(0317) Dark out there and cold but it will be far colder and windier in two days … IYE’s comment? More near the end of this first long ramble this morning. (0424)

 

1. Aardman are at it again

There were no indications in the review that it was particularly Woke but it may be or not that the two reviewers were Woke and therefore unable to see it. Aardman themselves seem to have latched onto our current zeitgeist …

That review needs no embellishment from me … I’d like to make a grumpy comment about the two grumpy curmudgeons doing the presenting though. To audiences out in cyberland, they might know these two and all is well … to me who knows nowt about them, they seem grumpy beyond reason … very older male I’m afraid … and I wish he’d stop waving his hand around in front of the camera.

Now I know there’s older female syndrome as well with its own peculiaririties but in this post item, I’ll stick to the grumpy old male … and the gripe? That the curmudgeonry of others can be funny from a distance but having to sit through it at close quarters? Boring, I’m afraid … there’s a quiet menace in the tones of both, as if they’ll brook no dissent, not unlike Starmer … but to cut them some slack, perhaps they’re unaware how it comes across, perhaps I’m just imagining it.

I’m struggling to find a way to put this at 0329, having awoken from the first sleep and before, hopefully, a second but … well let’s just say that no household can have two such grumpy males under the same roof. We can easily entertain a mate, a few mates and spouses, for some time and I’m most lucky that MMUTR is just as irascible, grumpy and provocative as I am … with one added extra … we both know it, know the consequences if we push it … plus both are aware of the world’s current nastiness, such that we do cut the other some slack and even have a laugh.

Watch that all go wrong next time, having now said it. 😟😁

Point I’m making is that we do become set in our ways, just as things are falling apart out there. Those such as our patrons at Unherdables, with a keen sense of things rapidly changing and having to head them off at the pass, to plan ahead … do have … hmmmm … a head start perhaps.

Particularly if we’re quite aware that are territorial males, we like change less and less, we want our space under our personal control … and other males are not remotely interested in another man dominating that space … before we even consider the woman factor … that our health has a say in this as it deteriorates, esp. in this awful Gates winter, esp. as the deep state is certainly trying to kill us, no question.

Bring a woman into this, with her own set of needs and grumpiness, perhaps not coping as well … seems that it’s all going to need a whole heap of prayer to the trad Trinity. If the two are so used to one another, cut slack at the right times, to the right extent … then any Ultimatum Time can be headed off … good thing too.

There’s a very alpha young male next door here, with a forthright yet vulnerable female … we go to great lengths to cut the others slack … because we know the consequences of not so doing … plus a good mood across this rabbit warren high-landing is crucial to calm … we all want this, we want our collective space clean and workable.

Now these two vloggers doing the review of Vengeance Most Fowl … they’re used to running their own shows, controlling their own space … but but but … they’re not necessarily at our level of world awareness as a result of all the rabbit burrow diving … if they’re normies, I mean … rather, they might think they have the world summed up in their infinite wisdom as they see it … and I see precisely this going on with Trump, Elon and MAGA right now … we’re seeing a lot of “”go F yourself”, “bggr off” and so on.

At the same time … long suffering MAGA, trying to bring down these deep state bstds … while normies remain quite unaware or maybe vaguely aware that things ain’t good … our lot are also quite unwilling to cede any ground, esp. on the question of bloody invaders … Musk and Rammydammy totally unaware of the depth of feeling behind Trump’s victory over the evil muvvers. Plus they’re, we’re in fact, all irascible, unbending males … plus females.

One thing the review does point out is that Aardman have latched onto the central question quite well: “Why?”

Why must there even be a Feathers McGraw in the first place, wreaking vengeance? Why does he hate law and order, tradition, culture so much? And the High Techies with their “tech solutions for everything” (Wallace) … change change change for the sake of it, new new new the whole time … why?

Innovation, they say.

“Bleedin’ well why?” we retort. “Why can’t you just leave that which works reasonably well alone? Why must you interfere in other people’s lives? Why not just interfere in your own and see how it goes?”

Oh no, can’t be doing that, we must interfere in what we see as lesser people’s needs … the Innovators say … plus the kickbacks of course.

Perfect example (I’m assuming you’ve watched the review above) is that Gromit is dismayed. He needs no tech robot … he’s perfectly happy doing the garden work but oh no … Wallace in his Infinite Wisdom thinks Gromit will be appreciative, the poor indentured servant … but Gromit is not appreciative of the new interference … and so it goes on.

Message in the show, the review, this post? That there are certainly things which need taking care of … my boiler for a start, already showing signs and still December, that my calm, happy life blogging at you is due for another rude awakening, where my lekky bill jumps from £1.60 a day to £14 a day while the boiler’s out, which impinges on my food buying, which impinges on health and mood … you know how it all goes.

Take care of things? I shall be … whilst I remain compost mentis … and as long as some bstds don’t start trying to interfere … at the same time trying to keep the Unherdables show on the road by backing off and just allowing you chaps and chapesses to do your own thang in your own time.

All of us … all … need respite right now … need our personal systems working … need to tick off our own checklist of chores … that’s about it.

(1630) Evening all, not great right now, various forms of aches and lurgy, sleep is the main aid to recovery. A bit of blogging, then a snooze. A bit shaky right now, strange internal noises, but ok overall.

 

11. Word association (football) and confused memories

Mind wanders … just looked up when Gladiators ran (when Vinnie appeared) and that seems right … sometimes we can think we were at something but we weren’t … could not have been. For example, I could have sworn I was here for the Fish Hurricane but it was late 1987 and I was at the Perth America’s Cup at New Year 86/87, then probably worked in Oz that year.

I know I came back here the day after West Ham won the FA Cup coz I was at Speakers Corner but that seems to have been May 1980. Interesting, as I was certainly in Melbourne for the Oz coup d’etat and I was at the Leonda restaurant when John Kerr turned up … that had to be 1975.

Trying to date other events … my football team was Leeds United as a teenager … mates loved Billy Bremner but mine was always Peter Lorimer. What years were they? I confess I switched to the Crazy Gang once I was in London to live and looked likely to be for the foreseeable … think I’d been in Oz again. The Wombles had won the FA Cup, so I shamelessly followed them … then they gave the club away to bleedin’ Milton Keynes or something. Milton Friedman. I know we were 6th at one point, Everton were about to be relegated and they went and won. Everton are a pain … nice colours though.

Confession … my fave football colours are West Ham’s and Villa’s. The primary colour, by whichever name you want … claret, burgundy, crimson, maroon … was also the main colour of my fave car … then when I met Toodles, she said that if I went for Auburn, we had nothing more to say … so I looked at Bama’s colors and that was that.

Anyway, my Dad was the one I blame for Leeds … we were Park Avenue for many years and then he went for Leeds. Uh huh. Liverpool were the main rivals.

The other thing was being places when something happened. I was in Russia when they had their crash … I had to take my money in notes from the bank (armed guards) in black binbags. I was back here for our own crash … when was that? I was in Northern Ireland during the last of The Troubles. I was also in San Diego when the Americans were practising for the next America’s Cup, off San Diego.

I missed the Winter of Discontent by a year. I remember the Big Freeze … must have been a kid then.

10. Andy on slebs

Despite having had no tele since around 1997 or so, when it was stolen, meaning I missed the “reality TV” thang completely, missed Cowell’s thang, missed the entire Blair/Saville era, avoided Strictly like the plague (easy with no tele) … despite that, I’d see the occasional clip, esp. on youtube, thought him to be a creep, a big-noter but thought no more on’t … rather, my eyes were fixed on Dolphin Square, Cyril and Sir Cliff, innocent or not, the Jersey orphanage etc.

What was my last TV era, not that it’s of any interest? Well … Gladiators, Cilla and her chooks, Rab C Nesbitt … that’s about all I can recall. Anyway, ta Andy for bringing this up … it certainly gels with the other things we know of … I’ve no hard evidence but TOTP also seemed creepy to me … always.

And what of us, ourselves? Not so much in this way but in others … (cough) … look, we ain’t no saints … at best, we’re reformed sinners … with relapses … but I was only twice invited to such things … once by a Lord Mayor and once by one of our high flying parents. Think a bullet was dodged there, just quietly.

On the other hand, I’ve written about such things, obliquely, in the novel Masquerade, which no one but three I know of will ever read … good thing too. In that book, I had the former PM spilling the beans … which is neither here nor there. Stay well, Andy, stay vigilant, ta again.

8. Breanna Morello on a charming culture

”A mother and father are under arrest after they attempted to mu*der their daughter in front of her high school. Th(e) video allegedly shows Zahraa Subhi Mohsin Ali & Ihsan Ali attempting to carry out an ‘honor kil*ling’ in Washington after their daughter refused to marry an older man in Iraq. The 17-year-old victim ran away from home when her parents attempted to put her on a plane to Iraq. The victim’s father was immediately arrested, but her mother attempted to flee to Canada. The victim’s mother was just recently caught.”

7. It was always so bleedin’ obvious

4. Doonhamer replies to Steve at 922

 

Firstly, not 100% here at Higham Rabbit Warren, taking it easy, inc. blogging for now. Secondly, this filler is an American narration but even so, has much fine detail, a la Grifty and if you can just ignore the hyperbole, it ain’t arf bad at all.

Can’t see any jazz coming up later, sorry, a rare jazzless Sunday.

(0948) Morning (what’s left of it). A few seconds ago, at 0857, coughing and spluttering, I was thinking goodness it’s late today, did a couple of chores, started this … 0948. Tempus … it really does you know. (1056)

 

3. Arron makes some good points on enterprise

Even if we accept that small and medium business and the self-employed are a good way to go, with incentives to succeed … with not excessive safeguards for workers … what of corporate monopolies? Or PPPs?

And what of the unvaxxed and antiWoke being employed without prejudice?

2. Consider this in the light of the past few days

Looked her up … Turkish but not deathcult, seems pro Greek Orthodox, hence Kassandra’s retweet … where’s home to her? Homeland destroyed? As in the Persians? What of the Jewish diaspora … have they a right to live anywhere at all? The Scottish and Irish diaspora? Expats from here out there, e.g. in France or downunder?

Look at Badenoch, Lammy etc. … not of this culture or land in general … yet nor are Blair, Campbell, Straw, Starmer, even though they could claim birth. What of our France-based patrons here? I don’t claim to have answers here.

Musically, having seen the young lady’s take on the Everly Bros hit (n2 below), I looked up hits of 1960, went back 1959, 1958 … then fwd 1961, 1962 … just seemed to me that that’s the point it descended from relative innocence … for example, the song Multiplication appeared … unnecessary for adolescents at that age, plus Itsy Bitsy … always presented frivolously by what I call bad people.

Not sure you’d call Stay innocent as he was trying to get her to stay out past her 10 p.m. curfew, as we all tried on, and if they were good girls, they’d have to be home on time. Anyway, from 1960/61:

Brain food, guys and gals … brain food today. ☺️

(1533) Initial look at some naughty words (1605)

Just an overview, all right, a first dive into the topics, later to develop (cunning plan).

Talmud

In antiquity, the two major centres of Jewish scholarship were located in Galilee and Babylonia. A Talmud was compiled in each of these regional centres. The earlier of the two compilations took place in Galilee, either in the late fourth or early fifth century, and it came to be known as the Jerusalem Talmud (or Talmud Yerushalmi).

Later on, and likely some time in the sixth century, the Babylonian Talmud was compiled (Talmud Bavli). This later Talmud is usually what is being referred to when the word “Talmud” is used without qualification. Traditions of the Jerusalem Talmud and its sages had a significant influence on the milieu out of which the Babylonian Talmud arose.

Babylonian captivity

The northern Kingdom of Israel was destroyed around 720 BCE, when it was conquered by the Neo-Assyrian Empire. While the Kingdom of Judah remained intact during this time, it became a client state of first the Neo-Assyrian Empire and then the Neo-Babylonian Empire. However, Jewish revolts against the Babylonians led to the destruction of Judah in 586 BCE, under the rule of Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar II. According to the biblical account, the armies of Nebuchadnezzar II besieged Jerusalembetween 589–586 BCE, which led to the destruction of Solomon’s Temple and the exile of the Jews to Babylon; this event was also recorded in the Babylonian Chronicles. The exilic period saw the development of the Israelite religion towards a monotheistic Judaism.

The exile ended with the fall of Babylon to the Achaemenid Empire c. 538 BCE. Subsequently, the Achaemenid king Cyrus the Great issued a proclamation known as the Edict of Cyrus, which authorized and encouraged exiled Jews to return to Judah. Cyrus’ proclamation began the exiles’ return to Zion, inaugurating the formative period in which a more distinctive Jewish identity developed in the Persian province of Yehud. During this time, the destroyed Solomon’s Temple was replaced by the Second Temple, marking the beginning of the Second Temple period.

Khazars

Ashkenazis

Nephilim

The Nephilim are mysterious beings or people in the Bible who are described as being of great strength and size. They are mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, also known as the Christian Old Testament, in the books of Genesis, Numbers, and Ezekiel. 

The word “Nephilim” is sometimes translated as “giants” or “the fallen ones”. The identity of the Nephilim is debated by scholars and theologians. Some possible interpretations include: 

• The Nephilim were the offspring of angels and humans, resulting from the “taking of wives” in Genesis 6. 
• The Nephilim were the children of males from the line of Seth and females from the line of Cain. 
• The Nephilim were called Nephilim because they “fell short” of their fathers in some way. 

Some say that the Nephilim were similar to the demigods of the Greeks.

IYE’s latest:

DAYTON, Ohio—The Air Force is pausing its sixth-generation fighter jet program as it weighs whether the companies in the running to build it have the right design, a move that’s likely to delay the service’s plans to pick a builder this year.

“With the platform itself, we’re taking a pause,” Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall said Tuesday at the Air Force’s Life Cycle Industry Days conference. “Before we commit to moving forward on a single design and a single supplier, we want to take a hard look at that program and make sure it’s right.”

The service will “take a few months” to figure out if it has the right design and operational concepts for the planned Next Generation Air Dominance aircraft, Kendall said, but reaffirmed that the program will eventually move forward, and likely be designed for a human pilot.

Next … the Rumble video.

Next, from Juan’s long piece:

JDVance said it best:

“One of the things you hear people say sometimes is that America is an idea. America is not just an idea. It is a group of people with a shared history and a common future. It is, in short, a nation.” pic.twitter.com/b8Nxwpf4N5

Perhaps Elon will get that hint. If not, the other signal he should note is Tesla’s share price. It was down almost 5% on Friday, the worst performer of the Magnificent Seven stocks.

Tesla shares have skyrocketed since the election, as investors realized that with Elon’s new best friend in the White House, the regulatory obstacles and lawfare against Tesla would stop. 

With Elon endorsing takes by Indian American Democratic operatives, maybe investors are starting to rethink that thesis. 

Tesla Drops Out Of Our System’s Top Ten Names
One of the components of Portfolio Armor’s automated security selection system is options market sentiment. After being in our system’s top ten names earlier this week, Tesla didn’t appear in Thursday night’s top ten.

Next, over to 922:

As Sonia Poulton said in the Andrew Gold video I left y/day it is foolish to put people on pedestals and treat them like saviours. Ramasmarmy is dodgy – look into his background – and Musky is too.

Uh huh … now a Christian of the eschatalogical kind is also going to apply that to the Beast and the antiC. Reason I shan’t label either Chas, Wills, Don or Barron is I have not the slightest idea … there are indications, biblically, that the AC won’t even know until shortly before it happens. As for us … signs, yes, but a number of candidates.

Now Don with Gates, even supposedly inviting Elon … where are you? A phone call would have done that … is Donny himself playing a double game with them?

Last comment of mine is that there are various world dominating cults about … the Ashkenazi Talmudic, the deathcult, the Chinese, the Masonic Mystery Architect lot, the Vatican … all wanting to shut the others out, so there’s much warfare there. The last ones they want leading the people away from their doom are the biblical Christians.

Toodles brought up a good point … what’s with this New Testament Christian rubbish? A Christian is both Old Testament plus New Testament, one keeps referring back to the other, the earlier points often to the later.

Toodles does not consider herself a scholar … my definition of a scholar is a learner, with both open mind but also storing up that which seems to check out.

That’s my first cursory skim reading and watching.

Now to X:

……

(1229) Uh huh, been through there, some items coming up as screenshots over the day.

Gab:

This.

(0830) Time to slow this right down instead of rushing past to catch up with the next incoming topic. I’d suggest that this might be the most vital post since maybe the pizza posts which themselves shifted fundamental understandings.

Difference here is that the manner of writing, separately, of both Toodles and Juan, is not always easy to follow, to comprehend. Plus both of those need protecting, also IYE who has written on this topic over at 922.

Couple that with essentially non-believing readers in the main and the chances of this being rejected are super-high. Pity. Just to put Juan’s long piece today in comments in context … it was in pending, along with a sudden 37 spam, surrounding it.

Let me explain … the engine room of WP in its special form at HQ which I’m no more going to let out than Nigel is going to give Badenoch their IT … lists all potential spam in a list … usually one can spam it and delete quite simply. Just now though, Juan’s piece appeared surrounded by 37, then 17 pieces of spam out of nowhere … usually it might be ten in a day. Coincidence?

And that was at precisely the time Toodles had written on indians and “ancient religions” … quite rightly too, as she is a biblical scholar. She felt I was ignoring her warnings, just as Juan has every right to feel ignored in my not running his comments in the main part of the blog, just as I don’t always run IYE’s in open form … and the reason is to protect … there are ways it stays protected, ways it’s open season, asking to be targetted. Please leave that call to me, with the overview I’m afforded here.

And so to the indian question. Which god has or had a statue right outside CERN HQ? God of Strife, yes? And what exactly is CERN? You starting to see the internet connection?

Now read IYE from today. Now slowly read through Juan, trying to interpret his English.

The message in all of the above is … beware of the indians, esp. Brahmins … kapiche?

Who knows precisely what this is about? Christians who are well read (but not the faux showoffs and cherry pickers) … they know, hence being down to be wiped out … plus shaitan’s henchmen (e.g. the WEF) know exactly how this goes down … but not the little helpers, the brainwashed in Wokery … plus not the godless, left-libertarian silicon IT techies … those last mentioned guys have not a clue, due to their denial of all but the Great God Tech and brutalist physical laws as they imagine them.

We’ve shown over and over that that particular stairway is … well let me quote a ditty:

“There’s a feeling I get when I look to the West
And my spirit is crying for leaving

In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking

Ooh, it makes me wonder

Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow? And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind?”

People, we’re being used … but are we being abused? Every group thinks it is on the right path. Which one is right? They can’t all be.

All the ancient, ante-diluvian religions have a purpose … same purpose back then as today … whether through the Templars/Masons/Illumined or the gnostic or Thule or Kali or Confucius or any other way forward … Maharishi, Lennon, Moody Blues … or other explanation of things … but which single faith is under such intense attack worldwide? Plus it does not help itself by dropping into such opaque terminology.

Now, even while writing this very post’s paragraph above, guess what was happening?

You, dear reader, are not to know even a fraction of what’s going on to prevent us unless we actually come out and tell you … as in things suddenly kicking in to prevent things coming out … either at the Donald level … or right down at our localised level here.

There’s a saying on the net … the more flak, the more over target we are. IYE’s just put up another across the way. My suggestion? Read all of it, painstakingly, folks … because the truth is most certainly somewhere in today’s and last evening’s output combined. Somewhere.

And forget not the technique … to divert suspicion away from the main enemy, obliquely into other constructed enemies, e.g. climate bollox.

Dear reader, we beseech thee … do not skip over our comments sections … they’re there in the sidebar for a reason, e.g. this one:

Steve’s are not to be ignored either. In fact, there’s way too much, overall, to take in … it takes some time … and my food delivery is about to arrive.

(1143) Plan now is to go through the material, three day’s cooking done, thence to X to see the comeback of Vivek and Elon, thence to this old time take on Christmas … thence to write some sort of take here, as far as I can see it.
