Tue [17 till close of play]

Evening all.

27.  IYE quotes a lady on a coinky-dink

“Here it is in one post to make it easy to share:

Does anyone remember this about Letitia James....?

In 2001, the media admitted that they were shocked when she lost her election for Brooklyn Councilmember to James Davis because she was heavily funded, backed and supported by the Democrat party. Immediately after the loss, the investigations and smear campaigns against James Davis began in the media and to the public.

On July 23rd 2003, James Davis was murdered at City Hall. After the murder of James Davis, Eric Adams,who was slated to run, decided not to. The primary candidate was supposed to be Geoffrey Davis until he too was smeared in the media and then heavily-funded Letitia James won the seat. What a coinky dink!”

26.  This is part five

As more and more songs of this nature are run in this themed mini-series, ending Thursday, it becomes more and more difficult to define the genre … Dearieme called it “daft”, I’d call it “crackers”, across jazz, blues, pop, whatever, but there are some songs I’m not sure do fit in. 

For example, the Tuba Skinny version of Blues My Naughty was hardly crackers, hardly manic, nor really are Flanders and Swann, nor Tom Learer, much as I like them … clever, very clever yes. Plus age does come into it … they really needed to be vaguely around our age in the 70s.

Bad Manners played ska but they could also do pop, in a loony way:

Little Millie’s original

First. Second. Third. Fourth. Tomorrow part six.

25.  Cyber woes

As you’ve noticed, DAD’s been having NOWP woes today and if it seems I’m hardly helping … there are things though I don’t know is the cyber situation at that end … device, other things acting on the system, things WP at this end shuts out for security reasons … there are any number of possible reasons, inc. trigger words … even Micron and France, perhaps the EU itself.

WP itself is one of the least user friendly platforms now in free website form, which is why I’ve kept to using it this way.  With the old, private WP, it was better but then it too went down with this “blocks” rubbish. I can’t even set security levels with this one, my second earliest site by the way, still going.

My feeling … and that’s all it is … is that a change of IP address would help, also change of moniker and lastly euphemising language … there’s not a lot DAD can do about links though. It’s interesting that two of our French contingent have more issues … yet Ivan seems not to … with him, being a techie means he can vary IPs, do different snazzy things to get around it, plus he’s hardly provocative, Ivan.

If it does not improve, then I may have to get the Jstack going again … it’s a pain even for me to get into, to post things.  Watching closely, all right?

24.  Good question

23.  It’s the cynical way it’s done now

… when there was plenty of time earlier … that cynicism is offputting:

22.  There seems to be a bit of this around just now

… and I’m wondering why hubbies?

21.  The conundrum

19.  DAD at NOWP

a)  European Union commissioner designate for climate action Wopke Hoekstra has proposed taxing fossil fuels on a global basis and vowed to phase out EU fossil fuel subsidies in a hearing with the climate committee in the EU parliament in Strasbourg.

During the hearing of the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety (ENVI) held on 2 October, Hoekstra stressed the importance of phasing out fossil fuels, as well as their subsidies.

n14. Towards the end of that interview TC talks about genetically modified humans. This substack shows how it can be done thru the "poojabs". Worth a squint, imho.
