17. Vox on the latest Executive v Judiciary standoff

https://voxday.net/2025/01/24/and-so-it-begins-5

“Of course, this is going to be a battle. I suspect the ban will be upheld in a limited capacity, so that those designated “enemy combatants” will be barred from conveying citizenship on their children born in the United States. Then, of course, it’s a simple matter to clarify that the term “enemy combatant” includes everyone who has physically invaded the country.

However, it would be much more effective if President Trump simply ordered that none of his executive orders are subject to judicial branch review, which is of course his legal right under the Constitutional principle of the separation of powers. His other recourse would be to declare martial law and suspend the Constitution under the very valid principle of the ongoing foreign invasion of the United States.”

16. Housekeeping

… coming up later, other items first. As of 1128, ill in bed, hoping it will not last, needs thinking back as to what I ate and drank this morning.

11. DAD drops at 948

The French Senate has voted to end lifetime benefits previously granted to former presidents and prime ministers – hostages Say They Were Hidden in UN Shelter – the Ministry of the Interior, the Loire-Atlantique prefecture and the national police struggled to agree in the middle of the week, to describe the police operation organized Tuesday in Nantes – two or tree years ago the large warehouse of the InterMarchë supermarket (about 5km N of my village) closed with the loss of 222 jobs … for what use this large building could be adapted … appears that it will be used to produce items for (so called) mini-nuclear generators.

 

Having had a look at crocheting, right, and at knitting … thought I’d have a look at quilting, what could possibly go wrong? Well, for a start … do you stitch in the ditch or beside the ditch, do you use 5 inch or other patches, bought in packs or from scraps?

And there are all sorts of genteel wars going on. Do you use a long arm or standard? Where to plunge in for my first quilting vid, maybe my last?

Helppppp!

Well … I just happen to have a picture of a friend’s scrappy quilt from a few years back:

Some of you longtime blog visitors will know her … Danish lady living in Scotland, with a Welshman given to helmets, whisky and wearing legirons.

(0630) Morning all, lovely stormy weather, raining inside the humble abode here. (0631)

9. Bits and pieces

8. Toodles corner

I sent this to Toods:

… and she replied:

”Mobile Civic Center once known as The Mobile Auditorium…during which I have seen and listened to several bands, musicians, watched plays, circuses, worked with America’s Junior Miss, attended Mardi Gras Balls….

They had started taking it down already. Why they didn’t keep it in good repair I will never know.  There was a theater to the side of it, not in the round. It was nice at one time.  I didn’t mind the auditorium. It was fine in its day and for the town … for Mobile at the time. 

It was modern but not a horrible modern. Had some interesting features.  

We were happy with it at the time … although sad for the many old homes done away with. At the time, rough people were dwelling in them or several empty ones. At some point, the downtown area revived in that area which was good.  Further west but not too far,  the old sections were still intact among a certain kind that surrounded parts of the old area.  Still  nice in that area … nice sections. Well the roads are terrible. Oak tree roots are a problem plus Mobile, like other towns, stopped taking care of itself in the last 30 years! 

Anyway the old town homes that are still intact and vibrant hoods, I used to give tours when a Trail Maid. I liked doing that!”

Now, Trail Maids … I have posted on them before … our Toodles was one:

Incidentally, here’s a picture either of or by Toodles, can’t be sure:

7. mRNA vaxxes with added AI danger … charming

(0027) If you chaps and chapesses are agreeable, I’m finding this method of sleeping better … drop off earlier, which means not being awake most of the evening, waking for an hour in the dead of night, checking things and “doing” NOWP plus this post, zonking again after an hour, waking maybe 0700, starting the day. It also requires a short snooze middle of the day. AKH plus Toodles next post. (0119)

 

6. IYE in comments here, plus much more

5. Mandy on Sinn Fein

Mandy stood as a sort of free speech Reform type party in Eire.

(1659) Evening all. Asking our patrons to refrain from suggesting other fates for the creep, not today anyway … Rowley and other plod need only a pretext.

21. Steve at 947

20. Tempted to comment but shan’t

 

Weeellllll, as I was a bit awkward yesterday about Butch Cassidy for certain reasons, probably would not have been diplomatic to run a different filum, plus we’re out of time, with evening politics coming up. How about torpedoes?

(1439) Afternoon all, post-prandial politics below … let’s go. (1504)

 

19. This may turn out to be bigger

… than all the other mass of issues … there might be the most enormous giant con of humanity going on, esp. if you are at least open to the notion of the Annunaki. Then again, it may turn out to be a nothingburger.

18. Can’t agree

… maybe it was tongue in cheek … in the Caribbean, it’s all the Americas, plural. Over here though, there are many old, proud, substantial nations bordering the pond.

17. Agreed

(1218) Way too much happening on both sides of the pond just now for me to sort, trim and reduce individual items in this post into a pretty, sorted order … so I’m afraid it’s a mish-mash of cross-pond chunks, chaps and chapesses. (1241)

 

16. A few more

15. On and on

14. It never ends

13. It continues

12. First of the “all in together” items, more on the way
