Not Even the Kragle Can Ruin Small Engine Thursday

Today is Small Engine Thursday. The first of its kind.

I’ve been struggling to pull myself out of the sludge of years of small engine problems, and it’s starting to come together. I bought a new Husqvarna 562XP chainsaw. I got my Echo CS590 running. I took my small Husky saw and my Echo polesaw to the shop.

I decided every Thursday would be Small Engine Thursday. Start every small engine on the property, let it warm up, and make sure all is well.

Today I ran the CS590, the 562XP, my Husqvarna 125B miniature blower, my Echo SRM-3020T trimmer which has a circular saw blade on it instead of string, and my huge Echo backpack blower. The 125B could probably use a carb rebuild and a return to the original non-Chinese carb, but it moves dirt and leaves and doesn’t quit.

I have several parts on the way to make things better. I’ll be modding the Echo saw and stashing carb rebuild kits away for later. I bought some more tools, of course.

Yesterday I put a new oil cap on my Makita cordless chainsaw and cleaned it up to confirm it was pumping oil.

The EZGO ran a couple of days ago, so I’m not worried about it. I don’t want to fool with it until tomorrow because I did something dumb. I removed a wheel to fix a tire, and I must not have torqued the nuts correctly when I put it back on, because the wheel fell off just outside my gate. I had to jack it up, put it back on with the one nut I was able to find, and limp it to the garage. I had to order new lug nuts and a die to clean up the lug studs. The die arrives tomorrow, but if I can find new lug studs, I’ll just buy them.

Both tractors run now.

Things are good. Now if I can just find out why my car is throwing false overheating alarms.

Maybe Some Day Manufacturers Will do This

I am doing something I should have done long ago. I am studying my yard tools and writing down useful things.

I’m writing stuff down here because I know other people have pulled their hair out trying to get this information.

My Echo chainsaw is a CS590 Timberwolf. It uses the same carb rebuild kit as Echo’s other 60cc saws. The part number is P033000000. The carb is made by an extremely annoying company, Walbro, which has horrible customer service. The Walbro part number is K22-HDA.

My Echo pole saw is a PPT-280. The carb part number is A021001340. It’s a Walbro WYK-233A. The rebuild kit’s part number is P003001120. The Walbro kit number appears to be K13-WYK. It replaced other kits with other numbers. The kit is hard to find due to poor support from Echo, which (apparently) is also Shindaiwa and Yamabiko.

My Echo weed trimmer is an SRM-3020T. It’s a monster. The carb is a Walbro WYG-11A, which you can get for about $80. Echo part A021004831. There are two repair kits. One is a tune-up kit which doesn’t include carb parts. It contains an air cleaner and spark plug and so on. The part number is 90181Y, and it costs over $30. The ECHO number for the carb kit is P003005940.

Check your weed trimmer’s serial number to make sure the carb kit fits. There were multiple versions.

Echo’s website is useless. It doesn’t function.

My Jonsered CS2240 (Husqvarna 435) saw has a Zama C1T-El41 carb. Easier to find than Walbro carbs. The rebuild kit has two part numbers. RB-149 and Z000-001-K035. Don’t ask me why. You can get one for around $12.

Only Took 7 Years to Get it Working

I got my Echo Timberwolf chainsaw running, finally. I did two things. I did a half-rebuild on the Walbro HDA-327 carb (same rebuild kit for all 60cc Echo saws), and I finally got straight information on the starting procedure. I learned some simple things which, oddly, are not widely known.

If you have an Echo CS590 saw, I can help you start it.

First, you need to know about the choke. It’s not just a choke. It also holds the throttle open. It does this when it’s engaged, and it also does it after you disengage it, so if you pull the choke and then push it back in, the throttle will stay open.

With that in mind…

1. Lift the on/off toggle switch that controls the spark. Without this, you have no chance of starting it.

2. Engage the choke. Leave it engaged. This chokes the engine and opens the throttle so the saw will get a lot of gas when it tries to start.

3. Depress the compression release. Some people claim it keeps saws from starting because you need compression to start, but my saw starts with it depressed, so that can’t be true. It makes it easier to yank the cord.

4. Engage the brake. No one listens to this advice, but it’s bad to have a saw start at high speed with the chain spinning like crazy.

5. Put the saw on the ground and put your foot through the handle to hold it down. No one does this either, but it’s safer than the showoff way. One problem: it’s not actually possible to put your foot in the handle unless you have tiny feet. Put a piece of wood through the handle and step on it.

6. Pull the cord out a couple of inches and then yank as hard as you can. After a few pulls, the saw should make some kind of noise. When you hear that, disengage the choke. It doesn’t matter how feeble the noise is. If you keep yanking, you will flood the engine.

7. The saw should start within a few pulls. When it does, tap the throttle to release the detent that holds it open. The extra gas is only to make the saw start. If you run it fast with the brake on, you’re going to fry your clutch.

8. Release the brake.

That’s about it. If it doesn’t work, your saw is badly tuned or has some other problem. Fix it.

Other tips:

1. Avoid canned fuel. This one surprised me, but there is a very sharp saw mechanic on Youtube who says she has repeatedly “fixed” dead saws by pouring out Trufuel and other canned gas. Get yourself some ethanol-free gas if possible. If you can’t find it, get ordinary gas. Treat it with Echo Red Armor oil and Biobor EB to make it last longer. Don’t use Sta-Bil red. The blue stuff might work. Supposedly, you can get 6 months out of regular gas treated with the right things. Biobor EB promises “up to” 18 months, but it doesn’t mention “down to.”

2. If your saw won’t start, dump the fuel and replace it before doing anything else. Just find a quiet corner of your yard and dump it on the ground. No one will get cancer.

3. If you’re storing your saw for a while, dump the fuel, put canned fuel in it, and run it dry, pulling the choke to get all the gas out. The big problem with this is that a dry saw may have problems with dry seals later, but you can’t have everything.

4. When you treat your fuel, take a Sharpie and write the date on the jug. Never use a jug you also use for gas that has no oil in it, because you will get confused and ruin your engine. If you know how old your fuel is, you can make intelligent decisions later.

5. Start your small engines every week. Pick a day and start them all. If you avoid letting your saws sit idle, you should be able to avoid the business of running them dry.

6. If you flood your saw, make sure the throttle is open and try again. Engage the choke and disengage it. You can also put a velcro strap around the trigger to keep it depressed. This sometimes works.

To start your Echo warm:

1. Make sure the switch is on.

2. Engage the choke.

3. Disengage the choke. Now the throttle is open.

4. Engage the brake.

5. Put saw on ground and immobilize it.

6. Yank until it starts.

7. Tap throttle.

8. Disengage brake.

Here’s something really important: whenever you see the saw when it’s not running, turn the switch on. It won’t hurt anything to have the ignition on when the saw is not running, but if you leave it off, you will forget to turn it on before starting the saw, and you will flood it.

Here’s some more interesting info. Heat ruins saws. How do you get rid of it? A few ways.

1. Keep your blade as sharp as possible. Believe it or not, pulling a dull blade will overheat your saw. You will ruin the cylinder, piston, and possibly other things inside the engine. When that happens, you have a parts saw.

2. Ask around and see what knowledgeable people think about your saw’s factory exhaust. Some saws have pretty restrictive exhausts, and they contribute to heat. There are known ways to fix this, and they are simple.

3. If you have an old-fashioned bar with a lube port, lube it.

My saw runs like an F1 car now.

Echo CS590’s come with plastic caps on the carb screws to keep people from adjusting them too far. You will eventually want to get rid of these caps and adjust the saw correctly, but this will probably violate your warranty, which is generally regarded as worthless anyway. It doesn’t even apply to carbs.

The carb has a main jet with a hole in it to prevent it from running too lean, and this causes problems. You can buy a better main jet, pound the old one out, and pound the new one in.

I put a bigger carb (from the 620P) in my saw because it allows for upgrades later on. I’m also getting a new exhaust deflector to reduce back pressure and heat, and I will be putting two small holes in the muffler for the same purpose. I’m going to install a new key on the flywheel to advance the timing and give the saw more power.

Once all this is done, I’ll have a saw about as capable as my new twice-as-expensive Husky 562XP, which is not modified. I might put a 24″ bar on the Echo, because it’s the perfect size for this farm. A 20″ bar is a bit handier, though.

I’m going to take the Echo to the shop to have a pro tune it before I use it. If the carb isn’t right, I could damage the saw, and I would rather pay than see that happen. As I learn more about carbs, I’ll be more confident about fixing it.

I found out that 2-stroke carbs usually don’t need full rebuilds. I watched a Steve’s Small Engine Saloon video, and all he did was replace the diaphragms, internal fuel screen, and needle. I did the same things, and my saw started running. I squirted some carb cleaner into appropriate places while I worked on it.

My carb will start if the H and L screws are out 1-3/4 turns, so yours should too, if it has the same carb. Doesn’t mean these settings are optimal, but if you can get the saw to run, you can adjust the screws.

This is a good saw, and for the price, it’s fantastic, but it has a reputation for flooding very easily, and the advice you will get on the web and in the manual will generally make things worse. If you don’t know the secrets, this saw will make you wish you were dead. It’s worse than having no saw at all.

I would advise people to avoid the 60cc Echo saws and get saws that are less troublesome. If you’re a pro, you will not notice any problems with these saws, but an uninformed amateur with dubious tools and skills can make better choices, in my opinion. Any saw that works is better than a garage princess.

A bargain saw that ends up costing you hundreds in parts and labor, in addition to preventing you from clearing your land, is no bargain.

I’ve been relying on new Chinese carbs for a long time, but if I can fix up my OEM carbs with rebuild kits and get good results, I’ll continue doing it. I can’t keep supporting my local shop as though I had two X chromosomes and a dresser full of skinny jeans and yoga pants.

Dignity has its Price, and now we Have a Firm Quote

Candace Owens is smart. Candace Owens is fairly pretty. Candace Owens is thin. Candace Owens isn’t ghetto. She dresses and speaks like a lady.

And she’s conservative.

Kind of looks like these are the only things Ben Shapiro thought about when he took the Candace Owens bait and gave her a job.

Now she has turned out to be an enthusiastic consumer and repeater of absurd antisemitic libels. She has used the word “apartheid” to describe Israel. A nation that has Muslim MK’s and IDF generals. A nation that begged Muslims to stay in 1948.

It’s so stupid, I feel stupid “debunking” it. Is it “debunking” when you tell your three-year-old cartoons aren’t real?

I never accepted Candace Owens. I admit, I thought Ann Coulter was great until I learned more about her, but I was not dumb enough to fall for the Owens show.

The main thing I didn’t like was her secular approach. She has made uninformed, half-baked forays into the promotion of Christianity, but she’s a political person, and her answers to the world’s problems are political. The fundamental problems are supernatural, and so are the answers. She doesn’t know that yet and may never know it. Purely political solutions don’t work.

No solutions work, in the short term. The world is going to descend into chaos before things get better. Yeshua will have to come back to fix the world.

I was also put off by her obsession with angry argument. Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha. Sweet burn. Shutdown. That stuff is childish and doesn’t help anyone. I’ve done plenty of it myself. It was a mistake. She hasn’t learned that.

It’s also important not to get excited by recent converts. By that I mean converts to conservatism. Owens talks about her leftist past, which didn’t end all that long ago. People who were recently leftists tend to be unreliable conservatives, either because they’re lying to get money, or because they haven’t finished the process.

It’s interesting. If you’re black, you can get affirmative action as a conservative political commentator, by criticizing a philosophy that includes affirmative action.

Now we have some pretty hard evidence that Owens is a bit off. She has joined Minnect, an extremely peculiar company that sells phone time with minor celebrities. Other famous Minnecters: Sammy the Bull Gravano, Michael Franzese, and Chazz Palmintieri. It looks like they scoop up non-leftist people who are at least moderately famous but need money anyway.

If you use Minnect, you can talk to Candace Owens and get her advice or just shoot the breeze. Advice on what? Her resume seems to be full of puffery. CEO of this company no one has heard of. Founder of that media organization no one watches. A person who has really made a dent in this world will generally have a resume that makes it obvious. Founded Tesla, the Boring Company, and Starlink. Invented the automotive assembly line. Runs Berkshire Hathaway.

The impression I get is that her lifestyle is on one level, and her current income is on another, so she is willing to risk her reputation to bring in revenue.

How much revenue?

If Internet reports, including purported screenshots, are correct, she originally wanted at least $75,000 per chat. That would have bought you 15 minutes; the minimum. I’ll bet if I try, I can get 15 free minutes with Elon Musk in 60 days.

The reports say she started at $5,000 per minute and dropped to $1500. Now, you can talk to a mid-level political hustler in her mid-thirties for 15 minutes for only $22,500.

You can add time during the call. Oh, boy. Isn’t that how a peep show works? The girl takes off a few things and holds her hands over what you really want to see, and when the blind starts coming down, you know you have to pay up if you want what you came for. “I’ll tell you everything you want to know about my dust-up with Ben, but…oh, no! Your 15 minutes are almost up!”

I doubt it works that way, but I think it’s a certainty that at least some Minnect personalities have made a conscious decision to make calls last longer.

Back during the $5,000 period, her Minnect page supposedly said she had already had 7 chats. So she made $525,000 before anyone even knew what Minnect was.

No. That did not happen. Not unless her husband called 7 times and got refunded. No one on Earth is that stupid and rich. Taylor Swift? Beyonce? Okay; there are thousands of people who would pay that much to talk to them. Candace Owens? Only if she knows some unbelievably wealthy conservative donors who don’t like Jews.

It’s the tip jar principle. You work for tips, but people don’t like to tip people who do what you do. The answer is to take about $30 of your own money and put it in your tip jar. Then other people may feel more comfortable about tipping, because they think others have already done it. I don’t think Owens had a single paid call, and I don’t think any money was spent, but I do think the fake call count was created to fool potential customers.

If she were charging $500 per call, she would probably do okay for a couple of months. She would be busy. As it is, she just looks crazy, and that is not something she needs right now, because the apartheid stuff has already pushed her into the “possible crazy” category of minor celebrities.

It does not look respectable. It looks desperate, which it surely is. It looks tone-deaf. Whatever her brand is, it will be cheapened severely.

What can Candace Owens tell you that justifies paying her money? She’s not an attorney. She’s not a financial advisor. She’s not a therapist. She could give hair, makeup, and diet tips, because she clearly has those areas of her life under control.

I don’t get it.

Franzese is interesting. He’s a former mafioso who was imprisoned for years over an extremely profitable tax-skimming scheme. He may be the only intelligent person who has ever been in the mafia.

Like the fraternity system, the mafia is affirmative action for mediocre white people. It takes people with laborer abilities and puts them in mansions.

He says he’s a Christian now, and he has a popular Youtube channel, but he rarely mentions Christianity. He talks about his life in the disgraceful sewer of organized crime, and he seems proud of it. I have never heard him talk about the Holy Spirit or give people spiritual advice, and I’ve seen a bunch of his videos.

If you’re a serious Christian, and you’re in the public eye, you will talk about God a lot, because he will be the most exciting, interesting thing in your life.

I don’t know how legitimate Franzese’s conversion is, but his Minnect goals seem a lot less delusional. He expects $25 per minute. That should get him some traffic. That’s $375 for 15 minutes, which is a lot, but it’s not implausible.

He’s also more interesting than Owens. What are you going to ask her? I can’t think of anything. Franzese is different. You could try to get him to open up about Jimmy Hoffa or any of a number of famous unsolved crimes. You could ask him what John Gotti was like.

Maybe if you call on the right day, someone will whack Franzese on camera.

I wouldn’t spend $10 to talk to him, because I think bothering celebrities, even minor ones, is weird and creepy. I barely call people I know. I’ve asked for one autograph in my life, and my mother made me do it. I’m sure other people will call him.

Where does Owens go from here? She should have studied up on Israel before making baseless remarks, because now The Daily Wire is gone, and it’s not like she’s popular in the realm of media types who give people jobs. If she were, she would not be on Minnect.

If she had done a little research before speaking, she would have realized the things she has said about Israel were lies. I don’t think she would have spread lies on purpose.

If anyone is interested, I don’t have much wisdom to confer, either, and I’m obscure, but I’ll be happy to give 15 minutes of phone time to anyone who will Paypal me $50,000 in advance. That’s a huge discount from Candace Owens’s rate, and I promise not to say anything antisemitic.

Child Expected to Answer Question Three Supreme Court Justices Can’t Handle: LGBTQΦ(x,t)

Before I stop writing today, here is another video about perversion.

Here is a three-year-old video of a woman who looks exactly like Rachel Maddow. She has two big, sturdy boyfriends or husbands or something, and they are raising a child without giving it (her, I think) any clues as to whether it’s a boy or girl.

The lady says the kid’s gender is something she (I will commit) “will have to figure out and then tell us.”

So this child has Schrodinger’s gender. There is no gender until the child observes it, and then it becomes definite.

Or not. This poor kid will probably cross the line many times throughout her sad life.

The Strangest of Bedfellows

Here’s a video of the song that won the Eurovision contest in 1965.

It may be hard to believe people took this seriously. As you can see, there were no bearded men in women’s underwear on the stage. No shaved male butts. No one simulated sodomy. There was no transvestite content of any kind, nor were there any transparent costumes, men wearing only jockstraps, or ladies wearing items intended to make them look as though they had male genitalia.

What was wrong with these people?

In 2024, Eurovision was more appropriate for our more-enlightened era. Witches. People with perversions too varied, novel, and obscure for me to understand and describe. People insisting on being called “they.”

The contest also featured calls to remove an inherently offensive competitor: the nation of Israel. This nation offends by existing. The judges don’t have the power to annihilate nations, yet, but they could, at least, have spared the contest’s fragile contestants and viewers the sight of a modestly-dressed Israeli Jew standing before decent people–meaning those with piercings, clad in cutting-edge opposite-sex brothel attire that would have shocked Weimar–singing a song that wasn’t even about sexual depravity.

To be more serious, I don’t want to post disgusting photos of the contestants here, but you can see a whole bunch of them on The Daily Mail’s site, itself known for content approaching soft pornography.

LINK.

This year’s winner is a person who calls itself Nemo. It is from Switzerland, and it claims to be non-binary. It appears to be a man, like the majority of truly attention-crazed perverts.

Here is something interesting: many Muslim countries have pulled out of Eurovision, clearly because of the homosexual and fetish content. After all, Muslims are the ones who still execute homosexuals.

Just kidding. They pulled out because Israel was allowed to compete. Some pulled out. Some never joined. In 1977, Tunisia decided not to join because Tunisians didn’t want to “broadcast Israeli content.” They didn’t want to offend Allah by acknowledging Israel’s intolerable, unbearable existence.

That was back when most people in the West hadn’t started opening up about hating Jews for no reason. It’s hard to remember how it felt to live in that world.

Muslim participation now is found chiefly outside the venue, where Muslim and other antisemitic patrons of the arts protest in favor of genocide. Maybe Eurovision should be a quiz show instead of a song contest. They could have contestants try to answer the Jewish Question.

“‘Who is Adolph Eichmann?’, Alex.”

What an amazing synergy. People who murder homosexuals in the streets with their government’s full approval, and homosexuals who post Tiktok videos threatening to kill people who don’t want them to show their genitals to little girls in locker rooms. What would happen to either group if the other were given absolute power?

Satan has won. We have to absorb it. Obviously, he can never win a war, but he has won the battle. He now possesses the world. The next phase will be a supernatural retreat involving the withdrawal of God’s children. After that, God will release demons and fallen angels on the world with almost no restraint, and the people who wanted to be rid of us will crave death. Then, like MacArthur, Yeshua will return, and he will kill so many people, the Bible compares them to grapes being stamped. It says his robe will be wet with their blood.

God’s harvest, the “fullness of the gentiles,” is pretty much complete. So is Satan’s harvest; the future and eternal occupants of the lake of fire. There is just a little harvesting left to be done, and the tribulum is the tool for the job.

The first Eurovision contest of the tribulation may be something to see. Maybe the terror and suffering will not have reached their peak when it airs, and the perverts and God-haters will finally get to put on the kind of show they wanted to give us from the start. Maybe they’ll combine ritual abomination sex with executions.

Am I reaching anyone when I say these things? Few people, if any. Nearly all of humanity is afflicted with supernatural numbness. People should be horrified by spectacles that would have made their grandparents vomit, but they see them as fun and new.

The world is a sore full of pus, and it’s time for the lancet. Christians are accomplishing nearly nothing now. God’s enemies, on the other hand, are sweeping the world suddenly, like Sherman’s troops destroying Atlanta. They are experiencing success they could not have dreamed of even 25 years ago.

Cops walking in the aftermath of an antisemitic mob crime (any illegal takeover is a mob crime) in Texas found something really interesting. They found propaganda, and one of the statements in the propaganda was this: “We will not be satisfied with co-existence.”

What have I been saying? Now I have corroboration. The story of the world is a story of genocide. There are two races: God’s children, and everyone else. Satan wants to get rid of God’s children, and God wants to get rid of Satan’s. Each wants to remove even the memory of the other’s children from the world.

This is why many blind Jews who can’t see their Messiah call Yeshua “Yeshu,” which is code for, “May his name and memory be blotted out.” Not all Jews who use this slur know what it means, but some do. They are repeating a curse reflecting the desire of their father, Satan. Similarly, gentiles who are children of Satan want to remove all Jews and Spirit-led Christians from the world.

All peoples have problems, but the Jews are unusual in that their problems are existential. Most persecuted peoples are threatened with marginalization and poverty and so on, but the Jews have been threatened repeatedly with annihilation. That’s not normal. Oddly, Jews themselves tried to annihilate Messianic Jews while Christianity was in its infancy. Paul was originally in the genocide business, at the behest of the religious establishment in Jerusalem.

Appeasers, both Jewish and gentile, need to understand that there can be no appeasement. Handing over land won’t work. Being nice to perverts won’t work. The final goal of the children of Satan isn’t land or wealth or any of that. It’s the absence of Jews and real Christians from the earth.

People look at the crazies rioting on campuses, and they think, “Kids. It’s always something with them. This will blow over.”

No, this is different. They want to kill us, and they are eager to get started. They will not shrink from it. They don’t have normal empathy. They are sadists. Hurting others brings them pleasure and makes them feel virtuous. It raises their social status, just as it raises the social status of Palestinian terrorists who share photos and videos of people they have raped and murdered.

All the stuff I’ve talked about is coming true, and it will only increase. People need to spend hours in prayer every day, getting God’s revelation and preparing to go.

This is the End, my Friend

Ever heard of Eurovision? I heard of it through Monty Python. A sketch featured a quiz show, and one of the participants, Mao Tse Tung, answered a question about the Eurovision Song Contest.

I assumed Eurovision was a TV network. Then I thought it was the name of a contest. Now I see that it really is a network. In Europe, I suppose.

Right now, the Eurovision Song Contest is taking place in Malmo, Sweden. Entrants from a bunch of countries sing songs, and somebody decides which one is best.

Israel and Australia are competitors this year. So is Iceland. Not sure why it’s called the “Euro” vision contest. Maybe the network is popular in those countries. There must be a lot of people in Israel who are really tired of trying to learn Hebrew.

Speaking of Israel, throngs of demonized people are ruining the contest by waving Palestinian flags and presumably calling for death to this and that country. They booed Israel’s contestant off the stage after about 15 seconds.

A British commentator says perverts are also roaming about outside, calling attention to their genitals in the name of love, inclusion, decency, and in all likelihood, holiness. And maybe the prophet, who can’t enjoy it because he’s in hell.

Speaking of LGBTetc. matters, I saw a really funny African interview the other day. A homosexual was being interviewed, and in a question about the all-inclusive term “LGBT,” the host said, “Where is the H?”

I thought that was brilliant.

The Israeli contestant has to be escorted by dozens of police vehicles, because she is in country largely controlled by hostile, pro-terror Muslims. Sweden.

What would happen to her if the police weren’t there? Go watch the video of Shani Louk. And don’t forget: the people who shot the video and exposed it to the world were the people who stripped, killed, and surely raped her. They were, and are, proud of it.

Queers for Palestine is there. I have a new name for the organization. “Queers for Murdering Lots of Queers.”

They stand up for those who fight genocide by raping Jewish women while mutilating them, and who support Islam by throwing screaming, crying, suspected, untried homosexuals off tall buildings. While proudly filming it.

They are supporting the people who will eventually slaughter them all over Europe while fighting their “real” enemies: Jews who overwhelmingly support perversion and every other leftist mistake.

The Swedes, if you can still call them that, are making some effort to tone down the anarchy, but overall, they are accepting defeat and bending the knee. Sweden was lost a long time ago.

The Jews lost their battle when they rejected Yeshua, and now the gentiles are finished. It’s not a close call. Europe is gone. The Muslim countries are insane. The blue states are never going to recover. India, Japan, Burma, and a bunch of other countries have firmly rejected God. Evangelizing them will not work. It has had its chance. The communist countries that haven’t reformed died inside during the last century. Even where I live, in what may be the most Christian county in America, there are tons of homosexuals. The horse business attracts them like flies. Lots of women with short hair and men who love dressing manes.

Here in the US, senile, lying, unintelligent Joe Biden, whom we elected without coercion, just said people are dying in Gaza because Israel targets population centers with bombs. This is like saying Israel’s problems are caused by eating too much pork. It’s the opposite of true. It’s one of the most antisemitic things I have ever heard from anyone, and he said it on national television. It’s fundamentally the same as the blood libel, but the scale is thousands of times greater.

The ship is taking on water. The pumps are too small, and crazy passengers keep shutting them off. The stern is under water. When is Yeshua going to come lift people off the bow?

It’s so strange, being sane and living in a world where the majority is psychotic. Most people believe whatever the people around them say is true. That’s how they determine what truth is. The real truth has never changed. God knows the truth, and he shows it to his people. We sit in wonder as the mental cases around us insist that men are women and schoolchildren are cats. They throw healthy breasts, the contents of penises they have hollowed out like bagels, and testicles into waste bags, and they call it health care. They keep screaming that self-defense by actual genocide victims is genocide.

The terrible truth is that God hates a lot of people now. People say God loves everyone and hates no one, but the Bible says he hates some of us. He hates the lawless. He hates habitual liars. He really hates slanderers. Satan slanders him all day.

One of the words translated to describe God’s hate has been used to describe people who are unloved. Does God really love everyone? No. The Bible says he will cast the Antichrist and the false prophet into the lake of fire alive. He’s not going to do that out of love for them. They are almost certainly alive now. They are human beings, and he hates them.

The Bible says God is love, but he is also fury and permanent condemnation. The flames of hell and the lake of fire don’t come from Satan. God provides them, around the clock. What God is to you depends on what you are to God.

A gigantic segment of the human population is beyond hope now because they love lies and slander. The idea that lying is a bad idea never enters their excuse-hardened minds. They can’t be saved because they can’t admit fault. An admission of fault is truth.

God hates a lot of us, not just our sins, and he is also aware that many of us can’t be saved, so he has no motivation to keep trying. People who hate him also hate his children, and the longer he keeps helping the wicked through forbearance, the more they hurt us. No father likes seeing his children tormented and killed.

The Jews were taught to leave the corners of their orchards unpicked and to leave fallen grain on the ground. The purpose was to feed the poor. The world is like a farm that has already seen the harvest. Back when billions were willing to listen, harvesting people was easy and fast. Now it’s slow and difficult and produces poor results. God isn’t going to keep investing in it.

I can’t wait to live in a place where things are normal. Every day, people, spirits, and other creatures try to rob me and kill me. I have a list of passwords a mile long because of this. I have locks and alarms. I have guns. I have insurance. I’ve taken vaccines and antibiotics. I use pesticides and mouse traps. I shot a coon in the head. I’ve killed lots of squirrels.

Think how different life would be in a place where people were in agreement about everything and the creatures around us weren’t always trying to murder us.

Imagine knowing you will never have another awkward encounter with an angry man in women’s clothing. Parents, imagine not having to think about countering the filth your kids are taught in schools. Jews…well, do I have to even tell you? Hitler got a third of you, and he had a lot of help from people he conquered. Imagine not being a prey species.

This has to end.

God Hates Displays of Wealth

It’s impossible to trust the government (shocking) when it comes to reports about the prosperity of the American people. For example, it’s possible to have a low official unemployment number when an unusually large number of people are unemployed.

A few years ago, I came up with the Baldor Bench Grinder Index. You go to Ebay and search for used Baldor bench grinders.

When times are hard, people sell their tools. Back during the Clinton forced-minority loan housing crisis, I got a barely-used 19″ Shop Fox band saw for way less than it ordinarily cost. I got a Powermatic 66 table saw with a big extension, Biesemeyer fence, and a punch of pricey blades for $500. Both tools came from cabinetry shops.

When things improve, you don’t see a lot of used Baldor bench grinders on Ebay.

Yesterday, I drove by an auction site. They sell trucks and heavy equipment. I visited a couple of years ago, and the lot was full of junk no intelligent person would buy. Yesterday, there was a lot more stuff. I saw two very nice-looking track loaders (similar to skid steers) right out front.

Today I checked the Baldor Bench Grinder Index. There are a lot of grinders on the market. Maybe 60% more than there were a couple of years ago.

Is the index reliable? I don’t know. The business of selling things online has changed. Craigslist punched Ebay in the gut, and Facebook Marketplace is stomping Craigslist. Seems to me that even if the grinder index had a somewhat low number, it would mean things were not going well. The other sites are taking sales away from Ebay.

Today I saw Charlie Kirk say that 4 years ago, a person needed an income of $59000 to buy a house, and now it’s $106000, meaning you might be excluded even if you have a high-paying profession, such as working at Burger King for $25 per hour.

He said big companies are swallowing up houses and renting them out, driving the purchase prices up. He said lowering interest rates makes things worse by making it easier for corporations to buy homes, decreasing the supply and jacking up prices. I don’t know if that makes any sense, because it also makes it easier for the rest of us to buy homes. Anyway, a lot of young people think they will never own homes.

The difficulty of buying homes and food under Biden, which is indisputable, is a phenomenon we used to call “poverty.” If you had a hard time buying things, we said you were “poor.” Affluence is becoming less common, and poverty is on the rise.

Americans are becoming poor. That’s the short version.

When I was a kid, I heard the term “rich Americans” all the time. When my family visited Europe, the people seemed poor and also short and spindly. Now Americans are descending the ladder of wealth, in terms of net worth. We passed Switzerland, which is number one, per capita. Our GDP per capita is far below Ireland’s, if you can believe it.

I think we are hiding the pain through denial and credit. I sometimes go to fast food joints, where I can expect to pay $13-$25 for a low-quality meal, and I often see a lot of cars in front of them. My county is not wealthy, and I know the people who keep spending on fast food generally can’t afford it. They must be pumping up their credit card balances because they can’t make themselves accept the lower standard of living their incomes now support.

I checked, and credit card debt is now at an all-time high. Adjusted for inflation, the only higher figure was reached in 2008, and we all remember what that was like. Deflation. Prime beef for $7 per pound, because no one could afford it. Shuttered businesses.

I am terrified of debt, so I stay away from it. If I die tomorrow, some credit card companies get a few grand, and that’s it. I don’t know how people can stand lying in bed at night thinking about debt mountains that will kill their estates and leave their heirs with nothing.

On rare occasions, my wife thinks I’m cheap because I won’t pay for something I think is ridiculous, like a Vuitton purse. She always comes to her senses later. She has visited 6 countries with me over 4 years. I don’t expect her to get a job. I try to supply her with more than she needs. She knows this. She has moments when she loses perspective, but she snaps out of it fast.

Lately, God has been teaching me about the evils of ostentation. I believe it’s sinful. I think it turns God against people.

Since purses have already been mentioned, I’ll use them to illustrate the point. A good, durable, classic purse that will last 20 years starts at maybe $300. A $500 purse can be a very good investment. A $2000 purse with little Vuitton symbols all over it is different. It won’t last any longer, and the only thing the extra $1500 gets you is the ability to impress shallow people and hurt the feelings of the poor, who are already humiliated enough.

When I buy boots, I don’t buy $65 Chinese disposables from Rural King. They will hurt my feet, let water in, and fail in less than a year. On the other hand, I don’t spend $1500 on custom-made boots from Oregon. I don’t need them, and I don’t get a good return on the investment. I’ll spend $140-$250 to get something that will last years and do a great job. Very often, $250 boots sell for over a hundred dollars less on Amazon. I have boots I bought over 20 years ago.

Often, buying good, expensive things ends up costing less than buying cheap things. I understand that. And trying to save money has caused me a huge amount of unnecessary pain. But you will never see me in a $500 Gucci baseball cap unless someone puts it on my corpse.

A friend of mine has a diesel Mercedes SUV. I thought he got it because he liked diesels, but now I think he drives it partly for status.

The car has been a nightmare to own. I hate it. It had a persistent limp mode problem for maybe two years. To replace the battery, you have to cut the carpeting or remove the passenger seat. It has cheaply-made engine parts that fail routinely, and they are very expensive to buy. Working on it is pure hell.

I have a Ford and a Dodge. I think they’re both fantastic. Reliable, comfortable, and common, so everyone knows how to fix them, and parts are everywhere. I never asked myself whether my wife would be impressed when she saw it. She was supposed to be impressed with me and the way I treated her, not a machine. But a big percentage of American women–this is incomprehensible to me–are put off by great men in ordinary cars. Incredibly, there are millions of women in American who will have sex with you just because you have a high-end car. That’s worse than being a whore. A whore gets paid.

My friend has an Iphone, which he hates. I asked him why he got it. He said he got it because women like them. I can’t figure out how it feels to think that way. If women started saying they were insanely excited by men in a certain $3 shirt from Tractor Supply, I wouldn’t buy one.

My wife likes Land Rovers. She will never have one if I have to pay for it. They’re unreliable. They cost a fortune. The insurance is high. They only exist to impress people who don’t matter.

My car is now 9 years old. It has fewer than 75,000 miles on it. It has no rust. The interior is good. I may drive it until I die. It has antilock brakes, a bunch of airbags, climate control, and comfortable seats. It was made before spy technology made it possible for the government to shut cars down and helped insurance companies find out how people drove.

What else do I need?

I’m building up her jewelry collection. A woman has to have jewelry. I get her tasteful pieces that look great, but I will never jeopardize our future by buying a ruby the size of a lima bean. Apart from the cost, over-the-top jewelry makes women look shallow. A lot of it makes them look ghetto.

God has given us extraordinary blessings. We have a nice house in a secluded area far from the Satanic lefist and Islamist mobs. Away from the constant parade of murderous, entitled sexual perverts. We have enough wealth. We have good food and clothing. We don’t have to go to work and bend the knee to a system designed to crush Christians.

He didn’t give us these things because we were good people who deserved it. He let himself be tortured to death so he could show his love by giving us all this in spite of the fact that we are failures. If we show off and make other people feel bad, and if we want them to admire us for receiving charity in return for our histories of vileness, then we are provoking God to take it all away and give us what we deserve.

There are tens of millions of Americans out there spending money they have not earned, along with crippling interest, in order to make other people (sincere Kardashian fans and influence-worshipers) think they’re bigger deals than they are. These are the same people who go on Facebook and post photos of their cars and dream vacations. They are the same people who post glowing remarks about their perfect families while they are having screaming fights in front of their kids or losing children to homosexuality and drugs.

I don’t understand the social media liars. Everyone who knows them knows about their failures, and they talk.

I used to go to church with a deacon named Manny. He called himself an architect, and he called his business and architecture and engineering firm. He has never been to college. He’s committing crimes by pretending to be a licensed professional. If he ever tries to design anything, he could get someone killed.

His wife used to post family photos and say how wonderful their lives were. Meanwhile, she texted a friend of mine and said her life was a living hell and she had to get away from Manny.

My wife knows a model from Zambia. She lives in the USA. She posts photos of her expensive things, like $30,000 purses. This is a common thing in Africa, as it is among ghetto people here. Bragging is considered acceptable, and people who do it also make fun of the poor people who comment.

My wife says she just found out this woman is a whore. Are the purses real? Well, she lied about herself, so she’ll lie about a purse. What about the cars? Anyone can stand next to someone else’s car in a picture. Ghetto people do it all the time. Same people who get a hundred singles and one hundred-dollar bill, put the big bill on the top, and fan the whole stack out in pictures so it looks like they have $10,000.

I don’t think it’s evil to drive a nice mid-priced car through a slum. It’s not evil to have a big house as long as it’s not a nouveau-riche status symbol tarted up with things like a helipad. I think it’s fine to go on vacation and use a good camera to take pictures in a poor country. But God surely hates showing off, which is gratuitous. You have to watch it.

I hope that if we really are looking at a permanently lowered American standard of living, God spares his children and helps us to be generous and quiet. With all the other spirits, nations, and people out there trying to destroy our prosperity, the last thing we need is to join them.

I’m going to make a special effort to toe the line and get my wife to do the same.

When the Desire Cometh, it is a Tree of Life

I had an extraordinary experience today. A very good one.

I have lots of trees. They fall down a lot. I have to keep saws in order to deal with them.

When I first got here, a hurricane passed by at a distance, and even though we were not hit, we got winds high enough to knock over lots of large trees. This was about 23 days after my arrival. The previous owners left the property in great shape, and I only got to enjoy it for three weeks before Satan blew his nose all over it.

I had no saw, and after the storm, getting a saw was impossible. Not only were local stores cleaned out; because people had gotten used to Internet shopping, online retailers all over the US were cleaned out. One state did that. It’s a good lesson to remember.

One day not long after the storm, I had a near-miraculous experience. I was stubbornly Googling to find saws, and I found a Jonsered (red Husqvarna) 16″ 40cc saw advertised on Tractor Supply’s site, and it was at a store only 20 or so miles off. I bought it, thinking there was no way I would actually get it. I thought it had to be a website error, or maybe an employee would hide the saw and sell it to a friend or relative. Incredibly, when I went to the store the next day, the saw was there.

I managed to find a 20″ 60cc Echo CS590 online at Acme Tools, and I pounced. Once it arrived, I had two fairly good amateur-grade saws to get me through the job of fixing the property.

I didn’t know much about small engines. I didn’t know:

1. Modern gas is garbage, and that goes quadruple for ethanol gas. If you let ethanol gas sit in a small engine for even two months, you may clog your carburetor so badly it has to be disassembled and cleaned.

2. Sta-bil gas treatment, which is what most people use, is also garbage. It forms a thin protective layer atop gas in your tank, but if your tank ever moves, the layer breaks, and the protection stops until it forms again. Not knowing this, I used Sta-bil.

3. The most important thing to think of when you buy a small engine is the quality of the local repair apparatus. If you don’t have a good repair shop nearby to fix your gold-plated Stihl, you are much better off buying and scrapping three Poulans in a row.

I clogged up both my saws. More accurately, Democrats clogged them up, because they’re the idiots who force the ethanol scam on us, and they’re probably somehow responsible for the fact that even ethanol-free gas is not as stable as it used to be. I have no evidence to back that up, but I’ll bet it’s true, because the whole thing has that Democrat smell about it.

I fiddled with various solutions to the problem. I bought cheap Chinese replacement carburetors to get around cleaning the factory carbs. This sometimes worked well. I kept having problems, though, and around 16 months after I bought the saws, I took the Echo to authorized repair centers, and while they did manage to get it going, they took about three months. When I started using it, screws fell out of the case because they had not been tightened enough, and that cost me more time while I waited for new ones to arrive.

The saws have continued to have issues, and I am part of the problem. I let them sit more than I should have. The more problems I had, the more discouraged I was, so the less I tried to use them, and then I let them sit longer.

I bought an 18″ Makita cordless saw to fill in the gap. I have to say it’s wonderful. It has incredible torque, and it always, always, always runs. With 4 batteries, you can do the kind of job that would take you about two hours with a gas saw, as well or better than a gas saw. After that, you’re stuck with a dead saw, but that’s not so bad, because maybe 95% of cutting jobs involve less than two hours of work.

I’m not saying the saw will run for two hours on 4 batteries. It won’t. I’m saying it will do a job you can do in two hours with a gas saw. Most of the time, when you’re doing a job with a chainsaw, the saw isn’t running. You’re driving wedges or moving around or doing other things.

I have some trees that need work right now. Two oaks are hanging out over a neighboring property, and I have to get together with the people over there and move them. I haven’t been able to get either of my gas saws to work right. The Jonsered surges while idling, making the chain move and making the saw dangerous, and the Echo can’t be started no matter how many tricks I try. I got all sorts of expert advice which does no good.

I have really suffered with these saws. I’ve had jobs pile up on me. I have wrestled with these saws over and over in my shop, exhausting myself and getting filthy, never knowing when the next adjustment or change in procedure might make them work. It’s very unpleasant, walking out to the shop for the fifth time, after four failures to get results, not knowing whether this day will be any better.

I was willing to spend money. I was willing to work on the saws myself. It didn’t matter. I could not get anywhere. I felt that any American with a good net worth should be able to get a saw fixed easily and quickly, but it was an obstacle I could find no way around.

Every time I thought about the problem, I felt frustration. I felt hopeless. I marveled at the difficulty, and even though I was willing to pay for help, I marveled at the cost.

Mechanics now charge about a hundred bucks an hour, which is obscene, but they’re no better than they were when they charged 10 dollars. If you keep taking a $300 saw in, it can turn into a $900 saw before long. What if you buy a $900 saw to begin with, and it has fewer problems, so you save hundreds on mechanics? It starts to make sense after a few years of suffering.

I used to say I would never buy an expensive saw, but over the last week, I have had a change of heart. Getting my Echo saw repaired seemed impossible in this county, and I as getting nowhere fixing it myself. I didn’t want to take it back to the people who held it hostage in the past. I started to think it might be better to get a more powerful new saw, which I needed anyway, and treat it right from the outset. I could buy a brand with a good local repair shop and put my Echo problems behind me.

I tried to get advice on the web. I got some great advice and some stupid advice. People told me this Echo model is a dream saw which always starts reliably. Go Google it and see if you believe that. There are multiple videos of people who have struggled with this saw; they publish their solutions. Other people I communicated with offered solutions I already knew about, which did not work. Others, more helpfully, recommended certain saws to me.

I learned some stuff which may possibly be true.

There are two types of chainsaw: professional (logger and arborist) and bad (homeowner and farmer). An average homeowner can get years of satisfying use from a bad saw, but pros do not like them. They’re less durable, and they tend to be heavier for their size. Drop one from a tree, and you may have to scrap it. They have other shortcomings too.

There are three good brands of chainsaw in America, or maybe I should say manufacturers, since a manufacturer can have more than one brand. The manufacturers are Stihl, Husqvarna, and Shindaiwa (parent of Echo). Stihl and Husqvarna make the best pro saws. Shindaiwa/Echo makes some pro saws, and it also makes the CS590, which has pro guts in a homeowner-saw body. If you shop, you can get a CS590 for around $400. Add over $300 to that for a comparable Stihl or Husky with all-pro construction.

The CS590 is probably a fantastic bargain for people who use saws frequently, know how to prevent them from clogging, and have good repair shops close to them. For me, it was an orange plastic torture device most of the time. I did a lot of things wrong when I got my saw, making it worse, and I had no help.

Yesterday, I finally decided I should get a pro saw and then keep looking for places that could fix the Echo and the Jonsered. A new Echo place had opened up, so maybe there was hope for that saw. I would work it out so I had two big saws, at least one of which would most likely run on any given day.

Based on advice, I decided I wanted a saw with modern electronics in it to make it run better. Husqvarna and Stihl have saws that adjust themselves to deal with things like temperature and humidity. Pros tell me they work better than old-fashioned saws. Husqvarna’s system is called Autotune, and Stihl’s is called M-tronic.

There is a Stihl/Husqvarna dealer 5 minutes from me. I thought that would be a great choice. I would pick a model on the web, go in, ask them how quicky they did mechanical service, and get a price. If they made me happy, I would buy a saw.

I figured I wanted a Husqvarna 562XP or a Stihl MS362 C-M. Big enough to move a 25″ chain, which is exactly what I need.

I went to the nearby place. They were very nice, and they assured me they could turn small repair and maintenance problems around in a week or so, barring the need for hard-to-find parts.

On the other hand…

1. There were three guys there, and none of them knew much about chainsaws. They were not very familiar with the Stihl line. I had to Google and confirm stuff they said. One of them said I needed to visit when the “two-stroke guy” was there.

2. I’m pretty sure they represented a non-M-tronic MS362 as an M-tronic saw. I don’t think they knew it.

3. I asked what they could do regarding price, and they said “nothing.” Stihl sets the price, and you pay it. Over $900.

4. I mentioned Echo, and they said they wouldn’t let an Echo product come through the door. So much for getting my old saw worked on.

5. They’re a Husqvarna dealer, but they don’t sell Husqvarna saws.

In the parking lot, I looked up the next-nearest Husqvarna dealer, and I drove over. Same kind of place. Tractors, saws, zero-turns, and so on. There was one guy there, in a dirty shirt. Young. He worked on machinery, himself. He was the owner.

1. He knew everything about Husqvarna saws as well as Echos. He used to work in an Echo shop. I asked him all sorts of stuff about the 562XP on the wall, and he knew all about it. He knew all the known issues. He knew the best way to cope with the ethanol crisis. He told me stuff no one else had, and I have researched for years.

2. He said he could fix Echo products. No problem. He also does Jonsered, of course. He had a Husvarna 435 there, which is just like my ailing Jonsered. He can fix my bogging Echo trimmer.

3. I asked about the price, and he gave me a 15% discount which wasn’t officially supposed to kick in until later in the month. I asked about the warranty, and he said Husqvarna would add three years if I bought their gas.

4. He told me about the yearly stuff the new saw would need and about what it would cost.

When he told me about the discount, I was sold. He said I only needed to spend $28 on the gas, so I jumped on it. He registered me with Husqvarna. He took the saw, filled it, and checked it out.

I was looking at around $970 for the Stihl without M-tronic. I got the Husky, Autotune, the gas, and a 5-year warranty for about $840, and I finally had a place to get things repaired.

I’m going to bring my sick tools in and get them fixed. Then I’ll have three gas saws and one cordless, so it’s not likely I’ll end up with no saws that work.

When I left the store, I felt like I was high on heroin. The stress left my body completely. The misery of dealing with this saw with no help for 7 years was over. I can deal with the two trees I have to help move this week, and I can expect to have working saws from now on. I can get yard tools fixed.

I’m not doing the sensation justice. A stronghold was broken. It was a very big deal to me. I felt ecstatic. Euphoric. Peace enveloped me. I thought I could feel my blood pressure dropping.

This story shows how to sell saws, both for your own store and for the one your competitors run. The guys at the first saw did as much to sell me this Husqvarna as the guy who got the money. They tried, but I don’t think they’re all that good at sales. They seem like nice people, but the other guy completely outclassed them, like Tyson Fury boxing Kevin Hart.

I may be able to deduct this expense because I rent out my pasture. Sure hope so. I plan to start running every small engine I have, every Thursday, from now on. Once everything is working, I’m going to keep it going without a lot of down time.

That’s the end of my tale of struggle and frustration. Even now, I deflate, breathe out, and sink into my recliner when I think about how relieved I am.

It’s going to be amazing to see everything on the property working.

The Messiah is Trustworthy; the Nations are Not

So now the United States is cutting off ammunition shipments to Israel.

How big a deal is this in relation to prophecy?

All the nations of the world will turn against Jerusalem, which means Israel. This is not my guess. It’s a fact. It’s as true as saying World War Two or the Great Depression happened. When God says something will happen, it’s done, regardless of how things look at the time.

God told us what would happen through the prophet Zechariah, during the 6th century BC.

When have all or even most of the nations of the world been against Israel? Never. Israel ceased to be a nation in 70 BC, and before that, it wasn’t possible for all the nations of the world to have much interaction with Israel. Many had no way of knowing it had ever existed.

The land we now call Israel was deeded over in 1948, and the nations of the world–the United Nations–were behind it. Until this month, at least, there has never been a time when it could truthfully be said that all the nations were against Israel. There were always some powerful allies. In recent decades, America has been number one.

Turning against Jerusalem would have been much less significant during the previous century, because foreigners refused to admit Jerusalem was Israel’s capital. Now Donald Trump has changed all that. America acknowledges Jerusalem’s proper status, so it’s much more clear that opposing Jerusalem is the same thing as opposing Israel as a whole.

It should also be noted that the term “Israel” doesn’t just refer to a place in the Middle East. It’s the proper name for the Jewish people, who are descendants of a man named Israel. The universe and God are patriarchal, and nations use to be named after their fathers.

America used to back Israel fairly consistently, but now a fearful, senile, dishonest, unintelligent, narcissistic old man in our White House is cutting off help to Israel because he knows Democrats can’t hold the presidency unless tens of millions of antisemites vote for their candidate a second time.

Their party has long been the main refuge of openly antisemitic groups and individuals. Most American Muslims are antisemitic, even if a much smaller number favors terrorism. Something like half of American blacks are antisemitic. Hispanics also have a high rate of antisemitism. Anyone who wants to pop up and say my claims are baseless can check The Washington Post, which agrees with me about blacks and Hispanics.

Conservatives are not protesting Israel. This is a generalization, but it’s based on solid facts, just like, “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.”

Virtually none of the antisemitic protestors and rioters ruling universities right now are conservative. American conservative Christians are the main reason our government is as good to Israel as it is. There are antisemitic Republicans, but their numbers and impact are inconsequential.

Jews also vote leftist, but how much do they matter? Jews make up about 2.4% of American voters. Blacks make up around 13%. Muslims make up about 1.1%. Hispanics make up about 19.1%. So around a third of American voters belong to groups that supply most of our antisemites, while Jews make up about 1/40.

Biden may be senile, but he probably understands simple fractions. If you want to prop up your tottering regime, it’s better to offend Jews than antisemites.

Biden is risking driving Jews off in order to hold onto his traditional base of antisemites. He has no choice, if he wants to be reelected.

This is yet another weird, unforeseen consequence of living in a time of razor-thin election margins. They pop up all the time in this age of perfect storms. Sinister synergy is all around us. With regard to elections themselves, they drive candidates to do evil things they would not have bothered with in the past.

He may also be aware that many Jews are self-hating and Jews figure prominently in the antisemitism movement. George Soros is helping fund it. Soros was born in Europe, where he collaborated with Nazis as a teen in order to stay alive. You would think a person who had been compelled to harm his own people and pretend to support Nazis would be enraged with antisemites for the rest of his life.

For a decent person, a situation like that would have been nearly unbearable, and it would have left deep wounds. Somehow Soros went through it and ended up supporting the people who libel Israel as an apartheid, genocidal state for striking back at existential threats from apartheid, genocidal states.

Biden must be aware that many Jews in America are on the side of the terrorists. Maybe that makes him and his handlers more willing to cut Israel loose. He will lose a lot of Jewish votes, but many Jews will be pleased with him and stick with him.

His campaign has done a mathematical analysis. Count on it.

What’s the bottom line? Is Biden’s latest move an indication that Zechariah 14 has started to blossom in earnest, or is it just another labor pain that will go away?

Last year the UN passed a ridiculous, unfair, unwise resolution calling for a ceasefire in the Gaza war. In this context, “ceasefire” means the UN wanted Israel to stop defending itself and give its enemies a little time to regroup and reinforce before unilaterally breaking their word, as Islamists nearly always do. Only 8 nations apart from Israel and the US opposed the resolution, and 6 of them are little powerless countries.

Hamas, not Israel, was solely responsible for the “civilian” casualties among Gazans, and every leader on Earth knew it. A ceasefire would cost Israeli lives by helping Hamas regain strength, and they knew that, too. Israel still ended up with only 9 nations out of 193 on its side.

That’s not a good sign.

Hamas can surrender and stop the bloodshed, for which it bears all responsibility, at any time. Israel, on the other hand, needs to keep Hamas on the ropes so it can go in and utterly eradicate Hamas’s ability to do terrorism. These facts are obvious, but the world still sided against Israel.

Imagine a vote like this in June of 1945, with millions of Allied soldiers preparing to be killed, tortured, and imprisoned in Japan. It could never have happened. Spirits deceive the world about Israel because Satan hates Jews. Israel is special.

What we are seeing is a lot like the problem Israel had with the Amalekites. The Jews were commanded to exterminate every single one, including babies, but they disobeyed, and as a result, the descendants of the Amalekites continued to abuse Israel and are believed to continue to this day. Israel needs to blow up every single Gaza tunnel, confiscate every weapon bigger than a toothpick, and occupy Gaza while installing surveillance cameras and microphones on every block. The UN should occupy Gaza, but it won’t.

If Israel doesn’t do a thorough job, it will have to do the same job again very soon.

I think Zechariah’s words, and the words of Yeshua in the Revelation, are for this time. Israel will probably be overrun within a couple of years, and the rapture will come soon to save God’s children–servants of Yeshua who know the Holy Spirit–from the world. Yeshua said he would save loving Christians from the tribulation, which he calls “the hour of temptation.,” by lifting them off the earth.

Temptation is becoming too strong to be safely endured. We are provoked to anger constantly, along with lust, pride, greed, and the other faults that cause people to be lost. It’s becoming too dangerous for us here, and it’s unpleasant to be vexed, like Lot, by the disgusting behavior of mainstream people.

Even if the situation in Israel blows over for a few years, we will still have emerging generations of sick, twisted haters of Yeshua and Israel. Israel’s friends will die off like World War Two veterans until very few are left. When there are too few of us left to do anything, only God himself will back Israel.

Zechariah said that when Israel fell, the women would be raped and people would go into captivity. Hamas has already shown us that Islamists favor these tactics, so it’s obvious they will be used again all over the country when Israel is defeated. The attack on October 7 was a small-scale model, and we can look at it to predict the future.

Jews all over the world should be unified now, and they should be thinking as though they lived in Germany and Austria in 1930. They are way too undisturbed. They should not be playing around with leftist posing that becomes popular in times of luxury and safety. It’s time to go with what works, but they won’t do it.

Jews are not safe here. NOW. They should be reacting instead of screeching about the imaginary threat of Trump while paying their kids to protest and endanger Israel at colleges run by buffoons.

I can’t wait for this age to end. Americans are going to become more and more disgusting, and the walls of filth will continue to close in on the sane and the aware. It’s going to be like sharing a house with a pack of unhousetrained dogs.

Just not in the Way the Punks Want

I was reading the Bible and praying this morning, and I feel like I got a better understanding of how the Western world in 2024 resembles the disgusting cities of Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis.

Yeshua visited Abraham, along with two other “men.” All three appeared as human beings. Abraham prepared meat for them, and they ate it, which is a good lesson for anyone who thinks God is a vegetarian opposed to all forms of killing. God himself ate veal with Abraham and two powerful cherubs, which are presumably the same cherubs depicted on the ark of the covenant.

Yeshua told Abraham he was going to look at Sodom and Gomorrah to see if the things he had been told were true. Realizing Yeshua intended to destroy these cities, and surely aware of the sexual perversion and cruelty that were going on, Abraham negotiated and got God to agree he would not destroy them if he found 10 righteous men there.

The cherubs went to Sodom, intending to stay in the street all night. Knowing what the San Franciscans and Hamasexuals of the time would do if they could, a horrified Lot begged them to stay in his home. Angels are said to be very beautiful, so they would have been irresistible to the homosexual rapists of Sodom.

The angels agreed, and Lot made them a feast. He served unleavened bread, showing that there wasn’t much time to prepare. This is a parallel to the story of the Passover, another instance of God saving his people by separating them from the incorrigibly wicked.

The homosexual rapists went to Lot’s house like a BLM mob and demanded that the angels be sent out to be raped. They expressly stated their intentions. Lot offered his two virgin daughters instead and begged the perverts to leave the angels alone. The homosexual rapists in the mob decided to treat Lot worse than the angels, and they tried to pull him outside. They showed no interest in normal sex, if rape can be called normal, with the females.

But for the angels, Lot would have been stripped naked and sodomized to death in front of his own house, with his household looking on.

The angels struck the homosexuals blind and told Lot to gather his family and let the angels take them out of the city.

Lot had at least 4 daughters. No sons were mentioned. He had at least two married daughters. Their husbands thought Lot was joking when he tried to get them to leave, so they were under some kind of supernatural spell. Lot left with his wife and two virgin daughters.

Lot’s wife disobeyed God and her husband and looked back during the trip, so she died and was turned into salt. She was destroyed by female rebellion.

It looks like God was willing to spare Sodom for one righteous person, Lot, instead of holding out for 10. Lot’s daughters got him drunk later and committed incest with him, so they probably were not considered righteous.

It may be that there were other righteous people in the group. Lot was wealthy, so he had servants, and his servants would have had families. Judaism and Christianity are patriarchal, and the Old Testament is full of figures who led big households and had servants. If there were other righteous people in the group, they are not mentioned. It is common for the Bible to mention patriarchs without mentioning all the people who lived and traveled with them.

Homosexuals like to say Sodom was not destroyed because of their perversion, but this is not true. The Bible says the sin of Sodom was selfishness, but in Jude, it also says Sodom was destroyed for sexual sin. Also, the New Testament says homosexual acts between men are worthy of death. See Romans. There were plenty of reasons to destroy Sodom.

The main conclusion is that evil societies have earned the death sentence, but God spares them total annihilation because righteous people live in them along with the wicked. This is why God hasn’t destroyed the world a second time yet.

Another conclusion is that God will rain destruction and agony on evil societies right away, once the people who belong to him are clear.

We now live in a world where sexual sin, including some of the most disgusting varieties, is endorsed by many huge nations. We generally haven’t committed to bestiality, incest, and child rape, but these things are getting more common, and “activists” are pushing to normalize them.

The nice thing about this deliverance story, which is a warning about the tribulation, is that it shows that destruction is not for everyone. You can avoid it if you are close to God. The tribulation can’t come while God’s children are still here.

I also read about “dignities.” Jude says God has it in for people who revile them.

Speaking of backward Christians like the prosperity preachers and homosexual clergy, Jude said:

Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.

Likewise also these filthy dreamers defile the flesh, despise dominion, and speak evil of dignities.

So what is a “dignity”? The Greek word is doxa, which is vague. It can mean something like glory or a glorious individual. A person imbued with God’s glory.

Some people say it refers to Satan and other fallen spirits, because Jude says:

Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

Some people say you can’t rebuke a foul spirit or speak evil of them. If that’s true, then you have to wonder why the Bible calls them impure and unclean. It also says we will cast them out, and it says we will tread on them.

To me, it appears that Jude was saying that if Michael was careful even when addressing the lowest of the low, human beings could cause themselves terrible trouble by speaking evil of people who speak for God.

Yeshua, John the Baptist, and the authors of the New Testament said terrible things about corrupt Jewish religious leaders, who were appointed by the Romans for money. They called them vipers and sons of hell, for example. They called them fools, comparing them to the retarded and the insane. They also used disparaging terms to describe sinners and people who didn’t listen. Clearly, then, “dignities” does not refer to all religious leaders or all people.

Based on my knowledge of the whole Bible, I believe Jude was criticizing punks in general. God hates punks. Christians love to say God loves everyone, but the Bible says otherwise. For example, it says he hates all workers of iniquity, and since he poured burning sulfur on the cities of the plain, it certainly looks like he hated the people who remained there after Lot left. I don’t think he loved them. Why would you pour burning sulfur on people you love?

In 2 Kings 2:23-24, God mutilated a bunch of children whose only known crime was making fun of Elisha, his anointed prophet. God, not Satan, brought two bears out to tear them open. In Deuteronomy 21, God told the Jews they could have worthless, rebellious children who ignored their parents executed by stoning, which really hurts and rips people’s heads open. God commanded the Jews to honor their parents, even though he did not say they had to love them, and the penalty was to live under curses, including premature death.

Punks have grandiose self-images which contrast starkly with their merits. They have no respect for people and spirits who are better than they are. They have no empathy. They take pleasure in sadism. They honor the vile, including spirits that hate God. They love to destroy. They persecute and steal from people who build. They can’t build anything for themselves. They reject the wisdom and commands of God and their betters. They love lying, and they punish and kill those who tell them the truth. They accuse better people of things they haven’t done, while denying their own egregious sins. They project their own evil onto people who are better than they are.

It sounds like God has it in for exactly the kind of people who are destroying and taking over America right now. We are inundated with punks who can’t receive correction. To make things worse, they pour out false correction.

God describes some people as worthless.

In the story of Naboth, Jezebel hires two worthless men to testify falsely against him. They said he had cursed God and King Ahab. Why did she do this? Ahab wanted Naboth’s vineyard, which Naboth had built, and Naboth did not want to sell. You can see how Jezebel resembles today’s leftist punks. Someone else built something and owned it, and she wanted it, so she made a lying accusation, destroyed the builder, and took what he built. Ahab got reparations.

The Bible uses the phrase “sons of Belial” to describe the false witnesses. Belial is a worthless spirit. His name means “worthless.” In the Bible, to be called the son of someone is to be said to be like him.

In the Old Testament, God calls the sons of Eli worthless. In Judges 19, God refers to the members of a Jewish homosexual rape mob in Gibeah as worthless, and later on, their tribe is wiped out.

“Belial” refers to Satan, who is, himself, worthless.

The Bible also uses the word “unprofitable” to describe worthless people. No matter what you do for them, they don’t change and become assets to the kingdom of God. In other words, they do not listen.

I have often said that God told me, “Hell is not full of ‘bad people.’ It’s full of people who don’t listen.” Hell is full of priests, rabbis, and popes who didn’t listen, but there are former rapists and murderers in heaven.

The children defiling our cities by testifying falsely against Jews, whites, men, Christians, conservatives, America, people who have assets, and everything and everyone else they can slander are children of Belial. They are making themselves worthless. The adults in government, the press, and the arts who support them are making themselves worthless. The world is filling up with worthless people who torment people who have humility and want to obey Yeshua.

The world is becoming unprofitable. God showed me that this is what precedes and motivates the rapture and the tribulation. God looks down, sees that traditional evangelism no longer produces a sufficient profit, notices that his people are being abused terribly without a good return on the investment, and pulls his children out. Then his fury pours out almost as it did on Sodom, except that he softens the blow enough to let some people live and change their minds.

Think of a grain of wheat. Most of it is worthless as food. The part that keeps you alive, and which has life in it, is in the interior. The husk is dead. This is why God compares worthless people to chaff. In tribulation, a tribulum crushes the husks of grain and removes them from the useful part, and then the husks are blown away and burned.

The kids in the tent camps are committing the sin Jude spoke of. They are reviling dignities. Their elders, Yahweh, people of good character, Christians, anyone who is anointed…everyone whose counsel can save them from hell.

Satan’s leftist and Islamist dupes now have cursed lives because they have done what the kids who made fun of Elisha did. In the supernatural realm, spirits are coming out to do the work of the bears. They won’t maul them, but they will do worse things. They will bring them things like poverty, addiction, criminal convictions, perversion, diseases, and the shortening of their lives, and the Islamists and kids who don’t repent will burn in the lake of fire forever.

Ironically, the people they abused will get reparations, and the world will be free, which is reminiscent of the slanderous chant about the river, the sea, and Palestine.

The Bible says Lot was vexed and oppressed in Sodom. Does that sound familiar? The chant kids and their allies vex decent people all day, every day. They get us fired from jobs. They ruin our businesses. They put their hands on us. They take over our schools. They dox and terrorize us. They demonize us. Because they have made themselves worthless by shutting their ears and praising themselves, there is nothing we can do to change them, so we sit at a distance and watch and wait for the end.

Of course they complain of genocide. They’re right in a way they don’t understand. God is going to commit genocide against them.

Israel is not genocidal, and the Jews didn’t steal land. The Jews begged the Arabs to stay in 1948, and other Arabs forced them to leave and to turn to actual genocide, which continues to this day. But God really is genocidal. He has done it before, and he will do it again. The punks falsely accuse their betters of genocide, and they deny the obvious antisemitic genocide they are calling for, and God himself will eventually do what they accuse Israel of doing. The punks will not be here for long.

It may sound strange to call God genocidal, but it’s obvious and undeniable. Read about the flood. Read about Sodom. Read Exodus. Read the Revelation. It shouldn’t be controversial.

We are not going to cleanse the world by buying rifles and ammunition. Cleansing the world is not our job, and we can’t do it anyway. God himself will do it. God told Yeshua to sit at his right hand while he made Yeshua’s enemies his footstool. He never told Yeshua to stand on his front porch and shoot people.

Satan Cribs Again

The other day I was reading Zechariah, and I believe I saw where, “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” came from.

This slogan is a call for the murder of every Jew in Israel and the theft of every hectare of land.

Satan is like Joe Biden: a plagiarist. He can’t come up with anything original. He always copies God. It appears he came up with the pro-genocide slogan to mock what God said through Zechariah.

In discussing the Messianic Age, which is the period that follows the tribulation and in which Yeshua is physically present on Earth to rule, God said this:

Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.

And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from the river even to the ends of the earth.

Satan wants to rule through the Antichrist, so naturally, he stole words predicting the rule of the Christ; the Messiah.

Old Hippies Get What They Sowed For

When I was a student at Columbia College, my friends and I did a lot of stupid things.

Columbia has a round disk of stone and brass in the center of the Morningside campus. It’s just the right height to sit on. For some reason, I have always remembered it as having decorative panels featuring zodiac signs, but Wikipedia says they actually depict phases of the day. People call it the sundial, but it doesn’t indicate the time. It’s flat on top, so there is nothing on it to cast a shadow.

When I was at Columbia, the kids used to have a fake Satanic sacrifice on the sundial every year. I think they did it at midnight. They would find a girl who pretended to be a virgin, and a guy would dress as the devil and pretend to sacrifice her while she lay on the sundial. I would love to tell you more about a couple of the actors who participated in this, but I suppose it wouldn’t be a good idea, since they are real people.

I wasn’t part of the sacrifice crew, but I did show up, probably drunk, to watch.

We also watched pornographic movies the university helped sponsor. There was a building called Ferris Booth, and it had a big area that could be filled with tables. Musical acts could perform there. One year, some organization showed Bel Ami and Behind the Green Door there, and I was in attendance. Definitely drunk.

It’s hard to believe, but there was once so little porn, people actually recognized the names of movies.

I got arrested once for grabbing a bookdrop in front of Butler Library, pulling it over on its face, and dragging it some distance. Drunk. I was wearing a pair of fake glasses, and I had been to a Heineken promotion. I had a giant plastic promotional bottle cap stuck to one lens as I tried to sweet-talk the campus cops and convince them I was a responsible person who didn’t need to accompany them to their offices.

My friends and I set off a lot of fireworks at Columbia. We released live crabs in an elevator. We saved two turtles from a Chinatown wet market and put them in the university’s decorative fountains.

I took a vertebrate anatomy course. I was given a dead cat. The building I lived in had an elevator with a panel that was missing one button. There was just a hole. I took the cat’s severed tail and stuck it in the hole so it looked like the the rest of the cat had been sucked through it.

We did plenty of stupid things, but we never took over a building for the purpose of slandering Israel and threatening and assaulting Jewish students, and we never took any university employees and made them our hostages. It appears the current crop of students has done these things. They took over Hamilton Hall, a classroom building.

Hamilton was the site of a lot of useless classes in subjects such as literature and history. Even back then, you could learn all you wanted about literature and history by going to a library, and now, you can learn using free materials on the web. You can even watch lectures, which are just as effective as lectures attended in person. You don’t really need to pay $10,000 to read and understand 10 novels.

If memory serves, there were also some classes which had more reason to exist. Language classes, for example. Still, you can go to Berlitz and pay a lot less than $10,000 for a class. You can use a phone app for nearly nothing.

Overall, Hamilton was a place where people went to waste their parents’s money and prepare for careers as fungible white-collar workers in cubicles. Either that, or they could become academics and help future parents waste their money.

Now they are wasting their parents’s money (and your money, thanks to Biden’s loan schemes) trying to destroy the only refuge the world’s Jews have and contributing to the destruction of the Jews themselves.

A sexually convoluted former student named Khymani James appears to be one of the leaders of the revolt. James was expelled recently for calling for the murders of people who supported Israel.

When I wrote about James earlier, I expressed dismay that Columbia had not reigned him in, but now I see that it has. My question: why?

When I was at Columbia, it was not long after the famous Columbia riots. I think these took place in ’68 and ’72, but I am not going to bother to look it up. Students rioted because of the Vietnam War or something. Maybe they were mad because their parents made them eat vegetables. Like Marlon Brando said in The Wild One, “What do you got?”

Rebels often preexist their causes.

Faculty members who had participated in the riots were admired. They were proud of it. Students looked up to rioters. There was a sense that we had missed out, and were somehow inferior to the rioters, because we hadn’t been there.

I think this atmosphere of willful, infantile stupidity contributed to what’s happening at Columbia now. I think the kids who are abusing Jews and damaging property are excited because now they, too, have rioter status.

Columbia is a lawless place. It encourages civil disobedience, which is nothing but lawlessness. It’s crime. You’re supposed to use the First Amendment and the voting booth to manipulate society. You’re not supposed to commit crimes. Blocking traffic, throwing paint on people in fur coats, and taking hostages are cheating.

People who do civil disobedience are election deniers. They want to deprive people who vote against them of their constitutionally-provided power.

I’m sure the administration loves lawlessness. I don’t think a person who didn’t love it could get hired in Columbia’s culture. So how come they expelled bro Khymani? Why are they now suspending other students?

My guess: it’s all about the do-re-mi.

Columbia’s student body has been heavily Jewish for decades, and it’s not an “antisemitic trope” to say there are a lot of very wealthy Jews. It’s a fact. It’s also not a trope to say Jews are big philanthropists. Many Jews have left Columbia, done well for themselves, and (mysteriously, to me) gone on to make multimillion-dollar donations. Now some of them have turned off the tap.

If billionaire Muslims were Columbia donors, and they were threatening to cut off the cash if Columbia bothered the brats, would Khymani still be a trespasser instead of a student? I wonder. Columbia has tolerated all sorts of hateful speech, including threats, for years. Hateful speech is not new there. What’s new is responding to it with disciplinary measures.

I’m not impressed by Columbia’s sudden decision to do what they should have done long ago. I think they’re just whoring out. In America, this is what college administrations do. They admit stupid rich kids whose parents donate. They rename old buildings named after great men for anyone who will write a check. I think Columbia is just changing course because, while it was fun to pretend to be warriors, things looked different when they started hearing metaphorical bullets whizzing by their ears. It’s always fun to be a social justice warrior when it requires no guts whatsoever, and it actually enhances your income and prestige, as any famous actor could tell you. When there is a cost, only the sincere remain standing, and they are few in number.

I don’t know if oppressed black trans Khymani will be arrested for what appear to be crimes like trespassing, battery, false imprisonment, and vandalism, as privileged white me was arrested for the very serious crime of knocking over a book drop, but I’m pretty certain that if he or she is, there will be no bail and no trial. This is Manhattan, where you can be fined half a billion dollars for negotiating with a bank, but you can literally shoplift and be arrested 5 times in the same day if you hustle.

I can’t believe I chose to go to Columbia. What was I thinking? I wish I could go visit my high school senior self and punch him in the face.

Pay Up

Is it antisemitic to say a person looks Jewish?

I ask because I saw a remarkable video about antisemitic protests in New York.

The answer to the question is “no.” It is not antisemitic to say a person looks Jewish, any more than it is wrong to say a person looks Far Eastern or white.

Google photos of Barbra Streisand and deceased New York mayor Ed Koch. Case closed.

Yesterday, I saw an amazing thing. There was a protest at NYU, in New York City. This, incidentally, is a backup school for kids who can’t get into Columbia.

Someone interviewed a couple of girls who were visiting from Columbia. They were very gung ho about protesting Israel. One girl wore a mask to hide her identity and insulate her from repercussions from her shameful, idiotic behavior. The other showed her face. No question about it. She is Jewish.

The person with the camera asked them about their objections to what was happening in Gaza, and they admitted they didn’t know much of anything about the situation! But there they were, protesting and fanning the flames of antisemitism. One said she wished she were better educated. I wish that for her, too.

In various places on the web, I have been asserting without proof that Jews were out there protesting Israel along with the other antisemites, and now you see why I was bold enough to do that. If the Jewish people were one person, he would have been on suicide and self-harm watch since leaving Egypt. The Jews have a long history of helping their enemies and fighting their friends. I knew some of them would support Hamas. Questioning it would have been asinine.

Dathan has more children than Moses.

Why do I say “the other antisemites”? Because Jews who join the protests are antisemites. Jews can be antisemites if they want.

In related news, a black man named Khymani James, who claims to be some other flavor of sexual being (unclear) is getting attention for calling for Zionists (like me and, for that matter, God) to be murdered.

James is a typical Columbia student. He gets attention by saying stupid things that impress leftists who have no brains. He has said, “Zionists don’t deserve to live.” Defending his remarks later, he said, “I feel very comfortable, very comfortable, calling for those people to die.” He supports the murder of Benjamin Netanyahu.

He also says he carries a gun, even though there is no way he has a permit.

Far as anyone can tell, this dangerous nut is still a student in good standing. Columbia will not reveal what, if any, discipline he has faced. They made me leave for a year for shooting harmless bottle rockets out of a window, so now you have a basis to form ideas about their priorities.

Finally, in today’s list of horrors, a genocidal crank at George Washington University in DC was spotted carrying the Palestinian flag and a sign calling for the “final solution.” This phrase, for all you kids who were educated by false-breast-wearing men and Tiktok, refers to the murder of every single Jew on Earth. This is the “solution,” and Jews are the problem.

Their EXISTENCE, not their behavior, is the problem that must be fixed, according to the guy with the sign.

The man with the sign was not attacked or driven off, as far as I can tell from the news. That means he’s better off than Jews who have been attacked by racist protesters like the Jewish girl at NYU, and he’s also better off than the Jew in London who was told by racist police to leave a rage-filled protest because he was disturbing the peace.

I wonder what peace the police were referring to.

People who don’t know the Holy Spirit have no idea what’s going on. It has never been about coexistence. Ever since the human race was contaminated by servants of Satan, it has been about exterminating the people who belong to Yahweh. People, including many Jews, think the turmoil will end if there is enough appeasement. Give the savages this piece of land and that piece of land. They’ll be satisfied. That’s not how it works. The other side’s goal is to end Jewish existence, and they also want to remove Christians from the world.

Jews love to appease. They keep giving things away. They even gave the Egyptians the entire Sinai peninsula, which contains oil wells, after the Egyptians lost it in a racist war of aggression.

American Jews are the worst appeasers, because they are terrible virtue-signalers, and because they don’t have to deal with terrorism every day, the way Israelis do. They think their grandchildren will live in big houses in New Jersey and Miami, holding hands and singing Joni Mitchell songs with the friendly gentiles they have pacified. They think October 7 was just a speed bump. A temporary disturbance that will be put behind them, just like the 1948 war.

What’s happening now will wake some, but not most, of them up. Suddenly, the threat of terrorism and genocide isn’t a far-off thing that only happens to crazy zealots who leave rich America and Europe to live in a shaky country where they make you serve in the army and you can’t get a decent bagel. Now you have to ask yourself if you want to wear your yarmulke when you go out for lunch. Is it worth risking a beating? You have to ask yourself if your kids should go to Columbia, the best school in New York State, where they may be spat on and otherwise abused.

Columbia has long been a haven for Jews. A pogrom at Columbia is like a Trump rally in Martha’s Vineyard.

It’s not a speed bump. It’s not going to blow over. It’s going to get worse.

The New Testament, which is not read by many Jews even though it’s a Jewish book written by Jews and for Jews, about a Jewish God, explains what is happening.

Yeshua, the rejected Jewish Messiah, has now been rejected by the vast majority of gentiles as well as Jews. The 2000-year period of evangelism is over. If the world were a restaurant, employees would be putting chairs on the tables right now.

Satan has received the popular vote once again, and Yeshua is returning as an election denier. God hates elections. He hates democracy, which came to us from boy-molesting Greeks. God is a monarch, and he is returning to claim his kingdom.

The Bible says the tribulation will be terrible, because Satan knows his time is short. When the tribulation ends, he will be bound in hell for a millennium, so he is getting his last licks in now. He is throwing a tantrum like a leftist protester who doesn’t want to go into a police van.

Satan is even more furious than usual, and he is also terrified. He is going to do as much harm to Jews and Christians as he can before his humiliation begins.

Jewish religious authorities haven’t heard from the Holy Spirit since about 400 BC, so they have no idea what’s going on. They make wild guesses for a living, and a lot of their work is based on the faulty, blasphemous premise that Yeshua is not the Messiah and not God, although Isaiah said he was both. If Jews still heard from the Holy Spirit, as they used to, they would be talking about the end and the millennium just as Christians are.

They don’t know the Bible well. Not even the Old Testament. They are taught not to study it too much. They are told that if they try to understand it without help, they will just get themselves in trouble. They might even come to the horrible conclusion that Yeshua is who he says he is.

They listen to arrogant old men who read what other arrogant old men have written. Wow…am I writing about the Jews or about most Christians? Same thing. Most Christians are in the same boat. That’s why we have homosexual priests. I mean the kind who admit they’re homosexual.

The Old Testament says to meditate on God’s word, which is the Bible. The rabbis say to meditate on the Talmud, the Zohar, the Gemara, and the Kabbalah. Hmm.

If God’s word is good, why is it better to read things Jews wrote after God destroyed their nation? Obviously, those Jews were doing something wrong.

Spammers used to try to sell me Oprah’s diet tips. Oprah was enormous. Depending on the year and month, she might have been as big as 250 pounds. She finally lost weight at the age of 70, way too late to enjoy it, by taking a drug and lying about it, while serving on the board of Weight Watchers and urging other people to rely on discipline.

The spammers still thought I would buy her diet tips. It’s a bad idea. It would be like listening to clergymen who haven’t heard from God in 2400 years.

It’s going to get worse. The Holocaust is starting up again. New York and Miami Beach aren’t going to protect anyone. Judging by Zechariah 14, neither will Israel. It’s a very bad time to double down on rejecting Yeshua and the Holy Spirit.

Yard and Household Junk Fills in for Professional Models

As part of my preparation for a foreign trip which has been either delayed or canceled due to the difficulty of getting a visa for my wife, I improved my camera equipment. I got a better strap for my Canon 200D, and I got two zooms. A 10-18mm and an 18-135mm. I have been fooling with them. Might as well learn how to shoot, even if I have to do it in my yard for the time being.

The theory behind buying lenses for a 2017 camera which is not as good as my 2023 camera is that the 200D is lighter and would be less painful to lose than the new one. It will take excellent photos, even if the new camera might do somewhat better. Sometimes excellent is good enough.

I thought the wide lens would be good for indoor pictures in certain circumstances. You don’t always have the ability to back up far enough to take a scene in with a long lens, so you can lose shots. Someone questioned my choice, wondering why anyone would travel with a wide lens. I don’t know much about the subject, but it seems to me anyone who spends a lot on important trips would want versatility instead of falling back on a cell phone to take shots his camera’s only lens couldn’t handle.

I figured the longer zoom would be very, very versatile, so even if it didn’t give me the absolute best image quality, it would be a good choice for travel. Again, excellent can be okay.

As for what “best,” means, I don’t know. A lot of people are obsessed with super-sharp photos, and the zoom I turned down when I got the 18-135mm is sharp. It looks like a lot of lenses that aren’t considered very sharp these days are actually sharper than overly-picky people let on. Also, there is a program called Topaz that can improve the apparent sharpness of photos. I guess it’s a cheat, but then every digital camera is a big box of cheat.

There is a lot more to good photography than brutal sharpness, and sometimes you want a photo to be a little less forward-looking.

A lot of history’s best-loved photos aren’t extremely sharp.

I took a few shots with each lens. I’ll be trying to do more.

I really like photography, and I should have gotten more deeply into it 18 years ago, when I got my first real DSLR. Had I done that, I would have a huge collection of great photos now, and I would know more about creating great photos.

Here’s something weird: editing and looking at my own photos is extremely relaxing. I don’t know why. I can sit and stare at a photo I shot for a long time, feeling my blood pressure drop, even if the photo isn’t really good. This isn’t true of every photo I take, but it’s true of the ones that have some not-always-definable qualities I like.

I was desperate for things to shoot today. The light was fading when I started, and there wasn’t much out there. Or maybe I didn’t have the imagination to see what was out there. I took some shots of a few objects to see what the lens could do.

When I came in, I fiddled with editing software. I have started shooting raw files, which means my camera saves files just as it sees them. Ordinarily, cameras save in formats like jpg, which are actually pre-edited by the cameras to make them look better. A jpg may look nice, but when a jpg is created, you lose a lot of data, and that limits what you can do when you edit.

I wanted editing software so I could shoot raw, so I looked for advice, and I ended up getting Adobe Photoshop Elements. I don’t like it. The interface makes no sense at all, so I am constantly having to figure out how to do what I want to do.

Another problem: for some reason, Adobe’s program damages raw files as you edit. When you edit a text document, there is no permanent change until you save it. When you edit a photo with Photoshop, the file is changed, so you lose things. That’s annoying. There has to be some reason for it, but it sounds stupid to me.

Right now, I’m trying Affinity Photo 2, a competitor’s program. Unlike Photoshop, it can be bought. You can only rent Photoshop, and it costs $10 per month. Next year, it will probaby cost more. You can get Affinity Photo 2 a lot cheaper, paying only once.

My understanding is that Photoshop is better, but I’m not a pro, and I’m not doing extreme things. I crop and fiddle with color and sharpness and so on. I’m not trying to simulate psilocybin trips. I may end up buying Photo 2.

I think Adobe’s Lightroom would have been better than Photoshop. I made a good effort to find out what I needed, and Photoshop came out on top, but now I think I was wrong. Lightroom is supposed to be less powerful but easier to use, and it helps you organize photos. Lightroom is another rent-only program, so I am averse to trying it.

You know what they say. “You will own nothing, and you will be happy.” Yeah, and arbacht macht frei. Saying something stupid to people you want to control doesn’t make it true.

I like owning stuff.

I’ll put up a few photos I really like looking at. First, the 10-18mm zoom, and then the 18-135mm.

Here is a hat I bought in Cancun, along with a 2006 DSLR lens I haven’t been able to cleanse of cockatoo dust.

Don’t ask me why. I enjoy looking at it. The composition could be better, and the only story the photo tells is, “I needed to take a picture to test a lens,” but I still like it.

I took a shot of a tire inflator in my workshop. It’s sort of a macro shot, which is not what you should do with a wide lens, but it was there, so I took the picture. The detail is not too bad, considering. The shot you see is not as clear as the original, because I reduced the size a great deal so I could post it.

These shots were edited, painfully, with Photoshop.

While I was shooting with the 18-135mm, I found a few objects I could use. Once again, I acted like I had a macro lens. I shot a couple of magnolia blossoms. I edited the shots in Photo 2.

I didn’t think much of these photos when I took them. I was just trying to see what the lens would do. After I edited them, though, I found them oddly engrossing.

I boosted the color a little, and I increased “clarity,” which may be the same thing as sharpness for all I know. Jacking up clarity brought out the weird veiny features in the petals. If you bring them out too much, the blossoms start to look like something from a Frankenstein movie.

They don’t really look like they do in these photos, and I guess that’s what makes photography an art.

The lens I used is not supposed to create bokeh, the creamy blurriness you see in the background of the second shot, but I tried to create it, and I got it. Not sure how that happened.

I thought these shots would be terrible, because I wasn’t thinking much about composition and so on, but they’re much more pleasing than expected.

I’m going to try to get out there and shoot more stuff. I have a habit of shooting small things, because the big things I have around here aren’t that interesting. I need to try to make them interesting.

I think this is a great hobby for people who want to decorate their houses but don’t want to spend a lot on art. A good original photo, blown up to painting size, runs about $17, and it’s a lot more interesting than a cheesy Van Gogh print or a lithograph by some artist who never sold anything for more than $500 except maybe a lawnmower on Craigslist.

If you photograph people you care about, so much the better.

I don’t plan to put photos of the wife up here, but we have 4 huge photos of us on our walls, and there will be more. I also have shots of friends and their kids, as well as my pets.

This is not a hard hobby. It may be hard for me to create pictures other people like or respect, but I can take photos I like all day long.
