I get the impression that there are some on Dash Cat who are rather hostile to DB’s Cat. I don’t know why…

Simple, Cassie- Half of these folk you describe are angry folk (ranging from huffing Red-Faced Guards to self-declared anti-boomers to “It’s all X’s Fault!” types) who are far more intolerant of dissenting views than their proclamations of valuing ‘freedom’ would have you believe.

The other half is Grigory’s sock drawer.

Both groups revel in being able to grief others (especially certain designated targets like the Gang of Four[ty Thousand-gazillion-rosie-Lizzie] without being chastened by the sting of active moderation…

Admittedly Rex, rollmops look atrocious in a jar.
But they taste surprisingly good.
I think I had them at a Jewish guy’s place years ago served the way Cassie suggested.
Although it might gave been on blinis(?) with cream cheese or yoghurt or something.
I scoffed quite a few.

Reacher has always been a bit woke. The villains are usually white rural rednecks. Reacher generally “saves” some innocent liberal type.

The early ones were pretty good, even had nasty muzzie terrorists, a woman too, who Reacher gladly snaps her neck (Gone Tomorrow); the ones with him still in the army are good too. I like the Americana aspect of them; it’s a real shame the last couple went haywire.

Apparently there is series being made with this guy as Reacher.

Stephen Ward certainly had a varied background fleeing from his upper middle-class origins as the son of a Vicar married to a woman who had vague artistocratic connections (as the term was then). Something went wrong for him. Not a thousand miles away from Milo Y as we see today, a lost soul, but Milo has reclaimed his early religion. Ward didn’t.

Of the two girls, Keeler was the more classically beautiful and reserved, Rice Davies was pert and salacious. Their histories too are worth chasing up online. Plenty there. Young girls from shaky backgrounds arriving at seventeen in the big city looking for excitement. Same story basically as the Epstein girls a generation later.

Thanks, Johanna.

Are you looking for new digs? Much available, or is it all ridiculously priced, as it is here?

The market is ridiculously overpriced and the COVID lockdown has depressed supply – selling is a PITA because of the restrictions on the number of people allowed in the property at one time. The owner can’t even adjourn to a coffee shop for an hour while people are being shown through, so presumably they have to go and sit in their car up the street or something.

I am keeping an eye on the listings but am in no hurry. With the lockdown, being in a motel in the middle of town is actually better than being stuck in an apartment in the suburbs somewhere. I can wander around town foraging for food anytime I like quite legally. Also, there is a kitchen in the motel which I can use if the desire to cook comes over me.

Tonight I am the only guest in this usually bustling business, poor owner must be miserable, although she puts a good face on things. There have been a few other customers since I’ve been here, but never more than three or four rooms at a time, and often less.

OTOH, the Asian restaurants are doing a roaring takeaway trade just across the road – talk about winners and losers.

Hope all is well with you and yours.

Plenty of sane people at DashCat, Lizzie. Some even sashay in here!

And there are a lot of interesting links and viewpoints.

I’ve never said otherwise, Calli. But there is also a good flock of crazies as well. This site is more discursive in general and feels more comfortable, as I am less under unwarranted attack here. I’m on record as saying I am happy to frequent both and comment on both as the moment seizes me. And the only person who will stop me doing that on either site is the site owner.

Thanks, Joh. We are all in fine fettle, mainly because we have very lax restrictions in SA, which no-one heeds anyway… apart from masks. South Ozzies seem to love their masks, which is odd since we have few, if any cases.

The real estate market is roaring ahead: houses in our beautiful little town are selling instantly, often before the property is even listed. This bodes well for Daughter and SiL. They’re listing this week. Hope it goes well for them: it will mean a few extras for our beautiful new home.

Stop being an idiot who treats everyone else like an idiot.

rosie is very well known on the cat/s for flaunting her, ‘Covid Rules Don’t Stop Me. Why do you all keep complaining about lockdown rules? Just break them like I do!’, smarminess.

Lately she’s also been getting off on rubbing in the faces of everyone else, ‘I baby sit how & where I want, cos I’m super-rosie!’, which will really be pissing off those grandmother lurkers who’ve been kept away from their new born grandkids up to their walking & talking, which makes this new retrospective law a bloody tempting thing to throw at the likes of the rosies out there.

The real trouble such people don’t account for is that, at some point, everyone can become more trouble to do favours for than it’s worth, to those who keep pulling them out of the quicksand they so arrogantly stomp into.

Friday at work (which I took the day of) was wear it purple day. “Let’s start a conversation”.

Such fucking Orwellian BS. You don’t want a conversation, you want to shove your perverted world view down everyone’s throats.

The centrepiece of the day was a story about a 15 year old boy who came out as gay, got a belting by his dad and then went to police.

This is what a real conversation about this might go like:

This never fucking happened, it’s propaganda.

What 15 year old can reasonably make any determination about their sexuality?

What 15 year old can properly consider their sexuality when immersed in homosexual propaganda?

What Dad wouldn’t flip their lid on finding out that their kid just nominated themselves to be predated into a lifestyle of alcoholism, drug addiction, assault and sexual assault?

I have long passed the point of making excuses for AdamD over Bird.
He is either asleep at the wheel or condones it.
Either way, he owns it.
What is more disgusting is the people who definitely read what Bird serves up and give him a free pass, solely because he is rabid anti-vax.
Don’t give me the “yeah, but nah, but I scroll him” excuse.
The standard you walk past …
In any case (and don’t ask how I know this), I am 99.6% sure it is attracting scrutiny.
Not criminal issues at this stage, but I wouldn’t want to be seen as the publisher of it.

So you are either projecting an awful lot of insecurity and personal/class envy here.

Or you are just a mean and vicious individual with a personal vendetta.

Very likely both.

But still, at least you are revelling in your perceived (and entirely self-inflicted) victimhood, and not playing ‘I Can’t Believe It’s Not Faulty!’

First, lets let everyone see what triggered your silly smears -https://newcatallaxy.blog/2021/08/28/open-thread-weekend-28-aug-2021/comment-page-6/#comment-6946

Now, how on earth did you jump to “class envy” from what I posted?

Easy. You had no reasonable justification for joining in with, The Mob That Attacks The Un-Cowed, so you dragged out the old ‘envy monster’, and not knowing class if it covered your embarrassment at a garden party, you thought chucking in ‘class’ would convince others of the lie of ‘envy’ you so desperately need others to see, as the squirrel they must chase.

Abstract
Non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) is a syndrome diagnosed in patients with symptoms that respond to removal of gluten from the diet, after celiac disease and wheat allergy have been excluded. NCGS has been related to neuro-psychiatric disorders, such as autism, schizophrenia and depression. A singular report of NCGS presenting with hallucinations has been described in an adult patient. We report a pediatric case of a psychotic disorder clearly related to NCGS and investigate the causes by a review of literature.

From the shrieking on DashCat, it would appear that the repeated dropping of ‘rooting a Kitteh’ and boasting of trying to pork Asian girls half his age bunker-busters have made the remaining grey matter in _roomba’s pinheaded bonce sizzle up nicely. An example:

Hehe Cate’s in for a few swings, eh JC?
Cate of the “dead dad” story – the same as M0ntifa’s “dead dog” story?
Begat a WANKER like you??!!?
Sad.

This will be good.

Oh, yeeees!
The eyes are starting to roll back in the head already.
The weirdest thing about that whole thing was nominating a two-week deadline on the Viet chick.
What’s special about two weeks time?
Is it Chinese New Year or Vietnamese Passover or something?

Changing the subject Mr Dragger.
A bloke I know has been trying to bulk up.
And he is.
But he is starting to go off at the slightest thing.
Could be lockdown.
But I am worried he is on the ‘roids.
How can you tell for sure?

Phhht rickw.
Faulty reckons Sinc had been at that game for years. Opening old threads and “modifying, adding, copying or deleting” Faulty’s pearls of wisdom to make the Faultster look bad.
Which Sinc so would have given a fuck about.

Sancho, there are few obnoxious DHs about on the Cat forums but of the truly, mentally effected I could only identify two, MV and Birdie.
The rest?
Meh, just run of the mill loonies.

Skynews didn’t show Biden looking at his watch as part of their news.
It was shown in their opinion shows.
Did other news outlets censor it?
Pretty sure most networks jumped on every bit of perceived embarrassment perpetrated by Trump.
I wonder what’s changed.

Biden snapping about Afghanistan questions at the FEMA HQ stunt before storming off was embarrassing.

The footage of the Taliban flying a Blackhawk with the chap dangling from the rope is pretty chilling.

Mr. Panzer, overnight:

A bloke I know has been trying to bulk up.
And he is.
But he is starting to go off at the slightest thing.
Could be lockdown.
But I am worried he is on the ‘roids.
How can you tell for sure?

Allegedly and apparently and it is said by some, roid-enhanced bulkage is accompanied by:
1. Mood swings;
2. Sleep pattern disorders;
3. Acne;
4. Bitch tits;
5. Baldness; and, finally
6. The condition known as ‘sultana nuts’.

Evidently the Taliban are hanging people on the ‘kill list’ using the mobile and airborne method.

This idea that all the Taliban are “country boys” is such misinformation.
That 5% who run the show & who have had the better part of 30 years fighting across multiple countries are fucking dangerous.
Who knows how many working choppers they now have?
But all they need is half a dozen pilots who have some experience to cause grief.
And a dozen mechanics who can make the things flyable until something breaks.

Driving to my office in town today due to the NBN being out (again), I hear a NSW ad on the radio.
It wasn’t Gladys speaking, but it was the same shtick as previous campaigns.
“Come on NSW, let’s get this done”.
Gladys, you can fuck right off.
Talk about a tin ear.

After hearing that NSW gov ad, I had to listen to some Rage Against the Machine to calm down.
