Friday [7 to 10]

(0858) One issue at this time of day, from a blogger’s point of view, is that it’s almost entirely Canadian or female in general, a bit earlier was Antipodaen and the nightowls of the US. Britain does not really kick in till midmorn. From our GB 0500 to around 0900 it’s mainly girls and ostriches from other countries. (0914)

 

10. Canada, just like everywhere else in the west


9. Filth in schools, teachers of low moral compass


8. Fungible money


7. What have the young to look forward to?

Wasted qualifications, deep in debt?


I feel so sorry for these lasses, just as I do for lads now manufacturing has gone and they slide into a life on the dole or zero contract.

6. Ostrich farm


Jason Lavigne on X:

Universal Ostrich Farm Update: What the Record Shows About the COVID Research, the $13.44M Grant, and the Farm’s Participation.

COVID-19 Antibody Research was Underway in Sherbrooke, Quebec The Canadian biotech firm Immune Biosolutions (Sherbrooke, QC) ran a COVID-19 immunotherapy program (antibody-based), moving from pre-clinical toward clinical development. Source https://immunebiosolutions.com/en/immune-biosolutions-receives-c13-44-million-to-develop-and-biomanufacture-its-promising-immunotherapy-to-treat-covid-19-and-its-variants/

Ottawa Funded the Program with a Strategic Innovation Fund Award The Government of Canada confirms up to $13.44 million to Immune Biosolutions “to help develop and advance its therapeutic candidate from pre-clinical studies through to Phase II clinical trials.” Source https://ised-isde.canada.ca/site/ised/en/programs-and-initiatives/health-emergency-readiness-canada/publications-health-emergency-readiness-canada/backgrounder-government-canada-investments-biomanufacturing-vaccine-and-therapeutics-ecosystem

What UOF Says About Its Involvement Universal Ostrich Farm (UOF) has publicly stated it collaborated with Immune Biosolutions—describing provision of antigens/antibody work—but also says the collaboration was “abruptly terminated.” Source https://saveourostriches.com/press-releases/official-statement-from-universal-ostrich-farms-inc-may21-2025/

Reporting in The Tyee also quotes a UOF representative stating that the farm collaborated with Immune Biosolutions in 2021 and that the relationship ceased thereafter. Source https://thetyee.ca/News/2025/05/16/BC-Ostrich-Farm-Far-Right-Crusade/

How it Ended UOF’s statement and related posts indicate that the collaboration was halted and that Immune Biosolutions retained some effective antibodies from the project. These are UOF’s claims; they are not independently corroborated by company press or government documents. Source https://saveourostriches.com/press-releases/official-statement-from-universal-ostrich-farms-inc-may21-2025/

Bottom Line The Universal Ostrich Farm was not a rogue experiment. Public records and statements show it was reported to be working with Immune Biosolutions in Sherbrooke, Quebec. This biotech company received $13.44 million from Canada’s Strategic Innovation Fund to develop COVID-19 immunotherapies. The farm has said it participated in this research effort, providing ostrich antibodies as part of a government-backed program exploring new treatments for Canadians.

While the grant money went directly to Immune Biosolutions (not the farm), UOF has publicly stated it was involved as a contractor, and that the collaboration was terminated in 2025 with no payments received. This all occurred prior to the CFIA detecting H5N1 on the farm in December 2024. According to the farm, the collaboration with Immune Biosolutions was not formally terminated until 2025.

By the time the CFIA moved in, the research relationship had already been severed. A flock once tied to a government-backed COVID research program is now treated solely as a disease risk. That contradiction deserves scrutiny.

7. This from IYE

I can see is going to be an iconic piece, so I’m running it here (from comments), on X and saving it in an IYE file at UHC-WP for quick later reference. Also one of Yuri Bezmenov’s later.

I’d been on about the AFD declaring TPUSA a terrorist group and I asked: “Whaaaaa?


6. On Quora, a guy called Marc Towersap

… was looking at bands or artists people have lost all respect for:

“Loss of respect meaning, I did like/love them, but over time, the band or key members of the band said/done things that, well, I disagree with to say it diplomatically. It won’t be KISS neither, while I liked some of their songs, I didn’t really love the band, so losing all respect for really didn’t mean losing a lot!

So no, Rolling Stones aren’t here, they are still out touring and killing it live.

For me, my opinion ONLY! The answer is… U2

Now, I wasn’t a true fan when they were starting out, I was aware of them (going to college in Colorado Springs, how could I not be aware of Under a Blood Red Sky. FYI, it was filmed at Red Rocks amphitheater, a little over an hour drive north. Amazing venue, if you love concerts, you gotta go see a concert there!!!) I was a metalhead back then, so no, songs from War and before I mostly was unaware of.

Then, I got tired of metal. Iron Maiden went a direction that I really didn’t care for.( I did go back though and realized I missed out!!!). Metallica, I did love the black album but kinda burned out on the songs. Judas Priest, while I admit to myself I loved Turbo Lover (the song), I didn’t care for the other songs. Black Sabbath, Ozzy to Dio to Gillan to ??, I stopped listening after Born Again. And I freakin hated hair metal.

So what to listen to? I am and will always be a music lover, but I do get bored, I have to find new music. So I switched from metal to punk and alternative. And discovered U2! OMG, freakin loved The Unforgettable Fire!! Went back and discovered War, OMG! Then when Joshua Tree came out, played it so much I got tired of it.

Saw them live the first time, great show! Rattle and Hum, I started to fall out of love, did like a lot of the songs, but it was a mix of live songs, covers, and some new songs. Saw that tour too, great show! But Achtung Baby? nope. And Bono seemed to let things get to his head, and that I really detested. Maybe it was an act, but if it was, he did it quite well, because I detested him more and more!

Then that whole push our new album out whether we wanted it or not. Never seen them again after Rattle & Hum tour. I’ve never listened to anything after Rattle. Kinda don’t listen to earlier U2 as well.

FYI, I did go back and re-discover what I missed metalwise! love slipknot, gojira, jinjer, mastodon, lamb of god, sepultura, and meshuggah. always seeking new stuff! just not U2 apparently!”

Thing with Quora is it seems to be about music in this corner of the sphere … largely “sort of lefty Boomer era, reminiscing” … hardly overtly political though probably agenda deluded all the same, unknowingly. Thus these would be the last ones to wake up to people like Bono, Phil Collins, Bob Geldof.

As for metalheads? That’s another post.

5. What’s in a symbol?


It’s an interesting turnaround, if verified. If you’ll also run with EK’s horned handsign being satanic, whatever other interpretation is put on it, plus her Knights of Malta Cross, then we have there extreme Catholicism. I do know that these Knights are dead against Masonry.

Hmmmmm … wonder where that actually leaves us? Go back to MM’s article, url posted by IYE yesterday. Curious.

20. IYE with MM (url in comments)

“People are having trouble understanding how this guy managed to go from one of the most dangerous jihadists in the world in 2017, with a $10 million bounty on his head, to President of Syria in 2024 and now UN delegate, hobnobbing with world rulers in New York on the anniversary of 911. That’s quite a turnaround in just seven years. It is even harder to understand since they all but admit he was installed in Syria by the US/Israel, the same people that had allegedly been seeking him for years.”

Just to add to that, look up Operation Cyclone, which at least until a few years back, was still openly searchable … the real story about the CIA involvement. Now the Ukraine … both the CIA and NATO were in there at Maidan … NATO being the weapons wielders but the really sick killings … they had CIA input, along with Azov type gangs in charge of those.
