Sunday [6]

(0917) Auspicious day proceeds. (0928)

 

The stealing of an 18 year old blog…

… after previous attempts by GglBlgr, stealing older posts and all the rest of it …

 

Nourishing Obscurity 20th birthday today (would have been)


Some might recall …


The blog was vulnerable, including its “Guestposts” separate blog … when Unherdables finally went up on September 7th, 2024, it was a more professional set up, though I know quite a few do miss the amateur fun vee had.

Despite being more professional in its engine room, it’s still being hit by about 20 spam an hour but that’s covered inside. All and all, it’s worked out so far, except for the commenting woes but chaps and chapesses … for such a naughty blog complex … with its history … well, that’s only to be expected and thx for your perseverance. đŸ„°

Analog cars (American spelling)

 

The short version:

The long version:

There’s quite a history behind this girl:

Her mother was groomed, threw in her lot with one of the chief baddies, JJD still drags her beloved mom around for her cause and mom, bemused, not a true believer, goes along with daughter dear. Similar to Lydia Taylor Davis on abortion.

At this age, girls get very active. They either go Woke and start throwing soup at old paintings, gluing their hands to roads etc. …


… or they miraculously wake up and are then a fierce force for good, forever.

This topic today, of course, is the older vehicles versus thevnew, controlling, remotely cibtrolled EVs many don’tvwant, esp. the Zoomers.

And one more thing, between ourselves … if we do not get behind the right thinking, “having woken up” lasses and lads, plus at the same time we’re trying to change society back … then WTH are we doing? Tying our hands behind our backs after donning the blindfolds? Zoomers and Alphas are the future … so let’s join with them in getting it right.

Sunday [1 to 5]

(0650) Morning all, more gloomy, poisonous skies but other than that … all right. |https://unherdablecats.com/page-for-july/ Heading over now, over coffee, to OoL and Jstack with a climate item. (0717)

 

5. These sorts of lasses, not unlike WW2 codebreakers

… are, imho, vital to the war effort … they can get under guards, where we’re seen coming.


4. Who is this guy?

He’s Elon’s head of product and the one controlling the X algorithm. I can’t comment on blue tick dissident accounts (antiWoke) but those bluetickers are reporting not good things on their accounts. I decided, with mine, to take less product, more security.

2. Going to run this over and over

… one of the Unherdables canon about life and politics:


1. DAD at 1449

a) A French modelling scout accused of helping Jeffrey Epstein recruit and abuse young women and children has been found dead at his home outside Paris, prosecutors said Wednesday….

c) Hungary’s autocratic drift is happening now. In the span of two highly productive weeks, PĂ©ter Magyar, the darling of the self-proclaimed virtuous camp, managed to force out the country’s legitimate president after harassing him from the moment of his election victory; prevent half of the opposition from running in the 2030 parliamentary elections; remove four Constitutional Court judges from office….

d) A Canadian husband is sounding the alarm after the country’s government-run healthcare system tried to euthanise his wife instead of saving her life, forcing the couple to flee to the United States



Saturday [16 till close of play]

(1549)

 

20. Wildfires across Europe

Not up with the stories yet, only have this so far:


Might be better in this case to rely on the MSM. Our two chaps are over there, one not all that far from Bordeaux. Prayers. More:


Just from my own memories downunder, that was the pattern … coastal areas or just inland or specific bushland areas further inland. In wind corridors, which France/Spain very much have, coming off the Med.

Hmmmmm, shall try to keep an eye on it.

19. Moo corner


18. Women’s behaviours becoming lifestyles


17. Lucy Letby


16. The sad steps of the GOP

Saturday [11 to 15]

(1039) Approaching elevenses. (1142)

 

15. Here’s the first of these rolled out likes and dislikes


Yes, it’s Donovan, with Catch the Wind. Lovely song, no doubt about it, one of maybe three of his I liked, excluding Hurdy Gurdy and Mellow Yellow. I read people under videos being all nostalgic … hmmmmm … there’s such a thing, methinks, as something being soooo interwoven with certain experiences at the time … too interwoven … in this case, some girl with a guitar at a campfire in the forest … singing it well too … but …

… it was a time when I was without partner. They all seemed to know one another, were paired off … I had had maybe a three year phase in secondary where I had meaningfully known a girl or three … but that had now passed, that time, this was college/university, I knew none of these people, yet they were supposedly my peer group. It was isolating … clearly I was in the wrong pool with this hippy set.

Just doing the arithmetic and I’d say two years later, it all changed … in fact our friends at that time said we were almost like a married couple. Happy days. But not this time two years earlier in the forest. Thus I see the Donovan album and quietly move past, skip over it. And they were quite a tough two years as well, almost hell on earth. Just a few nice times dotted along through that wasteland. And my 21st was worse … until she appeared.

14. Meanwhile, in Greece


13. The real fascism, that of the EU in this case

… is now on display for the world to see.


12. DAD and our flowergirl

There are all sorts of composing glitches WP have inserted, Ggl too, in order to make it less workable … I surmise the idea is that if we pay premium, all these glitches will disappear.

One particularly annoying one is the sizing and shaping of the sidebar pic. It used to go up in true size and shape. Which meant that the text started higher or lower below it … it was fine.

Then suddenly, they forced it into a square which can’t be altered … it can be resized but the shape is the shape. So, our flowergirl pic, which you can see the shape of, when posted, was squashed up into a square.

How useless is that? It does not take a square snapshot somewhere within the pic, it just squashes any photo into a square. Why? And in the dashboard settings, those settings have been removed. Hence the new version of the pic today.

11. It’s a different world for them


There’s a type of person I instinctively warm to these days and various types I avoid like the plague. On the latter, I’m about to start posting one off posts about the ones I avoid, which I would guess are largely those you would too … start with Labour politicians.

But there are also those I would instinctively post for good reasons … both this girl, plus her parents for good reason. There are other victims, real ones, inc. Nigerian and middle-eastern Christians … there are really nice people, we are drawn to.

Saturday [6 to 10]

(0813) Sun’s out. (0841)

 

10. Moo corner


9. Ferreters at it again, thank goodness


8. Julia was going on about bridges

… someone crashing into a bridge or hitting it or whatever … she asked how could anyone hit a bridge? Think my reply was entirely unnecessary:


7. One for our boys today

Golden rule … eyes on the girls by all means, let the ladies be lauded … but at the same, never neglect the boys … it has a way of coming back onto you if you do.
