Sociotropes

 

This slot after the 5th item is meant to be for trains, planes and why supermarkets have clocktowers … however … today, I can’t think where to put the young Scot … plus we’re short of good “shorts” … plus we’re on Peter Gunn hiatus … plus I can’t use this tomorrow as there’s already a megapost in the works, across OoL, HQ and Jstack.

Those who know of the guy below might dismiss his “independent Christian” stance, which is biblically based … and yet he does not often quote the bible, similar to where I’m placed. The interest for me is in how the young think, which is pretty much par for the course, given my work history.

Wednesday [1 to 5]

(0705) Morning all. Good sleep at this end … over an hour was spent on tomorrow’s post about a Zoomer Or Gen Xer, not sure which, attacking the hated Boomer … and a rethink needed on all this. So now, at 0707, trying to catch up and get the first post out after going through NOWP. Things are certainly slower and slower … the redaction, whilst faster and faster … the incoming. (0809)

 

5. Well well well

3. Justice for Katie

Katie’s very much become a British treasure in, say, the last half decade and many, many Xers posted in her defence.

a) Marine Le Pen would beat every major Presidential rival in 2027, Elabe Poll says.

b) Emmanuel Macron’s visit to Stockholm on Monday, August 31st, added a political dimension to a major contract for the French defence industry. The French president and Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson attended the signing of an agreement for Sweden to acquire four defence and intervention frigates (FDI) built by Naval Group in a contract worth €4.3 billion.

c) Andrew Bridgen … New study finds mycotoxins in every plant-based fake meat product 212 “plant-based meat alternatives” were tested and found without fail to contain toxic fungi, kinds that are carcinogenic, hepatotoxic, nephrotoxic & immune suppressive….

d) Firefighters in Ceuta held a demonstration against the invasion of the city, holding a banner with “Europe help” on it. 

On the same day that the number of serious sex attacks reached 23 and reports confirm 10 known JIHADISTS had entered the city. 

All eyes on Spain !

1. Let’s start with some history

Tue Mat overkill

 

Lower case pete has provided this one:

With Richard Vernon as Lord Emsworth of Blandings Castle… the first one : ”The Custody of the Pumpkin” – and at 1.50 mins, ”Lord Emsworth and The Girlfriend” (anyone know who’s playing the music?)

… and how about ”Mr Finchley Takes the Road” — Richard Griffiths as Mr Finchley?

Tuesday [11 to 15]

(1059) Enjoy your elevenses if possible, folks. (1314)

 

15. You’ll have to give the EU your savings now … they’re bankrupt

14. What is “organic” these days?

12. Notting Hill Filth Fest report

There’s an interesting Libertarian question here. Some of us, you see, are more classical liberal, meaning that there’s such a thing as integrity, decency, normal limits, society’s trad underpinnings … so not, for example, murder of full term babies for their parts, rape of underage girls by gangs et al. There were, long ago in the west, some sort of at least lip service limits.

The “middling” Libertarian is more liberal … do all the above but “find a room”, don’t inflict your paedo rape on us … we don’t wish to know, what we can’t see can’t hurt us..

Then there is the sort of “Libertarian” we saw at the Filth Fest … anything at all with any age, any sex, any race, any species, Modern Plod too … from debauchery to rape to slaughter … you can force anything you want on anyone you want to hurt. I have a different word for that … Licentiousness. Sodom and Gomorrah. Moloch.


11. No pit deep enough for these monsters

Tuesday [6 to 10]

8. Tories betrayed the British voters


7. Of visitors, patrons, films and radio plays

There’s a page I rely on, in the engine room, which is All Comments. Frankly, my memory is shocking these days … just because I can string words together, does not mean I remember all I should. However, this comments page at HQ and at NOWP allows me not to miss too much, hence Fido corner appeared this morning.

I do see all the film ideas, inc. Andy’s Hornleigh … taken together, we have sufficient watching for this week at least and again, thanks to All Comments, I can scroll back to see what I’ve missed. Thanks to you patrons too.

What I’d ask you is that … say … after a week, if I’ve neither posted nor explained why best not to in this or that case … in other words, if I do seem to have missed your item … you will not be offending to remind me. There is so much incoming just now, plus increasingly govt imposed domestic strictures are starting to really impinge, Chez Higham.

Umbrage

Umbrage really is the killer of deep diving and while I’d agree it’s justified here and there, we should not lose sight of the mission at the same time. Plus we’re ageing, chaps and chapesses … we become blunt … add that to the very mindset Unherdables and other sites require … prickly, non-trusting, ever-verifying … the potential for miffs and rifts is high. I believe that the pressure we bring to bear, en masse, does eventually bear fruit, God willing.

I myself must be calmly ploughing on, otherwise I’m no use to anyone, too easily shifted, dust in the wind. But that creates an emotionless mindset, procedural … which militates against love and emotion … and I have to guard against becoming soul-less as a result. Nuff for now.
