The Navy will reportedly sideline 17 vessels due to a manpower shortage that makes it difficult to properly crew and operate ships across the fleet.

Navy to sideline 17 vessels due to manpower shortage, operating crews will be redistributed: report

“This is basically the result of many years of neglect and mismanagement of their force,” Sal Mercogliano, former MSC mariner and associate professor of history at Campbell University told USNI News on Thursday.
“They are just burning through people.”

…

While the order has yet to be signed, Mercogliano has tracked EPFs beginning to return to the U.S. from aboard far from the end of their expected service lives.

“These ships have a lot of life in them,” he said.

You Will Own Nothing and You Will Be Happy…or Not

My internet is down, and I still can’t access my Google Documents. After resetting my network settings, once again, I found that it’s now Charter Communications (Spectrum) that is down. Depending on cloud storage for Google Documents, and a subscription business model (along with cloud storage) for Apple Music, made me think of this TED talk that I watched a few months ago.

About Orit Dolev

No, I haven’t found any connection to the World Economic Forum, and I’m not going to waste any more time looking, as that’s not the point of this post. I do wonder how many people, who believe in the ‘Great Reset’, use either cloud storage or a subscription service. Just do a search for the World Economic Forum and cloud computing, or the World Economic Forum and subscription business model, and you’ll see that they mention them, often.

Anyway, I need to stop dilly-dallying around, online, and set up my laptop. That and install my new modem and wireless mesh network. I’ve been meaning to do it for a while now. First, I need some sleep.

WEF: Psychologists say a good life doesn’t have to be happy, or even meaningful

August 3, 2023August 3, 2023 Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

What does a good life look like to you? For some, the phrase may conjure up images of a close-knit family, a steady job, and a Victorian house at the end of a street arched with oak trees. Others may focus on the goal of making a difference in the world, whether by working as a nurse or teacher, volunteering, or pouring their energy into environmental activism.

Kim Iversen: H.R. McMaster Warns “Be Ready For War With China”. NATO Seeks Indo-Pacific “Friends”

February 2, 2023February 2, 2023 Tina Marie (Ms. Cat)

In the face of increasing tensions between the U.S. and China, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has called for more cooperation and allies in the Indo-Pacific region. Meanwhile, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has accused NATO of wanting to “defeat” Russia, accusing the NATO-backed Ukraine regime of having no “independence” and only acting as a proxy for Western powers. NATO is trying to recruit more allies and build up forces in Europe and the Indo-Pacific, while Russia and China have formed an alliance, strengthening their power and creating another obstacle for the U.S.-led alliance. As the U.S. and its NATO allies prepare for war, questions are being raised about the potential consequences, with some suggesting that politicians may be using it as a way to gain control over the population and advance their globalist agenda.

Interesting information about Tulsi’s connections (it’s a long one)! See the bottom for her connections to other Intelligence Agencies and the WEF. H/T: The Popular Show (they mentioned the Twitter thread, towards the end of the video, but didn’t expound on it).
