Its not that new really. Its the old Maff from the 90’s. 2+2 =5 sometimes. I dont think they even teach maff to kids anymore because its part of the male dominated white supremacist agenda.

The government does not calculate inflation based on what you spend your money on day by day, but a select group of products that you MAY purchase every year or few years. Everyone eats and everyone consumes energy every day, but “their prices are to volatile” to include them in the inflation calculator.

Just moar government “logic”.

With apologies to his original quote:

“There are three kinds of lies – lies, damn lies, and GOVERNMENT statistics.” – slight alteration from Disraeli (and others to whom it has also been attributed).

I always heard it was Mark Twain.

But George Carlin said it best:

There are three kinds of lies…

…lies, damned lies, and FUCKING BULLSHIT!!!

Governments only do three things – steal, murder, and lie.

plus start and sustain undeclared wars. Which I guess can be a form of murder?

Hey now, murder only when stealing and lying aren’t getting fabulous results for our owners.

I found Mike Pompeo’s admission of a taxpayer funded CIA that will “lie, cheat steal,” to be hilarious as he didn’t mention murder. Their gull-durn, go to, raison d’être.

Forked-tongue serpent constricts prey, then inflates its belly.

Also, contrary to previous belief, the snake does not cause suffocation by constricting the victim;  instead, a study of death caused by boa constrictors showed that constriction “shuts off” blood flow (and therefore oxygen) needed by vital organs such as the heart and brain, leading to unconsciousness within seconds and cardiac arrest shortly thereafter.[6] Further, multiple species of snakes have been shown to constrict with pressures higher than those shown to induce cardiac arrest.[7][8][9] In conjunction with observations of oral and nasal hemorrhaging in prey, constriction pressures are also thought to interfere with neural processing by forcing blood towards the brain.[7][8] In other words, constriction can work by different mechanisms at varying pressures. It likely interferes with breathing at low pressures,[10] can interrupt blood flow and overwhelm the prey’s usual blood pressure and circulation at moderate pressures,[11] and can interfere with neural processing and damage tissues at high pressures.[5][7][8]

Money is econo-me (you too) lifeblood. Becoming barter snakes, well, that just don’t scale.

Yeah at high pressure your brain will just explode and shoot out your ears and nose and your eyes pop out like cannon balls. I’ll spare you all the description of what happens below the waist.
