Tuesday [16]

(1230) Afternoon all.

 

This is indefensible in any western nation:

Matters not if Brit, US, Canadian, Antipodaen, European nation

It’s an utter disgrace by globopsycho, criminal woke fabian communists, using the most useless women in order to get the internal conflagration going. It’s a direct challenge to all which is decent in the society, let alone being rank treason.

We had it here too of course, over N.I.

Where did the time actually go?

 


Bizarre thing how our generation, the Fairport part of it, chose to look hippy in England but there you go. Meanwhile, their powers of observation were commendable … that shot of those two from that generation before … so accurate, so respectably casual – her, so dressed down – him, with the slacks and jumper, no tie on business shirt.

Could have been my parents … it’s the parents who do my head in. I look back at ourselves then and think … well yes, all very nice and didn’t we have fun, eh? Sitting here with a cuppa and custard creams … we’re the oldies now. Just how long ago was their youth? War years? Just after?

My parents’ first tele … we knew a television repair man down the road. Mate and I, must have been holiday time, parents out, we called that TV man’s daughter … did she want to come and visit my place? Yes, on her way. Never got there … dad had heard the conversation … so we went and explored a new building site, with our string walkie-talkies.

Oh my goodness … getting senile here? Maybe but it was not my past of interest … it was theirs, our parents … that was where the real history had been made.

a) Rosa-Parks district in Paris (19th arrondissement): Mohamed and Mam claim to be poor warehouse workers… These two migrants, already convicted and banned from the country, are suspected of dealing ….

b) On April 3, 2026, France co-vetoed a United Nations Security Council resolution that would have authorised military force to reopen the Strait of Hormuz — and on the same day, the Malta-flagged CMA CGM Kribi, owned by the world’s third-largest container shipping line, completed its transit of the Strait after coordinating directly with Iranian maritime authorities and paying a $2 million toll in Chinese yuan….

c) Austria’s state broadcasting behemoth ORF has come under criticism for what regulators call its one-sided reporting on the Gaza war….

d) Paris (8th arrondissement): A Malian migrant received a suspended sentence for stealing Joan of Arc’s sword from a statue.  Unable to explain his actions, his lawyer pleaded for Christian forgiveness….

1. Tabling

From time to time, it’s needed for me to restate modus operandi and mention the nomenclature used here at nourishing unherdables on its various pages.

“Tabling” (or variation on the word) is a trigger for you, meaning the material was tabled somewhere in raw form across our pages, no further editing. In other words … “buried” … sometimes “in plain sight”, “en pleine”, sometimes cryptically. Always “sufficient”, “signposted” well enough to proceed.

Nero Wolfe used a term in “The Doorbell Rang” … that’s “reserved” … meaning it’s been tabled somewhere or in his case taken to a safe somewhere off premises. Quite like that term as it means it’s “raw data” intended for use but not “en pleine”.

In other words, it’s for fellow ferreters, with a brain, to dig out, using the usual signposts. For example some of Steve’s late offerings, this morning.

Remember too that for every blog, there’s a comments section. Each blog is also split into posts … and pages. Pages are not visible without a url. Therefore, it’s wise to save such a url for yourself for later retrieval, as page urls have this nasty habit of disappearing after half a day, meaning twelve hours.

Therefore, playing fair … I do not expect good readers to constantly check … traffic is of no interest to this blog, there’s not even a stat counter. This blog is for intelligent ferreters to retrieve from and use as they wish. That’s it.

Twelve hours is a fair rule of thumb to my mind … check twice a day, usually before 7 a.m. or before 7 p.m. and store the url somewhere. Today’s is called “have a good Tuesday”. /END.

Monday [16 till close of play]

(1620) Greetings again, all.

Excerpts:

a. Erika Kirk had never worked at TPUSA. Not as an employee, a consultant, or a contractor. Her background: Miss Arizona USA, a real estate license, a small faith-based clothing line, and a bible study program. She came with no executive experience or political operations background. 

The board said Charlie told people verbally that he wanted this, conveniently there was no documentation of any kind. When Candace Owens demanded they produce a video of Charlie saying it, they didn’t produce evidence. They produced a cease-and-desist letter.

b. Then: Boris Epshteyn. Trump’s personal attorney. And here’s the connective tissue: it was Epshteyn and Manafort who referred Trump to Blanche when he needed a criminal lawyer for the New York indictment.

April 2023, one day before Trump’s arraignment, Blanche joins the team. His law firm’s ethics committee said no so he quit the firm and started Blanche Law. A firm that, for all practical purposes, existed to service one client, Trump.
