21. Isilme and her Beloved went for a walk

She wrote: “I don’t have much to say about the walk as it wasn’t that inspiring, which is why it was so nice to see the violets!”

20. Doctors of Death


19. Snow White

This apparently the remake which the picture in Ladies at Lunchtime was about.

b. Hearts of Oak: Catherine Blaiklock – Reform UK Under Scrutiny: Farage Power Play and Party Struggle

c. War Room:

  • Julie Kelly: DOJ Considers State Secret Privilege To Keep National Security Details Away From Judge Boasberg
  • T**my R**inson’s Life Threatened By M**lim Inmate In Prison, Peter Mcilvenna Reports*
  • Peter Mcilvenna: Multiculturalism Has Turned Europe Into One Big No-Go Zone
  • Andy Biggs: Congress Should Pass A Resolution Terminating Boasberg For Bad Behavior Under Article 3

*On that point about the danger, MMutR pointed that out firmly that it’s not any of those other factrs as much … it’s the constant, 24/7 fear that that cell door is going to be left unlocked … that’s what would play on his mind. That governor is sadistic in the extreme.

16. I’ve strong feelings about this rally

There were some amateurish things here, even her trying to be heard over the speaker in the bkgd, the rent-a-hamas lot trying to break up the rally, the small crowd … the whole thing very real … real people trying to do what they can to fight this machine. All power to the victims and organisers.

Peter Gunn

First an apple-log … lay on the bed for a few minutes around elevenses, awoke in the late 1300s … uh huh. Right … to business. I never saw Peter Gunn when it came out, which may have had something to do with it not being on tele or me being too young.

So … t’other day, thought I’d watch the first episode … straight down the line mob boss thing … 26 minutes, not much story development. This actor hangs around low joints but in the most expensive gear … not an open invitation? There’s the mandatory girl on the balcony with him … he tries to act nonchalant and standoffish, she adores him but is hardbitten. Uh huh.

Every episode is the same … except for some plot variations … judge by this episode two below. My thoughts on the series are below the episode …

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Gunn

Now that theme … there’s the Mancini version, which is the original and verra nice indeed, boss … there’s the Art of Noise version with Rik Mayall and the girl in red, also verra nice and quite fun …

… then there’s the Duane Eddy version we’ve had at nourishing a few times … to my mind, it’s the most authentic for the era, it came from that era, Duane Eddy was the real thang hisself:

My thoughts on the series? It’s ok, a curiosity, redolent of The Untouchables, which I did watch, of Dragnet, and later … 77 Sunset Strip … that sort of thing. My thoughts on the times? Brilliant … luv em … the second half of the 50s, first half of the 60s I mean, not the bootleg era itself.

I was a little kid, a spotty herbert with an annoying manner or else in a world of my own … protected by the times we were in. Kidnap? Paedos? Never gave anything nasty much thought, was sure I could have escaped, I had my Colt 45 cap gun and enough rolls of caps to deal with any baddy … in that sense, idyllic times, three square meals a day, didn’t like having to help dry the dishes though. /END.

Saturday [11 to 15]

(1028). Approaching brunch. (1322)

 

15. Moosh corner


14. Coronation Street weighs in


13. Conscientious objection

To my mind, it depends on the reason. In my rugby days, the coach wanted us to hate the opposition for the duration of the game, then have a drink with them after. In early military days, to my mind it didn’t much matter where I was deployed … not so now I’ve lived in some of those countries, made friends.

Some countries I’ve not lived in, have no intention of, don’t like their lifestyle, their savagery. Then we get to those we don’t mind so much but they want us dead or raped … sadly, they’ve cast their vote, their behaviour now determines our response.


12. From the recent Monkeywerx comments thread … IYE


11. The Animals

Occasionally, the leftwing Quora can be useful, for example:

Why did “The Animals” not achieve the same level of success as other popular groups from their era such as The Beatles and The Rolling Stones?

“The Animals were always an uneasy alliance. Looks like Alan Price had his eyes on a solo career from the get-go. Chas Chandler told a story that, the morning Price received his first royalties for ‘House of the Rising Sun’, he immediately went to the management and resigned! Two days before an American tour! Eric Burdon and Chas became two the two pillars of the rest of the band and it wasn’t long before Burdon was fronting The New Animals and Chas came back home to start a very nice career in band management … Jimi Hendrix and Slade… you may have heard of them.”

All right … common thing back then … if you had more than one drawcard, then there’d be ambition and tension. But what about a unipolar band, such as CCR, Dire Straits, Ian Dury, Mink de Ville, it goes on? In that case, it seems to be that eventually the band would rebel, mutiny, e.g. CCR.

And it was particularly the case if the main man or gal (Bangles) dominated and the rest of the band, each who could play very well in him/herself, often from former bands, found themselves playing excellent second fiddle.

Then you had the purist leader of the band, supposedly only in it for the creativity, provided there was enough money to pay the bills and some more. Mark Knopfler claimed that later in the band’s era.

What’s been left out of the equation so far is the listeners, the ones paying the money for the albums and concerts in those days. What about those poor sods, the fans? Most latch onto some phase of the band … for me, it was early Talking Heads, not that later World at War type stage act with dancers … they lost me then, particularly when it became acrimonious.

Then there are those not having a bar of a genre, whilst I’m sure there must be some good examples in each, except maybe post year 2000. Classical? Renaissance man? Blues? Jazz? Which jazz?

Saturday [10]

Beware the return of the sausages

You may have noticed, in Sat 9, Fri 25, Ladies at Lunchtime and Thur 19, an ongoing joke … some wag suggested that Penelope Keith killed JFK … a document was altered in a parody. Russell Brand believed it … the gag was born. The lady focussed on is a long retired English actress, almost a Grande-Dame.

Where the gag falls flat is for those from another land … and we have a few of those at Unherdables … I did send a clip of The Good Life to Toodles … but where the gag holds up is in its “repetition ad nauseam”. It’s not enough to repeat it three or four times, as the net and our dear readers are discovering … the key point is ad nauseam, ha ha.

This is slightly different to The Streisand Effect, which Wiki explains this way:


The Streisand effect is an unintended consequence of attempts to hide, remove, or censor information, where the effort instead increases public awareness of the information. The term was coined by Mike Masnick after Barbra Streisand attempted in 2003 to suppress the publication of a photograph showing her clifftop residence in Malibu, taken to document coastal erosion in California, inadvertently drawing far greater attention to the previously obscure photograph. The effect exemplifies psychological reactance, in which the attempt to hide information instead makes it more interesting to seek out and propagate.

The difference between that and doxxing is that in doxxing, there is no way the victim would want it published, has taken no steps to do that and the action of doing it is malicious and intended to actually harm, not just to mock … which I suggest is also the difference between the left and the right.

You might remember the superinjunction phase in Britain when everyone knew who was bonking a chap’s brother’s wife … the name was common talk around town … and yet the injunction remained at that point. Someone on HIGNFY may have broken the law by breaking that.

HERE

There are many examples of the power of the net, once something goes viral but there’s also TV at issue. Years ago, downunder, there was a nationally shown football talk show (1994 to 2019 apparently) and in boy culture, one never claims something not-so if one wishes to avoid a bollocking or merciless grilling.

When it becomes a Streisand or Penelope repetition though, ad nauseam, not only is it very, very funny, except for the one who slipped up, but everyone knows it will go on and on and on …

… and when the one pilloried is a buffoon anyway, trying to claim he’s tough when he’s not … he’s just asking for it. In this clip, there is a second footballer of the time, in the studio with them, called Nathan, a good player it seemed, who suffered broken bones in a collision … well just watch the clip.

Compounding it is that the buffoon being pilloried was also porking the ex-wife of one of the panellists … not a nice man at all.

Try to sit through this because it gets better as it goes on:

It then went countrywide viral, even to other shows:

Once you try to return those sausages, it’s stuck on your CV forever … better to have just ridden it out.

Potatoes

 

The only thing I’d suggest to the Irish narrator is to be careful saying the word “third”. 😌

As for the issue, well yes … as many commenters note, as does the narrator himself … it’s not the availability of food per se … it’s its means of distribution … and if the PTB is deliberately preventing, wrecking that means, in order to “punish” a recalcitrant, bovine people, then that cabal or lord or whatever will be fine with the resulting Holodomor … he or they will not care in the least, just as with Two Tier at the moment … after all, he sees himself as one of The Chosen, a cut above.

Pure satanism writ large.

Saturday [6 to 9]

(0607) Morning all … looks bleak out there. (0753)

 

9. Watch out today


8. Jenrick, Poilievre, Ford



7. TR report you’ve probably already gathered


6. Calling it “squabbling” is mendacious misrepresentation

There is a fundamental divide in this society … on one side, hurtling towards the abyss, are globopsycho, puppet politicians, the MSM, the judiciary, medicine, social services, law enforcement, education, therefore young females on the whole, almost the entire imported herdery whose reality is what is fed them … adopting far left positions whilst thinking of themselves as “reasonable”, “love everyone, including monsters”, kind, gentle people …..

….. and on the other side, flawed, from different walks of life, is that ragtag of unherdable cats who really have woken up to the reality facing us … that we are staring down the barrel or blade of those about to snuff out the last vestiges of our “western” society and then, the very brass at the top, supposedly of our own side tries on this mendacious misrepresentation of the Reform situation … calling it “squabbling”, as if hit jobs by “the gang of four” are just some inconsequential infighting between some naughty boys …..

….. when in fact it’s a concerted, dishonest attempt by the brass to snuff out the central issue in our society today, along with trying to induce a crash, plus snuffing out the elderly and farmers. This is an all out attempt to snuff out dissenting opinion … opinion which does not wish to see the end of the west, the end of Britain, of England.


In short, the gang of four have turned out to be quislings, attempting to ride grassroots fervour to shackle it to globopsycho as the fourth branch of the Uniparty. This is no “squabble”, ladies and gentlemen … it’s survival, no more, no less.

Saturday [1 to 5]

(0348) Looking a bit dark out there. (0550)

 

5. DAD at 1001

4. Over at Orphans

3. Cosmetic surgery

“President Donald Trump just revoked access to classified information for people such as Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, Adam Kinzinger, Joe Biden and others.”

This is of more value:

Trump revokes legal status for 530,000 Cubans, Haitians,Nicaraguans and Venezuelans.


2. RIP George Foreman

“George Foreman dies at 76: Heavyweight boxing legend, famous entrepreneur leaves ‘big’ legacy. Foreman won two heavyweight championships, fought Muhammad Ali in the ‘Rumble in the Jungle’ and captured gold in the 1968 Olympics.”

Ladies at lunchtime

 


You might know the meme below by now … wonder if you do? It’s a picture of a younger her.


This below is also topical right now … to our lady readers, sorry but had to show her back, it’s part of an issue going viral online … any idea which issue?


Whose cosmonauts?
