(1729) Evening all. February 3rd, 1959.

 

13. The day the music died …

But February made me shiver
With every blogpost I’d deliver
Bad news on the doorstep
I couldn’t take one more step

12. Steve corner

a. At 1283:

• Hearts of Oak: Stewart Rhodes – Oath Keepers: J6 Reflections & Defending American Freedoms

b. War Room

• Mike Davis: I Didn’t Watch The Grammys; It’d Be More Fun To Go To An Insane Asylum, But I’d Say This: Who Cares What These Hollywood People Think? We The People Demand That Our Border Is Secure!

• Peter Schweizer: The Head Of The Mexican News Agency Openly Admits: “We Are Quietly Carrying Out The Reconquest Of Our Territories The US Took From Us In 1848

• Captain James Fanell: Don’t Be Misled; Xi Jinping Is More Powerful Than Ever. There Are Many Rumors Floating Around The Chinese Leadership That Are Not Based Upon Fact

• Natalie Winters: Following The Radical Changes In China’s Central Military Commission, You Must Look Closely At Two Factions: The Younger Generals Who Want To Invade Taiwan As Soon As Possible And The Older Guard, Who Is A Bit More Hesitant

• Chad Mizelle: If you work in government and can’t follow the wishes of the duly elected president of the United States, then you need to leave!

• Dr Bradley Thayer: The EU Just Murdered Western Civilization

(1615) It’s been one of those insane days, inc. long talk with MMutR, from which came four topics for the blog, plus cooking up days of food, plus washing. Because of all the lost time today, evening’s festivities will kick off at 1730, ok. (1653)

 

11. The Trigger

This topic is partly Shona and Watch if for Days (a Columbo episode review), pistols v revolvers, plus this idea of sudden triggering, even after a very long time.

Shona … this is a gal whose voice many find listenable and endearing, plus we admire her deep dive research, just as with Grifty imho. For me, it’s a pity her topic is old Columbo episodes but they’re her interest, so there we are.

The murder itself, bringing in suppressors, revolvers and pistols, I need not address, as Shona does it, plus some commenters. The bit I’d like to address is what MMutR mentioned … that sometimes a sudden decision is based on some longheld resentment or a lingering dislike or whatever, but nothing actually happens for maybe twenty years, then suddenly it does … maybe terminally.

MMutR used the example of an Azimov story I think it was where a long time Gardener, defender, all round useful chap, was going to be promoted by the Emperor, the Gardener did not want, he was happy as Gardener, as it got him outdoors. Now he’d be stuck inside with those sorts of people.

He begged the Emperor, the Emperor in his regal, OTT way, said no, you deserve no less than this promotion, the Gardener killed him.

All right, to the Trigger in the Columbo. The PA, helper, offsider, campaign manager, told the Senator (at 8:43) it would be done Y way, the Candidate wanted Z way. The CM said nope, I’ve looked after you till now, have always done it well, we’re doing it my way.

The look on the Candidate’s face should have been the warning, but worse was to come. The CM turned upon going through the door and said something like: “I know where the bodies are hidden.”

Er. Um. 😳

The rest you can guess. Shona goes on to talk about the sound of suppressed guns.

I have a short tale from today. There is a raped girl on X and we mutually follow. She is right down on Rupert Lowe for wanting to head this inquiry, she virtually says he’s a megalomaniac toxic male type. Anyway, she likes Kemi’s manner, plus Nige is soft too, she’s thinking of rejoining the Tories.

Er. Um. 😳

I had a think, thought I’d distance myself from her, went into X … gulp … she’s reposted something I reposted, with a heart.

Er. Um. 😳

Sudden change of plan … do nowt, stay shtum. My next thought was hmmmmm, I need to be a bit careful with our unherdable chaps here … what if I trigger one of you? 🫢 Chapesses too! ☺️

 

When the body of a man nicknamed “Cock Robin” is found with an arrow in the heart on an archery range along with a chess bishop as a clue, Philo Vance investigates.

“”The Bishop Murder Case” is one of the best in the Philo Vance film series. The mystery seems a bit silly at first when children’s nursery rhymes are used by the perpetrator of the crimes to publicize his murders, not unlike methods used by present-day serial killers. But once the plot unfolds the nursery rhyme angle makes complete sense. The Bishop is a key figure in solving the mystery as the title indicates. So keep your eyes focused on that clue. I won’t say any more except to add that this is a complex mystery.

Basil Rathbone is second only to William Powell in breathing life into S.S. Van Dine’s famous private investigator. It’s obvious from this performance why Rathbone was chosen at the end of the decade to play Sherlock Holmes. The other actor who shines in this movie is Roland Young. Though much of the acting hearkens back to the silent era which was coming to an end, Rathbone and Young seem modern in their approach. From playing on stage and in silent pictures, actors were used to wild exaggerations and outlandish gesticulations which were no longer needed now that movies could talk. Several of the characters in “The Bishop Murder Case” have not yet adjusted to working with sound. Not so Rathbone and Young.

Another early talky distraction for modern viewers is the absence of music for dramatic effect. Since live music was used to accentuate the silent screen action and mood, it seems strange that music was not immediately utilized for the same purposes on the talky screen. Producers were misinformed that music coming from nowhere would puzzle and confuse the audience. So it took a few years for Hollywood to rid itself of this misconception. The decision not to use music plus fairly primitive sound effects (the viewer will readily recognize the sound of thunder as the sound of huge sheets of metal being snapped)take away from the overall effects of this otherwise clever and well-written murder mystery.”

………..

JH: Pity they did not disabuse themselves of late, of the now accepted notion that one must, as a documentary maker, shove in way too loud “mood” music to ruin the narration.

(1226) Afternoon all … there’ve been some tasks I had to take care of. (1259)

 

10. What on earth could this mean?

9. Moosh corner

8. Something does not add up

7. IYE, but only in the most alleged way of course

Blind item. 

https://www.crazydaysandnights.net/2020/11/blind-items-revealed-2-anniversary-month_13.html

Allegedly of course.

(1024) Just re-awoke and have to say either the Good Lord is looking after me or the ole bod itself. Don’t recall the last time I slept from 0650 to 1020 but am not saying no, thank you kindly. Continued in Tuesday 6 …

 

6. Being pushed into doing things

There are various ways to stop the bstds imposing their sh*** on us and this from Python was one:

Bureaucrat: Good. Out of the door. Line on the left. One cross each. Next. Crucifixion?
Eric Idle: Ah, no. Freedom.
Bureaucrat: What?
Eric Idle: Er, freedom for me. They said I hadn’t done anything, so I could go free and live on an island somewhere.
Bureaucrat: Oh. Oh, well, that’s jolly good. Well, off you go, then.
Eric Idle: Naa, I’m only pulling your leg. It’s crucifixion, really.

Except that the bureaucrat (remember “the banality of evil” whereby the directive is to make life a misery for the human before you … it’s in the Standing Orders … and so first torture, then kill the miscreant should he fail to happily comply) … the bureaucrat then calls over the head guard who has carte blanche to do whatever he wishes.

I woke up just now to Apple trying yet again to update to that awful 26 version many bright people are flatly refusing … no way I’m giving them my financial details … but they’re presenting it now such that it’s a fait accompli, we have it in hand …

No you bloody well don’t, you bstds. I’m not doing it. End of. So those two panels, one saying Update Now or Update Tonight, don’t apply. So I click out and go to my other ipad.

Bring on the punishments for noncompliance.

………..

Comments thread

Each of the sites your humble blogger writes at has its own system of commenting … half a decade ago, I understood that a “forum” is not the way to get any for’arder in increasing knowledge for various reasons.

One is the ideological idiocy of half the population, as exemplified in Minneapolis of late but there’s an added second factor … trolling, paid or unpaid. It’s designed to get in the way, to obstruct learning.

Plus there’s my own mindset … I’m there to learn, not to lecture. Yes, as blogger, I have to choose topics … many suggest themselves, so do readers … but it’s my job to dig a bit, find out, present. 

I then rely on readers, e.g. Mark Matis, James Wilson, to add to the story, maybe even put an angle I might not have seen. The model is not “adversarial camps”, as in assemblies and in academia, but more that we’re in a room with a table … and on that table we put what we’ve found.

Readers then can decide for themselves which make sense now, which later, which never at all. The thing which will destroy that meeting of minds is someone with an agenda, e.g. the Wokerati, the Fabian, the chip on the shoulder Hostile.

Therefore, at our other sites, Wokery and Globopsychosis do not find a platform. Any new commenter is welcome to add sane takes on what’s happening but if he/she is clearly a woke nutter … bye bye.

Even within our own “80% in the same direction folk”, there is that 20% which two people will disagree on. For example, this morning, on X, there’s a raped girl from grooming gang days who does not like Rupert Lowe as a leader … maybe as he’s a strong, “toxic male”, who knows?

Thing is, reader … it’s going to happen, innit? There’s no way to make everything idyllic but there are some moves, as mentioned above, which at least make commenting and replying possible.

a) The Grande Replacement is followed by the Grande Déclassement. After five years of Hollande and eight years of Macron, France has now fallen below the European average in terms of GDP per capita. This gradual decline has accelerated over the last decade.

b) The first three items on FdeSouche this morning … Vernon, Bobigny and Paris 7 arr.

c) Some good news. Inflation in France remains strikingly low compared with the rest of Europe, according to official data released January 6. The gap is largely explained by France’s subdued wage growth and cheaper energy.

d) nietspE also affects the French establishment. Between emails, villas and offshore deals, the enduring links between Jack Lang and Jeffrey E….

(0535) Greetings, all, a bit late due to posting this:

https://orphansofliberty.blogspot.com/2026/02/the-countryside-is-for-our-people-plus.html

… covering the “countryside less white” over there, the “elite” devilry here in this post. (0607)

 

To every thing, there is a season

There are times too early to say things and one is called a “whackjob”, there are times, much later, when suddenly everyone sees it (or wishes not to) but far from being seen as sages, no one knows we’d even been been fighting it.

Yes indeed. I for one laboriously, boringly, buried Grifty’s deep dive on Airmiles, Sarah and the two girls and then tried to explain that to you, the reader. It was not yet time for a writer in Britain to touch the story of those two now twisted girls.

Now it is … almost time anyway.

Oh, it was far more than that, Andrew, if you had seen Grifty’s report. This one though is still a tad too early:

More on that one as it unfolds. Never forget Heath and Morning Cloud either … or is it too early for that one too? This is by Canadian Sarah but it still applies across the west:

Is it too early to mention Whoopee Goldberg and that Hannibal Lecter skull job? We shall wait.

(1438) A local issue here. (1514)

 

No solution?

I’d planned a post tomorrow on Gorton and Denton (Manchester) because it’s the first real head to head and it illustrates the impossibility of the situation … going to write it here instead.

But first, Steve on Reform:

The Reform problem – may not be a problem at all, come 2029..

The British civil war has already started” | David Starkey Talks… to David Betz | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vcHTYtm7mo

My remarks below now are made on the understanding that you watched that interview … mine are in terms of the upcoming Gorton and Denton by-election.

Gorton and Denton is a constituency of the House of Commons in the Parliament of the United Kingdom, which came into being for the 2024 general election, following the 2023 review of Westminster constituencies.^[2] Since 2024, it had been represented by Andrew Gwynne, who was MP for Denton and Reddish from 2005 to 2024. On 22 January 2026, Gwynne submitted his resignation.^[3] A by-election will be held on 26 February 2026 to fill the seat.^[4]

Gwynne was Labour. It looked to be a Labour constituency but then Granny Harmer got in by a manipulated result by the Uniparty as a whole … kabuki theatre one could say. Gwynne made naughty remarks in The Beloved Leader’s eyes and here we are. Beloved Leader is not fond of Corbyn.

Right … a few hours ago, polling was saying Greens would just pip Reform. Now, Reform has the antiRight Goodwin as its candidate … he is on record being against Leave in the Referendum and anti anything basically Right. Now he’s making opposite noises, though they’re still refusing to endorse deportation or remigration, ending benefits for scroungers etc.

Were there preferential voting, the combined Uniparty would sweep it … near 100% (inc. Reform) but suddenly, there is an issue for the Uniparty. A few days back, Advance entered the fray with a local boy there, a rightwinger in Nick Buckley, whose past was in helping the homeless, inc. the forces homeless.

Naturally, Reform are apoplectic, “splitting the vote on the right” they cry, when actually, Reform are not on the right with those policies at all … it is Uniparty status quo enabling. Buckley though is full on Right … the only candidate there who is.

The chances of anyone opposed to the vast Uniparty army of normies, lefties, psychos, bought people actually taking power is slim, though FPTP does help.

There are many on the antiBaddies (at this stage, only Advance) side who cannot see any way to vote the country’s recovery into being. Which is precisely what the Baddies want (the psychos manipulating them all) … they WANT civil war, they’re ready with their fighting age men, murderers and rapists, weapons stashed in religious buildings up and down the country.

And that’s where we are in Britain right now, with this by-election coming up.

(1406) Afternoon all.

 

I’ve sought some advice how best to present this. It needs more than to be left in comments but by the same token, I see it as different to the previous Grifty on the subject. The previous one she handled by leaving the last ten minutes silent, with no comment by her but she ran emails and other things which point to Airmiles’ daughters as well as to him. By definition, S is implicated.

I buried it because of something one commenter under the site linked above said. He/she asked why is (Airmiles) getting it in the neck, when there’s not been one arrest in (your own) country? No holds barred taking down our royals … no one over there touched. That was the gist.

I would say there’s good reason for me to hit “miscreants” across the pond whilst someone like Grifty, over there, hits our miscreants here. The previous Grifty item on the topic went for the children of Airmiles directly as perps. This one here goes mainly into Airmiles, S, Nietspe and fixer friend.

Of course it involves children … the whole business does … and not just 17 and 3/4 Giuffre types but actual chn … pre-p … plus those chn were from many countries … trafficked. Turkey was mentioned.

It was also far easier for me to name and shame those in Belgium than it would have been in this country.

.o0o.

Moving on, IYE warned of a certain lady HERE and again HERE. That’s fine … now let’s do a deep dive on George Bailey, just to tie off the loose ends.
