Caught in the Middle


What I will say after having stepped back last weekend is how much improved my general outlook was having gotten away from the Globe and this blog. I am quickly coming to the point where I am reevaluating the usefulness of what I do. Continuing to transmit the contagion that is the AmeriKan pre$$ runs counter to all decency and is a draining process. Maybe it is time to evolve past the Bo$ton Globe and its $hit-$pew since they will apparently never change and are only getting worse.

You can't say I didn't give them enough chances and the old college try:

"Mass. middle schools will be required to reopen full time on April 28, state school officials announce" by Felicia Gans and Nick Stoico Globe Staff and Globe Correspondent, March 9, 2021

In another sign of a return to normalcy in Massachusetts public schools, thousands of middle school students will be back in class for full-time learning at the end of next month, the state’s top education official announced Tuesday.

It's ANYTHING BUT NORMAL to what the kids will be returning.

Education Commissioner Jeffrey Riley’s decision to return students in grades 6 to 8 on April 28 comes just days after the state Board of Education empowered him to determine when remote or hybrid-learning will no longer count toward student learning hours in public school districts.

Elementary school students are due to return to school on April 5. A date for high schools to offer in-person learning will be determined soon, the state said Tuesday.

“Now is the time to begin moving children back to school more robustly,” Riley told the state Board of Education last week, prior to the vote to give him the authority to force schools to reopen.

Yeah, what changed in the last, oh, two months, huh?

As part of the announcement, the state said returning students must wear masks in schools, including those in the youngest grades.

Oh, so the "return to normalcy" is actually a literally torturous harm to health.

Time to HOME SCHOOL if you can, or choose private -- for the sake of your children!

Whatever you do, keep them out of state hands.

Riley’s directive on middle schools drew sharp criticism from the state’s two largest teachers unions, who reiterated their call for teachers to receive the COVID-19 vaccine before returning to school.

Merrie Najimy, president of the Massachusetts Teachers Association, said the state’s directive “represents an arrogant one-size-fits-all view that state education leaders know better than parents or school committees what’s best for their school districts.”

Beth Kontos, president of the American Federation of Teachers Massachusetts, shared those concerns.

The teachers have thrown in with this fraud for power, and will thus get no sympathy from me, sorry.

The state guidelines announced Tuesday come with additional changes. Notably, all students must wear masks in class, unless they have a medical exemption. Previously, masks were encouraged, but not required, for students in grade 1 and below.

All families will continue to have the option to keep their children in a remote learning model through the end of the school year, according to the guidance published by the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. Students who need to isolate or quarantine after being diagnosed with COVID-19, or coming into contact with someone who has, will also be allowed to learn remotely.....

Even though remote is damaging the kids beyond belief while not learning them anything.


So what will you do, parents, when your child doesn't come home because he/she was exposed to someone with the mythical COVID and needs to be quarantined?

Sure looks like a kidnapping operation under state auspices to me.

Of course, the Globe is on a mission to vaccinate even the sparsest of areas because it is essential:

"Essential workers worry they are being left behind as other groups are prioritized for vaccines" by Deanna Pan Globe Staff, March 9, 2021

NEW BEDFORD — A year ago, they were hailed as heroes, risking their lives for little pay in supermarkets, warehouses, and food-processing plants so Americans could stay well-fed and fully stocked during the deadliest pandemic in a century, but now many essential workers, despite bearing an outsize burden of coronavirus infections, worry they have been forgotten in the rush to vaccinate an eager populace against COVID-19, as the state and federal government continually reprioritize who should have access to the coveted doses.

“We’re really feeling like we’re being left out,” said Adrian Ventura, executive director of Centro Comunitario de Trabajadores, a nonprofit that advocates on behalf of immigrant workers.

You should consider yourselves lucky, and each and every human being is essential. 

The designation comes from the genocidal eugenicists and elites who have foisted this fake crisis upon us all and who are busily destroying life on this planet with their toxic tubes of poison -- with a criminal pre$$ mouthpiece collaborating and abetting the planned mass-murdering cull.

A former fish house worker, Ventura has built a reputation in this coastal fishing city as a problem-solver among the immigrant workforce and a “piedra en el zapato,” or a stone in the shoe, to the seafood-processing plants that employ them. Lately, he has turned his attention to the local health department with one urgent question: When will our workers be vaccinated against COVID-19?

“People are very worried,” he added, speaking to the Globe through a Spanish interpreter. His organization alone has recorded coronavirus infections in more than 280 local families and at least nine deaths in connection with the local fishing industry.....

Every article carries with it several agenda-pushing angles and I'm sick of it the stink of rotted fish, sorry.


I hope they are getting the right information; otherwise, they will have to sue over the brunch.

I would toast them, but....


That is after spending tens of thousands of dollars to retrofit the places, and the why is clear: the constant hoops are meant to put you out of business because the last thing a totalitarian tyranny wants is people in bars getting ideas and becoming unruly. 

Think Molly Maguires, folks.


I'm sorry, folks. I read that fawning eulogy and paen with all its buried $upremacy, and it was sickening.

{@@##$$%%^^&&}


It's a cough from the New York Times, and the alleged opal is to expand screening to find it early enough to cure it in more people at high risk because of smoking when it is the deadly masks we are forced to wear causing the problem (just like in 1918 when they caused an outbreak of bacterial pneumonia and the experimental vaccines soon followed then. History repeats, meaning great cull is coming on its heels).

"Pentagon set to OK extending Guard deployment at Capitol" by Lolita C. Baldor The Associated Press, March 9, 2021

WASHINGTON — The Pentagon is set to approve an extension of the National Guard deployment at the US Capitol for about two more months as possible threats of violence remain, defense officials said Tuesday.

Officials said final details were being worked out, but Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is expected to give final approval to have Guard troops continue to provide security in Washington at the request of the Capitol Police. Officials have been scrambling in recent days to determine if and how to fill the request for more than 2,000 Guard members, as the original March 12 deadline for them to leave Washington looms.

The decision underscores concerns about security at the Capitol, two months after rioters breached the building. Law enforcement has remained in a heightened security posture in response to intelligence suggesting possible threats to the Capitol by militia groups.

Like COVID, they are keep this stone rolling forever as well, like any junta would do as they hunt down dissidents.

The request to extend the deployment met resistance last week, as some governors expressed reluctance or flatly refused to commit their troops to more time in the city. There now appear to be enough states willing to provide Guard troops for the mission, said the defense officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations.

Chief Pentagon spokesman John Kirby would not confirm the impending approval, but said Austin is expected to make a decision “very, very soon.” Asked about the security threat, Kirby said any decision would be based on local law enforcement concerns along with the needs of the Capitol Police.....


So how do you think Trump will get through all that?

That comes as talks in Doha between the Afghan government and the Taliban have stalled (what a shock), and as the US mulls an exit after presenting the warring sides with draft peace agreement and restarting the drone assassination program.

That was part of the Globe's unnoteworthy political notebook.


There is no way he can get a fair trial in the politically-correct echo chambers that pass as courtrooms these days, and I'm sure the Globe will give you a front row seat each and every day.


Well, that solves that crisis!

{@@##$$%%^^&&}


I will break mine by noting the inordinate amount of attention my pre$$ gave it:

"If you have watched TV or read a newspaper in the last 24 hours, you would be under the distinct impression that the most important story, actually the only story, in the world right now is Oprah Winfrey’s interview with Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle. CBS spent weeks hyping the show, and, along with just about every other media outlet in the world, will spend weeks more hyping its alleged bombshell revelations. One of those bombshells, apparently, is that some members of the British royal family are racist. So, the family representing an institution and empire that for centuries oversaw and gained untold riches from the colonization and exploitation of millions of indigenous people contains some members who are racist? Shocking. In this day and age, it is utterly preposterous to pay so much attention to something as patently ridiculous as a royal family....."

Fortunately, my only exposure is to the Globe for I no longer watch cable or network news, ever (save for Tucker on occasion).

I was first told the explosive Harry and Meghan interview reverberated across globe (I had no idea they were even giving one, and couldn't care less). It was a “tell-all” interview with Oprah Winfrey (maybe you take a second look at the photo) at a tough time for them as they stood up to palace power and white privilege and revealed the bigotry and rot of a dated institution (just like the legacy $upremaci$t pre$$) that is as much a fairy tale as a business.

They then had the temerity to complain about an invasion of privacy (so that is what a skank looks like), and I will finish by saying she can't hold a candle to Diana, who was also never allowed to fit in.

Also in the "my-$hit-don't-$tink" department:

"U.S. special envoy for climate John Kerry traveled to Brussels on Tuesday to relaunch trans-Atlantic cooperation with European officials in the wake of President Joe Biden’s decision to rejoin the global effort to curb climate change. Kerry was welcomed by the EU Commission vice-president in charge of climate action, Frans Timmermans, for discussions focusing on the next U.N. climate summit, taking place in Glasgow in November. “We face an extraordinary crisis, because the science is screaming at us, the evidence grows by the year,” said Kerry, a former U.S. Secretary of State. “Last year, again, hottest year in history. ... So this is a crisis, the climate crisis, but it’s also a moment of the greatest opportunity that we’ve had since perhaps the industrial revolution.” The EU wants to be a leader in the fight against global warming and has pledged to reach climate neutrality by mid-century as part of its European Green Deal action plan. The Biden administration has yet to announce a new national 2030 target for cutting U.S. fossil fuel emissions. “We have no better partners than our friends here in Europe and the EU, it is important for us to align ourselves now, which is what we will discuss today, because no one country can resolve this crisis,” Kerry said. “It will take every country.”

Yeah, never mind a real environmental problem because nothing can be done about it.

So what was the carbon footprint on that flight, you $tinking piece of hypocritical crap, and did you have your green badge (what, not yellow?) with you:

"China on Monday introduced a digital vaccine passport to track its citizens’ medical history as they begin to travel abroad. The health certificate, which runs on Tencent’s WeChat messaging app, will include a user’s Covid-19 test and vaccination history, and is intended to enable international travel, according to a report by the Chinese state-run news agency Xinhua. The service currently only works for Chinese citizens. Europe and the United States have discussed their own versions of such systems in preparation for a likely boom in travel as ever more people get vaccinated. During a Group of 20 meeting last year, President Xi Jinping of China suggested that countries standardize services to facilitate movement across borders. The Chinese pass offers an encrypted, scannable code that could allow other countries to process the data of travelers, according to the Xinhua report, but privacy concerns mean that Xi’s vision for a standardized system is unlikely to occur....."

It will soon be required to go anywhere or do anything, per Great Re$et plan:


They are playing Russian roulette with your life:

"The promoters of a Russian coronavirus vaccine known as Sputnik V demanded an apology on Tuesday from a European regulator who compared using it now to playing Russian roulette. The episode highlighted a deepening rift between Russia and the West over accusations of belittling each other’s vaccines....."

We have been told to take whichever one you can get over here.

The foul ball throws a wild pitch, wow!

Of course, pitching is both an art and a $cience:

"Economy will surge with US stimulus and vaccines, group says, warning some nations must do more; Young people must not be left behind, Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development says" by Liz Alderman New York Times, March 9, 2021

PARIS — The US economy will accelerate twice as fast as expected this year as the coming passage of President Biden’s $1.9 trillion stimulus plan, combined with a rapid vaccine rollout, ignites a powerful recovery from the pandemic and helps lift global growth, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development said Tuesday, but countries that are stumbling in the pace of their vaccination campaigns, especially in Europe, risk falling behind as a failure to beat back the spread of the virus delays a reopening of businesses and prevents people from returning to their normal lives.

So much for the revival!

In its interim outlook, the economic organization laid out an uncomfortable reality facing governments as vaccine campaigns around the world make uneven progress: Simply pumping money into an economy is not enough for a revival; countries will need to offer both economic stimulus and an effective vaccine rollout.

Sure looks like terrorist extortion and blackmail to me!

“Stimulus without vaccinations won’t be as effective because consumers won’t go out doing normal things,” Laurence Boone, the OECD’s chief economist, said in a news briefing. “It’s the combination of health and fiscal policy that matters.”

Consumers don't have the money anyway, a$$hole, despite the New York Times $pew.

The organization urged countries to go faster on vaccine campaigns to reopen their economies and said more vaccines needed to reach low-income countries — otherwise, parts of the developing world would remain under prolonged lockdowns or closed to travel, delaying a rebound.

They are holding your livelihood hostage to their evil designs.

In the United States, the steady supply and distribution of vaccines, together with a reopening of the economy and fiscal stimulus, are expected to “significantly boost the recovery as people are able to return to shop, dine, and travel,” Boone said.

More than 60 million people in the United States have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, and Biden’s rescue package, which the House is expected to give final approval to Wednesday, includes direct payments of up to $1,400 to hundreds of millions of Americans and the extension of a $300-per-week supplemental unemployment benefit until September.

Economists have generally expected that the sudden and deep pandemic-induced recession that swept around globe last year would be followed by an upswing in growth as businesses reopened and people returned to normal lives, but Tuesday’s report adds to a growing body of forecasts suggesting the United States, in particular, could experience a post-COVID boom.

China, which contained the virus outbreak more quickly than the United States and other countries, will continue to benefit with growth of 7.8 percent forecast for this year. The government has poured money into infrastructure projects and extended loans and tax relief to support business and avoid pandemic-related layoffs. India’s economy is expected to grow 12.6 percent after a 7.4 percent fall in 2020, the organization added. 

HMMMMM.

Still, the duration of a global recovery will depend on the race between vaccines and emerging variants of the virus, the organization added. If vaccination programs are not deployed fast enough to cut infection rates, or if new variants spread and require changes in vaccines, consumer spending and business confidence will be hit....

Shut it down again!


Should have read the fine print before you parked the car:

"Three years ago, Walmart offered hundreds of thousands of its US workers a new perk to keep them from quitting. Employees loved it. Rivals copied it. Now Walmart has reached a conclusion: It hasn’t quite worked as expected. The perk is an app that gave employees the ability to tap their wages before payday, along with a bevy of other tools that helped them save more and forecast their earnings. It was supposed to help employees feel less stressed while boosting retention, but it turns out employees who often choose to get paid sooner — without using some of the app’s other tools — turned over faster, a recent internal review found. That’s got the world’s largest retailer rethinking how it pitches the app....."
