Globalized Supply Chain Complexity and Other Variables

Every product you buy has multiple chains of supply, and sub-chains that determine how long it takes for the consumer at the end of the line receives the merchandise he desires. Like, everyone knows that, right? It’s not rocket science that every iPhone is constructed in China with components from over 80 countries, and if anywhere down that multi-layered line something goes wrong, it’s either source the component from somewhere else at huge cost and logistics, or go tits up.

It’s not only the production line that has to think of supply chains but the services that supply the goods in the first place, right along to the energy and utility companies who provide energy for all this to take place, each component in the line needs its own supply chains, and naturally we see that there will be problems if only a single component goes down. Much like a domino effect, the disruption to the system is immense. To save space, some companies even plan deliveries for their production lines at specific times in the production of whatever they are manufacturing. Well, due to disruptions in the supply chains, what happens if that certain component you need to manufacture the product does not turn up? The whole factory is on stand-by.

The empty shelves you may see in your supermarkets could be down to panic buying but also from supply chain problems, and due to the global pandemic, this is why we have empty shelves and containers full of product at the ports.

Each level of the supply chain for any given product or utility has multiple supply chains, all of these supply chains branching out from within supply chains, onto massive chains of supply chains that interlock at certain points, meandering through the system like bronchial passages, or arteries through the body. Blockages in arteries are never a good thing, they could lead to death, as is the case with blockages of supply chains.

This is the ultimate weakness of globalization, especially with the financial markets, where one singular economic event in one part of the world can cause massive tremors to the entire market. From the farmers to the supermarkets, to the commodities markets, the repercussions of supply line mishaps can affect multiple variables simultaneously causing effects to ripple outwards, even affecting the entire system if it is allowed to get worse.

Inflation, hyperinflation and the engineered stock market through the printing of money is a disease that now threatens to engulf the entire economic system built on debt to collapse eventually. How long can the respective treasury departments kick their cans down the road?

The future under this broken fiat currency system is one of hyperinflation, stagflation, and dragflation. There will be no end to the destruction, simply because the people who are running the system are now running out of ideas on how to avert the inevitable. Chiefly, the Federal Reserve of America, which at some point will not be able to service the accrued debt payments for the United States. Increasing interest rates will only increase the velocity of the destruction of the economy, and drag many under.

This may even be the penultimate entrance of the post-consumer era, where the excesses of the past will be all but forgotten dreams. Remember when we had supermarket shelves full of various different products, like thirty different types of raspberry jam, and forty different brands of dishwasher tablets?

The global pandemic will continue, and people who think one day the virus will stop mutating, or will not increase its efficiency in killing, are sadly deluded. Yes, globalization was good for distribution, but as mentioned before, what do you do when half the truck drivers are either sick or dead? What about specialist engineers, you can’t just train anyone to replace people who have trained for years, and gained the necessary experience to run things in the correct manner?

Each level of the chain has their specialists, who are highly trained/experienced operatives within their field of expertise, when they’re sick or dead — good luck in a suitable replacement.

The sprockets, the microchips, the raw materials mined to eventually manufacture specialist rare earth products for the computer industry are all intertwined, and thus vulnerable to supply chain problems.

Furthermore, we may be globalized, but the supply chain can also be further disrupted by border disputes, by wars, and other variables pertaining to political/national conflict.

Folks, this shit will continue for the next decade or so…

 

Poor Boris! He’s Down For the Count

Poor Boris! He’s Down For the Count

After a series of mishaps, Boris Johnson is down for the count. As is the case in most political careers, there comes a time when one’s luck runs out, and it seems Boris’ mojo has long since departed to better climes.

We like Boris at the Squib, always will, always have, but the amount of shit that has been thrown at this guy is truly astonishing. Okay, some of the misfortune is his own making, but there have been some wildcards of bad luck sent his way. Chief of all is the Covid nightmare, then there’s Biden who hates the Brits, as well as his old mate Cummings and of course Sunak and other assorted vipers waiting in the wings to plunge their knives firmly in his back.

Led on by his new young power crazy wife, Boris has basically parroted every single one of her demands, and after siring two sprogs by Carrie, is now for the moment tied down with this woman. Because of his weakness, he has followed bad advice, watching his previously good reputation and good luck flushed down the toilet.

So, what the fuck is Boris to do now? His Brexit minister has quit, and do you blame the fellow? Brexit in the mind of Boris is an all too distant memory, when in reality it is an ongoing concern, especially with the vindictive EU intent on revenge.

Maybe shutting down the country again will avert some of this mess, however the mess is so vast it may take more than that, plus the Tory rebels will want blood for sure.

There is an even worse threat to Britain and Brexit now rearing its ugly head once more, and that is the war criminal Tony Blair, who will completely eviscerate Britain once and for all if he comes back into the position of Labour leader.

Prepare for war, perhaps, because war is always the great equaliser. The only thing that can save Boris right now is a Maggie Thatcher Falklands moment. War, then a firm British victory would absolve Boris of any previous animosity, as well as seal his image in the history books.

Get the Generals searching for a war Boris, something relatively easy to win yet with a decent newsworthy profile. It’s either that or bow out with your head firmly dipped in disgrace.

How Did the Omicron Virus Appear Out of Nowhere?

How Did the Omicron Virus Appear Out of Nowhere?

In scientific reality, viruses can be engineered in laboratories, they can be altered, they can be weaponised. Scientists have been conducting these experiments for years. It is therefore not a conspiracy theory that scientists have been creating and engineering new variants of viruses for some time. In this life, and crazy world, one should not cancel anything out because there is a distinct possibility that the Covid, and Omicron virus were tweaked in laboratories, then released into the population. The CCP (Chinese Communist Party) have been boasting about their prowess in the field of virology for decades, especially with the world renowned Wuhan centre of Virology, where the first outbreak occurred in 2019.

One initial observation of the new Omicron virus is that it appeared suddenly with a vast amount of mutations not directly correlating to the other Covid mutations. This is suspicious, because the perfect nature of Omicron is almost too perfect, as if it were engineered to be this way.

Appearing originally in Botswana, and then South Africa, the Omicron virus could have been deliberately released in Africa to deflect any relation to China, however the CCP’s Belt and Road Initiative is heavily proliferated in Botswana amongst many other African nations. The Belt and Road Initiative has carved up large swathes of the African continent, because the Chinese need the prevalent raw resources mined from African nations. Effectively, the Chinese utilise a smoke-screen to fool African leaders that they will improve their country’s infrastructure by building roads and railways, however this comes at a large cost for the African nations, especially after all their natural resources are suddenly siphoned off and sent to China’s monstrous manufacturing industry.

This time around, the Chinese did not want to be implicated, so they released the virus in Africa, knowing very well that it would spread to the rest of the world within weeks.

Well, here we are now with Omicron spreading like wildfire in the UK, US, and Europe as well as multiple African nations. Granted, at the moment there is little data to suggest if this Omicron virus is deadlier than the Covid-19 SARS strains, however there is one thing we can ascertain, and that is the spread factor of this new virus is astounding. One could postulate that it is only a matter of time before Omicron begins to mutate naturally to become deadlier than anything else ever encountered in human history. The Omicron virus is therefore a perfect new base for even deadlier mutations, as it constantly tries to circumnavigate the body’s immune system.

chinese scientist laughing covid-19 chinaThe CCP’s goal for the past forty years has been to first industrialise; its goal to become the world’s factory of cheap goods, its second plan was to militarize at speed with the aid of Western money and stolen blueprints. Thirdly, imitating Sun Tzu, destabilise the West and entire globe through any means possible, either through economical means, infiltration, propaganda (Black Lives Matter, #metoo, ANTIFA) as well as engineered viruses (Wuhan, Botswana).

The ultimate goal as espoused by Xi Jinping is a global China, and through dispersion of a virus which weakens the enemy, eventually leading to the collapse of entire nations, will leave China in a beautiful sweet spot to simply walk in to other countries taking them over. This can be accomplished using the ruse of a saviour, or a helper, however once China moves in to a territory, it will never leave. Once within any weakened nation, China will move its military in to take over with little or no resistance.

The China Standards 2035 plan is an all encompassing global programme to take over every nation in the world. The CCP is hoping that the viruses they have released will depopulate/destabilise many nations so that the Chinese people can eventually move in.

One can eventually imagine global cities like London, Paris, Rome, New York, Tokyo, Sydney, Moscow, all populated solely by Chinese people in the not too distant future.

We must also remember that Omicron is a test virus. As of yet, the virus does not cause too much lung damage, but is over 70% more infectious than the Delta variant. The Chinese scientists wanted to first create an extremely infectious pathogen, then after that point analyse the infection rate data. They did not want to make the virus immediately deadly because this would make other nations suspicious. The next stage for the scientists is to engineer and release an extremely infectious and ultimately deadly virus, which will also mutate of its own accord whilst shutting China down from the rest of the world. The Chinese have shown their efficiency in containment and as a communist totalitarian state, they have the ability to instate Draconian rules that the Western countries cannot tolerate.

Jill Biden Reveals Why Joe Biden Wears Sunglasses at All Times

Professor Dr Dean of Delaware University, Dr Jill Biden, has revealed why Joe Biden wears dark sunglasses all the time, even when inside buildings.

“It’s quite simple really. Joe wears sunglasses everywhere because of his eyes, well there’s no life there. Joe’s gotta dead stare, like there’s nothing behind there, see. He said he doesn’t wanna spook people out. You know, most people have a little life in their eyes, you can tell if something is dead or alive from looking at the eyes, right? In Joe’s case, there’s nothing. He can only stare forward and never blinks. In fact, since marrying him, I have never seen Joe blink once. There is no light there, just sunken blackness, and the impression of death.”

One reporter for MSNBC asked Dr Jill Biden whether Mr Biden wears sunglasses in bed? 

“I don’t know. We haven’t slept together since 1990. Every night I put him in his cupboard where he stands there until the morning just staring out with a blank look on his face. Recently, though, his doctors have advised I give him formaldehyde injections just to keep his flesh from rotting or, god forbid, falling off. Can you imagine that? It would be all over Twitter or some other terrible internet place,” Jill added emphatically.

Now we all know, although many have suspected something was not right for a very long time.

Vaccine Mandates for Dentists in the UK: Do They Work?

Vaccine Mandates for Dentists in the UK: Do They Work?

There is a lot of debate around the vaccine mandate, which has become a more political wormhole than a matter of public health nowadays. The question is of personal freedoms and individual cases vs the greater good and health of everyone around you.

After anti-vax protests, campaigns to get shots, arguments over the use of masks on planes, it seems the British Dental Association has waded in on the discussion. And the conversation is more nuanced than you might think.

Read on as we break down all the details on the dentistry vaccine mandates in the UK.

What is being said?

The British Dental Association is warning government officials in the UK that enforcing mandatory vaccinations for all health and social care staff will have a “calamitous” effect on dental services across England.

This comes after MPs voted in early December to approve of mandatory vaccine requirements for social care NHS staff. The idea is that all healthcare staff should have their second vaccination by April 2022 or else risk their jobs.

It is a strong move equivalent to the government putting their foot down, but the BDA has said that it could have a negative effect on the dentistry industry as a whole.

Across the world, organisations and bodies are calling for mandates. The Canadian Dental Association is one, meaning that health care workers in a dentist in downtown Vancouver, for instance, will be required to be vaccinated. The US have passed a mandate requiring vaccines across big businesses. They have resulted in an increase in vaccinated people.

How are dentists affected?

The BDA has further warned the UK government that enforcing mandatory vaccinations will be like “dropping a bomb on a service that is already stretched to breaking point”. The main worry is that making vaccines mandatory will force the mass walkout of dental staff, with numbers in the thousands.

The problem is that only one in 10 dentists have only received their second vaccination thus far in December 2021 and, more worryingly, 9% haven’t had their first dose.
By forcing dentist staff to get a jab, the government risks a mass walkout that will impact millions of patients across the country, according to the BDA.

It’s worth noting that the rollout has done well, according to a survey of 1,642 dentists in England. 78% of dentists had two doses and their booster, while 10% had got as far as becoming double vaxxed. However, there is a considerable 2% that refused to inform the survey of their vaccination status.

How are the patients affected?

The consequences of putting pressure on English dentists has worried staff not only due to the state of their businesses, but for the patients that will be affect. Patients have been informed they might have to wait for a matter of years before they can get an appointment, which has led to some drastic measures, like patients who were reported pulling out their own teeth and using DIY filling kits.

Chair of the BDA, Eddie Crouch, released a statement that expressed dentists ongoing support of the vaccine rollout, and the services’ stellar appreciation and “gold standard” for safety, but that the vaccine mandate is “a blunt instrument”, and will have “devastating consequences” to patients across the country.

#metoo: Now the Soviets are Coming For the Legacy Rock Bands and Groupies

It had to happen sooner or later, in the next phase of the horrendous soviet #metoo movement — rock stars would be targeted.

Legacy rock bands like Led Zeppelin were pretty much untouchable, that is until the #metoo monster reared its ugly head from beneath the soiled sheets of rock star excess.

Some #metoo snivelling male shill has gone and written a book with unsubstantiated rock’n’roll rumours from over 50 years ago, that may or may not have happened — allegedly. We will not even mention this fungal wart lodged firmly in the arse crack of humanity because to do so might somehow promote their obscene puritan yellow stained book.

How far back do these #metoo lunatics want to go? How about the Spanish Inquisition or the pillaging Viking raids on the coasts of Britain 1000 years ago? What do these hysterical flapping women want from men and history. Yes, the history of men and women is indeed messy, but why dreg it up? This reverse witch hunt is truly ridiculous and completely useless.

Fucking rock star hotel rooms after a gig were smoke-filled Dionysian orgies, no one even saw a face or knew a name, the groupies would all fight over each other to fellate the band, or plonk their bottoms on some rock star’s straining phallus for the hundredth time that night. Amongst the farm yard animals, dead fish, Mars bars and lines of coke, televisions were thrown out of closed hotel windows, groupies were chained to plumbing pipes and some damn great rock songs were written, inspired by these exquisitely Bacchanalian tour jaunts that lasted for years at a time.

Do what thou wilt, and they did, including Ozzy sniffing ants, Motley Crue lining up girls like pinballs, Bowie being served up another willing participant amongst the thousands before, and Jimmy Page receiving exactly what he signed that contract with the horned one in the first place to bloody receive.

Groupies came thick and fast, from Cynthia Plastercaster who made plaster casts of rock star cocks as a form of art, including Jimi Hendrix. Groupies like Nancy Spungen, Bebe Buell, Pamela Des Barres and all the other girls fighting for the ultimate prize after every gig were the juice that rock’n’roll ran on, apart from the booze and drugs that is.

There Was No Christmas Party at Number 10, Just a Tory Party

What’s all this talk about a bloody Christmas party at Number 10 last year when everyone was ordered to be locked down sitting alone in freezing cold rooms watching awful re-runs on telly, munching on cold morsels of fucking turkey?

There was certainly no Christmas party at the Number 10 flat, no, it was just a Tory party.

Wine and cheese? Nonsense, there was nothing of the sort, the Tory party gathering consisted of socially distanced members of the Tory party sitting around a room on chairs five feet apart, and all members wore masks over their faces.

The Tory party who attended the Tory party in Number 10 all had fond memories of the Tory party last Christmas.

“I was wearing my gimp latex suit when I arrived fashionably three hours late, and was greeted at the door by Carrie and her friends. Boris was in the corner guffawing whilst stuffing copious amounts of cheese and crackers into his mouth, intermittently taking large glugs from a champagne bottle of sorts. Boris was half naked and had his usual nipple clamps on.

“The Tory party, or should I say orgy was in full swing, and I say even Profumo would have gawped. Reclining on the chaise longue was Gove sniffing a certain substance before jumping up to perform a sickly spasticated dad dance that should frankly have been videoed for mass internet viral distribution.

“As for Sajid, all I saw was his shiny, sweaty bald head bobbing up and down behind the sofa. The groans emanating from behind the sofa were mixed with obvious pleasure and pain, as one knows, a delightful mix.

“This adorable Bacchanalian display reminiscent of one of Caligula’s milder Roman orgies was compounded by the wallpaper of the flat, which under my state of inebriation seemed to be somewhat animated, such was its distasteful colour. Who on earth could have chosen such a monstrosity and not paid a penny for it?

“Priti was last in. She was in her usual dominatrix outfit and started to whip Sunak’s bare arse cheeks with vigour, leaving large angry welts. She kept calling him a dirty immigrant, much to his yelping delight.

“At one point, there was a brief pause as Shapps rushed across the crowded room, jumping over all the writhing bodies. It was too late. He projectile vomited over Carrie’s wallpaper and dog. There was not too much difference, I remarked in my head, before curling up in a ball on the floor in the foetal position.”

When Satire Predicts the Future

It is strange how sometimes satire written many years ago somehow becomes a reality.

The Daily Squib wrote a satirical article in 2015 imagining portable Abort Pods being available to any human who simply wanted to euthanise themselves. The iAbortPod app would direct them to the right place, where they would even choose their own music as they expire. This painless operation would also recycle the bodies efficiently.

Fast-forward to 2021, and a Swiss company has come up with a portable abort pod or ‘suicide capsule’ that pretty much does the same thing we wrote about in 2015. The person who wishes to terminate themselves is directed via an app to a place where the suicide capsule is located. They are then terminated. The Sarco Suicide Pod by Swiss company https://www.exitinternational.net/ is expected to be operational in 2022 and has passed legal review in Switzerland.

Thank you for reading the Daily Squib, where satire sometimes becomes reality in the future.

British Robotics Company Engineered Arts are Global Pioneers

Created by Will Jackon, Engineered Arts is the UK’s leading designer and manufacturer of humanoid entertainment robots, is how they describe themselves. However, there is certainly something deeper to their existence as a robotics ‘entertainment’ company.

Where robotics companies like Hanson Robotics and Boston Dynamics are actively trying to create robots that will eventually be mass-produced as helpers for humans, Engineered Arts is actually succeeding in what the other companies are desperately trying to achieve — realism in movement and aesthetics.

Where Sophia of Hanson Robotics is awkward to watch with stunted facial movements and absolutely horrendous jerky motility, the robotics engineers at Engineered Arts have truly captured the intricate muscle movements that denote facial expressions in humans.

Passing the uncanny valley is the key to the future of robotics, and with the fluid emotional qualities of Engineered Arts robots, there is a brief leap across the uncanny valley, although we still consciously can see these machines are robots.

We all know it’s just not the outward aesthetics that matter in robotic design, but the AI is ultimately the clincher of the entire enterprise, you cannot have one element and fall in another, both the AI and aesthetics must be proficient and complement each other.

If scientists can grow human organs and meat in laboratories, they can surely grow muscles or flesh and skin, which will eventually be placed over the skeletal bodies of these machines. The question then is how do you keep these elements alive, well, much like a real human these robots would have to incorporate a system of blood or specialist fluid vessels across the body, so the tissue could continue to live? Possibly the material covering the exoskeleton would be a composite material that is formed from a durable artificial substance and active biological cells incorporated with Nano technology to deliver nutrients or repair areas damaged.

The main problem with robotics at the moment is powering these machines, and it is possible that future robots will be powered by a specialist fluid, or battery cells that regenerate energy through movement or even utilise solar energy. Not sure about nuclear fission battery cells similar to those of Terminators visualised by the Terminator series? If the nuclear option were the case, then protection from radioactivity would have to be paramount in design. What’s the point of having these eternal robots walking around if they’re irradiating everything and killing off human fertility?

Recreating every single dendrite and synaptic pathway in the human brain is a long way away, however this mapping is in progress. Even though this may eventually happen, there will always the problem that every human brain is mapped differently and unique, therefore the scientists will have to possibly settle for a generic model to fabricate, then build on additions as required for future alterations.

As much has happened in history, it is British innovation that is truly moving robotics forward. Engineered Arts is currently leading the field.

Man Left Homeless After Leaving Job and Listening to Prince Harry

Left homeless and destitute, Joe Barry, 42, from Hornsey, North London is kicking himself for listening to Prince Harry, who urged people to leave their jobs if they did not like what they were doing.

Prince Harry, who has never had a proper job in his life, and only holds positions in useless boutique companies where he only attends once every four months to talk gobbledygook woke word salad learned from his controlling wife, is certainly not anyone who knows anything about the real world.

“I listened to Prince Harry saying I should leave my job if I’m unhappy. Well, when I did, I applied to about 500 other jobs but was rejected by all. Many businesses are going under and cannot even afford anyone new. I then started receiving bills that I could not pay. My wife left me taking everything, then the bank took the house, and I was left with a black bin bag of stuff.”

Mr Barry tried to get shelter for the homeless, but everything is full, especially over the Christmas period.

“I roam the streets all day, then at night find a shop entrance where I can bed down. I don’t have any money, so I search bins for food, and one kebab shop owner was kind enough to give me some chips. Every night before I bed down I curse Prince Harry and his pompous idiotic advice. God knows how many lives he will ruin. I should have stayed in my old job which was enough to live on.”

There is hope for Mr Barry though, he has found his way to London’s Soho district, where there are opportunities for him to make some money.

“I can make £20 a whack giving blowjobs to dirty old men, and even young gays who like older men. My only expense is some mouthwash and a pair of kneepads. It ain’t much, but I hope to afford to pay for my own flat space in a few months time. I’ve now picked up a bit of a heroin habit though, but it’s the only way I can get through the days.”
