When I recorded this a few days ago, Bitcoin (BTC) had hit an all time high of $73K per bitcoin. It’s hovering in the high $60K’s for the time being. One thing to keep in mind - Bitcoin is not Crypto.
As the West’s, particularly the USA and Canada’s finances get manipulated and bastardized by the twisted oddballs who run the place, regular people will always search for a safe haven. I know I do.

A 'moat' has been set up around various sectors of the energy economy and its stocks. This allows you to invest in companies that ... have little to no competition
We are in the middle of Homer’s “The Odyssey”.
Many of you will remember the bag of wind that Aeolus gave Odysseus, and the ONE rule gave him: Don’t open the sack!
Naturally, there’s always someone who has to ruin it for everyone……
In this one short scene, we get a dose of long term vs. short term gratification, greed, distrust, and an inability to listen to someone of substance.

Where are we in The Odyssey, and how does it relate to today, and today's students, and YOU?
As described below, we have staffing issues. The people at the top, not the admins in the building, have caused all kinds of scheduling screw ups, bad feelings, and chaos because they didn’t plan ahead.
These are the people who tell you that they’re there “for the children”. What they really do is make $185,000 a year to send email, and make my 1st pd. class have 37 students in it.
All true.

Topics included this week:
Getting some of the old time basics instilled in the 9th grader of today.
Do what you say you are going to do.
Do it on time.
Do it with diligence and care.
What the 9th graders DON’T know (some of you will be appalled).
Learning about the Mystery Schools.
The transition to Egyptian Mythology.
The Hollywood writers strike began at 12:01AM on May 2nd. It’s still going on.
The writers / creators want things to not only go back to the way they were, but also get a bigger piece of the pie. They will get neither. Because Hollywood writes the same social justice laden stories repeatedly, why would anyone pay big money for a writer?
If you’re going to have a tired, predictable, woke piece of schlock come out of the studio; AI and 2 interns can do the trick - for a MUCH lower price.
Owen Benjamin mentioned this on his livestream, and he has a keen eye for such developments, having been near the top of the Hollywood Heap.
Now is a good time to write or produce your story. Write it down and let’s read it.
The Harvard 5 foot shelf will give you the intellectual firepower you didn't get in your modern schule.
Not only is the Harvard 5 Foot Shelf part of the American lexicon, it is the answer to your Educational Vitamin Deficiency. Looking at the intellectual underpinnings of yesteryear sends you on a journey that explains why our elders were not hoodwinked, bamboozled, or snookered so easily.
When you have a robust intellectual diet, taken in 15 minutes a day increments, you will be able to see through the endless fear and nonsense created by today’s mountebanks.

In this video we discuss the Russia v. Ukraine conflict. Russia produces goods, mines precious metals, coal, rare earth elements, and drills a ton of oil. Ukraine’s backers produce weapons, rhetoric, Federal Reserve Notes, debt, social media bantz, and various clownish Narrative Agendas.
It was a foregone conclusion that Russia was going to win this one, and the Corporate Press is already signaling the shift, so that Top Media can train the True Believers and NPC’s to repeat the ‘new story’ on social media.
The French think that everything is a conspiracy. As much as I endorse that level of conspiratorial thought, it’s heavy even for me. Americans have been trained, as one would train a seal, that nothing is a conspiracy - that everything is on the up and up. I think both approaches are wrong.
Once you realize that people in power will work together to further their own interests, the “conspiracy” world comes into a much better focus.
It also helps you to see the cloddish antics of the Top of the Pyramid much more easily, and it will erase the built in fear and despair.
Further analysis:
Operation Mockingbird.
Operation Northwoods.
Kennedy assassination CIA “conspiracy theorist” memo 1035-960.
None of the above are theories, conspiracy or otherwise. One can read all about them if one wants ones mind turned into gravy.
A few people have asked why I’m not teaching Summer School at MVHS. It’s a shift in strategy, as well as trying to practice what I preach. These are some of the life lesson / experiences I share with HS students Sometimes my secondary ventures fail, and I share those things too. Hopefully this summer’s choices will bear fruit.
I have a weekly column on my Substack page called "This Week in Schule". Why do I use the spelling 'schule' when it's apparent that I'm talking about 'school'?
I go into a short history of school, it's genesis, purpose, and aftermath in this short video. My site is here:

SAT / ACT exam prep, as well as basic literacy and grammar help is here at a great price:
This was an argumentative presentation for my Public Speaking class. The intent was to be argumentative and show how the use of Rhetoric, as well as Reason, could be used to sway opinion.
Tragedy struck our district last month.
A 16yr old girl was stabbed to death. The details are not murky, as the stabber was on social media, with the knife in full view, talking about what she was going to do. The event itself was filmed by countless cellphones. While I declined to watch the video, it would be easy to find someone with it and see this girl's life end on the street, in the middle of downtown.
What this short post and video are about is the way to fix things. The toolkit that the school leaders have to try to stop this kind of senseless violence is broken. Perhaps it was stolen. The deterrence that existed in 'the old days' is gone. Even after such a horrible event, the layering on of being nicer, being kinder, having more peace in the neighborhood, has already begun.
There isn't anything wrong with those things.
However, where is the tough love? Where is the deterrence? Where is the respect and its concomitant fear? They're nowhere to be found. This being NY, I suspect the somewhat feral killer will be in the System until she's 21, and then set free. I hope my cynicism is misplaced.
Discipline, especially harsh discipline, hurts feelings. It's seen these days as discriminatory, as well as all the other 'bad' things that are 'wrong' with today's world. I work in a neighborhood that is broken. The tools at leadership's disposal won't fix it.
Maybe that's the goal.
One of the current nonsense terms being thrown around by the Laptop Class is 'vaccine hesitant'. It's used as a pejorative. In this presentation, I explain that it's smart to be 'hesitant'. If you look at the record of the so-called authorities of public health, particularly when it comes to their past history and poor results, one can only be sure of one thing: they are wrong.
Some of the material on smallpox and its vax history came from here:

"During the thirty-six years since Dr. Fauci and his colleague, Dr. Robert Gallo, first claimed that HIV is the sole cause of AIDS, no one has been able to point to a study that demonstrates their hypothesis using accepted scientific proofs. … Even today, incoherence, knowledge gaps, contradictions, and inconsistencies continue to bedevil the official dogma." - RFK Jr.
They are following the same playbook from the 1980's. Having lived through the HIV/AIDS misinformation and disinformation craze, the pattern is the same. Get a trumped up virus, scare everyone beyond rational levels, then swoop in with the fix. The new BUG19 is replacing HIV, a virus that few seem to care about, think about, or, more importantly, no longer be afraid of.
In this video I ask who are Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, and you listening to? How in the world can two wealthy old musicians, with a ton of time on their hands and reputations for being 'anti establishment', come in with the clownish and cloddish worldview they have about Spotify and JRE? It's baffling.
36 year old reporter, Rafael Silva has a cardiac arrest on live television 3 days after his 3rd j@b and has 5 MORE CARDIAC ARRESTS on the way to the hospital.
Jason Whitlock doesn't make many mistakes. He's fearless when it comes to sports and social commentary. However, in his excellent conversation with TJ Moe, he's somewhat naive when he mistakes the lure of money for those at the Top of the Pyramid, when it is all about the Narrative.
They don't need the money. In their race to do as much damage to the West, it is the Narrative that matters, not the money.

The Julius Jones case running in tandem with the Rittenhouse case is fascinating because the type of person who would advocate for Jones sees the Rittenhouse case through a totally different lens. The frothing leftist / activist who goes bananas when confronted with a death penalty story sees the Rittenhouse case in the opposite way. Only a SJW mind worm can work this kind of magic into the human brain. The Hive Mind, combined with an uneducated populace addicted to corporate and social 'media', will permit such astronomical levels of ignorance. It's the only combination that works.
Owen Benjamin, and the people who sent this to him deserve a bit of eternal gratitude. This is simply glorious.
I just listened to David SIrota on Matt Taibbi's podcast. Some of the seeds for today's clownshow were quietly planted back during the 2007-2009 financial crisis. The Power Elite are slick, as they still manage to escape blame. These things I share with upperclassmen at work in ROOM 227.
I am now on a couple of platforms, teaching and tutoring. I work in a school that is rife with difficulties. Without putting too fine a point on it, I'm in the Bad Neighborhood School. However, my students have done quite well on exams, and in school, over the past 25 years. The competition is quite fierce these days for certain colleges. My tutoring and instruction have been helpful in getting many clients into schools like Tulane, SUNY Binghamton, Penn St., Harvard, Bates and Hamilton.
We will work together on exams, reading, writing, literacy, current affairs, history and economics. I'm a reader - you should be too.
