New Covid Variants causing concern

 
It occurred to me today that we are getting towards the end of summer, so logically will start thinking of autumn and winter, days getting shorter and so on…but not least because of the predictably timed rash of news stories about exciting new Covid variants.

Today I have seen news items about variant Pi, variant BA.6 and variant Eris ( who was apparently the ancient Greek goddess of discord and chaos) and also stories about how we must all start wearing masks again and aren’t lockdowns a jolly good idea. It shows the utter contempt that the media, sinister government advisors and pharmaceutical companies have for the public that they have the brass neck to start wheeling this old shit out again for yet another year. I really hope there are riots if anyone tries to impose all this crap again. Even the dullest bulbs I know wouldn’t go along with it at this point (unless a bit of furlough was thrown in). What an utterly cretinous bag of old wank.

Here we go again.

There’s a new strain of Covid ( what, another one?) and already the Press are speculating, well more like sounding as if it’s a done deal, about a return to mask wearing and possible lock downs to ” protect the NHS”, you know.

Interestingly, there’s also a lot of comments, in various publications, that lock downs and masks DID prevent the spread of Covid.

That’s not what you were saying early, when enquiries and committees started looking into the Governments response to the pandemic. Do you really think we have so little ability to think rationally?

Also, if you want to “protect the NHS”, stop spaffing money on foreign aid, legal aid for illegals, accommodation for the same that turns out to be unsuitable, vast sums of money to Rwanda and France, and spend it on the NHS – and NOT more managers/diversity officers, either.

While you’re at it, maybe cull the deadwood in the HoC and HoL, too!

Emotional songs and procrastination

 
Emotional Songs

Am currently sitting on the patio of my garden drinking a beer and taking in the wonderful views of the Lake District – perhaps for the final time before emigrating to Denmark.

Am also listening to one of the most emotional songs I have ever heard – Johnny Cash and his very final song before passing away – “Hurt”

When you watch the YT video and listen to the music you will realise that despite his early success and riches, he ends up with nothing – no friends, no money, no acclaim, nothing. And it made me realise that despite how we lead our lives – rich or poor – the end result will always be the same, death!

I think Cash’s point in this song is that you really need to make the most of every single day of your life. Even when you’re a success it will eventually turn to shit some day and you’re left with nothing but memories.

When you’re young you probably don’t give a shit about such wisdom, and rightly so I guess. But the more I listen to Cash’s song the more I realise that time is running out and that things that you’ve always put off for another day need to be realised before you end up looking back regretting on what could have been.

“Hurt” is probably the most depressing/uplifting song I have ever heard, even to the point of me shedding a few tears at how his life came to nothing when he finally died in September 2003.

Music is a great motivator and I think after listening to this it has given me the incentive to do those things that I have always put on the back burner for one reason or another. And in this context the move to Denmark will almost certainly happen because if I don’t I will regret it when I look back in 20 odd years time.

I can relate to this oh so very well Techno, the song Are you reeling in the years by Steely Dan says it for me sir. C.A.

Amazon Alexa accused of sexism

 
An Amazon “Prime” cunting for “academic” Dr Joanne Rodda, who has a considerably valuable and hard-earned doctorate in Psychiatry. Because of her passing “interest” in A.I., as a Doctor she felt that she was qualified enough to alert those woke nobjockey’s at Al-Beeba that the Alexa A.I. “had sexism embedded in it”. I have always been a fan of technology, science and development in artificial intelligence, but I would never claim to be able to advise those twats at Al-Beeba about it. If I had a doctorate in Neuroscience I would not presume to be able to advise people on, say, Archeology just because I am a fan of the first three Indiana Jones films.

Why is it being blamed as a sexist? Because when asked by Echo device users for the “result of the England vs. Australia football match” the Alexa A.I. responded that there was “no such match”. Putting aside the argument that some football fans may claim that women’s football isn’t real football anyway (lol!), Alexa is not sentient and so it should not be blamed as a human being would be. Amazon, not wishing to appear to have a lack of feminist values within it’s A.I. R&D dept., quickly fixed the error ASAP. After being fixed Dr Rodda decided to test Alexa again by asking it who Arsenal football team are playing in October. She said it replied with information about the men’s team but couldn’t give any information when asking specifically about the women’s team.

Yeah love, get over it and go back to your day job – with enough time Alexa’s algorhythms will improve and then the erstwhile Dr Rodda, Psychiatrist extraordinaire, can sleep at night soundly. What a cunt!

The Battle of Bernstein’s Nose

 
So our dear old friend Cultural Appropriation has reared – in this case- its ugly nose over the parapet. Jewish cultural and gay icon Leonard Bernstein (music for West Side Story etc etc) is being portrayed in a film by an actor with a false nose hence Woke Outcry. Now they do have a point in a way. Why not cast a thesp with a genuine big hooter? Gerard Depadieu, Geoff Goldblum (and last time I checked was still identifying as Jewish), Owen Wilson et al and not a rhinoplasty between them.

Now it looks like Bradley Cooper has bought the rights to one of the late Sir Larry Oliver’s old conks. Has to be said that that old thesp only felt comfortable when sheltering behind a mound of nose putty. Cooper is being supported by Lenny Bernstein’s own family who say they have no objections to such a portrayal (or indeed the monetisation coming their way). No the issue here is not that Cooper plus conk is demeaning the Jewish Race, it is that the proboscis looks ridiculous and is an example of just how crap Hollywood prosthesis have become.

Fair play Bernstein as a younger man looked more Sean Connery than The Penguin in Batman.

Tom Binns

 
A comedian of some description who’s main claim to fame was a brief appearance on the classic sitcom, The IT Crowd.

Anyway, this cunt has been spared a jail sentence despite downloading over 30,000 images of CP in 2020. Over 500 of those pictures were Class A and B, the most serious, most graphic and most disturbing.

Binns posted a comment on his website in mitigation “Over two years ago, while under the influence of an overdose of prescription drugs for ADHD, which induced obsessive-compulsive disorder, I downloaded and deleted a very large amount of adult pornography over a short period of time.

“Within those downloads, it appears there was some child pornography which I had not sought out nor wanted.

“I have no sexual interest in children. I have taken and passed a polygraph stating I have no sexual interest in children.”

The judge said despite the seriousness of the crime, Binns did not appear to be a threat to the public or children. Therefore he was given a suspended sentence and placed on the SOR for at least 10 years.

How the fuck can he say “I have no sexual interest in children” or “it appears there was some child pornography which I had not sought out nor wanted.” when he has downloaded 35,000 such images!!!!

Moreover, downloading CP is not as easy as it was some 20 odd years ago. These days you need a VPN, Tor and a deep dive in the Dark Web to find that kind of shite. And even more surprising is that to download that amount often means having to pay for it on some dodgy website.

Perhaps if he had downloaded 10 CP instead of 30k+ I could possibly believe him. But this verdict sets a dangerous precedent – just claim you have ADHD and blag a polygraph and you’re sorted!

Oh, and I forgot to add that this kind of verdict doesn’t do anything to protect those poor children who suffered the sexual abuses this creep (and many others) get their kicks from. Neither does it act as a deterrent from groomers who get paid shedloads for the abduction, “education” and ultimately the sexual abuse/rape/torture of children!
