This is a compelling note from an old hand at the game of modern life, and how best to play the hand that has been dealt to our modern young men, who survey the world in which they find themselves, and wonder where to start, what it is about...

Can one really put an old head on young shoulders?

No, they must make their way as best they may like everyone else, but perhaps they may start out slightly better informed than the State education establishments would leave them.

Not everyone will agree with all of this, but it strikes me as a genuine attempt to put forward a few home truths that will likely have eluded them so far...

It won't be right for everyone, but it could be valuable for some, perhaps for many.

See what you

Lots of dubious "content" on social media and elsewhere re the phenomenon known as 3I/Atlas, mostly speculation, and perhaps mostly excitable in nature, and definitely influenced by a huge dollop of hype for purposes that remain obscure.

So who better to disperse this hype than the very unexcitable but hugely knowledgeable Ken Walker?

This site doesn't do party politics, but that doesn't mean that we don't do politics. After all, the fact that many people take no interest politics doesn't prevent the politicians from poking their noses into the people's affairs. Especially now that CBDC-linked Gov Ids are are believed to be feasible, they can poke right the way down to the individual citizen and what he had for Sunday dinner.

"You had an extra slice of toast for breakfast on Satiurday so to keep the world cool your bread ration is now halved for next week and your price per British standard loaf will be increased by one third"

Note that they don't have to get the actual facts right - it's sufficient to make sure that there isn't any effective way to challenge their facts. In fact it's probably better to get them wrong because then the individual will have no choice but to give up the unequal struggle for correctness and just submit to whatever "they" impose. Life is too short

We invented the steam engine (so we are told) and from that, Steam Rollers (now more prosaically called "road rollers") and of course, railways.

Of course, "Health and Safety" wasn't such an industry in those days, so people had a comparatively free hand to get themselves into all sorts of scrapes at their own risk, without fear of some busybody with a clipboard coming round to tell you what you couldn't do and quite possibly slapping you with a fine.

But isn't the US showing the way with MAGA? 

Could we not do something similar here in the UK?

(This is not financial advice)

We might have to tear up a few rule books, but those have been proliferating for so long that we have become scared to move lest we offend some unelected and unimagined

The Knights Templar, a religious order of centuries past (bearing in mind that taught history may have been falsified, so work with us here). Perhaps all were not destroyed, but some survived to bring us "the Great Awakening" of today.

Far out? These days I'm beginning to acclimatise to "far out" notions...

There is a long preamble to this film, which in the interests of your time, is omitted from the video as shown below. It is however included in the linked video on Rumble (or you can restart the video below from time zero), but it adds over an hour to the running time and is probably of little interest unless you have been eagerly following Charlie Freak and his friends.

Charlie Freak is the man who brought out the original video of Trump's (pre-Covid) "Capitulation Tour" (watch a slightly shorter version of that

There are plenty of political reasons why we might not want a digital id, or CBDC (since they will inevitably be linked).

But there are technical reasons, as well as the  government's track record on security issues.

Not to mention the myriad 'industry' snouts (not to mention fly-by-nights) that may already be homing in on this latest government feeding trough, some of whom are unlikely to have security issues at the forefront of their priorities...

There's no shortage of pundits to tell us what we ought to believe, but to get a reasonably complete picture is a rarity.

Here's a pundit who may be unfamiliar to most, and is for sure unconventional - yet her round-up of today's world strikes me as perhaps one of the most perceptive as well as thought-provoking.

This is a brief canter through the 'Q' posts, which may delight conspiracy theorists and turn off those who don't suffer from that affliction in equal measure.

It's only a few days old (!) but already feels a bit "last year"...   it isn't.

Israel indicates the end game - but pay attention, I don't think we are quite there yet... there is still unsettled business to be concluded on various fronts, notably Ukraine and Israel (two sides of the same coin?) but also Europe China and the rest of the world.

There are two ways to judge Trump's actions - at face value (they don't exactly work together on this metric) and as pointing up those miscreants that he wants investigated (makes more sense and keeps everybody confused).

Happy hunting.

Well, along with France (and interloper Italy in 5th) we have secured the top 13 places, add in Sweden to make that the top 15!

Not sure that this is a cause for celebration, since this is an assessment of Europe's "most dangerous cities" according to Numbeo’s Crime Index, well ahead of Odessa and (presumably) every other Ukrainian city. Hmmm...

It's not "scientific" in so far as it is based upon "citizens' perceptions". So yes, there's scope for imprecision in attempting to measure such a concept across different countries languages populations and their differing customary expectations. 

Bradford Coventry and Birmingham head the chart in the "very high crime" range along with Marseille, Grenobe, Naples, Montpelier and Liège. 

Paris Lyon Nice Manchester and London not far behind.

Eastern Europe by contrast looks pretty content, although it's

Whilst there is no shortage of taking heads to pontificate on the Trump Peace in the Middle East, Cyntha Koeter of Fall of the Cabal is perhaps an inspired spirit who has known life's "difficulties" from an early age, difficulties that caused her to collaborate with the late Janet Ossebard to create the "Fall of the Cabal" documentaries (and the Sequel) that exposed the story of the Cabal.

This is her assessment of the Trump Peace in the Middle East.

"It’s not indecision; it’s structured hesitation"

My readers may already be primed to accept this concept - after all, I've written a fair few articles where I have noted that "it's OK to be undecided".

Martin Geddes takes it to a more academic level with the concept of "plausible neutrality", and frankly, with all the stuff with which we are assaulted in the media these days, it's an essential concept both to grasp and to respect.

One might call it hesitation with a purpose. Once seen, remembered for when it may require more objective evaluation in the light of new information.

"In fifth-generation warfare, this becomes a survival tactic" - Quite so.

There is more. See how many points you can score as already

In the spirit of boldness, who will dare to venture where others fear to tread?

Not in the material universe of earth, air, fire, water, animal, vegetable, mineral, flesh and blood, light and dark, sun moon planets and the mysteries of the physical universe...
... but in the spiritual universe of knowledge, truth, love, trust, promises, encouragement, transparency, freedom, sovereignty... and mysticism, fear, deceit, betrayal, secrecy, psychological imprisonment, threats and slavery...   

Well, nowadays we all have little choice - the domain of the physical universe which we inhabit has perhaps long been thought to be infinite, and we are learning that the domain of the spirit is much more extensive than perhaps we realised in our

When we have checked out the world's religions and remained unconvinced, when we have tried every political party but failed to find any that we could trust, when we have reviewed all our personal acquaintances and decided that none will offer us what we want, and when the supply of gurus in our location falls similarly short...

Perhaps, just perhaps, we have been looking in the wrong place all along?

But where else is there left to look?

Well, it's a few days ago now, but Trump's speech at the UN in New York was ... Trumpian. No holds barred, no concessions to the hair-trigger sensibilities of the politicariat, no oblique manoeuvring delicately around the insanity that dares not permit questioning, just the plain truth spoken bluntly, defying anybody that would somehow still contrive to mistake his meaning.

"The primary effect of these brutal green energy policies has not been to help the environment, but to redistribute manufacturing and industrial activity from developed countries that follow the insane rules that are put down, to polluting countries that break the rules and are making a fortune. They’re making a fortune"

Quite so.

And Eugyppius is the practised reporter who well understands the game, having been schooled by the experts in German politics.

It's a long time (unless you are our Judicial System) since we heard from my Dazolam, but somehow she still sees to be lost amid the long grasses much favoured by Obfu Scation and Avo Idance and their like, who perhaps cannot be removed on account of possible breaches of their inalienable human rights and must thus be granted Indefinite Leave to Remain regardless of their obvious incompatibility with modern British Values (whatever they may now be).

Some believe that in order to avoid the ever-growing possibility - nay likelihood - of violence, even civil war, breaking out between competing factions within the new glorious diversity of Modern UK (MUK), moves must now be put in hand to deal with the pathetic remnants of population who still support the outmoded so-called "British values", such as "fair play" "tolerance", "freedom of speech" "freedom of association" even "freedom to protest"(!), and waste their time in absurd traditional
