Event Update For 2017-12-19





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.

Note: Apparently there was a fire in the apartment in the morning, which they put out. At least one of them was seen alive in the afternoon. And then they were found dead. They may have breathed some contaminated smoke during the fire, but hydrogen sulfide can have a delayed reaction before you drop dead, and they both died some hours after the fire. The easiest way to see if smoke is contaminated is to breathe some. If you're still alive a week later then it was okay...

    Don't Fight The Fed
    http://ponziworld.blogspot.com/2017/12/dont-fight-fed.html

    as Minsky wrote, financial imbalances accumulate throughout the course of every cycle, which have an unbroken record of self-destructing.

    This week we got a strong taste of how that self-destruction will take place...

    To begin with, implementing a deficit-sponsored fiscal stimulus while tightening monetary policy is the dumbest fucking idea the Idiocracy has yet attempted. It's the economic equivalent of a brake stand. The net effect is to raise interest rates at both ends of the curve, while the Fed is at the same time shrinking the balance sheet - it's a triple tightening... [more]

    [Dear SOTT, get a new dog pic, wi'-ya?!]

    the incident happened at Canine Country Club and Feline Inn

    The 69-year-old victim was taken to the hospital in "very critical condition," an MCACC spokesperson said. However, Phoenix police later confirmed that she has since passed away from her injuries.

    A Valley dog trainer with JD's Boot Camp says it's not unusual for Akitas to be aggressive. The man explained that while they're very courageous and loyal, they're also very protective and are known to need a lot of supervision because of how powerful they can be. [more]

  6. For second night in a row, military bus goes up in flames on I-44 between St. Louis and Fort Leonard Wood (Missouri):

    http://www.ky3.com/content/news/Second-bus-fire-in-as-many-nights-on-I-44-465681153.html

    The first one was heading to the fort to pick up a load of soldiers. The second one was heading away from the fort with a load of soldiers.

    I rode a whole lot of buses in the Army. I don't recall any bus fires at all occurring anywhere in those four years, much less two in two days on the same highway in the same area. Granted, there was no internet back then, so news spread more slowly, but still.
