Just sick

What sort of person spends creative time, a substantial amount of time trying to slide sick images into children's You tube films ? Here are  some examples of corrupted animation, but ive seen horribly photoshoped distorted faces elsewhere, inserted into children's You tube films. They are so horrific they scare  even me. I cant look at them. I can only magine how a child will feel in this circumstance ? I have a 7 year old and hope to god she doesnt stumble upon this kind of thing..but what can i do ?

Lets just stick to " STRONG IS BEAUTIFUL " ?

Well we've had Elle Golding training her hair to be strong...not sure how she does that, but she says its the same method she uses to strengthen her body... Nope, i cant work that one out either. It's strange how everything feminine  on TV adverts must now be linked to traditional masculine traits. Tonight's  advertising example however took things to a whole new extreme level promoting the slogan ( and I'm not making this up... )  FEARLESS ABOUT VAGINAL HEALTH. Any further comment ? Er, make that a NO !  Unless i am fearful bout the vagina ? ffs lets not go there...

Is Sedbergh in recession ?

The fact this car has been for sale since Christmas, and is still so proves that my local town is either in recession or has serious reservations about its future finances. A white BMW diesel hatch back at low mileage ,and a reasonable price tag should have sold within days of being advertised. It is an aspirational vehicle for someone to trade up to. It is not a brand new car, but it will require the average person to take out a loan when they trade in against it. It is a measuring tool that eliminates people wealthy enough to buy new, hence its lack of sale seems to suggest the average person is sitting tight and not splashing out on an image upgrade that is not essential. As i said earlier this car encapsulates upward mobility (or the image of it ) so popular in this town amongst ordinary working people. Its a lot to read into a car, but when you know your town and your cars i think i can make the leap. ?We shall see...

Creatures of the night ?

Since when have Jackdaws become nocturnally active ? Gone are the days when they were all roosting or asleep when venturing outside to check animals on the farm last thing at night. In fact they are all wide awake lining up sat on a gate as if expecting some great event. Like humans they are taking advantage of what was once down time. What they are gaining though im not so sure as all animal feed has been eaten by that hour and scavenging opportunities by then are none existent. Maybe the gatherings are social ? After hours style...lol

Toyota Corolla 2019 TV Advert - 30"





Its started already. The sneering at traditional cars, even classic cars and those with history. I mean why would you want to drive one of those when you could drive a hybrid piece of shit with a small fuel tank and inadequate battery range ? Useless to everyone...oh and due to the weight economy will be dismal too. No doubt the gullible public will suck it all up. After all who wants to " get left behind ? "

Gary Numan M E Wall E Music Video) YouTube

 


Now theres no one left to see
When theres no one left tonight
When theres only me...

This Gary Numan song reminds me that in the future, not to distant future, after my parents have passed and current neighbours have inevitably moved or died or just forgot to stay,  that there will only be me left here basically (  excluding wife end daughter god willing ). There is a strange excitement about the extremity of it all, and believe me it will be profound as total change from all you've known always is.
