Event Update For 2017-12-09





The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.



A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally.
B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species.
C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead.
D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world.
E. More unusual vehicular accidents.
F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

2017-12-09 - Well blowout continues spewing hydrogen sulfide in Missouri City (Texas):
http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/database/index.php?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=ED-20171211-60963-USA
http://www.click2houston.com/news/oil-spill-from-missouri-city-well-continues-to-cause-foul-smell-for-residents

Quote: "Workers continue to clean up an oil well blowout in Missouri City that had residents worried Wednesday. The blowout, which is an uncontrollable release of oil, was reported in the vicinity of Texas Parkway and the Fort Bend Parkway Toll Road, city officials said. A worker told KPRC 2 that a crew was drilling for oil when it began to spew. The odor impacted area communities, but is not considered dangerous, officials said. Residents were asked to remain inside until the odor dissipated. After four days, the foul smell of rotten eggs continues to linger in several areas, which leaves residents frustrated and demanding answers."

Quote: "Officials said the spill wasn't an oil, but rather a chemical compound called hydrogen sulfide, a gas used at the site. Hydrogen sulfide is a colorless gas and depending on the amount of its exposure, could be poisonous with a wide range of health effects. 'Depend on how much hydrogen sulfide you breathe and for how long,' Occupational Safety and Health Administration officials said."

Note: They hadn't mentioned that it was hydrogen sulfide when this first occurred, but I said then that that is probably what it was, in the 2017-12-06 update. This definitely means that the gas in the ground that they're drilling for there is very 'sour' and contains significant amounts of hydrogen sulfide. They're smart to get it out of the ground before it becomes MORE sour and comes out of the ground on its own, but obviously the drilling process isn't always perfectly safe and thus living in areas where there's a lot of gas in the ground can be dangerous...

  1. At 2 a.m. my dog and I both heard "nature" call. Looking out the bathroom window I saw 2 large (probably female) deer (at least 200 lb.) munching in the snow by a peach tree in the back yard. The dog saw them too, when he got downstairs, and gave chase. He's very fast when chasing something (like a squirrel, his usual foe), but he's no match for deer - they left him behind (from a complete stop they were over the fence of my large backyard) in seconds.

    Hull has been hit with multiple events each day there have been reports so far this month.

    It sure looks like there's going to be no place to live eventually, what with all the apartments and homes burning down.

    Kate Steinle Memorial March in Portland attacked by Antifa
    https://www.sott.net/article/370897-Kate-Steinle-Memorial-March-in-Portland-attacked-by-Antifa

    [Antifa is a domestic TERRORIST organization . .]

    Controversial Portland Police Sergeant Chadd Stensgaard can be seen berating the man known as "Tiny", the giant pro Trump Samoan dude. Something about "stay on your side of the street," as Tiny tries to wash pepper spray out of his eyes. Tiny was subsequently arrested for this, booked on Disorderly Conduct, Harassment, and Assault IV charges. He was the only one arrested. So, in the People's Republic Of Portland, it's perfectly alright for the violent Antifa to come over onto the supposedly designated Trump side of the street and start fights, but a Trump supporter can't go over to the supposedly "Antifa" side of the street.

    «All the graphs we are seeing, are following the exponential curve. Yet now, Michael E Mann doesn’t seem to be able to see it. He’s still part of the disaster capitalists who think we can go to alternative energy, and it will solve things, and we can have electric cars, but the reality is that the carbon footprint of producing all of those things is enormous in itself. And there is zero substitute for liquid hydrocarbons. I do not for one second believe that industrial civilisation will see out the decade. So what’s that, 26 months. I think collapse is unfolding now, not some time in the future. I think collapse is unfolding as you and I speak today.»

  3. Nearly 1,000 more people died in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria
    http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2017/12/nearly-1000-more-people-died-in-puerto.html

    It’s official. In the 40 days after Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico, at least 985 additional people died, when compared to the same period in 2016.
    And if the entire months of September and October are included (since Hurricane Irma also passed through the island days before Maria), the figure rises to 1,065 deaths — despite the fact that Puerto Rico lost more than 100,000 inhabitants due to migration this year, according to estimates from the Center for Puerto Rican Studies of The City University of New York.

    Why are America’s farmers killing themselves in record numbers?
    http://www.desdemonadespair.net/2017/12/why-are-americas-farmers-killing.html

    After the study was released, Newsweek reported that the suicide death rate for farmers was more than double that of military veterans. This, however, could be an underestimate, as the data collected skipped several major agricultural states, including Iowa. Rosmann and other experts add that the farmer suicide rate might be higher, because an unknown number of farmers disguise their suicides as farm accidents.

    The US farmer suicide crisis echoes a much larger farmer suicide crisis happening globally: an Australian farmer dies by suicide every four days; in the UK, one farmer a week takes his or her own life; in France, one farmer dies by suicide every two days; in India, more than 270,000 farmers have died by suicide since 1995.

    Hundreds of schools are closed across the United Kingdom today, December 11, 2017, in the wake of Storm Caroline which moved away from British Isles December 8 toward Scandinavia. Caroline allowed cold arctic air to move in and cover the UK with bitterly cold temperatures and snow, causing severe traffic disruption and leaving tens of thousands without power. The deepest weekend snow fell over higher ground on northern and western areas. Temperatures dropped down to -12 °C (10.4 °F) overnight Monday and combined with precipitation for an icy start and dangerous morning rush hour. [more]
