A cheeky romp through pungent fields of self important bullshit.
Diagnosis: It’s a bargain bin replacement for religion.

Little Care (Poem)
Trading tales
Out there
Where all else fails
Little care
She rests her head
On a shoulder
That’s long dead
Yeah she’s growing older
But still in circles
She wheels
The wreck through cycles
Bursts seals dance jigs and reels
Golden red
Sweet neck
Empty head
All hands on deck
To little care
Seaworthy
She’ll just stare
Too wordy
But just you wait
We’ll get there
Better then, yea better late
Silk hair
Paintbrush
Sketch a future
In tears and smiles
My suture
My little care whiles
My time away
Till
Skeletal
I’ve nothing to say
Be a scaffold
For burst roses
A tale that’s told
Forever
Of little care
That’ll never never
She’ll l just stare
Towards the horizon
My all my why
That the future lies on
Yea we’ll never die

TFS 23 – Coronavirus Lesion Study in Globalist Economics, Manufacturing, and Trans Frogs
Lesion studies are when you look at a damaged bit of tissue and match it to an impaired capacity to figure out its function, etc. Right now the economy is damaged by the Coronavirus. Something that let’s us see what the Fed really does, and diagnose the disease of relying on others for our manufacturing needs.
We need to bring manufacturing back so we can solve the hipster epidemic by putting them to work.
Atrazine is real. And it’s pretty much as crazy as Alex Jones.

Great Heart (Poem)
If you help somebody
It’s an accident
Cause the world is bloody
Never learn from precedent
It pulses and beats
In hollers and heats
Life flows down streets
Aorta greets
Whatever passes ‘long
Takes it through
Circulation washes right or wrong
You were there just there
And so was the moment
Don’t you know where
You paid the rent
You want the credit
That you’re living on
Always try to edit
Just to get along
So what’s it now
When the coronary
Shows we’ve nothing to sow
Kills your last canary
It’s an accident
Yea, you helped somebody
To see the sense in spent
yea it was dirty bloody
Great heart
You
Yea
You
And
That’s a start

TFS 22 – Coronavirus, Kvass, and Carolina Living
Note (I repeated a factoid from another YouTuber (CoffeeTalk) “bird flu has 98% or so survival rate) I was unable to confirm this via Google. All I got was survival rate of the virus strains in Korea not of people. I did find a sixty percent mortality rate. That being said I don’t think he’s entirely off the mark because the CDC said the following:
While the risk from Asian H5N1 is low to most people, CDC recommends general precautions.
Sporadic human infections with Asian H5N1 virus have occurred in other countries, primarily in Asia and Africa. Most human infections with Asian H5N1 viruses in other countries have occurred after prolonged and close contact with infected sick or dead birds.
No animal or human infections with Asian H5N1 virus have occurred in the United States.
Video is about Coronavirus news, media coverage, Kvass and beer, Russian memories, and the economy.
(I’m aware the audio doesn’t match. Sorry, I had no time to fix it.)

TFS 21 – Coronavirus in Romania, Criticizing the Alt Media, and More
I discuss recent developments in the spread of the Coronavirus via a critique of alt-media commentary. The commentator in question is a Romanian citizen who goes by the internet name “Vee.”
Background Info:
(Note: Italy is mentioned because it is experiencing an outbreak and many Romanians travel between Italy and Romania.)
Recent Developments in Coronavirus News:
Italy has only a moderate level of air traffic with China – approximately comparable to Russia and France, lower than Germany and the UK, fivefold lower than the US.
Italy was the only country in Europe to ban all direct flights from China on January 31. (This appears to have actually no less hard a response than Russia’s ban on Chinese citizens on February 20, which however excluded transit and business visitors).
Belying stereotypes, the Italian epidemiological response has been highly competent (if by unexacting global standards), with most or all people displaying flu-like symptoms apparently being tested.

Why Corona Is Worying:
Most cases are asymptomatic; in cases where symptoms do appear, which can happen as much as 2 weeks after infection, they are easily confounded with the flu. From the earlier days, it has been estimated – and repeatedly confirmed – that COVID-19 has only a 10% detection rate (BTW, Davide Piffer estimates it at 18%). Meanwhile, carriers need not be symptomatic to transmit. At such early stages, you are only going to identify these clusters by intensive testing, which as I understand nobody apart from Italy and South Korea is really doing yet. One might make a comparison to a tsunami. Undetectable when it’s out in the deep ocean, unless you’re specifically looking for it… until it comes to shore and crashes down on local healthcare systems.
