Thursday [13 to 16]

(1420) Was sorting out Christmas shopping for the limited number involved, time got away. (1452)

 

16. When you’ve made yourself obnoxious to all and sundry

… money and destructiveness may remain …


15. Well it’s one view


14. Aixelsyd can be a problem


13. Lord T reports from the BBC

Cash use in the shops rose for a second year in a row after a decade of falls, according to retailers.

Notes and coins were used in a fifth of transactions last year, the British Retail Consortium (BRC) said, as shoppers found cash helped them to budget better.

The amount spent per purchase also dropped slightly from £22.43 in 2022, to £22.03 last year, it said.

The findings were published after charities told a committee of MPs that numerous groups were excluded from essential services and community venues that had started to refuse cash.

Thursday [2 to 7]

(0657) Greetings humans, this dark morning as we hurtle towards the shortest day. (0749)

 

7. Badenoch



6. It would make a MAGA blanche


5. Rare earth


That’s according to TGP … problem for me is the map, leaving out Oz uranium and bauxite. The map is clipped at the bottom … not my doing … which is as annoying as I sometimes get to be 😎. However, as the story is that China is banning certain key elements, this might affect the USA’s warmaking ability … or else it’s a giant Pentagon ruse. 🍿🍿🍿

4. Rolf’s Now and Next

HERE

“One of the PM’s stock phrases is ‘fixing the foundations.’ Is he the one to do it?

‘Starmer is already in a flat spin from which he will not recover,’ Dominic Cummings said last week (47:46). ‘He has no idea how to do the job… He will just thrash around failing.’”

JH (0713): Nor have any of them except Putin and Trump it seems.

”Another fundamental weakness is the electoral system that has given Labour such wildly disproportionate representation in Westminster. The notorious petition started a fortnight ago asking for a fresh GE will be debated in Westminster Hall on 6 January, and has already prompted the formation of an all-party Parliamentary group on fair voting; yesterday (Lib Dem) Sarah Olney’s Ten-Minute Rule Bill urging the introduction of Single Transferable Voting was passed, despite Conservative opposition.”

3. Steve dropped his overnight at 898

Four: SpaceX Wins Contract To ‘Destroy’ NASA’s International Space Station, Cicago resident upset, Eric Adams acting interestingly just now, plenty more.

Three: Navarro, Hegseth, Newsome, plenty more.

Two: Alex C you saw below, Russian army, war situation, more.

One: German lab has started to offer tests for spike proteins and plasmid DNA, Arla’s drug, Trump news, more.

2. DAD has his time-war at 899

z) Thursday [I think, since yesterday was Wednesday. But the day before yesterday was also Wednesday; so, it may be it’s Friday. I leave it to you to decide]

a) The French National Assembly brought down Michel Barnier’s government. An unprecedented move since 1962, which plunges the country into a period of great political and financial uncertainty, six months after the dissolution.

b) French President Emmanuel Macron has vowed that he will not resign no matter the result of Wednesday’s no confidence vote in Prime Minister Michel Barnier, which is likely to collapse the second Macronist government this year.

c) I am pleased to announce that Peter Navarro, a man who was treated horribly by the Deep State, or whatever else you would like to call it, will serve as my Senior Counselor for Trade and Manufacturing.

d) d) It would appear that the BBC, like Sir Kneeler, does not know what a woman is.

Thursday [1]

A bit of unwanted explanation

The two compositional issues in putting up every post can be divided thus: a) one par for the course in this game b) one unnecessarily complicated. Both take the same length of time to prepare … thereby doubling what used to be a simple operation at ggl.

*The first is reducing size/resolution of images so as not to fill up disk space … it’s called compression and each image must be done … look at the number of images used here, inc. screenshots of text. No moaning about that … it’s part of the job.

*The unnecessary bit is this overcomplication of composing and posting at WP, called block. Ggl is a dream, comparatively.

As I’m in this “between two sleeps” mode, heater off, under the covers, I’m not keen to do both the above* in the middle of the night, so have done a) resized/compressed images for tomorrow morning … er … later this morning … but b) the actual posting, is an utter pain at WP so in a few hours when I can face it, refreshed.

Meanwhile, here’s Alex C, from Steve’s 898:9b and the reason to run it expanded is at the start, where a clip of Tucker speaking in Moscow is most disturbing. See you again in a few hours.

Wednesday [12 till close of play]

(1532) Afternoon and evening, readers.

 

25. Christmas lights up chez Higham

24. Mike Davis

Cheers to my good friend Gail Slater on this crucial nomination by President Trump to lead the Justice Department’s Antitrust Division. Gail Slater is a brilliant antitrust attorney and America First populist.

23. Navarro


22. Awwww, shucks!


Truly someone said: “Evil indeed is that man who has not at least one woman to mourn for him, to weep …” or words to that effect. Well Pete H is going to have many women watching his back.

By the way, my mum’s birthday is this week.

21. IYE at 898

George Webb was mentioned elsewhere. Regarded as iffy (and flaky) in the past so not willing to go down that rabbit hole again. A lot of his stuff has been scrubbed from the web (no pun intended!)

Can’t verify this source either so fwiw, if anything …

20. Another six snippets


There was another tweet saying Jenrick was always an opportunist … so who knows?


19. Housekeeping

I’m concerned that our chaps and chapesses here who drop drops don’t get miffed at my skipping over some items, posting others. For example, Juan’s are vital but must not go on the main page just to protect the sources. We live in the present here … the comments thread in the sidebar lasts 12 comments … during that time, serious commenters should have noted the posts under which vital urls appeared which they might wish to access much later.

They’re not going anywhere, those urls, plus I have the advantage in that I can just find Juan in comments in the engine room. It’s far more piecemeal for the reader though … once it’s off the page, it’s far more difficult for him/her to find again. In short, I’ve buried it in a mass of posting. As mentioned, it’s still there but ya gotta find it yourself, ditto with NOWP.

Bloodymindedness on my part? Security, people, simply security. In previous iterations of the blog, having lists of posts and urls turned out to be too easy pickings for hostile people … it needs to be diffused.

So good droppers, there’s no question of ignoring you … it’s simply what we can afford to run openly … and what is buried. Write on paper if it’s vital … something like “Sun Dec 1: n12” or something like that … keep scraps of paper in a box or tin … I keep mine in a tray.

One thing which will not work, nor should it, is to ask me much later if I remember some link … no, I don’t … both genuinely due to failing memory … plus deliberately, as eyes watch out for this as well as yours. All this is esp. so in Starmerland.

Healthwise, I just ate, did chores (moving about), upped the sipping with lemon … already feeling better.

18. Steve at 898

On Chad Chronister, then:

Incoming White House Deputy Chief of Staff @StephenM: “Everything in the world is going to change on January 20th because the President of the United States is going to use every single legal, diplomatic and financial tool to halt the entry of all illegal aliens into this country.”

Plus war room:

Raheem, Burisma, Natalie, Liz Harrington.

17. Andy at 898

Andy also has a Neil Oliver over there.

16. Thlot pickens … at 1639


15. The drop in same-demographic babies

Plus this from Mandy in Ireland:


14. Even after everything in 12 and 13, this hangs over us

… like a sword of Damocles:


13. First half of twelve “shorts” which need posting


12. Frankly, I’m not well and must act

It’s core … heart, arteries … I can surmise a few causes:

  • Exercise dropping off
  • Water sipping dropping off
  • Too much choc, milk, dairy, that sort of thing
  • Dropping off of meat and veg
  • Taking shortcuts with packet additives
  • Winter cold contracting arteries
  • Being outside
  • Way too much internet … radiation etc.

They’re just a few possible reasons. Another way of viewing it is when I feel worst:

  • When sleep is too much, too little, body not moving
  • Lately, even std exercise causing jabs of pain, nothing too dire yet
  • Failing on the above list.

And when feeling best?

  • After two sleeps are done, of about 3.5 hours each
  • When sipping water all day, less coffee … maybe I’ll start tea
  • When in an exercise regime
  • When at least I’m physically moving, not sitting or prone
  • Better diet regime
  • Not going outside
  • Stopping time, not getting older, ha ha.

Today, I had to go out a few times for some time … was not good. All right, that’s for me to sort. Meanwhile, “just” at Leggy’s pointed to this … take it or leave it:

Wednesday [6 to 11]

(0713) Light slowly appears out there. I’m thinking, dear reader, that some of the topics in this post are maybe more important than in the first … not more important than the posters … they are preeminent … but the actual news never ends … usual horrors, some successes, some humour.

What I’m trying to say is that refining, honing our attitudes is necessary … making them more thought out than gut reaction … that life news item in particular … it does need to be balanced in our minds before we can start applying huge pressure on the evil muvvers out there. (0714)

(0953) Long break between post items … house issues, food delivery, chores, only back now, in the middle of cooking. (1026)

 

11. The Brewster buffalo


10. Not suggesting this is happening, just a thought


9. This gal truly is the goods


8. Asking questions


7. (0954) TCW and TDS



6. This Lifenews item we could easily skip past

… but I’m suggesting we, all of us, need to think it through first in depth, refine our attitude … have it right in our heads before proceeding:


Were I one of the globopsycho or Wokeleft or karen evil muvvers out there, I’d be chortling at this conundrum … which is preminent in your minds, you so-called Christians … is it more important that the western races be kept “pure” or that any newborn child at all needs to be loved?

We can’t even admonish the girl for “going near” or hobnobbing with a black or deathculter … this could easily have been an ambush on her. The question still needs asking though … how was the creep in any position to rape her in the first place? What exactly were the circumstances? In detail.

And secondly … does it matter now … after the deed has been done on her? She’s pregant, isn’t she? There it is, as they say. What next? Child born, no father about? Mixed race? Yes, we can be angry about the massed and still massing creeps in the country … yes, we should string up (legally, after trial) any politician or other Wokerati who made our situation occur in our land … yes, all of that.

But how does that help the girl? Or help her child the Wokerati peer group is telling to have easily aborted? That question won’t go away, will it?

I saw an old pic (days of yore) on X of a nurse gleefully taking the child from the mother in a hospital and laying him/her next to the other dozen or so others for adoption. These days … possibly by two gays?

See, these questions all do need resolving … in reality for a start, on the ground … plus in us becoming clear what our precise attitude should be. Which principle takes precedence? To keep the native race pure in order to preserve our culture, our heritage (a vital question, not to be dismissed, given the hordes being allowed in, wrecking of our nativeness) … as against the New Testament “every child loved, love thy neighbour”?

Or maybe the libertarian “none of my business, do as thou wilt, no matter how wrong, not my problem”?

The last thing we need is a Theocracy of any kind, a council of Ian Paisleys or Gerry Adamses or Welbys or Bergoglios pontificating on and/or burning at the stake any sinner … or worse … a shariah council of imams deciding whether to chop bits off someone, stone him/her or immolate in cages. No thanks.

I’d suggest, ladies and gentlemen, that we truly need to think all this through … starting with just how to protect our daughters. Again … how do we protect our daughters, reduce this horror from happening?
