Guess what. Z bugs are here. A Mexican restaurant by the ocean has a bowl of crickets with like juice on the menu. Like juice I meant.
Interesting
I haven’t seen or noticed anyway a text or email asking to sell my metals to Apmex since 2011. Just didn’t say over spot like it did then but message came at the top.

What constitutes hate speech due to a inferiority complex.
Mr.Copper
Check out deer 79 ‘s link to Sachs talking on the subject…he is very good on the whole Ukraine story…but even he doesn’t go near the Globalist part….whereby the Globalists teamed up with the MIC/Neocons to take out Putin and take control of Russia…..the MIC/Neocons love war and need wars to feed the MIC and the Globalists hate everything that Putin stands for eg the family, patriotism, no trannies etc….
It has to be one of the craziest times of the World…ever .

re part:
“Ukraine’s pro-Russian President, Viktor Yanukovych, was ousted after mass protests”
Comment: Who were the protesters? My guess it was the vocally loud minority liberals from Germany. Conservatives mostly don’t do that. Unless they suspect a rigged election.
I read long ago the real estate in Ukraine was very cheap. So I assume liberal migrants from Germany were moving east into Ukraine, and maybe that’s why Putin called them nazis.
I’m sure the Russians HATE the Germans because of what they had to endure with Hitler attacking them. To me, Europeans are spoiled brats, and they just want to expand.
Look how they took over the USA financial system in 1913 with the Fed Res Act. Well imo 9/11/01 started an end to the NWO of 1913. It was confirmed with the 2008 financial crisis, and Trump getting elected.
Take note, Gold was $250/oz in 2001, and now its near $3,000/oz. What does that tell you? The Fed Res Act is finished, running on fumes.
DEI in the sky or the tower.
Another almost accident at Chicago Airport. South West got clear to land and the tires from the video were inches from the ground and here comes a small private jet landing at a intersection horizontal from it cutting right in front of its path at the intersection in front of southeast and private jet didn’t even speed up to get out of it’s way probably already in landing mode. Lucky didn’t initiate landing and the reverse thrusters weren’t on yet or southwest was able to fly over the other. I can see some upset after the black hawk crash but what’s going on and with the towers?!?

Good luck making those batteries (that don’t blow up) with silver at $200 and oil at $300 in just a few years.
And it won’t stop there. The morons in charge have made sure this commodities/currencies super-cycle will be a dousey.

Ferrett and Mr. Copper
This is a clip where Jeffrey Sachs ( a public policy analyst, professor at Columbia) gives a very thorough account starting in 1990.
I firmly believe that, yes, Russia did invade Ukraine, but it’s not as simple as that. There was something called the Minsk agreement (which was conjured up by the western allies, only to be flat out ignored).
Here is the link ( hope it works)….

Mr Copper, re Ukraine.
NATO, the US and UK started the war. In 1991 they all said that NATO would not expand on inch East beyond the new, united German border. I remember watching them say it on TV, and thinking that the Russians surely aren’t stupid enough to trust them. That promise has been broken 14 times since then. Ukraine killing c. 14,000 Russian speaking people in the Donbass since 2014 was the final straw. Using the same R2D basis for America bombing Serbia to stop the genocide in Kosovo, Russia started its Special Operation.
The Russians had every reason to distrust the West before 2014, or 1991. In 1942 the West (Germany) attacked Stalingrad. The West (USA) had been promising a second front against Germany but it never materialised. Eventually the Russians surrounded and starved the Wehrmacht into submission, turning the tide of the war for the West (Allied forces) to finally open the front in 1944. TOTAL non Russian allied losses in the war, 1.5m people. Russian losses at Stalingrad alone, over 1m.
We have an excellent track record of breaking promises.
Trump Says Ukraine started the war with Russia
Key Events Leading to the War:
-
2014 – Maidan Uprising & Crimea
- Ukraine’s pro-Russian President, Viktor Yanukovych, was ousted after mass protests (Euromaidan).
- Russia responded by annexing Crimea and supporting separatist movements in Donetsk and Luhansk (Donbas region).
- Fighting between Ukrainian forces and Russian-backed separatists began in Eastern Ukraine, lasting for years.
-
2014-2022 – Ongoing Conflict
- Ukraine fought separatists in Donbas, but it never invaded Russian territory.
- Various ceasefires were attempted but regularly broken.
- The U.S. and NATO provided increasing support to Ukraine, which Russia saw as a threat.
-
2021-2022 – Russia’s Justifications for War
- Russia claimed Ukraine was attacking civilians in Donbas (though Ukraine denied this).
- Russia opposed Ukraine’s growing ties with NATO and the West.
- Russia recognized Donetsk and Luhansk as independent republics.
-
February 24, 2022 – Russia Invades
- Russia launched a full-scale invasion, calling it a “special military operation.”
- Ukraine defended itself, with Western countries providing military aid.
Who Started the War?
- If you view the war as beginning in 2022, Russia launched the invasion.
- If you go back to 2014, Ukraine fought separatists in its own territory, but Russia was heavily involved in supporting them.
- Russia argues that NATO and Ukraine provoked the war, while Ukraine and the West say Russia invaded unprovoked.
The war is part of a much larger geopolitical struggle between Russia and the West. The truth depends on how far back you want to look and whose perspective you consider.

I’m a data center architect- and of course batteries are how we are going to flatten the duck curve
I designed Fed Ex’s data processing center where every package in the world is tracked in CO Springs. I saved Fed Ex 90% on their data center cooling bill, using free-side cooling moving out of TX. I get 90% of my cooling without A/C for the entire server farm. So be super sure about what you say. Batteries can’t be stopped, we’re going to shave off peak power production, save it in batteries and run through out the night EVERYWHERE in the USA. Stick a fork in all other ideas.
ipso facto @ 9:21
Fools generally get what they deserve.
This is just the beginning in the lithium battery story.
Silver batteries are much more expensive, but they are stable.
Moral of the story is we are going to have far less more expensive electricity eventually (so good luck with your data centers/control state … a**holes).
But we are not supposed to talk about that.

Dan Bongino
And so late Sunday evening after the 60-Minutes pity party, came the pretty astounding news that former Secret Service agent and now podcaster Dan Bongino is appointed Deputy Director of the FBI. Astounding because Mr. Bongino has documented the worst blob crimes of recent years in a series of books that comprehensively presents the entire tapestry of lawlessness in microscopic detail. He knows the whole sordid, epic story, all the names, and all the money trails in every obscure corner of the worst aggregate matrix of scandals in US history. Believe me when I tell you, this is like a death sentence for the blob.
Bitcoin getting smashed down over 5%
Worse than pm’s
So there’s that.?
The good thing
is that rates and the dollar are falling, oil too. Maybe some deflationary winds will start to blow, all of which will ultimately be good for pm’s. In the meantime we have to weather the nasty storm.
The real pm market finally arrived
This is how we always act when the SM corrects, at least in the beginning. The biggest problem is that the shares never really got going with the metals. They’ve traded like gold was $2300 and silver under $30. Makes it hard to know when this becomes a good buying opportunity. The other thing is that the SM has barely corrected, so how far do the shares drop? HUI 200?
Same as it always is. Money pit.

It’s a close call!

Re those battery farms….one of those next door will do wonders for yr property values !!!!!!
It might be worse than being long PM shares. !!!!!!!!
