first module of their space station into orbit.  The space drama above follows three instances of the ISS dodging space junk with evasive maneuvers. This, however, is different in that it's a capitalist, the

France’s first lady  Brigette Macron is taking legal action against online conspiracy theorists claiming she’s transgender. This is similar to what happened to Michelle Obama during the  2016 election. This is not your typical “right-wing” conspiracy theory. These sorts of allegations are predicated on the notion that the Illuminati is run by secret societies engaging in alchemical magic that involves inverting everything in the world in order to keep the masses dumbfounded, confused, and cognitively dissonant.   I’m not a believer in this particular notion. Not all the way anyway. I don’t have enough information or evidence to stand by firm conclusions on these matters. Not yet anyway. However, I think it should be pointed out that the strangeness in high places isn’t new. The new normal isn’t new. It’s just new to those that weren’t already appraised of how Alice in Wonderland-y this place is. Take for example the story of Boris Johnson’s wife, 33-year-old Carrie Johnson, who was jus

From The Desk Of Tim Ozman: “The Beast Is Yet To Come” 12/12/21

The United Nations has placed a giant statue in New York that resembles an end-times "beast" from the New Testament's book of Revelation. It's a colorful lion with eagle wings and a menacing disposition that aligns with Revelation 13:1 "It was like a leopard, with feet like the feet of a bear, and had a mouth like a lion. One of its heads had a mortal wound which healed itself, causing people to wonder at it and follow it."   This ties in neatly with the Qanon Qultists expectation of the Bible’s Beast to arrive, albeit a month late, and they were expecting it to arrive in Dallas. Although their "beast" is the resurrected JFK with his miraculously healed head wound, the arrival of the statue might be taken as a sign. Since Q began dropping hints and clues about the arrival of The Storm, the Q-religionists (because it's too large to qualify as a mere cult) have made use of the hashtag #TBIYTC. This initialism stands for The Best Is Yet To Come,
