I chuckled a little then thought about it.... Running out of depression meds is going to be a level of disaster all unto itself.

You have to taper down off of a lot of those too.

One reason they closed all the loony bins was because of things like Lithium, Valproic acid, zoloft, Prozac, Xanax, and other heavy hitters.

No more psychological medicine = more trouble a lot of people aren't thinking about.

There is another aspect as well. Like the great depression, they are again outlawing homelessness and vagrancy. The infirm are the first to get outed when the money dries up.

Now it gets uglier as all debtor prison and jails were effectively outlawed. And the criminals have more rights than the victims, how will corrupt broken munincipalities afford housing for violators?

As far as the meds go, some of them will cause you severe distress or death if you go cold turkey. Other meds may cause some to wake up and realize the lies then go even nuttier. Others will waste away being unable to manage their issues. Even more will make others look sane when they act out.

But too many personality disorders and mental infirmities are just learned behaviors. Some are genetic but have a dietary/environmental trigger. There is a reason they say insanity runs in families.

But as drugs dry up so will therapists. So it gets really ugly as no one gets help. And I think this goes back to the death of civility and a movement more towards the removal of the sanctity of human life.

The mentally infirm not knowing or able to act properly will become as locusts. Things could get ugly.

WALL STREET WEEKLY PERFORMANCE:

*DOW: -2.9%, 8TH WEEKLY LOSS IN A ROW - LONGEST LOSING STREAK SINCE 1932

*S&P 500: -3%, 7TH WEEKLY LOSS IN A ROW - LONGEST LOSING STREAK SINCE 2001

*NASDAQ: -3.8%, 7TH WEEKLY LOSS IN A ROW - LONGEST LOSING STREAK SINCE 2001

A lot of this is the result of one the fed lying about the rate hikes. And two failed policy on the wet dream that is the great reset. Sure some of the multinational business leaders are in on it, but they do not realize they are accountable and replaceable as their representation and monies have to answer to investors.

Someone just tried to steal the catalytic convertor off the Winnebago up the street
BROAD DAY LIGHT!!!!

Gonna get REAL bad

A driver who does parts swaps from another store, had their delivery vehicle broken into over a weekend. (they busted out a back side window)

All they stole was airbuds and a pack of crackers.

I have to wonder when folks are going to put out honeypot items that will kill the thieves after a period of time. Or put out items that have a hidden tracker that will make recovery easy.

The danger as this stuff gets worse is the more aggresive folks will get more brazen on both sides.

Took a 2 hr. Road trip around my county. Few cars on the road.
businesses devoid of customers..
My take..
the calm before the storm..
and what a storm it will be.


NOTE: I live in the sticks so my survey is not scientific whatsoever.
NOTE2: On a more somber note lots of folks I know are dying...very distressing.
NOTE3:Folks are triggered easily
And exactly What the Hell, DO YOU mean by Note3????

It has become increasingly clear that lots of folks I run into are super sensitive about what is said during polite conversation. Certain words trigger them into a nervous defensive mode. I am not going to get more specific then that. By the way I am talking about the MEAT WORLD...not the cyber world...

I'm to the point where I just pretty much keep my mouth shut and keep prepping like there is no tomorrow as the window of opportunity is rapidly closing.

Adults by now either 'get it' or they don't. It is too late in the game to waste your breath trying to get someone else tuned up on the covid, the economy or the banking system and everything else coming apart at the seams, etc. When they panic [and they will] they will remember that you told them about it and might also assume that you have prepped and then they will want some or all that you have.

People in panic mode don't think clearly and panic is coming.

No kidding. And the triggering as you call it is what I refer to as cognitive dissonance, bigotry, or more aptly brain washing. For some reason the programming has a built in defense trigger literallly on trying to remove the programming.

Become the gray man. That is what I did many years ago when I moved across the country.

normalcy bias is a killer.

I believe the brainwashers are also brainwashed to a certain extent.

A normal thinking person would say that the ones wanting a societal collapse are suicidal.

Maybe. But if you live in a society so over-run with corruption that it would be impossible to remove, then the only other option would be to destroy that society to start over.


I like the way you euphemistically threw in that “if”.




Very diplomatic.
