Every slightly paler spot on the carpet reminds me of my two hounds, now long gone. Rotten little widdlers. Thousands and thousands of dollars spent on eye surgery, diabetes, tick bites, boarding, grooming and better food than we ate.

I miss them to this day. But we won’t be getting another. Too heartbreaking when the inevitable happens.

Ok

Adding to “toppering” -Que?

– Standing behind Elle MacPherson in 1st Class Check in Sydney – Skinny as a Rake – No Bum – shapeless from behind

– Walking behind PonyTail Marlon Brando back streets Mayfair 71 – Tall Bastard

– Concorde LHR-JFK early 80s -no one exciting, but seat 1A and was able to go into cockpit and speak to pilots – and Helicopter from JFK to Hudson River NYC on finest day I have ever been in New York

when it was still a pup, the little shit ate an almost exact square of a leather couch that cost us 10 K to repair. Again, as a pup he ate the plastic irrigation pipes. I didn’t replace them because of what he did and also lost the garden. Add in another 10 K.

LOL. This is why I would never “purchase” another cat. Swinging from the curtains, sharpening the claws on the leather lounges and the regrettable “voiding” incidents.

Not to mention the vet bills and having it microchipped – they start on “companion animals” and then all of a sudden, you (yes, you) are:

.1 Existing in a Pod
.2 Owning nothing
.3 Feasting on insects
.4 And being “Happy”

Or else. 😕

Lovely story about your cat Jack there Rabz.

I felt that way about the little Burmese cat I have for 18 years throughout the kids childhoods. When small this cat, our little Maltese Dachshund cross puppy and our white rabbit used to chase each other happily around the pool. They would all cuddle up together to go to sleep when they got tired.

The white rabbit came to a sticky end by trusting too much the dog next door, but the other two lived on together into old age, he fourteen years old, the female cat eighteen at time of take off. She was boss, because she was clever. She could open door handles, walk on roof ridges, bring home rats and whip a little dog into line with her glares. Her basket was small and his was larger, but sometimes she’d decide to sleep in his, and he would dutifully squeeze himself into her basket for an uncomfortable night. They slept in their baskets in our bedroom. As we made initial going to bed preparations, they would both trail off to the bedroom and be waiting in bed for us when we came in.

When he had to be put down, she became older and less active. He used to play with her by sticking his hind quarters into her side and prance about saying clearly let’s play, I won’t eat you, see, my mouth is nowhere near you. She would then mercilessly biff him which he took a masochistic pleasure in receiving. Apparently it was fun for them both. They would also tag team up and down the hall.

Hairy and I both howled at the vet’s for each farewell visit with them. We’ve never replaced the dog, but after five years I longed for a kitty again. A dear little cuddly cat. Instead, we got Attapuss, a flawed animal. An autistic cat: nervous, jumpy, fussy eater but overweight, whines like an alarm clock in the early hours, hates all human males, non-cuddly except when on my legs on a blanket, hides like an ostrich from visitors and bites impulsively. He’s also gorgeous looking, tiger-marked, and obviously needy. He also loves us both and has a set of vocalisations that we can readily interpret, almost like a language. He talks a lot when we are alone with him. Emotional stuff, mainly, although I think a little bit of politics, though Hairy disagrees about that. 🙂

He is ours though and we love and miss him if he’s not around. It’s always good to get home to him.
It’s like having children. You take and love what you get and cannot compare them to others you love.

Pubs face winter ‘extinction’ with some facing energy bill spike of 500 per cent

Pub landlords are facing an “extinction” this winter as a majority of operators said they feared being forced to shut down in the coldest months.

Some 65 per cent of publicans said they were likely to close over winter, despite a lucrative Christmas period free of Covid restrictions, when surveyed by industry title The Morning Advertiser.

Nearly three quarters of pub and bar operators said they could not afford monster hikes to energy bills, with some even seeing bills rise more than 500 per cent.

Businesses’ energy bills are not constrained with a price cap in the same way bills for households are.

Earlier this summer, the British Institute of Innkeeping (BII) said the majority of its members were experiencing a minimum 300 per cent increase in energy costs, all while venues attempt to recover from the side effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Venues are also facing the costs of other headwinds spiralling while struggling to recruit front and back of house staff.

Pub industry chiefs have called on the government to issue support for the sector, with calls for measures ranging from a cap on energy costs, a VAT reduction and a freeze on business rates for the next year.

Action is needed now and not when the new Prime Minister steps into the job next month, Ed Bedington, editor of The Morning Advertiser, said.

“This situation is untenable and we’re likely to see the closure of huge swathes of pubs and bars across the UK unless something is done to tackle these spiralling costs,” he added.

The government seemed to be “either missing or ignoring” the potential “loss of hundreds of thousands of jobs” due to an absence of support for pubs, he said.

Heath Ball, managing director of The Frisco Group, which operates three pubs across the South East of England, dubbed the current crisis as “a doomsday scenario.”

“This energy bill crisis comes on the back of the most testing of times as businesses try and recover from the Covid crisis and I think it poses an even greater threat to the survival of pubs,” he added.

In response to the BII’s survey, a HM Treasury spokesperson said: “We’ve stood behind the hospitality sector throughout the pandemic with a £400bn package of economy-wide support that saved millions of jobs and offered a lifeline to hundreds of night-time businesses up and down the country.”

Old School, you’re always out and about with your opinions about comportment and behavior. I’d call you a blog behavioral expert. What do you think about Stuthid’s behavior over the past few years abusing people because they made a personal healthcare decision?

At the risk of being drawn into an apparent ambush, I’ll respect your question and say this:
I admire Struth’s attempts to remind Australians about the Constitution, and his leadership of the protest convoy. However his constant attacks on Cats are entirely misplaced and so I generally scroll past his word walls.
His invective should be 100% directed at the would-be dictators who imposed the last 2 years of hell on Australians. Morrison, all the Premiers, all the Health Officers, the police, and decision making bureaucrats are far more deserving of his abuse than ordinary Australians who made decisions based on government propaganda and MSM shills.

Your heart felt doggy story reminded me of when we had our beautiful 14 y.o. lab put down a few years ago. Vet said “do you want to stay during the process?” So I did and of course that 1 in a million events happened – a short while after the fatal injection nerve fibres twiched so violently we both though the dog was alive. Hells bells!

And many ordinary Australians made the decision based on the well informed advice of their trusted medical professionals, or simply reviewed the pros and cons and came up with a well reasoned decision to get vaccinated, on their own, and remain very comfortable with that decision.

But, yeah, no – we’re all a bunch of sellouts who can never live up to your exacting (and seemingly perpetually shifting) standards, such as they are.

For someone who was elderly, had a compromised immune system or had other very serious health co-morbidities, the vaxx would have seemed being worth the gamble at the time. (And maybe it was. The world wide stats suggest that the vaxxes aren’t totally useless. Unfortunately the world wide stats are designed not to give an accurate comparison between vaxx dangers and virus dangers.)

Others, not so much. However I can sympathise with those who couldn’t imagine the flabbergasting distortions between the virus danger stats and vaxx danger stats that the government was manipulating, or who succumbed in response to the threat of unemployment or other totalitarian thuggery, or whose decision was a combination of both.

Me? I have personal and family medical history that made me very wary of the vaxx, especially given the rushed approval and the obvious lies about “fully approved” when to this day it’s still only emergency approved. I don’t know what I would have done if it hadn’t been for my personal circumstances. But the decision to stay unvaxxed seems to have paid off. I got covid and fully recovered within a few days. Three cheers for natural immunity.

Classified records found in boxes were mixed in with “newspapers, magazines, printed news articles, photos, miscellaneous print-outs, notes,” and presidential correspondence, the affidavit says. This fanned suspicion that important documents were still floating around the house, where bad actors hanging around the Mar-a-Lago resort might pilfer them.

I wonder how many FBI files have such a mixture in them? If a file covers a particular subject, logic says to keep everything on that subject together, to minimise the chance that something important might later be missed (if it is in a separate file/store). Even newspapers etc can have important items in them.

Also: No one wants to go back to the office as if it was 2019 again and get lectured about racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia etc, etc etc.
You made the workplace so stupid and toxic no one wants to be there.

Clueless pontification #127 in an endless series.
FFS, when was the last time you worked in a CBD office?
People don’t want to go back to the office for a whole bunch of reasons.
The main reasons people like WFH include:-
.1 They avoid 2+ hours of commute a day;
.2 They avoid the cost and drudgery of that commute;
.3 They spend more time with their kids;
.4 As a result of .3, they save on childcare;
.5 Most get an allowance (some one-off, some recurring) to work from home;
.6 They save the costs of eating and coffee in the CBD. Say $10 net per day, $2 grand a year, after tax.
.7 For some, it means lack of closer supervision.
FMD, anyone with the semblance of a backbone doesn’t give a fat rat’s clacker about that shit in the workplace. Anyone who is afraid to go to the office for fear their tender ears might hear two frightbats chatting about SJW issues in the tea-room shouldn’t call themselves a conservative.
And should take a teaspoon of Portland cement and harden the fuck up.
Stop projecting that the stuff you obsess about makes it into the top ten issues around the work arrangements of others.

What St. Ruth fails to realise – and has done so, right through this entire shambles – is that the Edicts Within The Wordwalls of the last two-plus years are rock-solid in the totalitarian lane.

The false patriotism. The cajoling, then the demanding, then the impotent sporadic abuse. The offensive vernacular (‘purebloods’ and ‘enthusiastic Nazis’). The attempts to get into a position where he can pull the levers, followed by ‘didn’t want it anyway’, followed by ‘we wuz robbed’.

I don’t get this fear of needles.
I’ve had a few canulas go in over the journey and they are far bigger than a vax needle.
I was usually indifferent about it until I found out that the pathology provider I used had a “two strike” rule.
If they have two attempts and miss, they have to call the manager, assign the job to someone else who goes to the other arm and the manager goes through a hand-patting process to assuage the “trauma”.
FFS, get on with it.
From then on I used to work the arm hard to raise the vein and watch what they were doing to ensure they had it lined up, and if they appeared timid, encourage them to give it a good shove.

Being owned and WFH – an illustration of being owned, lock, stock and barrel, family, too: most, if not all, VIC govt depts required triple jabs when working from home. This meant that the home became the workplace, and, as such, the workplace could only mean that all persons at the premises we required to be jabbed. Now, Dan and his cronies did not quite think to enact that level of control, yet it would have dawned on them sooner or later to try it. But of course, the jab is only one aspect. Climate hysteria presents other opportunities where WFH is a contradiction of the term term home.

What St. Ruth fails to realise – and has done so, right through this entire shambles – is that the Edicts Within The Wordwalls of the last two-plus years are rock-solid in the totalitarian lane.

What you fail to understand is that, in terms of objective truth, he has been right all along. As seems clear now, both Covid itself and the injectables are nothing more than weapons to damage and subdue us. This item I posted yesterday makes it perfectly clear that –

1. They always knew the injectables were harmful, and
2. They were and are deliberately playing ducks and drakes with our lives, to the extent of producing versions meant to kill, which exceeds even the level of a medical experiment.

The only way we could have avoided the hell of the past 2 years is not to have cooperated in the first place. It’s hard to blame people for trusting authority and falling for media hysteria but, again, it’s the objective truth. The more people complied the more the screws were tightened. Because they could.

And, as to totalitarian behaviour, it wasn’t Struth who locked you in your home, forced you to take the drug or lose your job and created a sub-class of non-citizens with no rights, not even the right to leave the country, because they chose to make their own decision about their own bodily autonomy. Unfortunately, we are now living in an era when those meant to represent us are clearly and deliberately working against our interests.

in terms of objective truth, he has been right all along.

About the gas-piped Death Camps being built in every State and Territory, for the purpose of herding the unvaxxed in to be killed? Right about that was he?

About everyone who did not conform to his exact thoughts being shallow cock smokers who deserve to die? Is that right? Is he right?

About people’s blood turning to sludge? About nanowires growing in people’s brains? About Fat Cloive being the people’s saviour, which was after he dropped off the Sovereign Citizen and Bosi bandwagons, in that order?

Was he right about those things?

Au contraire, my dear. I am testing in my own way the limits of independent thinking on this blog which is a very adult thing to do. I poke fun at those things I think are ridiculous, as are these upticks. And I am insisting on discourse rather than a brush off, for discourse is an adult and civilised thing. I have not received any recognition from Calli that her comment was not quite what she claimed. I apologised if I had misread her, but the fact that it was quite possible to ‘misread’ her, indeed more or less impossible not to if you were placed in my position, has been elided away. The sensible thing for her to do is to admit to a level of poor commentary on her part just as I had admitted the possiblity of my error. Beneath her good humour is often a slightly worrying streak of control. Like me, she’s no angel. Nor is it sensible or adult for you JMH to treat me as some sort of stray and unworthy female. I am not that, which you should know by now.

Wrong order at Wendy’s leads to shooting, Frisco police say

Three people have been arrested in connection to the shooting.

According to officers, a customer in the drive-thru was unhappy with their order, then entered the store and began arguing with workers.

Police say the customer went to his vehicle and grabbed a gun, shooting at the front of the building before driving off.

No one was hit in the shooting.

Frisco Police arrested 19-year-old Christian Ellis of Glenn Heights on Friday and charged him with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

19-year-old Tyran McLeod and 33-year-old Shaquita Glaspie of Little Elm, who police believe were in the car at the time of the shooting, were also arrested and charged with failure to report a felony.

a slightly worrying streak of control

Hints of passive aggression.

Not a Federal case, as we can all do it at times. I’ve seen a lot of it in my lifetime. Nevertheless, I recall when I was under attack as being a ‘cruise Queen’ she was given a pretty soft ride with a fluffy example proffered to show she was receiving equal treatment to me, inviting her to take it in such good humour. I recall she returned a pretty fawning response to this soft ride too.

Meanwhile, I copped the lot. She said no word in my defense against this attack, and she never has. I have known since then I coud never count on her as a friend.

Well, that’s enough of old coals. Sometimes they still glow hot for I have been to hell and back here at times with the pile-ons. Including 56 dickless upticks at a difficult time in my life.

Monopoly is full of fond memories of family times for me. And so to for Jeremy Clarke, who writes the Spectator’s Low Life column still, although in some final weakening stages of dying of prostate cancer.

He is saying goodbye to it all from his home in the South of France, seeing with intensity as only poets and the dying do:

“Nature drew attention to itself as biting horseflies, lime-green lizards, hornets, cigales, ants great and small, and a crackling dryness underfoot. And in the evenings by rose and acquamarine celestial commemorative sunsets and a hot wind. And at night by sheet lightning, shooting stars and a fat bobbing moon.”

Yet he is keeping it light, encouraging them to see his debility, hia ‘ouches’ of pain as ‘farce rather than tragedy’, allowing for his grandchildren to remember him as a good-natured old fellow.

We played Monopoly with focus and seriousness. Even Catriona, normally of a kind and modest disposition – some might say a living sacrifice – becomes imbued with an asset-stripping, capitalist spirit. With eight tycoon eyes focusing like lasers on the board, cheating is impossible .. Catriona leafs through her massive wad of 100’s and considers her next building project … After a couple of hours of concentrated ill-judged wheeling and dealing, Grandad’s drugs begin to wear off and he heels over to starboard. I play on as cannon fodder for another half-hour. Finally, I make the announcement: “I’m sorry, chaps. I’ve had it. I’ve got to go and lie down agaisn” All eyes fall greedily on my meagre assets, to be divided up or auctioned. I’m addicted to stations. Once again I have all four. My weakness for stations is well known, is in fact a joke. Three were purchased at extortionate prices.
… We all laugh. I tell them I love them very much and thank them for their great good humour.
And off I go.

Beautiful.

The mental sickness here runs deep.
JC and I believe KD are the worst.
For different reasons.
JC is now without argument and is screaming at the moon.
Fancy suggesting that all I have said can be put down to being scared of a needle.
That’s right.
I’m a coward because I’m scared of needles.
I’m even scared of other people taking them….
The thing I’m truly scared about is having to explain the insanity here.
While I am confident most of you see JC’s mental demise quite clearly and chose to just stay out of it, these days who can be sure?
Especially here.
The fact a non Victorian country boy has been right all along is what this is all about.
To the point that if you’d listened to him and many others like him you’d not be staring death due to your own weakness….in the face.
So we get the JC style outbursts.
The trained to be compliant Victorian plod reject sitting at the bar of the Nightcliff hotel annoying the barmaids despises anyone who makes him think too hard as it hurts.
So tell me viewers……who really did bring up gas pipes?
Me or the “cock smoker” who claims I did?
He’s hoping if he lies enough you’ll forget he has invented much of what he claims I said.
There is much mental sickness here and as the jabbed start leaving this world in large numbers and it gets harder and harder to ignore……..I ask the relatively sane still here…..do you want to end up like these people?
Screaming at shadows.

However that says a lot about people knowing the truth of our situation underneath.
Australia is a death camp.
And we’re all in it.
Because the weak complied.
And they excused themselves by attempting to call that submission to tyranny a personal medical decision.

Do you want to admit this is happening?
Hell no.

Because then you’d have to admit you let the enemies of the free west inject you.
Those that want you and a few billion others….especially whites….dead.
You lacked the courage to not comply so the lie you’re living is to not allow this truth to exist.
It’s brilliant.
To admit the truth and see things clearly you’d have to admit to your own personal failings attributing to your death and your loved ones.
That lack of civic responsibility on your part destroyed the great nation of Australia.
That we didn’t stop the hysterical women and calm them down.

Human nature being what it is………
That’s why Indolent, matrix and a few others including myself are mocked and scoffed at.
The truth is……even while all points to the contrary were clearly laid out here for months and months….you failed and now you are most likely going to pay the ultimate price for it.
And so are your children.
Who out of you is going to admit that?

Electric car users warned as energy price cap makes charging more expensive than PETROL (27 Aug)

The RAC has warned motorists across the UK that EVs will be more expensive to run than petrol equivalents from October. It added that the cost of a full charge at home for an EV with a 64-kilowatt hour battery – such as a Kia e-Niro – will be £33.80 under the new cap which comes into force on October 1.

RAC spokesman Rod Dennis said: “The impact of the energy price cap increase will certainly be felt by drivers who charge their electric cars at home, with a full charge of a typical family-sized electric SUV costing 84 percent more from October 1 than it does under the current cap.

And fast chargers will be even more painful, since they charge a premium price. I put up an article yesterday about electricity in the UK due to rise by a hefty 80% on Oct 1st, after another rise of 54% in April. By contrast I filled up myself this week for $1.62 a litre, which is down from the peak of about $2.20/L some weeks ago. Electricity though is just going up and up. I wonder if renewable energy has anything to do with it? We should ask Albo.

Meanwhile, I copped the lot. She said no word in my defense against this attack, and she never has. I have known since then I coud never count on her as a friend.

Well, that’s enough of old coals.

Liar. I came to your defence. All lost and buried on SincCat.

When they got stuck into you (at around the same time as those idiots on the Arctic Explorer), I told them at least you were game to go and you returned at your own expense rather than whining for the government to do something. When the avalanche of comments descended, I said something. And I have come to your “defence” in other circumstances, but in recent years less so.

No I am not your “friend”. I hardly know you. Just because I don’t want to engage in endless recriminations of what I said and what you thought I said. This isn’t Third Form. As the day progressed, your comments became bitchier and bitchier, from my faith and even down to my personality type. So will reiterate:

– my comment about “look at me types” was not about you but dreary celebrities
– my comment about SU medals being “genuine” was not about you, in fact as I scroll back you mentioned “Firsts” not medals which Dot raised.

All the rest of that melange of vindictive spite must have built up over the years, years when I enjoyed your comments about travel and talked of mine.

My immediate reaction was to nip it in the bud late yesterday by refusing to engage. Cassie said that Christians should not “turn the other cheek” but fight back. Well, had you not impugned my faith and character I would have let it lie.

I would prefer the matter to be closed if you don’t mind. But that’s entirely up to you.

To all those who offered suggestions re our fox problem – thanks. We are sorting it.

We are still breathless at the audacity of the creature in curling up on our doormat! And it wasn’t that upset when we appeared ( through the glass of French door). Just looked up as if -“and what do you want?” As I mentioned yesterday, husband got the gun ( ready because of the raid on the chook pen” )but a decent shot was not possible.

Today work resumes on electric wire around the chook pen. Other remedies include building a higher roost inside the chook house – unreachable for the fox. We are also considering locking the door of the chook house overnight and even locking them in there when we are away – as it is a sizeable house – although I really don’t want to do that.

In spite of all these remedies we are still faced with the new problem of continuing free ranging of the chooks in the grounds when we are at the farm. Only a protective dog would foolproof that, & we don’t intend to acquire one because of the continual returns to the city. It has never been a problem before the appearance of this particularly arrogant fox.

Now I understand the meaning of trying to “outfox” someone!

Fascism is anything Democrats don’t like

As George Orwell put it, “the word fascism has now no meaning except in so far as it signifies ‘something not desirable.’” For Democrats, fascism simply means anything they don’t like, and anything that might possibly threaten their control over the governing establishment. Fascism is Donald Trump. Fascism is Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. Fascism is the overturning of Roe v. Wade. Fascism is religious people running their businesses according to their beliefs. And now fascism is the Republican Party and everyone who votes for it.

It’s impossible to know who Biden thinks he’s going to win over with this position

— besides maybe the talking heads at MSNBC who pull a Jeffrey Toobin every time the words “Trump” and “fascism” appear in the same sentence.

Thanks Tom.

On the travel commenting, I’m wary about attracting abuse not because I can’t take it, but because it’s so bad for the abuser. Naturally, abuse is always a personal choice but it doesn’t do to court it. Thanks for the encouragement.

We will be going Economy – they were the only FFP tickets available. Originally going via Haneda, but travellers leapfrogging over two days were not permitted as the transit hotel is closed and landside is only for groups and business travel. The Beloved will have to fold himself up carefully…my short legs can fit anywhere. Mercifully it’s a direct flight to the Netherlands and we arrive at Schiphol in the early afternoon.

The AFL’s AFLW women’s football season launch on Thursday and Friday – given star treatment by the Seven Network in the absence of men’s football, given a week’s break before the finals series begins next week – did not make it into Australia’s top 20 programs in the TV ratings on either night.

No-one wants to watch women’s football because it’s like watching the boys under 12s, with low scores and terrible skills.

But the Seven Network is committed to this ratings turkey so it doesn’t lose the men’s AFL rights, which are central to the network’s profit strategy each winter.

I’m not much for reading travelogues, especially when they have the appearance of a prepubescent girl running around the fence line of the concentration camp, thumbing her nose at the inmates.

However, I am convinced that feedback on common social and political issues will be read here with intense interest.

Can Woke Get Any Woker? Now ‘Neuroqueerness’ Is a Thing

Let’s be honest, shall we? Many if not most of us have morphed from shock, or worse, over each new pronouncement from the woke among us, to “meh, what’s new?” — and even laughter, often, because the shock factor is no longer shocking. Today’s case in point falls squarely into the latter category.

This fall, several major public universities are offering courses on LGBTQ sexuality, sex education, and activism that go far beyond the historical boundaries of LGBTQ individuals and their respective movements, as reported by Campus Reform. Instead, many of these courses focus on leftist politics and activist causes.

After all, what good is a radical adherent of anything, unless he, she, or “they” don’t proactively and effectively push it down the throats of the vast majority of America, demanding acceptance and respect?

Perfect example: The American University in Washington, D.C., offers a course that “teaches” students about “the lived experience of madness” and what it means to be “neuroqueer.”

People who identify as neuroqueer “often reject binaristic ideas of gender and sexual orientation. They can be nonconformists who think radically about queer and disabled identities.”

Let’s stop right here and ponder for a minute.

Is the American University equating “madness” and “queerness,” and suggesting that both are due to neurological or psychological disorders? If so, doesn’t that run contrary to everything they now preach, ad nauseam? Haven’t we been bombarded for years with Pride parades and such? That same-sex relationships and transgenderism are natural and healthy?

Yep, I’m confused, too.

Here’s a complete course description:
