Masking now a symbol of COVID-19 pandemic’s mental health toll
A middle aged couple were rock fishing, about 10m apart, this arvo at a headland near my place.
No-one for 100’s of meters on the rocks and nothing but sea in front of them. She put on a mask.
No mental issues there of course!

In the nearly 30 years of domestic auto industry development, China hasn’t been able to overcome the core technical issues of automobiles in the era of internal combustion engines.

We will see over the coming days but hats off to UKR, they pulled a rabbit out of a hat.
Yesterday we lived in the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, today we live in the reign of King Charles III. The new monarchy ascending to the throne the instant that the late monarch passes so that the Kingdom is never without a monarch. It was a shock to hear the news of Her Majesties death, I had assumed for a long time that she would live to 100, I even thought she could live much longer. She always looked young for her age, even the photos of her swearing in the new British Prime Minister two days before her death she looked in her 80’s not her 90’s. If you are younger than 71 then you have known no other British monarch, as none has existed in your lifetime, she was Queen for 70 years.
We must also get used to saying King Charles when for 73 years we have known him as Prince Charles.
For those who read my blog it is no secret that as a Traditionalist I am also a Monarchist. So I want to address a controversies that exists.
The Queens responsibilities for the calamity that has befallen the White Realms.
There is no question that the last 70 years have been a calamity for Australia, Britain, Canada and New Zealand, the White Realms. In 1952 we were supreme, or so it seemed, in our our own lands. We had built these countries, they belonged to us, we had successfully defended them in war and we thought that these lands would remain the property of the British race forever. However in 2022 it is clear that all that was abandoned and instead we live in multi-racial countries, something that we never sort, that we never asked for, fought to obtain or voted for, instead it was forced upon us by Liberalism and the supporters of Liberalism.
However there are some on the Right who place all or part of the blame upon the Queen. They argue that this all happened while she was the monarch and that means that she was in total or in part responsible for these calamities. But is that true?
First off the Queen did not tell us her political opinions, we don’t even know if she had them, some people don’t. The evidence is unclear, at times she appeared quite conservative at others as a stock standard Liberal, certainly many of her speeches in recent decades were filled with multicultural platitudes. But were they her opinions or the opinions of her speechwriters?
You might argue that she shouldn’t have said something if she didn’t believe it, but neither you or I know what went on behind the scenes. Maybe she fought valiantly and sometimes won and sometimes lost, maybe she never complained, maybe over 70 years all these things were true. But what I find interesting is that for so many on the Right there is always someone to blame but themselves.
Lets say for a moment that the Queen opposed what happened 100%, then she failed. But don’t you oppose what happened 100%?
Or is it 95%, or 76% or 5%?
But you oppose it right, you would change it if you had the power wouldn’t you?
The mistake is to think the the Queen had power, because she did not. The sad and even pathetic truth is that modern monarchs in the West do not have power. In theory she could declare war, but she never did because in reality that power was no longer hers. In theory she could deny assenting to any Act of Parliament, the last time that happened was in 1819, that power is long gone. Everything the government does is done in her name, whether she personally likes it or not.
How is that different to you or I?
Things are done in our name whether we like them or not. We are told that in a Democracy we control the government, how in control do you feel?
You might argue that she should have abdicated, or refused to play the game, she should have done more. But the exact same argument can and has been made about you. Why do you keep paying taxes to a government that hates you?
Why do you keep working when you could be a full time revolutionary trying to overthrow the government?
Why haven’t you done more?
Why haven’t you been more successful at stopping things?
Why have you and your parents and your Grandparents done so little to stop the rot?
But in truth how much power do you have?
Not much.
The Queen had influence and she had prestige, but both were won by her continuing to play the game and in the end she had to deal with Liberals. So her arguments would, maybe did, fall upon deaf ears. Ears that listen but do not hear.
A Queen should have power and most people automatically thought that she did, but she did not. Influence and prestige yes, but not power. She was instead bound by laws and customs that restricted what she was allowed to say and do, just as we are.
I would like to make one final point, she was a Queen and traditionally Queens lose power. I once had someone who was interested in alternative history complain to me that so many alternative histories were about which rich White guy became President of the United States. He argued that no matter who was elected it wouldn’t have made much of a difference. He then said that if Queen Victoria had instead been King Victor then history would be very different.
I think he was right, a long reigning King would have lost much less power than a Queen did. I am uncertain if that was true of Queen Elizabeth II’s reign, as maybe there was no real power to preserve by the time she became Queen.
The calamities that have befallen us did not only occur during the Queens reign, but during our lifetime. It’s time we asked ourselves why have we allowed these things to happen and to start doing more than complain about them. To stop asking why hasn’t someone ELSE done something because we are that someone.
New smoke alarm legislation in Queensland means all homes must install interconnected photoelectric smoke alarms in every bedroom, in hallways, and on every level by 2027.
The surgeon was a friendly Chinese young dude. I’m now worried he may have implanted some listening and tracking device in my gut. Should I be worried?
They should be worried listening to you; they’ll die of boredom. So, you had keyhole surgery, ergo no scar. Wimp.

Napoleon did the ‘shopkeepers’ bit, but so did the Austrian corporal. Richard Fulmer:
“Bourgeois” was Karl Marx’s all-purpose, sneering epithet for anyone with whom he disagreed. Like Napoleon before him, Adolph Hitler scorned England as a “nation of shopkeepers.” Antebellum southerners distained work, believing it fit only for slaves.
The left’s contempt for the bourgeoisie has a long and dishonorable history. The free market, which they so hate, shifted western morality toward honoring hard work, thrift, and productivity and away from honoring conquest and pillage. The left despises the west because it did not always adhere to the morality that the west only recently created.
Hitler’s quote occurred at the start of the Battle of Britain, when Operation Sea Lion (the invasion of England) was already well into its advanced planning stages.
There are no truly grand movements anymore – western peoples in particular have allowed themselves to be sucked into a morass of mediocrity.
There’s a lot to be said for embarking on a mighty march/adventure. Whether that be into the endless plains of an unknown landmass or a sea faring journey half way across the world to a new continent.
Instead of partaking in some mighty adventures, I go to be an Economist*. Gee, thanks, God.
*Hopefully one of the ones who are only wrong about everything 93.1% of the time, at least. 😕
However in 2022 it is clear that all that was abandoned and instead we live in multi-racial countries, something that we never sort, that we never asked for, fought to obtain or voted for, instead it was forced upon us by Liberalism and the supporters of Liberalism.
We/you voted for it again and again and again. Even if you don’t like it, generations voted for it.
Either we live in democracies or we don’t.
Also, if you boast about being the nicest colonisers, you will end up with some of the colonees at home.
Plus Australia, NZ, Africa and Canada were never monoracial. Nor were we the first white people to poke around, except maybe for New Zealand.

At the start of WWII, Hitler was sympathetic to the English man.
How fucking sympathetic was Hitler’s decision to bomb the shit out of London?
The Blitz on London from September 1940 to May 1941 and the V1 flying bomb and V2 rocket attacks in 1944 caused a massive amount of damage. It is estimated that more than 12,000 metric tons of bombs were dropped on London and nearly 30,000 civilians were killed by enemy action. The worst hit places tended to be the poorer districts, like the East End, but all Londoners were affected by German air raids to a varying degree. (Imperial War Museum)
Pardon my French but stupid rubbish needs to be called out.
You’re not reconciling this with what Hitler thought of the English pre war and towards the end.
Towards the end of the war, Hitler had changed his mind from a necessary conquest of an ethnically similar European man to wanting to enslave English men as forced labour on the continent. He was going to treat them worse than any other conquered people other than the Jews.
Being in a POW camp was better than being at Auschwitz or Trebalinka.

Eating out on cheap: this is not about money; it’s about respect
By JOHN LETHLEAN
FOOD WRITER
THE WEEKEND AUSTRALIAN MAGAZINE
I’ve heard about a fantastic new money-saving hack that goes something like this. Walk into a restaurant and order a bowl of tagliatelle with nothing but butter. Maybe a little Parmigiano. Just as the pasta arrives, whip out a fresh black truffle and a truffle shaver, and proceed to slather the mound of steaming pasta with wafers of exotic aromatic fungus, eliciting groans of envy from nearby tables.
Never mind the look of horror from the bloke who owns the place – you’ve saved yourself the price of truffle from the restaurant and become the centre of attention, possibly even the star of your own short video, and surely that’s everyone’s ambition now, isn’t it?
There are variations on the above, of course. Buying a half roast duck from the Chinese place with the birds in the window and taking it into your favourite Vietnamese, scattering bits of quacker around the plate of fried rice you ordered. Saved money there. Or bringing along a baggie with tomato, mozzarella, basil and olive oil to pimp your Italian main course. We could go on; there are thousands of variations on the BYO food pimp. The restaurant won’t mind, will it?
The idea’s not original. It comes, according to a recent report, from an influencer who takes her own avocado to cafes to pimp her scrambled eggs. “Milly Rose Bannister told others to bring their own avocado when eating out and ‘thank her later’,” the report says. In a TikTok clip, “the Sydneysider is shown producing an avocado from a shopping bag, slicing it up and spreading it between scrambled eggs and toast bought at the cafe.” Milly was adamant that buying at least something from the menu was support enough for the businesses she frequented. “I think it’s better to spend $14 at a cafe than to spend $0,” she was reported as saying, “and I hate sitting at home and cooking my own eggs.”
Quite right, Milly. Cooking eggs is a complete drag and those gouging bastards at your favourite cafe probably don’t include furniture, rent, crockery and glassware when they give you a bill, not to mention service, wi-fi, papers and mags, music, napkins and fresh water. Bugger all, really; the transaction is entirely about food costs, end of story.
I’m being facetious, obviously. Who in this world has so little dignity, or is so lacking in self-awareness, that they would take food to a restaurant or cafe to augment a meal? It’s not about money; it’s about respect. For yourself and the person who has put his or her nuts on the line to run a small business.
One of the positives to come out of Covid, I thought, was a more widespread appreciation of what the hospitality industry goes through to bring a service to market. And then along comes Milly telling her TikTok followers to, basically, cheat.
So here’s a better idea. Pick some herbs from your garden and give them to your favourite cafe operator. You may just get some free avocado.
New Apple Watch and iPhone 14 detect car crashes and calls for help
In a move that could save lives, Apple has introduced a new Crash Detection feature on its devices, which will detect car accidents and autonomously call emergency services.
I heard…Apple also announced plans for a software upgrade to the iPhone in six months which will add more emergency response capabilities. The 2nd generation iPhone14 will detect when the government is debasing your currency to inflate away its own credit card debt and will autonomously text the Prime Minister to fire the head of the RBA.

A minutes silence ahead of an AFLW game seems appropriate.
Perhaps each AFLW game will feature at least one goalless quarter as a tribute to the late monarch.
The whole of civilization is in mourning. The passing of Queen Elizabeth II, the enlightened monarch who reigned over the United Kingdom for 70 years, is a loss felt by billions around the world.
This week, and in the weeks ahead, we especially grieve for the royal family — we can only imagine their sorrow.
And we express our solidarity with all the people of the United Kingdom and every realm of the Commonwealth she so loved.
Few in history have more fully exemplified the traits of dignity, steadfastness, resolve, duty, and patriotic devotion.
She counseled 15 Prime Ministers and 13 Presidents, and was the longest-serving monarch in the history of England and the United Kingdom.
Spending time with Her Majesty was one of the most extraordinary honors of my life.
I grew up in a household where Queen Elizabeth — her grace, her charm, her nobility — were deeply admired, especially by my mother, who came from Scotland.
The times we spent with the Queen at Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle are memories Melania and I will cherish for the rest of our lives.
Her Majesty had a sharp mind, missed nothing, and always knew exactly what to say.
At our unforgettable State Dinner three years ago, we got along wonderfully, talking the whole evening.
That same week, the 75th anniversary of D-Day, we sat side-by-side to honor the sacrifice of the British and American warriors who fought and bled together in the Second World War.
I will forever be grateful for the privilege of getting to know this unparalleled leader.
As monarch, Her Majesty the Queen was the personal embodiment of nearly a century of British history.
Every Prime Minister from Winston Churchill onward served under her.
When I asked her who was her favorite, she told me she liked them all.
She saw her country through the Blitz of London, the Cold War, the Falklands conflict, the coal miners’ strikes, Brexit, COVID, and so much more.
No matter what challenges came, she was always there for her people—resolute and unflappable, stabilizing and reassuring by her very presence.
In the face of all adversity, she embodied the uniquely British attribute of a firm and quiet resolve.
The qualities that served Queen Elizabeth so well as monarch also endeared her to the hearts of countless people all over the world.
From Africa to Asia to the Americas, she was the United Kingdom’s greatest emissary.
Through her travels to well over 100 countries, she touched countless lives, spreading confidence, goodwill, and admiration for British values everywhere she went.
Nowhere was this truer than in the United States.
The treasured friendship and precious bond between America and the United Kingdom, which we call the Special Relationship, meant that Her Majesty the Queen was truly special to us as well.
She was respected and beloved by the American People like few other figures in modern times.
Above all, the Queen was great because Britain is great.
In her person, the world witnessed the fullest expression of the British spirit.
The virtues she epitomized were the virtues of the British people.
Trump is seen fist-bumping Queen Elizabeth during a trip to London in June 2019. He says it ‘will take time to fully absorb the extent of this loss’
By her example, we saw what it means to be British—a people who are strong and unwavering, wise and just, noble and majestic; a people who are serious, but good-humored; proud, but righteous; and indeed a people who are a blessing to the entire world.
That was Queen Elizabeth, and that is the United Kingdom. She was Great Britain at its very best.
It will take time for us to fully absorb the extent of this loss.
She was indispensable—a beloved Sovereign of her Kingdom, an icon to the world, a legend in her time.
As we grieve, we are comforted that King Charles III will be a great and outstanding successor to his cherished mother.
Melania and I were blessed to get to know him well when we visited England.
He dearly loves the U.K. and its people. I know he will prove to be an inspiration to the British People, and that under Charles’s reign, they will continue to persevere through all challenges, and push relentlessly onward toward their great destiny in which Queen Elizabeth II so deeply believed.
God bless the Queen. God bless her family. God bless the United Kingdom.

DIED SUDDENLY”…
According to the latest official data, ‘excess deaths’ are skyrocketing worldwide.
Whether its New Zealand, Australia, Germany, Netherlands, Scotland or United Kingdom, “excess deaths” in 2022 are between 10 to 20 percent and heading northwards.
Australia boasts one of the worst “excess deaths” rate in the world at 16.6 percent above the national average.
Just for context, actuaries allow 2 to 3 percent variation for deaths in any given year, so an increase of 16.6 percent is staggering.
The UK’s Office of National Statistics recently showed there were 12,333 deaths for the week ending 26 August 2022 – an increase of 15.4 percent.
That’s 1,646 “excess deaths” in one week.
Alberta, Canada, reports the leading cause of death for 2022 in Alberta, is not cancer or dementia, but “unknown causes”.
In 2019, there were 500 deaths “from unknown causes” in Alberta. Two years later, its 3,500.
Eurostat figures for the EU show similar trends.
European countries with the worst ‘excess death’ rates include Germany (14 percent), Estonia (15 percent), Spain (16.7 percent) and Portugal (23.9 percent).
Professor Carl Heneghan, Director of the Centre for Evidence Based Medicine at Oxford University compared the excess death rate from April to August 2022, with the seven-year average revealing a substantial increase in ‘excess deaths’ everywhere.
His figures also show an astounding 28 percent increase in the number of people dying “at home” in England and Wales.
The Professor is calling for a thorough investigation to be carried out on all these deaths:
“The signals in the data suggest something is not right” he said.
“Sustained rises in deaths should trigger an investigation”. This should involve “accessing the raw data on death certificates, medical notes and analysing autopsy reports”.
“I feel there is a lack of clear thinking at the moment but, when it comes to people’s health and well-being, you can’t wait – it’s unacceptable”.
Mainstream educator, Dr John Campbell, has strongly criticised the publicly available deaths-data, describing it as “simply not acceptable”.
“We really have to get to the bottom of this” he said.
“It’s an international scandal. There are very high death rates around the world and people need to know what’s going on. At the moment we’re not getting the full information we need.”
It doesn’t matter where you look or which expert you listen to, one thing is certain – a lot more people than normal are dying.
It’s an undeniable fact.
And here’s the thing. It’s across every age group.
People in the prime of their lives are dying at unprecedented rates.
Most shocking of all, however, is that nobody in government or the mainstream media seems the least bit interested in finding out why.
Of course…it’s as KD says….it’s all the missed diagnosis of heart disease in 20 year olds due to no one going to the hospital over covid.

They’d rather die in denial than exact revenge before they do.
The cowardice and submissive nature of these people made them roll their sleeves up.
So now those very same character traits are going to see many of them die quietly and submissively, as required.

You were conned.
You won’t admit that.
Was it Mark Twain who said it’s easier to con someone than to tell them they have been conned.
The oldest trick in the book by tyrants is to use fear.
And it worked on the jabbed so much they drove down and waited in enormous lines of traffic for tests and to get their kill shot.
Un..fucking…believable.
Bill Gates wants you dead and you let him inject you.
Normally you would think clearly but albeit at different levels of hysteria ranging from Notafan’s insanity to begrudging servitude….but it is still servitude.
“You had no choice” is saying I’ll save my job if I kill myself.
The reason I detest many of you here so much is that you knew better.
Who would not expect Monty, who’s religion is government to line up and gullibly believe all told to him?
To lefties, the word of a corrupted bureaucrat is gospel.
But you.
You knew better and you were given all the evidence right from the very start.
I tried to calm the hysterical Notafan down. God the damage she has done to others in her hysterics is anyone’s guess.
Do we all remember “We don’t want to be Italy” we don’t want to be London or New York!!!!!!!!
Remember,,,and remember she wasn’t the only one.
I am hated by many here, who want to act like those two years never happened.
You were presented with good facts as to why you should not take the jab.
You were presented with sound ethical and moral reasons not to take the jab.

You weren’t “forced into it”

You don’t understand the principle of the right to free speech, you gross idiot. Firstly, it’s censure, not sensor, you loudmouthed idiot. Sensors are installed in homes to guard against fire and thieves.

You’re ruining Dover’s blog with your dull, boring repetitious crap and he should stop it because it’s turning people off. Go post elsewhere. Reams and fucking reams of the useless crap.

As the Ukraine war enters its seventh month, here is a look at the top ten fallouts that most would turn a blind eye to.
TIPPINSIGHTS EDITORIAL BOARD
Friendly corporate media will never ask the Biden administration tough questions, but as the war on Ukraine is about to grind into the eighth month, the multiple costs of the American-led conflict are, in fact, taking the world back decades.
American-led? Before Russia critics pounce on us, it is worth noting that the United States has not been this involved in a two-party conflict since Vietnam. The Biden mandarins have placed nearly $60 billion in direct support at stake, trotting the globe to pressure other countries to condemn Russia and enact an unprecedented, but thus-far ineffective, sanctions regime.
While it is true that it is Putin’s blatant aggression that has caused this morass, we have maintained that the Biden administration did not exhaust all of its diplomatic options to prevent war. Even after the first shots were fired, the administration doubled down to punish Russia without adequately considering the collateral consequences of its decisions.
Here is our Top-10 list of the war’s hidden costs, many that are irreversible and were unthinkable just a year ago.

JC demand the footage of the op. I think they dropped you when taking you off the table. The last op I had 2 hrs sleep in 2 1/2 days. High doses of pain killers do that to me.
Unfortunately, they’re not cracking down on actual crime that affects the American people; they’re cracking down on Biden’s political enemies
Still, despite all the blatantly partisan government police attacks in which the FBI was engaging, the raid on Mar-a-Lago marked an escalation in the war against Trump and his supporters. Never in American history has a presidential administration used the DOJ and FBI as his private police force to handicap a potential political opponent. There was a distinct whiff of the KGB about this one.
It turns out, though, that the escalation was just a warm-up. It turns out that the FBI managed to obtain 50 subpoenas and orchestrate as many as 35 raids across America last night, all against people who openly support Trump and his goal of Making America Great Again.
I initially was going to hold off on reporting this because Steve Bannon was the only person talking about these raids, and I wanted more corroboration.
That corroboration came when Tucker Carlson spoke with Harmeet Dhillon. She not only corroborated the report, but she also established (to my satisfaction, as a lawyer) that the subpoenas were overly broad and, worse, explicitly sought constitutionally protected information:
King George III’s agents used to use general warrants (i.e., broad, even open-ended search warrants), and that was one of the liberty-destroying wrongs against which the colonists rebelled. The Fourth Amendment specifically prohibits that kind of search warrant abuse. That’s not stopping the DOJ and FBI, though, both of which are conducting the kind of political purge we associate with totalitarian dictatorships and tin-pot tyrannies.

A new gene therapy based on antibody cells is about to be tested on humans
It also took time to convince the FDA to allow the trial. That’s because it’s known that if added DNA ends up near cancer-promoting genes, it can sometimes turn them on.
Perhaps they should have just told them it had something to do with Covid. All concerns from the FDA would have evaporated.
“The FDA is concerned if you are doing this in a B cell, could you develop a leukemia situation? That is something that they are going to watch pretty closely,” says Paul Orchard, the doctor at the University of Minnesota who will be recruiting patients and carrying out the study.
Why “recruit”?
Just tell them if they don’t participate they’ll be locked up, ostracised from society, and stopped from providing for their families.
In fact, why have a study at all? Just ‘Provisionally’ approve it and stick it in everyone. Sufferers, healthy people…the fucking lot! What could go wrong?

Ouch OldOzzie, that is some work you had done. Special K does that in most people. I had hyper realism.
On Thursday, however, the DOJ went one step further and did something that, to my mind, strongly indicates that its raid on Mar-a-Lago was intended to obtain and protect information that would be embarrassing to Obama, Biden, and the Deep State. Instead of complying with the court’s order to submit the names of special masters, it fought back against a special master entirely by filing a motion stating that, unless the trial court reversed its order, it required that the court enter a stay pending an appeal to the 11th Circuit.
The claimed reason is that the order, to the extent it affects allegedly “classified” material compromises national security:
There are two problems with this request. First, it cannot be said often enough that the materials in Trump’s possession by definition are not classified. The President of the United States of America has plenary power regarding document classification, something that overrides completely any bureaucrat’s little rubber stamps and labels. As the Supreme Court said in Navy v. Egan, 484 U.S. 518 (1988),
Thus, the DOJ’s motion signals that, for the Biden administration, the issue isn’t that Trump had allegedly classified documents in his office. Were that the case, as noted, it would be easy enough for a special master with security clearance to review them. The Biden administration’s concern, instead, is that no one outside of the administration looks at those documents. The best explanation for this particular paranoia is that the documents reflect badly on the Biden administration and, by extension, on the Obama administration, and the Deep State itself.
I sure hope that Trump’s lawyers understand what just happened here. The DOJ’s actions can be understood to mean that the real reason behind the raid on Mar-a-Lago was to be a clean-up operation to sweep up all documents that could harm Biden, Obama, or anyone in those men’s administrations.
I’ve gone private a few times JC 2 of them ok, 1 a scam artist. One of the guys is the same guy going public anyway. I got 2 knee replacements done by a Professor in a private hospital and it was on medicare. I’ve had so much work done in the last 10 yrs half the staff know me.

The Fourth Amendment specifically prohibits that kind of search warrant abuse.
It also forbids random breath testing: everyone passing down a selected stretch of road gets tested or no one gets tested.
Were this in effect down here in Danistan, they could sell off the booze buses and redirect police to what are regarded as essential VicPol duties: shooting people with rubber bullets, harassing old ladies, pepper-gassing photographers, framing cardinals, turning defence lawyers into informers, keeping hands off Labor rorters, doctoring crime stats, manufacturing reasons why no charges should be brought against officers filmed violently abusing commuters and ending all internal communiques with ‘Dan’s will be done’.

The Queen Is Dead, Long Live The King
http://uponhopeblog.blogspot.com/2022/09/the-queen-is-dead-long-live-king.html
Yesterday we lived in the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, today we live in the reign of King Charles III. The new monarchy ascending to the throne the instant that the late monarch passes so that the Kingdom is never without a monarch. It was a shock to hear the news of Her Majesties death, I had assumed for a long time that she would live to 100, I even thought she could live much longer. She always looked young for her age, even the photos of her swearing in the new British Prime Minister two days before her death she looked in her 80’s not her 90’s. If you are younger than 71 then you have known no other British monarch, as none has existed in your lifetime, she was Queen for 70 years.
We must also get used to saying King Charles when for 73 years we have known him as Prince Charles.
For those who read my blog it is no secret that as a Traditionalist I am also a Monarchist. So I want to address a controversies that exists.
The Queens responsibilities for the calamity that has befallen the White Realms.
There is no question that the last 70 years have been a calamity for Australia, Britain, Canada and New Zealand, the White Realms. In 1952 we were supreme, or so it seemed, in our our own lands. We had built these countries, they belonged to us, we had successfully defended them in war and we thought that these lands would remain the property of the British race forever. However in 2022 it is clear that all that was abandoned and instead we live in multi-racial countries, something that we never sort, that we never asked for, fought to obtain or voted for, instead it was forced upon us by Liberalism and the supporters of Liberalism.
However there are some on the Right who place all or part of the blame upon the Queen. They argue that this all happened while she was the monarch and that means that she was in total or in part responsible for these calamities. But is that true?
First off the Queen did not tell us her political opinions, we don’t even know if she had them, some people don’t. The evidence is unclear, at times she appeared quite conservative at others as a stock standard Liberal, certainly many of her speeches in recent decades were filled with multicultural platitudes. But were they her opinions or the opinions of her speechwriters?
You might argue that she shouldn’t have said something if she didn’t believe it, but neither you or I know what went on behind the scenes. Maybe she fought valiantly and sometimes won and sometimes lost, maybe she never complained, maybe over 70 years all these things were true. But what I find interesting is that for so many on the Right there is always someone to blame but themselves.
Lets say for a moment that the Queen opposed what happened 100%, then she failed. But don’t you oppose what happened 100%?
Or is it 95%, or 76% or 5%?
But you oppose it right, you would change it if you had the power wouldn’t you?
The mistake is to think the the Queen had power, because she did not. The sad and even pathetic truth is that modern monarchs in the West do not have power. In theory she could declare war, but she never did because in reality that power was no longer hers. In theory she could deny assenting to any Act of Parliament, the last time that happened was in 1819, that power is long gone. Everything the government does is done in her name, whether she personally likes it or not.
How is that different to you or I?
Things are done in our name whether we like them or not. We are told that in a Democracy we control the government, how in control do you feel?
You might argue that she should have abdicated, or refused to play the game, she should have done more. But the exact same argument can and has been made about you. Why do you keep paying taxes to a government that hates you?
Why do you keep working when you could be a full time revolutionary trying to overthrow the government?
Why haven’t you done more?
Why haven’t you been more successful at stopping things?
Why have you and your parents and your Grandparents done so little to stop the rot?
But in truth how much power do you have?
Not much.
The Queen had influence and she had prestige, but both were won by her continuing to play the game and in the end she had to deal with Liberals. So her arguments would, maybe did, fall upon deaf ears. Ears that listen but do not hear.
A Queen should have power and most people automatically thought that she did, but she did not. Influence and prestige yes, but not power. She was instead bound by laws and customs that restricted what she was allowed to say and do, just as we are.
I would like to make one final point, she was a Queen and traditionally Queens lose power. I once had someone who was interested in alternative history complain to me that so many alternative histories were about which rich White guy became President of the United States. He argued that no matter who was elected it wouldn’t have made much of a difference. He then said that if Queen Victoria had instead been King Victor then history would be very different.
I think he was right, a long reigning King would have lost much less power than a Queen did. I am uncertain if that was true of Queen Elizabeth II’s reign, as maybe there was no real power to preserve by the time she became Queen.
The calamities that have befallen us did not only occur during the Queens reign, but during our lifetime. It’s time we asked ourselves why have we allowed these things to happen and to start doing more than complain about them. To stop asking why hasn’t someone ELSE done something because we are that someone.
It’s up to us and it always has been.
I’m on the chopping block … 😕

You’re not reconciling this with what Hitler thought of the English pre war and towards the end.
Towards the end of the war, Hitler had changed his mind from a necessary conquest of an ethnically similar European man to wanting to enslave English men as forced labour on the continent. He was going to treat them worse than any other conquered people other than the Jews.
Being in a POW camp was better than being at Auschwitz or Trebalinka.

The Old Town was not as crowded as I remembered it, plenty of room to move about. Perhaps there are no cruise ships in today – they turn places like Dubrovnik into a zoo. So we sat on the pier and ate cheviche and sipped rosé and watched the world go by. And I bought a little impressionistic oil which the Beloved didn’t like much – he’s more into photographic style.
Even in September the heat is captured by the limestone and radiated back a hundredfold. The water is bluer than I recall – last time it had that typical greenish lustre that speaks of the Adriatic.
Eating out on cheap: this is not about money; it’s about respect
By JOHN LETHLEAN
FOOD WRITER
THE WEEKEND AUSTRALIAN MAGAZINE
I’ve heard about a fantastic new money-saving hack that goes something like this. Walk into a restaurant and order a bowl of tagliatelle with nothing but butter. Maybe a little Parmigiano. Just as the pasta arrives, whip out a fresh black truffle and a truffle shaver, and proceed to slather the mound of steaming pasta with wafers of exotic aromatic fungus, eliciting groans of envy from nearby tables.
Never mind the look of horror from the bloke who owns the place – you’ve saved yourself the price of truffle from the restaurant and become the centre of attention, possibly even the star of your own short video, and surely that’s everyone’s ambition now, isn’t it?
There are variations on the above, of course. Buying a half roast duck from the Chinese place with the birds in the window and taking it into your favourite Vietnamese, scattering bits of quacker around the plate of fried rice you ordered. Saved money there. Or bringing along a baggie with tomato, mozzarella, basil and olive oil to pimp your Italian main course. We could go on; there are thousands of variations on the BYO food pimp. The restaurant won’t mind, will it?
The idea’s not original. It comes, according to a recent report, from an influencer who takes her own avocado to cafes to pimp her scrambled eggs. “Milly Rose Bannister told others to bring their own avocado when eating out and ‘thank her later’,” the report says. In a TikTok clip, “the Sydneysider is shown producing an avocado from a shopping bag, slicing it up and spreading it between scrambled eggs and toast bought at the cafe.” Milly was adamant that buying at least something from the menu was support enough for the businesses she frequented. “I think it’s better to spend $14 at a cafe than to spend $0,” she was reported as saying, “and I hate sitting at home and cooking my own eggs.”
Quite right, Milly. Cooking eggs is a complete drag and those gouging bastards at your favourite cafe probably don’t include furniture, rent, crockery and glassware when they give you a bill, not to mention service, wi-fi, papers and mags, music, napkins and fresh water. Bugger all, really; the transaction is entirely about food costs, end of story.
I’m being facetious, obviously. Who in this world has so little dignity, or is so lacking in self-awareness, that they would take food to a restaurant or cafe to augment a meal? It’s not about money; it’s about respect. For yourself and the person who has put his or her nuts on the line to run a small business.
One of the positives to come out of Covid, I thought, was a more widespread appreciation of what the hospitality industry goes through to bring a service to market. And then along comes Milly telling her TikTok followers to, basically, cheat.
So here’s a better idea. Pick some herbs from your garden and give them to your favourite cafe operator. You may just get some free avocado.

Tech news for some satire:
I heard…Apple also announced plans for a software upgrade to the iPhone in six months which will add more emergency response capabilities. The 2nd generation iPhone14 will detect when the government is debasing your currency to inflate away its own credit card debt and will autonomously text the Prime Minister to fire the head of the RBA.
Apple will also add a civil rights emergency detection feature it calls StruthTime, where any attempt to scan a QR code of any kind will cause Siri to tell the user to “give themselves an uppercut”.

You were presented with sound ethical and moral reasons not to take the jab.

Ten Hidden Costs Of The Ukraine War
As the Ukraine war enters its seventh month, here is a look at the top ten fallouts that most would turn a blind eye to.
TIPPINSIGHTS EDITORIAL BOARD
Friendly corporate media will never ask the Biden administration tough questions, but as the war on Ukraine is about to grind into the eighth month, the multiple costs of the American-led conflict are, in fact, taking the world back decades.
American-led? Before Russia critics pounce on us, it is worth noting that the United States has not been this involved in a two-party conflict since Vietnam. The Biden mandarins have placed nearly $60 billion in direct support at stake, trotting the globe to pressure other countries to condemn Russia and enact an unprecedented, but thus-far ineffective, sanctions regime.
While it is true that it is Putin’s blatant aggression that has caused this morass, we have maintained that the Biden administration did not exhaust all of its diplomatic options to prevent war. Even after the first shots were fired, the administration doubled down to punish Russia without adequately considering the collateral consequences of its decisions.
Here is our Top-10 list of the war’s hidden costs, many that are irreversible and were unthinkable just a year ago.

But I’m not in the mood today.
Bespoke, It isn’t JC’s blog, so when he calls for posters to be banned on a blog that is not his, he is being anti free speech.
I typed that slowly………….
I don’t give a shit about upticks, you unfathomable buffoon. Ironically you do because you’re whining about it.
Of course you aren’t, because if you were you wouldn’t be incessantly trolling. Lying doofus.
Don’t flatter yourself.

Great to see Russia admitting openly that they are getting their arses whipped.
Sorry Bear, Explain. Did I screw up with my comments? I haven’t slept most of the night.

Biden’s Department of Justice and FBI are on a roll
September 10, 2022
Unfortunately, they’re not cracking down on actual crime that affects the American people; they’re cracking down on Biden’s political enemies
Still, despite all the blatantly partisan government police attacks in which the FBI was engaging, the raid on Mar-a-Lago marked an escalation in the war against Trump and his supporters. Never in American history has a presidential administration used the DOJ and FBI as his private police force to handicap a potential political opponent. There was a distinct whiff of the KGB about this one.
It turns out, though, that the escalation was just a warm-up. It turns out that the FBI managed to obtain 50 subpoenas and orchestrate as many as 35 raids across America last night, all against people who openly support Trump and his goal of Making America Great Again.
I initially was going to hold off on reporting this because Steve Bannon was the only person talking about these raids, and I wanted more corroboration.
That corroboration came when Tucker Carlson spoke with Harmeet Dhillon. She not only corroborated the report, but she also established (to my satisfaction, as a lawyer) that the subpoenas were overly broad and, worse, explicitly sought constitutionally protected information:
King George III’s agents used to use general warrants (i.e., broad, even open-ended search warrants), and that was one of the liberty-destroying wrongs against which the colonists rebelled. The Fourth Amendment specifically prohibits that kind of search warrant abuse. That’s not stopping the DOJ and FBI, though, both of which are conducting the kind of political purge we associate with totalitarian dictatorships and tin-pot tyrannies.
The works of St. Ruth so far, summarised. 7.15:

Good morning Lizzie.
Calm down wog boy, you’ll pop your stitches.
Just accept you are a failure, couldn’t argue your way out of a tissue box, (because the truth is not with you)…and are full of woggy wog boy emotion.
Just a bit of friendly advice from your resident cow poke Queenslander.
Redneck wisdom.
Maybe you could talk to the nurses there and ask them to bring in all the staff that refused the vaccine and you could tell them there is nothing to be worried about.
It could end the whole hospital crisis.
Do some good while you are in there.
Teach the unvaccinated medical specialists all you know…………
After all , you play the stock market and you know Bill Gates is a nice bloke….
Perhaps they should have just told them it had something to do with Covid. All concerns from the FDA would have evaporated.
Why “recruit”?
Just tell them if they don’t participate they’ll be locked up, ostracised from society, and stopped from providing for their families.
In fact, why have a study at all? Just ‘Provisionally’ approve it and stick it in everyone. Sufferers, healthy people…the fucking lot! What could go wrong?
Dude, the nurse explained to me that when they do keyhole, they “blow” air into the stomach cavity so as to see what the fuck they’re doing. This gas/air makes its way to the shoulder sometimes causing lots of pain but goes away after a few days. That’s what happened to me. Yea, pain killers cause insomnia with me too.
You’re a barrel stuffer who gives Queenslanders the backward reputation they don’t want.
Stay in your lane with your hyphenated surnames and pie floaters, Mr Adelaide.
You’re denialism is causing you to look and act like the stupid you have become in order to maintain the lie.
KD knows most of the 20 to 30 year olds dying now are not dying because they missed yearly check ups over covid.
Check ups he knew those age groups never have anyway.
Your excuses are pathetic and I do believe you are starting to see just how fucking moronic many of you are becoming in attempting to live the lie.
The mental sickness is at frightening levels….but it is starting to show cracks.

After, in Feb, 9 1/2 Op – 2 for 1 – Cutting Rotting Bone out of Head and replacing with Titanium Mesh, taking muscle below shoulder to facilitate blood flow across Head skin replacement from skin on thigh, plus SCC removed on Forehead, having said after Ketamine anesthetic on 13 1/2 Hour OP in 2018, had caused 5 1/2 hours of horrendous nightmares after Op in ICU, they used intravenous anesthetic and I came out of this Op feeling no pain and my wife seeing me in Post Op 1 hour after thought I was high on drugs – Nope just felt great – turns out I had Morphine available for my 1 night in ICU, but did not use and Ward Nurse and additional nurse covering disposal, dumped it into rubbish bin
Only a week in Severe Burns Ward then home to Home Wound Care – no painkillers
Don’t spoil it for JC,…..what a fucking party pooper.
JC, you’re not all there at the moment.
Back away from the keyboard and have a little nap.
Or do as I said, and reassure the medical proffessionals that wouldn’t take the jab that there is nothing to worry about.
It’ll get them their jobs back, n’all.
They lost them due to being principled and righteous.
Nah, just a hospital food joke. Shouldn’t be a problem if you went private. You did go private didn’t you?
Private hospitals are for the neat and tidy stuff. Less so if they are drilling holes in your skull trying to stop you from dying.
I did mention this yesterday so won’t requote it, but also note you’ve reduced your benchmark from 50-ish to 20-ish.
Like a cod monstering its way through a school of tadpoles, you have demonstrated over considerable time that you will believe absolutely anything you are told. In your case, it’s every pixel on the mountain of spinning bow-tie websites ‘authored’ by certified wingnuts who – like you – hold a firm belief that your individual genius has yet to be recognised by the wider world.
You are Bosi without the suit. Nothing more.
Nope.
So what!
Many have sometimes seriously but of times as a joke including you, hypocrite.
mUnty called. He wants his “wingnuts” back.
Go clean ya room, brat.
I did, but it makes no huge difference I think Bear.
You still wait. Waited 8 hours in ER. Waited for 3 days before getting on the slab. You really don’t get a choice of doc, because how do I know if the surgeon is any good. When I first got here they put me into a room of four although I have a room to myself now just before discharge.. What’s the difference?
Ouch OldOzzie, that is some work you had done. Special K does that in most people. I had hyper realism.
The DOJ’s opposition to the special master exposes a nefarious motive
On Thursday, however, the DOJ went one step further and did something that, to my mind, strongly indicates that its raid on Mar-a-Lago was intended to obtain and protect information that would be embarrassing to Obama, Biden, and the Deep State. Instead of complying with the court’s order to submit the names of special masters, it fought back against a special master entirely by filing a motion stating that, unless the trial court reversed its order, it required that the court enter a stay pending an appeal to the 11th Circuit.
The claimed reason is that the order, to the extent it affects allegedly “classified” material compromises national security:
There are two problems with this request. First, it cannot be said often enough that the materials in Trump’s possession by definition are not classified. The President of the United States of America has plenary power regarding document classification, something that overrides completely any bureaucrat’s little rubber stamps and labels. As the Supreme Court said in Navy v. Egan, 484 U.S. 518 (1988),
Thus, the DOJ’s motion signals that, for the Biden administration, the issue isn’t that Trump had allegedly classified documents in his office. Were that the case, as noted, it would be easy enough for a special master with security clearance to review them. The Biden administration’s concern, instead, is that no one outside of the administration looks at those documents. The best explanation for this particular paranoia is that the documents reflect badly on the Biden administration and, by extension, on the Obama administration, and the Deep State itself.
I sure hope that Trump’s lawyers understand what just happened here. The DOJ’s actions can be understood to mean that the real reason behind the raid on Mar-a-Lago was to be a clean-up operation to sweep up all documents that could harm Biden, Obama, or anyone in those men’s administrations.

I’ve gone private a few times JC 2 of them ok, 1 a scam artist. One of the guys is the same guy going public anyway. I got 2 knee replacements done by a Professor in a private hospital and it was on medicare. I’ve had so much work done in the last 10 yrs half the staff know me.
I’m trying to think what the death of the Queen represents. People are saying it’s the end of an era, but what freaking era is that.
I think it marks the end of the post war era.
The Fourth Amendment specifically prohibits that kind of search warrant abuse.
It also forbids random breath testing: everyone passing down a selected stretch of road gets tested or no one gets tested.
Were this in effect down here in Danistan, they could sell off the booze buses and redirect police to what are regarded as essential VicPol duties: shooting people with rubber bullets, harassing old ladies, pepper-gassing photographers, framing cardinals, turning defence lawyers into informers, keeping hands off Labor rorters, doctoring crime stats, manufacturing reasons why no charges should be brought against officers filmed violently abusing commuters and ending all internal communiques with ‘Dan’s will be done’.
You know, if there was an Opposition in Victoria, it could make hay with stuff like that.
Alas, in regard to the Opposition benches, you’ll find more lively and intelligent specimens in any fishmonger’s window.
Why are they all bashing the Queen here in Horse Trailer (Australia)? Colonialism, racism, and all that BS with the Indigenous people. FFS, there has been a Federal Guv’ment in Horse Trailer since 1901. Point the finger at the ‘Pollies’ and not at a nice Lady who tried to her BEST for EVERYONE.

How does this fit with your new improved standards, Dover?

I agree. Get rid of this TWAT. NOW!
LOl.
Ranga, my impression is that Australia spends a huge amount on the public system and it’s actually quite good but very bulky.
My mother had a terrible fall and she went into the Alfred even though she had cover. They really, really took care of her even though one of the docs was encouraging me to not feed her so they could pull the plug. I lodged a complaint for harassment.
My dad died in the same hospital I’m currently in and I still reckon the female ER doc was an incompetent asshat that caused his death.
