happy birthday

2026-07-11T19:23:30.354+08:00

Our cook has turned 80 do we had a party.

some of her kids and grandkids and great grandkids were here and lots of food and a kareoke machine was for entertainment.

No she does not want to quit, even though she has health problems she has more energy than I do

One wishes someone to write her story...migrated from the Visayas, married a tricycle driver and had 11 kids'

.. her family traditionally works for our extended family so she always cooked for my husband when he visited and then full time when we moved here. She is a widow since her husband died of high blood pressure 30 years ago.

One son went to college but died of sudden cardiac death at age 34 and another died of diabetic renal failure. The others work blue collar jobs or tricycle drivers and her daughter is my maid.

gaslighting going on

Hello Mrs. Owens,

You told millions of people that Tyler Robinson "wasn't even there." That you felt "confident stating that Tyler Robinson did not kill murder Charlie Kirk."

He was on camera. Prone on the Losi rooftop at 12:22. Shot at 12:23:28. DNA on the screwdriver at 30…

....

you know, there are hundreds of influences out there, so why the hysteria about Kirk?

And why has Candace Owens constantly changed her story about this?

Can you say "Gaslighting" children?

Candace's supporters are saying she didn't actually say these things. Here are the receipts, most from a single Shawn Ryan interview. I've transcribed every episode on YouTube. There's more. pic.twitter.com/hGFsPFyaB3

now, I am a Democrat and never heard of Kirk, yet the spiritual cascades coming from his death affected thousands of young people, especially young men. And it affected me in a positive way helping me to get the (Physical) strength to go back to church.

Since I am not an evangelical or a Republican, and I don't live in the USA, I cannot judge if this is still going on.

However, the over the top hatred against him and his widow suggests a major psychological problem: projecting their hatred to someone who is a minor figure in today's world and threatening his widow.

The passionate hatred reminds me of my patients with paranoid schizophrenia: Not the quiet ones who say the CIA or the little green men are taking over the world, but the scary ones who you hope won't start acting on their impulses.

The gaslighting is not just of Kirk's shooting: it includes those who take what he said out of context, or more commonly don't quote him at all but just parrot talking points they read from an internet influencer (Owens is not alone in this you know), nor is this type of hatred limited to one side in today's politics, but when it targets family members it has crossed the line.

Someone who had hundreds of hours of talking on podcasts that are still on line, yet those hating him merely say he is hateful, and take a single distorted sentence out of context to prove it.

and of course they insist anyone who talks about conservative values is hateful and should be shunned or worse.

Not logical. Sigh.

future of farming?

2026-07-09T11:56:05.363+08:00

I can't find a link, but in season five episode 3 of Clarkson's farm is about the supermechines and high tech farming of the future.

When I fist visited the Philippines, the planting was with waterbuffalo and our staff took off to harvest their fields by hand. We supplied a small thresher to separate the seed from the stem, so that was a help.

But slowly the farmers who now own what was once Lolo's farthers farm, were gifted it by land reform, are now getting older and their kids don't want to work. So they are selling the land to returning overseas workers who rent it out to tenant farmer, often from poorer areas of the Philippines. And now many have sold or rented their fields to the company putting up a huge solar farm in our area.

Over the years, the water buffalo were replaced by handthreshers ((a small roto tiller) and in more recent years, we rent a huge harvester thresher to bring in the crop. We still plant by hand but give it some time and there are machines that do that.

We are organic, and with fertilizer prices going up (first the Ukraine war stopped potash exports and now the increased price of diesel and petroleum based fertilizer) the price of organic fertilizer, mainly from the local chicken and pig farms, is also going up.

So how do we make a profit? We barely make one: and it was made worse when one of the rice buyers absconded after buying it with a check that bounceed.

Sigh.

So yes we are still growing rice in our area, but what is also going on is looking for gold in the subsoil. Not much gold there, but hey when farmers earn less than ten dollars a day, every little bit helps.

I am not sure how many rice paddies are now no longer growing rice, but you have to remember that the Philippines imports food. Of course, the rich businessmen make oodles of money importing cheap rice so they benefit. This keeps the price of rice low which is good for the poor and working class in the cities, but is discouraging for local farmers.

So although I doubt we will ever go as mechanical as the European farm machines shown to Mr Clarkson, what worries me is that their prices will be another blow to local farmers. This happened a few years ago, when cheap imported onions from Europe undercut local farmers prices.

update;

article about the farm they visited:

In episode three, Jeremy Clarkson and his team cross the border into the Netherlands and Belgium. There, they visit Rotterdam, among other places, where they take a look at the futuristic Floating Farm. A floating farm, in other words. We see Clarkson look skeptical at first, and then become amazed by technology he doesn't actually believe in.

normies in the news

2026-07-09T09:54:12.229+08:00

Mike Rowe's TV show showed the Hollywood types how normal folks worked.

And now he has a podcast on Youtube.

The latest discussion is with the VP:

there are also links to normal people podcast.

why are the Karens so unhappy and fat

2026-07-09T09:47:34.946+08:00

Instapundit has a link to the danger of brain tumors to birth control hormones. the discus discussion is quite interesting.

You know, what no one wants to notice: How the hormones in Birth Control pills cause behavior changes.

The older high estrogen pills not so much but the newer high progesterone ones and the BCShot does.

And don't get me started on the hormones they use for infertility and endometriosis, which we see in older ladies who haven't had babies in their twenties.

(Yes the same medicines they use to transition kids.(and treat certain cancers).

So we pollute out water supply with waste water estrogen and progesterone, not to mention hormones given to animals, and of course phytoestrogens in plastics and Glyphosate in herbicides. So down goes the sperm count. Up goes the metabolic syndrome and obesity.

and no one wants to mention that having and nursing ten kids and running around taking care of them will keep you thin.

the alternative is having ten kids and getting rid of plastics which make life easier and safer (No broken glass bottles). And mass starvation because weeds are destroying the crops.

Sigh.

Happy happy Americans

2026-07-04T12:36:39.500+08:00

.....

and I didn't realize the big ships were coming for the celebration.

,,,,,

then we have the concert in Washington DC

Happy Birthday USA

2026-07-04T01:24:50.969+08:00

..........

But Independence day remind me of the the Boston Pops, who would play this as an encore to their concerts:

,,,,,

Then you have this story about the fans who came to the US to watch the World Cup and discovered that what they thought they knew about the USA was wrong. Duh.

,,,,,,

Ironically, almost no one on the discussion groups has noticed that. \the later episodes of this series is about the US revolution, including the Battle of Saratoga, and now has ended with the Battle of Kings Mountain.

Modern Martyrs

2026-06-30T16:43:44.876+08:00

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

this was in 2023....

of course these are not the only martyrs killed by the enemies of those who hate Catholicism or Christianity and of course these same evil types attack the pious of other religions including Judism, Hinduism, Islam.

Will the movie encourage right wing violence?

2026-06-28T08:47:26.551+08:00

the new controversial movie that is banned in some places (So Elon let it be put on X) is a modern day imitation of Charles Bronson's Death Wish movie.

No, I didn't watch it nor will I watch it in the future because it is violence porn.

So will it encourage right wing nutcases to do the same thing in Europe and in the USA?

Probably: copycat crimes are a known public health problem:

Yet the recent rape gang report in the UK suggests it was covered up, and there are anecdotes that similar crimes are not punished in Europe. So this film will encourage vigilante justice and suggests the use of weapons for self defense might become more common

But no one wants to admit this is already happening: But by the left, and its shocktroops of Antifa.

We read about left wing folk on line spouting non stop hatred of working class folk who are called MAGA, or who are justifying murder and making heroes out of those who murder for political reasons.

one does hope that payback murders against criminals and crooked politicians in the USA and Europe doesn't reach the point of what happens here in the Philippines.

sigh.

I remember the African Proverb that warns: Even a small snake has a fang.

There is a need to spread peace, but alas pacifism always suggests normies need to be peaceful but rarely points out the crimes that they are angry about because the pacifists always underestimate the depth of evil.

refugees unwelcome: Some things never change

2026-06-27T09:40:10.658+08:00

Thousands of migrants are fleeing South Africa amid xenophobic violence and ahead of planned anti-immigrant protests on June 30. Malawi, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, Ghana, and Mozambique are repatriating citizens following the events, with many camping outside consular offices. pic.twitter.com/ktO5T7gMGt

....

So it's not just some in the USA trying to get rid of migrants who flood their country, don't assimilate, steal the jobs of locals, and often resort to crime to live. It is also happening in parts of Europe.

Myself, I oppose sending people back to places like Haiti which is still in chaos, and now Venezuela has had an earthquake, so would you send people there? Regan had the right idea: Those with jobs and assimilated should get an amnesty.

However, the Somalis who defrauded the government via NGO type stuff, and drug gangs, no problem. Throw them out or put them in jail.

Assimilation is a big problem, and in the USA it has been a problem, and local xenophobia against those from a different culture is not a new thing: The Knownothing riots of the 1844 for example was against the Irish Catholics, who were poor and uneducated fleeing the Irish Famine, but their presence exacerbated the anti Catholic prejudices inherited from England. This prejudice was still around when JFK ran for president and he had to point out that he would not push Catholic law into US law, because he would take the oath to defend the constitution: something that ordinary Muslims might want to tell the loudmouths pushing Sharia law into the USA to learn this lesson because their statements about making this into US law is making those of that religion unpopular in some areas.

Most Yanks reading about this (in AlJ, since I doubt the US MSM even knows that it isn't just white Boer farmers fleeing that country) don't realize that South Africa has a problem with African refugees too.

this film was made years ago in 2009, based on a 2005 short film at a time when the huge influx of refugees from starvation and deliberate eviction of the middle class who opposed Mugabe in Zimbabwe filled the slums of South AFrica.

The original inspiration was the treatment of black South Africans under apartheid, but the short film was made to satirize the negative attitudes of South Africans to the refugees.

....'

so remember this film the next time Steven Spielberg and others tell you that the people from outer space just want to help you and are superior.

The refugees in District 9 are slaves who revolted against their masters, and fled to earth. But hey, it could have been worse (/s)
