(1446) Afternoon all.

 

16. Splendid isolation

Warren Zevon (died 2003) was an acquired taste … did not set the world on fire and yet there’s a cult feel to his work … the big musos all seemed to like him, Letterman was a fan … I saw this song played on Letterman, using the house band. Good stuff.

You know why I like reaction videos of the old numbers? Why so many females? I like those without egos, with integrity inside, who can feel … there are dozens who are rubbish in my book, male or female. About a dozen all up seem to have something to them. I was thinking … just play the song itself, nostalgically?

Nah … I want that interaction, discovery, surprise from another human. She herself was talking about wanting space to herself, he was singing about still wanting to wake up with someone beside him. Between Warren and her was a nice living pattern. Leaving aside faith for a mo, there are still limits to what we can psychologically handle. I’m known as a hermit but readers know I’m connecting with someone or another all day, everyday. Bored? Lonely? Chance would be a fine thing. Gregarious … and yet an isolate.

That’s what this song is all about.

15. There’s a real edge to all this now

All the western antiWoke, antiGlobo, anticommunist, antiFabian forces are in a resurgence but the Achilles heel of “the right” has always been that their inability to combine … they’re unherdable cats. We’re unherdable cats. But all sorts of people are seeing the extant danger now in the west and are meeting, as above. The establishment did think they had it sussed … attack Farage as long as he stayed on tele and lose badly to him in a GE, thereby retaining control.

But this was new … 10 out of 10 for Restore in GY, just an idea people wanted to back, no slick pollies … and there have been early issues … Saskiagate was one. Restorers are strange people, blunt and noneffusive in many ways, dark sense of humour … and very young, a new breed … Gen X and Gen Zee dominate … most interesting model indeed.

Who’ll win Makerfield? Who knows? Could still be the pretty boy or Burnham … Rebecca is everything a politician isn’t. But Restore is nothing if not ornery, contrary and many really, really like her as she runs the campaign her way, the party trying to promote her. I for one really like her and so many others do too.

Will she win? Who knows? She’ll be more experienced as a branch organiser. Fallings out? Naturally … we’re unherdable. Getting personal … she’s not a classic beauty, not a classic shape … so … bleedin’ … what?

And you know, ditto with the girl in Sat 16 in a few moments. Thus I like her a lot.

Fascinating, even gripping tale tomorrow morning after the news … so many elements lift it out of the ordinary, e.g. real audio of the events, recorded.

For good reason this video of Frank Wright’s pavement talk with Vox Populi went viral last week..

We Need to Save the Nation | Restore Britain, Makerfield

| https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvNYFtbOl5g

Now he’s on The Peter McCormack Show:

Frank Wright joins me after going viral for saying that reality, not extremism, is radicalising people.

In this episode, we discuss Britain’s decline, the failure of liberal democracy, Restore, Reform, immigration, national identity, working-class dignity, debt, inflation and why Frank believes Britain is facing a final chance to Restore itself.

Frank argues that people are not being radicalised by fringe ideology, but by what they can see around them: institutions that no longer work, town centres in decline, a political class that cannot govern, an economy hollowed out by debt and dependency, and a media system that tells people not to trust their own eyes.

I push Frank on: what it means to Restore Britain, why nationhood matters, how you build a big enough tent, how we avoid conflict, and whether our political system is even capable of fixing itself.
Whatever you think of Frank, he has clearly touched a nerve.

Making Plans for Nigel

How can you tell if someone is a heavy drinker but tries to hide it?

Those people who consume large amounts of alcohol and try to conceal it usually succeed in their efforts until one knows how to recognize the signs. One of the most evident symptoms is related to the odor of alcohol that may manifest not only on the person’s breath but also on his or her skin during mornings or after sweat. If somebody consumed too much alcohol overnight, it would be possible to detect its smell even several hours later regardless of brushing of teeth or application of perfume.

It is worth paying attention to people’s behavior concerning alcohol consumption in social settings. Those individuals who drink alcohol heavily but try to hide it would volunteer to take orders for everybody, drink quickly in comparison with others, and become nervous in case there is no alcohol available at the event. In addition, such people would often undervalue their consumption, speaking about “just a glass or two,” while their behavior demonstrates other results. Moreover, people who consume large amounts of alcohol recover from it quickly since they have developed some tolerance to it, which takes years to build.

The physical signs of hidden alcohol abuse accumulate gradually. Visible symptoms such as persistent redness or broken blood vessels on the nose and cheeks, unexpected weight gain in the middle of their body, puffiness or yellowness around their eyes in the morning, and shaking hands before the first glass of alcohol in the morning are clear signs. The person may also frequently complain about sleeping poorly, problems with their digestion, or suffering from headaches, which are typical results of long-term alcohol abuse but will be explained by other causes.

Behavior-wise, the person is likely to be evasive about the topic of drinking alcohol. They may try to laugh it off, try to change the subject, or even get irritated. One should also pay attention to the fact that the person always finds a reason to drink alcohol – either because of a stressful week, a celebration, or any other personal matter since it makes it easier for them to deny that it is a habit.

In case someone notices these signs in a close friend or relative, it is highly recommended to seek help in online communities and forums where people openly discuss their own experience of dealing with medical problems related to excessive alcohol consumption.
