 its mask off stuff, the USA exerts soft pressure on many of its allies, and has done for the last century at least.
Openly threatening its allies shows the world exactly where they stand with the USA and the sooner they start relying on themselves the better.

This threat came one day before threatening not to run elections this year. Full on autocratic coup

As I'm currently glued to my telephone, trying to coordinate treatment for a hospitalized family member, I have way, way too much waiting time on my hands. But, it is a busy news day, and here's another story that's keeping me occupied during my waiting for callbacks:

APSU to pay $500,000 to professor fired, then reinstated over Charlie Kirk post
   
"Austin Peay State University will pay one of its professors $500,000 after initially firing him for a social media post in the wake of Charlie Kirk's death."

As per this article:

"CLARKSVILLE, TN (WKRN) – Austin Peay State University will pay one of its professors $500,000 after initially firing him for a social media post made in the wake of conservative activist Charlie Kirk's death.

Darren Michael, an associate professor of acting and directing at APSU, was fired by the institution last year after comments on Kirk's death. In September, APSU moved Michael to suspension before fully bringing him back into the classroom last month.

On Monday, WKRN News 2 obtained a copy of a settlement agreement and settlement authorization indicating APSU will pay Michael $500,000 and reimburse therapeutic counseling services for Michael."

And so, boy and girls, I think the moral of this story is "Resistance is not always futile."

Aneristic Illusions / The Greenland Invasion Threat
Last post by Abbot Mythos - January 07, 2026, 02:45:37 PM
This is yet another "You can't make this stuff up." situation.

Up until now I thought this threat from the POSOTUS, and PeeWee Goebbels the Jewish Nazi, was too ridiculous to take seriously. I wrote it off as yet another manufactured controversy being utilized to 'flood the zone' with distractions away from the Turd Reich's Trump-Epstein Files problem.

But, the threats aren't going away, and we've reached the point where some high-ranking members of the GOP are finally feeling the necessity to publicly address this issue as follows:     

Trump's Threats Against Greenland Draw GOP Pushback

""We're not going to take over another country that's our ally," Sen. Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) said of President Trump's threats against Greenland."

And so, as per this article:

"Rep. Don Bacon (R-Neb.) was even more blunt about the matter.

"This is really dumb," Bacon, a retired Air Force brigadier general, wrote in a post online in response to White House adviser Stephen Miller advocating in an interview on CNN for the U.S. to take Greenland.

"Greenland and Denmark are our allies," Bacon added. "There is no upside to demeaning our friends. But, it is causing wounds that will take time to heal.""

Once again, "You can't make this stuff up."

Look who else is keeping the Chemtrails Conspiracy Theory alive and well:

Where the chemtrails aren't: Florida airport reports show no weather modification activity

As per this article/video:

"Florida's airports are now required to submit monthly reports on weather-modification activities. Have there been any? News 6 requested the reports."

Governor DeSilliness and Floriduh are doing their part!

Where are the Discordians now?

Quote from: Brother Mythos on January 06, 2024, 01:05:33 AMJanuary 6, 2021 - A failed coup d'état was attempted by TFG

I don't know how history will eventually name this day. I'm in favor of calling it "Failed Coup d'état Day," because I believe TFG should always, and only be remembered for his many crimes and failures.

"Insurrection Day" is my second choice.

If this forum were more active, I would add some more possible choices, and then create a poll. But, ... <shrug>.

So, here we are four years later. But, as a reward for his failed coup d'état, 'Merica's trailer trash, with substantial support from the MSM, Republicult™ media outlets, and numerous oligarchs, has given TTSS yet another chance to destroy our republic. The Resistance 2.0 has it's work cut out for it.
Now, five years after the unprecedented 'Merican historical event, the undisputed leader of Insurrection Day is the sitting POSOTUS.

This happened because on Tuesday, Election Day, November 5th, 2024, 77,303,568 'Mericans saw a twice impeached, 2020 election loser, convicted felon, and adjudicated rapist on the ballot with an 'R' after its name, and said to themselves something to the effect of, "Oh, hell yeah! Gimme some more of that!"

I could have posted this in the 'The Venezuela Invasion' topic. But, this article just screams Toxic Ego:

Trump Made Huge Diplomatic Move Because His Feeling Got Hurt

"|STILL STINGS] The president reportedly declined to install opposition leader María Corina Machado as head of the country because she didn't turn the prize down."

As per this article:

"White House insiders say President Donald Trump chose not to install a nominal ally as leader of Venezuela following his lightning invasion this weekend because she bruised his ego.
 
Many expected that after the MAGA administration's shocking capture of Nicolas Maduro in the early hours of Saturday, Trump might have sought to appoint opposition figurehead María Corina Machado as the oil-rich nation's new head of state.
 
Two people "close to the White House" told The Washington Post on Monday the president declined to do so because Machado had committed the "ultimate sin" of offending his pride.

They cited the opposition leader's decision in November to accept the Nobel Peace Prize rather than turning it down to protest the committee's decision not to give it to Trump.
 
"If she had turned it down and said, 'I can't accept it because it's Donald Trump's,' she'd be the president of Venezuela today," the newspaper's sources said."

Given the well known history of His Vileness, this current incident shouldn't come as much of a surprise to anyone. So, right now, the only question in my mind is, "Was this example of the POSOTUS' toxic ego intentionally spoon-fed to the press by loyal sycophants, or are there really "Two people "close to the White House"" who are genuinely appalled by his behavior?"

Now, about those 'Merican Oil Oligarchs:

Donald Trump Says He Spoke to Oil Companies Before Venezuela Action

As per this article:

"President Donald Trump has confirmed he spoke with oil companies "before and after" the operation to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.
 
Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One on Sunday, Trump said he had spoken to "all" of the oil firms before the raid took place, without specifying what these conversations involved.

"They want to go in. And they're going to do a great job for the people of Venezuela. And they're going to represent us well," he added."

And, further along in this article:

"However, the raid has drawn criticism on international legal grounds, while leaving other countries in Latin America as well as Greenland on heightened alert. At the same time, the consultation with oil firms—rather than Congress—has now attracted scrutiny from U.S. lawmakers, who believe the administration bypassed the domestic prerequisites for what some consider an act of war."

Oh, and I also learned a new work today:

"The essence of neo-colonialism is that the State which is subject to it is, in theory, independent and has all the outward trappings of international sovereignty. In reality its economic system and thus its political policy is directed from outside."

Again, I'm not 100% certain, as I was not a political science major at 'uni,' but this kind of looks to me like the direction 'Merican Oil Oligarchs may soon be steering Venezuela.

Principia Discussion / Re: Have a Merry Mungday!
Last post by Abbot Mythos - January 05, 2026, 02:14:35 AM
'Tis the fifth day of the first season of the Year of Our Lady of Discord 3192, and once again time to honor the Patron Saint of The Season of Chaos, Apostle Hung Mung.

For as Episkopos Good Lord Omar Khayyam Ravenhurst, KSC, himself wrote in The Honest Book of Truth, "Hung Mung, Chaoist Sage and True Man of Old, is Patriarch of Chaos." And, he told us that it was Apostle Hung Mung himself who enlightened the legendary Chinese philosopher Lao-tse.

Now, according to Lord Omar, Apostle Hung Mung was not your run-of-the-mill, conventional saint. The Patriarch of Chaos was, definitely, not a saint who spent his time "marching in." No, rather than "marching in," Hung Mung took to "rambling about slapping his buttocks and hopping like a bird." And, in fact, our Apostle's unique technique proved to be highly effective. For, by way of comparison, have you ever heard of any other saint "marching in" anywhere, who ever enlightened anyone? Anyone at all?

Hail Eris!

All Hail Discordia!
