(0634) Morning all, even if still dark. (0749)
4. There was an Elon quote
… which unfortunately I deleted a week or two back, in the usual mass deletions, to the effect that in the midst of all the horrors, to keep perspective and calm mind … redolent of the WW2 posters here to stay calm and carry on.
It’s a double-edged sword because Them are asking you to accept privation upon privation they keep piling upon you and to stay cheerful. Uh huh. Second word is “off” and the moment there’s the chance, the miscreants are gone.
On the other hand, it’s good general advice because of that thing called one’s mental health … these Fs, to revert to swearing for a moment … have the common people at their mercy … the last crims on earth who should be in charge of anything whatever …
… but we know that. Keep cash in a box? Uh huh. One violent storm and we’re all goners? Uh huh. Warning … religious plug coming up now from me, readers, click out while you can.
Comfort
There is very much a course open to every individual, I’ve dropped firm hints for a few years now … to my mind, it’s the only sanity preserver possible, other than having a naturally stoic disposition, which I do not have, I become anxious if I fail to make moves not to be anxious … and there was a Man, soon to be on a cross, who told his followers that he would send the Comforter … I can vouch for the efficacy of that, so can thousands over the two millennia … but it only works if you straighten up and fly right.
That is … as long as we get our own house in order, then his side of the contract is also honoured.
lllegitimi non carborundum
There’s a certain amount of “Illegitimi non carborundum” in this as well, which translates thus:
Illegitimi non carborundum is a mock-Latin aphorism, often translated as: “Don’t let the bastards grind you down”. The phrase itself has no meaning in Latin and can only be mock-translated. (Wiki)
It’s a conscious decision to avail yourself of the means … far better than a bottle or substances which wear off and rob you of the ability to fight. In very dark times, you’ll see many reverting to calls on an Almighty they scoff at in good times … pity it is seen only as a last resort but there ya go.
Vigilance
The n1 error, if the human mind retreats into a fantasy world of deluded hope in false solutions … just look at the climatemongers for a start just now … is the loss of a sense of reality, of awareness of real things … such as what the bstds are trying to do with their psy ops upon us … planned for many decades, designed to be rolled out in the new 20s and beyond. Hell, they even have Agendas called by years … 21, 30, 35 etc.
By all means have your head in the clouds, as long as you still have your feet firmly on the ground. This very site is going through some glitches this morning, as is WP, as is my provider … all sorts of gremlins are inserted to derail us, to separate us from our reason.
The dark joke is that the very people speaking of tinfoilhats, poking fun at pundits such as me, such as us, are not laughing so much anymore now as insane policy after insane policy is enacted by people who are simply loonies, crims, evil muvvers of low moral compass.
And we tinfoilhatters? We carry on, shaking the head sadly.

Haven’t these people heard about crime8 change? One violent storm on this plant and there will be no more plants for generations (multiple puns intended).

a) One can’t trust Mother Nature to help when one makes stupid decisions. Electricity prices have been spiking across Europe, with Germany seeing a record high of €936 per megawatt hour, reports Bild.
b) Dutch Banks will advise people to keep cash at home because of the tense international situation, a spokesperson of the Dutch Banking Association (NVB) has said.
c) Around 5 p.m., a man then spontaneously presented himself to the Ghyvelde [NE France] brigade, claiming to be the perpetrator of this homicide in Wormhout and the four other murders. In Loon-Plage, near Dunkirk, the individual explained that he had shot two former colleagues and two migrants nearby.….
d) Giorgia Meloni’s government has conferred Italian citizenship on Javier Milei in a sign of the growing rapport between the two “hard-Right” [sic] leaders.
(JH: I’m afraid, DAD, that I inserted the “” in that item.)
e) USPS Chief Louis DeJoy covers his ears during congressional hearing. Lack of respect shown to American taxpayers.
