January 6, 2024 - The train wasn’t scheduled for another 20 minutes, so I had a chance to contemplate the official sign on the door of the huge elevator leading to the platform. It said that only four people are allowed in because we must all practice social distancing. There was a helpful map of the interior of the elevator with stick figures telling people exactly where to stand.

The world has literally become an insane asylum, where basic values have been turned upside down, wrong has become right, and lies have become truth.

In today’s world, almost all governments are acting like dictators, viewing their citizens as subjects who must obey the despotic edicts of frequently unelected individuals who seek to rule the world, or at least their small portion of it.

SAN FRANCISCO, Kalifornia (PNN) - December 31, 2023 - Have you noticed a charge on one of your cards that you can’t explain? If so, you may be a victim of one of the “tap-to-pay” terminals that are being installed all over the nation.

The television commercials that promote RFID technology that allows us to pay just by tapping a card are designed to make us feel warm and fuzzy about this new method of conducting transactions, but it turns out that this technology is not nearly as secure as most of us thought.

LONDON, England (PNN) - December 30, 2023 - We’ve seen a lot of problems with terrorist pig thug cops in this country over the last few years. Or perhaps I should say that the problem is political, with the effect on terrorist pig thug cops.

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (PNN) - December 29, 2023 - In a scene that is probably a small taste of what is to come, socialist activists and workers unions carrying images of Che Guevara and Eva Peron converged on Buenos Aires to protest Javier Milei’s impending “austerity” cuts. The cuts are a part of Milei’s sweeping economic measures that will erase or rewrite over 300 rules regulating and restricting private enterprise within the nation.

December 25, 2023 - In World War I, as happens to be true in most Amerikan wars, the Christian church leadership joined in the patriotic fervor with very un-Christ-like, nationalistic and
racial/religious domination stances. Astonishingly, religious leaders on every side of the conflict truly believed that God was on their particular side; and so the pulpits all over Europe, including British, Scottish, French, Belgian, German, Austrian, Hungarian, Russian and Italian reverberated with flag-waving fervor, with clear messages to their doomed warrior-sons that it was their God-given Christian duty to march off to kill the equally brain-washed young
Christian soldier enemies, who were also certain that God was on their side.

AUSTIN, Texas (PNN) - December 26, 2023 - A Tesla engineer was attacked by a robot during a brutal and bloody malfunction at the company’s Giga Texas factory near Austin.

Two witnesses watched in horror as their fellow employee was attacked by the machine designed to grab and move freshly cast aluminum car parts.

December 20, 2023 - The Postal Service is selling a new stamp with the word “FREEDOM” prominently displayed on it. As I purchased a roll of the stamps, it reminded me of my favorite quotation: “None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free” by
Johann Goethe.

That quotation presents one of the big challenges we face in achieving a genuinely free society. When people are convinced that they are free, they have no incentive to strive for freedom. Why would they? They “know” that they already are free.

Say it could pave the way for conversations with aliens.

JUNEAU, Alaska (PNN) - December 18, 2023 - It might sound like a scene out of Avatar: The Way of Water.

But scientists claim it's now possible to have a conversation with a whale, following a 20-minute chat with a humpback whale in Southeast Alaska.
