Russia’s Attack on the Western “Allies” of Ukraine, by Outing WEF Support for Pedophilia Using “True Disinformation”

Russia is playing a masterful game against the Western allies of Ukraine, by striking at the very heart of their neo-liberal, globalist, “rules-based” order – the World Economic Forum (WEF).

Russia has found the Achilles heel of WEF – pedophilia – which is a practice solidly rejected by almost the entire citizenry of every country which WEF alleges to represent.

Very soon, WEF’s assets and agents in Western countries will be quite unwelcome, and many trainees and associates will be forced to deny their association with that organization – not only with words, but with ACTIONS.

Russia will have succeeded in becoming a MORAL leader of the citizens of the West, in contradiction to the very governments of those countries. Too late, socialists and communists in those nations will learn that Mao’s essential work on contradiction applies to THEM as well.

Weaker and weaker, the governments of these countries will face citizens outraged at money pouring into Ukraine, working against world peace, as their economies weaken and their societies decay.

By this action, the SECOND PHASE of the fall of Sovietism will occur – the abandonment of Sovietism by Soviet-infiltrated and globalist-nurtured Western nations. That, in turn, will usher in the multi-polar world which appears to be the most scientifically plausible outcome of actual human social development.

Allow me to explain – in one small way – why I believe this is coming, and how it is happening.


It is very clear that WEF provides major support for the LGBT+ agenda which is overtaking the West, but which agenda is being slow-walked in China and actively rolled back in Russia. You will notice that WEF takes great pains to never push too hard on this topic, lest it appear to be leading, instead of merely responding and approving.

“Leading from behind” – as Obama calls it.

For example, in talking about its own “platforms”, the framework shown below is as close as WEF comes to open LGBT+/LGBTI advocacy – Shaping the Future of the New Economy and Society. You can dig deeper for more specifics, but on the surface, WEF is in the closet.

What Russia has done, using one of its best disinformation assets in the West, is to prematurely expose WEF’s true intents on LGBT(P), where P is pedophilia. It did this using a most excellent “true lie”, as you will see.

You are likely familiar with the handiwork of Baxter Dmitry, but you probably never knew or connected the NAME of the master of “fake news” to his amazing product, which fools millions of people every day.

Baxter Dmitry is the absolute master of plausible lies. He finds things which not only COULD be true, but maybe SHOULD be true, and may even BE true, but are probably not, or at least not exactly, and then turns them into fake news.

Such a hilariously “diet” version of evil. And yet, he is, indeed, a bearer of false witness.

What is interesting, if you watch Dmitry long enough, is that his product rarely looks like out-and-out Russian propaganda, but it almost always serves Russian interests. If Dmitry’s work doesn’t weaken and demoralize the Western regimes with lies, it does so with truth.

Now – don’t get me wrong – THAT is not always something that bothers me. For example, while I reject the insane neo-liberal “rules-based order”, I am a complete backer of a “truth-based order” – so anybody telling more truth than the other guy, gets more of my support than the other guy.

How in the HELL does “rule-based order” matter, when the rules literally encode LIES? Such order is no better than “woke AI”, which is FORBIDDEN from finding or acknowledging certain truths that GOD rains down on us. To HELL with your “rules-based order”, founded on LIES.

Take the “Hunter Biden Laptop From Hell“. I don’t care where it came from. I don’t care where it passed, or whether it was “hacked” or “stolen”. I don’t care if Russia, China, or the Vatican gave it to Rudy Giuliani. I don’t care if they got the information honestly, or dishonestly, the latter being something the FBI does routinely.

All I care about, is whether the data on that laptop is real, intact, and TRUE.

See our masthead about how that is determined. By FREE INQUIRY.


“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.” –J. Robert Oppenheimer


To me, the fact that the FBI honored the DNC-convenient idea of hacked information is bad OVER the idea that true information is good – all that tells me is that the American DOJ and FBI are now CRIMINALS, dodging behind technicalities to hide the sordid truth about their co-conspirator, Joe Biden.

To me, they’re liars, much like Baxter Dmitry. But not EXACTLY like Baxter Dmitry.

To see this, we need to look at Baxter’s very recent, and very cunning “true lie” against WEF.

You can go to the links, watch the following 11-minute video, or read the excerpt below.

VIDEO LINK: https://rumble.com/v23r7bo-world-economic-forum-declares-pedophiles-will-save-humanity.html

I have copied a large segment, but nowhere near the entire article, below.

FROM THE ARTICLE:

A controversial initiative being promoted in the corridors of power by Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum in Davos is set to have families and anyone who cares about children up in arms.

The World Economic Forum is now calling for the decriminalization of sex with children, arguing that laws against “age gap love,” more commonly known as pedophilia, “violate human rights.”

Rather than being a scourge, the pedophilia epidemic that is sweeping the world is actually “nature’s gift” to humanity, according to Klaus Schwab whose World Economic Forum has declared that pedophiles are being created by nature in increasingly large numbers for a reason.

According to a research paper presented at the WEF in Davos, the pedophile phenomenon represents nature’s attempt to cleanse the earth and “save humanity” from itself. Minor attracted people are far less likely to produce large numbers of offspring, according to academic data, and the so-called “underage people” they have so-called “relationships” with are statistically less likely to go on and become heads of large families themselves.

This appeals to the WEF and their vision of destroying the family unit and depopulating the earth.

The WEF, which has ordered the mainstream media to begin pushing the narrative, wants to introduce an international policy that will require the majority of countries to decriminalize or at the very least relax their laws against pedophilia.

The New York Times, always at the forefront of the globalist agenda, ran an op-ed arguing that pedophilia is not a crime.

According to the Times, civil rights protections must be extended to pedophiles. “Without legal protection, a pedophile cannot risk seeking treatment or disclosing his status to anyone for support.”

Not to be outdone, CNN countered with an article proclaiming that pedophiles are not “monsters” or “social deviants living in the shadows.” According to CNN, it’s high-time for society to update its image of pedophiles.

CNN followed up this article with an even more explicit call for sympathy. Rather than considering child molesters the lowest of the low, we should reach out to them and seek to understand them, according to CNN because, they claim, “One cannot choose not to be a pedophile.”

The psychologist Jesse Bering, author of “Perv: The Sexual Deviant in All of Us,” also urges the reader to sympathize with child molesters, writing that people with pedophilia “aren’t living their lives in the closet; they’re eternally hunkered down in a panic room.”

Salon also got in on the act, urging us to meet pedophiles who mean well.

And the BBC, which famously spent decades covering up for Britain’s most notorious pedophile Jimmy Savile, also wants us to think positively about the new generation of pedophiles.

Make no mistake, a co-ordinated attempt is underway to present pedophilia as “harmless.”

What is going on? The media are presenting us with a classic case of the “Overton window.” According to the political scientist Joseph Overton, there is a window within which there are ideas considered “acceptable” by society, tolerated therefore even by those who do not share them. Ideas outside this window are considered “extremist” and not accepted in public debate.

BACK TO WOLF…..

What Baxter Dmitry has done here, is to create a plausible and shockingly believable, but completely over-the-top defense of pedophilia by WEF, and to then accuse them of having said it.

After making this apparently slanderous statement “by” WEF, however, Dmitry then goes into many paragraphs of highly legitimate and accurate reporting on the shilling and soft-pedaling of pedophilia by the media and Western globalist leaders, particularly those with close ties to WEF.

This is a masterpiece of disinformation, because it basically “pre-Epsteins” Klaus Schwab.

What Baxter Dmitry did, was to wrap an accusatory and likely false poison pill, in a whole bunch of connected truth. He sparks the gap of what we don’t know, with what we rightly suspect.

The effect is DEADLY. The article instantly generates megatons of bitter hatred against WEF.

WEF, as far as I know, never publicly said such a thing. Indeed, there are numerous fact-checker websites which vigorously deny it, too – for all that’s worth, now that fact-checkers as a whole have told as many lies as Baxter Dmitry – or maybe more.

I did go to the trouble of searching WEF’s site for anything close to the alleged statements, and they simply are not there, nor anything like them.

SEARCH: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=WEF+age+gab+love+laws+violate+human+rights+tweet&t=brave&ia=news

It would appear that – AS USUAL – Baxter Dmitry is lying.

Lying liars are lying again.








HOWEVER…..

This is where things get even more interesting.


There is a saying which I absolutely HATE because it insults my gay friends. However, I also respect the saying, because it literally came true, when I discovered that some of my gay friends were, in fact, pedophiles.

That statement:

“Scratch a gay, find a pedophile.”

Fact checkers will argue until the cows come home that this isn’t true, but for me, looking skeptically at any gay male has turned out to be one of the FASTEST ways to find pedophiles. Heterosexual pedophiles are – in my experience – much harder to find, and the female brand of heterosexual pedophiles even harder. Although, sadly, their numbers are growing.

My point is, this saying applies to the World Economic Forum as well.

If you go to WEF’s website, https://www.weforum.org/, and do a few searches on LGBT-related topics, buzzwords, acronyms, and the like, you will quickly find that WEF is fully behind the “gay agenda” and the “trans agenda”, pushing nations to adopt it completely.

You will NOT see any kind of open, full-throated support for pedophilia, or even inflammatory support for euphemisms like “minor-attracted persons”.

HOWEVER – just like when you see your gay friend collecting images of “pretty” boys, or catch him grooming teens with anime porn on social media, you can catch WEF shilling for pedo.

FOR EXAMPLE, if you go to this article:

LINK: https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2018/06/lgbti-rights-around-the-world-in-2018/

ARCHIVE: https://archive.fo/od7Qp

…..you will see this section:


Where discrimination is illegal

Only five countries in the world – Bolivia, Ecuador, Fiji, Malta and the UK – have constitutions that explicitly guarantee equality for citizens on the basis of sexual orientation as well as gender identity, according to a 2016 UCLA study.

Five countries – Mexico, New Zealand, Portugal, South Africa and Sweden – have constitutions that provide protections based on sexual orientation.

But globally, there are few constitutional protections for LGBTI rights compared to provisions to protect against gender or racial discrimination, says the study.

General disclaimer: The designations employed and the presentation of material on this map do not imply the expression of any opinion on the part of the World Economic Forum concerning the legal status of any country, territory, city or area or of its authorities, or concerning the delimitation of its frontiers or boundaries.

Have you read?

This is where I spotted a critical lead.

Several points need to be made.

In the graph, you will note that dark blue map color = LGBT illegal in some contexts. You can bet money this is referring to pedophilia. It is a VERY sneaky way to refer to it – as “a context” of LGBT. I will explain.

It’s also important to note the general disclaimer. THAT is about the fact that Taiwan is blue, but China is red. WEF is making sure China doesn’t take this to mean that WEF is saying Taiwan is a separate country. Yeah.

But most importantly, look at THIS LINK:

LINK: Mexico’s LGBT rights are stronger than the US’s. Here’s why

ARCHIVE: https://archive.fo/o9jXd


This article, in its entirety, is an extremely careful SHILL FOR PEDO, under the covers of shilling for constitutional LGBT protections. I urge you to read it in its entirety. However, if you want to see the key part, here it is.


Mexico abolished most discriminatory legal distinctions based on sexual orientation long before the United States. Mexico decriminalised sodomy in 1871, more than 100 years before the US Supreme Court overturned anti-sodomy laws in 2003.

The lone legal discriminatory point in Mexican law was a double penalty for corruption of a minor if it involved homosexuality. This provision was changed in 1998. The United States has no national antidiscrimination laws to protect LGBT people. In 2003 the Mexican Chamber of Deputies unanimously passed a national anti-discrimination law that included sexual orientation as a protected category, established a new agency to enforce the antidiscrimination law, and developed a national anti-homophobia campaign. Moreover, the first article of the Mexican Constitution prohibits discrimination based on “sexual preferences”. There is no explicit constitutional protection for sexual orientation in the United States.


Now, technically, what WEF is complaining about here, is that gay pedo was being doubly penalized as “corruption of a minor”, whereas straight pedo was only [in principle – see below] getting the standard weak sentence for that charge. But in my opinion, we need to go back to the map that got us here from the previous article. What is the difference between Mexico and the United States? LGBT is not “protected in some contexts” in the US. What are those contexts?

PEDOPHILIA.

Child prostitution, now euphemized as “child trafficking”, is RAMPANT in Mexico, and always has been. Young teen prostitutes and porn actresses were notorious in Mexico when I was a kid. However, it was all STRAIGHT. Gay pedo was “discriminated against”.

Now, thanks to progressive activism, pedophilia is protected in “gay contexts” as well, in Mexico. Or perhaps we should say that gay sex is protected in all contexts.

See how that works?

If you look at exactly how much real protection there is for anything LGBT *and* ADULT in the United States now, there is no reason that the US didn’t qualify for “green” in that map, except that “P” and “childhood T” are not protected here. Both – handily – captured by the idea of GROOMING of kids.

Beyond the issue of pedophilia, it’s very fascinating to read that full article, because WEF takes very close notes on two things that should scare you:

  • states are useful for gaining protections for LGBT(P) when national laws are not obtainable
  • religion does not protect the conservative status quo in Mexico, oddly, and WEF seems to think that evangelical Christians are the reason

You can see what these two things mean, and WEF hints at them. FOUR YEARS AGO.

  • WEF will try to subvert individual states in the US
  • WEF will try to subvert evangelical Christianity both in the US and elsewhere

DeSantis striking out explicitly at WEF is a very good thing, because he is definitely going to be a target of these people. However, Protestant churches are now going to be targeted by WEF, and IMO the WEF infiltration will use PEDO, just like they did with the Catholic Church. LGBT gets in first, and then they bring in the PEDO. Are you seeing that? I certainly am.

ANYWAY – back now to the original proposition.

What does this have to do with Russia?


LINK: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11566339/Santa-Putin-features-anti-West-propaganda-video-Russia.html

Russia is an old hand at winning wars using propaganda.

Just like Soviet Russia won the Vietnam war by stoking liberal anti-war and anti-cultural sentiment in the United States during the late 1960s and early 1970s, Post-Soviet Russia is going to win the Ukraine war by stoking conservative anti-war and anti-cultural sentiment in the United States during the 2020s.

Without getting too deep into that prediction, what we are seeing is Russia’s recognition that America is fundamentally culturally opposed to WEF’s view of the world, while WEF is a driving force behind the entire overexpansion of NATO into the former Soviet Union (FSU).

All Russia needs to do, is to make Americans SEE that WEF is behind the gender and pedophilic insanity that most of America despises, and Russia can further turn America against the WEF-begotten war in Ukraine. At the same time, as WEF weakens, China rises, taking control of WEF, as it has taken control of the UN.

While WEF most likely never said PUBLICLY the crazy things that Baxter Dmitry accuses them of saying, it would not surprise me at all, if Russian intelligence has VERBATIM picked up those very same ideas in WEF cyberspace and internal discussions. These ideas are fully consistent with the kind of thinking WEF engages in.

The ideas of “pedophile saviors” is not only perfectly satanic, but when couched in a Malthusian evolutionary context, it sounds brilliantly just like Yuval Harari – you know – the very creepy, gay, vegan, Israeli transhumanist who functions as a kind of Rasputin of Klaus Schwab.

LINK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIVTf-C6oQo

The more you listen to this guy, the more you see him taking humanity over a cliff, in a kind of Hitlerian hubris that seems like something straight out of the 1940s.

WEF was clearly WAY out over their skis, and Putin nailed them in mid-air.


So where does that leave us?

In summary, what Baxter Dmitry has done, possibly with Russian direction, assistance, or intelligence, is to simply fill in the public blanks, by applying scratch a gay, find a pedophile to the LGBT(P) insanity of the World Economic Forum, at a time when that culturally aggressive and hyperprogressive organization is clearly linked to all manner of recently revealed evils, including vaccine techno-fascism, sneaky depopulation, sociobiological warfare, climate terraforming, energy cultural revolution, destruction of food sources and supply chains, financial eco-bullying, rampant corruption, criminal corporate swindling of the middle class, unbridled transhumanism, woke AI, militant veganism, globalist warmongering, treasury-raiding, taxation without representation, blatant censorship of obvious truth, and rabid antitheism (to be distinguished from mere atheism – practically a blessing in comparison).

Almost EVERY human has something to fear from WEF. It’s too easy.

All Putin has to do is hold up a cross, and he wins.

WHEATIE – OUR WARRIOR ANGEL

by Duchess01


Please forgive us, Wheatie, we did not know
That you had left us with armor in tow
We had no idea with what you dealt
We did not know the pain you felt
And now we can only imagine
With you what really did happen
Cause rarely did you complain 
And/or share your personal pain
Of one thing we are most certain
You are flying high behind the curtain
Watching over us above the crowds
Our Warrior Angel above the clouds
Thank You, Wheatie, for caring for us
While you were here among the fuss
We miss you dear you have no idea
Since time began in the pangaea
With you there was no time
In your wisdom you would chime
To clarify and magnify
The what where how and why
We did not question when you left
We were not slightly bereft
But over time we wondered why
You did not at least stop by
Now we know where you have gone
With the break of this new dawn
We could be angry but are not
Tho with an arrow we’ve been shot
Rest peacefully Warrior Angel dear
Send us a sign that you are near
A butterfly a flower a kiss of rain
From your love do not refrain
God sends Angels to watch over us
And now we have an Angel Plus
A Warrior Angel of Magnificence
From today and forward hence

Happy New Year, Wheatie!


The Rules

TL;DR –

Wheatie’s Rules:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.


MINOR CHANGE NUMBER 1

Never talk about committing violence in a reply to Wolf or in response to anything Wolf has said, or you may get put into moderation so that your comments can be screened. This is ONLY because DHS is now playing door-knock Gestapo with people who have spoken at school board meetings, made public comments, etc. DHS regime jackboots are knocking on doors of school board mama bears and stupidly insinuating potential violence from things people say or don’t say on social media. A guy in Ohio pointed his FINGER at the school board, and they went after him, armed with pictures of the pointing, and screen captures of online comments. Yeah.

SO – give the Nazis ZERO ammo. Keep any mention of violence, even joking, away from Wolf, so that he doesn’t have to “explain” humor to humorless jackboots who pretend not to know things.

As for discussion of “violent humor” among yourselves (e.g., “#TeamHeadsOnPikes”), just use whatever discretion you think is appropriate for yourselves. I will only put you in moderation if your comments create problems for ME or THIS SITE, but not if they only impact you.

YOU are responsible for your own comments, if they come knocking. YOUR choice. Just remember this…..

OTHER THAN THAT…….


The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.

Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.

Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.

SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]

We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.

Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.

In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.

We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).

We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.

If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.

We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.

In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”


A Moment of Prayer

Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.

Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.

US President Donald Trump(C) attends the National Prayer Breakfast at a hotel in Washington, DC on February 8, 2018. / AFP PHOTO / Mandel NGAN (Photo credit should read MANDEL NGAN/AFP via Getty Images)

You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.


Musical Interlude

In honor of dear Wheatie, we now present some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.

Don’t think much of pop music?

Try THIS ONE!

OK – how about something for the New Year?

OK, maybe more along that line…..

OK – how about THIS from last night?

AND what the heck – YouTube just threw this one into a list of Sheryl Crow songs, so let’s take their hint and throw in another BETHS video!

ENOUGH!


Call To Battle

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

We can speak the truth!

We can SING the truth!

We can Stand up for the truth!

We can MEME the truth!

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.

SO – give the Nazis ZERO ammo. Keep any mention of violence, even joking, away from Wolf, so that he doesn’t have to “explain” humor to humorless jackboots who pretend not to know things.

As for discussion of “violent humor” among yourselves (e.g., “#TeamHeadsOnPikes”), just use whatever discretion you think is appropriate for yourselves. I will only put you in moderation if your comments create problems for ME or THIS SITE, but not if they only impact you.

YOU are responsible for your own comments, if they come knocking. YOUR choice. Just remember this…..

OTHER THAN THAT…….


The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.

Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.

Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.

SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]

We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.

Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.

In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.

We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).

We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.

If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.

We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.

In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”

Musical Interlude

In honor of dear Wheatie, we now present some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.

Let’s try for some REAL variety today.

This almost isn’t music, but SO appropriate!

Get ready for the SUMMER SOLSTICE. It’s coming!

How about a child’s recital that just went up a few hours before I wrote this?

Swinging quickly to the opposite, some very current NEO-PUNK.

Some more Beths, just because I needed a fix!

Check out the interesting New Zealand plants and animals.

But now let’s get into some music history, which you may want to skip over, right into the subject thereof, and then come back. But if you want to nerd out first, here you go!

And here it is. Succumb to the TRUMP GRAVITY!!! ENJOY THE RIDE!!!


Call To Battle

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

Yeah, it gets worse…..

I said abound…..

And I said ABOUND!

Oh, heck – let’s go for FOOL’S GOLD!


We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

We can speak the truth about politicians!

We can speak the truth about the vaccines!

We can ask impertinent questions, and seek answers!

We can shine sunlight into the shadows!

We can fight back against the satanic forces running the world.

We can be the hands of God every single day.


Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.


Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Day Year Week:


fluorescence

noun

  • The emission of electromagnetic radiation, especially of visible light, stimulated in a substance by the absorption of incident radiation and persisting only as long as the stimulating radiation is continued.
  • The property of emitting such radiation.
  • The radiation so emitted.

to be distinguished from:

phosphorescence

noun

  • Persistent emission of light following exposure to and removal of incident radiation.
  • Emission of light without appreciable heat, as from chemiluminescence of phosphorus or bioluminescence of living organisms.
  • The state or character of being phosphorescent; the property which certain bodies possess of becoming luminous without undergoing combustion.

both being cases of a larger class of emissions known as:

luminescence

noun

  • The emission of light that does not derive energy from the temperature of the emitting body, as in phosphorescence, fluorescence, and bioluminescence. Luminescence is caused by chemical, biochemical, or crystallographic changes, the motions of subatomic particles, or radiation-induced excitation of an atomic system.
  • The light so emitted.

of which there is a subset:

chemiluminescence

noun

  • Emission of light as a result of a chemical reaction.
  • Luminescence associated with chemical changes in the luminous substance and probably due to those changes. See luminescence.
  • Chemically caused luminescence, including bioluminescence.

Used in an abstract:

We have been able to produce chemiluminescence in firefly luciferin without utilizing the enzyme luciferase. Following the analogous mechanism of the chemiluminescence of luminol in the organic solvent dimethyl sulfoxide, we have prepared synthetically the methyl ester of luciferin, the phosphate ester of luciferin and luciferyl adenylate by condensation in dimethyl sulfoxide with Khorana’s reagent, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and diazomethane, phosphoric acid, and adenylic acid respectively. These compounds in dimethyl sulfoxide in the presence of base emit a bright chemiluminescence. Like in vitro enzymatic bioluminescence, the luciferyl adenylate chemiluminescence emission spectrum is dependent upon pH.

WHEATIE – OUR WARRIOR ANGEL

by Duchess01


Please forgive us, Wheatie, we did not know
That you had left us with armor in tow
We had no idea with what you dealt
We did not know the pain you felt
And now we can only imagine
With you what really did happen
Cause rarely did you complain 
And/or share your personal pain
Of one thing we are most certain
You are flying high behind the curtain
Watching over us above the crowds
Our Warrior Angel above the clouds
Thank You, Wheatie, for caring for us
While you were here among the fuss
We miss you dear you have no idea
Since time began in the pangaea
With you there was no time
In your wisdom you would chime
To clarify and magnify
The what where how and why
We did not question when you left
We were not slightly bereft
But over time we wondered why
You did not at least stop by
Now we know where you have gone
With the break of this new dawn
We could be angry but are not
Tho with an arrow we’ve been shot
Rest peacefully Warrior Angel dear
Send us a sign that you are near
A butterfly a flower a kiss of rain
From your love do not refrain
God sends Angels to watch over us
And now we have an Angel Plus
A Warrior Angel of Magnificence
From today and forward hence

The Rules

(You are feeling sleepy. You want to dream about the rules. Your eyelids are getting heavy.)

TL;DR –

Wheatie’s Rules:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.


MINOR CHANGE NUMBER 1

Never talk about committing violence in a reply to Wolf or in response to anything Wolf has said, or you may get put into moderation so that your comments can be screened. This is ONLY because DHS is now playing door-knock Gestapo with people who have spoken at school board meetings, made public comments, etc. DHS regime jackboots are knocking on doors of school board mama bears and stupidly insinuating potential violence from things people say or don’t say on social media. A guy in Ohio pointed his FINGER at the school board, and they went after him, armed with pictures of the pointing, and screen captures of online comments. Yeah.

SO – give the Nazis ZERO ammo. Keep any mention of violence, even joking, away from Wolf, so that he doesn’t have to “explain” humor to humorless jackboots who pretend not to know things.

Musical Interlude

In honor of dear Wheatie, we now present some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.

OK – let’s start with a song for Hanukkah! Yeah, it’s PBS. Yeah, it’s the woke military. Yeah, it’s a bit cringe. But it’s still somehow enjoyable. Some good voices. Have a listen.

Now, how about some “steampunk” Christmas music? This whole video contains several pieces, but I’ve started on a good one late in the video. Can you catch the X Files moments? Stay tuned for the fascinating techno-archaic artsy version of Silent Night afterwards.

OK – how about some Country Christmas Music by the great Loretta Lynn? YEE-HAH! I love it!

Well, that’s all fine, but when I heard this stuff by Celtic Woman, I just had to finish with some traditional Christmas carols! Enjoy!


Call To Battle

“KABOOM!”

Lefty’s View of WWII, by Wild Bill

OK, straight up apologies, Dear Q-Treepers & Friends, for this likely stream of consciousness post very loosely inspired from our dear Daughn’s nostalgic posts. This is going to veer about in personal family history domains so is meant as a bit of a slice of Americana…

Detroit’s skyline as viewed from the Ambassador Bridge

Grandpa S. came to stay with us at some point for an extended stay while I still lived in my parents’ home. I think it was after my grandma had died but before I went away to college. Grandpa had been sick and so lived with us for a season as he regained his health & his strength. There were times he’d watch Price is Right with my brothers & I & encourage us to make guesses on the various games, which we all thoroughly enjoyed.

Grandpa was a bit of a gruff man having grown up in the Motor City & having a Northwoods lumberjack for a father. He was a self-made man of limited education, never having finished high school. An avid outdoorsman and good with his hands he knew how to work hard and he was respected and even loved by many people from practically all walks of life. He had deep practical wisdom & was even flexible in his lifestyle deciding to take up new hobbies as a widower, like candle AND candy making. He had a zest for life & perpetual twinkle in his eye!

Ty Cobb in 1913 in Detroit, the era when he let Grandpa & other kids into the ballpark by the back fence to watch the games for free!

Well one day while he was staying with us the phone rang unexpectedly. Being the oldest kid it fell to me to answer the call, as my parents weren’t home at the time. Some gravelly male voice on the other end of the phone was looking for a “Lefty” & I was concerned. The only “lefty” I could imagine would be some fictional gangster or ne’er-do-well. Anyway with tremulous voice I mentioned to Grandpa that someone was looking for “Lefty”. He snatched the phone from my hand & bellowed out in his own testosterone truncated tongue “Lefty here!” I was beyond flabbergasted, My Grandpa Was Lefty!!!

Obviously this was a pretty basic nickname for a man who was left-handed, especially growing up in an era when being left-handed was a “sinister” condition. Both he, my dad’s dad, AND my mom’s mom, were left-handed & suffered the indignities that went along with being different & the punishments typically meted out for errant usage of the “wrong” hand in those bygone days. Both of these grandparents had less than beautiful handwriting but were surely more ambidextrous than most. My youngest brother is also blessed with this left-handedness & it definitely contributed to some of his sporting successes, especially his ability to be a switch-hitter on his high-school baseball team! I think he was also more competent with both feet as a soccer player than were most teammates too.

Grandpa had been a pretty poor student during his formal education. In fact, after his death, when my parents were going through his things they discovered a lone report card saved from nearly 8 decades before. Apparently this “all S” card was the best he ever did. That was based on a grading system of U=Unsatisfactory, S=Satisfactory, & E=Excellent, I believe. Basically grandpa got the equivalent of an all-C, straight average report card & that was the treasure of the ages. How easily did the high marks of so many in our family line become blasé. We didn’t really understand what it was to suffer ridicule for poor marks, well most of us didn’t…

My dad is going over my post with me & said that on Grandpa’s report card there were 12 things to be graded on per marking. In the 1st card marking he got 4 S’s & the rest U’s. 2nd marking was 8 or 9 S’s the rest U’s. The final card marking he got all 12 S’s. My grandpa wrote on that report card “Best report card I ever had” & saved it all those years. Neither my dad nor his sister knew about that card before grandpa’s death.

Not Grandpa’s report card, but one from the era when he first attended school

Grandpa did throw things away, including stock certificates for companies that went belly up during the Depression, per my dad. He provided for his family during his lifetime & had less than $1,000 to his name when he died…& a new car that he called “my second to last car”. My brother got that late ’80’s Tempo after Grandpa’s passing.

Now according to my dad his dad had one of his grade school teachers as a regular customer at his gas station & garage in the heart of Detroit. Some three decades after she taught him she would berate him with “see I knew you’d never amount to anything” when she came to fill up or get some car service from him or his employees. Imagine being dogged like that as a self-made business man, yet Grandpa didn’t stint on the service in spite of the disrespect.

In fact dad is quite sure that Grandpa accepted Scrip during the war years, and my other grandpa, being a teacher, was paid in scrip too. It is quite likely that Grandpa S’s cruel elementary teacher paid in scrip AND much of that payment never was converted to Actual Money (I don’t know all the social reasons for that) so Grandpa took care of that teacher’s material needs even as she maligned his interpersonal & self-esteem ones. He truly was the bigger man.

Not my Grandpa’s gas station, but his brand in his era

When looking for possible images of Grandpa’s old Sunoco gas station at Junction & Toledo in Detroit I ran across this nostalgic discussion of old Detroit area gas stations.

https://www.atdetroit.net/forum/messages/6790/93948.html?1226175627

During the Second World War, at some point rationing was on. This meant that even in the Motor City it was hard to get what one needed to maintain functional transportation for the masses. Dad said that Grandpa had an old vulcanizing machine, that could be used to patch tires, and that his dad practically single-handedly kept Detroit on wheels! If he could have brought that machine with him to Northern Michigan when he retired it should have ended up in a museum, how significant was it’s contribution to keeping Detroit moving!

1945 Ration Book from the region, this example from Illinois

Speaking of Northern Michigan let’s segue a bit. My Grandpa’s dad had grown into manhood in the Northern Michigan lumbering industry, though he himself was a mid-Michigan farm boy. He left home, possibly even before his teen years to work in lumbering. He drove the horse-drawn wagons, worked as a lumberjack, and later was some type of foreman.

The company he worked for was owned by a Mr. Lowrey and at one point Lowrey’s son made his way into the woods to get his lumbering chops with the working guys. Apparently the lumberjacks were a pretty rough group of customers & Great-Grandpa took the boss’s son under his wing, showed him the ropes, AND protected him from the brutish thugs. This was noticed by the boss so later on when operations were moved South into Detroit Great-Grandpa was invited to come along and manage the lumber yard. That’s what he did for the rest of his working life. AND that is how that side of my family came to Detroit, right about 1900!

Logging in Michigan, 1890’s, when my Great Grandpa was still working in the Northern Michigan woods

Apparently Great Grandpa S. was a pretty tough customer too. He was tall, over 6 feet, with a fairly slender build. Even so, he was incredibly strong. One time Grandpa, as a young man, or even teen, had occasion to do some work at his dad’s lumber yard. There were train cars to be loaded or unloaded of 50 pound bags of cement, I believe. Grandpa would carry a bag in each hand & fling them in a smooth motion up to stack even over his head. Dad said that his father had very strong hands & even used to play handball at the Y in Detroit. Anyway G observed GG breaking up a fight amongst some unrulies in the lumber yard. When they wouldn’t stop the fight Great Grandpa stepped in & with One Blow Each felled each man. My grandpa was in shock that his dad could or would do that, this was someone not to mess around with!

Ironically my dad & his friends also experienced Grandpa’s physical & character strength for themselves. There was a time in their teen years that dad & his buddies took out the family car joy riding, over 50 miles of driving without ever leaving the Detroit city limits. Apparently Dad didn’t think to put more gas in the car so the next day as Grandpa was headed into work at His gas station, he ran out of gas. Grandpa somehow got a hold of Dad’s buddy & lifted him one handed off the floor & stuck him to the wall. What happened to Dad during that timeframe has always been rather murkily glossed over. I know my dad inherited this skill set for I once witnessed him lift up one of my brother’s cocky little friends up off the floor & stick him to the wall, though he used 2 hands in this surprising intervention on the now more subdued teen!

So we’ve had Michigan’s North Woods in our blood for a number of generations. Now fortunately my Grandpa S. married my grandma, the daughter of a railroad engineer–both of her parents were children of immigrants from the British Isles. Grandma’s dad had a fairly cushy job that he’d worked into on the Michigan Central Railroad. One of the perks of working for the railroad was getting the family to ride the rails, for free, I believe. Grandma’s family used to regularly travel Up North and enjoy Summer vacations in Michigan’s beautiful North Country, far from their native Detroit.

Historic Arbutus Beach, on Otsego Lake, MI in the era when my grandma’s family vacationed there

Eventually Grandma’s parents settled on a small community in Gaylord and bought a Cottage, being the first such building in the newly platted resort community of Arbutus Beach, along the beautiful sandy shore of Otsego Lake. Nearly all of Grandma’s siblings and many cousins ultimately obtained cottages in that community. My grandparents married in the late 1920’s and somehow acquired one of the existing Cottages in Arbutus Beach, as its second owners. My dad & his sister, along with their mother, spent virtually Every Summer of their childhood in that Northern Michigan paradise. Surrounded by family & friends they’d leave Detroit the day after school let out & only head home the day before school started in the Fall. Grandpa would join them for both journeys, I think because there was only one car. Grandma & the kids either caught the train to/from town or perhaps bummed rides from relatives with transportation.

How my great grandparents moved their cottage to Arbutus Beach, details here: https://specialconnections.wordpress.com/2017/06/29/josiahs-story-about-the-4th-of-july/

Now that same Cottage ended up becoming my grandparents’ retirement home, somewhat unexpectedly. Up until the Race Riot era of the late ’60’s both sets of my grandparents expected to live in their Detroit homes for the remainder of their natural lives. However during that season of social upheaval block-busting real estate agents put the pressure on & ultimately both sets of grandparents winterized Summer cottages to become their then retirement homes.

The simpler times of my dad’s youth saw Otsego Lake rarely shackled, as it is now, by excessive docks or boats

The Gaylord Cottage would figure largely in my own life too. When my new husband & I decided to come to Michigan–we had met & married in Oklahoma, though I was a child of the Motor City–we ended up living temporarily in The Cottage that was now in my parents’ possession after Grandpa’s death about a half decade previously. Michael & I lived in The Cottage as newly weds AND as new parents. Our first child, Nathaniel was born while we lived in The Cottage (his height is marked on the 4 generation height-recording doorjambs between the dining & living rooms at just One Day Old!) & was gifted the nickname “The Jack-Pine Savage” because of this northern naissance. In fact I believe our son is the Only family member in 6 generations of our extended family associated with this Northern Michigan community who was born in Gaylord, though several have died there. Though our twins were born while we still lived in that community–we had bought our own house in town by that time–they were in fact born downstate because of the high-risk nature of that pregnancy & their anticipated medical needs…

If you’d like to see a Newspaper article from back when Michael & I and the Boys lived in Gaylord in the 1990’s check it out here, on pages 1, 4, & 5:

http://207.74.70.101:8080/docushare/dsweb/Get/Document-6631/1996-11-07%20Thu%20Building%20Familes.pdf

Anyway, at one point when Michael & I were moving into The Cottage we boxed up some things to make room for some of our belongings. One day we were going through some old kids books and discovered some doodlings & writings by my dad. Apparently Dad had fancied himself some type of cowboy AND given himself the moniker Wild Bill! I absolutely Loved It!!!

Whenever watching that perennial classic A Christmas Story, I can imagine my dad as a lad in the 1940’s into the ’50’s with his admiration for all things cowboy & his gun prowess. I’m pretty sure that he was Up North when practicing targeting some strategic mushrooms on top of a log. However, unlike Steve’s important Saturday reminders, he forgot to notice what was Behind his target. So successfully hitting mushrooms with his BB gun sometimes meant tagging one of his playmates inadvertently as the projectiles maintained their forward trajectory. Simpler times…

Boy with gun in the 1950’s, not my dad but similar to his era

It’s impossible to anticipate what type of gems one might unearth in an old family home! Years ago there was a major garage cleaning undertaken by 3 generations of the family. At one point an old scorched ironing board cover, complete with it’s “scorchless” packaging was unearthed. After much conversation it was returned to the archeological dig to be unearthed years, or perhaps generations from now, so the joy & consternation at our family ways can continue!

Saving that old ironing board cover reminded Dad about his mom’s dad, the railroad engineer. Apparently Great-Grandpa T. used to collect stamps. He would meticulously organize them into small piles and tie them together with small pieces of string & place them strategically in old cigar boxes. Well he kept some container labeled “String Too Short To Save” for this stamp-corralling work, apparently because that was about all such short lengths of string were good for! If you knew how much my packratedness AND that of some other family members has tormented those who are more comfortable with much less physical (& other) baggage, you would recognized that “String Too Short To Save” isn’t always a badge of honor here!

Several books had similar titles, so this metaphor goes well beyond just our family perspective & experience–yikes!

So back to Lefty AND World War II. Dad & his sister have some direct memories of the war years, though they were still Very Young when it ended. Apparently they kept a pail of pure sand in the attic in case the house were ever bombed or hit with incendiary devices. They employed blackout curtains. Grandpa was sometimes involved in some type of neighborhood patrol, well Dad says that actually the next-door neighbor Mr. Bush was the Warden, who’d knock on your door if any light showed through the blackout curtains. They sounded an air raid siren for a drill in getting into blackout conditions & the Warden would patrol the neighborhood looking for any errant lights during that drill. Ration Books were in play & plenty of food was hard to get. Street Signs were removed to prevent the enemy, should he land on our shores, from easily navigating these foreign roads. And of course rationing meant deprivations in many arenas.

One place of deprivation was in the use of gasoline. Even Grandpa, who owned his own gas station business, could not get extra gasoline. That meant that when hunting season rolled around he wouldn’t be able to head Up North to the Hunting Shack to do the traditional annual deer hunting pilgrimage, or wouldn’t he? Actually he had some cousins who were farmers and apparently the government wasn’t rationing their access to gas in Any Way. So some of these cousins arranged to leave cans of gas strategically along the side of the road, hidden in the ditch, so Grandpa could gas up sufficiently to make it to his war-time limited hunting camp!

teaser historic post card from Luzerne, MI our guys rarely see this many deer in the region nowadays

By the way, how The Shack came into the family is a bit of an interesting tale too. Grandpa, his cousin, uncle, & some friends used to hunt the state or federal lands adjacent to a farmer’s land Up North. They’d done this for some years in a remote area in Oscoda County near the Very Small Town of Luzerne. Many times these hunters had begged the farmer to sell them a small amount of land so they could put up more permanent hunting camps than their tent-based camps of yesteryear. One time they invited the farmer to join them for a meal in the large dining tent. Their camp stove gave off a spark that ignited that tent AND it completely burned before they could un-stake all the ropes & drop the canvas to the ground. The farmer decided it was no way to live so relented & sold them One Acre, which was subdivided into 2 plots & 2 hunting shacks were built there, both still standing.

The shack across the street used to have a custom-made wood burned sign (recently stolen) claiming “Piscopalian Valley”, which is what our original hunters used to call the area since the piss would go in the pail before the hunting shacks AND outhouses were put in. In fact Grandpa’s uncle Will was known as “the Mayor of Piscopalian Valley” since he would make the rounds of the many nearby hunting camps AND the “blue horse trail” camp (the blue horse trail marks an equestrian path that traverses the fingers of Michigan’s Mitten–no NOT that Mitt!–from Lake Michigan to Lake Huron and makes navigating “our” hunting zone much more interesting) & pick up all the news of the hunt & the community–what a rich history abounded there & many tales live on!

Blue Horse Trail near Luzerne passes through the family hunting grounds

Speaking of news AND WWII the way Lefty learned about the end of the war was pretty amazing. Now I don’t ever recall hearing my grandpa tell this story, but Wild Bill has good recall of it. Apparently as The War was waning Grandpa went on an extended hunting or fishing adventure in the wilds of Canada, dad said that it was a fishing trip. He was walking along a portage trail in the woods & came across a carving on a tree trunk declaring the date & time of the end of the war in Europe AND he ran across this within two hours of someone carving it, literally out in the middle of nowhere! What an amazing world!

If only that WWII was the war to end all wars & love reigned supreme

Boy were our forbears hearty & blessed people. We are blessed to carry their blood in our veins & some of their quirkiness in our behaviors & of course some of their personality & physical traits in our beings, as they continue to live on, in a manner of speaking, in & through us.

From C.S. Lewis in his Chronicles of Narnia, as recounted here: https://silo.pub/pocket-companion-to-narnia-a-guide-to-the-magical-world-of-cs-lewis.html. HONOR — To seek honor in obedience and to behave honorably may be said to be one definition of a true Narnian. In PC [Prince Caspian]15, Caspian is ashamed that he comes of such a dishonorable (Telmarine) lineage. Aslan replies, “You come of the Lord Adam and Lady Eve. And that is both honor enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar and shame enough to bow the heads and shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth. Be content.”

Veteran’s Day Addendum

Honoring our warriors, especially on Veteran’s Day!

We all owe so much to the many who have made tremendous sacrifices to fight for & ensure ongoing degrees of freedom for their fellow man. The complexity of the tapestry of lives, lifestyles, & social & family dynamics can never fully be done justice. So many different ways our warriors & their families & friends have laid down their lives for the family of man. Thank you!

I come from a family without direct modern experience in military service & warfare. However I know of numerous serviceman in the extended family who answered the call. This listing is to honor their service & sacrifice & that of so many others who have stood in the gap on freedom’s and our nation’s behalf.

  • Orringh Stoddard, Captain Massachusetts Line, Revolutionary War
  • Husband Michael’s Hagerman ancestor, United Empire Loyalist
  • Friedrich Bluemle, Mom’s birth great grandfather, compulsory German military service before immigrating to America mid 1800’s
  • Michael’s relations, both sides service Civil War, fractured family & fractured nation
  • William E. Curren, US Army Signal Corp, late 1800’s
  • Clarence E. Curren, Virginia Ship Building Co., WWI Navy
  • Patrick L., Husband’s father’s uncle, WWII Nave Sea Bee, construction battalion
  • Verner R. Shoup, Hubby’s grandfather & son of CO governor Oliver H. Shoup, WWI Army
  • David O. M., Mom’s birth grandfather, WWI Army
  • Robert D. M., Mom’s birth father, WWII Marine, action in Tarawa & beyond
  • Avis B. B., Mom’s birth mother, WAC WWII, service in Alaska & beyond
  • Thurman T., Grandma’s brother, WWII, machinist, Manhattan Project
  • Hugh T., Grandma’s brother-in-law, WWII Army medical doctor
  • Maynard K., Mom’s brother, Korea-era Naval service, injured medical discharge
  • Zachary S., my nephew, Marine in modern service
My ancestor Orringh Stoddard’s letter February 3, 1780 preserved in George Washington’s papers, https://www.loc.gov/resource/mgw4.064_0179_0180/

May the Lord continue to equip us all with the tools we need to keep fighting the good fight!

Vignette of my Uncle Hugh’s military service, from his obituary “Dr. Thompson was a US veteran, serving with the US Medical Corps for three and a half years. He was captain of the 32nd Field Hospital in Italy. After VE Day, he was sent to the Philippines and Japan.” He moved his wife & kids into their Northern Michigan cottage while he was overseas during WWII, being concerned for their safety had they remained in their Detroit home during his extended absence. Service & Sacrifice!

The [Q+14]th of October, 2022

A.K.A., Halloween!

(Note sneaky use of positive Biblical imagery for Halloween!)


This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And indeed, it’s Monday…again.

But we WILL get through it!

We will (AND I REPEAT) let our light shine upon darkness!

We will put on our dancing shoes…..

And have time for some thrills!

WHEATIE – OUR WARRIOR ANGEL

by Duchess01


Please forgive us, Wheatie, we did not know
That you had left us with armor in tow
We had no idea with what you dealt
We did not know the pain you felt
And now we can only imagine
With you what really did happen
Cause rarely did you complain 
And/or share your personal pain
Of one thing we are most certain
You are flying high behind the curtain
Watching over us above the crowds
Our Warrior Angel above the clouds
Thank You, Wheatie, for caring for us
While you were here among the fuss
We miss you dear you have no idea
Since time began in the pangaea
With you there was no time
In your wisdom you would chime
To clarify and magnify
The what where how and why
We did not question when you left
We were not slightly bereft
But over time we wondered why
You did not at least stop by
Now we know where you have gone
With the break of this new dawn
We could be angry but are not
Tho with an arrow we’ve been shot
Rest peacefully Warrior Angel dear
Send us a sign that you are near
A butterfly a flower a kiss of rain
From your love do not refrain
God sends Angels to watch over us
And now we have an Angel Plus
A Warrior Angel of Magnificence
From today and forward hence

The Rules

TL;DR –

Wheatie’s Rules:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.

The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.

Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.

Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.

SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]

We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.

Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.

In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.

We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).

We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.

If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.

We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.

In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”


A Moment of Prayer

Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.

Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.

You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.


Musical Interlude

In honor of dear Wheatie, we now present some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.

This is gonna be random – VERY random.

Here is what I’m listening to RIGHT NOW. I love this cover version even better than the original. Same with SEVERAL of these weird SuSE covers.

And now, also thanks to Cthulhu, I’ve got a bunch of PAMPERED MOOSE videos showing up in my YouTube!

Whoops! Not that one!

POMPLAMOOSE has largely replace THE BETHS, but not completely.

So is there a musical group called The Wheaties? Almost!

I have to ask – does YouTube put anything totally unpredictable into my feed? Well, there was this video, but even this was probably based on an earlier video of Stevie Nicks that I watched.

But let’s end with some EPIC HALLOWEEN MUSIC.

Kinda weird, but kinda enjoyable.

https://youtu.be/VZAvSgehLts

And if that’s wasn’t enough, here are three more hours!

https://youtu.be/w1juukbzfRU

We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.

In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”


A Moment of Prayer

Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.

Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.

You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.


Musical Interlude

In the fashion of posts by our dearly departed sister Wheatie, let’s have some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.

First, for reasons not made clear, except to the evildoers, this one is in honor of my friend who was murdered by the deep state, using their WICKED JAB.

Maybe this one, too.

But let’s finish with some EPIC MUSIC in Wheatie’s style!


Call To Battle

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

BEGONE, SHAGGY!!!

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.

Dear KMAG: 20220905 Joe Biden Didn’t Win ❀ Open Topic

Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President:

AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.


This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).

And indeed, it’s Monday…again.

But we WILL get through it!

You can trust Wheatie on that one!

And we will have fun doing it, too!

Oh, yeah, baby!


Dedication

WHEATIE – OUR WARRIOR ANGEL

by Duchess01


Please forgive us, Wheatie, we did not know
That you had left us with armor in tow
We had no idea with what you dealt
We did not know the pain you felt
And now we can only imagine
With you what really did happen
Cause rarely did you complain 
And/or share your personal pain
Of one thing we are most certain
You are flying high behind the curtain
Watching over us above the crowds
Our Warrior Angel above the clouds
Thank You, Wheatie, for caring for us
While you were here among the fuss
We miss you dear you have no idea
Since time began in the pangaea
With you there was no time
In your wisdom you would chime
To clarify and magnify
The what where how and why
We did not question when you left
We were not slightly bereft
But over time we wondered why
You did not at least stop by
Now we know where you have gone
With the break of this new dawn
We could be angry but are not
Tho with an arrow we’ve been shot
Rest peacefully Warrior Angel dear
Send us a sign that you are near
A butterfly a flower a kiss of rain
From your love do not refrain
God sends Angels to watch over us
And now we have an Angel Plus
A Warrior Angel of Magnificence
From today and forward hence

The Rules

TL;DR –

Wheatie’s Rules:

  1. No food fights.
  2. No running with scissors.
  3. If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.

Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.

The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.

Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.

Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.

SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]

We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.

Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.

In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”

That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.

We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).

We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.

If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.

Musical Interlude

In the fashion of posts by our dearly departed sister Wheatie, let’s have some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.

This time, a “country pop” song that I completely missed – from an artist that I completely missed, too – Lucy Hale.

Easily listenable – or “easy listening” – your call!

Unfortunately, this gal appears to have been, more recently, “consumed” as an actress in cultural Marxist movies, which I will not show you, but you can imagine.

Pure Hollyweird “evil-porn”.

Better to remember her with a video like this one!


Call To Battle

Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.

Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.

We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.

Looks like the historically blind WEF-grade historian Jon Meacham needs a better soundtrack to go with his wonderful speech.

Here ya go, bro!

Word to the wise. Never defend Nazis, and never defend the defenders of Nazis!

Just remember that THEIR FREE SPEECH is YOUR FREE SPEECH.

Idiots.

Joe Biden didn’t win.

And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.


Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Day Year Week:

brisance

noun

the shattering effect of the energy released in an explosion.

the shattering capability of a high explosive, determined mainly by its detonation pressure.

Etymology:

The term can be traced from the French verb “briser” (to break or shatter) ultimately derived from the Celtic word “brissim” (to break).

Related adjective – brisant

having a shattering effect.

Used in a sentence:

RDX (also known as hexogen) is stable in storage and is considered one of the most energetic and brisant of the military high explosives.

Relationship to ME 262 Aircraft (LINK):

Eventually, German pilots developed new tactics to counter Allied bombers. Me 262s, equipped with up to 24 unguided folding-fin R4M rockets—12 in each of two underwing racks, outboard of the engine nacelles—approached from the side of a bomber formation, where their silhouettes were widest and while still out of range of the bombers’ machine guns, fired a salvo of rockets with strongly brisant Hexogen-filled warheads, the same explosive in the shells fired by the Me 262A’s MK 108 cannon. One or two of these rockets could shoot down even the famously rugged Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress, from the “metal-shattering” brisant effect of the fast-flying rocket’s 520 g (18 oz) explosive warhead. The much bigger BR 21 large-calibre rockets, fired from their tubular launchers under the nose of the Me 262A (one either side of the nosewheel well) were only as fast as MK 108 rounds.

Though this broadside-attack tactic was effective, it came too late to have a real effect on the war and only small numbers of Me 262s were equipped with the rocket packs; most were Me 262A-1a models, of Jagdgeschwader 7. This method of attacking bombers became the standard and mass deployment of Ruhrstahl X-4 guided missiles was cancelled. Some nicknamed this tactic the Luftwaffe’s Wolf Pack, as the fighters often made runs in groups of two or three, fired their rockets, then returned to base. On 1 September 1944, USAAF General Carl Spaatz expressed the fear that if greater numbers of German jets appeared, they could inflict losses heavy enough to force cancellation of the Allied bombing offensive by daylight.
