No sooner does a post go up on nature abhoring a vacuum than I take a quick look at my feature stock and there’s a total vacuum, unless it’s a YT on the ridiculousness of absurdism and what seems the young Scot’s reply … too heavy around cuppa time, so how about some naughty sweeties instead?
(0742) Forbidding and foreboding, low, dark-grey sky out there but who cares, right? We’re all singing and dancing to Taylor Swift, like hordes in The Mummy chanting Impotep (sic), Impotep, k*ll, k*ll, k*ll. (0813)

Kamala Grew Up Around Terrorists
The untold story of Kamala’s grandfather and her childhood in Africa.
“..On the last leg of her African tour, Vice President Kamala Harris paid a visit to an otherwise unremarkable office building in Zambia. Her staff and local embassy personnel had spent a great deal of time looking for it and everyone was hoping it was the right place.
Kamala, with her Jamaican and Indian roots, needed a tangible connection to Africa to win over African-American voters and convince them that she was one of them. And everyone settled on the office building as being the next best thing because it was the former spot of the building where she had once stayed as a little girl with her Indian mother on a visit to her grandfather.
President Hakainde Hichilema welcomed her as “a daughter of our own country, someone who spent time here in her early years.”
Kamala responded by launching into a story about having visited “Zambia, Mr. President, as a young girl when my grandfather worked here” as “an advisor to Zambia’s first president, Kenneth Kaunda” to “serve as a director of relief measures and refugees…”

You wait ages for a euthanasia Bill and then three come along at once.
First was the ‘Assisted Dying for Terminally Ill Adults (Scotland) Bill’introduced on 27 March 2024 by Liam McArthur MSP (Lib Dem). There is no specific limit to the sufferer’s expected remaining life: ‘a person is terminally ill if they have an advanced and progressive disease, illness or condition from which they are unable to recover and that can reasonably be expected to cause their premature death.’ The Bill does not define the term ‘premature’ but the World Health Organisation seems to be working with age 70 as a marker, outside Africa ……….

3. Nature abhors a vacuum
There is a very real Gestalt reaction going on in every human’s mind … every human of a certain age who does see the issues but his/her mind flatly refuses to accept even its possibility … let me repeat this meme:
An example of my own refusal is the picture in DAD 851:8a at the end of the link … I’m simply not going to run it here at HQ, though in keeping with our practice, it can still be found if you bother to follow links and pointers. Whole point is that that way, I preserve my sanity, control my anger and quest for revenge on those savages … it’s a mental health thing in order to be able to carry on.
One example of Gestalt oft mentioned is a broken circle which the human mind wants completed, closed. So the mind closes it … it’s also whence the idea of “closure”, say after a tragedy. The whole point of Christ dying on the cross was that it provided closure, both in mind and in metaphysical reality … it cut the nexus between ongoing outrage => revenge => further outrage => reaction … and so on. It removes the necessity for endless blood sacrifice because Christ’s sacrifice atones.
Now, you can say all you like that the whole thing is bollox and have a good Wednesday, I reply … however, this thing is ancient, it’s part of an ancient war across dimensions … human arrogance asserts its own gestalt closure and says that the closed human physical world where the only reality is that which can be observed by the five human senses … is the only perception possible. Very gestalt.
The obvious retort is … what about animals who perceive that which humans cannot? And extending that … who said, anyway, that the only senses possible are the five human ones … who made that rule? Gestalt says, in the case of a rationalist, a secularist, an engineer for example, that we just ignore those other realities, those other pesky inconveniences which don’t fit the general narrative … just ignore em, as Sgt Holcombe told the court in Perry Mason’s Purloined Parrot story.
If you create a west based on Christian precepts, however well or not humans stick to those precepts, esp. the enemies of humans (today’s globopsycho, myrmidons, karens and wokerati) … then, far from Klaus and Two Tier’s communist utopia, you have in fact created a vacuum into which rushes the Great Wind of Eventual Human Oblivion.
And that oblivion can be seen in the Ukraine for example, and in the middle-east. Talk to the fathers and mothers of those slain in those places … and soon to be in Britain, North America and in the antipodes … talk to them about this communist utopia they brainwash kids and the simple with … the wonderful image western “leadership” has in store for us … tell the victims to ignore the slaughter, the human misery, the degradation of trafficked children for profit … very gestalt, innit, to obey, comply and ignore just who the monsters are?
What does a shellshocked soldier do upon his demobbing? He’s out of his brain, sorry to say, he’s dissociated. And what do the “leaders” do? The monsters and their puppets? They ignore returned service men and women, leaving them on the street whilst housing the new satanic army … at taxpayer expense. Speak to Reform UK about that situation … or about children taught pron in schools under the guise of rainbow.
Toodles has a link … have a look around the 10 minute mark or so. Says it all.
Look, patient regulars and occasionals … at what point does the west say, “Enough of all this sh*te!” … ? This whole gestalt conundrum?
2. DAD drop today at 851, plus 852
a) Evil, in the form of a giant Lilth, comes to Bordeaux.
b) France has a plan to recycle some of its nuclear waste and to turn it into table forks, doorknobs, and saucepans.
c) Alexander Van der Bellen, president of Austria, has decided to betray the will of the people by tasking Chancellor Karl Nehammer, head of the centre-right People’s Party (ÖVP), rather than the election-winning FPÖ’s Herbert Kickl, with forming a government. The ÖVP secured 26.3% of the votes on September 29th, while the national-conservative anti-immigration Freedom Party (FPÖ) received 28.8%.

15. Time machine
Another of these hiding to nothing posts … neither the experience talked about nor its music, I’d imagine, was also the experience of those patrons/readers for whom the past was sport, concerts, study, hiking, travel, marriage, pets, allotments, friends … nor would I expect anyone to like the two songs below … for me though, they’re special..
Maybe I might come at this thing from a different angle. Imagine that some kind soul was able to transport you back to a year of your choice … time machine alone, not a geographical mover … plus you can’t know the future under this deal at any stage … the upside though is that you can take your current wisdom with you … old head on younger shoulders.
You don’t have to, you can stay here in 2024 if you wish. But it’s there on offer … take it or leave it. Ah, say you … but if I do go back just prior to one of my monumental foul-ups, can I change the outcome?
Yes, of course, the future does change for you … but as you have no memory of the foul-up itself, as the future is not yours to know, then it’s just your current level of wisdom you travel back with. So, which year shall we drop you off at?
…..
I’d personally choose, upon reflection, either 1974 or 1996 … the latter for personal, family reasons … shan’t go into those but the other, 1974 … yes, it would be to drop back into that lifestyle again when society itself was still not too far gone, plus, with this level of awareness today, just maybe I could help make a difference.
My greatest pleasure in those young, wild days, was road trips … went on plenty and we had the music then, through the cassettes, to go with it … plethora of “road” bands … JJ did go with me on each trip too:
The music over the next ten years was going to be superlative for “born to be wild types” … I’d have asked a gal to go with me … grand tour and all that.
…..
Now to the second song and this is the one which knocks me around, as it was directly my situation. In the lyrics below, the part in blue I very much agree with, it was my life … the faded part though is Jackson Browne’s life, not mine:
Lookin’ out at the road rushin’ under my wheels
Lookin’ back at the years gone by like so many summer fields
In ’65 I was seventeen and runnin’ up 101
I don’t know where I’m runnin’ now, I’m just runnin’ on
Runnin’ on empty
(Runnin’ on) runnin’ blind
(Runnin’ on) runnin’ into the sun
But I’m runnin’ behind
Gotta do what you can just to keep your love alive
Tryin’ not to confuse it with what you do to survive
In ’69 I was twenty-one and I called the road my own
I don’t know when that road turned onto the road I’m on
Chorus … Runnin’ on empty etc.
Everyone I know
Everywhere I go
People need some reason to believe
I don’t know about anyone but me
If it takes all night
That’d be alright
If I can get you to smile before I leave
Lookin’ out at the road rushin’ under my wheels
I don’t know how to tell you all just how crazy this life feels
I look around for the friends that I used to turn to to pull me through
Lookin’ into their eyes, I see them runnin’ too
Chorus
Honey, you really tempt me, you know, the way you look so kind
I’d love to stick around, but I’m runnin’ behind
(Runnin’ on)
You know I don’t even know what I’m hopin’ to find
(Runnin’ blind)
Runnin’ into the sun but I’m runnin’ behind
The notion of leaving her behind is not mine, the notion of having to find that fool’s gold … that was never my thang. Opportunities arose every so often, came from nowhere, sometimes I thought why not, now is the time, upped sticks and went … but always with a plan at the other end. Usually between gals.
The person I’ve known longest in life virtually grew up behind me, making her way, just as I was doing … her hubby once called me a “drifter”. Maybe, maybe not … I always had a plan but if an offer arose which one could not, as they say, refuse … then I took it.
That’s a bit different to Jackson B … he was searching, I wasn’t … if there was even a half chance, then I thought why not. What needs doing, I’d ask, to make it happen? Cost doesn’t matter within reason.
I’m thinking though that the frenetic pace of the song from the get-go … yep, that’s lil ole Jimbo all right … two speeds, stop and go. In that, I’m similar to him, also in his intensity, his slight seriousness, his watchfulness.
I met him once you know … had to have been mid-80s … he was with Daryl Hannah … I was more interested in him. I asked him about his wife … I really did not know the story.
”She committed suicide.”
Gulp, end of conversation after the niceties.

3. The issue “in these days” is whom to trust
Part of that is waiting 🍿🍿🍿but even if they do, too many are still not self-trained enough to pick up on red flags, symbols … also on expected beat-ups in order to blacken.
There’s a current example of MAGA finding Trump’s frying activity amusing and heartening, in contrast to Team Harris calling it demeaning and shaming. The whole thing reveals something about each. In her case, go back to Kavanaugh. Though she, Harris, was too thick and lazy to do due diligence, there was some evidence Brett had been a bit naughty but it was swamped by her obvious lawfare.
We need mental data banks … anyone remember Witness for the Prosecution (Christie)? Moving onto the Jesus is King thing at her rally … what if there’d not been a Christian shouter present? How many at her rally heard her response and saw them muscling them out, at a time when churches are burning, along with the history inside?
The groundwork was laid long ago … where do we want to start? American Pie … I was listening to a reaction video last night and immediately picked up on “if the bible tells you so”. Yeah? Which books then? OT? NT? “Father, Son and Holy Ghost … they took the last train to the coast.” JFK, RFK and MLK according to many left and other pundits. Mocking according to Christians, otherwise replacement icons … and here’s the son of one of those currently on the stage.
Uh huh … throw in other Don Maclean activity, e.g. with Tuesday Weld, in that infamous hotel … throw in that every era has its Jezebel, Semiramis, witch (Kate Bush), every era has its chief SpAd too with the ear of the boss … Colonel House, Kissinger, Cheney … the “work’s” still being done to divert kids and others away, play on their naivety and kool aid drinking. Keep wars bubbling.
Any time a singer is connected to Laurel Canyon … that brings in drug dealer Mama Cass, paedo (daughter testimony) Phillips. The joke is calling these creeps Mamas and Papas … exact opposite of wholesome. Deep state military at the canyon … why Woodstock? So Phillips could coordinate the pushing of narcs on the kids, girls dissolute, STDs, the Pill … Sodom and Gomorrah revisited … only a Christian would mention it … a bible-read opponent would know all that, but ain’t sayin’ nuffink.
And so it goes on as the sun rises here at 0719. We could go on and on with snippets, little vignettes … at least I could. Why me? Firstly open to Christian thinking, secondly, ferreting and looking at the ferreting of others … triggers all over the place. Ignore it because your a priori mindset refuses to accept that it does not fit life experiences? Sheltered?
For a couple of days, we’ve had something up about Elon … the collator doesn’t trust him, gave reasons … too left field? So what’s with this current biz, also the illumined triangle Tulsi? Again … 🍿🍿🍿… eyes and ears open.

a. So we still have a navy, I do hope all the bits and bobs work as advertised and that the commanders are sufficiently capable. Big exercise in the North Sea eh?

a) In Armenia, archaeologists have unearthed the remains of a Christian church dating back to the 4th century AD, considered one of the oldest ever discovered.
b) The police immediately understood when they came across the driver at night that they had to stop him quickly. In the vehicle, a minor aged 13, refused, and was forced to stop his vehicle in the streets of Nîmes around midnight. But once the car was immobilized, the young man decided to flee on foot.
c) A quarter of town halls in England are likely to need emergency bailouts from the UK’s central government to avoid bankruptcy in the coming years, according to a survey of council chief executives that lays bare the parlous state of local authority finances.
