    Why dont you support your local high street, You are the problem. People like you are bringing in the beast system. 

    I agree with this totally. I used to moan about things being a bit dearer, buying local but quickly came to the conclusion that in every way local was better.

    I get meat, veg, milk and eggs of superior quality at a roughly 10% price increase. A lot of the items are cheaper by far. Depends how you chose to shop.

    On top of that, I talk to owners who genuinely care about my custom. Put things back for me. Call me if they’re not selling on my usual day.

    I get that finances and location dictate a lot of how we live but for me, local is a no brainier.

    i don't know if it is significant or not but didn't elon musk accuse one of the guys who rescued those boys from the cave in thailand of being a pedo?

    I think that was more because musk didn’t get to play hero. He wanted to use a giant tube to rescue the people trapped. Caver he called pedo guy was because caver said musks idea was ridiculous.

    This is a comment from someone who has been observing....

    He said....Normally Orion can only be seen during the winter months in the Norther hemisphere but he could see it during the summer months in 2016 so he knew that the Earth axis has moved and climate change would follow...... not necessarily like the Earth is becoming hot but simply changes occurring and as a result he observed decline of certain insects and plants due to the shift.

     

    I guess we'll have to wait till summer months to check this with our own eyes.

    I could have sworn I’ve seen Orion in the Summertime. I need to check this out.

    "Inserting a hard electronic chip into a squishy organic brain is a bit like fitting a square peg in a round hole, but quantum computing may help us probe exotic materials for improved compatibility."

    I was just thinking about conventional processors not being able to handle the world being hooked up to a centralized beast-like system, and they're talking about quantum computing for brain interface tech too. Concerning stuff, not going lie.

     

    People should look into D-Wave if they haven't already.

     

     

     

    I was watching, Replicas (Keanu Reeves). Crap film but thought provoking at least.

    here is a random page out of the book.

    don't you see something wrong with your above statement,you say it won't let you copy and past which you obviously have done and so did I

     

     

     

     

    xiii
    Notice Concerning Terminology and Physics
    This book is written for both layman and scientist. The main text of the book
    seeks to explain the scientific information in a simple and entertaining way. The
    footnotes contain the technical information and sources for the scientist and
    scholar. We employ the term “geocentrism” to represent the scientific position
    that the Earth is motionless in space at the center of the universe with neither
    diurnal rotation nor translational movement. We have adopted the term
    “heliocentrism” to represent the views of Copernicus, Galileo, Kepler, Newton,
    even though there are various differences among them, including the acentrism of
    Einstein. Others employ “geocentricity” or “geostatism” to represent the
    motionless Earth, and employ “geokineticism” or “antigeostatism” to represent a
    moving Earth. The term “geocentrism” will stand for any scientific theory that
    holds the Earth is the center of the universe and/or motionless in space. The term
    “heliocentrism” will stand for any scientific theory that holds that the Earth is not
    in the center, or that the sun is the center, or that there is no center of the universe,
    and that the Earth is in constant motion. In addition to the above, we have adopted
    the spelling “ether” rather than “aether,” since most scientific texts have employed
    the former. We have adopted to capitalize titles such as Special Relativity,
    General Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, the Big Bang, String Theory, etc., in
    order to emphasize that a particular but controversial theory is being discussed.
    The word “Earth” has been consistently capitalized in distinction to “sun,”
    “moon,” “stars” or “universe” which have been left in the lower case. The cosmic
    microwave background radiation is abbreviated with the acronym “CMB.” So as
    to limit the confusion often inherent in the words rotation and revolution, these
    volumes use word “rotation” to refer to the turning of an object upon its own axis,
    including the turn of the entire universe around the north-south axis of the Earth;
    whereas “revolution” refers to the angular movement of one object around another
    wherein both are separated by space, as in saying “Mercury revolves around the
    sun.”
    We make use of Newtonian, Machian, Lorentzian, Einsteinian, Quantum,
    LCDM (Big Bang) and other mathematical systems of physics but do not endorse
    any of them as having the correct physical representation of reality. We use these
    models to demonstrate that the geocentric universe can be substantiated by one or
    more of these models, but that none of them can provide the correct physical
    model of the universe. At times we will demonstrate how their limited view of
    reality has been used to obscure geocentric cosmology from the public, and at
    other times show how the logical conclusions of their own systems supports
    geocentric cosmology

    MOD NOTE: SO WOULD IT NOT HAVE BEEN BETTER TO POLITELY TELL ALEXA YOU MANAGED TO COPY AND PASTE. DISCUSS THE CONTENT OF THE BOOK NOT THE ABILITY OF SOMEONE TO COPY AND PASTE PLEASE.

    Sometimes when I look at some of these sculptures, I can't help feeling there is more to some of these. They are so realistic.

    They either have to be very talented or they had some clever machinery back in the day.

    I agree but I think it was a whole different way of being. No major technological distractions. Real talent was more likely to be celebrated. As the worlds worst artist I can’t really comment on the skill needed.

    Cheers- This is exactly what I thought, it's like the The Colossus of Appennino Florence Italy above, they are to good to have been carved or water eroded.

    You may be right. Remember though,  the talent of the Italian sculptors.

    Why should anyone care who doesn't want to change their monkey history in any way? And it is definitely unique. Since it was destroyed the history is again as they want it to be. Classic case of inferiority complex.

    What are you on about? Its just an interesting photo.

    All those old tales of saints in coracles too ,there were lots of them there I remember.

    I was once on Exmoor in enormous storm hiking and found lots of sheep carcasses which was bit  disconcerting as some locals  had kind of warned me earlier  of the beast of Exmoor  ?

    Was there a wild cat left by American troops stationed there or some other wild cat or something else?

     

     

     

    Not so sure with Exmoor. It’s been a few years since I’ve been. Cornwall  is obsessed with the beast of Bodmin. A large cat of some sort in theory.

    So are you a full on T.I now? 😁

    Don’t think it was to do with me. Some dodgy stuff in Truro allegedly. It then expanded elsewhere.

    Of they are after me they can knock and come in for a chat. I’m not going anywhere.

    Yeah, fuck them. No brain, no soul  "people".

    Would have been nice to be informed of their presence. It’s private land with over a 100 metre driveway to where they parked.

    I suppose I should be grateful it wasn't travellers!

    Only if you accept it, otherwise it is unworkable, 👍

    Whether you accept it or not, if you don’t use it you won’t get ANYTHING. 99.9% of resisters will buckle under that pressure.
