  1. As I was loading this scrapmetal onto the trailer, a lot of the rusty pipes had soil stuck in them. Since I want to keep my soil and the scrap dealer doesn't want it anyways, I banged the pipe ends on a rock so the soil would fall out.

    One thick pipe was almost full. A lot of brown dirt chunks came out. One of the chunks that dropped out hastily ran for a meter away and stopped, exhausted and panting heavily.

    Oops, scared the shit out of a poor mouse who thought it had built an impenetrable house inside that steel pipe.

    Sorry mouse. Force majeure!

  3. Golfo, il maggiore produttore di alluminio blocca parte delle consegne
    metallirari.com/golfo-maggiore
    Emirates Global Aluminium ha invocato la clausola di “forza maggiore” su alcune forniture, mentre l’alluminio sale a 3.498 dollari. Sullo sfondo, la chiusura dello Stretto di Hormuz minaccia una cascata di tagli produttivi nel Golfo.

  5. ⬆️ >> Lots of #financial shenanigans afoot with #DFCInsurance they "already anticipated… because #Lloyds does call #ForceMajeure and the policies drop away…"

    This is a long, deep story along a global #fertilizer - #famine axis.

    The Architectural Fracture: How #Insurance, Not Missiles, Sealed #StraitOfHormuz

    #US response was financial rather than naval. #DFC announced a $20B reinsurance plan for #Gulf shipping and named #Chubb [check hashtag] as lead insurance partner

    Of course I don't believe any words coming out the mouths of the #Trump Administration, but oftentimes, it is their body language and tone of delivery that gives the game away.

    Look in the thread for the body language of #Bessent when he makes a circular motion to explain the $20B #DFC "circular" #insurance program as a #Ponzi scheme to profit from when #Lloyds declares #ForceMajeure and refuses to pay for ships and cargo lost in the #StraitOfHormuz.

    Watch his fingers go round and round as he says "circular".

    Looks like a $20B circular #insurance #Ponzi scheme for #oil tankers that #Trump has planned to sell to shippers and skim from because he knows that Lloyds of #London will refuse to pay.

    Remember the $4B insurance payout after 9/11 #terrorist attacks?

  12. ⬆️ >> Read between the lines

    Lots of #financial shenanigans afoot with #DFCInsurance which they had "already anticipated… because #Lloyds does call #ForceMajeure and the policies drop away… and $20B in #insurance for tankers… will be enough to ensure a CIRCULAR insurance program"

    Watch his fingers go round and round as he says "circular".

    #Bessent says "I'm not keeping the running cost… but the PUBLIC number was $11B thus far."

    Wonder what's the actual private number

  13. Force Majeure - A clause in contracts that protects against unforeseen events such as natural disasters or uprisings and similar crazy situations. #business #contract #forcemajeure #clause

  14. For an alcohol-free beer, Force Majeure Tripel is quite drinkable and IMHO presentable as alternative.

    👆 The more I read about Starmer's thinking the more I'm prepared that he might just be right. It's more than likely that #ForceMajeure will either force the "U"K🇬🇧 back into the EU🇪🇺 as 1 thing or as 4 independent things...so don't die on those hills; pick a better battleground.

    (Whatever y' do, damage some #Tories along the way. #Scum.)

    1st Rule of Politics: DON'T LOSE.

    2nd Rule of Politics: SEE RULE 1.

    ONLY once you've NOT LOST, decide what to do...

    Circumstances, forces and #ForceMajeure change very quickly.

    (Jeremy Corbyn forgot both. See what happened.)

    👆 It's called #ForceMajeure and #Tactics. Never looks or feels good. Especially in advance.

    👆 Fortunately all bets are off in the few days of horse-trading after a #GeneralElection.

    "I'm about to let #ForceMajeure make me do things I said I'd never do."

    Maybe LAB need it to look like they were forced into #PR?

    (In a "make it look like an accident, Mr. Bond" style.)

    👆 #Circumstances and #ForceMajeure will be calling the shots. The #Brexperiment equates to learning about hand-grenades by seeing what happens once the pin is pulled out. (💥)

    Also, don't forget #Demographics:
    a lot of old racists* & #Tory-voters & #Leave-voters will be shuffling off even as we speak. ⚰

    [* For the absence of doubt, no, I'm not saying all oldsters are racists; I'm an oldie & not the R-word. Or the T-word. Or the L-word.]
