The Farce Wears On

Thunberg made headlines for sailing to New York on a yacht, a trip that was a little more harmful to the environment than she likes to let on. She came to New York to speak about climate change. Her speech was applauded by leftists, but it sounded more like a teenager just coming up with an excuse not to go to school.

“This is all wrong. I shouldn’t be up here. I should be back in school on the other side of the ocean. Yet you have come to us young people for hope. How dare you? You have stolen my dreams, my childhood with your empty words,” she said.

The 16-year-old, whose name is Greta Thunberg, suffers from Asperger Syndrome, a condition on the autism spectrum. One wouldn’t normally expect someone with Asperger’s to be chosen as the spokesperson for a global movement, given that sufferers from that condition are characteristically lacking in nonverbal communication, struggle with empathy, are typically very uncomfortable around large crowds, obsess pathologically about subjects not under their control, and often engage in long rants without consideration for how they will be received. Thunberg appears to be a more serious case, suffering from depression so severe she once went two months without eating and had to be pulled out of school.

The eco-fascists have now turned to terrorizing and mentally abusing their own children as a tactic for social influence. Greta Thunberg — the hysterical 16-year-old girl who has been rolled out by her Antifa-linked parents to lecture the world about the climate change hoax —  is apparently a prisoner of a torturous brainwashing / indoctrination scheme that has terrorized the poor girl into believing she will literally die if global warming isn’t stopped.

Thunberg has a myriad of mental health issues. She is autistic, has obsessive-compulsive disorder, and suffers from Asperger syndrome and the left is pushing her out onto the world stage and exploiting her.

It sure pays well:

Greta Thunberg, the 16-year-old Swedish girl the left has turned into their poster child for climate change fear-mongering, has been awarded one million kronor ($103,000) for her climate change activism.

"How dare you", indeed.

 

Now It's An "illness"

A German court has ruled hangovers are an "illness", in a case against the maker of an anti-hangover drink.

In its ruling, the court said illnesses included even small or temporary changes to the body's normal state.

Amazing. Do they get "sick leave" as well?

 

The Kid

The left’s latest media darling is 16-year-old Swede Greta Thunberg, an unfortunate victim of Marxists and globalists who have terrified her about a make-believe future fraught with mass extinctions brought about by man-made climate change.

Why anybody pays attention to the little loudmouth is quite beyond me.

According to Wikipedia, Thunberg has been “diagnosed with Asperger syndrome, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and selective mutism.

And we're supposed to care about what she says?

 

History Mysteries

The Spanish Stonehenge:

The Dolmen of Guadalperal comprises more than 100 upright rocks, arranged in a circle formation.

This formation is surrounded by a ring of stones piled on top of each other with an entrance that faces the direction of what used to be the banks of the Tagus River.

It is believed to have been built about 7,000 years ago.

AND:

Inca child sacrifice victims were purposefully placed in spots where they would stand a good chance of being struck by lightning, a bioarchaeologist has said.

Researchers were examining the remains of six children found on two volcanoes in Peru—Ampato and Pitchu Pitchu—in a bid to find out where in the empire they had come from.

The children, they said, had been placed on special sacrificial stone platforms in areas known to be exposed to lightning strikes, Science in Poland (PAP), a website run by the country's Ministry of Science and Higher Education, reports. The platforms are believed to have been repeatedly struck by lightning, which explains why some of the remains—including clothes and soft tissues—had not been preserved as well as other Incan sacrifice victims. Child sacrifice in the Incan Empire was performed as part of the capacocha ritual. Children were chosen because they were thought to be the purest of society, therefore the best people to offer to the gods.

 

 

Florida Man, Meet Florida Woman

SEPTEMBER 23--A Florida Woman who “wanted to eat more than her fair share of tomatoes at the dinner table” is facing criminal charges after allegedly assaulting elderly relatives who thwarted her grubby vegetable gambit, records show.

Katie Jade Gates, 19, allegedly became incensed when she was denied additional tomatoes during supper on September 12 at her family’s home in Callahan, a town 20 miles north of Jacksonville.

Tomatoes? Really?

That kid's got some serious issues. But she seems to have great teeth. Needs a stylist for her hair, though.

 

Smoke Break?

Federal prosecutors in California are conducting a criminal probe into e-cigarette maker Juul Labs Inc., according to people familiar with the matter, escalating law-enforcement scrutiny of the startup.

Altria, the maker of Marlboro cigarettes, recently invested almost $13 billion in e-cigarette company Juul. Some experts say in its early days Juul mirrored the tobacco industry’s promotional playbook in an effort to hook young people.

Come to where the flavor is.

 

Kind Of Scary, But It's Your Future

Aram Sinnreich recently went grocery shopping at a Whole Foods Market in his hometown of Washington, D.C., and realized he had left his wallet at home. He had no cards and no cash, but he had no reason to worry — at least, not about paying for his food. “I used my iPhone to pay, and I unlocked it with my face,” he said.

That’s when it struck him: We are just one small step away from paying with our bodily features alone. With in-store facial-recognition machines, he wouldn’t even need his smartphone.

Welcome to your new world, Citizen.

 You're phones out of date, anyway....

Peach Fortify!

It appears that the young congress member from New York has "decided" to join Mad Maxine's call to "'Peach Fortify". I used "decided" in the note because, although she has a big mouth, there's really nothing in her head apart from air.

 

Animals, Again

The Comanche National Grassland is home to thousands and thousands of Oklahoma Brown tarantulas. The grassland is comprised of nearly half a million acres of remote, undeveloped public land just south of La Junta and it is the optimal place to view the tarantulas. While it is commonly referred to as tarantula "migration," the spiders aren’t really migrating from one place to another. Instead, they are emerging from their burrows and traveling an unknown distance in search of a mate. Outside of mating season, tarantulas always stay within two or three inches of their burrow.

And now, plague-ridden prairie dogs...

COMMERCE CITY, Colo. — Plague has been confirmed in prairie dogs at several sites in the Denver suburb of Commerce City, prompting officials to close some parks and take other precautions.

The Tri-County Health Department said prairie dog burrows are being sprayed with insecticide to kill fleas that could transmit the disease to the rodents, people and pets.

Closer to home, it's deer rescue season. It's illegal to shoot 'em in a water tank.

ST. HELENS, Ore. — Firefighters with Columbia River Fire & Rescue were called for an unusual rescue Sunday morning.

At around 7:30 a.m. the fire department received a call about a deer trapped inside a contact tank at the St. Helens water treatment plant.

The deer had one small area where it could stand. The rest of the tank is about 25 feet deep and full of water, according to Columbia River Fire & Rescue.

 

Why I Don't Do "Smart"

MILWAUKEE -- A Milwaukee couple said their smart home was hacked. Their camera began talking to them, and their thermostat reached upwards of 90 degrees.

The Westmoreland family installed a Nest camera, doorbell, and thermostat in their home in 2018. They had no problems until they heard a voice talking through a camera in their kitchen.

"It's supposed to make me feel safe, and I didn't feel safe," said Samantha Westmoreland.

The Westmorelands said they're upset their $700 system was a gateway into their home.

I prefer old-school; lock the doors. Less expensive, too.
