Was exploring 60s films and I feel there are leaner pickings on YT with the 60s. We’re starting to get into varying tastes … horror is becoming more openly so, esp. in the second half of the decade, there seems far more pap, there’s just something creeping in which I’m not that interested in, though others adore it e.g. The Blob. There’s also something twee, which in the 1935 to maybe 1955 period was more stylish, e.g. in dress. I don’t know exactly.
Anyway, this one seemed a routine flick but with an added extra … Merry Anders. Yes please.
”On Wednesday, May 27, 2026, the day after the plutonium announcement, Axios reported that Pam Bondi had been appointed to the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology. No White House press conference. No press release. No formal announcement. The news came out as a leaked scoop on the afternoon after a three-day weekend during a Senate primary news storm.….”
The only IYE Bondi reference I can find is here:
“Bondi will serve on the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, commonly known as PCAST, according to a White House official.”
Experience for the role besides none? Also:
She’s going to testify behind closed doors re the stuff she got up to whilst AG either today or tomorrow. She was subpoenaed in April but was a no-show.
8. The Filioque Clause
Easy for me, in 2026, to be dismissive of the seemingly stupid reason Constantinople fell but do watch the chap’s video I’ve posted twice now. Also, remember it’s pronounced fil ee o kwee.
The eastern church, in the centuries after Jesus died, was resurrected, ascended and so on certainly had Patriarchs but the whole thrust was more spiritual … that is, the idea was for the human head to move to the heart … to come to a relationship with God in a personal way. The closest we can get to that outside orthodoxy is for us, as protestants, to also have a personal relationship … that’s a very eastern concept, very mystical.
The western church though took a different path in Rome and they insisted, the head honchos, that ONLY their interpretation was right and the only human with any authority to say what was what was the Chicago hood there now. Doesn’t matter how rotten the Alexander Borgia is at the time … a politburo elected or parachuted human, even a raving communist, somehow was spiritually divine. Think you know what I think of that.
And not just me either but the eastern patriarchs too. And that sun god thing surrounding the cross, and the worshipping of Mary … yes yes, I know they say “venerating”.
So, the only reason I mention it is that west and east had quite different Christianity. They’d agreed on the Trinity all right, no issue there, plus a basic hierarchical order of Father first, obviously, then Son, and then the HS, who or which resides within the human who “buys the ticket”.
But now the events of 1054 took place (there’s a later split in 1378, plus Constantinople fell on May 29th, 1453). In the 1054, the western pope added that the HS proceeded from both the Father and the Son … it was just a correction in western minds, a minor matter.
Not so to the east … to them, it was the most egregious heresy. To the east, the spirit proceeded from the Father, via Son and into the human heart.
So the entire Christian church split up, in The Great Schism. Of course it was not only over that wording … it was the cavalier Bishop of Rome who was the issue. To the east, the bishop of Rome was certainly a Patriarch, but just one of many …
… and when Mehmet the infidel broke through and took Constantinople on this day back then, he immediately went to one of the Patriarchs and appointed him as such. He did not snuff out Christianity in Constantinople … not yet … despite turning the Hagia Sofia into a mosque.
Now, the only “Christianity” remaining was that of the Bishop of Rome, with Mehmet controlling the east. Some might say that satan finally had his victory until the protestant rebellions.
So today is certainly an auspicious day concerning a faith which began in AD 33 or thereabouts and which had gone through horrendous vicissitudes over the journey.
7. Quora again
Bearing in mind that Quora is one of those normie, old readers’ digest type magazines, only online … it’s not particularly leftwing in itself but it certainly has mainly political normies writing and thus is prone to believing in wokery such as the African origins of Europeans etc.
This extract below is by one Steve Rapaport, whose surname is Jewish. Relevant or not? Who knows?
“Many places end with the syllable “stan” such as Pakistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. Is there a meaning to this use of the suffix “stan”?
Oh, is there ever a meaning. It’s Proto-Indo-European and it’s everywhere.
The -stan here is from Persian -stan ‘place’, extended to ‘place of’ or ‘land of’. But it’s a Proto-Indo-European verb and noun, and it traces back 6000 years like this:
Thanks, Wiktionary. But it’s not just Persian that got this word. As you’ve noticed, स्थान sthān also means “place” in Hindi (originally Sanskrit) and most related Indic languages, hence “Pakistan”.All from Proto-Indo-Iranian, a daughter of Proto-Indo-European.
You use stan every day yourself, since Proto-Indo-European is also the root of all Germanic languages (including English), all Italic languages (including Latin and its descendants Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese,), and all Slavic and all Baltic and Hellenic and Celtic languages.
The original Proto-Indo-European is *steh₂-(“to stand”). The meaning remains similar in many descendant languages:
Proto-Italic*staēō becomes Lat. stāre, ‘to stand, to remain, to be at, to currently feel’. BecomesIt. stare, Rom. sta, Sp., Pt. estar, MFr. ester. Borrowedfrom MFr. into English as “to stay”. Ifyou’ve asked someone in Spanish “¿como está?”, you have used this.
Proto-Germanic *stāną just means “to stand” and that’s how it, um, stands in pretty much all the Germanic languages:
But it goes further afield too. In Greek a bus stand or station is σταθμός• (stathmós).
stan shows up in Russian стан (stan) meaning “settlement” or “semi-permanent camp” and Welsh sawdl (heel) with changed but recognizable meanings.
The related words state, status, station, and stadium have all bounced around Indo-European languages for a few millennia too.
You’ve found one of the great old words that hasn’t changed much since the invention of the wheel! Congratulations!
(P.S. Thanks to the commenters who pointed out my ignorance of the Hindi version. I added that in. Also, it looks like the Turkic languages borrowed it from the Persian, hence Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, etc.)”
6. Procedural matter for HQ again
I tend to see NOWP drops as requiring signposting here but also, increasingly, youtubes and rumbles seem to go there … that seems fine to me. What of comments at HQ though? It’s a much better sidebar list here because WP are not skewing it, as they do over there. Plus over there, I just click on the post and see what’s dropped.
Here at HQ, I have an advantage which readers don’t … I get to see the overview, e.g. these below from Steve and IYE:
Makes it so much easier to check that I have it covered. To compensate, to give readers a better chance to bookmark, the commenter list is elongated … that is, readers have about two days to bookmark something they like before it drops off the page below.
Now, what about not bookmarking elsewhere at all? Why not just let the comments be their own archive here? Reasoning is that HQ is our most secure archive as long as I myself am functioning. If something happens to me, HQ does not die in itself, not in the least, it is in backup mode and can be started up anywhere else in the UK where MMutR cares to plug it in.
Were it to be the case that something happens to me, NOWP and UHC-WP are still open for business … they’re public. So is Jstack and for awhile … OoL … fifteen months actually. But HQ here is tied to my being here at this abode and functioning. It all depends what MMutR does with the server. Being an uber-techy, he is more than capable of getting HQ rolling again.
But do bear in mind that though your drops here are safe enough whilst I function … your drops at NOWP or UHC-WP are only going to disappear if WP get it into their heads to do a Ggl Blgr stunt. I can’t see that happening in the short term.
Is there any … um … er … any chance of me … er … having something personal happen? Well, health report … seems ok just now, about to down the daily meds. 😎
… and its crucial implications for two Abrahamic religions.
How could a man, purportedly a Christian, have never heard of or at least noted this Psalm when it is central to Jesus’s divinity, referred to by Him a few times and has put Jews and/or Israelis into deep denial? Yet there it is … I never knew until yesterday.
For those reading through that summary and still not making head nor tail of it … my understanding is that it was definitely written by David … but about whom? We do get into the quality of translations from the Hebrew, as well as any later alterations, as in the Filioque Clause.
Among the thousands commenting on the Psalm, three stand out for me … Jesus Himself, Charles Spurgeon and CS Lewis, arguing that it’s beyond doubt that it presages Jesus. The Jews? They just say nah, it looks back at Abraham. They must say that of course.
It has certainly deeply affected high church rituals and music down through the ages and so, this morning, I move outside my comfort zone and actually play one version of it, musically:
(0446) Morning all, light’s up, the sky was red but has now angrily “nimbused” over. Not too bad, health wise, just now … which leads to the question what happened yesterday? What laid me out when I’m functioning fine just now? That’s an ongoing deep dive and you have your own deep dives going on. Cunning plan is op ed in Fri 1, bringing in Reform/Restore, DAD in Fri 2, Steve in Fri 4 … then a curious docu-short following Fri 1 to 5. (0617)
5. Ethnat v Civnat
Frankly, I don’t understand the niceties of this new division which seems to be dominating discourse on the trad right, in the old BNP, TR etc. so I’ll look it up, knowing that ggl search will be highly biased from a left perspective. Maybe.
The immediate problem with both models is that they are held, by their gobby head honchos, to be mutually exclusive, zero sum … but are they? Are they zero sum?
Take Ben Habib, born in Karachi in 1965. So he fails the Civnat test unless naturalised but what of shared culture? This is tricky, as so many under the Raj were influenced by British society, cultural mores etc. Many are “more British than the British” in outlook. What of Chuckles … South African or English?
From The 39 Steps:
“Richard Hannay, the fictional spy and protagonist created by author John Buchan, was born in Edinburgh, Scotland around 1877. He spent his early childhood in Scotland before moving to South Africa at the age of six with his father. Later in life, he returned to Great Britain, famously settling in London and the Scottish Borders.”
Frankly, for a second time, I don’t have the answer … it’s shirley some sort of mix of the two. Perhaps.

3. Tesco v Aldi
Thing with Sandy is that the minutiae of life are her concern and I don’t disagree but Nige will make everything better and our nasty remarks here are only about Lowe’s and Ben’s old-man-bitterness over some peccadillo. Nothing will change her view, certainly not new revelations, plus she seems to be a Reform middle-level worker, paid or not.

1. Op ed of sorts
The brief of this site has been to bring as many perspectives as possible through our contributors, inc. me. The overriding issue is that we can lead a horse to water but if he turns away from the water, not a lot can be done. We did our part. Also, just because someone skips over, turns away, could still well mean he/she plans to tackle things later.
IYE has been pursuing the Donny thing, Steve and DAD are bringing their range of current events, t’other chaps now and then, my two pursuits right now are “filioque clause” (pronounce it “fil ee o kwee”), coming up as a doc short after this post and also in last night’s Constantinople post item … plus a quick look at Lord Toby’s place, on Blair/Milipede, below, quoting The Telegraph:
“The former Prime Minister accused the Energy Secretary on Wednesday of pushing a “quixotic fantasy” and said that China, the world’s largest greenhouse gas emitter, did not care about his beliefs. Sir Tony made the remarks a day after launching an unprecedented attack on Sir Keir Starmer, claiming in a 5,700-word essay that the Prime Minister had no plan to fix Britain. … The intervention has piled further pressure on Sir Keir, who is expected to face a leadership challenge in the coming weeks after leading Labour to a historic local election loss.”
Historic local election loss? All right, I was chatting to my landlord and discussing the Reform/Restore thing. Starmer has pushed this Renters’ Agreement on landlords, on pain of a £7000 fine … govt is squeezing out private landlords thereby, and our LL is convinced that the fab Nige is about to lose due to the hated Lowe, when Nige and Burnham had been neck and neck and the fab Nige had been fighting a lone hand for The People … then along came Lowe.
Utter bollox, as I told him … that 43% guff was from the commissioned Survation, establishment poll with handpicked sample, dutifully written up in The Times and elsewhere in the MSM. Reform’s own polling shows that Restore are their main problem, not Burnham. As a political normie whose reality is from the MSM, whereas he’d say mine is from socmed, he ignored what I said and asked me to “get Restore to back off”, as the n1 issue is to stop Burnham.
In other words, despite all we present here to the contrary, people are still locked into the MSM indoctrination.
(1733) Something happened, probably this morning but I have no idea what. Laid out not able to freely breathe, circulation … coming out of it now. Might have been quiche, breads, coffee, meds, poisoned air, whatever. Need to find out by trial and error. Suspect it might be the eggs. It killed blogging for a few hours. Evening all by the way.
17. The night Christianity in its official form died
Sultan Mehmed II conquered Constantinople on May 29, 1453. The final stage of the battle was the night of May 28th.
Damascene moment here. Something or Someone suggested I go back to this youtube. Earlier in the afternoon, it suggested I look up Psalm 110 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psalm_110

12. Just reading 1394:3 from IYE
Interesting:
““The Gap in How America Detects Election Fraud I Found in the Epstein FilesElon Musk’s Ex Described the Satellites and the Vote Data. Why Do Both Seem to Lead Back to Jeffrey Epstein?”
”What “anomaly in the matrix” actually means
There is a mathematical technique called wavelet analysis that the NSA uses regularly, and it’s used to take a massive amount of data that looks like noise, like chaos, like a wall of sound where you cannot make out anything individual, and separates that data into layers so you can find a hidden signal that was completely invisible when everything was mixed together.”
11. Goes to show we never can tell
Was looking at Searchlight, the leftwing rag of Peter Hain etc. but if I want the dirt on Britain First, I need to go there. Ok apparently Jayden Franzen was Paul Golding’s squeeze, she left, citing brutality, then it was Ashleigh Simon, born and bred Salford gal. She was the one last evening (last post). I liked her voice and argument.
She apparently split from PG, is now independent. I think she’s more anti-rape-gang, leaning more to the Pink Ladies and Restore. Also, in last night’s, she looks a dish but Searchlight, natch, shows a pic from her well fed days.
The rise of the Psychopathic female is a cause for concern. The Karens of the world that generally have better drive than most normal women and therefore attain senior positions. Their psychopathy is severely affecting the major institutions of the West. It’s a facet of the woke suicidal empathy that has yet to be really identified and discussed.
JH: In sort, such women are trying to be men, have all the “privileges” they perceive men as having, plus minimise their responsibilities, always a man to do the job if necessary. Except there are fewer and fewer real men … the Fabians have seen to that in schools with the new Eloi, plus fertility down due to meds and lifestyle, the lack of available jobs. And so on … plus we then get invaded by fighting men from the never lands.

2. The baddies ALWAYS revert to the same playbook
I see the Weimar all over again, with useless socialists hamstrung by ideology, while the infrastructure goes to pot and all sorts of overrunning and behaviour goes on … and the response? Bleedin’ warning signs on roadsides. Not troops.
Even were there troops, there are no parents left of any youthfulness, only single mothers with no control over the spotty herberts.
And that comes back to no underpinning code any more … the Science is God lot, with zero idea how the universe really works, proposing soft, love-everyone Babylon solutions or heaven forbid … tech solutions, e.g. fantasy worlds in 4D. Even My Mate up the Road. a dyed-in-the-wool techie, knows that true tech innovation ended in the 90s … everything now is keeping vast armies of techies employed … university graduates, not hands-on oldies.
And the social fabric, regulated by the underpinning social code of Christendom? Gone.
What always appears in times of trouble? First the strongman, deeply flawed, with his own agenda, so easily recruited by the real enemy, the hidden perverted intellect … and the mass of godless humanity flock to that solution. “Right wing govts” are put in, they storm in.
However, a large number go the opposite way and the Trinity makes a resurgence, foreseen by the true baddies, who know this will happen, so they put charlatans in charge of official churches, from that rainbow one railing at Donny and entourage … even Pence and Johnson pretend they’re Christian … then that clown in Lambeth Palace, then the Chicago Fabian in Rome … and so it goes on.
Those who do know have no way of convincing the secularati. This post is mainly read by secularati … at least on the whole not wokerati, plus a percentage of the trad type who at least can see through all the BS, plus Kabuki theatre.
Back to specific cases:
Sigh. Any solution? I think so … for awhile. Yuri Bezmenov in the 80s said it would take two generations. So, if not Zoomers, then late Zoomers and early Alphas. But will it be biblical, or some mish mash of pop tech culture of 2030, with highsounding biblucal quotes. Which gets into Revelation territory. I wrote a 1500 page book called Masque which ended with a fanciful idea of Wills being the antiC, many false prophets, endless war fomented by “someone”. I finished that book around 2017.
Any humanist solution? They always believe in the perfectability of Man as his own god, pure Babel. Ends up as Sodom and Gomorrah. Techies? The great god AI of course. Then we have the Annunaki fans, always a good one … is it Rubio who’s ordered the releasing of data on aliens? Interesting timing, eh?
Anything except a metaphysical scenario … one can never admit a metaphysical scenario, in which we are but a physical component. Can’t be admitted by the intelligentsia coz it bgrs up The Philosophers … Plato, Kant, Nietzsche, Zarathustra … or we could go oriental … that’s respectable enough for the intelligentsia, in thrall, unwittingly, to the dark side.
And so the whole shebang goes on, everyone at each other’s throats, disdaining the others, nothing being done. Society paralysed.

19. Was not going to run any more, tonight
… of Brit politics or lovely ladies but just clicked on her clip and thought her voice was fab … there’s our future right there. Sorry to Reformers … it’s her voice, not the politics this evening:
In other news, Michelle Maxwell tweeted: “President Trump canceled tomorrow’s Camp David trip with the entire Cabinet, opting to have the meeting at the White House instead, due to “possible bad weather conditions.”
Sundance thinks this was a canary trap to find a leaker.
The news of Donald Trump’s planned Cabinet meeting at Camp David was first reported by Politico, from unnamed sources. Subsequent details were then published by the New York Post followed by CNBC and CBS News, later confirmed the planned trip through unnamed White House officials and sources familiar with the matter.
Trump came out the next day and said the trip was off.
So now we know people leaked to 4 different news organizations and gave them different details, not Trump. You tell different staff different details and then wait to see who leaks what to whom. BOOM.
That is a classic, highly effective counter-intelligence tactic known as a canary trap or “barium meal test.””

As I moved from the 50s films to the 60s, the fayre became more iffy, causing me to retreat to the 50s again for now:
The films became darker in among the up tempo music. First really dark film I recall was Lord of the Flies … there was one just now called pretty poison, with Tuesday Weld, playing to type (Lolita) … other films were nastily themed too. Then in the 70s came the open, slow motion gore and perversion … an historian could easily trace the descent in tone.
