Innocence

The Waikiki Community Center sponsored another giveaway of food this morning at the “old folks home” in Waikiki. The bag contained a can of tuna, a package of instant oatmeal, instant ramen noodles, and a cup of fruit. Small, but much appreciated.

A small cloth tote with a nice blanket, two adult coloring books, a box of colored pencils, a book of word puzzles, a deck of cards, a notepad, and a small pencil sharpener was also accepted.

None of the gifts are taken for granted. In fact, there was a need for personal reflection, triggered by the discovery of the adult coloring books. There was a flashback to the period of time that a rebirth of innocence was sought. That was back in the days of the old “blog.”

There was a lot of personal reflection then as well. An inventory of the “self” brought on tremendous grief at the realization of succumbing to the malignant filth and ubiquitous debauchery, that is, the current state of humanity. How could anyone become wrapped up in such a cesspool?

Thus, the vow to return to innocence. What happened? Somehow that vow dissipated into nothing. Now, the events in empire are signaling that the vortex of water in the commode, with the turds swirling about, is ready to purge into the sewage. There’s no physical escape, but there can be a renaissance of the person, a mental reconfiguration to a pre-adulterated state. Is the call to innocence beckoning once again?

Casino

The GameStop® stock fiasco has certainly laid bare the corrupt casino that is the empire’s stock exchange. That the Robinhood trading “app” (used by the vigilante investors) subsequently blocked buy transactions reveals the extent of the rigged markets. Life in empire continues to degenerate into a cesspool of filth.

An empire-wide “domestic terror” alert has been issued by the “authorities” for the next two months. The crackdown on the “deplorables” has commenced. When are the color-coded alerts coming?

Addendum: The governor of Hawai’i has approved the “super-duper corona” pre-departure testing program for tourists from South Korea.

“Joe Headroom”

Max Headroom

A couple of the widescreen OLED tubes in the gym are set to “mainstream” news channels. There is a constant feed of the Democrat (sic) “empty suit” executive reading speeches and announcements off of a teleprompter. What’s eerie is that the telecasts are reminiscent of the Max Headroom character from the television series of several decades ago.

Or, perhaps, a “deep fake” caricature has been created for public relations purposes. Spooky, very spooky.

Mutant Ninja Virus

The first case of “mutant super-duper corona” has allegedly been discovered in Hawai’i. Mass vaccination centers have also been established, and panicked people are flocking to get in line. Could another “lockdown” be in the works?

The first heavy rainstorm of the season flooded many of the streets today. The idiocy of wearing face masks was laid bare. Cloth face masks saturate with water. Disposable face masks disintegrate. Yet, the fear of death supersedes any inconvenience.

The “experts” of empire are now suggesting that wearing two or more face masks (i.e., one over the other) is prudent. No doubt, the masses will eagerly comply (as well as asphyxiate themselves).

Addendum: The Apple® Weather “app” proved to be somewhat useless during the rainstorm. Uninstalled (or, rather, disabled and hidden since it cannot be removed).

Miscellany: The effort to remove personal information from various “people search” sites has been somewhat successful ... for now. Nonetheless, the campaign will be on-going.

Plan-demic Update

The futuristic flagship Walgreens® store (across Ala Moana Center) now has a huge homeless camp along its periphery. The once stunning edifice is now covered with graffiti. The location was only open for four years when it abruptly closed last June.

The governor of Hawai’i extended the eviction moratorium until February 14th, so the inevitable homeless “tsunami” has been postponed for a few weeks. No telling what will happen then.

Bars and nightclubs are supposedly not allowed to reopen until Tier 4 of the ridiculous “scientific” plan of the previous mayor of Honolulu. However, several bars located along Kapiolani Boulevard were apparently observed to be open this evening in direct violation of the tiered plan-demic mandate.

Although Hawai’i initiated the full-time face mask mandate ahead of the recent executive order by the Democrat (sic) “empty suit” president, there has been no personal reason to comply with either. The “line has been drawn in the sand,” so to speak. The “super-duper corona” farce is already “over the top.”

Anonymous

The latest project has been the removal of personal profiles from various “people search” sites. Many hours have been devoted to the project. Although the aggregate data is from public sources, the convenience of “people search” sites have made composite profiles easily accessible. The real problem is that a lot of the data is flawed. When those sites report a “reputation score” based on faulty data, the victim is left “holding the bag.”

With the surveillance state ramping up under the new Fascist regime of empire, the need for anonymity becomes a priority. Thus, “cloud” storage has been effectively emptied. Absolutely no artifacts have been left behind. Other mitigation is in the works. Details are forthcoming. And, yes, these actions are the result of the censorship and surveillance regime instituted by the technology behemoths.

With that said, all on-line accounts (except ones requiring real information) have been established using the usual pseudonym. Account consolidation and closures are next.

Miscellany: Workouts at the gym have progressed satisfactorily. The workout regimen has realized an increase to 95% of pre-“super-duper corona” benchmarks. While the possibility of returning to 100% is now feasible, there will not be an attempt to do so.

Orange Hoax

There was some hope that “Orange Bad Man” would pardon Julian Assange, Edward Snowden et al. on his final day as executive of empire. That was not the case. The only conclusion that can be drawn is that “Orange Bad Man” has capitulated to the “Deep State” and the “Establishment.” Or, he has been a covert shill for both all along. In any case, the rank-and-file peons of empire have been bamboozled and betrayed yet again.

“Orange Bad Man” had abandoned his supporters (“deplorables”) long ago. Now, the hapless masses are in the clutches of the pseudo-liberal, pseudo-progressive Democrat (sic) Party (i.e., the “left”) and its shills. And, whom exactly is the author of the policies being spewed by an “empty suit” who can barely read the teleprompter in front of him?

“Orange Bad Man” is a “one-hit wonder.” He won’t be making a comeback in empire politics. He will fade away just like the Republican Party. Good riddance!

Addendum: There will most likely be only one “official” narrative in empire, whether the latter is true or false, from this point forward. There will be no dissension, no alternative thoughts, just one narrative.

Inverted Totalitarianism

The Hawai’i State Capital has been fortified with concrete barriers and high fences, an obvious first following the lead of the Capitol of empire. Will there be a military presence? Who knows? There is only a small minority of “Orange Bad Man” supporters here. So, the “props” are overkill.

In the Capitol of empire, there are major fortifications and a huge (i.e., 25,000+ personnel) military presence. The “Establishment” has created the spectacle to totally insure that its candidate is inaugurated, by force, if necessary. There has also been a coordinated effort to produce more fearmongering, this time concerning “domestic terrorists.”

Fear has been a great tool for the Fascists. With the “super-duper corona” plan-demic, they have been able to implement repressive social engineering and deconstruct “society.” The fear has been so conditioned into the masses that the new threat of “domestic terrorism” was an “easy sell.”

Will there be a revolt by the “deplorables” on January 20th? Will there be another “false flag” operation to further invoke Draconian “security” and surveillance measures? Who knows? This is the “New (Ab)normal.” Love it, or leave it!

Enjoy & Deploy

Waikiki Beach at Sunset

Another beautiful day. And, with such nice warm weather, the dinner at Panda Express® in Ala Moana Center was much anticipated. The same entrées are always chosen, nothing deep fried. And, generic ice cream was procured from Target® for dessert!

The $75 Walmart® gift card from the Medicare Advantage rewards program was received today. Every benefit from the healthcare plan is being exploited.

The simple life is all that brings joy to a poor geriatric soul. There will never be any indulgence in “luxuries” for the remainder of this life. Why even bother? Fascist totalitarianism is just a few days away anyway.

Last night, the flick, “Inception,” was viewed on the Roku Channel site. Very enjoyable, and no advertisements either. Of course, now it’s time to “get down to business” read Sheldon Wolin’s book, “Democracy, Incorporated.”

By the way, over 9,000 refugees from Honduras are trekking toward the border of the mainland empire right now. They are demanding that the “empty suit” Democrat “president-elect” open the border when they arrive as was promised. If so, there will be thousands upon thousands more coming across all borders. Eleven million illegal immigrants are also expecting to be granted asylum. Another “clusterfuck”? Oh, yes.

Postscript: Any readers of Notes should begin to disassociate from the latter soon. Unless banal mundanity is a preference, there will be no reason for future visits. Good-bye and much appreciation in advance for all departures.

Blindsided Musings

There seems to have been some blindsided musings on Notes. The issue of the despised “ownership society” was not taken into consideration. The removal of the Parler (and now Wimkin) “app” by Google® and Apple® cannot be classified as censorship given the obtuse “terms of service” of both parties. While the “apps” may have been removed from the associated “ecosystems,” the Web sites were still available. There was no attempt to block access through the Web browser of either platform. In addition, the “apps” were “free.”

On the other hand, the removal of Parler from Amazon Web Services is a breach of contract. Parler pays for Web hosting, which is much different than the end user scenario. Litigation has already commenced, and the complaint must be resolved in the courts.

As far as Facebook® and Twitter® are concerned, both are engaged in discriminatory censorship. The best measure is to mummify those accounts permanently.

At this point in time, the previous decision to totally disengage from Google® and Apple® must be revisited. No doubt, dependencies must be reduced anyway. And, “apps” should never be relied upon. Best to use the Web browser.

Update: Google® has now targeted the Minds social media “app.”

Bananas

“Free bananas for all! Bananas for everyone!” The latter was a comment spotted on [a formerly acceptable] site. Baha! Ha! Ha! Haaa!

The campaign to completely “cancel” the beleaguered “Orange Bad Man” has reached a fever pitch. The Democrat (sic) Party assumes that his supporters will assimilate into the “cube” once he is marginalized. Will the insanity stop then? Who knows?

Thus, the task to disengage from Google® and Apple® has commenced. The personal Google® account is expendable. The files on Drive are expendable. Voice will be phased out. Notes will continue sporadically until the necessity for mummification manifests itself. The Molech-themed Twitter® feed will be abandoned at some point.

The iPhone 12 remains a problem. Huawei® will be introducing the Harmony OS this year, which will be entirely new and not tethered to any existing operating system. That’s the only non-Fascist option.

The Sponge

The only “luxury” purchase in many moons has been a nice bath sponge for $2 and some change at Walmart®. Hopefully, its use will facilitate the clearing of skin problems previously discussed in Notes. It’s a great sponge, much like the old shower pouf.

End of Story

The histrionics, courtesy the Democrat (sic) Party, is now focused on yet another impeachment of “Orange Bad Man.” The premise is the blocking of his return in the 2024 (s)election (only if convicted).

Later, “Orange Bad Man” made a televised speech to denounce “mob violence” and offered the usual “unity” message. As a “witch-hunt” ensues for any and all participants of the January 6th “insurrection,” the beleaguered “Orange Bad Man” is attempting to persuade his supporters to assimilate into the “cube.” That’s it ... end of story.

Addendum: The CEO of Apple® announced that Parler social media “app” would be reinstated once strict moderation (read: self-censorship) was in place. How idiotic! Parler doesn’t even exist. It was completely wiped off the Net. The big question ... can Apple® be trusted from this point forward?

Postscript: The worst part of the sham (s)election is the aftermath of “doxxing” and snitching. Peon against peon. Sickening!

Clusterfuck Empire

At this juncture in time, there is so much bullshit, so many lies, too many accusations, and myriad conflicting news to even make sense of what is going on. There is no other way to describe what’s going down now as anything other than a “clusterfuck.”

Obviously, the issues are well beyond the scope of Notes. And, no one’s interpretation is superior or more trustworthy than another (especially the so-called “mainstream” media”). There are sane voices, but the latter must be parsed.

The only current pressing issues (as noted in the post of yesterday) are how to disengage from various on-line accounts and what to do with the iPhone. Otherwise, the consumption boycott remains in effect as it has for many moons.

Postscript: The collapse of empire commenced with the suspicious “September 11th” event. The legacy “blog” discussed the issues in detail from a personal perspective.

Kraken

The “super-duper corona” infection tally has now averaged between 200-280 per day. To his credit, the new mayor of Honolulu has stated that there won’t be a reversion to “Tier 1” restrictions. Unfortunately, the brainwashed masses are panicking and calling for a complete “lockdown.”

Then, there’s the vaccine issue. The governor of Hawai’i already announced the distribution priority for the vaccine. Yet, the panicked public have become extremely distressed about the wait. The fearmongering has been 100% successful in the islands.

To add to the disarray, an urgent care clinic in Waikiki has tested several tourists from LA in Cali (an alleged plan-demic hotspot) after showing symptoms. The tests were positive, even though their pre-departure results were negative. Obviously, the PCR tests are unreliable. Yet, the news was enough to cause more panic.

Finally, about 99% of the local residents are wearing face masks full time, while tourists are averaging 90% or so. From the viewpoint of Fascists, the “new normal” social conditioning experiment has been a real success. From this point forward, when the Fascists say, “Jump!,” the peons will ask, “How high?”

The latest move by Google® and Apple® as well as other platforms (i.e., removing Parler from their “app” stores) is just about the “last straw.” Although Parler is not used personally, the discriminatory blanket censorship is unacceptable. Yet, what can be done?

The Google® personal account includes Blogger, Drive, GMail, and Voice. GMail is not used. Drive has a few expendable files stored. Voice, however, is now used for a permanent phone number. The account could be abandoned with minor difficulties. Of course, that would be the end of Notes. Android® was long ago abandoned as described in Notes many moons ago.

The iPhone 12 is the only connection with Apple®. Most of the system “apps,” especially any with subscriptions, have been deleted. No third-party “apps” are installed (except open source Ka-Block!). A move to a Huawei® “smartphone” (with its new Harmony OS operating system) may be required.

The Molech-themed Twitter® feed is of no consequence. It can be abandoned anytime. No loss there. Nonetheless, some kind of decision must be made.

Update: Amazon Web Services is mummifying Parler servers on Sunday. Unless Parler finds another Web host, it will cease to exist. Terminate all transactions with Amazon® now!

Miscellany: The Libby “app” has also been permanently mummified. The catalog of the local library is comprised mostly of “woke” bullshit. A PDF copy of the book, “Democracy Incorporated,” by Sheldon Wolin has been downloaded for reading.

The Purge: Election Year

So, it begins ... Twitter® has terminated the accounts of “Orange Bad Man,” his campaign team, and various other associates. Google® has removed the Parler social media “app” from its Play Store with Apple® soon to follow. The brazen Fascist purge has commenced, and there has been no attempt at subterfuge. The real target, of course, are the “deplorables.”

In the meantime, there is an expedited attempt to drop another impeachment on “Orange Bad Man.” The executive codes for nuclear weapons launching have also been changed to lock him out. The reason? He has gone crazy. “Orange Bad Man” meets “Dr. Strangelove.”

The tiny Republican Party of Hawai’i issued a statement disavowing any connection with “Orange Bad Man.” No surprise. The cowardly always flock together.

There is now a very high probability that the entire empire will be in full mandatory “lockdown” once the Democrat “empty suit” is inaugurated. “Mutant super-duper corona” will be the thinly-veiled excuse to invoke Draconian social control.

Miscellany: Dinners have mostly been procured at Panda Express® this week. With the full “lockdown” looming, any enjoyment must be fully exploited.

Update: Apple® has removed Parler from the App Store for failure to incorporate prejudicial censorship. The purge is accelerating. Support Parler!

IngSoc

As to be expected, the total public humiliation of “Orange Bad Man” ramped up immediately, even including members of his administration who resigned yesterday. Not to mention, the puppet leaders of the pathetic EU also joining the chorus. There just is no way to articulate the spineless cowardice of those scumbags. The spectacle was akin to a gang of schoolyard bullies.

The “deplorables” are also being persecuted in order to warn everyone else that dissension is no longer tolerated. The patriot, Ashli Babbitt, who was killed by Capitol Police, is being defamed posthumously with claims that she was a “QAnon conspiracy theory” nut. This is just the beginning of the “re-education” of the “deplorables.”

With the decimation of the Republican Party imminent, there will only be one remaining party. It will be a pseudo-liberal and pseudo-progressive farce. Its sole purpose will be to advance the agenda of the globalist oligarchs, the “Deep State,” and the “Establishment” (all formerly known as the moneychangers and powers-that-be, or simply the “one-percent). For all intents and purposes, the name of the remaining political party should be changed to IngSoc.

Paul Craig Roberts postulates that, once IngSoc is established, the “tables will be turned” on the globalist oligarchs. No doubt, dissidents in the “Deep State” and the “Establishment” will also be ferreted out and vanquished. That’s when “woke” totalitarianism turns into a complete Fascist dictatorship. George Orwell’s vision becomes a real living nightmare.

One Down

The protesters who converged on the capitol of empire are being labeled a “mob” and “terrorists.” The protest is now an “insurrection,” an act of “sedition,” a “siege,” and an “assault on democracy.” All bullshit from the “mainstream” media, of course.

“Orange Bad Man” did not order his supporters to storm the Capitol. He did not incite violence. What should be noted is how quickly all Republican support in objection to the Electoral College (sic) confirmation vaporized immediately in the aftermath of the protest. The Republican objections would have been merely bad kabuki theater anyway, duly noted and discarded.

Strategically speaking, “Orange Bad Man” has exacted payback on the political party that has never supported him even before his 2016 victory. Many of the Republican “hacks” have even openly opposed him. They are all spineless worms.

What is really happening is the death of the Republican Party, thank goodness. There is a high probability that very few of the “deplorables” will vote in the next major (s)election, which will reduce Republican representation (sic) even further. With voter fraud by the Democrats guaranteed, the Republican Party will fall into irrelevance. Good riddance! One down, one to go.

Addendum: There is increasing testimony that outside agitators were brought in to incite the protesters to force entry into Congress. In other words, a “false flag” operation.

Update: “Orange Bad Man” has formally conceded to the Democrat “empty suit.” Unfortunately, he also betrayed his supporters by condemning them for their actions during the protest.

Postscript: Many people have probably not even noticed a peculiar anomaly of the 2020 (s)election.

Office of the What?

There has never been an official “Office of the President-Elect” after any (s)election, at least one presented ubiquitously in the “mainstream” media. Pure “psych-ops” bullshit.

January 6th Showdown

“Insurrection”

History was certainly made today after the bogus (s)election certification by Congress was postponed by the protests of “Orange Bad Man” supporters, the “deplorables.” Any actual violence, though, appears to have been fueled by outside agitators.

When “Orange Bad Man” delivered a televised message to those supporters later, he appeared to be completely taken aback by the sheer number of people that converged on the Capitol. Suffice to say, he may also have realized, at that point, the complete devotion that his supporters have bestowed upon him.

The message for all of the corrupt career politicians, the so-called “establishment,” was clear. These prostitutes to Big Money are now at the frontline. They are the buffer between the angry masses and the “one percent.” When the popular anger boils over, they will be the first line of “collateral damage” at the receiving end.

Of course, the Fascist “mainstream” social media immediately censored all the posts and froze the accounts of “Orange Bad Man” for 12 hours. There are also calls for the immediate removal of “Orange Bad Man” from office by the prostitute politicians. The latter and former actions will likely incite popular anger even more.

In Hawai’i local news, the “super-duper corona” farce has been augmented with a new tracking app, AlohaSafe. No doubt, preparations for the nationwide lockdown under the new Democrat “empty suit” administration has commenced.

Addendum: The road to Fascist totalitarianism has now been embarked upon at “warp speed” by empire. No unvetted “outsider” will be allowed into the national political arena. The Fascist agenda of the globalists, the “Deep State,” and the “establishment” will move forward unabated.

Postscript: Apologies to the sex industry for the use of the term “prostitutes” to describe sleazy politicians. “Bags of shit” would have been more appropriate.

Miscellany: The disgust with both Twitter® and Google® has been growing. There is no telling how long tenure on either platform can be tolerated. And, if the CEO of Apple® can’t keep his political opinions to himself, the iPhone 12 may be abandoned as well.

Cube

The certification of the (s)election of the Democrat “empty suit” is scheduled for tomorrow. There is much anticipation concerning whether the process will be interrupted by a small group of dissident lawmakers and senators in favor of “Orange Bad Man” and whether their efforts are successful.

Frankly, even without the steady interference of the Democrats, the “Orange” administration would most likely not have pursued policies favorable to the masses of rank-and-file peons. Thus, the only reason to support “Orange Bad Man” in his final attempt to overturn the (s)selection is that the latter has been a “thorn in the side” of the “establishment” and “Deep State.” In addition, the (s)election was clearly rigged and that travesty must be exposed.

Meanwhile, the same old “Russia” narrative has been resurrected again. And, the fearmongering is ramping up over “mutant super-duper corona.” You know the drill. Whatever anyone thinks of the “Great Reset,” whether it is a “conspiracy theory” or not, the chain of events is rapidly unfolding. The ruling élite no longer bother with subterfuge. The entire World Economic Forum (WEF) globalist plan is accessible on the Net. It’s there. It’s real.

The masses need to understand what’s in store for them and make a decision to accept or refuse their predetermined fate. The insouciance and complacency of the masses has already resulted in major progress toward neo-feudalism. Sadly, the time is already long past the point that protests and marches have any efficacy.

Most likely, the masses will be too stupid to realize that they’ve been “owned.” They will continue to fragment and kill each other off (read: peon versus peon). In the meantime, the ruling élite will continue to assimilate more wealth through massive transfers. By the end of the year, there may only be ten “feudal lords” controlling the bulk of the world’s wealth. These globalists and Fascists are the real targets. When will the ignorant masses understand that?

Stimuli

The $600 “stimulus” direct deposit transpired today. Wheee! There are comments everywhere on the Net about the measly amount, so no discussion here. At the least, a couple of additional dinners at Panda Express® per month can now be afforded.

The new mayor of Honolulu was sworn in. Will there be any changes? Baha! Ha! Ha! Haaa! Hawai’i is just like a corrupt third-work nation. And, the former mayor? He’s running for governor of Hawai’i. Says it all, doesn’t it?

The weather has been extremely mild for Winter so far, thank goodness. The ambient temperature is cooler, but tank tops are still being worn day and night.

Ala Moana Center has reduced its operational hours to pre-Saturnalia times. The mall is only open to 8pm on Friday and Saturday.

The only good news is that 24-Hour Fitness® has exited Chapter 11 bankruptcy. So, the threat of a sudden and permanent closure has been abated for now. How long will that last?

So far, Visible service has been adequate. Yeah, latency is a problem. However, does it matter if a Web site takes one more second to load? Download speeds are not spectacular either, but the latter is adequate for 720p streaming. 5G is kind of a farce. There are other issues as well, but having an unlimited data allocation is imperative at this time.

Postscript: Release Julian Assange now! Full pardons for Julian Assange, Edward Snowden, Chelsea Manning, and Reality Winner!

New Shit 2021

New year? Same as last year. What’s the difference? The same fearmongering over “super-duper corona” will now be extended to “mutant super-duper corona.” When the senile “president-elect” assumes office, the possibility of a full “lockdown” of empire is high.

Obviously, the masses of “deplorables” are being physically and psychologically worn down into total submission. Chronic insanity will rise disproportionately. All part of the plan ... the plan-demic, that is.

New Year’s Eve was uneventful in Hawai’i. What exactly is there to do when the entire island remains under “Tier 2” restrictions? Every venue closed early, so cold canned beans dinner sufficed for dinner again (refer to the Saturnalia post for details). All of the New Year’s Eve celebrations were mummified. Bar and nightclubs remain closed until “Tier 4,” whenever that might be.

Fortunately, the gym was open and will remain open during the holiday. Every day at the gym is being completely utilized because of the looming “lockdown” threat.

There are a quite a few tourists visiting now, so much so that Waikiki is fairly crowded. There’s no way to confirm the tourism trend because local news sources have ceased to provide any information. So, there’s no data on arrivals, quarantine, and quarantine violations. Still, with “Tier 2” restrictions, why would anyone of sound mind bother to come here?

New Year’s Day, of course, was a return to the banal “Tier 2” life-style. In other words, same ol’ shit. From a personal viewpoint, the “super-duper corona” plan-demic has exacted a toll on the psyche. To say that the mental state is fragile would be an understatement. Of course, that exactly defines the purpose of incarceration.

Incidentally, a couple tiny pumpkin pies were purchased from Walmart® for a snack.

Those pies are really cute, aren’t they?

Addendum: The timely homeless report has been postponed because of the difficulty in acquiring data. By direct observation, there has been a large increase in the homeless population. There has also been an increase in motorhomelessness. Because of “super-duper corona” travel restrictions, homeless migration from the mainland empire has ceased in the interim. Thus, the new homeless are all local residents.
