#disaster

"Bicycle is the slow #death of the #planet."


A banker made the economists think this when [they] said:⁣

“A cyclist is a #disaster for the country’s #economy: [they don't] buy cars and doesn’t borrow #money to buy. [They] don't pay insurance policies. Don't buy fuel, don't pay to have the #car serviced, and no repairs needed. [They don't] use paid parking. Doesn't cause any major accidents. No need for multi-lane highways.⁣

[They are] not getting obese.⁣

Healthy people are not necessary or useful to the economy. They are not buying the #medicine. They don't go to hospitals or doctors.⁣
They add nothing to the #country's #GDP.⁣

"On the contrary, each new McDonald’s store creates at least 30 jobs—actually 10 cardiologists, 10 dentists, 10 dietitians and nutritionists—obviously as well as the #people who #work in the store itself."⁣

Choose wisely: a #bike or a #McDonald's? It's something to think about.⁣
~ Emeric Sillo⁣

PS: #walking is even worse. #Pedestrians don't even buy a #bicycle!

Britain’s Covert War in Yemen

#Britain ’s #Covert #War in #Yemen #UK #UN #politics

"The brutal war in Yemen, which has raged since 2015, is the world’s worst #humanitarian #disaster . A delicate truce since April has reduced some of the horror, but that deal seems to be breaking down.

It should be time to reflect about who, on all sides of the conflict, including in Britain, might be indicted for #war #crimes . Nearly 9,000 civilians have been killed in over 25,000 mainly #Saudi air strikes which have been facilitated by Britain’s Royal Air Force. Many more tens of thousands have been killed in the conflict.

The U.N. has repeatedly alleged the commission of war crimes but no Saudi, Briton or Yemeni has been held to account, nor is likely to be. Tragically, it is history repeating itself, and the price once again is being paid by ordinary Yemenis."

troubling times for us all

Here is a quick summary of some of the things they said:
They are afraid to come out publicly due to intimidation tactics such as loss of job and/or license to practice #medicine.
Unvaccinated healthcare workers are extremely upset with the medical community. They feel they have been treated unfairly.
It is the vaccinated workers who are getting sick with COVID, but it is the unvaccinated who are punished with constant testing, restrictions, and threats of losing their jobs.
The COVID shots are a #disaster. Even for the elderly which is supposed to be the most compelling use case, death rates in elderly homes went up by a factor of 5 after the shots rolled out. Each time the shots are given, the deaths spike. Nobody is talking publicly about this. It’s not allowed.
“I have a patient who owns an adult care home that gave vaccinations to their six adult clients. They all died within a week.”
Doctors are seeing rates of injury and death increase dramatically in all ages of people. The injuries are only happening to the vaccinated. There is no doubt that this is happening but many doctors have so much cognitive dissonance that they don’t see it.
One nurse with 23 years of experience says she’s never heard of anyone under 20 dying from cardiac issues until the vaccines rolled out. Now she knows of around 30 deaths.
“I have been a nurse for 36 years. I have NEVER witnessed people in their 20s and 30s having strokes, atrial fibrillation, or cardiomyopathies until the Covid vaccines. I work in cardiology. When I mention that someone should look at the vaccines as a possible reason, I am immediately silenced and told, “It is NOT from the vaccine.””
Doctors aren’t recording vaccination status in the medical records so that all the deaths are attributed to the unvaccinated.
Doctors are deliberately ignoring the possibility that the vaccines could be the cause of all the elevated events. The events are simply all unexplained.
Many doctors have either quit or will quit.
Some doctors and nurses at top institutions such as Mass General Hospital have falsified vaccine cards. They publicly toe the line and encourage their patients to take the shot knowing full well it is deadly. They value their job more than the lives of their patients. The important thing is they are risking 10 years in jail for doing this. These highly respected medical workers are telling the world that these COVID shots are so dangerous that they are willing to risk 10 years in prison to avoid taking the shot. That’s the message America needs to hear. And if Biden were an honest President, he would call for full amnesty and protection from retaliation for all these cases if people admitted publicly they did this. He’d be amazed at the number of responses he’d get. But he won’t do that because it would be too embarrassing for his administration.
Things don’t seem to be getting any better.
The medical examiners all over the world are not doing the proper tests during an autopsy to detect a vaccine-related death. Without doing the necessary tests, it is very hard to make an association. There isn’t a single “guidance” document from any medical authority anywhere in the world to do these tests on people who die within 3 months of their last COVID vaccination. This is why no associations are found: they aren’t looking and it is deliberate. The mainstream press doesn’t call them out on this either.
Doctors are being forced to take other vaccines so the hospital can meet their quota. This was admitted to them.
“I'm sorry I don't have more definite data. I am a dermatology physician assistant. In the past year, I have seen more new onset cancers (brain, kidney, ureter, leukemia) than I have in the past 12 years of seeing patients.”

A quotation by Diamond, Jared

A blueprint for disaster in any society is when the elite are capable of insulating themselves.

A journey around a city centre park.... a sundial where the observer becomes the gnomen.... seagulls... memorials to disasters and odd fellows... seagulls.... a toad with a head full of jewels... ghosts.... and does the old council offices really have explosives embedded in its supporting pillars ?

I am a big fan of #FDroid but the #error management is a #disaster.

source: https://f-droid.org

F-Droid is free #software and an alternative for the #Google Play Store on #Android on the #smartphone.

Most of the time, everything runs great, but sometimes apps cannot be installed or updated.

The error messages displayed are:
- internal error
- unknown error

So the user is left to find out the error by herself. Often the problem is the space on the device. From time to time, however, you are just guessing and have to wait until the next update. In my experience, this is always due to careless programming. Any error message, no matter how cryptic, is better than what is displayed.
