How You Aren’t Like The Rest & Why That Shouldn’t Surprise You By  Allan Stevo Did you really think this was the culture that would say “No!” to the jab? Because a lot of people write me in a state of total disbelief. That’s a problem. Disbelief enfeebles you. It makes it hard to assess reality and respond accordingly. Analysis paralysis writ large. At least 2/3 of would-be freedom fighters are stuck in a state of disbelief, which is exactly where your opponent wants you. They call themselves freedom fighters, but watching videos online is not freedom fighting. Clicking around for the next jaw dropping example of degeneracy is not freedom fighting. It, again, is where your opponent wants you. How The Food You Eat Paved The Way For This You may be shocked that so many people fell for the jab. Really? Is that really a surprise. Really?

Oh, the irony... Switzerland, Facing an Unprecedented Power Shortage, Contemplates a Partial Ban on the Use of Electric Vehicles It turns out that you can have battery-powered cars, or you can have renewable energy, but you can't have both. eugyppius The Swiss Confederation usually imports electricity from France and Germany to keep the lights on over the winter, but this year neither country has any power to spare. Many French nuclear power plants are down after years of postponed maintenance, while in Germany we suffer from a superfluity of idle wind turbines and a (self-imposed) shortage of natural gas. The Federal Council of Switzerland  has therefore published draft legislation , which  outlines four tiers of escalating measures to conserve electricity and avert potential blackouts . The first prescribes a lot of temperature restrictions for things like refrigerators and washing machines. The second includes more unusual rules, such as the demand that heating in clubs and...
