Lassie Go Home

Tales of false animal rescues that didn't really need rescuing (if they got up, they can get down is my theory), abound, and always make the press ......

Lucy Planned Her Escape ...

 ..... and this blog.

Pork Cadaver Dogs?

 Now I don't know about you .....

Billy Was Very Good At Pointing To The Spot.

.... but I am a fan of real crime TV shows. Not the UK versions but the US ones.

Revenge Politics

I was struck that President Biden felt the need to protect army generals and policemen from Trumps revenge  ... 

Pre-emptive Pardons General Mark Milley and Dr Anthony Fauci

He was forced he felt to protect them via Presidential pre-emptive pardons after Donald Trump repeatedly threatened to investigate and potentially prosecute his political enemies during the election campaign.

Mr Douglas Ramsey Assuming The Position

In December 2022 they appointed Douglas Ramsey as its Chief Operating Officer (COO) ... he had previously spent three decades at Tyson Foods, where he oversaw its poultry and McDonald’s businesses ... so probably not a committed vegan then.

Shamans 'Special Operation'

Before Putin's Russia invaded the Ukraine in what he coyly insists is a special operation .....

Russian Shamans

 .... an operation that's cost Russia 700,000 killed or wounded so far and counting.

TRUMPINATOR - The Second Term

When Ex-President Donald Trump lost the last Presidential elections in 2020 .....

THE TRUMPINATOR

.... he didn't take defeat well (and we all know about the more than dubious attempts he made to overturn the democratic vote), and he smouldered on the edge of the political scene for the last four years.

Eight Mugshots On The Route To Murder

Thirty six year old Melvin Williams is one such man. A typical product of the 'hood,' but that's no excuse for this evil little mans actions.

Worrying Fact

The majority age group in Africa is now 15 years old with the median age of just 19 .... 

Graphics - The Visual Capitalist.

 ....while the median age in the UK is 40.7 years, and the USA 38.1 years, and the median age of the EU's population is 44.4 years!

Just think about that for a moment, and realise that world overpopulation hasn't slowed down, and that an ageing USA, Europe and Western Europe will be, or are under some threat of losing their identities as their birthrates decline. More than half the worlds population growth in the next 30 years will happen in just eight countries - the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Egypt, Ethiopia, India, Nigeria, Pakistan, the Philippines and Tanzania, and they will all probably retain high birth rates on to the end of this century and beyond. 

Mrs Ghandi in India, had realised that one of the prime drivers of India's problems of poverty was the unrestricted population growth, but her efforts to slow it down failed. In fact India's population growth will soon, or possibly has, overtaken China, as the country with the biggest population in the world with its 1.4bn people. Ethiopia, despite its occasional famines, has never made any effort to slow its population growth .... similarly Egypt, whose population in 1945 was 19.1 million and is now 103 million, a fivefold increase in 80 years. 

While 61 countries will see declines in their populations by at least 1% by around 2050, by November 2023, the planet was still home to 8.2 billion people (UN predict it will reach 9.7 billion in 2050 and 10.4 billion by 2100), and the UN believes rising to a peak around the 2080's or 2090's, at about 10.4bn, though this disputed by some demographers who believe that peak could happen even sooner.

 

We could see the populations of the poorer countries simply marching into those with declining populations. Something for our children and grandchildren to worry about.

Art For No Arts Sake?

In another of those stories that shows how degraded modern art is from the general western populations perception of what is really art ....

Art Beer And Real Beer - What Difference?

There was another of the many tales of cleaning ladies (or gentlemen if such was the case), not noting the difference between art and rubbish.

Voodoo Land Killings

The current failed state of Haiti was originally part of the Spanish Empire until 1697, when the western portion that is modern Haiti was ceded to France and became Saint-Domingue.

Haiti Map

It was the home of sugarcane plantations worked by enslaved Africans with the French settlers being outnumbered by slaves by almost 10 to 1. A large number of the slaves were able to retain many of their ties to African cultures, religion, and language with these ties continually being renewed by newly imported Africans.

Baphomet's Fools

There are some humans who are technically nut jobs .....

King Charles In Red

.... but who somehow are not identified as such and walk the earth, and post their strange ideas on the Internet .... they are called conspiracists and they come in all shapes and colours. So for example some of them think that the British Royal Family are shape shifting lizards, along with other world heads.
