Close up on China

 

Difficult to see anything intelligent ATM on American tv about China so here's the BEV (Benji eye view).

A naval skirmish could ensue for a number of reasons. This could result in an American air craft carrier being sunk. Ultimately the Chinese Navy would fail due to paper-tigerdom (low morale, no experience, crybaby seamen, corruption, incompetence). A Navy blockade of the Malacca Straits would stop oil flow to China, accelerating the demise of the economy there which is already teetering.

The CCP is offering bluster and cocksurity out of a somewhat uncertain sense of confidence. They're also in a difficult situation as economy in China is faltering. They might welcome war.

I'm pro war here. I'd definitely look at Defcon 5 and protecting satellite GPS and worry about hypersonic missiles if I was in Joint Chiefs.

A complete breakdown and reset of the Chinese economy could lead to major supply chain disruptions around the world accelerating socialism. Ultimately people will fight and die for computer chips. Any freedoms surrendered to the CCP from fear of fighting a war will be paid for with viruses and God knows what else.

I think China could be ready for democracy but the Chinese populace are also ready just to overthrow their own government anyway due to mortgage crisis and lockdowns. Curious to see how they could be organised there without strong hands amongst themselves (like the CCP and cops).

Weekday mournings [sic] with Benji

 

Typically if not on the boat, which is most days (not on it). I'll try to get stuff done. Some things like making coffee or ironing might permit listening to Tucker Carlson or someone from Fox News or some other news source, like this morning I blogged something while listening, watching French news. I had a french couple on the bus yesterday and commented on the second bus ride to the French guy in French and he said it was his first day in Australia so I just welcomed him in French. 

Sometimes it's like, what's going to be more entertaining? listening to someone else's music? my music (my doonsin poopsin song). Or YouTube news sources. 

The pursuit of happiness.

The great Australian philosopher Dean Deane

I mean regarding that last post, I mean I wasn't really into sex or girls as a 16/17 year old much. I might kiss a girl here or there but not much. I guess when I say it would have been good to tap the hot blonde girl from year 11 or Laura or whoever from year 11, maybe that would more be like get to second base or something like that. I mean that Jewish girl and I, from five years later, were just screwing like crazy and I could not see the point of our relationship except for sex and to become an aspiring choreographer or something. Kinda nonsensical. I mean that hot blonde girl had a boyfriend anyway and they were probably screwing like crazy and it just wasn't something I wanted to do as a seventeen year old. Even as a 21 or 22 year old, in hindsight, what was the point with jewgirl 2.0? (jewgirl 1.0 was irresistible* so no point second guessing that). Nonsensical...

Kind of like the expression: 'famous Australian philosopher'. Every Australian knows about Dean Deane the famous Dean of philosophy at the University of Coburg & Launceston. He is said to have turned fur dean a year after turning twelve and a year before turning faw dean. Five years later he became a dean. Years old. It's what we study at school. Just ask someone like.

Many of Dean Dean Deane's (formerly Dean Deane before he attained the Deanhood of the university of Coburg and Launceston) books are Australian and international bestsellers of 22nd century philosophy:

Lesbians and fags can be friends.

I can retard, so can you.

We're 30% gay, 70% hetero, now what?

Light my fire with your lida.

And the hit sequel: I lied when I said light my fire with your lida.

Can sir cancer.

You said teen instead of dean let's lock you up with the criminally insane.

What are you complaining about I just vomited in your face and you never even said thanks.

If you don't like your doodle chop it off and get a new one.

* If this Jessica Simpson pop song was about a girl it would have been about my girlfriend jewgirl 1.0 from age 20/21:

Just sayin'....

Mexicans in the USA invariably call each other 'primo' (cousin)... this means if TS Elliott and Missy Elliott were Mexicans in the USA Missy would call TS 'primo' even if they weren't actually cousins

Missy Elliott...

https://youtu.be/iBHNgV6_znU

As a young and brooding intellectual, I was singularly unimpressed with TS Elliott's poetry in my junior year of high school, turning 17 or actually 17. Even now, looking back he seems utterly inconsequential. By comparison, the Canadian rock group, the Crash Test Dummies, who actually used one of TS Elliott's famous poem lines about measuring afternoons with coffee spoons, actually seemed to have a lot more exciting things to say in their lyrics. And their music was so often impressive and original.

I walked away from TS Elliott thinking he was an utter non entity. Even the dog from Seth MacFarlane's Family Guy, who fashions himself as an aspiring LA writer or the like, seems far more capable than TS Elliott.

In fact, I cannot take TS Elliott seriously at all. Like John McEnroe, fuming with anger, smashing his tumblers and toasters and crystal goblets and whatever you can call a drinking vessel or jar made from glass, 'he (TS ELLIOTT) cannot be serious!' 

He cannot be serious!!!!

https://youtu.be/t0hK1wyrrAU

Everyone saw his poetry was inconsequential! Everyone except my year 11 English teacher, Mr Starling. Also my Legal Studies teacher and like my teacher for one other thing, it seemed 17 and me and Mr Starling were a whole thing. My classmate Wendy or whatever her name was would come by with her giggling laughs, like a six year old, and start playing with my hair. How could a seventeen year old girl act like a six year old so unashamedly? I could not understand if she ever felt any passion for me or just childish affection.

At our table under Mr Starling's own youthful gaze, he couldn't have been older than 22  or 24 himself, just a kid, apart from Wendy and I and the carrot-colored-hair television stat (or star, whatever) muchacho from the tv adventure island Saturday morning tv show whatever it was. There was Bernadette. An extremely sexy looking Asian girl with her unforgettable tight shirts and tight skirts, always a pleasure to roll my gaze over every curve and bang of her hair. Her dark eyes smoldered like a South East Asian jungle spewing smoke or fog or something. Long jet black straight hair, well cared for. Short, like barely five feet tall. Who could remember who the other dummies were?

Afternoons and coiffure spoons... Crash Test Dimmies...

https://youtu.be/W0YeGv5xHUU

Catherine, that's right. Her and Bernadette became lawyers in the end. Catherine was very sensible in an English kind of way, she looking to be quite English like Wendy, but also like Wendy, not a looker, not real sexy. Unlike Wendy she was not given to unusual displays of affection involving ambushing me and rubbing my coiffure. Giggling hysterically, childlike.

Another blonde, white girl, this one very hot, not in my classes, borrowed a VHS video tape from me and never returned it. Maybe that was her way of flirting. I think Laura the south American girl in Spanish class definitely liked me. She called me a rebel one day in class. Then Alejandro the Uruguayan muchacho heard that and thought it was so funny. Five years later I would run into him again with my Jew girl college girlfriend in the long pedestrian tunnel running out of Central station.

My mother did always say, emphatically, 'be care-eff-full (three syllables) when you get on the train!!!!'.... maybe she was worried about the crash test dummies. I wonder why Mrs Wolowitz never warned her son about being care-eff-full when he had to get on the train....

https://youtu.be/7EBN0xlUGOg

I guess the takeaway is Wendy, Bernadette, Catherine, the hot looking blonde girl with my VHS tape, Laura the south American, even our Spanish teacher from Kentucky, and my Jew girl girlfriend from five years later all probably would have loved it if I had called them señorita, but probably not Mr Starling. No point second guessing the past, but in hindsight, it would have been better only to have tapped Bernadette, the hot blonde with the VHS and possibly Laura, and definitely not the Jew girl.

Would you love it if someone called you señorita, zer/zie?

Tucker Carlson, struggling to be as real as the real niggaz of NWA

 

Obviously NWA exaggerate and embellish, they're entertainers, and so is Rucker [sic]

Latest Tucker:

https://youtu.be/isErc-XwB5I

I approve of the Fox news NY post Miranda Devine junta. I think it's good. Please understand junta means grouping in Spanish and doesn't have English connotations in Spain that might refer to south American banana republics.

With regards to Ukraine. I disapprove as totally fake and ridiculous, the western media fawning of Zelinski. I expect Ben Stiller to be full of shit in real life but I don't care I just enjoy him in Dodgeball and try to leave him alone. I was even invited one time to an event with Ben Stiller but just kind of passed.

Having said that and already stated my disapproval of the American policy of not keeping a sliver of Afghanistan bordering Xinjiang. Tucker's arguments are ridiculous. Biden and the Soviet communist Janet Yellen printed out like 4 trillion dollars from thin air around 2020. Then posted this money out to Americans and spent it on their crony shit politics. Completely fucking America up. This is the murder weapon, the smoking gun, the dill laced putrid engine oil. The four trillion from nowhere. This caused America's inflation. As is typical of the Democrat leadership, they were starving for power while out of office and rushed in as soon as possible to fill the vacuum they had caused by robbing the election and attempting to brainwash the masses and immediately printed out four trillion plus dollars from nowhere.  This has nothing to do with Zelinski. 

This has NOTHING to do with Ukraine or Zilinsky. Why would Zilinsky think about Biden printing out four trillion dollars from nowhere when it's beyond the scope of his care??? Ridiculous.

Biden has spent a moderate 60 billion on Ukraine and the Brits and Germans and EU are also spending and noone was threatening to invade Russia and there are missiles parked all over China and Japan that can bomb Russia. Putin is super old school and he does not have a realistic grasp on making Russia a truly mighty nation. Doing so would inevitably involve real rule of law and real democracy and not just thuggery and top down cleptocrats. 

The Ukrainians certainly have their Himars operating now and Tucker is absolutely talking out of his ass. The Russians are now focused on bombing with long range missiles as the 80km distance of the accurate Himars means many forward Russia munitions depots have already been bombed. Ultimately probably nobody that matters at the Pentagon could feasibly waste time watching Tucker talking shit about this war unless they wanted a distraction like listening to NWA or watching Stiller in Dodgeball. It's the folks at the Pentagon deciding how many Himars missiles to provide. The EU is also forwarding their own system.

Russia's strategic command is absolutely joking however I'm not surprised because I know exactly how Russians think.

Zelinski is doing a pretty good job and he and his people are being unfairly oppressed by the Russians which is nothing new for them and now it's in the EUs backyard we have a whole different game. Even the Spaniards are donating stuff to Zelinski and it's likely the facists under Franco even sent Spanish soldiers to Russia to help the Nazis invade there during world war 2. So let Putin and everyone else know there history. 

Obviously someone needs to slap Tucker in the face for this ridiculousness. Pretty hard too, leaving like a little red mark, but one that would go away after about an hour or something, nothing too crazy. 

I'm disgusted with this nonsense from Tucker. Why doesn't he go get his toenails done at a salon? Can someone explain???????? I can't understand that????!!!!

Effecting an oil change on my american made motor, using suction

 

So for $12.95 I got a little suction device and effected my first oil change in that wise, today. 

I believe it's an American made motor because it sports a sticker saying made in the USA with american and foreign made parts.

I elected for a three step backward step shuffle to squirt the oil out. Sucking oil from engine chamber then stepping backwards three steps to squirt old oil out on the bushes. Then I noticed one of the house hamsters getting too close to the old oil. You could add dill to your oil in that situation if you're interested in murdering your hamster. Just sayin'. Then you'd be illin' and dillin', again, just sayin'. 

I refilled with fresh oil, removing the seal and started the engine a couple of times. A fair amount of smoke belched out briefly while it was still mostly empty of oil. Not unlike a Spanish Iberia airlines jumbo or a 'new' Russian commercial jumbo jet in need of maintenance.

The new oil is on a correct level but there's a goodly leftover amount of the old oil that should have been changed earlier that is mixing in a little and degrading it a little. Will have to re-change around Xmas maybe. Will make a note on my scheduler.

Trump Pence hit DC

https://youtu.be/NLWM0aMwF-0

The jury has found Trump Pence guilty of never effecting an oil change on a cement mixing truck 

That's a lie that's a goddamn lie f*** you you black motherfucker!!!

Get him the f*** out of my courtroom right now, out right now!!!!

Tell them Dre!

Hey y'all, me just simple bus driver ok? Try going into a male bus drivers' restroom. Might ruffle a few lesbian and transgender feathers. Not to mention upsetting the ladies. Pretty dirty, know what I mean? The graffiti on the walls I mean. Dirty pictures etc. Kinda funny too though.

Heck, in light of all that and considering we haven't utilized the wavey screen effect with harp music, like in the Brady Bunch.... Can you imagine what a sit down interview with Trump and Pence might look like now?

Mr and Mr President, Vice President. Again I'm sorry to bring up these scurrilous charges from the mainstream media, you've both been found guilty of not effecting an oil change on a cement mixing truck, meaning you're white bred redneck chicken shit mother effers.

Mike Pence: we are mother effers, technically that's true. But we think it's appalling manners to speak so. 

Trump: right, I mean I sometimes get a red neck if I don't wear suncream in July, I'm definitely guilty of that.

Ok it's embarrassing, let's just go on to an easier question: what's your favorite kind of blue? Elph stone, Cobalt, Sapphire or some other kind. You can just answer at the end if you want. Also what's both your favorite green? Emerald, Jade, dark fir green, etc. Maybe just go to a paintshop and email a color scheme for that one. Definitely not socially awkward like if I were to ask you should I get gender reassignment surgery should I get a rabbi to cut my johnson off, so awkward.

Trump: I don't think I know any rabbis that would do that.

Let's not get into religious freedoms just yet. Unless your priest is Alfred E Neumann. Consider these humorous, 'What evil lurks in the hearts of men' silhouettes. Apparently nice people everywhere but their silhouettes yield a chilling mural of murder and mayhem. What might we see on the sillouette wall in a meeting between you guys and Senate Democrats.

Mike Pence: I'm fully expecting to be raped with a blunt instrument while my organs are ripped out and eaten.

Trump?

Donald Trump: ditto.

Mike Pence: black might not be the most racially sensitive choice of color for that silhouette Ben, how about a nice turquoise blue?

Trump: turquoise is green isn't it?

Ben: I think it can be either. So how about cancelling gay marriage and counselling kids to change gender, can we just make that a crime? If we can't repeal gay marriage can we make three way gay throuples raising designer genetic babies illegal? Donald any ideas? I mean to be honest with you Donald, fuck going to North Korea. How did that turn out for Otto and Dennis Rodman? Pretty hit and miss right? And fuck ceding any more territory to china too. Just a thought.

Mike Pence: Ben I'm kinda getting tired, can we just kick back and listen to Snoop for a bit?

Yes we can Michael..... Tell them Snoop....
