In case you were interested or looking for like-minded souls.

Still, stay out of the Greater Middle East and Africa.

But then, YOU KNEW THAT.

And look where they’re going.  Most of them places I’d live in a heartbeat and a few where it’s safe to store metals.

In order of attractiveness:

• UAE
• Australia
• Singapore
• Israel
• Switzerland
• US
• Portugal
• Greece
• Canada
• New Zealand

As you can see, except for the UK, its cradle, the ANGLOSPHERE is in heavy demand.

Not so for a good chunk of Eurasia, including the three major BRICS, which despite their TRUMPETED PROSPECTS, are losing the wealthy in droves.

The other major BRIC, Brazil, isn’t faring much better.

The losers in descending order:

• Russia
• China
• India
• Hong Kong
• Ukraine
• Brazil
• UK
• Mexico
• Saudi Arabia
• Indonesia

What millionaire — OR ANYONE — would be dying to live in any of these countries?

NOT I.

Mainly in Western Europe and the Anglosphere, ex-the US.

And since 1945.

Ask Noam Chomsky.

It’s difficult to emphasize the seriousness of what follows.

SIGNIFICANT WATER RESTRICTIONS ARE COMING FOR ARIZONA, CALIFORNIA and NEW MEXICO.

YET, many don’t seem to realize this.

Check out the following graphic, photos, tweets and video:

BREAKING: Lake Mead has now dropped to 1044.39 feet in elevation for the first time since the lake was filled nearly 100 years ago.

This is a loss of 1.18 feet or 14.2" in the last 7 days when I last reported on this.

Dead pool is now < 150 feet away.https://t.co/7fUfKF4exK pic.twitter.com/5TBQgvcntt

Lake Mead and Lake Powell, the 2 largest reservoirs in the US, which provide water to over 40 million Americans in Nevada, Arizona and California, are at their lowest levels ever.

This will have unprecedented consequences and require drastic water restrictions never seen before. pic.twitter.com/VSb6ZMtPRq

It’s not just Ukraine.  No, not by a long shot.

Here, from Michael Every at Rabobank, is ALSO what’s brewing:

• Europe is full of problems, as is the UK, and both are raising problems for each other.
• Turkey and Greece are at serious loggerheads.
• Africa is seeing less European influence just as its resources become more vital to the EU.
• US ally Colombia voted in a former rebel leftist as president, shifting LatAm further from the US orbit – the next key election is Brazil on 2 October.
• Israel will call new elections for 25 October, which will likely produce unstable/caretaker Prime Minister Lapid or a comeback for Netanyahu.
• There is a flurry of activity in the Middle East centred around Iran, more of whose nuclear scientists are suddenly dying.
• Tensions in the Taiwan Straits are escalating as China claims they are not international waters, just after announcing its armed forces can operate abroad outside of declarations of war.
• The Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) goes into effect today, blocking all imports to the US originating in whole or part from Xinjiang – though if/how this will be enforced remains to be seen.
• In ASEAN, the Philippine Senate just adjourned its last session without ratifying the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) agreement due to objections that accession will harm the country’s farmers.
• Even Kazakhstan and Russia just blocked each other’s oil and coal exports.

AND, SORRY TO SAY, THERE’S MORE ON THE WAY.

AND DON’T WE ALL KNOW IT.

First Germany, now the Netherlands.

From The Epoch Times:

Netherlands Lifting Restrictions on Coal-Fired Power Stations Amid Drop in Gas Supplies from Russia

The headline:

“The Netherlands is following in the footsteps of neighboring Germany and lifting a cap on production by coal-fired power stations in an effort to prevent a winter energy crisis amid a drop in gas supplies from Russia.”

NEXT UP?

Personally?

THE GREEK ISLANDS.

And it’s not even close.

I’ll let the IRONY of this SPEAK FOR ITSELF.

From Deutsche Welle:

Germany to Fire Up Coal Plants as Russia Turns Down the Gas

What CLIMATE ADVOCATES have never grasped is that in a society as COMPLEX AS OURS, transition isn’t the same as MERELY PRESSING A BUTTON.

In some cases, our TECHNOLOGICAL COMPLEXITY OVERRIDES OUR TECHNOLOGICAL DEXTERITY.

In others, UNFORSEEN EVENTS, such as the Russo-Ukrainian war produce systemic, knock-on effects.

THERE ARE NO SILVER BULLETS.  POSSIBILITY CUTS BOTH WAYS.

Bulls, wait your turn.  You enjoy longer runs.

Besides, THE BEARS ARE STEPPING TO THE PLATE.

Jesus, what took so long?

Yes, they should compete among themselves.  They claim to no longer be men, but they’re SURE AS HELL not women.

The skinny from Paul Joseph Watson:

“Swimming’s world governing body has slapped a total ban on transgender athletes that have gone through any form of male puberty from taking part in women’s competitions.”

And a happy reaction:
