Memories, Mortality and MAGA Mysteries

In the wake of Wheatie Warrior’s passing, we renew the site mission by directly addressing “things unspoken” – now brought into the light.


In the immediate aftermath of the passing of our dear Wheatie, announced last Monday, I chose to deal with only the most substantive technicalities, in large part so that we could properly grieve, and not get caught up in mundane and mortal technicalities. Thus, many important questions for discussion were set aside.

I will deal with those items, and much more, in this post.


Mood Music

(From Wheatie’s post HERE):

(More mood music from Wheatie can be found at the end.)


Wheatie Warrior

Unlike the expected passings of some of our other comrades, Wheatie was, for lack of a better term, “missing in action”. There are reasons for this, and they bear explanation.

In giving you some explanations, I will be limiting what I tell you for TWO reasons.

ONE is out of respect for Wheatie’s desire for privacy. All authors and posters here can expect the same respect. If you want to consciously, knowingly, and with extreme intention, tell the world who you are, that is fine with me. Otherwise, I will assume you want some privacy, and by default will protect that privacy – even upon your illness, death, or simply leaving of this site – no matter under what circumstances. Maintaining your privacy does not include legitimate concerns of law enforcement, blah-blah-blah. Note, however, that I said “legitimate”.

TWO is in order to maintain site security. Keeping the enemy guessing is useful.

SO – why was Wheatie “missing in action”?

In contrast to most of the authors and commenters here, Wheatie was extremely careful to shield her identity. She did not wander far from this site. She didn’t post on “big tech” social media, other than Gab, and that was only after its security was proven, and after Gab was chosen as a secure posting back-up for this site.

Wheatie’s computer security was “minimally divulged” and “not negotiable”. Very often, with authors, I have to deal with security (or lack thereof) and/or permissions needed to work on posts or to upload information, the requirements of which are more rigorous than for merely commenting. Thus, I often learn a lot about an author’s practices of and attitudes toward computer security. They range, and that’s OK.

I will not get into Wheatie’s exact security measures, but they were substantial. Wheatie NEVER allowed convenience to trump security. She would NEVER lower security in order to comment on a site, create an account, watch a video, etc. Wheatie was a ROCK on the items needed to keep this site safe, and her identity private.

Indeed, the only people who appear to have ever gotten past her security, of which I am aware, was the Q team.

That is, in fact, why Wheatie was trusted by me, as she was trusted “in real life”. She NEVER let emotions get in the way of logical thinking, when it came to security. She was cool as a cucumber in tricky situations.

SO – without giving you the details, which would help our enemies, I can tell you that Wheatie’s own security measures likely prevented her from contacting us when she became ill, and until her death.

I want to repeat that. Wheatie was so mission-focused that she did not break her own security policy, or allow somebody else to break it, to let us know that she was in trouble.

Indeed, Wheatie tended to keep mum about most of her medical dealings, other than minor details about symptoms she was experiencing.

All of this combined to make it very difficult to find out what happened to Wheatie, when she went missing. We were very lucky, in fact, that she had divulged a few small things to me, ironically in the interest of assisting with site security. That was enough to help make a “positive ID”. Without that information, we might have never known for sure what happened to her.

Now – this would have all been a “bonk on my head” to start opening up a bit more with you – not just about my own situation, but about YOUR need to “make arrangements”, so that you, too, are not “missing in action” someday.

But there was another death that hit me particularly hard, which gave me a “double-bonk”.


My Friend, The Spy Popular Guy

There is nothing that will wake one up to one’s own mortality faster than a younger friend or relative dying. And that is exactly what happened to me.

At some point during the first half of this year – basically while Wheatie was MIA – I had another friend – a close friend – who “died suddenly and unexpectedly”. And “suspiciously”, I might add, in the words of the police.

Yeah, you are immediately thinking EXACTLY what I’m thinking.

IT WAS PROBABLY THE FUCKING JABS.

I do know that my friend HAD to have been jabbed, because it was a condition to go back to on-site work, after roughly two years of work-at-home. Indeed, he had JUST started going back to on-site work at that employer – which I can tell you for a FACT is “deep state” as all get-out.

That employer has a rather sneaky total vaccination requirement. Everybody has to go back to partial on-site work, and everybody who works on-site has to be jabbed. That kind of “two-step from hell” logic is par for the course with this DS outfit.

“Oh, no – we don’t require our employees to be vaccinated. Only if they are on site.”

“But you’re requiring everybody to work on site.”

“People who are required to work on-site are only required to work on site part of the time.”

“But on the days they are required to work on site, they’re required to be vaccinated – no?”

“You’ll have to talk to our Washington office about the exact specifics of the policy.”

OMG – the double-talk.

Now – as far as I know – the circumstances of death point to stroke or heart attack. The trouble is that, when I go into “I’m not a medical examiner, but I slept at a Holiday Inn Express” mode, I realize without too much deep thought, that it could also have been a “George Floyd” type of death – e.g., a fentanyl-induced heart stoppage, or something similar. AND – sadly – because this person had been a known toker and party guy in his youth, any murder with drugs will likely stick as a drug death, despite the fact that this guy NEVER did hard drugs or popped pills, to my knowledge. He had not even toked in decades, to my knowledge. But unfortunately for the truth, a past like his can be used quite easily as cover. Families and survivors will ASSIST in the cover-up of a drug death.

You may be asking “why would Wolf worry that his friend might have been murdered?” Hang in there – I’ll get to it.

My friend was in excellent health – mild high blood pressure being treated – but otherwise robust. Running, cycling, tennis, ping-pong, backpacking – you name it, he did it. Good weight, good habits, good lifestyle.

It was definitely NOT suicide. No note, no obvious means, and the most happy-go-lucky guy on Earth, with everything going right and looking forward to an excellent retirement.

He could have retired at any time, and THAT is where I’m guilty of not saving him from the jab.

You see, this guy – I am certain – was connected to some agency or entity – I just don’t know who. White hat – black hat – gray hat – sun visor – whatever – he was either working for somebody, informing for somebody, or (and this is quite certain) had friends who were “somebody”. It could have even been that he was “nobody” – but EVERYBODY was watching him because of his connections.

And it gets MORE complicated. My friend was everybody’s friend. “Everybody” included absolutely anybody and everybody who you might think was a foreign or domestic spy, a player, an asset, an informant, a defector, or even just a potential mass shooter. He just “accidentally” made it a point to know all the “interesting” people. It was uncanny.

I never knew where my friend took information, but it was clear he was scooping up knowledge for somebody – and also carrying out some kind of “orders of influence” – but it was impossible to separate the real person from his apparent “mission”. And on top of that, his life was full of contradictory cover. He could have been a very good spy – or just a nobody.

Trust me – he was not a nobody.

This guy was an exceptional person – as in an exceptionally good person. He wasn’t a church-goer – far from it – but he had been raised in a godly family, by a deeply religious mother, and it showed. Despite hanging out with some of the most anti-Christian people you can imagine, he showed all of the Christian virtues in spades, to an almost Biblical degree. There were times that I wondered if he wasn’t some kind of “undercover angel”, if you know what I’m saying.

And all of that ended – mysteriously – some time after he took the jab.

But here’s the thing.

One of the biggest reasons he took the jab is because I stopped giving him information.

I stopped giving him information because of January Sixth.

I stopped giving him information because I knew that my conversations with him were always recorded by somebody – probably FIB – and that whoever was behind him would pressure him into asking about January Sixth.

And it’s not just because I expected ANYTHING I said about January Sixth to be abused by the disgraceful DODGE and FIB.

You see, there are things about January Sixth – things I saw that day – that I have not told anybody. Things that I have not told you all. Things that have implications I don’t understand.

Things that are – as I like to call them – potential “nukes”.

For my own selfish battle reasons, I didn’t tell him the information that could have saved him, about the jabs.

What could I have done differently?

Were I a better and more courageous person, I would have taken his calls. I would have warned him about the jab. I would have – ultimately – talked him out of it. I would have told him everything I knew – all my scientific thinking about it. I would have let him follow along on my journey from “hopeful believer” in the jabs, to “red-pilled realist” warning people against them. I would have said “RETIRE NOW! Take your money and GTFO while you can. Don’t let that place kill you!”

And yet, all of that is still “love of this world”. What if HE did the right thing by just letting the jabs kill him, innocently? What if – weirdly – the disease and the jabs are God’s way of evacuating the righteous from this sinful world?

I will always be second-guessing what I did and didn’t do – just like the guy who I let the ChiComs destroy and drive nuts at “shallow state”, so that I wouldn’t spill my secret knowledge that his boss had been identified to me as a ChiCom asset.

THIS MORTAL WORLD IS ROUGH. Our actions suck. Our inactions suck. Our justifications stink in the nostrils of The Lord. Or reasoning is foul and filled with error.

So – where does that leave me? Other than two steps from hell?


Wolficarditis

I have generally been vague about my health issues or lack thereof, to create as much uncertainty as possible. The “event people” are constantly looking for plausible excuses for their little arranged deaths, so it’s generally advisable to keep as much medical privacy as possible.

The problem is, both openness and secrecy can be used by the other side. Sometimes, oddly, openness is more of a friend than secrecy. After Wheatie’s passing, and that of my friend, I’ve begun to see more virtue in a bit more openness.

So you’re going to get some.

I’m actually in pretty good health for my age, but after my initial bout of Wuhan-vintage COVID, in January 2020, my level of health became erratic.

What I did NOT tell people here, when I talked about “taking care of health matters”, is that I was in the hospital a few times.

Generally speaking, I don’t like to let people know that I’m in the hospital, if I can possibly avoid it. Worse still, I also found it easier to just keep the secret after getting out of the hospital. I don’t know if that was such a good idea now.

I definitely had a cardiac inflammation which I’m going to call “wolficarditis”, to retain just a wee bit of ambiguity on the diagnosis. We will never be exactly sure what caused it, but I can tell you that it was not the jabs, because I never took one.

There is some possibility that my wolficarditis was “smoldering” since either Wuhan (Jan 2020) or Delta (Nov 2021). Or, alternatively, it could have been caused by a later brief, mild, illness which was probably either omicron or flu (but which tested negative for COVID on the initial and only test).

The first time in the hospital, between Wuhan and Delta, was mysterious. It involved odd and extremely unusual high blood pressure, weak pulse, altered vision, and distorted time perception. Looking at it now, it may very well have been what our member Happy go lucky described to us recently – a lacunar stroke – or perhaps a similar type of intermittent blockage.

Anyway, ironically, I’m now doing exactly what I need to do for BOTH wolficarditis and wolfmoonar stroke. I feel great, and will continue to do so, until I don’t.

And when I don’t, I will make sure that there is a PLAN in place, to deal with the issue, and any potential aftermath.

So let’s start talking about plans.


Your Personal Plan

If you are happy with being able to come and go from this site unnoticed, to depart with quiet mystery from this site forevermore, when you depart this world, then we’re done here. You can move on to the next section of this post. You like your privacy, and…..

“Privacy is not a crime.”

People here have no need or right to know what happened to you, if you leave the site for any reason – temporarily or permanently.

That said, friendships develop, and we worry about our friends worrying. Many of us have been together on this site for approaching 4 years, and for many of us, 4 to 8 years on CTH before that. Think about it! That’s a long time. We have talked more to each other online, than with many “real” friends in “real life”!!!

Thus, if you’re one of those people who feels a need to “stay in touch” with the group here, in the event of hospitalization or death, then please read on.

When I talked about what happened to Wheatie, two people – cthulhu and Aubergine – immediately commented about making arrangements for the blog to be notified in the event of tragedy. Cthulhu estimated only a 30% chance of this “digital legacy” working – Aubergine estimated 15%. That will do in a pinch, but hopefully this post will give all of you some tips to raise the percentage.

First, let me explain something important. ANYBODY can post on this site, and I WILL see it. This means that you can always get word to the gang via me or one of the authors.

So – if you are in the hospital, and can get online somehow, or can instruct somebody else to get online, all they have to do is get on this site (theqtree.com) on somebody’s phone and leave a comment AS A GUEST on any post, and I WILL see it, and it will NOT publish. If you want it to be for my eyes only, then make the comment on any one of my posts, such as the Monday open thread – otherwise, depat, bakocarl, SteveinCO, or any other author of that post particular post will ALSO see the comment (in addition to me).

You don’t have to use your normal information on this strange device, although you can do it if you want to do it. Perhaps you’re using a trusted relative’s device. Perhaps you’re borrowing a phone from a nurse or hospital staff member. The point is, you can identify yourself in the message of the comment. If I need to, I’ll respond to you in the same article or daily open thread.

The reason this works is that ALL NEW COMMENTS from new users, as well as comments with a new origin or some other change (including spelling errors), will always go into moderation, where I will see them.

You are “never alone” from your friends from this site, if you can get on the internet somehow.

However, this only takes care of situations where YOU are able to communicate. What if you can’t? What if you are intubated in an ICU, in a coma, or even GONE?

For these situations, you need to leave instructions with SOMEBODY. Those instructions can be at any level of formality or legality. AGAIN, your friends and relatives can ALL comment on this site, and I will get their comment in moderation, if they have never commented here before. I can then make a judgement of what information should be passed on to the group, per the instructions passed on to me.

You are welcome to test this out on a friend or family member’s device. I will NOT approve the comment, but I will tell you if it worked. That way it will work exactly the same, the next time, in a real situation.

Some people leave a digital legacy – which is a new feature in the Apple world. This means that people can leave control of their devices to a spouse, friend, relative, or business partner.

Other people leave their usernames and passwords to their survivors. Still others end up having some computer or phone professional get into the devices – if it’s even possible.

Please feel free to discuss personal plans in the comments, or to “test out” your plan, if you’re unsure.

But now, we have to talk about something else.

We have to talk about my plan for the site.


The Group Plan

The advantage of having a single admin who is a “security hardcore” is that there are very few social hacks that can get around site security. The disadvantage is that this single point of failure means that the entire site may fail. And yet, THAT is part of the plan. Most members here are already active on several allied sites. We also have a Gab group where people can meet freely. We have plenty of back-up. This site can disappear tomorrow, and the GROUP survives.

The value of our site is not in the archival content, as much as it is in the organic continuity of research and understanding. The primary strength of the site is in our evolving conversation and thoughts, which include many alternative viewpoints and beliefs.

Our strength is in our community, not in this site per se.

Thus, I always regard our community as its own failsafe plan. If something happens to me, and/or to this site, you all will figure out what to do.

Indeed, some of us made continuity plans in the very beginning of the site. The strategy was somewhat Alexandrian. By many of us secretly preparing to lead future alternative sites, the regime would have to play whack-a-mole to stop us.

And look at us now. Look how many healthy, viable, and active or potentially active blogs and discussion sites were created by members here.

THAT is our true safety net. This site can literally VANISH OVERNIGHT, and yet the GROUP lives on.

Now, since none of you noticed my being in the hospital, any of the times it happened, it would seem that my plan for such circumstances is both working and well-tested.

The problem is, that if I die, there need to be further arrangements. I will be shoring up the contingency plans for my “sudden departure” during the next few months. My main concern is preservation of the contents on the internet. It is likely that I can leave a small trust to support the site for a number of months or years, or at least long enough to copy the contents, if desired. The problem is then handing over administration. That gets tricky, and I need to consider the options. That will not be arranged in the open.

Right now, the cost of the site is roughly $1500 a year, but it will likely rise rapidly under Bidenomics. For other reasons, however, we may also want to move the site to a new host, depending upon what happens with our nutty regime trying to start World War III. In that event, the cost may increase or decrease. We have already been hit by a 10% energy cost increase. Don’t ask about the exact circumstances – just know that Biden is why.

Therefore, in the event of my demise, it may be best to “start over” on a free site somewhere, with a new admin, and then re-grow from that colonization.

We’ll see. I will say this. I’m not worried.


In God We Trust

You can worry about your legacy here – or you can forget about it. Ultimately, God is in control, and will correct your errors. Trusting in God will see you through.

The world to worry about is not this one – it is the spiritual world that only vaguely but beautifully intersects our own world, through us. Stand up for Truth, and the Spirit of Truth which defends Truth. Defend the Kingdom of Heaven, and its footprint in this world.

Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust. But from that fire, arises a light that pleases The Lord. Help to make it so.

Dear KMAG: 20220627 Joe Biden Didn’t Win ❀ Open Topic / In Memory of Wheatietoo

Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President:

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.


This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And while this is another Monday……

…..and while we WILL get through it……

….. we have some very sad news about our Wheatie Warrior.

…..and thus this will be a very special Monday Open Thread, honoring our friend, fellow Ultra-MAGA Deplorable, and loyal Q Treeper, Miss Wheatie.

We will dispense with the boilerplate, so that we may all remember and honor our fallen sister in arms, Wheatietoo.

OK – maybe just her three rules, from her very first open thread.

Wheatie’s Rules:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

Mood Music

The Sad News

It is my sad duty to inform my fellow patriots that it is fairly certain Miss Wheatie left us earlier this spring. In respect of Wheatie’s deep love of privacy, I will not give all the details of my investigation, but I will try to give you enough information that you can be certain she is in a better place now.

https://youtu.be/7dbwwu7ydhM

What Happened

Wheatie’s last comments here were on Christmas Eve of 2021. You may recall that we were temporarily locked out of the site, but got back in soon, after regrouping on the backup sites, and thanks to some help from our hosting company.

Wheatie “liked” a few posts during the next few days after Christmas, but did not comment. Her last “like” was on the December 29 open thread, just 4 days after Christmas.

Wheatie’s last comment on Gab was on 12/20, re-posting this meme:

Wheatie had been having difficulty posting during the fall, due to health reasons, and was having to limit computer screen time for the sake of her eyes. When I gave her the option to be relieved of the Monday thread, she took it without hesitation. Unfortunately, things did not improve.

In early December, after my wife and I recovered from Delta, which we caught around Thanksgiving, I reached out to Wheatie on Gab, because I hadn’t seen her comment in a while. She responded, telling me that she had spent a week in what seemed like a long asthma attack, and which she thought might be some kind of bad bout of allergies.

The next time I reached out to her, in early spring – nothing.

Since then, I have tried many methods of contacting her, with absolutely no luck.

Finally, I decided to look for evidence that Wheatie might have passed away. Unfortunately, that led almost immediately to an obituary notice which matched absolutely everything I knew about Wheatie. And I mean everything. Things that nobody else here knows.

At that point, I decided to enlist the aid of Aubergine, who has done professional genealogy work. Her investigation made it even more clear that we had found our Wheatie. We both agreed that it was time to tell everybody, so that people could offer prayers and honor our fellow Q Treeper. But at the same time, we felt it necessary to maintain the secrecy of Wheatie’s identity, which she had worked very, very hard to maintain.

The Real Wheatie

Wheatie lived a long, blessed, and wonderful life. Be assured of that. She did fascinating things, enjoyed the love of family, and stood up for principles in a way which profoundly influenced many lives, including my own. She made a difference.

Wheatietoo was one of the first people to join this site, and helped to turn it from a mere blog, into a true meeting-place for patriots and lovers of freedom. Many of us knew her from long before, however, on Sundance’s site, or in some cases, on Ace of Spades HQ, where she had been a regular.

Among many other things, Wheatie was responsible for this site’s long-running James Coburn meme, in which I, too, took great pleasure.

She was also responsible for the “tree and treehouse” memes, which were a comfort for all of us in the rough early days of this site.

Perhaps the most significant thing that Wheatie did, was to refuse to accept the stolen election, or the illegitimate Biden presidency. You can even see it in the title of this thread – “Joe Biden didn’t win.”

Wheatietoo’s adamant refusal to accept the lie, echoed and cascaded through this site, and far beyond. I still remember that point, when I told myself that I would become her “first follower” as far as refusing to accept EVEN THE IDEA that Joe Biden had won the election. I told her – don’t stop saying this, because if she didn’t stop – I wouldn’t stop, either.

I truly believe that Miss Wheatie now rests in peace, knowing that we will carry on the fight.

❀ JOE BIDEN DIDN’T WIN ❀

Likewise, Wheatie always felt that Vladimir Putin was a patriotic nationalist, much like American patriots, and that conflict with Russia is neither inevitable nor necessary. Thus, in lieu of flowers, may I suggest remembering “what would Wheatie say?”, the next time some neocon tries to whip up war hysteria, especially with Russia.

There is a Baha’i saying that I like, to the effect that “when a thought of war comes, oppose it with a stronger thought of peace.” I find this idea useful – so try thinking of Wheatie when the next warmonger starts rattling the saber within earshot. Wheatie will set them straight!

Thoughts and Prayers

Please feel free to share your reminiscences about Wheatietoo in the comments. Your prayers are most welcome, too!

Thank you all for your good thoughts and kindnesses toward Miss Wheatie while she was here with us. Your prayers and well-wishes at this time and in the future will be just as effective, I am certain.

Wheatie’s First Open Thread, Featuring Her 3 Rules!


Some of Wheatie Warrior’s favorite modern “epic movie music”!

Johannes Bornlöf, ‘Army of Angels’:

From Wheatie’s classic Monday post here:

https://www.theqtree.com/2020/09/27/dear-kmag-20200828-open-thread/


“The wind blows where it wishes. You hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”

“Those who choose to humble themselves before Truth, no matter how astonishing, beautiful, or painful, are forever united by it.”

-Wolf


PS – If I may ask a favor, please keep any potentially doxxing information or discussion about Miss Wheatie (meaning things she did not tell us publicly, that could identify her) in private channels, preferably DMs and PMs, such as Gab’s end-to-end encrypted chat service. Thank you!

Dear KMAG: 20220620 Joe Biden Didn’t Win ❀ Open Topic

Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President:

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.


This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And indeed, it’s Monday…again.

But we WILL get through it!

…and we will have fun doing it, too!


The Rules

Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.

The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.

Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.

Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.

SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]

We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.

Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.

In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.

We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).

We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.

If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.

We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.

In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”


A Moment of Prayer

Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.

Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.

You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.


Call To Battle

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.


Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Day Year Week:

Not counting Obama himself, Obama’s top embeds in the Biden administration roughly comprise the actual ruling dodecarchy, still serving Obama’s masters.

SPECIAL SECTION: Message For Our “Friends” In The Middle Kingdom

I normally save this for near the end, but…basically…up your shit-kicking barbarian asses. Yes, barbarian! It took a bunch of sailors in Western Asia to invent a real alphabet instead of badly drawn cartoons to write with. So much for your “civilization.”

Yeah, the WORLD noticed you had to borrow the Latin alphabet to make Pinyin. Like with every other idea you had to steal from us “Foreign Devils” since you rammed your heads up your asses five centuries ago, you sure managed to bastardize it badly in the process.

Have you stopped eating bats yet? Are you shit-kickers still sleeping with farm animals?

Or maybe even just had the slightest inkling of treating lives as something you don’t just casually dispose of?

中国是个混蛋 !!!
Zhōngguò shì gè hùndàn !!!
China is asshoe !!!

And here’s my response to barbarian “asshoes” like you:

OK, with that rant out of my system…

Biden Gives Us Too Much Credit

…we can move on to the next one.

Apparently Biden (or his puppeteer) has decided we’re to blame for all of the fail in the United States today.

Sorry to disappoint you Joe (or whoever), but you managed to do that all on your own; not only that, you wouldn’t let us NOT give you the chance because you insisted on cheating your way into power.

Yep, you-all are incompetent, and so proud of it you expect our applause for your sincerity. Fuck that!!

It wouldn’t be so bad, but you insist that everyone else have to share in your misery. Nope, can’t have anyone get out from under it. Somehow your grand vision only works if every single other person on earth is forced to go along. So much as ONE PERSON not going along is enough to make it all fail, apparently.

In engineering school we’re taught that a design that has seven to eight billion single points of failure…sucks.

Actually, we weren’t taught that. Because it would never have occurred to the professors to use such a ridiculous example.

Justice Must Be Done.

The prior election must be acknowledged as fraudulent, and steps must be taken to prosecute the fraudsters and restore integrity to the system.

Nothing else matters at this point. Talking about trying again in 2022 or 2024 is hopeless otherwise. Which is not to say one must never talk about this, but rather that one must account for this in ones planning; if fixing the fraud is not part of the plan, you have no plan.

Kamala Harris has a new nickname since she finally went west from DC to El Paso Texas: Westward Hoe.

OK now for the fine print.

This is the WQTH Daily Thread. You know the drill. There’s no Poltical correctness, but civility is a requirement. There are Important Guidelines,  here, with an addendum on 20191110.

We have a new board – called The U Tree – where people can take each other to the woodshed without fear of censorship or moderation.

And remember Wheatie’s Rules:

1. No food fights
2. No running with scissors.
3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
4. Zeroth rule of gun safety: Don’t let the government get your guns.
5. Rule one of gun safety: The gun is always loaded.
5a. If you actually want the gun to be loaded, like because you’re checking out a bump in the night, then it’s empty.
6. Rule two of gun safety: Never point the gun at anything you’re not willing to destroy.
7. Rule three: Keep your finger off the trigger until ready to fire.
8. Rule the fourth: Be sure of your target and what is behind it.

(Hmm a few extras seem to have crept in.)

Spot Prices

All prices are Kitco Ask, 3PM MT Friday (at that time the markets close for the weekend).

Last week:

Gold $1,852.30
Silver $22.00
Platinum $1022.00
Palladium $2,074.00
Rhodium $15,500.00

So here it is, Friday, 3PM MT after markets closed and we see:

Gold $1,873.20
Silver $22.00
Platinum $982.00
Palladium $2,020.00
Rhodium $14,900.00

All over the map here. Gold up, silver is exactly where it was (though I am sure it moved around a bit over the week), all of the PGMs down. That says to me the industrial users are demanding less, and gold is serving as a safe haven.

But that interpretation is worth exactly what you just paid for it.

JWST Update

JWST instrument commissioning proceeds apace.

This morning, I saw they had two of the seventeen instrument modes checked off. It’s now 3PM mountain time…and they have four!

That tells me they’re working a bunch of them (maybe even all of them) at the same time.

The JWST blog is busy, too. As some here noted, they’ve already dealt with a micrometeor strike. They expected these and designed with that in mind. (Though if a meteor isn’t so “micro-” there could be problems. However, the bigger they are the less likely they are.)

https://blogs.nasa.gov/webb/2022/06/08/webb-engineered-to-endure-micrometeoroid-impacts/

Also they’ve posted about the near infrared imager and slitless spectrometer (NIRISS), one of the four instruments on JWST (there’s a fifth, but it’s used to keep track of the JWST itself). They can do spectroscopy on one object, or everything in the field of view at once, interfermetry (getting increased resolution at the cost of some light), and just plain old imaging to back up and/or supplement NIRCam.

https://blogs.nasa.gov/webb/2022/06/03/the-modes-of-webbs-niriss/

If I were to try to overstate how important spectroscopy is to astronomy, I’d fail. It’s thanks to spectroscopy that we can tell radial velocity (how fast a star is moving towards or away from us), how fast something is rotating, what it is made of, and (with a lot of sophisticated processing) the mass and period of many exoplanets and even what the atmosphere of an exoplanet might contain (provided in the latter case we are in the exoplanet’s orbital plane), all without leaving the comfort of our home planetary system (and let’s face it, we still haven’t much choice there). The overwhelming majority of what we know about “out there” is thanks to spectroscopy. And it was key in discovering at least a dozen chemical elements, including one that was discovered in the sun before it was discovered here (I’ve told that story–hint/reminder, it’s the chemical element named after the sun).

You may have wondered how they’re going to decide who gets to use JWST. After all there are more astronomers than there are James Webb Space Telescopes. And, it turns out, it’s a bureaucratic process.

https://blogs.nasa.gov/webb/2022/06/09/scheduling-webbs-science/

I know that some of the available (24/7 minus takedowns for maintenance, usually adjusting mirror secoment alignments) time is held in reserve, at the discretion of the manager of the JWST. That’s quite a privilege, but other than his personal research, he’ll be expected to use it to study things that go kaboom or comets, especially comets about to hit things. In other words, if a supernova were to go off near by (a totally unanticipatable event), it gets priority over the guy who wants an image of NGC-1234…and that guy would probably even agree with the decision; we haven’t had a really gonzo supernova since before Galileo’s telescope. (The fact that the one back in 1987 was visible even though it was a hundred thousand light years away tells you something about how bright a star like Betelgeuse would be if it went kaboom! since Betelgeuse is a couple of hundred times closer. Yes, it would be visible in daylight.)

Meanwhile, we wait for the awesome.

An Interesting Point Made Here

Yesterday cthulhu linked to this:

https://townhall.com/columnists/kurtschlichter/2022/06/09/let-the-leftists-beat-each-other-up-n2608458

(Very first post for Friday.)

And the first part of that was worth a read:

When we conservatives decline to volunteer as a dish in the progressive buffet, the leftists have no choice but to feed upon each other. We will see more of it as conservatives wake up and smell the kombucha – leftists only win when they can bully and intimidate, and if we choose not to let them do that to us, then it’s not as if they will give up their go-to move. No, they will turn on each other, and we will gobble up the Orville Redenbacher as they fight to the death for our amusement.

And we are amused.

Donald Trump was the first guy to push back, really push back, but it was not simply his pugnacious nature and cunning ability with mean tweets that made him important. It was his moral position. At some level, for some reason, so many establishment Republicans had approached these bad faith actors as legitimate critics who were at best misguided and who might actually have a germ of a point within their critiques. Trump, however – having been among them for decades and understanding exactly who they are – read them correctly. He considered them garbage. 

It was not so much that Trump fought back, it was that he made it clear that the leftists are scum. And because he did not credit them with any moral stature, their slings and arrows bounced off his armor. Of course, Ron DeSantis has taken the same tack with them, refusing to credit them with any kind of merit. And that deprives them of their most powerful weapon – their victims’ complicity.

The thing about words is that they can only hurt you if you let them. At one point, “racist” and “sexist” and all the other lies might have stung. Now, we consider them a punchline and an outright slander. We laugh at them.

Kurt Schlichter on TownHall

This is precisely what Ayn Rand called “the sanction of the victim.” It comes about when, deep down, you cede moral authority to your oppressors. Rand would, in particular, highlight the effects of an altruistic world view in this connection, i.e., where your worth is measured by how much self sacrifice you are willing to do. If you can be guilt-tripped for not being willing to give up something you value, to help out a bum on the street, they’ve got you.

This sort of thing is, I believe, why many RINOs cave regularly. They believe that the Left has a bunch of impractical ideals, and they think of themselves as practical people who have to rein those impractical people in. But the problem is, they think of the left’s ideals as ideals that can’t be achieved practically–which means they say to themselves, “Well it’s nice in theory.” So they can be pressured to help try. After all, it would be nice if real communism could work, so why not get as close to it as is practical?

But in doing this they cede the moral high ground to the Left. Which is why RINOs are inveterate invertebrates.

Rand, of course, thought altruism (which she considered sacrificing something of greater value for something of lesser value, about which more below) was a crock, so she was immune to that.

But even those immune to altruistic appeals might not be immune to accusations of “sexism” or “racism” and modern Leftism isn’t so much about Marxism of the “workers own the means of production” as it is about race and sex inequality “built in” to the culture. (Though the former is supposed to be a means to correct the latter…or maybe the latter is the excuse to implement the former…ah, well, who cares which one it is?) So they pull guilt trips that can only work if you cede them the high ground. If you do that, you will feel you deserve what they do to you.

That’s a major philosophical thread underlying the entire novel Atlas Shrugged.

(By the way in her non-fiction writing Ayn Rand was explicit that she was not talking about “sacrificing” to put your kids through college or things like that–you are trading a lesser value (that fancy car you couldn’t buy) for something of greater value (your children’s futures. She would not consider that an actual sacrifice but rather a high price paid for something of great value. A sacrifice is giving up something more valuable to you, in exchange for something less valuable. With that in mind, Ayn Rand opposed sacrifices in life, often gotten from people through guilt trips.)

And now, thanks in part to the Left going over the top with accusations of “racism” and in part to Trump showing them to be paper tigers, the Left is losing their power…and they’re losing their shit over that.

Quarters

The subject of the new quarters came up a couple of days ago, and I thought I’d bring in a historical perspective.

It’s hard to imagine today, but in the early days quarters weren’t that popular a denomination. Since, back then, the mint made coins to order by anyone who brought silver or gold in, that meant if people didn’t specifically ask for it, they didn’t make it. And most people bringing in a bunch of silver would want it done as dollars or half dollars.

But, nevertheless they did make a few thousand of them in 1796.

Note there’s no denomination on the coin. You were expected to know what it was by its size. And the other silver coins had the same design themes on them.

They made a few more quarters in the 1800s (i.e., 180x, not the 19th century) with a different eagle (and now, the denomination is given as 25 C though it looks like an afterthought):

And then in 1807 or so they changed designs completely.

Collectors refer to the prior designs as “Draped Bust/Small Eagle” and “Draped Bust/Large Eagle” and this design is the “Capped Bust” because Liberty is wearing a cap. This ran until mid 1838, though the recently-founded New Orleans mint adopted it a couple years later. Again, all silver denominations basically used the same theme, the coins looked like each other except for size and the written denomination (half dimes, dimes, quarters, and halves–there were no capped bust dollars at all). [Yes, half dimes…silver coins half the size of a dime. The nickel we know and love didn’t exist until 1866.]

Again, there’d be multi-year gaps where no one ordered quarters from the mint.

Next was the “Liberty Seated” series which ran until 1891, i.e., it lasted longer than the mint had been in existence when it was adopted. Again, all of the silver coins basically looked the same. We had silver dollars again. But the half-dime and dime were a little different, instead of an eagle they had a wreath on the reverse. So we finally started to see a breaking up of the monolithic one-design-for-all-denominations rule.

There was one major change to this in 1866 for the quarter, half dollar and dollar, because “In God We Trust” was added, on a ribbon over the eagle’s head and wings.

A multimillionaire might decide it would be fun to get one of each date and mintmark, in uncirculated condition…that’s the typical collecting type, albeit with a budget the typical collector doesn’t have (most collectors don’t even delve into Liberty Seated and earlier coinage at all; if you collect by type–one of each design type rather than one of each year and mint mark–you have a considerable advantage; you need six or eight coins instead of over a hundred).

That multimillionaire will never succeed if he undertakes that quest. Many dates, especially from the San Francisco mint, are unknown in uncirculated condition; i.e., absent someone opening a box in an old attic somewhere and making a discovery, there aren’t any. Period. Again, quarters were not that popular, and the mint didn’t make many. (And the Civil War was not good for specie coinage on top of that.)

The mint got bored with the Liberty Seated coinage and decided to replace it starting in 1892. We were now down to four silver denominations, the dime, quarter, and half dollar, plus two distinct types of silver dollars. The silver dollars had their own designs, now, but the dime, quarter and half dollar still had liberty seated on the obverse and an eagle (or wreath) on the reverse. Anyhow, the replacement quarter was…

And collectors are almost unanimous in finding this design to be incredibly blah. (What’s with Liberty’s neck?) This design had one big advantage though, and that is that it struck up well, with all the detail, and as it wore down, it was still readily recognizable. That was the criteria Charles Barber was working from, and he succeeded.

Why am I showing you all of this? Because people were talking about the artistry and symbolism of the new quarters. So the design has been my focus so far.

In the 1900s…as in 190x, not 19xx..none other than President Theodore Roosevelt decided our coins were artistically atrocious. Not just silver but also the coppers, nickels, and gold pieces. (Probably the only then-current design liked a lot today is the Indian head cent.) So he embarked on a crusade to change the designs. There was, at the time, a law against changing the designs more than once every twenty five years, but the then-current gold designs had been around since 1839 or 1849 depending on the denomination, so those could be done right now. Roosevelt brought well-known sculptors famous for their work into the project, and this was in the days before modern “art.” (You can look those up: Indian head quarter eagle, half eagle, eagle, and St. Gaudens double eagle, I want to focus on quarters).

But the effort to change our coinage actually did outlive Teddy Roosevelt. In 1916, under Woodrow Never-to-be-Sufficiently-Damned Wilson, the silver was addressed (and again, there was no dollar being produced at all). And this time the designs were completely different for each denomination.

So I present you the “Standing Liberty Quarter.”

Only a few were made at the tail end of 1916 and command a huge premium today, but more were made in 1917 and then there was a design change.

The shield looks different, the eagle is higher up, the stars on the reverse are rearranged…and yeah, Liberty is now overdressed.

[The modern “old wives’ tale” is that there was a huge hue and cry over the bare breast and that’s why they changed the design, but in fact little evidence of such can be found in contemporary newspapers. And John Ashcroft wasn’t even alive then.]

These coins are much, much more artistic than the Barber series, but the mint hated them. The design was nearly impossible to strike up. Oftentimes detail in Liberty’s head was just not there, and so today, if you’re shopping for one of these, an “FH” or “Full Head” designation can bring a premium. But even on “Full Head” coins, many of the rivets on the shield (and the US shield on the shield) can be soft or nonexistent.

It was difficult to mint these well in the sorts of quantities the mint was now being called upon to produce. (The “Mercury” dime and walking liberty half dollar also introduced in 1916 had similar issues…also worth looking up.)

Charles Barber was stung that his design had been dropped after 24 years (with a little creative interpretation of the exact text of the 25 year rule), and considered these designs failures–and by his criteria, as a man charged with producing designs that would strike up and wear well, he was actually right.

Washington’s 200th birthday was fast approaching, and Congress passed a bill to put Washington on the quarter in 1932. The last standing liberty quarter was made in 1930 (none dated 1931).

So now, who gets to sculpt George Washington?

The Commission on Fine Arts had hired Laura Gardin Fraser to sculpt a commemorative medal, and they suggested the same bust be used on the quarter. But instead Treasury Secretary Andrew W. Mellon chose the James Flanagan portrayal, which in turn was based on a sculpted bust by Jean-Antoine Houdon made in 1786–i.e., a sculpture made using Washington himself as a model.

A plaster copy of Houdon’s bust of Washington

So the Flanagan portrayal should be very, very close to an actual image of Washington. (It can be hard to nail down a good image of someone who lived before photography.) Anyhow, here it is:

This of course is what we’re used to. But please note, there is actual detail in Washington’s hair. By the 1960s and 1970s the master hub from which the dies are made had worn smooth from repeated use and Washington’s hair began to look like a skullcap.

A touched up version of this began to be used sometime in the 1990s, but they overdid it and it looked like Washington’s hair was made of spaghetti.

Honestly, from 1994 they couldn’t find a coin that wasn’t heavily dinged up around George’s mouth?

It only got worse in 1999. The image was shrunk slightly to make room for legends brought from the reverse for the state quarters series.

And the spaghetti looks even worse. For that matter so do the dings on the coin.

And the spaghetti hair looks even worse. (BTW, here he faces away from “In God We Trust.” This is nothing new; it has been like that since 1999.)

Still, it looks very much like before. Flanagan might not have liked what was done to his portrait, but at least it was recognizable as an attempt at his portrait.

The state quarters series, and the subsequent national seashore series ended, finally in 2021, early in the year, and the mint reverted to the 1990s full-size, spaghetti hair portrait, for just that one year (with IGWT on the left again below Washington’s chin).

On the reverse is this image of Washington’s crossing of the Delaware. (I couldn’t find a decent sharp image of the obverse of this coin; the focus was on the new reverse.)

But this was just a gap filler. We’re on to a new program for quarters, one recognizing women…and OBTW it’s quota time. One White, one “Native American,” one Black, one Asian, one Hispanic. (And we get to do this for three more years after this one. Oh joy. Oh rupture.)

(The feminazis must be downright orgasmic over the Amerind honoree, Wilma Mankiller.)

And it being women…well, it has been alleged that Mellon made his decision for the Flanagan portrait over the Fraser portrait on purely sexist grounds, and so, where better than on quarters designed to honor women should one rectify such an injustice? So Fraser’s portrait, used once on a $5 gold commemorative in 1999 (shown below), got brought back.

Well, Mellon’s choice might have been due to sexism, or it might have been that he thought this was butt ugly by comparison. Judging from the commentary here earlier this week, I’ll go with butt ugly.

On the other hand, a “Fine Arts Commission” did recommend this over the Flanagan design. So I’ll allow that perhaps sincere people could differ over which one is better.

Perhaps. 🙂

Now I’m going to come to Fraser’s defense, a bit. She and her husband, James Earle Fraser, were “real” sculptors too, just as St. Gaudens, Bela Lyon Pratt, Adolph Weinman, Victor D. Brenner, and Hermon Atkins MacNeil were (these people had all done coin designs in the early 20th century). In fact James Fraser did the Indian Head (or “Buffalo”) nickel. Laura did one of the two sides of the Oregon Trail Memorial half dollar (struck intermittently between 1926 and 1939):

She and her husband both liked to use American Indian subjects in their sculpture, and I realized earlier this week that might be why Washington looks very “Indian” in her portrayal.

(By the way the other side of that coin was done by James:)

The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).

We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.

We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.

In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”


A Moment of Prayer

Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.

Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.

You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.


Call To Battle

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.


Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Day Year Week:

Used in a sentence:

Dear KMAG: 20220523 Joe Biden Didn’t Win ❀ Open Topic

Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President:

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.


This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And indeed, it’s Monday…again.

But we WILL get through it!

…and we will have fun doing it, too!


The Rules

Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.

The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.

Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.

Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.

SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]

We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.

Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.

In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.

We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”.
