[selfmaderibcageman]

been thinking quite a bit about the uh, "you get a death note, fix particulate emissions" thing recently. I've kind of settled on "Sunak and Scholz get either novichok'd or Po-210'd" since they're both cunts I don't like but also at least allegedly anti russia which makes the framing make a lot more sense. The problem with the US is I think things are so polarized there's not really any good candidates for people that are 1) sufficiently beloved by most 2) somewhat but not too important and 3) actually make sense to stage as "assassinated by russia". Unsure with the rules as to whether I can actually make them get assassinated or what though. Like can the death note summon an assassin? not really i think.

This Week in Prophecy: CBS & Red Heifers, Crocus Hall, Putin Re Elected, Sea Security Belt

Numbers 19:5-6 And the heifer shall be burned in his sight. Its skin, its flesh, and its blood, with its dung, shall be burned. And the priest shall take cedarwood and hyssop and scarlet yarn, and throw them into the fire burning the heifer. Since when does CBS care about the Bible, specifically Numbers 19 and what it has to say about a red heifer? All credit to CBS and Chris Livesay, they…

The more Ageist attacks that our Israeli-loyal MSM makes on Biden, the more pissed off I get.

" ABC News/Ipsos PollConducted by Ipsos using the probability-based KnowledgePanel®A survey of the American general population (ages 18+)Interview dates: February 9-10, 2024, Number of interviews, adults: 528"

Bottom line, it's pretty clear that Bibi Netanyahu and HIS backers are not pleased with having someone so Pro-American, in the White House. We were supposed to be toast, by now. It should not be up to Israel, whom we have as our representative.

Democrat Lies: Media Shrugs and Stays Silent After Perpetuating "Russia Disinformation" Hoax for Years.

..."In 2020, CBS News’ Lesley Stahl literally laughed mockingly at then-President Donald Trump when he raised the Hunter Biden laptop and what it revealed about the Bidens."... ..."former Chief of Staff at the CIA and Department of Defense Jeremy Bash, who told MSNBC that the laptop “looked like Russian intelligence” and “walked like Russian intelligence.” He dismissed the relevance of the laptop before the election by declaring that “this effort by Rudy Giuliani and the New York Post and Steve Bannon to cook up supposed dirt on Joe Biden looks like a classic, Russian playbook disinformation campaign.” Bash, like others behind the conspiracy theory, was later given an intelligence position by Biden."... ..."CNN’s Alex Marquardt told viewers, “We do know it is a very active Russian campaign.”...

..."the Washington Post has continued to suggest that this reporting was accurate. One of the leading purveyors of this false story was the Post’s Philip Bump, who slammed the New York Post for its now proven Hunter Biden laptop story."...

..."In 2021, when media organizations were finally admitting that the laptop was authentic, Bump was still declaring that it was a “conspiracy theory.” Despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary, Bump continued to suggest that “the laptop was seeded by Russian intelligence.”... ..."Former CIA Director John Brennan, one of the 50 who signed the letter, also claimed that the laptop bore “the hallmarks of Russian disinformation.”... ..."James Clapper, a former director of National Intelligence and CNN analyst, said the laptop was “classic, textbook Soviet, Russian tradecraft at work.”... ..."Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi, D-Ill., who told the media not to join Giuliani as a “vehicle for Russian disinformation.”... ..."Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., former chair of the House Intelligence Committee, insisted that the laptop was clearly “Kremlin propaganda.”... ..."This long-debunked claim was even recently repeated in Congress by Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y., who claimed that the laptop could not be authenticated even though it was just authenticated and introduced in a federal prosecution."...

Every single Democrat in this post lied to your face for years about a laptop that belongs to a child raping, crack addict. The only reason they did this is to help Biden and his family from facing the consequences of their actions. Democrats happily lied to the general public and perpetuated a "Russian Disinformation" hoax for years to save face for Biden, a dementia riddled old man and garbage father.

Remember what CBS’s former CEO, Les Moonves, said about giving Trump billions in free airtime?

It’s happening all over again.

CNN is enabling Trump today, and tomorrow they’ll pretend they were always fighting against him.

If selling out America to a rapist traitor who sold secrets to Russia makes them richer, CNN does not give a single fuck.

The media is complicit.

wow i did not expect an austria game in eu4 to actually go well for me, however, somehow i managed to unite the HRE into one country, conquered spain and thanks to that took over their colonial nations, portugal fell under a PU with me at some point, the spanish declared a succession war when that happened, it was an easy win though, just took time.

I started out the game basically by just speedrunning getting a bohemian and austrian PU, then went for poland, while also doing diplomatic fuckery to spread the habsburgs. This led to a Swedish, Saxonian, Portugese and British PU eventually, saxony and the brits were a claim on throne war. did some conquering in poland to finish the mission that gets you a restoration of union CB on poland, it wasn't that helpful unfortunately, russia also took a lot of their lands. then after taking i think it was venice and Milan, i got the restoration of union CB on naples and did that as well :3

so there i was with 7 personal unions at once + some subjects from the HRE, the religious league war was pretty fast, catholicism won, i revoked some free cities to enforce the religion, and i was left with a HRE free from heresy, this in addition to the historical center of Prague and austrian national ideas made getting imperial authority easy, and soon enough i disallowed internal wars, making centralization of the empire even easier, yippee ;3

once i revoked the privilegia i declared a couple wars, the vassal swarm was amazing, first i took some provinces from the ottomans to finish an austrian mission that wanted me to get some serbian provinces, then spain, thanks to the way they choose how to declare wars (iirc they don't consider subjects of an overlord when declaring war on a subject of of said overlord, which gave them the amazing idea to start a colonialism war against Holland, which was my vassal, this called the entire HRE and my PUs into the war) It was fucking horrible. fighting countries that have colonial subjects is SO fucking exhausting, I've had your entire mainland occupied for >15 years and we're still only at ~40% war score because their fucking colonial subjects are untouched. horrible.

Anyways, I now own all of the HRE, most of france, all of the nordic countries, the british isles, iberia, hungary, bohemia, poland, half of Lithuania, all of Italy, morocco, 90% of the americas, australia and half of south africa.

monthly balance is at 4.5k, my manpower pool was into 3 or 4 million, I don't remember exactly, army limit was at 3 million, and navy limit at around 3k iirc, as of rn i only have 1k ships, and around 2.5m bitches in the army, and i have 155 absolutism

Entertainment Weekly just named Documentary Now! as one of the 'The 25 best shows to watch on Netflix right now' (April 6, 2024) which lead me to this ranking on Consequence.net 'Every Episode of Documentary Now!, Ranked From Worst to Best' by Clint Worthington from November 9, 2022.

Alexander Skarsgård's 2 episodes 'Solider of Illusion' Parts I & II were ranked #5 by Clint:

It’s a Parody Of: Werner Herzog’s existential, surreal documentaries, most notably the Les Blank-directed Empire of Dreams, about the making of his historical epic Fitzcarraldo.  It would have been easy for Documentary Now! and writer John Mulaney to do a straightforward pastiche of Empire of Dreams, make Bill Hader do a hokey Werner Herzog impression, and call it a day. But what makes “Soldier of Illusion” so brilliant is the ways it dodges those expectations while building its own comic infrastructure one gut-busting brick at a time. Alexander Skarsgård’s Rainer Wolz isn’t quite doing a Herzog voice, but he captures that intensity, the precision, the dogged desire to put himself and others at risk for the sake of art. But John Mulaney’s script throws in the most surprising of monkey wrenches: He’s not only documenting the lives of an impoverished tribe of people in Russia, he’s simultaneously producing the pilot for a CBS sitcom called Bachelor Nanny. And of course, he directs a hokey three-camera farce with the same intensity as he would any of his hard-hitting meditations on life, right down to calling up his unstable ringer (August Diehl’s Dieter Diemler, nailing the volatility of Klaus Kinski). A masterclass in elevating the inside-baseball film nerd nature of the premise into something universally hilarious.

My edit of images of Alexander Skarsgård as Rainier/Rainer Wolz. Most are my screen caps, costume designer Claire Finlay Thompson still photographer Will Robson-Scott, and his IMDb page. It was inspired by the edit on Consequence.net.

The collapse of local journalism has been “terrible for democracy,” said Zeeshan Aleem, and it’s even worse now that the void is being filled by partisan propaganda labeled as news. The 1,213 local daily newspapers left in the U.S. are now outnumbered by the estimated 1,260 sites that are partisan mouthpieces deceptively presented as independent news outlets. Most of these sites are published by conservative entrepreneur Brian Timpone’s company, Metric Media, under such “generic-sounding” names such as the Illinois Valley Times and North Pocono News.

They’re designed to look like conventional news outlets, but combine a bit of “quasi-journalistic newsgathering” with agenda-driven stories from political operatives and public relations firms lauding Republican public officials or local corporations. Some are even produced in Russia. Progressive organizations have gotten into the same game, though they are far outnumbered. Journalism, of course, is never 100 percent free of ideological influence. But most Americans do not have the digital media literacy to differentiate between faux news and news sites that strive for accuracy and fairness. The replacement of local news by propaganda is happening “at the worst possible moment for democracy.”

THE WEEK JUNE 28, 2024

Equally concerning is Sinclair Broadcasting.  Another source of politically conservative ideology inserted into local news network affiliates. Very insidious propaganda.  Look for it on your CBS channels.
