5. Pause and consider this, dear reader

Now, we have a few readers here who might be called “techies”, one or two in a major way. Developers and managers of the old kind, before the uni grad scriptkiddies took over near the end of the 90s. My experience of the old style techies, maybe from the early 80s, is that they shy away from the Ggl control and anti-user tactics, from Apple’s total control and post-Jobs $$$$ angle and MS’s control freakery and other things now.

Besides, these boys tend to be hands-on DIY. I’m what’s known as experienced or super-user whom techies get frustrated with, rightly so I fear … so our systems here are part wise techie, part just me finding ways aroubd, laterally.

One of those workarounds is to never go for All-in-Ones … keep it super-simple, manual, no java, no anything else afap. But it’s taken me two decades to get this far.

3. Therapist?

An “independent writer” named “Arthur Ellis” writes this at Lord Toby’s site:

“As a graduate living in London who is constantly juggling the usual mix of modern uncertainty, mental health walks have become essential to my routine.

My anxiety seems rather inevitable given that the only jobs in the whole city seem to consist of waiting tables or pouring pints, rent eats into most of my income and the dating scene is entirely based on pixels.

So, I begrudgingly began following my therapist’s advice and take myself for a daily walk, as if I’m some Labrador needing to smell the great outdoors. However, much to my nervous system’s dismay, my walks have begun having the opposite effect of relaxation.

As soon as I leave my overpriced-for-South-London flat, I find overflowing rubbish bins and empty baggies scattered along the pavements. I hear shouting between addicts and notice how the streets look more neglected than the mould in my bathroom grout. But this unpleasantness isn’t merely observational; I also have been yelled at by black-out-drunk strangers and, most dreaded of all by Londoners, had my phone snatched by boys in balaclavas.

One time, some pro-Palestinian protesters asked me to join the “resistance” and upon declining their offer, I was hit by a wave of verbal abuse about being a government puppet. Protesting is an integral part of democratic life; I myself have participated in plenty. But I’m also entitled to walk down the street without having to declare allegiance to a political cause. Safe to say that area has become a no-go zone for me.

My therapist and I often discuss how mental health is shaped by the world around us, not just the internal cogs of our brain. If my job feels like a pathetic excuse for a career, my rent is completely unaffordable and my street feels hostile, it’s no wonder I’m in therapy in the first place. Perhaps mental health can’t be ‘fixed’ with 10,000 steps if this is a wider societal issue.

When I opened up to my therapist about this, she told me that this feeling is called “anomie”: essentially a sense of disorientation that comes about when social values and standards disintegrate. Not only are we more politically polarised than ever, but so too are we socially. It’s as if we are blindly walking through life, ignoring the importance of “eyes of the street”, as Jane Jacobs famously coined as a term to describe the informal social fabric that helps people feel like public space belongs to everyone.

A healthy, functioning city depends on thousands of silent agreements between strangers every minute: do not steal, do not litter, do not intimidate. It seems like all of these behavioural codes have completely disappeared.

What worries me about London right now is how disconnected we all are…”

Where do we even start? Therapist? A man? Then again, it’s 2026. And the money to pay one of those? Or is it just a bit of journo creative writing? It reads to me very much as a girl in her 30s … girlish-man? What though if it really is a young man in his 20s? What chance “his lot” can now procreate their way out of this crisis? Hardly Danny Tommos or Charlie Downses. What warrior types? The female men today seem far more likely to do the Boadicea.

And then we get to the actual living in London. Possible? What about “mental health” walks? Given the state of the invaders en masse … is any sort of aimless walk in any major British city a viable proposition? As for me, there are certainly two tracks Can take if remaining vigilant and “sticking to the narrow rails”. Maybe.

What began as protests over school conditions and funding is entering its third week, and the factors behind the widespread, more violent protests are being debated.

b) France. At the François-Villon high school in Beaugency, a town in France’s Loiret department, students were filmed on October 1st, 2026 chanting rap lyrics that referenced Mohamed Merah, the Bataclan massacre, and Salah Abdeslam.

1. Trooble in Bama

Our Toodles here is in a real life situation, most likely this evening, our time (6 hour difference her side of the stateline, probably 5 if technically in Florida). One map puts the trooble as coming halfway from Mobile AL to Pensacola FL … my reading of the various maps Fri morn is that Toods would want (and she said it yesterday) it to be as far east as poss and … I’m thinking the main strike is just into Florida, yet the wind shadow is wide.

If so, it is still a very near think and she’s certain, with Cuddles, in the wind shadow … see for yourself, NBC first:

Now, with Toods as “one of ours”, I’m asking all our readers of the praying kind to do so for her … it’s the 10 mph fwd motion of the hurricane which puts everyone under such stress, as if there were not enough stress.

But here we come back to the subject of Faith, do we not? You’d need to believe prayer efficacious, possible to have a combined effect … in order for it to do that.

This is no time, today, to run the comment by flaxensaxon on the low moral fibre of the old testament players … I’ll wait till Toods is safe tomorrow before attempting that.

(1655) Almost evening all.

Some news from the land down under..

Will One Nation reverse Australia’s ‘mortmain migration’ system? | https://www.noticer.news/one-nation-immigration-mortmain-migration/

A link from the article goes to this fascinating piece:

Mortmain Migration | https://www.aporiamagazine.com/p/mortmain-migration

From it is the following on post-war industrial history, which I studied as a university degree module:

British mill towns

Britain had its largest sustained economic boom in history in the decades after WWII (though it was smaller than elsewhere in the Western bloc thanks to the democratic socialism of the Attlee government and its successors). A consequence of this boom was the decline of Britain’s labor-intensive textile industry, which lost out to cheaper imports from lower wage and/or more technologically sophisticated countries.

The textile industry could have invested in new machinery or come up with new organizational models to boost productivity. This is how the British textile industry was built in the first place, with historically positive consequences for Britain and the world at large. Alternatively, the government could have used some combination of subsidies and trade barriers to keep out foreign competition, or simply allowed the industry to decline in favor of imports, which is what happened eventually anyway. Instead, the textile industry lobbied for, and acquired, the ability to hire from the newly-independent Indian subcontinent, especially the Mirpur province of Pakistan – to lower wages.

This labor migration allowed Britain’s textile industry to preserve its organizational and technological status quo for a few years. But only for a few years. Temporarily suppressing wages did not stop the industry from contracting by two thirds between 1950 and 1970, and it was practically gone by 1980.

Britain paid, and continues to pay, a steep price for a few more years of keeping obsolete factories in business through migration rather than direct subsidies or more ordinary protectionism. The Pakistani diaspora created by this instance of mortmain migration is the source of Britain’s euphemistically-termed “grooming gangs,” really ethnic- and clan-based rape gangs, responsible for a very large though unknown number of rapes going back to the 1950s (roughly 1400 victims, most of whom had been raped many times, in Rotherham alone between 1997 and 2023). Some of the rapists are explicitly motivated by racial revenge on the English – not that equal-opportunity rape would be excusable – and their crimes were concealed and aided by British institutions such as social workers, police, local governments and the media out of anti-racist ideology.

(The Yugoslav War-like atrocities committed by Pakistani rape gangs in Britain, perhaps the worst in any Western country since World War II, are far from the only problem caused by this particular migration wave. The standard issues of welfare use, clannish ethnic networks taking over local institutions, forging alliances with the political left, and general ethnic conflict turning all issues into a cold race war, are present as well. Even without the rape gangs, creating the Pakistani diaspora would still have been a huge mistake for Britain)

13. Penseivat

… a retired policeman’s take on Gosport etc.

‘I’m afraid any counterpoint of mine may not calm others as much as hoped. I have been retired from my county force (now a service) for over 20 years and it often seems like a different profession to the one I spent half of my working life in. I still believe that majority of coppers are doing what they are supposed to be doing, protecting life, preventing crime, arresting offenders and, through the CPS, prosecuting them, and preventing breaches of the Police.

However, times, and society has changed. A Police officer’s allegiance is to the Crown, not a political party, but recent events have, in my opinion, brought political influences into the way Police officers carry out their role. For whatever reasons, one group of protesters can parade through the streets without arrest, while another group face arrest and prosecution. Why is this?

Operational order are given out by very senior officers, but those operational orders are, allegedly, drafted and written by the Home Office, or other politically motivated departments. This may be why those demanding the destruction of Israel, and displaying terrorist flags can do so, while others, protesting about what they see as an invasion of this country which may put their families at risk are not allowed to do so.

I am not saying that one group is bad and one group is good, but there have been rumours of the second groups having people deliberately placed in them to stir up or invite trouble (slightly off topic, a recent report from the USA suggests that FBI members were in the 6th of July crowd in Washington, encouraging protesters to break into the buildings.

If agitators, acting on political instructions, can do that in America, then there is no reason why it can’t, and doesn’t, happen here). If that is happening, it often gives the opinion, rightly or wrongly, that the Police in general are politically motivated.
There have been reports of individual incidents where the Police, apparently get it wrong, and I would suggest it’s down to training and instructions from senior ranks.

One recent newspaper article was about a woman being harassed by two men of a particular hue, and she was so concerned, she phoned 999, and was Apparently advised that her use of the words, “filthy migrants” could cause offence. If this really did happen, then I would suggest the attending Police officer should be given more training.

While on the subject, may I comment on YouTube videos where so called auditors video Police officers reacting to an incident they have staged, such as deliberately walking around and fiddling the outside of Police stations, looking into parked Police vehicles, or recording Police officers in their private cars. This usually leads to people in uniform coming to ask why these numpties are doing this (and In the current security situation, perhaps these requests are reasonable)?

There are two views I have on this. Either these people are out to deliberately get a reaction from Police in order to show them in a bad light, claiming they know their rights (but not apparently, their responsibilities), or the uniformed people are actors so that the video YouTube blogger can obtain more views, and more money.

There will no doubt that many may disagree with me, and I’m ok with this. That is what free speech and debate is all about.
Finally, when the media is full of reports that the nasty Police arrested a man purely because he shouted, “I love bacon” outside a mosque (was that the only offence he committed?), the grandson of an ex colleague, himself a Police officer, stopped a stolen car and discovered a kidnapped child in the back. Not a peep in the media. Possibly because he was ‘a nasty Policeman’.

12. DAD corner

a) Pakistan has entered the air war against the Houthis. A senior Pakistani military official confirmed to The New York Times that Pakistani fighter jets are participating in airstrikes against Houthi forces in Yemen.

A second Pakistani official said Islamabad’s involvement is focused on providing air support against Houthi missile and drone threats, rather than launching a ground offensive inside Yemen. The development comes as Saudi Arabia intensifies its military campaign against the Iran-backed group.

Pakistan’s reported participation marks a significant expansion of its role in the conflict. What began as a commitment to help defend Saudi Arabia now appears to include direct combat operations, raising the stakes for Islamabad and increasing the number of countries involved in Yemen’s renewed fighting.

b) Knights Templar (non-Masonic)

(1158) Afternoon all. (1215)

 

Let’s start here

IYE: “ SDNY COURTHOUSE, Sept 3 – A woman named Victoria Drake on September 3 filed a lawsuit against Paolo Zampolli in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, where Inner City Press found it. It is SDNY Case Number 26-cv-7582, and Inner CIty Press has published it on its DocumentCloud…..”

https://innercitypress.com/sdny46docketsdrakevzampolliicp090326.html

Zampolli according to the current 1st Lady is responsible for introducing her to Donny. He is currently US Special Representative for Global Partnerships.

Toodles: Yes! PZ is a real rascal. He had handled a model who bore him a son. She was 17 when he brought her to NYC. She was from Brazil. I am thinking at some point they moved to Miami and according to her they were married.

That relationship followed a previous relationship with another model – Hungarian. 

It was not a pretty situation. She and MT had been friends I think when they both arrived in America. It could have been the other one. However MT and the Brazilian had become friends. 

They stayed friends for years until the Brazilian left him. The Tps were friendly and socialized I believe with PZ and his handled bride. After leaving him the result has been disastrous for her the last I heard. Sad. 

From what I can tell from the link IYE, PZ must have custody of the son🫤. 

He was friends with Geoffrey Eppypen. 

Is it true about bird’s of a feather? 🤷🏻‍♀️ I hope not! 🙏

IYE: Andy, I’d like to see the job description for a “Special Representative for Global Partnerships”! The NU is a cover for many things I suspect.
I followed the A U story via Bekah Day, Toodles. Some friend MT turned out to be. I’m not sure but I think the custody battle for the son is still ongoing.

Onto business….
I’ve been following the AU case via Bekah Day.

Degrees of separation, Toodles. If you scroll down the photos there’s Ms Tiffany T.

PZ connections to 🔽
https://redactedreport.substack.com/p/the-tate-brothers

Toodles: Odd? Yep. Very odd indeed. Maybe more on that as it just ties into those who are curiouser and curiouser about all the junk going on in the world.

I saw something about TT’s mama in one of those shorts the tuba of uba features sometimes… a one Mla Maybels. 

In it she was almost heralded as real darling. Why? ‘Cause she really loved ‘him’. Who cares if she was a home wrecker? Who cares he participated in wrecking the life of the mother of his family N1? In an ancient clip MMpls looked adoringly at him, but he didn’t return the adoration. About her he was dour. I actually recall that interview way back when.

Anyoleway, it was said he already had ‘you know who’ in the wings. And yes, my friend, you are right about the DoS ! 

Things are getting interestinger and interestinger! 

Back to MT and her not being a good friend to her supposed friend who had model thingies in common with her. In fact, it is implied that she was a bad friend. Maybe the link will say or allude as to why. Perhaps she is just not a nice person. Perhaps she had to behave as she did towards the Brazilian lovely posing girl or she might get in hot water herself.🧐
So many variables. Mystery! 😉

IYE: “All is not what it seems” Indeed. Is it ever?

As for US >UK extradition I doubt it will happen any time soon.

https://blog.6kbw.com/posts/this-lopsided-treaty-is-the-us-uk-extradition-treaty-imbalanced

And here’s another reason why their extradition will stall.

“ Recent commentary surrounding Barron Trump has taken a troubling turn, notably because of his peculiar connections to the Tate brothers, prominent figures embroiled in serious legal issues. Andrew and Tristan Tate, both known for their controversial online presence, are facing sex trafficking allegations that have rocked their fanbase and beyond.…”

Trying to escape folic acid (and bovaer)

… while still buying from UK supermarkets. An increasingly difficult task with so much subterfuge going on.

Starting here:

Morrisons sell one bread sourced from a private baker afa customers can know … Jason’s. Here it is:

Clearly labelled wholemeal all over the packet but it also mentions ciabatta … so I’m expecting wholemeal ciabatta:

Note Arla Foods there (bovaer peddlers). Also note the front label:

Read the fine print below. “Meets”? At this stage, I ask … do all UK food customers have to go through forensic investigation, just to ensure non-toxic nutrients, esp. when the firms show not the slightest interest in providing pure foods? Is it unreasonable to demand non subterfuge and non adulteration?

And demand it where? In the MSM? In parliament or congress? Hardly. Obviously only on socmed. What of all the other poor sods in society?

It’s magic here at dusk where, just before, slashes of sunlight from somewhere suddenly illuminate the surrounding buildings, brickwork, in a golden reddish glow. Can’t think of a better word than “magic”.

And then there’s the dawn, from dark to sunbathed:

Crescent moon I see. The moon likes to hang around outside my kitchen window … you’d think it would have a home to go to somewhere. Just watching it all throughout the day at intervals … even the tides are interesting through the sunroom window or Manchester through the bedroom window.
