Hello Northumberland! This is Central Ohio calling, thanking You as graciously as one can on the internet.

What a special treat to wake up to! (Not woke. ;-)

The more I hear from and about Kemi, the brighter she seems. Brighter in all respects.

I was disturbed to "hear" about what Baroness Faulkner had to go through. I'm not just "talking" about the £30,000, but I can't help but wonder what would-a happened to a person had hadn't had her resources. The usual would-a happened, right? But, all-in-all, I'm very happy for her. It's just sad that something like this could happen in an organization presumably concerned with fairness and equality. This is what happens when the Trans-ideology dominates. They want nothing to do with fairness and equality. Domination is their theme song.

I could only skim the article about the LGBTQ activity in Your schools over there. I shudder to think about what's happening over here. I've mentioned before that it's biologically impossible for a person to change their (biological) gender. Gender isn't assigned, at birth or at any other time. That's gaslighting. Gender is determined. It's determined, determinably, at conception. This isn't rocket science. So a trans person, identifying their gender as the opposite sex is, themselves, misgendering themselves. Maybe it is rocket science. Donno.

And it just figures Dame Alison Rose wants to stick it to the taxpayer. Maybe that will reinforce her errant beliefs about herself that she didn't do anything wrong. Or she just a greedy bisstard, like all the nobs.

Yet another great read in The Atlantic article on Israel. Just one point, outta many:

"It seems odd that one has to say: Killing civilians, old people, even babies, is always wrong. But today say it one must. . . . . . The lack of decency and respect for human life is astonishing: ... October 7 deniers, like Holocaust deniers, exist in an especially dark place."

In sum, IMO, Western society is psychotic.

"psychosis

noun

psy·​cho·​sis sī-ˈkō-səs

pluralpsychoses sī-ˈkō-ˌsēz

Synonyms of psychosis

: a serious mental illness (such as schizophrenia) characterized by defective or lost contact with reality often with hallucinations or delusions"

This has been scientifically and artfully explained in "The Master and His Emissary" by Dr. Iain McGilchrist, and in his longer, follow-on book. It's a very sad story, in which we all contribute, to greater or lesser extents. A brief introduction (on Kindle only) is $.99 and takes about an hour: https://www.amazon.com/Divided-Brain-Search-Meaning-ebook/dp/B008JE7I2M/ref=sr_1_5 I should read that again.

All that to say...

This was yet another outstanding round-up of great articles, Michelle. *Outstanding!* Thought provoking.. Emotion-rending at times. Thank You, as always.
