(0847) Morning again, all. Rather than give progress reports on food stores all over the place, best I keep those reports within post Fri 1. Weather’s very Gates out there, not particularly freezing. Andy, yours coming up in Fri 6 after the short feature. (0912)

a) It is not only in France that the Farmers are angry: There are tractors in Brussels: Farmers demand that EU Bureaucrats listen. Mercosur and the Green Deal have become the symbols of fierce citizen discontent.

b) Do political ends justify illegal means? That is the fashionable question in Brussels, and for several years now the European Union’s answer has been clear and unequivocal: “Yes, and so what?”

c) On the sidelines of the European Council, Italy, Denmark, and the Netherlands convened fifteen Member States particularly concerned with finding innovative solutions to migration.

d) From climate rules to migrant quotas, Brussels is quietly retreating on policies once sold as non-negotiable—revealing how power, not principle, ultimately shapes EU decision-making.

e) Salvini acquitted of all charges in ‘Open Arms’ Case.

An issue has arisen

At the moment, it’s not major from my perspective … slept well, warm, food here.

The issue is that there’s none available in store it seems … that thing we had an inkling was the case, was going to be, thanks to govt, might have happened. Alternatively, there’s just a glitch at one store. All right, there are alternatives and one by one, they need exhausting.

Blog’s working fine, so am I, it’s just that our food supply might have ceased. Need to go and find out. Back when it’s resolved. Or not. Morning all.

0815 report: Right, I’m back, went to a local store which I thought might be open. It’s rubbish food … Birdseye etc., plus plenty of tins, so not going to starve. Same shopkeeper, please to see me and vice-versa. Ok, we shall see how their supplies go.

Not going into town. We’re not a prime deathcult area yet but all the same … best not go into town. What I did discover is I could not walk properly … yikes. Have dropped off with the conditioning, must do some this afternoon.

Right, as for the store being out of meat, fish, produce … completely … shall check their site through the day. I suspect it’s either a glitch or they really are out of those things or it’s something with me, personally, they don’t like. Someone leaning on them for our personal views as a demographic. Best not to overspeculate just now. Plenty of food, liquid, warm here … for now. Site seems to work.

Nothing on X but Brits usually respond mid morning … let’s wait till they try to go to the store.

0954: This 👇🏻

1144: Nothing further for now. Any changes, shall report here.

(1627) Evening all.

16. Churchbells each day in deathcult caterwauling areas required

 

We bring you only the best here:

“It’s also not one of the best acted films, but the acting is enthusiastic. Every level of campiness, eccentrism, pomposity and emotional excess is used, as well as the absence of any emotion as well. The film starts with an emotionless yet domineering Richard Kiel making his way into the laboratory of pompous scientist George Macready to manipulate him into the creation of androids. George Nader, Hugh Beaumont and Dolores Faith are the seemingly normal ones, and Barbara Nichols as Nader’s girlfriend the most abnormal, a constantly chatty assistant whose intelligence remains in question and also just how she got her position and attracted Nader.

That being said, she’s also the funniest, so over the top and brassy that you wonder how often she’s polished. But that doesn’t mean that she’s right for the film, and the laughs she gets are definitely at her expense. Faith speaks, but she’s so monotone and one dimensional, thus barely present. The scenes between Kiel and Macready are genuinely funny because both are extremely serious. Sets are colorful but fake looking, and the film looks rather cheap as a result.

But the discussion of androids being necessary to create a master race is disturbing and timely, and even a bit before its time. Too bad that the script really stinks.”

 

Serious memory loss at this end, genuinely so, from two days to about two weeks before … I simply cannot remember, which is all the more reason to have the carols page (see sidebar). I’m thinking it was IYE who asked if we could slip this one in somewhere and I dropped Hark the Herald for this in the before Christmas period. Anyway, enjoy … despite no seventh verse.

This is from Toodles … down near the gulf coast of America, on the veranda, or verandah dahlink, as in a Jane Austin novel … the video is evocative of a time, an era, a different society. To me, this is what a southern American lady is watching, in situ, just as, say, Moosh corner is evocative of a former Britain.

(0647) Still dark out there of course. Light around 0800. (0749)

 

10. Moosh corner

9. From Lord Toby’s TDS today

“Safeguarding, like its redeployed stablemates diversity and inclusion, has joined the ranks of words that means the opposite of what was intended. Scepticism around alleged ‘safeguarding’ has finally reached the mainstream media. Rod Liddle writes in this week’s Sunday Times about how a ‘safeguarding risk’ is actually a bureaucratic tool to beat people with who don’t share the elite-sanctified views concerning immigration, terrorists and Nigel Farage (good, good, bad).”

The error Mary Gilleece and so many others make is to think of Farage as good (posts passim).

8. Rolf and PMQs again

HERE

Rolf is the closest we can get to Westminster today type analysis without going to Guido. With respect to Guido plus Rolf, the way public events have moved just in this last year renders Westminster a den of the corrupt and the psychopathic. Psychopathic and it’s associated term sociopathic refer in this case to not only complete non-interest in the lives of those “electing” them but actual despising and even hatred of the people of the land, a la Jack Straw. Compare this to Rupert Lowe.

It’s not too much of a stretch to call them lowlifes, bottom feeders … yes, WEFer Badenough included.

7. Toodles

“Almost daily I hear how dreadful another actor really was, not that the one in question was any real special actor because he was not, but one grows up hearing his name and watching him in a silly sit com.

I am thinking he once had a stand up comic routine, played the ukulele, if I remember correctly. His brother was famous and just turned 100 yrs old … Jerry Van Dyke is the one I am speaking of. He was absolutely terrible if Crazy Days and….is to be believed. 

It is reported that he molested his daughter and also allowed his friends to do the same…one being a favorite of mine, Robert Mitchum. He was sometimes a drinking buddy guest with JVD staying as a  guest at the house. If the story is to be believed JVD, the father, made his daughter join ‘the guest’ in the guest room. 

She talked about it on a show or interview around 1990. She told what happened. After she unalived herself (boy, ain’t it ridiculous we cannot use real words) that interview was hidden. Not sure how it has now gotten out.

Watching films with so many perverted individuals certainly is not my cup of tea, I can assure you! 

Anyway, it is a very disgusting thing to hear about. I cannot even imagine how she dealt with things…obviously not well since she was a druggie and done herself in. 

The thing is, I imagine boys suffer horrible atrocities and most deal with it in silence more than not. Horrible…especially since it is even more perverted than the other which of course is perverted and horrible. 

No telling the suffering many people endure who we might even pass on the street from time to time.  We might even pass the people perpetrating such hideous and vile abusive acts on them and others too.”

JH: More HERE and I notice one commenter mention Martin Landau too.

(0531) Morning all. I just wrote to a friend:

“And praying for Old Peculier’s wife. Horrible circumstances.  Think I mentioned he’s not peculiar that way … it’s the name of a famous beer here from the 70s/80s … I preferred XB but I do know the drop OP.  That tells me he’s a north-easterner, transported to NZ.” (0626)

JH: A word about not only Steve’s signposting here but everyone’s … the idea is to only give secondary source (reportage by me) at HQ … here is primarily a site for headlines. The actual good oil is across the way … my first stop, after looking at the inbox, is NOWP and then Jstack (we have a readership over there), plus a quick check of OoL, then Bookmarks 3 and of UHCWP for any new url buried in there … no one expects anything sensitive there … perfect storage place. Then out to key fellow bloggers, then X.

3. IYE and the burying of treasure

JH: There have been a few of these of late and the way they must be handled is to bury and go back to first principles. And what are these first principles? Well it comes down to what the site is about.

There are those into “scoops” on their “show”, monetising their soaring ratings … and then those whose job they see as bringing it but then the reader needs to exercise some brainpower to follow up. The principle is that we, the pundits, can lead a horse to water but that’s it.

What I’d personally do is get out the dead tree A5 pads I use and jot down, for example, the Thu 1 to 5 url, which is sufficient to access the comment … thence the good oil … and send it out to one of the archive centres. That’s all. What is of sufficient value to warrant such measures? Well, in Italy for example, one does not make reference to the Nobility of a darkish colour. There are local triggers too. Also, why do you think the old OoL went down? It wasn’t LR, it was poor security plus an anathema topic approached.

Not insulting you, reader, as you’ve bothered to come to find out, even to dig out. Here’s a snippet:

“Robert Kilroy-Silk’s former Veritas Party to undertake a detailed examination of the extent to which senior and junior ministers close to (one of the PMs) were given free licence to engage in paedophiliac activities under the protection of the (Sceptr’d) (dumbness) services.”

2. This was the door security DAD was referring to yesterday

1. DAD at 1235

a) The Farmers are angry. The map shows Autoroutes, but the protests are spreading to other roads; even my little nearby town is bloqué….

b) On Saturday, December 13, 2025, in several bookstores in Bordeaux (Mollat, Fnac, Relay, etc.), members of Extinction Rebellion carried out an action against books published by the Hachette group, owned by Vincent Bolloré**** since 2023.

c) If one does not want to invest money in the usual places, how about an Abbey? Would you like to give meaning to your savings by lending to the monks of Barroux to finance the construction of their wine tasting cellar?
