Monday is one of those days when you really just don’t want to do ANYTHING. It takes ages to get up and ready and motivated for anything. The weekends are never long enough, the hangovers are too horrid, and the coffee required to overcome such problems essentially has to be strong enough to be used as a paint-sripper.
It really all just leaves you feeling like this:
Which gives me an idea for today’s theme – hence, why I recycled the image for today’s theme. It wasn’t JUST sheer laziness, actually.
Y’all remember a superb film called An American Werewolf in London? I actually watched it when I was living in London, several centuries ago, and I always thought very highly of it – especially the creature effects, which were just incredible.
The other night, I was out walking on a moonlit night along a forest path, with pretty much sod-all around me by way of human civilisation, and it was beautiful. But it also reminded me of the creepy-as-all-get-out scenes on the moors in that film, hence the idea for today’s theme.
So, let us honour one of the truly great creature features today:
And then of course there is the ending, which is both brutal and poignant:
They really don’t make movies like this anymore – although the new streaming film, Werewolf by Night, comes damned close:
The Mighty God-Emperor
His Most Illustrious, Noble, August, Benevolent, and Legendary Celestial Majesty, the God-Emperor of Mankind, Donaldus Triumphus Magnus Astra, the First of His Name, the Lion of Midnight, may the Lord bless him and preserve him, has been busy attacking potential 2024 rivals for the Presidency:
Ex-US President Donald Trump has launched a rhetorical broadside against Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, insisting he is responsible for the governorโs growing popularity among Republicans, amid predictions that both could seek the GOP nomination in the 2024 presidential race.
Trump took to his Truth Social account on Thursday evening with a lengthy statement savaging DeSantis, who he derisively nicknamed โRon DeSanctimonious, an average REPUBLICAN governor with great public relations.โ
Though parts of his statement are not entirely coherent, the former commander in chief went on to take credit for DeSantisโ electoral successes since 2017, saying โRon came to me in desperate shapeโ that year as a โpolitically dead candidateโ with โlow approval, bad polls, and no money.โ
โ[DeSantis] said that if I would endorse him, he could win,โ Trump said. โI didnโt know [his GOP primary opponent, Adam Putnam,] so I said, โLetโs give it a shot.โโ
Trump argued that his endorsement for the Florida politician โwas as thoughโฆ a nuclear weapon went off,โ adding that he โfixed his campaign, which had completely fallen apart,โ and helped DeSantis win over the Democratic gubernatorial candidate, Andrew Gillum, in 2019.
While itโs unclear what prompted the nearly 500-word diatribe against DeSantis, Trump suggested the move could be linked to the 2024 presidential race, though neither has officially announced a run for the Oval Office.
This strikes me as amazingly foolish and short-sighted. DeSantis has so far shown absolutely no interest in running for the Presidency – nor, objectively speaking, is there much evidence that he could actually win, given that we now have essentially indisputable evidence that American “elections” are rigged in favour of Daemoncrats at every possible level.
All Trump is doing is fracturing an already broken party. The Stupid Party is incapable of winning now, because it is incapable of finding a coherent and powerful message. Trump brought that with him when he ran in 2016, and he won on it. He went significantly off-message in 2020, which contributed to his loss – though ultimately that loss was due to severe fraud.
But this REALLY does not help him. It makes Trump look petty, vindictive, and very dumb.
On the other hand, the fact that the whorenalists and presstitutes are all lining up to acclaim DeSantis as the future nominee of the Republicuck Party, tells me that this is a concerted psyop, designed to keep the MAGA types “on the reservation” and pull support away from Trump.
Unfortunately, Trump appears to be falling for that game. And this is VERY foolish of him.

I have seen firsthand what happens when governments stop listening to their people. It does not lead to good things. This is an extraordinarily dangerous path that the Daemoncrats are on now. They think that they can keep getting away with it – because, to a large extent, THEY CAN. There is nothing so despicable, so spineless, so pathetic, as a Republicuck, and there is nothing so ineffective and useless as a cuckservative.
But you can only push people so far before they start pushing back. The question is, how far IS too far? We just don’t know yet – but we WILL find out in a very big hurry.

Reading Too Much Into Things
Your “Science is F***ING WEIRD” moment of the week is from The Male Brain, and it’s all about spiders, which I absolutely HATE. Worse, it’s about how female false widows – nasty bastards, the whole lot of them – attract males, and they do it by playing “hot-cold”:
When it comes to spider love, female widow spiders hold the key to attracting mates, potentially adjusting their web’s attractiveness to lure males, according to new research.
A study led by Simon Fraser University’s resident “spider man,” PhD candidate Andreas Fischer, reveals new details about how female false widow spiders (Steatoda grossa) communicate using pheromones — and suggests they can build more attractive webs — to lure mate-seeking males by adjusting the pH level of their pheromone-bearing silk.
Female false widow spiders disseminate pheromone from their webs to attract males and deposit contact pheromone components on their webs that induce courtship by the males once they arrive.
This latest research, published this week in the journal Nature Communications Biology, also identifies the organ that produces these pheromone components — the posterior aggregate silk gland — as well as the chemical structure of the pheromone components involved in attraction and courtship.
“We also found that female false widow spiders have a sophisticated method to constantly ‘mate call’ by slowly breaking down the courtship-inducing pheromone components to sex attractant pheromone components that lures the males in,” says Fischer, who carries out research in the Department of Biological Sciences’ Gries-lab.
False widow spiders are globally invasive and capable of reproducing year-round but little is known about the reproductive behaviour of this common species of spider, also sometimes called the cupboard spider, which predominantly lives in buildings.
If you ask me, it should be entirely legal to use flamethrowers to burn away spiders, of ANY kind.
Your long read of the week is by Tony Cox for RT, and discusses the long list of ways in which the USA has happily collaborated with, and even supported, the most odious and nasty people in the world for their own gain:
The FBI, under director J. Edgar Hoover, also relied on a network of Nazi spies and informants and helped protect them from prosecution and deportation. Laszlo Agh admitted to an FBI agent about his involvement in Hungaryโs Arrow Cross, a fascist group that murdered thousands of Jews and helped deport thousands of others. Agh allegedly tortured many of his victims, forcing some to eat their own feces or jump onto partially buried bayonets. Nevertheless, historians say, Hoover recruited Agh as an anti-communist informant, and when immigration officials finally got around to trying to prosecute and deport the Nazi collaborator for visa fraud, the FBI chief forbid his agent from testifying about what the Hungarian had confessed.
โIn choosing to take the low moral ground, Hoover and the FBI betrayed the trust of Americans, living and dead,โ wrote historian Richard Rashke, author of โUseful Enemiesโ. The agencyโs โconspiracy of silenceโ in protecting war criminals made Americans โunwitting hypocrites in the eyes of the world,โ he added. โHow then must Americans judge the cadre of unelected, powerful men who welcomed some of those same murderers to America and helped them escape punishment in the name of national security?โ
Hoover also defended Viorel Trifa, who helped lead Romaniaโs fascist Iron Guard and later became bishop of the Romanian Orthodox Church in America. He became so politically connected that he once led prayers in Congress and met personally with then-Vice President Richard Nixon. Back in Romania, Trifa was sentenced to death in absentia for alleged war crimes. Hoover, who considered Trifa a โvery desirable part of the landscape during the Cold War,โ persuaded Nixon to cancel a meeting with one of the bishopโs accusers in 1955.
Americaโs Nazi migrants largely flew under the radar of public exposure until the 1970s, when activists began seeking to hold them accountable. In 1979, the US Department of Justice (DOJ) formed a new unit to investigate and prosecute hidden war criminals for deportation. However, the arms of the federal government that had been doing business with Hitlerโs acolytes proved to be a hindrance to the DOJ initiative.
When Soobzokov was indicted for visa fraud in 1979, based on allegations that he had lied about his record as a Waffen SS officer, the CIA suddenly found a copy of a document showing that the Fuhrer of the North Caucasus had disclosed his Nazi past. It turns out that the spy agency had fired Soobzokov not due to his alleged wartime atrocities, but because he hadnโt been honest enough with his handlers. The agency did get him to admit to leading a death squad and executing a troublemaker, but his interviewer believed the Circassian spy was still holding back much of his story.
The whole thing is worth reading in full. The US government has consistently, since Wilson’s time, ignored its own rhetoric when it suits, simply to gain some sort of advantage over its rivals.
This makes America no different from any other great empire, of course – but no other great empire has ever practised self-deception, and global deception, on such a vast scale, so often, with so much misery resulting from it all.

- If you want to troll the Big Bad Pharma companies, all you have to do is create a Twatter account that promises people free versions of their drugs and watch the merry mayhem unfold (THIS IS NOT AN ENDORSEMENT OF SUCH ACTIONS!);
MUH RUSHIAN KAHLOOOOOZHUN!!!
The Neo-Tsar‘s Ministry of Foreign Affairs is the most media-savvy and capable department in his government, to my eyes – and one of his most capable underlings in that department is the ะะะ spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, who issued a rather clever and very subtle statement on the subject of negotiations:
If you take this statement at face value, you can fool yourself into thinking that the Russians are now desperate to get to the negotiating table. This is simply not true. All ะะฐัะฐ ะะฐัะฐ is saying is that Russia’s stance on negotiations has not changed – they are willing to negotiate an end to the war, but they will only do so in a way that benefits Russia and guarantees its security.
In other words – negotiations are impossible as long as the Banderites are in charge in Kiev, and the neoclowns are in charge in Washington, London, Brussels, Paris, and Berlin.

She is Anastasia Vattel’ (ะะฝะฐััะฐัะธั ะะฐััะตะปั), almost certainly not her real name, of indeterminate age but probably in her late twenties, from Belgorod, Russia. And if she’s not at least 30% plastic, then something is very seriously wrong with my eyes.
OK, that’s all, show’s over, back to work, sod off and stop being so lazy…
