       K-Dog & The Collapse Cliques
       By: Glainty Glassaische Date: December 29, 2021, 2:04 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       In my online forays, I inevitably occasion upon the same
       individuals at various sites. I mean, let's face it, energy
       depletion and collapse sorts of subjects are going to attract
       certain individuals that get around to the sites on those
       subjects that are out there.
       K-Dog is one of them, complete with the logo which looks like a
       Chow breed or something like that.
       But I'm trying to recall exactly which sites. Kunstler's and
       McPherson's seem to come to mind, but I'm unsure. Maybe
       Resilience too. I've caught RE over at the defunct Oil Drum many
       years back, now that I think about it.
       Futilitist also got around-- 'Doomstead Diner', 'The Oil Drum',
       'Peak Oil Barrel', and 'Peak Oil'--  but seems to have fizzled
       out. But I guess if you get kicked off enough particular sites,
       your clique options necessarily diminish. Also, if you're
       somehow 'unstable' (so to speak) enough to get kicked off enough
       sites, then maybe it catches up to you and/or takes care of
       itself where being on those sites doesn't matter to you as much
       or anymore anyway, such as where you might have to deal with
       your 'issues'.
       I also run into Joe Clarkson, too, on a few of them, one of
       which, if recalled, being Tim Morgan's Surplus Energy Economics.
       Anyone go there?
       Myself, I recently narrowly escaped 'Peak Oil Barrel' intact
       when my challenging of the covid and its vaccine 'narratives'
       probably became too much for Ron Patterson who used to own the
       site but still had backdoor access.
       At one point, Ron deleted my comment, but in his own comment
       about it, he included only part of my comment, so out of context
       and misleading. He also mischaracterized me as an anti-vaxxer to
       boot.
       So Ron kind of lost part of his mind on that one and it was time
       to go for good before he made the decision for me. I was already
       half out the door anyway and the conversations were becoming
       repetitive and circular.
       Anyone else losing their minds these days? I mean besides WRT
       your boredom, RE.
       Speaking of which, did anyone hear about this semi-famous
       relatively-maskless woman on a plane get into a fit about a man
       not wearing a mask while eating? So she punched or slapped and
       spit on him and now she's got a legal case or 2 to contend with,
       along with other unrelated cases.
       RE, when you finally end your sword-fighting with the grim
       reaper using his inappropriate scythe, you may at least feel
       good with the knowledge that you're leaving a species that's
       slowly losing its s h i t...
       See, this system can't even let me spell s h i t properly,
       because, you know, we're all kids or shivery-frightened and
       offended (hoo, ha, oo, oh) of some words, so we need some kind
       of automata to take care of it for the ones that need it even
       though there are other ways-- like placing spaces-- to spell it
       anyway.
       BTW, I go by the handle, 'The Man They Call Zazelle' at
       Kunstler.

       K-Dog Admins this forum with me.  He''s a regular here.  You
       probably ran into him on JHKs site.  I didn't spend much time on
       Oil Drum, I was a regular on PeakOil.com.
       I don't remember you from the Diner.

       Anyone here remember Silent Country? End of the Oil Age? LATOC
       the original? Or LATOC II that followed? Dennis from Oregon and
       the one he fired up? Powerswitch? The Wolf At The Door?
       Llamados? There have been so many peak oil doomer clubs I can't
       even remember all their names nowadays. Most imploded after peak
       oil #4 of this century, never even made it to #5.
       Watching all of it unfold has been utterly fascinating, even if
       the wife thinks it is the weirdest hobby she's ever heard of.
