Vegas is symptomatic of short term greed

 

Also symptomatic of takeover by the asset-stripping mind … the predatory side of capitalism. The first video is by a most disgruntled real or AI voice … it goes on and in, ostensibly point by point, but actually repeating the same theme over and over.

So why watch it, why expebd this time? Because it has some great turns of phrase, succinct, along the way … so much so that I’m going to watch again and write a few down. And the malaise it describes is very much across the west today in this low moral compass society.

That was that but when a second video (below) emerged, I stopped, sat up and relooked at this thing.

Haven’t looked at this one yet but shall now over coffee.

10. Moosh corner


9. Why did she resign?

There are her stated reasons … and then there was Donny and the GOP passing her over for prime positions. Why? Incompetence? Maybe, couldn’t quite cut it, lacked the base, the funds … but there were also some dissident positions she’d taken.


8. Collusion?


7. Chemo and cancer


6. Over at OoL

The mystery woman at the centre of the “scandal”

Couldn’t understand why she kept posting and had such a huge number following her utterances, why no pushback from those in high places.

Friday [12 till close of play]

… coz it’s me, my fellow lil tackers. Thing is though, I’m thinking of us in my day … hardly needed much defending … but today? Hmmmm … maybe there’s something to it, they seem motherised in single mother households or wimpy men agreeing to horrible things for the boy and govt taking an unhealthy interest.

Assuming that, like me, all Google/you tube offerings at HQ are “server stopped responding” just now … this might be Ggl YT itself or else is an HQ prob, an internal gremlin. Whatever, expect disruptions today, patient patrons.

Meanwhile, here’s something which was on X:


Mary Miles Minter (born Juliet Reilly; April 25, 1902[1][2]– August 4, 1984) was an American actress, and one of the leading ladies who established the early Hollywood star system.[3] She appeared in 53 silent films from 1912 to 1923.

In 1922, Minter was involved in a scandal surrounding the murder of director William Desmond Taylor, for whom she professed her love. Gossip implicated her mother, former actress Charlotte Shelby, as the murderer, and as a result Minter’s reputation was tarnished. She gave up her film career in 1923.[4]

JH: Tales such as that of Juliet Reilly here abounded in the tween wars period and tragedies also abounded, esp. for young women … a most interesting period.

Fri Mat a bit earlier

 

“The 1960s saw a plethora of two kinds of spy movies: the outrageous semi-serious James Bond ripoffs (like the Flint and Matt Helm movies) and the very dry, methodical ones that were more talk than action (mostly John Le Carre and Alistair MacLean adaptations).

This is one of the better examples of the talky thrillers. Not that the movie is boring… there is lots of good, cat-and-mouse dialogue courtesy of playwright Harold Pinter. George Segal plays the hero, an undercover spy who goes to West Berlin to find out who killed his predecessor… who was on the trail of modern-day Nazis.

Segal has surprisingly little difficulty in finding himself right in the thick of things… being captured and drugged by the baddies… and even having time for a romance with a German schoolteacher who may know more than she lets on.

Parts of the movie reminded me a lot of the classic “The Third Man”… which I think the director was trying to emulate at times.

Well, this is not quite a classic of that caliber but it is a very well-written and smoothly-paced “old school” thriller. Segal makes a very cool lead… witty and sarcastic, yet with a vulnerable side, too.”

Friday [6 to 10]

(1126) Time flying at breakneck speed today, seriously dangerous speed. (1143)

 

10. Moosh corner and those bakerlite days


9. The ole gun buyback scam


Had a quiet word with Kobie earlier … eyes in the back of her head, her self-defence in general. Listened but is young, might already have taken care of it.

8. Lord Toby with Mark Ellse

… on Minimum Wage:

“The minimum wage is one of those policies people feel obliged to praise. It sounds humane. It sounds fair. It sounds as though it protects the weak. And, above all, it comes wrapped in the modern political vocabulary of equality – the one idea nobody now dares question. What is remarkable is not that the Left supports it, but that the Right has adopted the same assumptions. The belief that anything labelled ‘equal’ must be good has quietly replaced the older conservative understanding that equality can be either a virtue or a mistake, depending on how it is achieved.”

JH: Worth a read, methinks.

7. Evil muvvers behind the Ukie war

“Two weeks ago I commented on websites offering news on govt policy re benefits and tax. One I noticed is actually the site of a liquidated company, there are others which look like independent news sources using very similar graphics. A goggle search reveals that these are govt operated sites masquerading as independent.”
