Is our relentless quest for economic growth killing the planet? Climate scientists have seen the data – and they are coming to some incendiary conclusions. In December 2012, a pink-haired complex systems researcher named Brad Werner made his way through the throng of 24,000 earth and space scientists at the Fall Meeting of the American…

(failsafe mirror from) The following article is the exploratory article for Impact Festival (wiki), taking place in Utrecht from 30 wednesday October to Sunday 3 November in Utrecht, here. The theme for impact is “Capitalism, Catch 22“. I have been invited to speak by the people from Monnik. This article will link to the slides…

I was imagining the following purely as a speculation for the Netherlands. Like most things I write it is purely a speculative exercise, and free flow of ideas and associations within the context of the Netherlands. Feel free to follow me in my exploration, and maybe you’ll get inspired along the way. Imagine someone in…

Black Holes are collapsed stars that are so dense they have several distinctive effects on objects nearby. At the gravitational states of black holes the universe operates rather haphazardly and different from the normal universe, let alone the parochial mundaneity of our Earth’s surface. It won’t serve much use to explore in exhaustive details what…

Question Can you explain the petrodollar and its impact on our collapse? I had heard that we went from gold to fiat, then used fine print in the EPA charter to use federal lands as collateral for our federal debt. And now we have nowhere else to go but to protect the petrodollar, print money,…

When Hawks did his first laboratory experiment in december 2017 he was looking for a means to push dirt from flat screen solar panels using minimum electrical current. Hawks was a poor researcher working in some dismal US east coast laboratory and he had a pretty dismal methamphetamine habit. So he didn’t realize the implications…

It is the year 2079 I am floating in the void. This is a mission of great historical relevance. I am 350 Astronomical Units removed from earth. My signals take over two days to reach the inner solar system. I am flying solo in a private fusion-propelled yacht by the name of Stross IV. For…

Thinking about reunifying Korea is an exercise in voluntary migraine. North Korea is in a horrific state. Recently we have been told that North Korea may be close to collapse. So even if the western world (under a US led coalition, no doubt) would have any absolutely no ambition to topple the regime there, the…

The Shallow Well is a concept for a TV series, set on a lunar colony in the near future. It is the year 2034 and at the same time several groups of people make a desperate landing on the moon after being cut off from Earth. All the people that land on the moon were…

I realize that me posting this kind of content isn’t making me popular or anything but … ah fuck it.

I declare this meme open for use.

Today I did a test, and facebook was my test subject. Guess what? Facebook miserably failed this test. As some of my readers may know I legally changed my name in to Khannea Suntzu. The court case was handled on the 4th of july of this year and next month (October) my legal name will…

This website says in very clear words what I have already been saying for since the early 1990s. Let me rephrase what is being said here in my words. In the 1980s I did these roleplaying games and I was loosely involved in a semi-boardgame game called “Car Wars”. It was a game inspired by…

Source In the 21st century, the US National Security Agency (and other espionage agencies) face a storm of system-wide problems that I haven’t seen anybody talking about. The problems are sociological, and they threaten to undermine the way the Western security state operates. The big government/civil service agencies are old. The NSA’s roots stretch back…

I am not one of the most pessimistic people when I state that we live in somewhat precarious times. In a recent presentation I did in Croatia I laid out at least seven reasons why we live in a global economic and political order that is at best fragile (and at worst close to a…

I understand that many decidedly nationalist inclined US Americans (as well as many people of conservative stripe outside the US) don’t like whistle blowers, and these people seem to have an innate dislike of people like Assange, Manning and Snowden. I can only express my sincere appreciation for the great sacrifices these people make. A…

Khannea — You are never going to believe this one. Recently, The Young Turks put out a video about a member of Congress extorting money from a corporate lobbyists and leaving behind a voicemail as proof. It’s gotten so bad in Washington DC that they no longer even realize the immorality of their corruption. Maybe…

BERLIN, GERMANY., (Aug. 20, 2013) — In court papers filed today (PDF), The German Department of Justice requested that Adolf Hitler, Franz von Papen, Konstantin von Neurath, Joachim von Ribbentrop, Wilhelm Frick, Heinrich Himmler, Lutz Graf Schwerin von Krosigk, Franz Gürtner, Franz Schlegelberger, Joseph Goebbels, Hermann Göring, Albert Speer, Rudolf Hess and many others be…

The United States used to have a heroic reputation in Europe (and most of the world) since World War 2. In the old days America, in particular in my youth, was regarded with considerable awe. Progress happened in the United States, and not just technological progress. America signified the vanguard of social progress, freedom, consumer…
