Easy with hindsight to judge the Donald but equally, he has kept on very bad advisors. e.g. Matis, Kelly … assuming they weren’t his masters. And then this person … either naively incompetent … or else a she-devil.

A “Big Brother” drop this morning.
a) YouTube has restricted access within the European Union to a video from the Finnish programme Uusi Puheenaihe devoted to Chat Control, while the same recording remains available in countries outside the bloc….
b) Germany’s domestic intelligence agency could soon be authorised to secretly alter digital data, hack into private computers and mobile phones, enter homes without occupants’ knowledge, recruit 16- and 17-year-olds as informants, and never inform citizens that they had been subjected to surveillance.
c) The European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation (Eurocontrol) has moved to freeze funds owed to the Polish Air Navigation Services Agency (PANSA) to enforce a €1.3 billion Belgian court ruling against Poland in favour of the US drugmaker Pfizer.
d) The latest ABC headline tells us that Climate Change is becoming a major driver of child marriage across Asia and the Pacific. All those super cyclones and floods (that never used to happen) are killing the family chickens, see, and poor mothers can’t afford to keep their daughters.
e) The writer Renaud Camus [author of “The Camp of Saints” reported to the gendarmerie in Fleurance (Gers) to be questioned as part of proceedings initiated in Paris. The summons, received the previous month, had been issued by a public prosecutor and concerned two charges: racially motivated insult and incitement to violence and racial hatred….
(0652) Morning all. Troubles all over the place and we also have our share.
The state of play at the blog level
First signs have been at NOWP and you can read of those … yes, there was moderation bin at work it seems … the danger is that that’s the original site and has much in the engine room. It’s still working but as you can see from Andy’s attempts to post yesterday, which I misunderstood, there is some interference in the commenting system.
The weird situation is that HQ is under severe spam attack (think this involves lists to be attacked) but other than that, it’s in order.
Unless I leave this venue that is and even then, nothing is lost … it’s backed up … it’s just not plugged in. After losing NO, we always knew this would eventually happen. Safest two sites for our tavern complex for now are HQ and Jstack but even Jstack has bizarre issues of complication in the works … it’s near impossible to open and compose on, plus it keeps signing itself out. To get back in, I must go through a chain involving a different email, which actually eventually works just now.
To cut to the chase … NOWP does work, it seems to be requiring moderation … if our droppers can stand that for now, I’d still use it. Reason for attack? Pretty obvious … the targets, innit?
UHC-WP is in the same boat as NOWP, as a WP blog under their direct control, low storage space. Workable for now though.
Jstack does work as a convoluted process … it’s not designed as a news site, it’s for authors’ views, e.g. Dan Wootton, Nick Dixon. It’s designed as a traffic builder … we went through this long ago.
Recommendation from me? Still use things as they are if you feel you can, I just need to be more vigilant about NOWP.
(1635) Approacheth the evening. Very weary and it was interesting one of us just wrote and described my own weariness and aching. Plus others on X have been posting on it … across the west. Food, water, atmosphere … the running down of the west. The pace I’ve been setting I should be able to take in my stride … but this is something outside, alien. Yet my mood is buoyant because some great things are happening.

Before getting onto these, here’s IYE with what he could not get posted at NOWP:
Here’s Leah’s update for today which is what I was trying to leave
Actually, it’s up at NOWP but there’s certainly grief being given, esp. in Compose function right now. Also, check this:
Suddenly hit by masses of spam. Fun time at the ole blogs right now.
19. And now … comedy hour at the Beeb
18. Inspiration for DAD, from Toodles
17. And now … comedy hour with Andy
Yes, our witty, wacky patron of the tavern is doing his comedy rouine at 1439 right now.
16. Jade
I’d like to address openly that there are those I consider inner circle, obviously including our gang here, plus about four generally unsung, e.g. MMutR … but on X are those who are also special but still within X, fewer still who can DM me … I just went through removing the uninvited I did not keep there (logical?) … those people still there, plus non DMers, plus people I’m seen wishing good morning to … they mean a lot to me but they do not become “inner circle”, nor would they want as they’re ladies and would like to keep that respectable barrier there, whilst still occasionally lightly flirting in the open.
Jade is not one of those … she is a rape gang inquiry girl … the abuse stopped 10 years ago. She confesses she’s a mess, frightened still. Now, equally obviously … I would NEVER flirt with her, seeing her as a daughter type, supporting her with the occasional heart. Yet I’ll promote her case and I noticed this earlier:
Do yo see that word in her moniker … safe?

The Case Against Todd Blanche His confirmation hearing is Wednesday. Here is everything he has done to lie to us and cover things up, starting with Epstein.”
All right, viewers, we know what we’re getting here:
Target Earth was a typical product of 1950s-filmed science fiction but could never rise above its low budget underpinnings.[6] One of the few notable aspects of the production was that the film was one of the first to explore the subgenre of alien invasions, following the successes of George Pal‘s The War of the Worlds (1953) and William Cameron Menzies‘ Invaders from Mars (1953). Target Earth was also produced by Herman Cohen, making his producing debut, who would become one of the most prominent B movie producers of the 1960s.[7] Director Sherman A. Rose, who was a prolific editor in both television and film, would go on to make only two other films.[8][Note 1]
(1154) Apologies to readers … yes, there are things going on, preventing me blogging. Slowly at least. My mindset just now is not to miss anyone so slow does it.
