Day of Samhain 2020

Day of Samhain has been officially mummified. Tomorrow, however, is the first day of the “holiday season” and the Saturnalia shopping mania. Three holidays are upcoming in the next two months, usually accompanied by family gatherings, parties, and other festivities. Then, there’s the “Black Friday” spectacle, the “slugfest” of rampant consumerism. How will those events play out against the backdrop of “super-duper corona”? Will the rank-and-file peons be too overcome by the fear of death and blindly comply with the Draconian mandates of the Fascists?

The mayor of Honolulu announced that there will be Fascist roadblocks for sobriety testing all throughout the “holiday season.” Next up ... prohibition?

Addendum: Bars and nightclubs remain closed until “Tier 4,” whenever that may be. Curiously, “strip clubs” have reopened already. Well, lots of young hotties were able to return to work as “lap dancers,” eh? Perhaps the mayor of Honolulu is lurking in the audience with his face mask on? Baha! Ha! Ha! Haaa!

Net Dumpster

The Net is continuing to degenerate into a form of sludge previously unimaginable. The current (s)election cycle in empire has truly exposed the level of duplicity and censorship in the so-called “mainstream media.” So much so, that the number of personal reference sources has dwindled even further than the last disclosure:

• Sputnik International
• RT
• PressTV

Opinions crafted by Paul Craig Roberts, and Michael Hudson are often perused as well.

The Net is essentially a “cyber” garbage dumpster. Its “useful” purposes revolve around social media (also a ubiquitous purveyor of “fake news”), shopping, propaganda, and pornography.

The aforementioned summary, of course, was of primary consideration in reviewing the future of personal cellular service. Over the past few weeks, there was some temptation to replace the existing (limited) pre-paid wireless plan with an “unlimited” one. However, what is the point?

The only possible usage of “unlimited” data would be pornography since the other venues have been totally discredited. Yet, the idea of lying around and “fapping” to on-line streaming pornography is extremely ludicrous given the creeping geriatric impotence of the Vienna Sausage. And, even then, current pornography vendors produce incredibly repetitive and formulaic content, much like the crappy “mainstream” cinematic releases. So boring.

Thus, the only prudent choice for a pre-paid wireless plan, would be anything equivalent to the current plan but less costly. Tello still meets the requirements. However, as previously discussed in Notes, the acquisition of Sprint® by T-Mobile® would affect MVNOs like Tello. And, just in the past few weeks, Tello has announced that the transition will take place before the end of the year. New SIM cards will issued as Tello becomes a T-Mobile® MVNO.

There is no reason for than 5GB of data allocation each month. There is no streaming of any kind because all vendors include excessive advertising. There is no personal content creation aside from Notes, and the latter absorbs very little data (even less once sporadic updates resume).

The Molech-themed Twitter® feed is essentially disposable. It is only maintained now as a mockery of what the latter platform has become, that is, a censored conduit. Of course, it is a still very good platform for pornography.

The same data-saving practices, as outlined in Notes, will be exploited. Reading e-books, as long as decent titles are found, will be the preferred pastime over the Net.

Mask On, Mask Off 2020

The mayor of Honolulu has joined the chorus to beg the governor of Hawai’i to cast a full-on face mask gauntlet on the islands. In other words, full time task mask use, indoors and outdoors, including in places of residences. The mayor can be seen in the photo above passing out face masks to stunned tourists on the beach in Waikiki. What a putz! The big question is ... who is that hottie in the background?

The mayor has also been pontifying about his crackdown on Day of Samhain activities. There’s going to be a significant police presence in Waikiki, by the way. Waikiki has celebrated Day of Samhain previously with a huge street party. Instead, the mayor urged people to sit at home and “watch a spooky movie” or “conduct a Zoom costume party.” That mayor, he has a sardonic sense of humor, no?

Japan to the Rescue!

The governor of Hawai’i proudly announced that “special arrangements” have been made with his Japanese counterparts to expedite the arrival of thousands of tourists commencing November 6th. Drool was observed dripping from both sides of the governor’s mouth as he spoke because he was salivating profusely.

And, why not? Japanese tourists spend more money than tourists from any other point of origin. That translates to $400 to $500 per day per (adult) person for dining, shopping, and tours. In addition to spending lots of money, Japanese tourists love to wear face masks. To celebrate, the largest and most expensive hotels will reopen on November 1st.

The conundrum, however, is that O’ahu and Waikiki are still under “Tier 2” restrictions. Every venue is operating at limited capacity. Will the mayor of Honolulu miraculously fast-track to “Tier 4” and abandon the whole charade a few days later?

The mayor also dispatched notices to all hotels about the complete cancellation of Day of Samhain 2020 events. Hotel staff are advised to notify the police of any violations. Not going to happen! Baha! Ha! Ha! Haaa!

Addendum: Come November, there will be a resumption of tour bus routes. Automobile rental agencies are slated to reopen. Taxis will begin servicing shopping areas again. And, those hideous Japanese chartered fake trolley buses will commence service.

Miscellany: The e-book, “The Lost City of the Monkey God,” by Douglas Preston was read to completion.

Update: The governor is also working to establish “special arrangements” with other favored nations (e.g., Canada, South Korea, etc.) to bring in the more affluent tourists as soon as possible. Money, money, money!

Infinite Hoax

The lieutenant governor of Hawai’i is pushing for a full State-wide face mask mandate, indoors and outdoors, with a substantial penalty for violations. Nearly all residents in Hawai’i agreed and have been begging the government “duffers” to enact a face mask law immediately.

Meanwhile:

There has been a 98% plummet in flu infections this year, dispelling fears of a COVID and flu ‘twin-demic’ about which many had warned. Experts say we can thank masks and social distancing. But does this really add up?

Although there is no mass testing for flu as there is for COVID, the WHO says that surveillance of data from around the world shows flu rates collapsing everywhere. Australia essentially ‘skipped’ their flu season this year, with not a single case reported since July (their peak). In fact, flu has more or less vanished throughout the Southern Hemisphere, and early indicators suggest it will follow suit north of the equator. What can explain this unprecedented decline?

That’s according to science journalist, Peter Andrews. His questions certainly merits a response. So, what is really happening? Well, the evidence seems to suggest that influenza cases are being “mistakenly” identified and counted as “super-duper corona.”

Gym Day Redux

The weekend workouts (shoulders and back, respectively) were a little more tedious and strenuous than last Friday. However, there was no observed regression from two months ago. Legs, biceps, and triceps sets are mixed in each day as well. So far, so good.

One of the managers mentioned that gyms will likely be open for another two to four weeks. Then, there will be another evaluation of the on-going 7-day moving average of “super-duper corona” infections to determine the “tier” status. With the daily tally of infections increasing again, the likelihood of returning to “Tier 1” is high. Of course, that means gym closures again.

At this point in time, there’s just no way to prepare for another workout hiatus. So, the present workout routine will be maintained, but there will be less commitment involved in order to avoid any disappointment. The workarounds are already in place anyway. In other words, the desire to return to the “normal” workout regimen has vaporized. Prevention of further decline is now the focus.

Gym Day

A quick check of the 24Go “app” last night revealed that the gym was reopening on October 23rd, but there was no provision to set up the one-hour appointments.

Another quick check of the “app” this morning caused a bit of a surprise. The gym in town was listed as being open and “no appointment necessary.” So, upon arrival, the new conditions were verified. No appointments, no time limit, and face masks required. Entry is “first come, first served,” with a maximum capacity of 75 people. Unfortunately, the showers were still blocked off.

The gym was fairly empty at 11am (see photo). A couple of acquaintances were there, and brief conversations ensued. Working out sans a one-hour time constraint was nice. Today was chest day. There was no further loss of strength over the two-month hiatus from what could be ascertained. The resistance bands and push-ups apparently were effective. The cardio workout for 30 minutes was easily accomplished. Overall, there was much relief. The obvious lesson, of course, is that there should never be long sedentary breaks in any workout regimen.

Addendum: The gym was probably empty because everyone was standing in line at the Apple® Store to pick up the new iPhone 12.

Miscellany: The e-book, “America Before,” by Graham Hancock was read to completion.

Disappointment

The 24 Hour Fitness® location in town did not reopen today. There’s no telling when it will reopen. There’s no notice, nothing on the Web site or social media, and the “app” only indicates when a particular location is physically open. There’s absolutely no communication.

However, the gym location in Pearl City is open and has been open for the past two months. Equipment was moved into the covered parking area, so members could technically work out outdoors as per “Tier 1” requirements. There is the likelihood that only one location will remain open until “Tier 4,” which may not occur until late next year. “Tier 2” is a very precarious state and could be downgraded immediately if the “super-duper corona” 7-day moving average of infections increases. Then, all gyms would close yet again.

The daily overseas arrivals have decreased over the past few days. There were apparently a lot of problems with the Safe Travels site in addition to the total confusion about the “super-duper corona” pre-travel test requirement. About 20% of visitors experienced problems and long delays upon uploading test results. No doubt, travelers expressed their discontent on social media and by word-of-mouth. Lots of vacation cancellations probably materialized. Well, what else could be expected from a planned “clusterfuck”?

Ho-Hum 2020

The nationwide “super-duper corona” fearmongering has ramped up again with the issuance of new guidance by the CDC, an affiliate of “Big Pharma.” Yes, now even casual contact can cause infection. Face masks must be worn religiously. The immediate effect was fear and terror amongst the rank-and-file peons. The fearmongering must continue until a dubious vaccine is made available. Ho-hum.

Well, thanatophobia is already running rampant amongst the ignorant masses, so there certainly won’t be a need for observing Day of Samhain (October 31st) this year. Everyone is already wearing masks and “scared shitless,” too. Baha! Ha! Ha! Haaa!

The only somewhat good news is that gyms will allegedly reopen tomorrow. Same ol’ shit, though. One hour appointments, mandatory face masks, and “social distancing.” Again, with only about 30 members in the entire gym, the scene resembles a cheesy satire. Oh yeah, the CDC has issued an alert that “super-duper corona” is so contagious that even passing by an infected individual is dangerous. Ho-hum.

Gyms will not be able to increase capacity to 50% until “Tier 4.” That’s not going to happen anytime soon. Frankly, that may not be realized for at least a year or two. Ho-hum.

Addendum: Notes must, at this point in time, fully endorse the policy of “herd immunity” as the only rational response to “super-duper corona.” The “clusterfuck” ... errr, plan-demic ... was politicized and “weaponized” by the national Democrat (sic) Party, local Democrat (sic) stooges, the “mainstream” media, the technology oligarchs, and numerous nefarious NGOs to suit their own purposes. They are all “globalists” and their agenda is clear.

Tiered Stupidity

The mayor of Honolulu has requested approval from the governor of Hawai’i to move to “Tier 2” of his grandiose “super-duper corona” reopening plan. Thus, gyms could reopen this week, although the latter can only operate at 25% capacity. For the gym in town, that would translate to about 30 members for each hourly appointment. What is really ludicrous is that 30 people in that fairly large gym goes well beyond “social distancing” protocol.

Frankly, there really isn’t much enthusiasm about returning to the gym. The first “lockdown” of three months caused significant muscle atrophy. Strength was down to 80% of “normal,” primarily due to no workouts for the first two months. During the brief two-month reopening, strength recovered to 90% of “normal.” That was a lot of effort. Now, even with maintaining minimal workouts with resistance bands throughout the second “lockdown,” strength has decreased again. Thankfully, muscle atrophy was minimal with little loss of definition.

At nearly 66 years of age, the demoralization caused by the Fascist “lockdowns” has taken its toll. A good portion of the projected five “good years” is gone. The desire to go through the pain and agony of incremental gains at the gym is waning. And, the Fascists can revoke “Tier 2” at any time, which means that gyms will shut down again for an indeterminate period of time.

Well, the Fascists definitely have achieved their goals. They have weakened and “fattened up” a good portion of the population. The sycophants have been reduced to sniveling hypochondriacs. In Hawai’i, though, nearly 99% of the locals are now committed to vote for the Democrat “empty suit” candidate in the upcoming presidential (s)election. Mission accomplished!

Addendum: As of Wednesday, gyms will have been closed for 22 weeks in total for the year.

Sham LLC

Fool on the Beach

On Saturday, about 9,900 people arrived on overseas flights. Out of that number, a staggering 1,620 people are required to quarantine for 14-days. Who is going to supervise the quarantine? The hotel staff? The “security” guards? Or, will the farcical “honor system” prevail?

There has been little skepticism about the questionable and changing “super-duper corona” pre-flight testing plan. Obviously, no one cared to notice the sham when the tourism money started rolling in. Well, at least the fools all have their face masks to protect them! Baha! Ha! Ha! Haaa!

In any case, the idiotic mayor of Honolulu will either have to revoke his ridiculous “tiered” reopening plan or fast-track past “Tier 4” in the next week or so. Otherwise, there will be even longer waiting lines and queues to enter all venues. And, “social distancing” has already passed the point of practicality. In other words, the “clusterfuck” is rapidly expanding.

The mayor has also announced that myriad hotel rooms have been reserved for quarantining infected Hawai’i residents only. Room and board will be footed by city and State governments.

Addendum: There are now over 3,000 people who arrived in Hawai’i since Thursday without any “super-duper corona” pre-travel test documentation. All are supposedly in quarantine. No Sunday travel data available yet. Does that even matter anymore?

Floodgates Sham

Zombie Tourist Arrivals

Over the past two days (not including today), there were over 18,000 overseas arrivals. The floodgates of tourism have swung wide open! To celebrate, the governor of Hawai’i has declared that all “super-duper corona” test results will now be accepted, not just from the previously established “trusted partners.” That’s right. All tourists can now avoid the unenforceable 14-day quarantine, even with questionable test results.

Only two days after the floodgates of tourism were swung wide open, the revised pre-travel testing “guidelines” expose the ruse for what it is. There could be a new “cottage industry” producing cheap, realistic “super-duper corona” test documentation. Heck, why not just do away with the face mask and “social distancing” bullshit already? What a joke!

The mayor apparently announced the “super-duper corona” 7-day moving average on Thursday. He claims that “Tier 2” is still on-track for October 22nd. The daily tally, though, is suspiciously low. The reason could be, according to local news media, that given “about 1,600 coronavirus cases in the islands over a two-week period in September, just over 40% couldn’t be reached. In addition to no numbers or disconnected or wrong ones, contact tracers also encounter a large chunk of people who don’t return their calls.” Obviously, nobody wants to quarantine.

Addendum: The crowds, the stupidity ... all back “with a vengeance.” What happened to the plan-demic? With the national Democrat (sic) Party confident of a presidential victory, will the “super-duper corona” hoax be finally laid to rest after the election? Will the Democrat (sic) stooges in Hawai’i put an end to the charade?

Fiasco

Over 10,000 people arrived on overseas flights yesterday, with at least 800 people (about 10%) who did not get pre-tested for “super-duper corona.” There were also a number of people who had not received their test results yet. And, many visitors had no clue about registering on the useless Safe Travels site.

No doubt, this will be a daily occurrence. If the trend continues for two weeks, there will be at least 14,000 people who will be required to quarantine for 14 days (which they obviously won’t do).

Local media reported, “The first day of the new pre-testing program wasn’t without bumps, but most visitors seemed to overlook those and were myostly just happy to visit Hawaii ...” is that like the “mostly peaceful protests” occurring across the mainland empire?

The mayor of Honolulu neglected to report the “super-duper corona” 7-day moving average as he promised. Instead, he was beside himself to announce a partnership with the UH medical school to provide three-hour “super-duper corona” testing, although he has no prior approval from the governor of Hawai’i.

Addendum: The words, “pre-test” and “pre-testing,” are both nonsensical. Rather, “pre-travel test” and “pre-travel testing,” are proper. The original verbiage was coined by local sources and will be replace by proper terminology from this point forward.

Miscellany: The e-book, “The Sixth Extinction,” by Elizabeth Kolbert, was read to completion. Fascinating reading!

Drop da Soap!

Grab your ankles, fool!

The floodgates of tourism have been swung wide open! Come, dear affluent tourists! Spend your money, all of it! We, the people of Hawai’i, will “drop da soap” for you! Come! Welcome back!

Well, only the governor of Hawai’i and the mayor of Honolulu will happily “drop da soap.” There are probably about 8,000 tourists arriving throughout the day, which isn’t much for now. However, in two weeks or so, the daily average will be hovering at 112,000 people. However, the “super-duper corona” pre-testing program is inconsistent amongst the islands. Confusion will likely lead to myriad altercations. And, if anyone is forced to quarantine, compliance will be ignored.

And, what about international travelers? There has been no mention of a “super-duper corona” pre-testing option for them, so they will have to quarantine for 14 days using the “honor system.” Yeah, right. What a farce!

The governor is working overtime in negotiating “special arrangements” for Japanese tourists. Why? Well, they spend the most money out of all tourists, and they love to wear face masks!

“Tier 1” restrictions, courtesy the idiotic mayor, are still in place, so customer capacity in retail stores and restaurants is severely limited. Hours of operation are also curtailed. Sitting or standing anywhere else, except parks and bus stops, is prohibited. Groups are limited to five people (i.e., “rule of five”) and face masks are mandatory. “Social distancing” is required everywhere. Will the tourists comply?

As mentioned several times in Notes, tourists (particularly from the mainland empire and affluent Chinese nationals) are loud, obnoxious, rude, and self-righteous. They believe that their money buys them specific rights and exclusions. There is nothing redeeming about tourism except for those who reap the most profits.

Notes will attempt to chronicle the pending “clusterfuck,” even with photos (if necessary). The “fun” is just beginning! Baha! Ha! Ha! Haaa!

Addendum: The governor of Hawai’i has extended the moratorium on rental evictions to November 30th. However, there are only 27,000 households (out of 1.5 million people) that are in arrears, the clear majority of which only owe one month in back rent. Incidentally, that’s just a little more than double of a “normal” year. Obviously, very few people are “hurting.” The beaches are crowded. The shopping malls and food courts ... all packed with people spending money liberally. And, personal observations have noted only a small increase in the local homeless population, many of which are early release prisoners or psychiatric patients. All the publicity about the “dire straits” in Hawai’i is bullshit, another part of the “super-duper corona” hoax.

Excommunication

The anniversary of the abrupt termination of familial ties was not observed in any manner. There has been no attempt at contact by anyone. At this point in time, there are no claims of having any family at all. The issues that brought about the pathetic circumstances have been covered in Notes and will not be repeated.

Of course, this is as good a time as any to recap the effects of the “super-duper corona” plan-demic since this was the first year of official senior citizenship. The entire plan was to experience a humble and mendicant daily existence:

• Morning coffee at the fast food joint
• Work out at the gym
• Dine out (for dinner) frugally at various locations (partially restored)
• Loiter at the International Marketplace in the evening.

That’s all gone to the wayside. Even the joy of a decent haircut has been denied. In addition, medical and dental appointments for the year have all been cancelled. Yet, Medicare premiums are still being paid. What really is this retirement worth?

In essence, there is absolutely no reason to remain in Hawai’i, or in empire for that matter. And, there really is no reason to continue residency at the “old folks home” in Waikiki. So, the only choices are to move on or transition to motorhomelessness. There are no other options.

Next month, the age of 66 years will be achieved, for what that’s worth. There are probably only four more “good years” before decrepitude commences at an accelerating pace. So far, eight months of the remaining “good years” have been spent in forced convalescence because of the varying degrees of “lockdown.” Yeah, a lot of time was being wasted while death was certainly not put on hold.

Addendum: The daily diet has remained dangerously minimal. Only four slices of wheat bread (with a thin film of peanut butter) are consumed during the day. The largest meal, and only source of sustenance, is dinner, with either a sandwich from Subway® or three entrée plate from Panda Express®. That’s it.

Indifference

Honolulu Club

The Honolulu Club, a local upscale gym, has closed permanently. One down, how many more to go? That’s the big question as the wait for the “Tier 2” reopening remains in purgatory.

Oddly, coverage of the gym closure only produced a handful of on-line comments, mostly derogatory. There were two other minor on-line articles recently about the temporary gym closures, and comments were ambivalent. One fool adamantly supported the gym closures because of “science.” Again, more proof of mental midgetry.

No surprise, really. Even during the brief reopening of the gym for two months, attendance was sparse. Most of the people who did return had gained weight and lost muscle mass. The rest of the members? Either too scared of “super-duper corona” or simply casual workout types.

With the parks open, many people can be seen walking or running. However, upper body atrophy is fairly obvious amongst them. There are a steady number of people at the outdoor workout area in Ala Moana Beach Park. However, the variety of exercises are limited in number and also constricted to body weight resistance.

Needless to say, anecdotal observations indicate a significant increase in obesity. People here are not just “overweight,” they are clinically obese. None of them seem to care one way or the other. Some of them appear to be very proud of their obesity. Well, that’s the “new normal.” Baha! Ha! Ha! Haaa!

Addendum: As predicted in Notes, confusion over the “super-duper corona” pre-testing program has reached a fever pitch, just two days before the floodgates of tourism are to be swung wide open. In other words, the “clusterfuck” has commenced.

Truth & Buffoonery

As the day approaches when the floodgates of tourism swings wide open, a brief summary of the truth about “super-duper corona” as detailed in Notes over the past seven months is in order:

• Obesity, age, and co-morbidities are clear indicators of susceptibility
• Patients intubated on ventilators have only a 20% survival rate
• Fatalities are being overstated by “loose” criteria
• Face masks not of N-95 specification are useless
• “Social distancing” is useless
• “Super-duper corona” transmission occurs with close contact over extended periods of time
• Project Fear is the tool being used to create mass hysteria and subjection to Fascist mandates
• “Lockdowns” are mandated for social order and only increase infection “clusters.”

The aforementioned truths are slowly being mentioned in the corrupt “mainstream” media, but only in a very convoluted manner. The truth has always been available, but the latter must be tirelessly sifted out from disinformation.

Of course, the true nature of the “super-duper corona” plan-demic can be summed up ... in empire, the top 50 people in the “one percent” own as much wealth as 165 million of the “bottom feeders” (lower 50% of population).

In addition, the “one percent” fomented the current single-class war(s) by pitting peon against peon for ridiculous “binary” (i.e., left versus right, “black” versus “white,” “empty suit” versus “empty suit” ad nauseam) causes. The peons never look “up” to see who the true oppressors are. What can be expected when the masses have been reduced to mental midgets?

Addendum: The governor of Hawai’i has allowed for a “super-duper corona) two-test (i.e., existing pre-test before departure and a “rapid” test on arrival) requirement for overseas arrivals on the Big Island. Now, the other mayors (except for the mayor of Honolulu) are clamoring for the governor to require two tests statewide. And, the mandatory 14-day “honor system” quarantine for inter-island travel is still in effect. All this buffoonery going on just three days before tourists arrive en masse.

Miscellany: The e-book, “Magicians of the Gods,” by Graham Hancock, was read to completion. Very entertaining and enlightening!

Project Fearless

Here’s a priceless quote from the mayor of Honolulu:

“One thing we all know, the virus is everywhere. It’s everywhere. It’s in the Rose Garden of the White House infecting top government leaders. It’s in UH football team even though they get tested on a regular basis. It’s at our satellite city hall at Kapolei, in our DPP, permitting center out there. It’s not going to go away.”

That quote was the prelude to the first new weekly “super-duper corona” report. So far, according to the mayor, the 7-day moving average for daily infections is low. Suspiciously low. However, there is now the possibility that gyms can reopen under “Tier 2” on October 22nd at 25% capacity. Wheee!

Addendum: Even if gyms were to open on October 22nd, the latter would be immediately shut down again if the “super-duper corona” 7-day moving average were to increase. Then, it’s back to the default “Tier 1” bullshit.

Update: The lieutenant governor of Hawai’i is now clamoring for mandatory full-time face mask usage. Expect the governor to issue a directive soon.

Confusion

Gyms have been closed for 20 weeks in total for the 2020 year as of this day. What’s interesting is that, during the brief period that the gyms were allowed to reopen, the crowd density was far, far less than what can be observed at, say, Ala Moana Center right now.

On Monday, the governor of Hawai’i offered the option to opt-out of the “super-duper corona” pre-testing farce (for overseas arrivals) to all mayors of island counties. So far, the mayor of Hawai’i (Big) Island county has taken up the offer. Inter-island flights are still subject to the mandatory 14-day quarantine, by the way. Inconsistencies in policy, along with confusion, are imminent.

The daily “super-duper corona” infection tally has recently dropped below 100 for four consecutive days. That, in spite of the fact that people are out in force just like the first attempt at reopening. Allegedly, the number of available (read: uncommitted) test kits in Hawai’i has dropped to 7,000 or less. So, testing has been limited. Or, perhaps the real intent is to stage a “safe” environment to welcome tourists.

Addendum: The current heatwave has been continuous since Spring, creating a drought. Now, the Board of Water Supply has requested that residents begin conserving water, the first time in decades. As the situation worsens, who will be asked to ration water? Tourists or residents?

Notes on PCR Tests: The “mainstream” media is finally reporting the unreliability of “super-duper corona” test kits, albeit in a roundabout manner. The problem lies not only with the arbitrary “standard” for (lab processing) sensitivity but also involves the unsuitability of the test itself in this particular application. The plan-demic has been based on entirely on majority false positives.

Lipstick on a Pig

Here is the official position of the State government “duffers” concerning the extremely flawed pre-testing program for tourists arriving on October 15th forward:

“Honestly, if you do mandate people stay in quarantine. No one will come to Hawaii,” the lieutenant governor of Hawai’i said. “It’s natural to be afraid to have any spread, but the spread will not be from a few thousand tourists that come here who we’ve tested, re-checked, gotten their temperature, the spread occurs when people don’t wear masks. The spread occurs when we are actually delivering services to them.”

“If the mayors want to stop the spread of the virus, they should get our mask-wearing rate up. If we raise our mask rate, we will not have spread. That’s the safe way to do it," he added.

Here is the translation:

The Hawaii Tourism Authority is also gearing up for visitors to return and says the state risks jeopardizing its image if the relaunch is pushed back again. “Moving the date back will foster greater credibility issues in the markets,” said the president and CEO of HTA.

As stated previously in Notes, “super-duper corona” is a real pathogen. The farce, the hoax, is centered on face masks, “social distancing,” and “lockdowns.” The government “duffers” here simply followed the playbook issued by the national Democrat (sic) Party. It was a plan-demic for nefarious Fascistic purposes.

Addendum: Tourists here right now are all breaking the 14-day quarantine requirement, so they are unlikely to become vocal about any inconvenience resulting from “super-duper corona” mandates. After October 15th, when many of them will have paid out-of-pocket for testing, they will be unpleasantly surprised to have their vacations marred by face masks, “social distancing,” the “rule of five,” the long waiting queues to enter retail stores and restaurants, and the inability to sit down anywhere. Oh, what a “clusterfuck”!

Miscellany: The Differin® self-treatment of facial warts has ended with its supply depletion.

Update: The lieutenant governor also stated that, out of 8,000 tourists arriving daily, only a possibility of one person could be infectious. That would hypothetically increase the number of “super-duper corona” infections by 240 per month. Oddly, the latter information was edited (read: removed) from local on-line news sources.

The Real Plan

The plan to deal with possible “super-duper corona” problems (when the floodgates of tourism swing wide open on October 15th) has finally been pieced together. Local hospitals have been increasing capacity, specifically for “super-duper corona,” including additional wards and the recruitment of hundreds of medical personnel from the mainland empire.

That’s the real plan. The government “duffers” are fully aware of the faulty pre-testing program, the useless Safe Travels site, and the 14-day self-quarantine farce. So, they are preparing for a situation that could possibly spiral out of control. What a bunch of maroons!

In other pathetic news, the mayor of Honolulu announced that he will issue announcements on Thursday every week about the status of “super-duper corona” infections with regard to his reopening plan. Say what? His ridiculous 4-tier plan is already “cast in stone.” So far, there has not been any span of consecutive days that reported infections are less than 100 people. So, “Tier 1” is already set to continue. The mayor also mentioned that several new $20,000 message boards will be placed strategically to display the current 7-day “moving average” of  reported infections, much like a stock market ticker board. What the fuck is there to announce? Does he just like to hear himself babble?

Addendum: With the local universities in session for over a month now, the government “duffers” have admitted that no plan has been developed to deal with a “super-duper corona” outbreak on any of the campuses. No surprise, eh?

Torch Clusterfuck

In preparation for the opening of the floodgates of tourism, the energy-wasting cheesy “tiki” torches have been lit every night in Waikiki. The hotels have been busy sprucing up their properties, too. And, everyone (all donning face masks) is exuding unbridled excitement.

The State government “duffers” have stated that, commencing October 15th, there will be about 8,000 tourists arriving daily. After two weeks, there will be over 110,000 tourists, on average, rotating daily with departures and new arrivals. The aforementioned “duffers” have also stated that the number of possibly “super-duper corona”-infected tourists will be negligible. So, “no worries.”

The projected number of arrivals before the year’s end is slated to be 15,000 daily. That amounts to 210,000 tourists here on any given day.

The State apparently has decided to go with a Web site, Safe Travels Hawaii, instead of the useless “app” ( as detailed previously in Notes). Visitors will required to register on-line. The only apparent purpose for the latter is to allow for “paperless” documents. There’s no tracing involved. Hence, all follow-ups will be accomplished by phone or e-mail. What a farce!

The reopening on September 24th as detailed by the idiotic mayor of Honolulu (approved by the governor of Hawai’i) is based on a bullshit “tier” system. Currently, nearly every venue has reopened in “Tier 1” except for bars, nightclubs, and gyms. “Tier 1” will remain in effect as long as reported “super-duper corona” infections remains above 100 per day. There is no “Tier 0,” so no venue included in “Tier 1” will be closed down even if daily infections spike. There will be no inconvenience imposed on tourists.

Tourists will be required to quarantine for 14 days (using the “honor system” if they arrive without “super-duper corona” pre-test documentation (or until test results are returned). Who is going to enforce the quarantine? Apparently, the onus falls upon the hotels or owners of vacation rentals. Even a mental midget can see through the veneer of contrived deception.

Tourists will also be required to wear face masks and practice “social distancing.” Under “Tier 1,” they will not be allowed to gather in groups larger than five (or “rule of five”). No parties either. Yeah, right. Tourists come here to vacation in a virtual hospital? Baha! Ha! Ha! Haaa!

In addition, there are going to very long waiting queues at restaurants and retail stores. Buses, running reduced routes, will be full. Seating at shopping malls, again under “Tier 1,” is not allowed except for the minimal number (i.e., “rule of five”) in food courts. What happens when crowds of tourists arrive? Can you say, “clusterfuck”?

As for the gyms, all will remain closed until “Tier 2” is achieved. That is, the daily “super-duper corona” infection count must be below 100 per day for 14 consecutive days. Even then, the gyms will only be allowed to operate at extremely reduced capacity until “Tier 4” (i.e., “super-duper corona” infections less than 10 daily). Obviously, that’s not going to happen given that large numbers of wage slaves will be redeployed and given the extreme number of tourists transiting in, out, and around the islands.

Addendum: Does this recent post sound all to familiar? Many moons ago in Notes, the scenario was predicted and analyzed in Notes.

Boycott

There was no attempt made to view the “debate” between the two “empty suits” in their bid for emperor of empire. Heck, there is no wide-screen OLED tube in the mausoleum at the “old folks home” in Waikiki. And, precious cellular data for the iPhone XR cannot be squandered on such bullshit. The same can be said for the blatherings of both the governor of Hawai’i and his sidekick, the mayor of Honolulu. “Empty suits,” all of them!

There is no need to waste any time voting for any “empty suit.” The result will be the same anyway ... the rank-and file peons get fucked over. The only power that the “deplorables” have is the power of boycott. No, not the boycotting of rigged elections.

Many moons ago, as detailed in the old “blog” and legacy journal, a personal decision was made ... well, actually a vow ... to maintain a mendicant monk life-style indefinitely. The true purpose, of course, was to reduce all support of consumerism. The whole “system” revolves around rampant consumption, mostly of useless shit. The rank-and-file peons are unwittingly complicit in enriching the élite and imprisoning themselves. The entire “system” would collapse if even half of the rank-and-file peons took the vow.

In addition, personal debt burden is zero. No debt. Total reduction of debt by all rank-and-file peons will “double down” on the collapse. The parasitic “one percent” need to be brought down. That’s the only way.

As neo-feudalism and Fascism (perpetrated by both political parties) become fashionable, the time to mummify the latter and former diminishes. Soon, there will be no escape.

Addendum: The makeshift workouts with the resistance bands have been able to maintain muscle definition and prevent atrophy up to this point. However, the peak efficacy appears to be approaching rapidly. Subsequently, the resistance bands may become useless. Unfortunately, there is no prospect of any gym opening this year, given the absurd conditions of the mayor’s Fascist “tier” bullshit.
