JOE BIDEN IS A TOOL, and not a very sharp one.
It’s We-Don’t-Suffer-Fools-Gladly Friday at Wolf’s Pub. Oh, I hope the Meme Magic is strong today and we can soundly and roundly mock the Swamp Things in D.C. They richly deserve it.
It’s just got to be said over and over and over again:
Joe Biden Didn’t Win!
He’s a fraud
He’s a fake
He’s a phony fool
The Resident of the United States is such an embarrassment to the Cabal (whichever hydra head you want to refer to) that they are undoubtedly regretting him–especially if he’ll be running for reelection in 2024 (!!!) as he insisted yesterday. But, there’s an even deeper embarrassment—Heels Up Harris. This was the best they could do? The tools are nowhere near as useful as the weekly Tool Man (h/t to Valerie and her son).
Goodness, who are they gonna get for Harris’ fake role of VP if she does manage to blow her way through into His Fraudulency’s throne room?
We can only imagine.
It’s a grand show these vain, corrupt and very malicious people are putting on for us, eh?
INSANITY REIGNS WHILE LIFE GOES ON
Meanwhile, our daily lives gallop on. At least mine seems to gallop on. We don’t know the ending of the show, but it is probably wise to stay in top form in light of the uncommon times we are living in. Life in the time of Covid-2019, Covid-2020, and now Covid-2021 is getting a bit monotonous.
I BEG YOU to listen to (AND SHARE) Holocaust survivor Vera Sharav’s interview about how the medical establishment and the Corporate Elite in Nazi Germany (and internationally) joined with the Nazis to DO HARM and how our own government and medical establishment is doing this with Covid-19 now. She is warning us. It has come around again.
Click to watch: Where All Of This Is Heading
Note: Here is a link to an investigative piece Sharav mentions: Schwab Family Values. It shares a lot of what has been scrubbed from the net about Uncle Klaus and his background/family.
IN THE GARDEN
One’s thinking can get a bit stunted at times. I tend to get obsessed with certain political issues and forget that “The world is so full of a number of things, I’m sure we should all be as happy as kings,” to quote Robert Louis Stevenson .
To that end, I’ve been forcing myself offline a bit more. I’m tending more to my mental and physical garden. Someone said here the other day that they had invested in a stationary bike and cut sugar out. That really got me thinking about my own extended response to the political crisis we are being forced to endure. One thing I love about the Qtree is the great deal of wisdom I find here.
I have learned more about so many things just by reading the comments. Lots of subject matter experts, lots of life experience. Very grateful.
ON TO THE HOUSE RULES
You know the drill. We’re all growing together in this garden plot, so we might as well get along. Some of us are veggies, some are fruits, some are nuts, some are mushrooms. I self-identify as a nut. Anyway, here’s the Rules that keep us growing together. The Utree is for off-color, off-site stuff, and a place of refuge in case something happens here.
A LIBERAL LIBATION OF LIQUEUR
Speaking of nuts, today’s special is amaretto, a liqueur that tastes of almonds, although it’s made with apricot kernel oil. Disaronno is a favorite and probably the most familiar amaretto in America. The lovely and liquid amaretto liqueur dates back to the Renaissance, and according to legend:
“As legend has it, amaretto was first created back in The Renaissance by a beautiful young innkeeper in Saronno, Italy. In 1525, the citizens of Saronno were completing the reconstruction of their city which was hit hard by war. Bernardino Luini (a member of the Leonardo da Vinci School of Art) was commissioned by the Basilica of Santa Maria delle Grazie in Saronno to paint a fresco of the Adoration of the Magi, which included the Madonna.
Luini, passionate about his work and art, went on a lengthy search for the perfect model to represent his Madonna. He found that looking for someone who was patient, poised and beautiful was an arduous task until he first laid his artistic glance on the fair-haired innkeeper.
It was only a matter of time before the young innkeeper fell deeply and passionately in love with the artist. Her love was so deep that she created a special potion for her lover: amaretto. Unfortunately, the young innkeeper’s name has been lost, but her likeness and amaretto recipe lives on.”
Amaretto (“A little bitter” in Italian) has been used in Italian cuisine for centuries, such as the famous Italian cake “Tiramisu.” You can read more about it here. And above’s a recipe for a delicious Amaretto Sour. Don’t let the egg white deter you, these are really tasty cocktails.
HOW DOES YOUR GARDEN GROW?
My Chive Bed Has Come To Life
Back to tending our own gardens in this time of upheaval. Vox Day has published a short post (in full below) that says just that. I love it when I get these little confirmations. I started this article on Tuesday and Vox’s article shows up on Wednesday.
“Those who were previously just bystanders are beginning to find it invigorating:
I used to just listen to people talking about what’s happening, but once you said “conflict is in the air we breath,” as well as once I heard Owen talk about crushing, creating…I just started focusing on building a community vs fear-porn watching and being paralyzed by the temptations from Satan and the material world. Now I’ve got more friends than I have ever had before, who have homesteads, growing food, and truly care about the future of our community. Going from sterile sodomite land to where I’m at now… it’s awesome.
It’s the only way to make it to the next level. Start small, by leaving a review of a book on Amazon or buying an ebook from an author you haven’t read before. Later, perhaps you’ll start subscribing to UATV or starting a garden or getting on SG. Before long, you’ll be backing new projects, learning about the law, collecting leatherbound tomes for your future grandchildren, and making a material impact on the world around you.
One step. One breath. One dive into the waters of conflict. That’s all it takes to begin the transformation. That’s all it takes to belatedly discover that you weren’t created to be a penguin waddling about the sterile ice in squawking confusion, you were created to be a killer whale, roving the seas as part of a fearsome pack.”
Are we not seeing a Great Awakening?
On Thursday morning’s War Room, Steve Bannon and Sean Feucht (author and founder of Let Us Worship), spoke about the Great Awakening as a great shaking of the world, Episode #825, the last 30 minutes or so. No matter what I do, I can’t get it to embed. Haloooo, Wolf!
https://www.podbean.com/ew/pb-qjmv5-fed31a
MIGHTY MILO MAKES IT BACK
AND, here we have Milo Yiannopolous with his own Great Awakening. I remember being very grateful for Milo’s contribution to “Daddy” Trump getting elected. He’s a brilliant thinker, but I also saw he was headed for a bit of trouble. God, however, is turning it to good. In this interview he speaks of his own coming to terms with the sin of sodomy, and how he is taking his awakening one day at a time.
He also details how both the RINOs and the Left worked to destroy him, cancel him, ruin him financially. Please keep Milo in your prayers. His future plans include helping others to come out of the gay lifestyle. He is a potent enemy to the Left, and therefore under attack by both spiritual and material forces.
My own Great Awakening, besides the horrendous but needed understanding of our current political situation, has meant that I feel compelled to learn, appreciate, and pass on the truth, beauty, and goodness of our western civilization, which as we know, is in danger of being snuffed out.
Anyway, I bought myself (decades late) Mortimer J. Adler’s “How to Read a Book: The Classic Guide to Intelligent Reading.”
Adler includes an appendix with a listing of what has been called the Great Books. There are 137 books on the list. Dare I dive in and begin this literary journey exploring Western Civilization’s canon?
I DARE.
If anyone else is interested, I am more than happy to start a little reading club (maybe a future Qtree forum would be a great place to have it). Here’s the list: Adler’s List of Great Books
Adler said:
“A good book does reward you for trying to read it. The best books reward you most of all. The reward, of course, is of two kinds. First, there is the improvement in your reading skill that occurs when you successfully tackle a good, difficult work. Second—and this in the long run is much more important—a good book can teach you about the world and about yourself. You learn more than how to read better; you also learn more about life. You become wiser, Not just more knowledgeable—books that provide nothing but information can produces that result. But wiser, in the sense that you are more deeply aware of the great and enduring truths of human life.”
I WILL NEVER SURRENDER.
For those who are inclined to a Black Pill, Gen. McInerney speaks. Scroll down, the first image isn’t the link:
Here’s another Black Pill. The Great Awakening is not always pleasant.
The DHS can Puga ma hone.
I am getting old. I will go to sleep with my forefathers sooner rather than later. I will not BETRAY them by cowering before the tyrants. And I damned sure won’t BETRAY my grandchildren by bowing down before CCP/globalist puppets, those dirty POS. I spit on them.
Any American who colludes with the CCP is less than dirt. LESS. THAN. DIRT.
How many times do we have to do this?

No Dig Gardening–Charles Dowding
One of books in the header pic has a co-author named Charles van Doren. I’m pretty sure he’s the one who got busted for a TV quiz rigged game called The $64,000 Question. The producers wanted to make him into a brainiac star so they gave him the answers as he climbed up the levels. I’m also pretty sure they made a movie out of it, named Quiz Show.
YES. And we didn’t understand at the time, that FAKE ENTERTAINMENT was not just an odd exception.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Van_Doren
Good God, Wolf!!! Now, we have ‘Fake Entertainment’, too?
We’ve always had Fake Entertainment. Fake News (propaganda about events) and Fake Entertainment (propaganda about society) have been around forever. It’s just easy to see now.
I watched intently as “reality TV” morphed very quickly from “actual reality” to “poked reality” to “manipulated reality” to “directed reality” to “contrived reality” to “false reality”.
Turn it all off. It’s not here to do you any good. It’s ALL ant-poison.
I guess I did not see it as ‘fake’, Wolf – I saw it more as ‘predictive programming’ – never watched any reality programs – they bored me because they were so contrived.
I did not have time to watch much TV – so limited it to the ‘News’ and ‘Educational and Documentary films – then, I chucked the news when I realized they were lying to us.
Unfortunately, the alleged ‘educational’ and ‘documentary’ programs were filled with bogus stories and lies – so I really cannot say any of it was ‘reality’ for me.
Researching became a way to forgo the ‘predictive’ programming – and yet – it, too, had its drawbacks – much of with what we are facing today.
The $64,000 Question was from the 1950s.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_$64,000_Question
Dr Joyce Brothers was on it.
Yes yes she was, Church!!!
Yes. Good film.
Time zones screwed me up ’cause it’s still Thursday here on the left coast.
Today is my birthday. I’m now 73. No rude comments, please. Oh heck – never mind. Any comments will do.
73? I always thought you were 12….
j/k

Shoveling shit.
I tried to contact you on a prior thread. You were having computer issues?
You are so sweet, cthulhu!!!
I am on an old iPad and cannot access Wolf’s site unless I go through WP or CTH at all except on my iMac….so just trying to understand why.
Wolf suggested another browser…just not sure what the real problem is. Brave, maybe? I have not done that yet because my tablet may just be too old.
And I completely understand if there is no way to access unless I upgrade my iPad…it can only take 10.3.3…MD510LL/A.
TY in advance for anything. I had five days for both sites where everything was fine…then nothing!!!!
Ha!!!! Almost like a five night stand!!!
The first thing I would try is loading Brave and seeing if that works. Try https://brave.com/ first. If that doesn’t work, we can explore other methods to load it through the Apple Store.
cthulhu,
I just wanted to follow up with all of your help. I was not able to download Brave. That requires 12.6.4, to which my little tablet cannot seem to upgrade.
After looking at all of the other possibilities, it seems my early model is incompatible for any other upgrade other than the 10.3.3.
PS…the only way I can respond to Wolf’s site on my tablet is the bell at WP.
I was able to log in through his new site but unable to access through the tablet! Only the iMac. Shrug!
Would it help if we communicated at utree?
Do you read at Marica’s? She is still WP…
Marica1776.wordpress.com
We are currently on a thread about idioms. You can respond to me there if you can. Unless utree is still WP. I should have a pass in there…I signed up.
I’ll approve you in if there is trouble.
TY, Wolf!!! I seem to be such a burden! My apologies!
Hmmm..no access…Wolf…have you gone XXX?! LoL!!!!
Marica’s is a “Nice place“. I hesitate to go full geek there. Please try utree first.
OK, I will try that right now! Is it just utree.com?
There’s a link on the right. Let me know which thread you’re trying.
I just responded to you. The latest one!
And now, utree isn’t behaving for me….
WSB, try going to https://brave.com/ and seeing if it has handy tips to get you onto Brave….and please come back when we can communicate within our time zones.
I am still seeing you on Safari. Can you not see me on your browser?
OK, let’s start with — is it EASIER for you to interact on utree than here? It is easier for me to interact here, but I’m not the one having trouble, and I generally can interact there, although things got stuck for a bit.
You can see me in Safari on WHICH website?
I can see you now, no problem.
On which website?
I seem to be on dear keg…
Remember that I’m swapping back and forth between qtree and utree trying to keep track of where this discussion is going in order to keep it afloat. I apologize if it seems a bit schizophrenic, but if we get one channel stabilized it’ll help move forward.
I am seem to be on Utree.home.blog but seeing you on wp.
I’m no techie but if you are using the bell notifier on the black strip near the top of the page, & yours works like mine, if you click on a reply or like the item it’s referencing is a blue clickable link.
When I hover over that link a small white box appears at the lower left of my computer screen showing the URL. Hope that helps a bit…
Thanks for being such a great help to many around here!
You’ll note that you are a coyote and I am blank. I am never “logged in” according to wordpress, and see no black ribbons. I’m not using the bell notifier.
Nevertheless, by the grace of Wolf, I am a member of the community here, and will provide what help I can.
OK, thanks. I should have known you would know any little tricks of the trade around here. It was just meant to (potentially) be helpful.
Actually, your advice is very helpful. I don’t know “any little tricks of the trade around here” because I am — technically — a visiting alien. But it doesn’t do any good to explain them to ME, because I can’t see them — you should explain them to the people than need help.
So you don’t get the blue circle or smaller orange circle in the lower right? Do you not get the newer comments in a yellow background either? Those are features at this new site that are different & mostly nicer than the regular WP sites. Editing one’s comments & some extra features, bold, italics etc. are also nice, imo.
Those I get, because I am trusting Wolf’s site and his plugin choices on this site. I don’t get the same at Marica’s or Daughns or anywhere else.
I have been part of the security discussion here and have opened my wall for parts that have been discussed.
OK, it’s good you get some of the functionality around here. Are both Marica’s & Daughn’s similar to the new Q-Tree, a cousin of WP? I haven’t been to either site in ages…
I miss the way the notifier worked at the old Q-Tree for you could see All the likes & replies. This one is separate so you have to return to individual comments to see who they might resonate with.
Glad you guys w/ skills are on security–Blessings!!!
And, now, utree is working for me…..
Thanks, Wolf!
Requires iOS 12.0 or later. My tablet can only accept the 10.3.3… could be that is the problem unless there is another way around it. I have not been able to upgrade for a out a year and a half.
Excellent! This is progress.
I take it, then, that your machine is running iOS 10.3.3?
Yes!!! Ancient, I know!
2017 is ancient? I drive a 1994 automobile!
Here’s some fun while I dig — https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT207923
Always the support!!! Love the 1994 what?
PS my brother works for a movie production house in Laguna Beach…but I am always afraid to bother him with the old tech questions.
And I never want him to know the blogs I attend. He is brainwashed…
1994 Honda Accord Wagon with a stick.
A curmudgeon vehicle.
That is FABULOUS!!!!!! What color?
Can’t really say. When I bought mine, there were only a few in California, and I don’t want to make it too easy to dox me.
Mind you, AI is going to swamp such concerns soon enough.
Yes. Then we need to project all, and let them know we all have family midget oncologist Parkinson patient family members with 2015 green Volkswagens!
That’ll do it!
PS, my mother still has the top of the line Honda…sedan…dark green…two door…not sure what it is.
Mint condition and very few miles on it. Drives it to the grocery store and back every two weeks. Accord as well? Has everything on it.
Have some more Apple news — https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251075861
Well, that is very interesting!
How old is your device? Do you live near an Apple store? ‘Cause if you can run 10.3.3, it looks like you should be able to run something more modern.
From your digging…yes. I think 2009 or 2011.
Can you tell from the model number I gave you? Otherwise, I suppose I can plug in to update and find out the original date. That would take me a bit…
I don’t remember (or it was on utree) the model number.
MD510LL/A
PS…isn’t 10.3.3. 10.3.3?
I have a serial number, however, I should probably not share that…I could find out from Apple?
Do not share serial number on a blog. That’s one reason I was hinting toward Apple store….
Yes, understood!
So, I basically could work with Apple to upgrade my current iPad and have more options?
This was the same scam they ran on the 5S iPhone I have.
They wanted all of us to upgrade, but I smelled a rat that the battery was wearing down. Went to them to change the battery so THEY could break the goods…and yes they did… and rather than spending $900 more for the new phone, I had them replace it with…a new 5S!!!!
LOL
$29!
I still use it, and it is just fine except for the camera! Years later…no upgrade needed…maybe except for the 5G!
In general terms, you should ride with Apple as far as the Apple you bought will allow you. Anything in the future, you should look to Linux; anything that Apple won’t support anymore, you should look to convert to Linux.
OK, so I need to upgrade, and either Apple can assist or Linux can, and then I should be able to access the newer blog platforms?
I will start the inquiry if you believe I can actually upgrade my software on my old hardware…never saw that upgrade option before!!!! You are such a mole!!!!
🐭 ❤️
TY for the forensics!!!
Try the Apple first. They won’t help you with the Linux (they’d rather you buy the latest model), but there are resources.
Circle back and let me know how things go. We want you onboard!
If they try digging a grave w/ that it looks to thwart that process a bit!
LOL!!!
🙂
I should note that it is quite possible for amateurs to make liqueurs — sometimes copies of old ones, and some that are new. Some may be intriguing and tasty, some may be boring, some may even give you the opportunity to call some dinosaurs from the privacy of your own residence….
But a badly made almond liqueur can leave you stone cold dead.
Almonds, as well as stone fruits, contain cyanide in their bark and seeds (including the nut). “A little bitter” may be a twinge for people with ample lung capacity, but may be a threat to those whose blood oxygen is impaired. “A lot bitter” from the same source can put you in the ground.
Mind you, Amaretto is going to be thoroughly safety-ized and should not be a concern. There was, IIRC, a traditional liqueur where the first bit from a sealed bottle should be poured into the drain. But amateur liqueurs….unless they’re yours or you know the producer well, be cautious.
Mind you, “you know the producer well…” also implies, “…and they have no reason to want you dead.”
This is also why you never decorate animal cages with branches/wood from stone fruit trees. It doesn’t take much to chew off enough cyanide to kill a small animal.
Good tip!
“to blow her way through” I hope that was the G/PG version of “blow” you meant 😉
😉
Rather sure Hoe’s been working “it”, since she was a teenage valley girl.
Yep. Ugh.
yikes, that would have been a coffee spit–you need a warning label for some comments 😉
Apropos of nothing, I have this peculiar way of amusing myself whenever I drive long distances. I try to read freeway offramp signs as character names in novels I may someday write.
“Tiburon Belvedere watched the colorful sunset with his friends Maricopa Bakersfield and Nipomo Tefft…..”
Since the usual pattern is “local city, major city”, you can easily find established families like the Reddings or the Stocktons.
I’ve lived long enough to see roads change, and offramps renamed….if I had a “Maricopa Bakersfield” character and the offramp was changed, would I have to kill-off her character?
Of course, Neal Stephenson already went there — and further — when the main character of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snow_Crash was named “Hiro Protagonist”.
For some reason this reminds me of our early marriage when my husband worked for an oil & gas field supply company in Northern Michigan, before his company had CB’s in their trucks. He needed to find a drill site to deliver either down-hole piping or a pit liner. The directions he had told him to turn on Amoco Road. He drove up & down the road from which he was to turn & never saw any Amoco Road signs.
Finally he stopped & asked someone for directions–yes ladies it has happened w/ my guy! The helpful local said the actual name of the road, which now escapes me, but everyone just Called it Amoco Road because 20 years previously there were Amoco trucks running up & down that road for weeks or months!
He not being a local had No Idea that someone could give him directions using non-existent, at least in signage, road names! Good times…& he’s got Lots of crazy stories from back then & tells them Way Better than I ever could, caveman campfire communications & all 😉
Classic American directions — “drive down the old Smithfield road before there was an interstate, and take a right where the Franklin House used to be. If you get to the white rock that had the Oak behind it, you’ve gone too far. Go to the third stop sign past the end of the road, and hook a left. About a mile past that, you’ll find a gravel parking lot on the right, where you can see three white houses. Hike to the one with the gingerbread eaves.
LOL! so true
Yup. When I grew up, “The Gravel Road” and “The Dirt Road” were understood by everybody near us, because “The Next Dirt Road” was clearly further away. LOL.
Eventually they put more gravel on The Dirt Road, but the gravel looked so dirty, the name still worked!
With time, however, people started calling them by their real names. “Progress.”
When all the street signs are removed (like in WWII, in case of invasion) only the locals will Really know how to get around…& that might mostly be a good thing!
Tom Holt made a similar observation from the London Underground map. There were some old Viking visitors having come to London and were travelling on the Underground, and they considered that map to be a drawing of a set of family trees, what with the various Parks and Courts and so on.
When I see those March Madness brackets I always think genealogy too 🙂

hope the image shows…
Perhaps weird linkage or sorts. Maps showing where the river was before OR IS NOW, in Taipei, as I recall.
Then there is…
As cities grow, road physical locations change entirely. I-80 just before Fairfield. Relatively close to Jelly Belly Company. Once upon a time Budweiser was on the north side of I-80. These days the same Budweiser Brewery is on the south side of I-80.
Neal Stephenson is the way to go if your looking for a relevant, rigorous and quite enjoyable diversions. I’ve read “The Diamond Age, or Young Lady’s Illustrated Primer”, “Snow Crash”, which are two of his smaller books, then “Cryptomonicon”, “Quick Silver”, “The Confusion” and “The System of the World”, the last four being a series with the first one starting in both the present time and that of WWII while the other three bring you back to the late 1600-early 1700’s to connect the characters ancestors in the first book. Along with “The Rise and Fall of D.O.D.O”. and will finish “Anathem” by tomorrow. Luckily I have three more of his books in the stack.
All of his books are rip roaring adventures, heavily dosed with tech, science, philosophy, monetary theory and history with great character development and original plots that keep twisting through out. I’d add that the smarter more educated you are, the likelihood you will enjoy his books all the more, but if a dolt like me can enjoy them, so can anyone here.
When I bolded relevant above that is to say to our times.
So, Gma, do you have the “chive thingie”? — https://gardenuity.com/mincingscissors/
Just my trusty chef’s knife. 😁
Oops. Fell asleep and forgot to schedule the post.
Woke up in a panic. 🤣
Thank you for publishing it, Wolf.
No problem! It looked too good to let sit waiting for a touch-up!
Me too – I slept until 12:30 – forget what day it was, even!
The forum sounds worth starting up just for book club alone. Will get to that during April, if possible!
Oh, that will be fantastic!!
I just need a long day to flip all the switches and make all the announcements.
In your good timing. Meanwhile, I will research. 😄
I’d been thinking of (eventually–gotta get our taxes done–ugh!) doing a post to collect book recommendations. The forum sounds Way Better!!!
Could we include videos? There is one that was recommended to me and while I don’t regularly watch movies anymore, this is one I watch periodically. 6 episodes on one DVD. Each time, I still enjoy it. It is called “The Heavy Water War” and it is the true life story about the race to get nuclear weapons in WWII. Filmed on location. Suggest English-only speakers get the DVD with subtitles in English. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Heavy_Water_War
That is a great idea. A film forum.
yes !!
That’s another great idea! I think it would be great to have a place to gather resources that we might consider helpful to others. Since it’s Wolf’s blog he, of course, has the final say. I’ll try to keep your thought in mind if I ever do such a resource gathering post. Thanks Barb!
All’s well that ends well…..
Praying for America!

OMG.
LOL!!!
It looks like they told him in what order to call on them too–just wow!
Do you think he still has an understanding that he’s in decline, or does his arrogance blind him?
It is horrible what they are doing to him.
Agree.
He is a declining monster surrounded by monsters.
Uh, Dementia Joe is as guilty as the rest of the bastards.
Xibiden deserves every bit of embarrassment he gets and more. He would have a hell of a time in prison with his proclivities. I weep for our country.
I have Zero clue. I Know my mind is Not what it used to be & when I can’t think of a word it’s frustrating & sometimes embarrassing. but he’s a nearly untouchable pedo politico who is corrupt, bought, & unrestrained by God’s or man’s laws…so who knows?
His arrogance has always blinded him, and the majority of DC.
Might want to archive this photo before RobberJoe’s handlers scrub it off the internet…like they apparently scrubbed off the “press conference”.
good idea

And we win again, going away…
So three of the “races” are honest, and one is not?
Or one is so scared to show Any differentiation that they have cultural Stockholm Syndrome!
“So three of the “races” are honest, and one is not?”
____________
Or all four gave honest answers, and three are virulently racist.
And none of those three are white people.
I have a problem with the word “racist” because it has become meaningless. It is a mere epithet.
But it is a powerful epithet because it finds fertile ground in the human psyche. IMO there is approximately zero human beings who are capable of not having some sort of opinion about races other than their own.
As crude, overdrawn, and often unfair as the opinion might be, the opinion is unavoidable in most normal people, and is often not crude, not overdrawn and not unfair, although favorable or unfavorable. And it is often not racist.
If you asked whether a person HATED another, and every, person based on their race, that is a different question.
The word racist will not be clarified in my lifetime, but it is greatly discouraging to me that non-leftists readily accept the premise of this powerful and totally bogus boogey word, as if it were a real thing to be concerned about.
“The word racist will not be clarified in my lifetime, but it is greatly discouraging to me that non-leftists readily accept the premise of this powerful and totally bogus boogey word, as if it were a real thing to be concerned about.”

It is just another of the enemy’s weapons of war.
We can let them attack us with it and not put up a defense, or we can take it and turn it against them.
As for whether racism is real, people can be taught to believe just about anything.
If the graph above, it looks like Asians, blacks and Hispanics have been taught to love themselves the most and hate whitey the most, with the other races somewhere in between.
This is hardly surprising, considering the MSM, government, academia, entertainment media and Big Tech fetish with making white people the cause of every social ill and evil.
When they do that, year after year after year, it’s going to have an obvious and predictable (and desired) effect.
That graph shows how effective the psy-op has been.

Yes it’s almost worth scaring up the “Old Guys Rule” song by The Union of Saints & Sinners, iirc 🙂
“Old Guys Rule”
https://www.theunionofsinnersandsaints.com/
Few artists have been more influential in defining the CCM brand than Petra and WhiteHeart, so fans will likely jump out of their skins when they hear that John Schlitt, lead singer of Petra, and Billy Smiley, guitarist, singer, and founder of WhiteHeart, have teamed up for the new 2019 StoryTeller Tour with special guest Jason Fowler.
The Union of Sinners and Saints features members from the two bestselling Christian Rock bands of all time, with over 15 million albums sold, 25 #1 songs, 15 Grammy and 40 Dove awards and nominations between them.
Lyrics from a Google search
Old Guys Rulefrom The Union of Sinners and Saints
Lyrics
Put the needle down and feel the groove
The sound is something and it makes you move
You had a message that was coming through
Check it out…
It was all about the human race
And being part of what was taking place
Making choices that we had to face
Then is now…
Old guys rule,
We ain’t fools,
Old guys rule
You say its different but its all the same
End up playing all these stupid games
Now you only have yourself to blame
Who’s the fool?
Don’t let people try to put you down
Cuz everything will always come around
We saw it then like we see it now
It’s so cruel…
Old guys rule –
We ain’t fools,
Old guys rule
Wisdom is nothing to laugh about
Too often we throw it away
The value of all this experience
Is something we all should embrace
Don’t let anybody put you down
Cuz everything will always come around
We saw it then like we see it now
Then is now…
Then is now…
Old guys rule,
We ain’t fools
Old guys rule
Old guys rule,
Old Guys rule
We’re all the fools

Taiwan says it’s now making long-range missile capable of striking China — RT World News
Taiwan said it is now mass producing a long-range missile capable of striking deep into China and is actively developing three more models – with the missile program deemed “a priority” by Taipei.rt.com
Taiwan produces the most sophisticated semiconductors in the world. Should they choose to do so (and many suspect they have) they could easily have nukes. They are near enough that they could almost lob bombs underhand and hit the mainland.
On the other hand, China has engineered a wildly unnatural surplus of military-aged young males with their reproductive policies. They have to get rid of them. If they could burn a few hundred thousand while seizing prime assets in Taiwan, it would be an easy choice.
Dark but likely mostly correct–yikes!

From Patriots.win.
I like the meme and was about to take a screen shot to repost when I first checked his twitter account:
Tweets by ThomasSowell
It might be fake unless its from another social media account as I only checked twitter
I took a screen shot starting below Thomas Sowell, just of the meme itself to share.
Sharing in case others want to screen shot and share but want to be careful of what they share.
Ah thanks.
Here’s another for ya, but minus the fake stuff:
I love the idea of a Q Tree book club.
Kristi Noem stepped in it bigly when she changed her mind on signing a bill to prevent biological males from competing in girls’ sports through college.
She has doubled down, apparently in fear of being punished by the NCAA and sued.
Meanwhile, the governor of Arkansas signed a similar bill.
Kristi, say it ain’t so.
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/03/24/kristi-noem-says-she-is-victim-of-conservative-cancel-culture-and-knee-jerk-headlines/
Techno_Fog has a good blog post explaining the South Dakota bill. tl;dr: The bill is vague, and very likely wouldn’t hold up in higher court challenges. Noem’s proposed changes weren’t any better, plus the PR response was horrible. South Dakota blew it in general.
I agree that the last thing MAGA needed right now was the news that Governor Noem of all people was fighting this bill, but I am left wondering if the bill itself was a deliberate poison pill from the cabal. Bring a poorly-constructed (conservative) case to the higher courts, have federal judges shoot down the obviously bad case, everyone in America is legally required to follow the new court ruling. Bonus for sabotaging Governor Noem’s future political career after refusing to go along with the COVID narrative.
I admit I’m probably being too charitable, but I wonder…
https://technofog.substack.com/p/one-last-word-on-governor-noem
I agree that she was probably handed a s**t-sandwich. But she fumbled her response.
Techno_Fog agrees, and I agree as well.
Exactly.
Said with respect, but IMO she did not “fumble” her response. We do not know her precise motivations, but we know enough to know she was deliberate, and her motivation was bad.
The movie ain’t over. The shit-sandwich might get transformed.
For instance, nothing prohibits the leg from making more corrections than she suggests. It could come out looking stronger that any poison pill bill was.
Wouldn’t that chap the enemy’s hide?
She and her peeps should’ve been dissecting that bill long before it got to her desk and before she gave her original ringing endorsement of it.
If she’d been on the ball she should’ve publicly critiqued its shortcomings as it was being debated. She would’ve been the hero and the bill might have been better written.
As it is, she came out swinging and fell flat on her face.
Exactly! Her actions or lack of action, whatever they were, imply a bad motivation, whatever that is.
For her bogus criticism of “conservatives” alone, she should be deleted and shunned.
And for her utter stupidity in handling the issue, alone, she should be deleted and shunned.
We have to stop making excuses for these infiltrators.
I agree. That she is complaining of cancel culture is just rich.

3/25
Fantastic article. Bookmarked Rappaport’s site.
I agree…just happened upon it this morning.
Local social media reports that a nearby rural area has many vaccine appointments available. According to someone claiming to work at the rural vaccine clinic in question, the only people showing up for vaccines are people from out-of-town. The only thing that surprises me is that it’s starting this early.
Morning all. FYI, although the flavor of Disaronno is one of bittersweet almonds, the product is actually an infusion of apricot kernel oil along with a secret recipe of other herbs and fruits.
For a great alternative: Lazzaroni Amaretto, the Authentic Italian Amaretto since 1851, is still produced and bottled in Saronno, Italy. According to an old and unique formula: the infusion of their famous almond cookies “Amaretti di Saronno” in alcohol.
Apricot kernels are a relative of almonds and probably give a stronger, more concentrated flavour.
GinT can perhaps verify — or not.
I would like to recommend a couple things.
I watched a well done hour long documentary on Chernobyl a couple weeks back and became very curious, so I got a book on Chernobyl by Serhii Plokhy. Wow!
This is a highly detailed history (of the “journalistic” sort) which gets down to the nitty gritty in all aspects: the technology, the persons involved, the politics, the particulars of the disaster itself. The account is quite gripping because the details are fascinating.
Just to give an example, the disaster was caused by a design flaw (as well as copious amounts of human failure). I am particularly stupid when it comes to technical stuff, but the author’s description, though intricate, is written so even I can follow and be absorbed.
The sheer human tragedy is wonderfully portrayed.
And the effects of communism are truthfully given and described, though this book is NOT chiefly about communism, although maybe it is. You will recognize the communist techniques including lawfare which are being used in America today.
Just an aside: the communists held a congress a month or so before the disaster, and they were very upbeat and optimistic about the prospects of communism. They had big plans to return communism to the original communism (in their minds).
The book persuaded me that Chernobyl was the EVENT which led to the dissolution of the USSR. Yes, the book acknowledges Reagan’s definitive role in that dissolution.
It occurred to me that we are in a similar circumstance, with the CCP and its coalition of plutocrats and Democrats in total control. The People of Russia NEEDED Chernobyl to loose the communist grip, an EVENT which threatened even the communists themselves and made them frightened, in addition to creating a break which emboldened people to advocate for Truth with boldness.
I am thinking, provisionally, that we also need a Chernobyl type EVENT which creates a break and shifts power back to the people, something beyond anyone’s control. Does this make sense?
My second suggestion is O. Henry. It is only in old age when I have come to appreciate his stories. His use of language is on a par with Wodehouse, but with a more gentle effect. I love the gentleness of his writing, even when he describes tragic circumstances (which is rare).
What the heck. Speaking of Western Civilization. Adler is 100% correct. What a precious treasure our literature is, for us and for all. It describes human nature and humanity. Of course the communists and lunatics want to destroy it.
IMO, Plato’s dialogue Gorgias should be read by everyone, over and over. It gets to the heart of Fake News, and shows how Fake News is a spiritual matter, a matter of character and integrity, a matter relating to our immortal souls. The subject is persuasion, and I once wrote Scott Adams to ask if he ever read Gorgias, but did not get an answer.
The dialogue discusses suffering and justice, and puts those spiritual issues into wonderful perspective. And the several personality types in the dialogue are delightful because they are readily identifiable even to modern eyes.
Would you lead the Wolf’s Pub Club when we get that book? Please?
Wonderful comment. Thank you.
Would love to!
There are so many aspects of the book which are interesting and valuable. One is how human nature cannot be totally defeated by communism. There were many “normal” Russians who were genuine heroes at Chernobyl, despite the disaster the Ruling Class dumped on them.
Yay!!! I’m really looking forward to it!

I think it started long before he was thrust upon us – but, hey – what do I know?
You are right. I should have said that it was then that the plan became obvious. Before that I wasn’t paying attention.
You were not alone – many people had no idea from where we came to the present – however – lots of researchers – then, called conspiracy theorists – were well aware of the evil plan over hundreds of years – constant conflict and wars – over years – and not one of us knew who the puppet masters really were – knowledge has increased immeasurably since the death of JFK – however – before that – we were pretty much in the dark about their plans.
And yet – there were ‘leakers’ then, too.
I remember reading an article about O – wherein a Russian woman said O was going to be President – so in 2007 – I realized the ‘fix was in’ – it was all planned well in advance – unbeknownst to us!!!
PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ, amen.

GOOD MORNING! Nothing But The Truth?
march 26, 2021 the marshall report
https://themarshallreport.wordpress.com/2021/03/26/good-morning-nothing-but-the-truth/
Biden White House received hard questions from the new White House Reporter Ronald Crump. It has to be true because he’s seen wearing a CNN Identification tag.
[Excerpt] Read more at the link above…
Regarding CHIVES – I had wonderful chives for the first dozen or so years – enough to thin out and pot to give to neighbors – then aphids or some bug – and some critters (possums, squirrels, armadillos, deer?) started eating them!
For several years now, I have had a pot that I stuck some green onions in and they keep growing nicely – and nothing eats them – and they supply all my green onion top needs.
I have to grow my rosemary (essential for pork) in a pot too – it’s too wet and the soil around here is too dense for the rosemary to grow in the ground.
As for parsley – I love fresh flat Italian parsley for cooking and for tuna salad, etc. I grow it in a pot during the Fall and Winter. It goes to seed in the summer – or the caterpillars get it.
My rosemary was devastated from the cold snap. I had three foot tall bushes. All dead but a few wisps.
My parsley bed went belly up, too. Biennels were in their first season.
Lost some cacti and landscape bushes, too.
Sigh.
Sounds like you are further north than I am….on the GA/FL border.
Yep. Almost in Oklahoma.
My rosemary died also. But the 20+ year old chives are still going strong!
Chives rock!
Good morning all! Ive been taking a bit of a break from things and doing major spring cleaning inside and out. updated window curtains in bedroom and living room. made a big difference and looks so much better. working out a trip to Vegas to see grandkids next month, other than that life goes on!
Good morning!

What fresh hell is this …
https://www.koin.com/news/oregon/four-people-being-monitored-for-ebola-virus-in-oregon/
That’s the next wave of pandemic. At least one prognosticator said this was coming.
I have a dear friend who told me this was to be the next pandemic … she told me last year.
Well, it appears that the CDC is monitoring 23 persons in Washington State who also visited Ebola-active areas in Africa.
And, guess what? The CDC says that there’s “low risk” of other people being exposed or getting infected by the virus in Oregon and Washington State.
Wasn’t it the CDC who said that there was “low risk” of the CCP Virus spreading outside of Washington State from the first person who brought it the U.S. in January 2020, after traveling to WUHAN?
At least they are consistent. 🙄
I think you’re right !! Ok, that’s a coincidence that I don’t believe… WTH ?
the reading/book club is a great idea…
I highly recommend this one, if you haven’t read it…and if you have, it’s definitely a keeper..
Chambers writes beautifully…many passages moved me so profoundly, I had to put the book down for a few minutes to relish his words…and sometimes let the tears pass from my eyes…very poignant…
a profound expose on communism and betrayal….by someone who lived it, regretted it and lived to tell about it.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
5 star rating
When Wolf gets the forum up We could do a few brainstorming sessions of how to organize and which books, etc.
I kinda want to read the Greats, but interspersed with other books of interest, like this one, perhaps.
I put it on my list.
smiley…agreed…ab Witness.
Daunting looking, lengthwise, but SO readable.
My old copy is dog-eared, having been passed around for years.
Not a single person who read this book thought it less than excellent…A real eye-opener.
Chambers is so v human.
And a piece of American history wherein our blindness, and the machinations of those who would keep us blind, are thoroughly explored and documented.
very well-put, piper.
a timeless warning….that’s what Chambers was a witness to….
…and not just as a witness in the Hiss trial.

Watching video of last night’s Trump interview on Laura’s show and it stopped. Went to YT and it was same. Warroom reporting that Ingraham/Fox cut POTUS off because they were not gonna rehash election results. Dominion dropped a $1Billion+ lawsuit on Fox this morning.
First I’ve read that Laura/Fox cut off Trump, live I assume.
^^^ More confirmation Faux News is in the tank for the deep state. ott that we needed more confirmation..
How it is being reported
https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/world/laura-ingraham-cut-trump-off-when-he-tried-to-repeat-false-claims-the-election-was-stolen-as-fox-news-faces-defamation-lawsuits/ar-BB1eZSj7

“…we are not going to relitigate…”
They NEVER litigated the stolen election.
My fervant wish IS Dominion had the guits to sue Trump. THEN, we’d get the truth out in the open.

I know it was spreading by November 2019, because I had it right around Thanksgiving.

Great stuff. I think he’s right. They need a minor Ebola outbreak in the U.S. now.
TREASON.
So apparently the CDC (yeah, one can really trust these people — after all, Dr. Nancy Messonier [Rod Rosey’s sister]) is a big honcho there, right?) is now monitoring persons in
Washington State
Oregon
Ohio
Kentucky
who all “somehow” managed to travel to Ebola-epicenters in Africa “just recently“.
And apparently the CDC and the governors of these States are all saying that “the risk is low” that this virus could spread.
The same CDC that said “the risk is low” that the CCP Virus could spread back in January 2020, right?
And, like, we’re all just supposed to take this latest “the risk is low” as Gospel, just like we were told last January, right?
And, like, whereas the CCP Virus has a 95%+ survival rate, the Ebola Virus has a 50% – 90% fatality rate, right?
So, like, the DeepState and the Soros-Clinton-Davos Cabal, having stolen the 2020 election from POTUS 45 Donald Trump (and other Republicans who were running in down-races and should have won); having hobbled the economic boom that POTUS 45 Donald Trump got going; having basically “installed” Dr. Fauci as Czar over our lives — and still not completely destroying the American spirit, the Constitution and Bill of Rights — want to try the Ebola Virus next?
And yet, Christian Drosten (the fourth Doctor (of the) W.H.O.), Merde-Kuh’s darling, did a MAJOR F-UP with Ebola here in Germany… much like Faux-Xi did with AIDS.
Have to wonder if all of these failures are connected, erm, intentional.

5 Latest Facts About Johnson & Johnson’s Ebola VaccineAs the European Commission grants Marketing Authorization for the company’s Ebola vaccine regimen—a key step towards enabling broader access to it for the people who need it most—we share top facts about the vaccine for the deadly virus.
By Camille Chatterjee, Staff Content Strategist, Global Content LabJuly 01, 2020
One of the world’s deadliest viral diseases was discovered in 1976 in Zaire, now known as the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), near the Ebola River.
Since then, there have been 30 outbreaks of Ebola Virus Disease (EVD)—the worst of which hit in West Africa in 2014. During that two-year epidemic, more than 11,000 people died in Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. Two in five individuals who were infected with the disease, then lost their lives.
In the meantime, Johnson & Johnson had already begun working on a potential vaccine for filoviruses—a family of viruses that includes Ebola. In the wake of the 2014 outbreak, the company accelerated those efforts with a focus on Ebola, and continued that work even when the crisis in West Africa had passed.

China Joe! TRAITOR!!!

Exactly. I think that’s one reason they selected Pervy Joe as the Pretend candidate. After they installed him and “he” instituted the changes that are unpopular (but will NOT be rescinded) when Harris assumes the role…she can always blame Biden for anything she (they) choose
Trump should show up at the border – before Biden.
I’m hoping he stays far away from that mess.
The Enemedia/Dems are looking for a way to blame it on him.
KamaHarr already made it plain that “the border crisis was caused by Trump” when she made that speech about how RobberJoe and she were going to “make it right”.
Yep…so why give them the optics that they would use to support their lies.
Kamala Harris is a CCP clownette. EVIL INCARNATE.
I only posted it because I’ve read that he’s considering it.
I think it might be a good move, personally. We have to make this administration look every bit of what it is…..

GA/FL Garden Report 3/26/21
1. Front Porch – furniture covered in pollen
2. Herbs in pots – parsley, rosemary, green onion, basil just coming up –
3. Front garden bed – pansies, johnny jump ups, a few snapdragons – and the blue salvia survived the winter!
4. Petunias at the back corner of bed – my first year to try petunias!
5. Dianthus – aka Pinks – at the other back corner – shielded from afternoon sun by boxwoods
6. Easter lilies – too late for Easter this year?
7. Azaleas and Dogwood around town have been in full bloom the last week
or so
8 My arugula is getting tall and blooming – will go to seed soon. This is my fourth year for volunteer/re-seeded arugula. Now the latest year’s seedlings have been curly, pretty, tender and delicious, even up the stalk.
We do most of our herbs in pots too. Have the oregano in a bed with our rosemary and it almost took the whole raised bed over! I had 2 rosemaries, but the one we mostly harvested from didn’t make it over the winter. Think overharvesting and the oregano mostly did it in rather than the cold. The other rosemary is 3 years old now and almost 3′ tall.
Rosemary is very intolerant of drought, or wet, heavy soil….
I think if they are in wet, heavy soil from the beginning they will be okay. (My soil is both.)
But, if they are in a dry climate and get deluged or are accustomed to moist soil and suffer a drought, they will suffer.
There is a lot of rosemary on the Cote d’Azur in France. That’s a dry, hot climate during the summer.
There is a wild rosemary that grows on the Florida gulf coast barrier islands. I’ve brought some home and it grew well in S GA – which had sandy soil. In our area of N FL, the soil is clay and dense.
Maybe if it adapts as a young plant it’s okay in another soil?
Interesting theory – the sudden change theory. I’d have to agree. It’s irritable to say the least. I’ve kept my last plant alive in that pot for a couple of years now.
There is a columnar basil that is attractive in shape, with small leaves, that is supposed to be able to withstand some cold. I’ve never found one to purchase.
IMHO, it was the overharvesting.
Don’t move your rosemary, either. They are sensitive plants and will likely die.
They also don’t like other plants touching their upper leaves.
Speaking here from my and my friends’ experiences.
Thank you for the tips. I’m going to start over with my rosemary hedge. One of four bushes survived.
You can probably start a couple of shoots without flowers in very dark wine bottles filled with water placed on a window sill over a number of weeks. Be patient.
This was a tip I learned at university. Get a healthy shoot of any plant that is about six inches long, fill a very dark wine bottle full of water, put the shoot in the bottle with the water covering the bottom inch and it will eventually take root. Then you can plant it once it gets good root growth.
I haven’t tried it with rosemary but I’ve done it with any number of plants. Tomato shoots don’t work, though.
I have a lovely fuschia that took two months to properly develop roots in this manner. It’s in the front garden now and kept growing through the winter months. It’s been flowering ever since.
Funny you mentioned that. I had actually rooted some rosemary for a friend last fall.
Did just as you instructed. I had to change the water out about once a week and a couple shoots died, but most rooted and I have a nice plant to give her.
Excellent.
I’ve never changed the water. Just filled it up again.
Thanks!
You’re welcome!
So beautiful!! I am waiting on my cosmos bed to grow. The daffodils had a poor showing due to the cold.
I have about 30 rose bushes and they are still are weeks from blooming.
Growing roses is a real achievement! They take a lot of care….but oh the reward!
I just trimmed my 2 knockout roses back a couple of weeks ago. They are already filling back out and should look great this year!
I swear by those! I just bought three more to put in the front yard and fill in the landscaping. They are champs!!!
The Parsley was gorgeous – until – the weather got up to the lower 80s. Parsley is a winter plant here, as is Arugula.
Beautiful pics GA/FLA , you have the green thumb for sure .
Impressive arugula, I can relate to the pollen pic ,the wild yellow jasmine here covered everything with yellow pollen , although the recent rains washed most of it away for us 😄
This is our first spring in South Alabama ,spending a lot of time out doors and discovering
all sorts of new plants, weeds and fauna in general. Spending a lot of time outdoors.
Azaleas are flowering, roses all have buds different flowers blooming..Everything is coming alive ! Spending alot of time on the internet, researching/identifying , when the sun goes down, Coming from a Mid Atlantic state.. it’s all new to us,.. as is wearing shorts and flip-flops in February .. 😆
I agree Chris. I am from Md and really enjoy the E. TN weather a bit more.
Hi CM ,
I’m expecting the weather here to be hot and humid. No illusions about that
When we moved here last fall from Md. , the snow-blower and snow-shovels ‘conveyed’ 😂
The mountains in east Tenn, area create/allow a cooler more moderate climate.
My mothers family ‘migrated’ to the Johnson city/Elizabethton area in the 40’s
from just due east, high in the North Carolina mountains.
Our family made countless trips from Md. to those areas, for years growing up.
Two sisters and families live there now, one in the house my grandfather built with large river rock ,hauled up from the Doe river . Lot’s of kin in that area.
Great memories.
I have a picture somewhere circa late 1800’s of my ancestors in Johnson City who were mule traders.
That’s incredibly cool to have the hand built home still in the family.
Yes it really is, we almost lost it with some family squabbling .
But with cooler heads and a little planning, it all worked out.
Hopefully we can keep younger generations with the same view in it.
Mule traders from Johnson city ,..well ya’ don’t say?..
I always thought the real world began there.
Who knows ?..we might be related . 😅
haha..could be..ya never know
haha
Cuzin … 😂
It is the pine and oak trees that give us the most pollen – we’ve been in the red pollen zone for a month now! https://www.pollen.com/
That pollen dust is pervasive. The 1st thing that I have to do when we get to South Carolina in May is wash the house outside and the porch and every outside bench. My neighbor told me the other day that my brother had come over to sit on my porch and smoke a cigar but he forgot to cover the glider back up. The pollen hotline!
Pollen ~
I need my rescue inhaler just looking at the pictures~
~ BEES – EpiPen !
Ya’ know ,after thinking about it you are absolutely right.
We are surrounded by thousands of acres of pulp-pine forest and lots of wild live oak…it’s all blooming, the Jasmine is only a small part of it.
I remember seeing huge clouds of yellow pollen drifting from neighbors row of pine behind their home in Md,
They ended up cutting fifty or more ,25 ft trees down because of it.
Note to self: pay more attention to the natives. 😏
Thanks for the link, we are in the orange zone.
Thanks GA !!
How pretty! I wanna come sit on your porch and drink sweet tea!
Every time I see today’s title – I think of this Florida Attraction!
Weeki Wachee Springs! https://weekiwachee.com
Florida has dozens, maybe hundreds of clear blue springs and rivers.
Up in N FL – all the families and church youth groups go tubing down the Itchetucknee river to the springs.
There are several Blue Springs.
Florida has springs, rivers, lakes, limestone underground river systems, sink holes, a karst aquifer system.
Lol. 😁😄

MORE – about the Suez ship grounding.
https://townhall.com/tipsheet/connormcnulty/2021/03/25/suez-canal-ship-delaying-global-trade-n2586877
I’d get a bunch of tugboats to pull it away from the sand bank from the rear.
Obviously the canal should be dug deeper to accommodate such big heavy ships.
Once a ship grounds there is no amount of tugs that can move it. You either drop the weight, ballast or mother nature provides more water.
Thanks, RF121
I can’t help but think that this was deliberate…
While that ChiCom container boat sits there, hundreds of other ships are waiting, STUCK WAITING on the ChiComs…
Nuke it from space.
It’s the only way to be sure…..
Have you seen the dick-pics?
https://nypost.com/2021/03/24/cargo-ship-drew-penis-before-getting-stuck-in-suez-canal/
It was ON PURPOSE. It had to be.
I think somebody hacked and took over the guidance system on the ship.
I agree. Taiwanese vessel? The question is, which side. Based on the past apparent success of the ChiComs pulling off such stuff on our Navy, I think it’s the ChiComs, and their buddies are saturating our side with hopanyl to keep our military underpowered, and SleepyCreepy in line, saying “C’mon, man!”

J E Dyer, former US Navy Intel analyst, weighs in on the Suez Canal situation:
https://libertyunyielding.com/2021/03/26/interesting-situation-with-m-v-ever-given-container-ship-stuck-in-suez-canal/
As usual – Dyer is EXCELLENT !!! She brings a lot to the table – especially her thorough knowledge of naval vessels, etc.
THIS COMMENT to Dyer’s post is important – all the big ships going through harbors and canals – MUST BE TOWED BY TUGS – they can’t be allowed to use their big turbines and propellers – because they would damage the canals and wreck docks and marinas, sink small vessels.
https://libertyunyielding.com/2021/03/26/interesting-situation-with-m-v-ever-given-container-ship-stuck-in-suez-canal/#comment-5318173040
The big question then is who did it and why. Going into tight passages like canals and rivers, the pilot would be a specialist. I know in the US ships going into the rivers from abroad have local pilots guiding them. Even with a tug you have to have that. (Remember, I live on the “island” between the Mississippi and the Missouri Rivers.) So, was it a local pilot, or did somebody out there hack into the guidance system and take control?
And I would like to know how long this particular ship has been scheduled for this particular route. Logistics, in this case, matter.
Several industries schedule seasons and movement 2-3 years out. Does shipping? I honestly don’t know, but I do know in events and sports and professional entertainment scheduling, it’s done YEARS in advance.
Who knew this ship was going into that canal and where to ground it?
Details….
Very good questions.
If this was done intentionally and possibly a couple years in advance, if things had gone the right way this would be in a Trump admin.
The purpose would be ? Exposing human traffickers?
That would be my thought. My one SIL is a retired Marine. Her office was in a shipping container and was shipped all over the world.
Going from China to the Netherlands….
I’ve been to the Red Light District in Amsterdam. The sex workers were Asian. Just sayin’.
Thanks. I suppose at this juncture passengers could be any Asians for any need the CCP felt was needed in the US, not necessarily sex workers
Methinks something is OUT of context regarding tugs.
Fully understand pilots are required in numerous situations. Suez canal, I assume it is a requirement. Having tugs standing by or made up (lashed by one or more lines to the larger vessel) may be normal / required going through the canal.
NOT buying the comment to Dyer’s article stating big ships must be towed.
Have been on Navy ships entering ports, departing ports and narrow passages probably a hundred times, including once, the Suez. Also, I have never “driven” a ship in any capacity. But I would be astonished if every big ship were towed through the Suez canal.
If I missed something Dyer stated, please let me know where it is.
If you watch the video – when the big ships’ propellers turn – it creates massive water movement that can do a lot of damage.
Absolutely ^^^. Ports / harbors have regulations regarding ships creating a wake, or wakes of specific sizes. As well as speed.
I bet JE Dyer will have something to add later. Her post was very informative.
I tried to find that old website that deals with incidents at sea – they had LOTS of Navy folks adding great comments. I may have to crank up my old laptop and hunt for the site.
Maybe Dyer will respond and clear that up. She’s good to respond to comments and questions. A nice lady.

Erm, I thought that was what gasoline taxes were for… as well as road and bridge tolls…
The Golden Gate Bridge toll was supposed to have ended DECADES ago… hmmm. it still exists, and, IIRC, it’s gone up and up and up…..
A bit like the ‘temporary’ income tax …
Or the “temporary” VAT.
Yes!!
On vacation in Fiji, I casually noted that a restaurant’s bill didn’t “foot” (add-up, in accounting-speak). I asked, and was told, “that’s the 6% VAT”.
“Oh,” I said, “that would be the one after that big emergency about five years ago….” “That’s right”, she replied, undoubtedly wondering how an obvious foreigner would know the history of a tax he didn’t know existed five minutes before.
“When it started, it was something like one-and-a-quarter percent, but it just keeps on going up every year or so….” Now she was really wondering.
My undergrad was in Economics. VAT taxes are ALWAYS enacted at some great national crisis as “temporary”; they ALWAYS start out at about 1% to 1.5%; and they ALWAYS end up stabilizing at about 22% within 30 years. If she had said the VAT was 10%, I’d have said the crisis was about 10 years back. If she had said the VAT was 2%, I’d have said it was enacted about a year ago. If she had said the VAT was 15%, I’d guess it was about 16 years old. Just like f’in’ clockwork.
Absolutely.
I blame Woodrow Wilson for making these type of taxes universal.
I’m only half joking.
Sounds like Bistromathics (cf HHGTTG) 😀
From the Hitchhikers’ Guide Project
http://www.hhgproject.org/entries/bistromathics.html
Bistromathics
The most powerful computational force known to parascience. A major step up from the Infinite Improbability Drive, Bistromathics is a way of understanding the behavior of numbers. Just as Einstein observed that space was not an absolute, but depended on the observer’s movement in time, so it was realized that numbers are not absolute, but depend on the observer’s movement in restaurants.
The first nonabsolute number is the number of people for whom the table is reserved. This will vary during the course of the first three telephone calls to the restaurant, and then bear no apparent relation to the number of people who actually turn up, or to the number of people who subsequently join them after the show/match/party/gig, or to the number of people who leave when they see who else has turned up.
The second nonabsolute number is the given time of arrival, which is now known to be one of those most bizarre of mathematical concepts, a recipriversexclusion, a number whose existence can only be defined as being anything other than itself. In other words, the given time or arrival is the one moment of time at which it is impossible that any member of the party will arrive. Recipriversexclusions now play a vital part in many branches of math, including statistics and accountancy and also form the basic equations used to engineer the Somebody Else’s Problem field.
The third and most mysterious piece of nonabsoluteness of all lies in the relationship between the number of items on the check, the cost of each item, the number of people at the table and what they are each prepared to pay for. (The number of people who have actually brought any money is only a subphenomenon in this field.)
Numbers written on restaurant checks within the confines of restaurants do not follow the same mathematical laws as numbers written on any other pieces of paper in any other parts of the Universe..

The Plan to Disarm Americans to Prevent Revolution Blog/Rule of Law

I get emails from friends in Britain who envy the US, saying if they had the right to have guns, they would be protecting their liberty. The Biden Administration has moved to force everyone to register guns. The next step is to just bust into your house and confiscate them. They are taking these steps in an incremental fashion to disarm America. Their designs are to impose the Great Reset, as we are watching in Europe with outrageous fines if you dare leave the country and 10 years in prison for lying about where you have been. Britain is no longer a free country.
The West is becoming authoritarian, unfortunately, precisely as our computer has been forecasting for years. This is why the government and its surrogates pretending to be real analysts are so intent upon preventing people from ever listening to Socrates. They hate the fact that our computer has been accurately projecting what they would do next simply based upon the economics and past incidents as to how people respond.

FTA:
“In the wake of two mass shootings in the U.S. in a single week, the White House said Friday that President Biden is prepared to issue executive orders to enact gun reform, circumventing the need for a divided Congress to pass legislation.”
And, guess what? Here’s the tie-in to Sen. Joe Manchin’s wife getting pushed for a job in the Biden administration:
FTA:
“Despite co-sponsoring the 2013 background check legislation, Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.VA.), already voiced opposition to the two House bills [the House bills just passed that further eviscerate the 2nd Amendment], instead pressing for the passage of his own version.”

I bet Telegram will not believe me. Will Telegram believe you? Consider writing Telegram at abuse@telegram.org and giving Telegram your opinion on whether I speak truth or post “illegal” messages. My channel is @LinWoodSpeaksTruth and my account is @LLinWood.
Don’t let the false accusations of a few drown out a voice of truth.
Get the attention of Telegram. I need you. We ALL need each other.

I would drop Telegram like a hot potato. I didn’t get it after the Parler fiasco. Once burned-out, twice shy. I’m done with anything but GAB.
Yup. Censor me once and I am gone. Don’t understand why folks still tolerate the likes of FB, TW…
Amen. Never trusted Telegram. Glad I never signed up.
And here is why. They moved operations to Dubai. A CABAL COUNTRY.
Unoccupied America is the last free frontier.
I’ve gotten to the point that if I can’t access stuff without having to sign up then I don’t need to see it.
Someone else will share if it’s that important.
Yup!
Exactly!
The latest Evergreen blockade theory is that it’s a #SilverSqueeze move intended to hold up silver shipments coming to refill the empty COMEX vaults.
Well, silver dropped pretty hard today so I’d have to say the market hasn’t heard of this…or has and discounts it.
Get a load of this:
Is it too doomfaggish to say..we’re doomed? The things that are being done are mind blowing and I don’t think if everybody in the country woke up one day and said “hey this F’d up and we don’t like it” will it be undone.
Some days I’m despairing, but if you look at history, these types of takeovers are doomed.
Some last longer than others. This is a global attempt to implement a totalitarian system. The scope is insane and that is why I think it will implode in a spectacular manner.
The devilish arrogance and madness will be their undoing.
IDK look at what havoc the entrenched Ozero people created during Trump’s 4 years. It could not be overcome on a large scale.
Now with the ever increasing propaganda as well as increasing the “migrant” population to support the numbers of US POC that will inevitably be used as the basis for the “need” of such diversity positions like this guy…I just don’t see it going away without a civil war.
.We ‘re only a couple months into this regime . I can’t think of any totalitarian gov that imploded because of anything but revolt
It will likely be ugly, but I think Grandma is right.
My mom lived through the Nazis, but she dodged a lot of falling debris – both literally and figuratively.
But..how does it implode without armed revolt? The Nazi regime didn’t fall by itself under it’s own insanity
Think Solidarity Movement.
It can be done.
Keep it brittle. Let it break where it breaks and when it does, flow through. Remember, every time we bend it only gets worse.
Well said!
I am not ruling out Biden walking us into a losing war.

2nd & 3rd false things about this meme is that President Trump did order the crowd to be cleared nor was the crowd for him to visit the church
To Trump haters it doesn’t matter what the reality is. The visual is enough and the fact that a man who used the image to confirm his bias now being tapped for such a position is disgusting. Not at all surprising though.
From GAB:
Yup. ROBBER JOE – the FAKE PRESIDENT, and KRAZY KAMALA, the FAKE VP, will try to take them.
PREPARE.
We always hear about the $$ that smugglers get and Tillis quoted 4k each. Why is it that nobody ever questions how these dirt poor people come up with thousands of dollars to come here ?
Sen. Tom Tillis? That Tom Tillis? You mean the one who voted to reject the objection about the Arizona [fraudulent] votes on January 6th, thus helping RobberJoe get “installed”?
GOP establishment pukes and RINOs just play games. They are all BULLSHIT.
Trump needs to start holding the GOP to task.
EXAMPLE:
Section 230.
Write out a simple statement that is VERY SPECIFIC as not only a position, but a PROMISE to VOTE on section 230 repeal, or a crystal-clear change. Make it so clear that any evasion becomes BETRAYAL OF THE BASE.
Then let us use it as a LITMUS TEST of GOP. If GOP pukes say they support it, a few will in FACT, and can introduce a bill that fits the TEST. Others can vote or not vote, and we will see who scatter and evades.
That way Trump can WITHDRAW SUPPORT, and we will ALL follow suit.

LOL.

From GAB:
Sentiment appreciated.
That said, every Western nation does it and was happy to do it from the 19th century onward. Illiteracy was a real problem.
State education is hardly an American exception.
Interestingly enough, one of the buildings I worked in in London was the site of a former ‘ragged school’ for poor children in that area. ‘Ragged school’ was an official term at the time for charitable organisations providing education. There was a plaque on the site where I worked commemorating its former use. The original building had long since been demolished.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ragged_school
At my ripe age I am reading, for the first time, the book I mentioned in my post as well as the Trvium that I wrote about previously.
Both books are challenging. I sometimes have to reread sentences and ponder their meaning.
I also have to have a dictionary handy to look up some of the vocabulary used.
Both books were written in the 30s-40s time period and updated as time went on.
It feels wonderful to be STRETCHED mentally.
It makes me very sad that both of these books would never be used in a government school today.
In the United States, illiteracy has climbed precipitously in the last few decades, despite government schools.
Yes, but, now, we all have less homogenous populations, most of which do not have English as a first language.
The same holds true in countries with immigrants who do not speak that nation’s first language. That will hold every pupil and student back. They will have less chance of advancing in life.
This is one of the best books I have ever read on the government school system here in the States.
I read it many years ago. An excellent book.

AMERICAN EXODUS
Don’t wait for the oligarchy to let you in. Just walk away.
When Machiavelli wrote, “in order to know Moses’ virtue it was necessary that the people of Israel be slaves in Egypt …,” he was pointing to the truth that knowing what one is up against is a powerful incentive for dealing with it intelligently. Genesis tells us that only in Moses’ time did the Egyptians make clear how harsh was the alternative to the Exodus by deciding to kill their longtime slaves’ baby boys.
Today, the oligarchy that controls American society’s commanding heights leaves those who are neither its members nor its clients little choice but to marshal their forces for their own exodus. The federal government, the governments of states and localities run by the Democratic Party, along with the major corporations, the educational establishment, and the news media set strict but movable boundaries about what they may or may not say—on pain of being cast out, isolated from society’s mainstream.
Using an ever-shifting variety of urgent excuses, which range from the coronavirus, to the threat of domestic terrorism, to catastrophic climate change, to the evils of racism, they issue edicts that they enforce through anti-democratic means—from social pressure and threats, to corporate censorship of digital platforms, to bureaucratic fiat. Nobody voted for this.…
https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/news/articles/american-exodus-angelo-codevilla-oligarchy
Excellent. This is a key component of how the oligarchs will eventually be defeated:
“The oligarchy’s power over American institutions public and private, however, does not change the fact that it rests on near universal voluntary compliance. The irrevocable alienation of and from at least half of Americans has canceled much of the oligarchs’ moral legitimacy and left them obliged to rule by further alienating and punishing—to rule a house that they divided against itself. Hence, the unprecedented power it gathered will prove less significant than the manner in which it did the gathering.”
A HOUSE DIVIDED AGAINST ITSELF CANNOT STAND, SAITH THE LORD.
You can take that to the bank. 🙏

Gotta cool off and drink some water before I go to do the edging and blowing.

Thank you for a great lead today.
What memories came back about Amaretto Disaronno.
51 years ago, I was engaged to a young man who went to the same music conservatory I attended. He was a brilliant percussionist. He proposed to me over a bottle of Amaretto.
Long story short, it didn’t work out and, ultimately, we broke up. He went on to marry another young woman and had a wonderful career that was tragically cut short by a freak accident.
But I remember how much in love we were back 51 years ago.
Perfect!
How very romantic. Thank you for sharing that part of your life.

Dear Q-Tree Family
Please pray for my parents, Elaine & Bill. They are going from a local ER to the main Detroit hospital ER because Mom needs an MRI for a mini-stroke that just happened this evening. My parents are in their early 80’s & dad is doing their driving today, unlike their usual arrangement. Mom’s on baby aspirin & her symptoms of slurring of speech & muscular weakness have disappeared, thankfully. Currently the doctors project perhaps a 10% chance of a more major stroke in the next 2 weeks. If the MRI shows a lesser risk, under 2% anticipated, then they should be released to come home this evening.
Thanks for your prayers for my family–God Bless!
Well, she gets to stick her head into a BIG, LOUD magnet for who knows how long.
People with claustrophobia will be sedated for that one.
Hope she is in the Low Risk zone and has no further issues.
Wow, you’re right. I’ve been in the room when Josiah’s had some MRI’s & even had one myself–very loud. Unfortunately my mom is pretty claustro ever since she got stuck in my grandparents’ senior apartment utility room. She was in there & a broom or mop fell & jammed the door shut from the other side. She was stuck for hours & near panicking. Ever since she’s been pretty claustro & even tries to avoid elevators.
I appreciate your insights & kind thoughts & am always glad to see a Steve reply!
Ongoing prayers Valerie. Best wishes for Mom’s full recovery, your father and your entire family.
Thanks KBK we really appreciate that! God Bless
We will pray as a family shortly for your family as times likes these are hard on the entire family and then continue to remember in our ongoing prayers
Thank you so much MM. Josiah was nearby when I took the call from my dad on speaker phone. He got so distressed that he couldn’t speak, stopped eating his dinner, & only joined in our prayer from afar. He’s a sensitive soul & is having a hard time processing this situation.
Sending healing energy to your mother and good thoughts to all of you.
Thank you so much CV. Blessings!
Prayers going up.
Thanks so much Grandma! God bless you & yours…& thanks for another great post!!!
Thank you. ❤
Angels surrounding your family – by the power of the Holy Spirit
Jesus will be with her when she is tested – I asked.
Peace be with all of you – Comfort is coming!!!
Amen Duchess. My parents will continue to be lights shining in the darkness & their present mini-mission field just got re-extended to that Detroit hospital. My dad was in-patient there some months back & they were so overcrowded he was literally on a gurney all night in the end of a hallway instead of in a room!
That reminded me of when Josiah had his liver transplant & we kept waiting for a bed to open up in the children’s hospital in his post-op phase. It took several days but he finally got a room in the new Mott hospital rather than the old, boring adult side (where he was stuck again this summer w/ transplant rejection). The ER was being used to house in-patients from the pediatric side so being in an actual room is a bigger blessing than some might realize!
Remember, Val – after the trial comes the blessing – the greater the trial – the greater the blessing – God knows what your family has endured – and He will shine the light on a future all will be happy to see – every time Josiah ran into a ‘block’ – God made a way – so no matter what happens –
Romans 8:28
“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.”
King James Version (KJV)
Comfort Angels right by your side, Val!!!
Thanks for these comforting, encouraging, godly, & scriptural thoughts. Much appreciated! God Bless YOU Duchess!
Thanks, Val! God loves you and so do I!!!
<3 blush emoji <3
Thanks Duchess
Prompt attention is key. I pray they may be sustained through these difficulties and that she is blessed with healing.
Thanks so much CT. We watch, wait, & pray.
Early treatment and devoted care will help. Prayers and luck to your family.
Yes thanks so much Gil. I was remembering when my mom was w/ me in the ER when my oldest son had a displaced forearm break, she was a retired RN. Nathaniel was in a lot of pain & she reminded me that “pain management” was an appropriate part of treatment so they finally got him something stronger than tylenol before we took an ambulance to the ER of a larger hospital, U of M again (all my sons have had surgeries there). Because Mom was with us she followed the ambulance in a vehicle & I was able to ride w/ yet another son in the ambulance (Josiah & I rode the ambulance about 200 miles back to Ann Arbor when he had serious RSV just after coming home from the hospital for the first time following his 1st open-heart surgery). Her bringing a vehicle, her nursing background, & her companionship really helped us during a pretty crazy night.
Dad chose to drive them in their own car tonight, though they were offered an ambulance ride. I was encouraging him in his advocacy for mom to try to ensure that she gets the appropriate care she needs sooner rather than later.
My experience in ER’s over the years, with All the men in my family at one time or another, has shown a minimum of 4-5 hours of time to be there no matter how serious the situation.
When my middle son, Brandon (Josiah’s twin), chopped the tip of his finger off in a weight bench accident it was like pulling teeth to get anyone to deal directly with us & I was frantic about the timeframe for we’d brought along that fingertip in a baggie w/ ice cubes in hopes of preserving it sufficiently to allow its reattachment. No such luck so he got a skin graft from one of his thighs later & we jokingly refer to that finger as his “butt-finger” for fun. He’s the “Tool-Man” that Grandma referenced in today’s post 🙂
Lol on the finger. Rsv is no joke. Mine had it and almost had to be airlifted to children’s hospital, but luckily the medication they gave after consult with pulmonary was a heavily monitored 2nd dose of something and it worked.
ERs are slow, never had a quick experience.
Josiah was hospitalized twice in his 1st year w/ RSV. On that cross-state ambulance ride the EMTs were on the phone w/ Life-flight regularly about whether they needed to air-lift him or not. Travelling in practically blizzard conditions on my 1st ever ambulance experience was pretty surreal.
Dad touched based briefly today, 3 hours in the 1st ER & 8 hours in the 2nd one–yikes! Mom’s doing well but they kept her overnight so she’ll come home today or tomorrow likely.
I hope mom recovers fast.
Thanks, Gil. Me too!
I pray the Lord will give the doctors wisdom, insight, inspiration and send his angels to surround and protect them. May each and everyone who cares for her is respectful, kind and compassionate.
Thanks GA/FL those are lovely prayers & much appreciated!
Please keep us posted!
Will do, no updates as of 9pm.
Sending positive thoughts your way.
Thanks Sadie
Hugs and prayers! 💖 🙏
Thanks much Wolf!
I asked God to watch over your parents and to help your Dad with the driving. And for you to be blessed with their presence for many more years.
Thanks so much Aubergine. I’ve been praying for years that they would both live to see great-grandkids from all of their kids’ clans. So far they have no GGk’s.
Appreciate these prayers–Blessings!
Prayers going your way Valerie.
Thanks for these prayers, Chris. God Bless!
I pray that all goes well for your Mom’s MRI, Valerie…and that she has no more strokes.

Hugs for you, because I know how rough it is when parents take ill.

Absolutely definite COVID vaccine death! PROBABLY Moderna or Pfizer, since it was specified as her “first shot”, and J+J has only ONE shot.
https://www.theepochtimes.com/mkt_breakingnews/68-year-old-woman-dies-after-receiving-covid-19-vaccine-family_3750479.html
https://www.cjonline.com/story/news/coronavirus/2021/03/25/kansas-health-officials-investigate-family-claim-effingham-woman-death-reaction-covid-vaccine/6994922002/
What would be a good response to anyone who says my family member had no problems so why shouldnt I?
Something really generically succinct.
I’m allergic to bees, but my dad isn’t, so why should I carry an epi-pen?
My family member ate raw chicken and didn’t get sick, so I can, too?
The point being, just because it doesn’t happen to someone else, doesn’t mean it won’t happen to you.
But truthfully, you can’t stop most of these people from taking the vaccine, no matter what you say. It’s sad, but a lot of people are going to die, not just now, but later.
I agree. Its like a lemming over the cliff, but I dont want to confront, just prod thinking.
People arent listening though. They just want to assume its a ticket to freedom.
“Familial risk increases your risk somewhat, but in the same way, familial non-risk only reduces your risk somewhat.”
An excellent example of STRONG familial risk is one of the vaccine deaths from J+J, where apparently there was a bad family history with vaccines.
https://healthimpactnews.com/2021/people-now-dying-following-the-experimental-johnson-and-johnson-covid-injections/
If a lot of people in your family have problems with vaccines, then yes, it’s a problem.
But here is a counter-example with me. I almost never have problems with vaccines, nor with stings, bites, foods or drugs. Generally, I don’t have excessive allergic responses, nor do any family members. THAT is a vaccine-favorable family history.
But note that I had a problem with the disease itself. Bad reactions to COVID-19 itself are thought to be of an inflammatory nature. Thus, I *STILL* need to be careful, DESPITE a good vaccine family history.
Ok. Yes you had a really hard time. I dont trust it bc its still unknown what all long-term effects will be. At this rate they will force us, going house to house or just to get food.
Ann Coulter redeems herself on Taki Mag (now added to sidebar blogroll, BTW)!
IDIOCRACY
Asian Women Are Too Damn Hot!
Ann Coulter
March 25, 2021
The graphic is very interesting. I bet a lot of thought went into the positioning of the women and so on.
The White gal has a very arched eyebrow. It makes her look arrogant?
The Muslim woman is in PINK.
THE Asian woman has lily white skin.
The Black woman is larger than the others.
So much to ponder.
Yeah, I didn’t even want to go there in terms of interpreting it, but I wanted to capture the graphic and let people ponder. It’s very interesting, isn’t it? It was Ann Coulter, so I figured “whatever – let’s go with it!’ 😀
I personally think the whole thing is a bit NUTS. As a connoisseur of the beauty of all types of women, I find identity politics just laughable and wrong.
Identity politics prevents us from talking about the very interesting psychology underneath a lot of what is going on now. It just creates so much noise, the nuance of signal is lost. To some extent that’s what even the good guys want.
Here is a nugget that has largely escaped notice, although I suspect that HOTEPS are wise to it (not being on Twitter, I don’t get to follow them any more). Much of the racial agenda of the CIA in America that looks like it’s designed to break down racist attitudes in whites is not actually about changing white psychology – it’s about changing BLACK psychology. That gets really complicated, and delicate, and I’d rather see it succeed than just “out it all” for personal clout points, but watch for it, and you’ll see. It’s working, too. This point will help certain people “out there” on our side, as well as “the other side” which is weirdly grappling with race in a completely different way (mainly needing to depoliticize it).
Now, here is something that’s really interesting, and I’m just going to dump it here, since I’ve never found a better place to dump it. It’s psychology that nobody talks about, but it is behind a lot of what I believe the “better-intentioned” parts of the other side are TRYING to do (and not always doing well, frankly, because of the heavy satanic components from their dark side compatriots).
There was a point where I spent a lot of time overseas. Something very interesting happened. It’s DEEP human psychology.
The people around me – none of whom were “American” – all started to look “American” to me. They became “normal” and Americans started looking “different”. To better describe “normal”, it’s where individual features become telling and discriminating, and the “general look of the people vanishes”.
It was absolutely fascinating. It’s actually a bit shocking. I’m not sure if this happens to everybody, but I suspect it does. I think in my case it was striking and conscious because I have a bit too much low-level process introspection (“debug mode always on”). But when I came back, it went away. The same individuals who looked “normal” became “other” again, when I saw them in photos, videos or livestreams.
A certain amount of “global normalization of perception” is going to happen, and frankly I think most of us are guessing what that is going to be. Technology will make it unavoidable. But (IMO) neither the technology nor how we use it has to be dehumanizing. But it IS risky.
And that reminds me – I have an article about transhumanism and our response to it, that I need to work on! 😉
They are definitely trying to move us toward a Star Trek mode of behavior and thinking.
And, as you say, that has its positives regarding how we treat and view others.
It was quite intriguing to think about being with a green or blue person. 😄

This is just horrible. The politicians won’t be able to keep up the pretense of safe and effective jabs much longer.
PT must get out ahead of this. He cannot continue the same line.
Yup – but I would not rush it. It’s a mess, but it’s a complicated mess.
I think we ALL have to get out ahead of it, in part by ALL of us pulling our heads out of the sand and doing a “great awakening” on the real dangers of vaccines, versus the alternative dangers of natural immunity.
We have to admit to ourselves that our understanding of vaccines is still very incomplete.
Vaccines are a sub-disease alternative to disease. They are not strictly safe. They are not perfectly effective, except for SOME diseases which are “broad side of a barn” amenable to vaccination as a strategy (smallpox and rabies being two different examples).
Therefore, vaccines cannot be required. There is an optimal number of healthy people who are unlikely to die or be permanently injured by them, who can and perhaps should get them, and an optimum number of selected people who should NOT get them, and NOBODY should be forced to be in either group, IMO – especially when our knowledge of who should and should not get them is inadequate.
Our KNOWLEDGE at this time is not really sufficient to find the optima. And we will not FIND those optima unless we’re HONEST.
BUT I WILL SAY THIS MUCH……
Mass distribution of HCQ might well have given us better results with fewer deaths.
The money angle is simply disgusting, too.
This is so sad – people need to be more discerning with respect to these vaccines!

The Fiancee just wandered in, and oh, Lordie!
Mind you, this is a person who always complains about my cooking “I’ll have the less spicy bits” or “is there something mild?” or “can you make my side plain?” I went through the kitchen where she was preparing little toasts for the oven — rustic bread, butter, garlic, and a little parmesan to garnish — and she was putting about 3/4 t of granulated garlic on each slice. I asked her if she was sure about that and that I’d never serve her that much, and she shrugged away my concerns. She cooked ’em; and she ate ’em….and she came in to tell me her plans for tomorrow and I could smell the garlic fumes from five feet away.
Fortunately, it’s not really a bad smell, ’cause I know it doesn’t wash off. And it is healthy. And I guarantee we’re safe from vampires tonight. But I am surprised.
I’m going to have to ignore her more than I already do when she wants “the less spicy bits”.
Lol. I very effectively trained my husband to like things he thought he hated by simply not telling him he was eating them. 😄
Veggies are very easy to disguise in cooking. Spices not so much.
The joy of living in California….
Homeowner’s insurance, annually — $1,228.16
Homeowner’s EARTHQUAKE insurance, annually — $1,421.00
So, essentially, the chance of my house being flattened by an earthquake is about 7/6 the chance if it burning up in a fire. Nice.
My ins went up $200 dt to rebuilding costs they say. Cant get any other insurance bc we live near an undeveloped hill.
Just sayin’. 😉
