The early years of the world
This re-runs something I put up at the old N.O. and is, imho, a fine overview, in which he takes one of a number of interpretations on each successive point, which together form a cohesive whole. The episodes below are 4 to 8 of some 70+ overall … in these in particular, I thought he did a pretty good job.
The key episode, imho, is n8, as it explains so much of today’s dire situation and for me personally … well I’ve been involved with some of these people, face to face so to speak.
The eighth seems to have been embedding disabled … it says by the video owner but this would only be because Them disapproved of it getting out … which our experience tells us means the nail has indeed been hit on the head.
I’m not upset by this as it could well turn out to be a safety valve.
(0632) Morning all. Grifty, you’ll recall, opens her pieces with “… you gorgeous, good looking people” and I was thinking (dangerous I know) … that that’s quite nice. Critics might call it insincere but I’d call it all-inclusive for those of her mindset. And let’s face it … would you prefer waking up to “we’re doomed, doomed y’hear” or to… “Morning, you intelligent, discerning, patient patrons …” or similar? (Brits of course would recognise Private Frazer in that “doomed” one and might smile at it.) (0734)

Bin thinking … when I group multiple shorts under one number, the power of each seems diminished, unless a single author. I’m thinking let each have it’s own number. Quite like this guy:

a) Britain’s food supply is facing a growing new threat after a wave of suspected arson attacks targeted farms across the country while the UK endures what experts warn could become the worst harvest since records began.
Police have urged farmers to remain on high alert amid a series of suspicious fires destroying hay and straw stores, with investigators examining whether the attacks are being fuelled by a viral challenge circulating on the Chinese Communist Party-linked social media platform TikTok.
b) Despite a raft of measures in recent years, cold telephone calls still plague daily life in France. The government has now opted for a tougher crackdown.
Cold calling is about to come to an end. (JH: I’m taking this one up later, separately.)
c) Giorgia Meloni rejects Sánchez ultimatum to lift Schengen checks
Rome has tied any review of the suspension to intelligence warnings of a fresh mass crossing attempt at Ceuta.

(0452) We get these Damascene moments, esp. if we believe something deep down. And one thing clear to me is that my focus needs to be not only on news gathering as we’ve been doing but also doing my own “magpie mind” thing in “bits from here and there I find” and bring them back to this nest. That starts to make sense. (0539)
The Magpie Mind this Sunday morn
In other words … integrity, reputation within our “community”, what our name means is everything. Yes, esp. in this community here, where deep diving and accuracy are essential. Also the baddies will always exploit our weaknesses.
For some reason, I took that line, no idea why, in my long book … that things happen, not just because of a linear timetable, cause and effect, but because of conjunctions of circumstances, even IYE’s “coinky-dinks”. And the obvious question is … how random? Or is it designed and directed?
That berr-eh-sheet youtube had many things wrong with it in itself:
Then we come to young women today:


Boys … would you go anywhere near one of these, these days? Need your head read if so. What does she offer, except poor, self-centred nooky?
Here endeth this Magpie Mind for today.

14. The horror “journos” of the MSM
This is a strange one and I’m trying to decipher why this young guy should go after this Kay Burley. I do know of her … a horror such as Vorderman, Maitlis, Bash, Winfrey etc. For awhile, Lara Logan was like that but Cairo woke her out of it.

Middle-aged, middle-class, pretend-dissident ladies who luv Nige (such a Nice boy), likely from the Midlands, SE coast, London or south coast to Cornwall, wanting a party which just seems so Nice, despite Yusuf, the MCB and ££££s controlling our Nige. Nice controlled opposition.

Sam, “My Panopticon found the Secret Tunnels in Manchester”.
“My Panopticon camera is a specialised device designed to capture images with an exceptionally wide, elongated field of view, much broader than what a standard camera lens can see. They achieve this using wide-angle lenses, rotating mechanical lenses, or multiple synchronised image sensors to record sweeping landscapes or 360-degree scenes.”
It’s either AI or scripted but still makes its point:
