(0859) September Quarterday: “A quarter day is one of four traditional dates in the year when periodic payments like commercial or residential rent, school fees, and servants’ wages traditionally become due.” It’s also some people’s birthdays I know. Morning all. (0943)

 

The great nothingness

Going to combine two things in this opener after three sleeps … first is what YT have just done or whoever the scriptkiddies are.

As you could guess, reader/watcher … the “YT recommended front page” is ordinarily a good guide, a good vault to dip into for posts, which have slowly been honed over months, videos which might interest you.

Suddenly, some toerag has wiped them all and instead has flooded the page with sheer shlock, running to hundreds of videos. Not only that but in the worst YT style from the last few years … gauche, sensationalist and even vile images, MSM style text in loud lettering … “n5 will shock you most” … on topics I’d never be interested in in my worst nightmares.

Suddenly … that’s the overriding word here. I had to waste half an hour just now blocking, removing and even then, there’s very little of interest to us, judging by your visits here. So the question is … what toerag or jerk did this and why?

Which brings me onto generations and before I even start, you know where this would be headed. In fact, one of the younger set I’ll quote below … you know of her, I’ve also said a few times I think she’s maybe the prettiest pundit in Britain.

“Dont want IT there.” It. The word was “it”. Think what indoctrination has been done on these young women but also think of the almost complete capture of men by porn these days. And my next question is … who are the people in charge of porn empires? Think of their demographic in most cases.

Thinking back to those hundred or so videos on youtube I just blocked … yes, it was the gauchery for sure, low moral compass .. but it was something else as well … low aesthetic sense, leaving morality aside for now. On X, there are constant comparisons in architecture and elegance being made by many accounts, there is Moo corner here … again you get the general idea.

Within that argument is the ornate versus the minimalist. I’m not one way or the other, as long as minimalist does not become brutalist and ornate does not become rococo. It’s not unlike a man wearing a tweed jacket with striped shirt and polkadot tie … I’ve seen that in London a bit.

I mean … shirley there’s some middle ground, n’est-ce-pas?

 

(0600) The main post of the day, on Fairford, inc. Steve’s updates, is up at Orphans and at Jstack. Sorry, but must now put up a short and then try for a third sleep, last one was rubbish. Maybe resume at 0900. (0620)

a) England. Lib Dem-run Spelthorne Borough Council in Surrey has decided ‘he’ and ‘she’ are too much for some people and is telling staff to use ‘they’ and ‘them’ instead. The Telegraph has more……

b) France: the Pope’s visit. Finally passed by the French Parliament on July 15, 2026, the right to assisted dying represents an “anthropological rupture” for the Church in France and the Vatican. 

“It is impossible to consider the act of causing death as normal,” stated Léon XIV on Sunday, September 27, 2026, in Lourdes—firmly insisting, just months after France adopted a law establishing a right to assisted dying, that “what is legal is not necessarily moral.”

c) France. National Rally wins ‘historic victory’ in French Senate elections

The party has three senators whose terms were not up. Nine RN names were added on Sunday, and two UDR seats in the Alpes-Maritimes.

d) Israel expels Dutch diplomats over settlement goods ban.

Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar announced the decision on Sunday, once The Hague’s ban on settlement goods had entered into force.

e) What you need to know about Russia’s new Geran-4 Drone. (JH: YouTube over there … most interesting.)

(0357) A bit of logistics here … I awoke an hour ago, need part two of sleep. Shall post this then crash again if you don’t mind. Take up the cudgel again maybe 0730 to 0800. (0409)

(1642) Nearly evening all.

 

21. October and November are not my fave months

… but the season they usher in is … plus half the following season.

20. This is possibly the definitive X post of this year in history

19. Moo corner

18. Sydney Jones is a young, strange one

… but very much now of our politics, once pro-trans. She mentions an indi photographer who, like Nick Shirley, gets into places … this one photographs boats taking off from France for example.

Some unscrupulous onliners are simply rerunning his shots as theirs. A real no-no. Attribution, people … attribution.

17. Yes, you read that right … ham, as in the meat

… they are way out of control now, these people, utterly mad.

16. DAD in two places

No,16 I wish to change the penultimate sentence to…..

Could it be that the ‘Famous Five’ were just stealing/selling illegal fuel to farmers?

 

Not all episodes were equal, this one … yes we’ve had it twice already … it just has a certain something imho, inc. Ricky Nelson’s daughter.

Plus it’s movie length, unlike a Saint.

(1018) Some jobs to do just now, this post might take some time. (1159) Back. (1208)

 

15. Fake charities again

This flour “enrichment” malarkey currently in the UK.
Here’s a map/list showing countries currently adding stuff.

Global Progress

🤔
Back in the 1970s I remember announcements from HM gubermint exhorting women who were planning to become pregnant or currently pregnant to take a folic acid supplement to avoid the possibility of their babies being born with spina bifida.
Look at the map above and join some dots if you will. Which demographic in the UK has the most kids now?
Is this the reason for the rush to adulterate flour and all its iterations?
🤔

12. Bringing Somalia to America

11. Heirs to the brownshirts

 

(0824) Morning all … light poisoned cloud cover, wall to wall out there. (0909)

 

10. Moo corner

9. Pass the Save Act

8. More from TimCB on X

A third survivor has walked off the government’s grooming gangs panel. Elizabeth (not her real name) Rotherham. Fiona Goddard and Ellie-Ann Reynolds have already gone. They say the process is scripted, toxic, and that the Home Office keeps trying to widen the brief so race and religion slide out of shot. They do not want another police or social-work chair marking the same homework.

Labour announced a national inquiry. Survivors are leaving it. The girls who were failed once by councils, police and a political class that would not say who the gangs were are being failed again if this becomes a general child-abuse seminar with the hard bit deleted. Keep the inquiry on grooming gangs. Appoint a chair the victims can stand. Anything else is why they quit.

7. Fragmentation looked at again (see Mon 5)

6. Fairford

TimCB on X:

Why Fairford? It is not a quiet Gloucestershire field. It is the US bomber strip in this country. B-1s have been flying the Iran war from there. About a dozen still on the pan. The IRGC had already talked about the base and the people on it.

Five men, explosives, vans, a village emptied. If that had gone off it would not have been a local incident. It would have been an attack on the runway the alliance uses to hit Iran, on British soil, next to British houses.

Host the bombers and you host the target. Policing a village at midnight is now part of air defence. The farmer who dialled 999 did more in that hour than another review of “resilience.” The next one may not get a 999. Treat the base as what it is: a front-line airfield with a Cotswold postcode. It is speculation but it seems likely that at least some of these men came by dingy treat the Channel as defended national border not a welcome to criminals.
