Many of my foundational beliefs lay in ashes after this year of revelation. Is there any truth in media? Here is a list of people I think are telling the truth or have told the truth. Look them up.
Dylan Avery, writer and director of Loose Change
Tom O’Neill , author of Chaos
Xavier Poussard, researched the Macron family and Epstein
Thomas Hinman Moorer, Navy Admiral, whistleblower for the USS Liberty sinking
Nikolaus (Miklós) Grüner, Holocaust survivor, author of Stolen Identity, A-7713
G. Edward Griffin, author of The Creature from Jekyll Island
Antony C Sutton, author of America’s Secret Establishment: An Introduction to the Order of Skull & Bones
Economy Rewind? … Who are they exactly? Seem like real opposition.
Questionable Mention
John St Julien Baba Wanyama? Comments on world events, especially about bankers and deception. He has some wild ideas, but he talks about bankers running the world and directly addresses the deception. He’s a little too good, speaks with a little too much authority, shows up a little too much in the algorithm, runs an orphanage, and believes in aliens. Believing in aliens gets you kicked off this list.
The following appear to be independent events. I don’t think so.
11 August 2025: National Guard troops deployed in Washington DC.
1 Oct 2025: government shutdown began.
1 Oct 2025: National Guard troops deployed in Chicago.
~ Oct 2025: National Guard troops deployed to Memphis and various other US cities.
20 October 2025: AWS outage.
~30 Oct 2025: rumors of top officials, including Marco Rubio, moved to military bases for security.
1 Nov 2025: federal government SNAP payments lapsed, affecting food supply of 40 million + Americans. Federal judge challenged, Trump insisted as of 9 November.
4 Nov 2025: UPS plane crash in Louisville, KY. The plane crashed on take-off with the video showing an engine fire prior to the crash and media immediately blamed it on ATC shortage.
4 Nov 2025: solar flares reported (pretext for EMP).
7 Nov 2025: flights cancelled en masse, due to ATC shortage, government shutdown.
8 Nov: 2025: my in-laws noted that the flight cancellations news “feels like the beginning of COVID”. Feelings like this are relevant. News is designed to manipulate feelings.
Lots of JD Vance in the media, as though we’re being primed for him to take over.
Two people have told me they had noticed before I contacted them that their ads were showing them survival equipment and supplies.
10 November 2025: geomagnetic storm warning issued for 11 states north of the 45th parallel: Oregon, Idaho, Montana, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.
11 November 2025: for the first time in my life, aurora caught my attention while driving. I thought the geomagnetic storm was 100% made up fake. I was wrong about that apparently – kind of maybe – but what I did not know is that the government actually does have a transmitting antenna array for the purpose of producing aurora, HAARP. Supposedly the artificial aurora are dim and localized, but many have speculated since HAARP was created that it can produce global aurora. I think it’s actually plausible with enough power to do that. Humans produce light that’s visible from space, why not aurora light? It’s just a huge light show resulting from radio waves, and as we know radio waves can travel around the world.
12 November 2025: Trump announced the end of the penny as a coin.
13 November 2025: government shutdown ended after a total of 43 days.
15 November 2025: Operation Southern Spear, 15,000 troops moved into position near Venezuela with media hyping Trump aggression. Trump approved covert operations in Venezuela.
15 November 2025: riots in Mexico City. Media linked to potential Trump aggression.
18 November 2025: Coudfare outage.
19 December 2025: comet 3I/Atlas scheduled to make its closest approach to Earth. Aliens have NOT visited Earth and have no plans to do so. However, many aren’t sure about that, so this comet is definitely part of the plot. I expect mankind’s first encounter with aliens to be unfriendly. (This comet is probably the #1 thing people have contacted me about in relation to this whole thing).
Who?
The question of whocan do something like this will remain the most difficult to answer. Short answer: the power brokers of the world, whoever runs the media and buys politicians. The scapegoats to be framed are Donald Trump, Russia, China, and cyber attacks by rogue AI.
Pay special attention to incidents that are blamed on Trump. We have grown accustomed to problems being blamed on Trump and I think most of this will be blamed on him.
Why?
Devalue the US national debt by devaluing the dollar. See here.
End the US dollar as the reserve currency.
End the Bretton Woods US system.
Transition to a global digital currency like a CBDC.
Justify a more global government.
Justify sweeping surveillance systems like Palantir.
Justify national or global ID system, possibly implanted chips.
***Please note*** if nothing happens, which is certainly possible, these precautions are barely inconvenient. I am just saying if there is ever a time to be a little more prepared, now is the time.
When: starting between 30 November 2025 – 2 January 2026. I’m actually going to put a tighter date on this: 15-19 December 2025.
What: long-term infrastructure outage like in the movie Leave the World Behind, lasting more than a week or two. No cell phones, gasoline, water, food, flights, etc.
Where: continental US, Canada, possibly Alaska, possibly Western Europe
What To Do
With minimal effort, you can improve your situation a LOT with the following:
Act early. If cell phones go down, get home right away. Don’t assume service will return quickly.
A pre-agreed-upon plan of where to go and how to get there without cell phones.
Water supply and a plan to filter and sanitize water.
Anything non-perishable you already normally eat that lasts a year or so without going bad. Be sure to have an extra full pantry. (nothing happens, no problem you have some extra)
The following measures can be maintained for a month without disrupting normal life if nothing happens.
Know where all family members are at all times.
Have an agreed-upon meet-up location (usually home, nothing special, just be specific).
If communication goes down (cell phones and internet), proceed immediately home (or to meet-up location). Don’t wait very long for communications to return to operational like we would normally do.
“Trigger” Events
Under normal circumstances, if any of these events were to happen, we would assume an isolated incident and wait for it to pass, possibly watch on TV or follow the news somehow. This December I would expect something longer-term and take action to get home:
If communications go down.
If there is any major physical attack (act of war) anywhere in the US or Europe from one of the major world powers like Russia or China or from an unknown origin but big enough that a major power is suspected.
Cyber attack causing anything physical to happen like a plane crash or boat crash, especially multiple of them.
Common sense, anything obviously bad enough to threaten infrastructure.
Water
Fill up bath tub with water and any other large containers available.
Rule of thumb water quantity requirement is ~1 gallon per person per day, which is quite a lot of water and does not include bathing.
In general, filters are good for large contaminants while disinfectant is good for small contaminants. Both filtration and sanitation are necessary for safe water.
The Sawyer filter was recommended to me and notice it can filter up to 100,000 gallons of water. Don’t let it freeze. If you don’t have a dedicated filter, a paper towel is better than nothing.
Disinfect water with Clorox bleach using 8 drops of unscented bleach per gallon of water. Notice this is a very low ratio of bleach to water, less than 1 part bleach per 5,000 parts water. So, a gallon of bleach can disinfect over 5,000 gallons of water. Glass droppers are useful for measuring disinfectant.
Remember if you have well water, you typically need electricity for the pump to work, so use the pump while you can to get usable water up.
Remember water is heavy, so you are unlikely be able to carry enough water to survive on for very long. Water is not portable long-term. You need to have a source.
If you boil water, rolling boil for 1 minute is sufficient.
Food
If preparing for December, you don’t need to buy expensive food that lasts decades. You can really just have an unusually full pantry of non-perishable food that you can eat whether something happens or not. The following can last a year or two and you can eat it normally if nothing happens.
Bags of dry rice.
Olive oil lasts a year or two and contains a lot of calories.
Beans.
Radios
Radios are useful only if somebody else is communicating on the other end, so best to get common radios that are cheap enough to have 2 of.
Without a ham radio rig, you won’t be able to transmit more than a mile or so. However, would be nice to have receivers to hear transmissions. Receiving requires a lot less battery than transmitting.
This is the most common type of CB radio. I selected the option with an antenna and 15-foot cable because your transmission range is largely dependent on antenna size and height. You don’t have to set up the antenna ahead of time. If something happens there will be plenty of time for antenna set-up.
If the power is out, car batteries will probably still work for a while, at least to power a CB radio or charge USB-charged radios. Would be nice to have one or two USB car chargers available to be able to charge without having the car turned on wasting electricity or gas. If your car doesn’t have accessory mode, you can connect the positive terminal to the point and negative terminal to the side of the cigarette lighter connector to charge directly from the car battery.
Plan to attempt communication at the most recognizable natural events: sunrise and sunset.

Candles

Suggested Movie
Watch the movie “Leave the World Behind” and pay attention to what it would really be like to be in that situation. Remember we don’t see beyond the point where water and food run out. Notice especially the inability to coordinate plans and navigate without cell phones. Being separated or lost could be a big problem especially if you happen to be in an unfamiliar place. The movie was produced by Barack Obama, with his input as a former president. It has potential as both predictive programming and an idea of modern psychological warfare.
Summary
Just in writing this I feel a better about my family’s preparedness. I hope it helps – but mostly I hope it is not needed.
Note: “power” includes money, influence, control, women, humanity, resources, everything people need and want.
We perceive that several / many factions compete for power, we see the competition before us, and a story unfolds that eventually becomes known as “history”. In fact, the power brokers compete for the story itself before anything happens. The story we are told need be true just barely enough for the masses to accept it and act on it. Power is actually contained in the story itself (not in fighting directly with brute force to make the story real, reality is barely relevant). “History is written by the victors” unfolds constantly, not just after wars are won and lost. Power brokers compete not directly for power, but for a version of the story / history in which they have the most power. If you fight a war, you risk losing all. If you compete over what story will be told, you guarantee your position among the power brokers regardless of the outcome of any war or competition.
This accounts for the massive inconsistencies in the story we are told.
This is consistent with the CONCEPT of freemasonry, which I think is relevant as an IDEA if no longer as an organization.
The dumber humanity is, the greater the inconsistencies in the story can be. The dumber humanity, the more flexibility you have in writing the story. This accounts for governments apparently wanting people to be dumb.
As humanity becomes more unified and as it becomes more difficult to convince humans to fight other humans, the power brokers introduce things like microbes and aliens to be our enemies.
As humanity becomes more unified / “one-world-government-like” it looks more and more like a single unified faction telling the story, so when a conspiracy is theorized, it is automatically assumed to be suggesting a single cabal controlling it all even if it’s actually still a competition behind the scenes.
A football game in 4K looks like two teams competing. A football game viewed from outside the stadium (which is where we stand) looks like some people making a bunch of money selling tickets, which is indeed what we perceive. Neither side really loses, that is agreed on ahead of time. They (“they”) aren’t stupid.

Money Drives Media
I think one of the biggest misconceptions we have is that media makes money by advertising, especially that successful media makes significant money by accurately or even sensationally reporting politics or resonating with people. We imagine that if some media makes enough money, it will be successful and drive money and power. I understand that it can. I understand the concept. However, I think the reality is that political commentary of all kinds is almost always bought as an investment to drive what is popular, to control what people think. Media is purchased as an investment in the creation of politics, an investment in influence on the story that shapes and constructs the collective human consciousness.
Power money drives media and the media narrative. The media never drives enough money to influence real power.
Advertising revenue can be assume to be zero for the purposes of knowing which media is relevant. Ratings are only relevant to know which media is worth investing in for influence and power by those who are big enough to profit from the broad narrative driven by media.
Media is always telling you what to think. Media is never really reporting what you have decided to think.
Force: Most of mankind believes we have been to the Moon, and laughs at people who don’t believe it.
I believed the moon landings were real and I dismissed theories to the contrary for one simple reason: the Apollo missions required the efforts of hundreds of thousands of people and that many people cannot keep a secret. There can’t be a lie that big – I thought.
Hundreds, Not Hundreds of Thousands
The theory was presented to me that the astronauts went to low Earth orbit, and unbeknownst to even ground control (the famous “Houston”), they faked everything beyond low Earth orbit. They faked radio calls, flight data, and some images and videos that had been pre-recorded from the California desert (probably recorded in the summer of 1968). Since ground control couldn’t tell the difference between a real flight and even a training simulation, it may not have been easy but it is doable. Launching and faking the radio calls and imagery reduces the number of people involved in the secret from hundreds of thousands down maybe a hundred or so – much more manageable.
Lie or Die
A hundred still seems like a lot of people to keep a secret until you consider that the ring-leaders, whoever they were, killed people to do it. You don’t have to kill everyone who might speak up. Once you kill a few people who are willing to speak up, the remaining people willingly fall in line and keep the secret, knowing what happened to their friends.
The phrase, “for two people to keep a secret, one of them has to be dead,” should be, “For two or more people to keep a secret, you must kill one of them who speaks.”
Timeline
What follows is a timeline of key events along with videos. Throughout the summary, I make two simple statements to categorize the evidence:
“To believe the moon landings were real, you accept …”
“To believe the moon landings were faked, you accept …”
Both versions of the story are incredible, whether we went to the Moon or we faked it. When I see the evidence laid out, I come to the conclusion that the moon landings are not just an incredible feat, they are truly not credible. They did not happen. Mankind has not yet landed on the Moon – or even left low Earth orbit for that matter.
22 January 1967: Gruff Gus
According to Gus Grissom’s widow, when he was home for the last time before the fire that killed him, Gus picked a large lemon from a tree in their yard and intended to hang it on the rocket to call the rocket a lemon. Grissom was quoted as saying we were at least a decade from going to the Moon, not 2 years as was advertised. His criticism had earned him the nickname “Gruff Gus”.
27 January 1967: Apollo 1 Training Fire
Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee, the Apollo 1 crew, died in a fire.
(missing video is the audio of Apollo 1 dying in the training capsule fire, it’s awful, can probably still be found somehwere)
https://youtu.be/U3PV0noQ7Mk?si=DKucduUT532oxMEz
The Apollo 1 crew are the only astronauts to die in the whole program. To believe the moon landings were real, you accept the official story that the only deaths in the entire Apollo program happen to have included the most notable critic exactly when his death would have been necessary to transition from a real moon landing effort to faking it – and more importantly put other critics on serious notice to stay quiet.
I believe people would have to have died for either story to be true – real moon landings or fake. I believe the Apollo program could have crash-landed humans on the Moon if that had been an acceptable outcome. However, the the only astronauts to die coincidentally died just when it was required to keep fake moon landings quiet.
21 April 1967: Thomas Baron Report
Thomas Ronald Baron wrote a 275-page report on NASA safety protocol violations, which he gave to Rep. Olin E. Teague’s investigation at Cape Kennedy in Florida, on 21 April 1967.
27 April 1967: Thomas Baron Death
Thomas Ronald Baron died along with his family when their car was struck by a train.
To believe the moon landings were real, you accept that Thomas Baron and his family’s deaths were also coincidental, just 3 months after the Apollo 1 crew’s deaths and 6 days after he released his critical report.
The Apollo Program: 9 IsolatedClaims
There are only 6 total claims of landing humans on the Moon. Furthermore, there are only 9 total claims of humans even leaving low Earth orbit, all the Apollo program. Nobody else even claims to have sent humans beyond low Earth orbit before or since the Apollo program, not Russia, no other NASA program, not China, nobody else in all of mankind. Here is a list of all 9 claims of humans leaving low-Earth orbit:

Apollo 8 claims to have orbited the Moon 24-25 December 1968 with Frank Borman, James Lovell, and William Anders
Apollo 10 “dress rehearsal” claims to have flown within 15.6km of the moon’s surface on 22 May 1969 with Thomas P. Stafford, John W. Young, Eugene A. Cernan.
Apollo 13 claims to have been a failed moon landing attempt but also claims to have sling-shotted around the Moon in order to return to Earth with James A. Lovell, John L. Swigert, and Fred W. Haise
To believe we went to the Moon, you accept the official story that from December 1968 to December 1972, a 4-year period, the Apollo program sent humans beyond low Earth orbit 9 times, and the feat has not been accomplished at all before or since, despite the obvious leaps in technology during the following 53 years and counting.
August 1969: Apollo 11 Press Conference
To believe we went to the Moon, you accept the astronauts’ behavior at this press conference at face value. If the Apollo 1 crew was murdered and these guys went along with the mission because they knew they were next to die if they resigned, then this was a type of hostage situation – which is exactly what it looks like. Why does it look like a hostage situation? There are even teleprompters. Why are there teleprompters on the desk? Supposedly we’re looking at the 2 human beings who had ever been to the Moon (plus Michael Collins) and they all have to read from a teleprompter?
YouTube commenters bring up some poignant questions: were they raped by aliens on the Moon? Did the Moon land on them? This video would not have survived social media in 2025. There would have to have been some explanation and human behavior is timeless, so really, why do they act like that?
11 December 1972 Lunar Module Lift-Off Footage
To believe the moon landings were real, you don’t laugh at this footage of the Apollo 17 “final take-off” from the Moon:
Lunar module flying on Earth:
To believe we landed on the Moon, you accept that that aircraft went “6 for 6” landing on the Moon and taking off again. The Moon has one-sixth Earth’s gravity and no atmosphere, but still. Do it again.
Take another look at that aircraft flying and compare it to what a rocket looks like that can lift off and enter into Earth orbit. Again, 1/6 gravity of the Earth and no atmosphere, but that thing had to land on an unprepared, unknown surface ready to lift off again, escape gravity, and enter into orbit. I understand it supposedly docked with the lunar orbiter where Michael Collins was waiting – but does that make it easier or harder?
No Unfakeable Footage
To believe we went to the Moon, you accept that although none of the imagery brought back can be definitively proven fake, all of the imagery could have been faked, taken in the California desert and altered. While the imagery is impressive if fake, NONE of it is definitively unfakeable.
No Earth Footage from the Moon Surface
To believe we went to the Moon, you accept that the astronauts never panned the TV camera up to see the Earth from the surface of the Moon, despite the following reasons to have taken some video of Earth from the Moon:
They spent a total of 75+ hours on the Moon (combined among all 6 missions).
Neil Armstrong stated that the view of the Earth from the Moon was a source of comfort to him while on the Moon.
The Earth was visible in the lunar sky from their landing sites literally the entire time for all 6 missions, which is an astronomical fact. The Earth does not move in the lunar sky because the Moon is tidal locked to the Earth. Also, the Earth would have been separated from the sun by roughly 90° the entire time. This is also an astronomical fact because they landed near first quarter moon phase every time. The Earth would have appeared as a “half-Earth” because of the position of the sun.
The first famous photograph shown to the public from near the Moon was “earthrise,” supposedly taken from orbit, but they never in 75 hours panned the TV camera up to show the Earth in video.
They never showed the stars or the Earth from the surface of the Moon, especially in a video. The stars may not have shown up, okay, but Earth certainly would have. Showing the Earth from the Moon in a video would have been easy and interesting … but impossible from the California desert with 1960s technology. Why was that footage not taken? Were they too busy playing golf and driving their dune buggy on the Moon to just once point the camera at Earth that was right there in the sky the whole time?
The Van Allen Radiation Belts
To believe the moon landings were real, you have to accept that the 9 Apollo missions got to the other side of the Van Allen radiation belts – somehow – without really mentioning them and when astronauts were questioned about the radiation, they hardly remember dealing with it. Contrast that with plenty of footage of NASA itself and scientists talking about how intense and dangerous the radiation is.
2014 NASA Engineer Kelly Smith on the Van Allen Radiation
22 January 1973
Lyndon B Johnson died the day before the war in Vietnam ended and Nixon mentioned him in his speech. LBJ knew about the moon landings and profited from the Vietnam War as well. We’re not talking about nice people here.
20 July 1994: Neil Armstrong Speech at the White House for NASA’s 25th Anniversary
“Today we have with us a group of students, among America’s best. To you we say: we have only completed a beginning. We leave you much that is undone. There are great ideas undiscovered, breakthroughs available to those who can remove one of truth’s protective layers. There are places to go beyond belief.“
-Neil Armstrong, 20 July 1994
To accept the moon landings were real, you have to explain why Neil Armstrong said exactly what someone would say if he had been forced to fake the moon landing against his will and had the opportunity to speak to students 25 years later.
Read what he said. That is not a cryptic statement buried in a long speech among many speeches. The guy most famous for having walked on the Moon became a recluse from media attention for the rest of his life, but in one of the few speeches he gave, that’s what he said. Neil Armstrong was an unwilling participant and he told us what happened the best he could.
A Word on Bart Sibrel
If you believe the moon landings were faked, be warned: you’ll be grouped with Bart Sibrel, the loudest denier of the moon landings. While I happen to believe Sibrel’s theory and I think he does a pretty good job of organizing the evidence, he is unnecessary to come to the conclusion that the Apollo program faked the Moon landings. Also, Bart Sibrel is obnoxious to the astronauts, who were mostly unwilling participants it seems, especially Neil Armstrong. Lastly, Bart Sibrel believes in multi-dimensional aliens that interbreed with humans. So, quote verifiable facts, not Bart Sibrel.
18 July 1969, Apollo 11 Faking Being Halfway to the Moon
Look at this video. Why does Bart Sibrel have this video? He says NASA gave it to him by mistake when he requested footage for a documentary, which sounds fishy but plausible. He has it somehow and it has The video was not seen by the public until the 1990s when Bart Sibrel got it. Unless somebody can tell me how Bart Sibrel doctored this video or modified the date or changed the audio or whatever, it shows Apollo 11 near the Earth faking that the Earth is far away when they are supposed to be halfway to the moon. I understand videos can be faked, but it has Michael Collins’ face in it.
To believe the moon landings were real, you have to explain either how Bart Sibrel has this video, or how the video is something other than what it appears to be, which is Apollo 11 faking being halfway to the moon on 18 July 1969. You have to explain this or they didn’t go. Is the date stamp wrong? Does the audio not actually line up with what’s happening in the video? Is the person seen in the video not actually Michael Collins? Did Bart Sibrel fake the video somehow? Why does an individual with little budget have a video showing Apollo 11 in low-Earth orbit on 18 July 1969, clearly saying things contrary to what was being shown to Houston about where they were?
In Bart Sibrel’s Astronauts Gone Wild, he presents the 18 July 1969 video to Buzz Aldrin and Buzz Aldrin has no explanation. At one point in the confrontation Buzz Aldrin even suggests that Bart Sibrel manufactured the video. Bart Sibrel may be an ass hole in the way he goes about doing what he does, but the astronauts don’t act right either. Bart Sibrel is really putting his life on the line saying what he’s saying. I think the astronauts are the wrong people to confront since I believe they were unwilling participants, but their behavior is consistent with fake moon landings.
Laser Reflecting from the Moon
Supposedly the astronauts put laser reflectors on the Moon facing Earth and lasers can be bounced off of the mirrors back to Earth. To believe the landings were faked, you have to accept that there are in fact no man-made reflectors on the Moon, so the lasers are reflecting off of the surface of the Moon back to Earth. So, you have to accept that the surface of the whole Moon reflects more than Neil Armstrong’s pocket make-up mirror.
Motive? The Usual
The United States spent approximately $25.8 billion on Project Apollo between 1960 and 1973, which is equivalent to about $257 billion when adjusted for inflation to 2020 dollars.
Why do people even ask what the motive was? Money.
Russia and China Know We Faked It
If we faked the moon landings, the Soviet Union may have known at the time and both Russia and China certainly know by now. Why haven’t they said anything? To believe the moon landings were faked, you have to explain why Russia and China don’t say anything. One claim is they are blackmailing us to not say anything. Since we collaborate with Russia in space, I tend to think they are happy to work with us on space travel rather than expose us. I don’t totally understand why they don’t say something, but I am sure they know.
Nah, why am I questioning this? They knew. The Soviets knew. Anybody with a space program knew what they saw was not real. The public has nothing to compare it to, no context. The Soviet Union knew in 1969 that the Moon landing was fake. We collaborate with Russia in space, everybody knows that. The only news here is that we were already collaborating with them during Apollo so the Soviets collaborated with us faking the Moon landings. They were happy in second-place with whatever cut they got of the Apollo program to stay quiet.
My Conclusion
I started looking into the moon landings on 21 April 2025 when I realized they could have been faked. Since I started looking into it, I have seen zero compelling evidence that we actually went to the Moon and a lot of compelling evidence it was faked. Am I cherry-picking evidence? Or do people imagine that evidence is compelling that isn’t?
This really shakes my perception of reality, which is why I titled the post “Fact vs Force”. I am sure we did not go to the Moon. For such an extraordinary, incredible claim the lack of evidence is absurd. Especially now with 50+ years of hindsight, the continued fervor with which people defend the validity of this fabrication leads me to realize that when force is applied, force can override fact for a very long time…
However,
facts are stubborn things, and to those who continue to believe in this historically anomalous feat I say, “Cool. Do it again.”
If we do actually go to the Moon, we’re going to:
ferry fuel for the departure from the moon’s gravity
shield against Van Allen radiation
land somewhere where we don’t have to deal with a scorching 350-hour-long day
get some video footage of Earth from the surface of the Moon, which Apollo was apparently too busy playing golf to get done.
The Moon landings were fakeable when the public had nothing real to compare them to. When we do go to the Moon, the contrast with the fakes is going to be hilarious.
Average salinity: 0.035 Kg salt per Kg water, so 3.5% by mass.
The oceans are 272x the mass of the atmosphere.
Specific Heat
Specific heat of “air” at 250K is 1005 J/KgK
Specific heat of ocean water is ~4000 J/KgK
Total Heat Capacity
Total heat capacity of the atmosphere: 5.2×1021 J/K
Total heat capacity of the oceans: 5.6×1024 J/K
The heat capacity of the oceans is ~1,077x the heat capacity of the atmosphere.
I think it’s interesting that the ocean is only 272x the mass of the atmosphere. That is knowable intuitively if you know the approximate pressure deep-sea subs deal with or know that 10m of water is equal to about 1 atmosphere of presure.
Another interesting scale to put in perspective is that the hydrosphere is about 0.023% of Earth’s total mass. So the Earth mass is about the mass of 4,300 oceans.
Citizens in Delaware Ohio and Columbus Ohio are encouraged to snitch on each other, even anonymously, for not covering their face or for large gatherings. Fact.
This year, being polite requires being a bit forceful. As I have said from the beginning along with most people I know, there is a no-mask zone around me. Under no circumstances, directly or indirectly, will I be the reason you are required to cover your face. Breathe free, friends.
That said, there are many people who support wearing masks. We have to have a way of dealing with it consistently. My responses all year to even an allusion to mask support have been harsh. I have even been harsh if I perceive a failure to actively resist. After having had time to cool off, my only regret is the herd mentality stampeding to “safety” behind face underwear.
Being a divisive subject, I have decided the best course of action is active listening. Therefore I will directly quote the mask support I have heard and repeat it as best I understand it.
Active Listening 1
Mask supporter: “Masks are polite.”
What I hear: “Cover your face – and I do not consider it impolite to tell someone to cover their face.”
Very well. You will be safe. Do not come within two meters of me.
Active Listening 2
Mask supporter after I suggested that businesses post whether they require masks or not: “Of course businesses can post a requirement for shirt and shoes, ‘no shirt no shoes no service,’ but masks?!? … Obviously the government has to step in and mandate that everybody wear masks in public.”
What I hear: “My fear and belief in masks supersede a business owner’s right to operate with open faces. Cover your face.”
I hear you loud and clear – so now don’t come within two meters of me.
Active Listening 3
Mask supporter during a discussion about the various prevention measures: “Come on man. Masks aren’t political. It’s science. Of course governments have to require masks.”
What I hear: “No discussion. We have all agreed that all security trumps all individual rights. Cover your face.”
Loud and clear. Keep your distance from me.
Active Listening 4
Mask supporter admitting that outdoor masking is probably a waste: “OK yeah, they probably don’t do anything outside, but we need to show we’re all together in this.”
What I hear … ? “Join my cult. We cover our faces everywhere. Cover your face if you are near me. My government will require it.”
I’m a bit confused to be honest, but you said it. Keep your distance.
Active Listening 5
Mask supporter relating mask wearing to health codes in restaurants: “So you believe people should ignore the mask mandate, which is a health code, and not wear masks? Isn’t that a slippery slope of people not following health codes?”
What I hear: “I think I’m clever. Cover your face. My government will require it.”
You are a real threat because people really will buy that line if the TV says it.
Active Listening 6
Mask supporter: “Science says cover your face.”
What I hear: “The TV says cover your face, so I do.”
Take your “science,” your science, your TV, and your mask, and shove them all up your ass … and keep your distance from me.
Mask Etiquette
Having considered, the following categories apply for me:
People who actively respect a human being’s right to show their face while interacting, including whatever “risk” is involved: I appreciate your friendship more than ever.
People wearing masks. Depends who, where, and why.
People who fail to actively resist masking: I strive to be stronger. Writing about it is a form of resistance, hope this helps.
Any indirect support for any mask mandate: you are a mild threat. I am actively planning to avoid falling victim to any government you vote for.
Direct support, any enthusiasm for masking, or any in-person social pressure to wear a mask, even out of a perceived sense of duty: I will do my best to maintain two meters from you for the rest of my life.
I tried to follow Trump’s first 100 days. I made an effort but alas I let it slide. Now when I read again what he actually said, I am reminded of how much the media distorts what he actually wrote.
My Post on Trump’s First 100 Days
I notice at the end of my post I said the same things four years ago that I’m saying now: turn off the TV and be local. Four years later I believe I can truly say I know a few people who have completely eliminated TV from their lives. That’s some success.
(Build Back Better? Tripling down on the slogans with not-so-hidden negative implication I guess: MAGA, BLM, … now BBB)
To Biden’s pledges. I guess two things stand out.
First, masking. I will continue to use masking as an indicator of mental illness and an indicator of people and places to avoid. Biden has declared himself the leader of the mentally ill.
Second, what little I saw from the media about Biden’s first 100 days looked like open provocation. I have to admit, this contrasts with what Biden has actually written, less dramatic, so once again the media is distorting and provoking.
Media quoting Biden: “I’m coming for you! Retaliation!”
Biden himself: “Washington DC plans to return to the usual half-truth thievery at the pace Americans are used to (plus masking attempt round two since a surprising majority of Americans seem to not value showing their faces).”

Marco Rubio nails it in 56 seconds, starting at 0:43 in the video:
Defund DC. Repeal the 16th Amendment to the Constitution.
30 April 2021
I’ll give myself a little more realistic task this time around since I failed to follow the details on Trump. It will be interesting to see how long Biden lasts.
Will Biden still be president on 30 April 2021? (100 days)
