Blatant discrimination. Why aren’t they also asking if their mother is male or female? Shocking! What times we live in!

Regrets indeed. They can’t apply to have their heating bill paid by the taxpayers now if not working from home. Big mistake. Boohoo.
No Alison, the best thing you can do is ignore them both. Stop giving them the oxygen of publicity.
The vaxx injured story was truly awful. But I don’t understand why they always start with ‘but I had no idea it wasn’t fully tested’ / ‘everyone said it was safe’. Surely, you must be aware by a certain point in your life that vaccines generally require lengthy trials. Even if you weren’t aware of issues with the swine flu vaccine ten odd years ago, surely you would have heard of thalidomide, which (while not a vaccine) was rolled out without any testing?!
And why is no one asking why AstraZeneca has basically been withdrawn from the market?
Peter Hitchens described himself as being in mental exile and I am starting to think that is where I am too.
I’m glad that I declined the offer in March ’21, given the outcome, with all the real risks crawling out of the woodwork. A lot of people have been conned into taking risks of minimum real benefit, it seems to me. In short, it was more like an election campaign, and product marketing, than anything else.
I can’t quite remember what the timeline for this was, but I can remember hearing about these’ vaccines’ being developed and that they should be ready for January – I think it would have been September(ish) time – and thinking “sh*t, that seems ridiculously quick, that can’t be right”. The first thing I did was do some digging into the length of a normal development cycle for a vaccine. At that time that information was easily obtained from simple Google searches, the answer generally being 6-10 years minimum. A month or later and the same search produced completely different results. No longer was it easy to find this information, it had been obfuscated. It was probably the first clear, measurable, evidence of organised censorship/propaganda that I was aware of.
Why anyone thought that a vaccine developed, tested and rolled out in a matter of 6 months, could possibly be safe is beyond me. Throw into the mix that the ‘vaccine’ wasn’t a vaccine at all, but gene therapy that used novel technology that had never before passed human clinical trials, and you’ve got to be bordering on the unhinged to even consider it if you weren’t in a high risk group. But they all did. They not only considered it, they all went ahead and had it shoved in their arms. Then did it again. And again. And again. And… And… Absolute insanity.
…probably all of us were already disbelieving and sceptical by this stage?….
Having already studied the rubbish PCR, the obviously iffy ‘death within 28 days’ …the debacle of deaths ‘with/of’…..
the pandemic supposedly killing everyone, yet no one I knew was dying or even poorly…..the information starting to come through of the low CFR/IFR…
crazy ‘science’ about masks, distances, asymptomatic spread!!!
By the time it got to vaccines I just couldn’t trust or believe a word they said…..!!
I don’t believe the corpses are piling up in China.
That’s the story they sold us here but eventually the actual mortality figures didn’t back that up.
Sloppy sensationalist “journalism”.
Every Western report on China has only one real purpose and needs to be seen in that light: regime change.
Highly recommend this newly released 25min documentary from New Zealand, Silent No More, highlighting the plight of the Covid jab injured and giving a face and name to some of the people killed by this bioweapon. I think people should redirect their hatred away from certain irrelevant public figures and towards vile entities, personally responsible for causing maximum damage and who have blood on their hands, such as Ardern, for instance. That seems like a more appropriate focus of one’s negativity and anger in my book.

Double up, perhaps? Or maybe there is a lot of guesstimation in working out how much biomass carbon there is.
Study co-author Yadvinder Malhi, of Oxford University, added: “This research shows how new approaches can yield surprises in even well-studied forests, with profound consequences for our understanding of forests and their role in tackling climate change that apply across the UK and beyond.”
“forests and their role in tackling climate change”
And that’s enough for me. Not worth reading because it’s just nonsense.
Wow…another one really changing their tune…as though they have just found out! My gob has truly been smacked!
Anyone who has watched any clips from US TV over the last three years will have seen Dr Leanna Wen, waxing lyrical about how rubbish natural immunity is, how we need masks, lockdowns, vaccines and more of the same…
So it comes as a bit of a surprise to find she’s backing natural immunity now….!
(I suppose as a doctor she didn’t know about it before!)
How I despise these hypocrites!

I despair, what happened to the real world I used to know? It feels like it was magic’ed away over the last 3 years while no one was looking and we all woke up in scary alternate universe that is unrecognisable, this must be what insanity feels like!
Oh the bitter hypocrisy as the tabloids and MPs and outraged citizens gnash their teeth and gnaw their knuckles with rage. Not about the damage of the vaccines, nor the British Heart Foundation wilfully ignoring the truth, no, they all get in a tizzy because Jeremy Clarkson expresses his dislike – hate even – of Megan Markle. We can all feel good about ourselves now as we link arms against the vile racists
Oh the DS is so unforgiving when you try to edit a comment you would rather not post and you run out of time as I did with this unfinished one…
Anyway, this is what I was trying to write as an alternative:

You know it’s the solstice today, the shortest day, after which the days slowly get longer again. That bit of information is enough to make me feel good – there’s only so much darkness I can take and it seems like our world is full of darkness at the moment and every day there’s another bit of despair-inducing darkness to contend with. There are glimmers of hope and optimism all round though. I did a solstice meditation yesterday with an old friend of mine who started creating these mindful meditations on sacred sites at significant times of the year, namely the equinoxes and solstices. There were about 30 of us all told from every walk of life. Not god botherers or evangelical folk but people like us, sceptics, unvaxxed, awake and conscious beings. The idea is to create a loving, peaceful energy at a location that has special attributes of energy, namely ley lines which my friend is particularly good at dowsing for. Crisscrossing the globe are thousands of such energy lines and sites of specific sacred interest seemed to have been built on the intersections of these sites as ancient people’s could ‘feel’ the special energy they contained. Churches and cathedrals often replaced groves of trees. Ancient peoples knew that at these places prayers and meditations could be especially powerful. Whether you are a believer or not, the idea of sending out intentions of peace and love into the world is a good one. We need more of that. And an absence of fear too. Fear is being whipped up and I catch myself doing it as well at times. When you stand in the truth and the truth is firmly rooted in the heart, you can’t fail. We can’t fail. We are being tested to the point of insanity as Dinger64 says below but we are resolute, we stand strong, we don’t take any bullshit. This day marks the return of the light and I feel that although the battles ahead will still come, we will prevail through all of this. ‘Their’ world is just not an option. As Gimli says at the Council of Elrond in the Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring: “Certainty Of Death? Small Chance Of Success? What Are We Waiting For?”
Aethelred if you struggle deleting post your comment and then go back in when it appears on DS and tap the little coin at bottom right. This brings up ‘Edit.’ Tap ‘Edit’ and then you are back in to your post.
Delete whatever you need to, or all of it and if all then type something like “posted in error” and then post.
Thanks, HP. Unfortunately if you dither about doing a long edit, by the time you’ve written what you want to post I find that I have either been logged out or simply run out of editing time (they are not possible to edit after a certain time) or both! But I’ll try your method next time!
Wow you so reminded me of all of the awesome standing stones and stone circles in England that I’ve always been fascinated with, I think because of the mystery that will never be solved element and also just the sheer primitiveness of it all. When I used to live in Cornwall there were many. I remember dancing round the Merry Maidens butt naked then a coach of German tourists turned up! LOL, The Nine ladies and Seven Sisters in Yorkshire, and many more. Also the Men an Tol was very dear to me and close by. Here’s one of my fave Levellers songs, Men-an-tol, which they played in the wonderful outdoor theatre in Cornwall. Reminds me of my hedonistic past.

A couple of hours ago at Avebury, there were quite a few people doing that kind of thing, leaning against the stones and so on. At that time, it was sunny, and you could just about feel the heat when facing the Sun.

New today from Alex Berenson….
https://alexberenson.substack.com/p/urgent-two-new-studies-show-mrna
URGENT: Two new studies show mRNA-jabbed people have a much higher risk of getting Covid than unvaccinated peopleVaccine-driven original antigenic sin: it’s real and it’s getting worse.
People who have received mRNA Covid vaccines are at least twice as likely to be infected with the coronavirus as unvaccinated people, according to two new papers from researchers in Indiana and Ohio.
Worse, the newer of the two studies, which covered Omicron this fall, found risk actually rises with the number of shots.
People who had received three or more shots were more than three times as likely to be infected as those who hadn’t received any.
“Stanford Drops New Woke List Of Verboten Language – Stanford University has just issued a ludicrous list of words we’re not supposed to use, reports Zero Hedge.”
This headline offends me because:
The word “issued” may trivialize the anguish felt by those who have “issues”.
The word “ludicrous” suggests the relative moral ascendency of the person who writes it, as well as a demeaning attitude towards eccentric people.
The word “word” should absolutely never be used as it marginalizes mute / illiterate people.
And finally, “Zero Hedge” is the worst of all, as it risks offending people who have no back garden, hence “zero hedges”. Therefore it is an insult to those on the lowest incomes.

Freedom of speech has just got even more bizarre… It is now an arrestable offence to pray silently in public anywhere near an abortion clinic!
Forwarded from Lawyer of Light’s Telegram Channel
This is how ludicrous the law is and why I’m so exhausted from working within it.
This is the definition of lunacy and PROVES that what you think silently in your mind is now a crime.
“The censorship zone measure introduced by Birmingham authorities criminalises individuals percieved to be “engaging in any act of approval or disapproval or attempted act of approval or disapproval” in relation to abortion, including through “verbal or written means, prayer or counselling…”

China’s crematoriums overflow with covid corpses because they’ve turned from their Zero Covid policy? You’ve got to be kidding. I don’t believe that for a moment – this is propoganda from The Mail and from China with the intention of making us believe that we still need lockdowns and that covid is a deadly disease and not just a cold.
