Empire and the collective “West” are collapsing. The daily violent and senseless murders and shootings in empire are clear signs of advanced societal decay. The masses of rank-and-file peons are “losing it” and they don’t even know why.
The so-called “fabric of society” has completely unraveled. The majority of the peons are assholes and damned proud of that fact. They display aggressive and belligerent behavior, which is why violence quickly erupts even in superfluous circumstances. Violent death is promoted and glorified in the entertainment and games media. Death is always the recurring theme in human legacy as a means to facilitate its denial. The Great Prophet, Ernest Becker, warned about the denial of death and its sociopolitical effects.
Then, take a look at the ZIRP/NIRP fiasco at play. For the same rank-and-file peons, lower interest rates means lower mortgage and credit interest rates. Yet, home valuations (read: assets) and consumer prices are going to rise exponentially (not inverse proportionately). The stress created by this “zero sum” game can only lead to more in-class violence. For the affluent class of assholes, this means nothing. Their wealth will increase exponentially to compensate.
On Wednesday, a full-size microwave oven was ordered from Target for delivery to the mausoleum in the “old folks home” in Waikiki. Target® Circle 360® subcontracts delivery to a firm named Shipt. Thus, when ordering on-line, the product must be in-stock at one of the regional locations. The Shipt delivery person is actually a hired “shopper” who has “no skin in da game.” Thus, Shipt is the weakest logistical link. The order was subsequently cancelled by the Shipt “shopper” because the product was allegedly “not in stock.”
About 30 minutes was spent discussing the situation with a manager at Target® in Waikiki. She called the Ala Moana Center store to verify that the microwave oven was in stock, and deduced that the Shipt “shopper” probably couldn’t find the latter and didn’t bother to inquire. Although the order was cancelled, the charge still appears on the personal credit card. Long story short, this is another chapter in the “woke” and “diversity hire” debacle.
On a side note, the fallout from the dubious iOS 26 upgrade has reached a fever pitch. There have been a few articles about the upgrade in various technology “blogs.” The ones with comment sections proved to be quite telling. A very large number of people who upgraded are extremely dissatisfied with the new “skin.” Frankly, the aesthetics are pretty poor on the small screen. The unnecessary animations are also consuming more battery power.
Addendum: About 10 percent of the local population is still donning face masks in public. When did the “corona” hoax end? Yeah, years ago.
