It turns out that before I moved in to my apartment, someone let some of the pigeons from the colony in the parking garage across the street nest and lay eggs on balcony of my apartment. Pigeons, as I have found out, are deeply tied to their nesting location and will not easily give it up, even though there is a giant parking garage across the street where they live that is almost entirely empty other than for the pigeons.
They have left a huge pile of shit on my balcony in just two weeks. I work from home and I am getting up from meetings to spray water at them every time I hear them cooing on my balcony. My coworkers say I have developed pigeon madness.
I have declared war. Today is D Day.
I went to the hardware store to buy some 2x4s, clamps, and eye hooks, and to the sporting goods store to buy fishing line. I ran a line across the patio railing this afternoon. I didn't see or hear any pigeons for the rest of the day.
I went out to the patio two hours ago, and three pigeons were sleeping on the railing, having seemingly pushed the fishing line out of the way. I sprayed them until they flew away, and then set to work setting up another line at a different height.
I am planning my initial strategy: anti-access. Beyond perching on the railing and flying over it to land on my balcony, they are also getting in by landing on the ledge just on the other side of my railing and either going under the railing or hopping through the vertical bars. To prevent them from going under the railing, I am going to buy edging pavers to block the path. To prevent them going through the bars, I am going to get privacy netting or a bamboo screen.
Should my anti-access strategy fail, I will move on to phase 2: area denial. I have begun research on building an Rapsberry Pi controlled water gun turret using the Raspberry Pi's AI camera for targeting and servos to move the water gun.
It's the wonderful time of the year where I have to pretend I have a good relationship with my mother so that she doesn't take it out on my father and drive him into an early grave.
The architect who designed the building, Norman Foster, also owned a house on Martha's Vineyard called Blue Heron Farm, which he then sold to the Obama's, who in turn sold it to longtime Epstein patron Les Wexner this past summer. Foster also once won the Pritzker Prize in 2000, the "Nobel prize of architecture", which is award by the Hyatt Foundation, which is in turn run by Thomas Pritzker, billionaire son of Hyatt founder Jay Pritzker and former CEO of Hyatt who stepped down in disgrace after the release of the Epstein files revealed that he had been in contact with Jeffrey Epstein as late as 2018.
I've been falling asleep listen to twitch streams lately (crazy I know), and last night, I woke up to I think what sounded like something bumping around, and then like two seconds later, a woman's voice said "Hi...are you friendly?" and I think I almost had a heart attack. That's what I get for falling asleep listenimg to a rust streamer.
No, it's not reasonable, specifically for the reasons that I have already outlined in my initial post: there's people talk about this shit openly in these emails.
I'm not talking about 4chan, I'm talking about the emails. Every "pizza" email I have seen has been pretty easily explainable if you take even 30 secondss to actually look at them. I saw someone post an email about taking kids to a pizza party, and its literally just some parents, including someone who worked for Epstein, talking about having pizza party after a soccer game for the team, which you can can figure out if you recognize CT town names, you soccer terminology, or if you have the ability to do a Google search. Or another allegation that they were picking up "pizza" or "chick parm" orders for Epstein at 12:15 PM because "the time was actually code for age of girl he wanted", when if you look into the NYC restaurants in those specific emails, they all open at 12 PM.
There's more than enough open, plain English evidence of them abusing children without having to delve into food-based conspiracy theory.
The theory I have seen is that "beef jerky" is code for cannibalism, which is not helped the the fact that the chef who was making the jerky worked at a restuant in NYC called The Cannibal, which was a meat-focused restaurant.
I've read a ton of posts trying to argue all sorts of emails were "pizza code" I haven't seen one yet that was convincing. I've seen multiple where people were like "look at them talking about all this food" from restaurants I have literally been to. The guy just had pedestrian taste. Half the pizza emails are just talking about different pizza restaurants in NYC. We're talking about a guy who would invite like world leaders over and serve takeout Chinese food still in the paper boxes until prodigious creep Woody Allen had to tell him to get better food. The whole Pizzagate theory was pushed a Jack Posobiec, a US Naval intelligence officer. Its was an up to make anyone talking about Epstein in 2016 sound crazy by attaching this stuff to it.
The Epstein email have unleashed the worst kind of conspiracy theorists. Motherfuckers will read an email like
Jeff,
Thank you for trafficking that young Belarussian girl across international borders so that I could **** her during my lunch break at the annual Fascist Arms Show in Miami. Selling samurai sword bombs to the IDF sure builds up an appetite! I told her that if she tried to go the authorities, I would have her buried next to Ivana Trump by the end of the week.
Anyways, can you have your chef send me some of that beef jerky he makes?

I will not go out like the Australians.
