At last the penny seems to have dropped, with nearly half of all us US voters seeing mail in voting, produced as part of the CCP virus conspiracy led to voter fraud. And conservatives are starting to realise that the elites hate white people. What took them so long?

Le Pen is being prosecuted for drawing attention to the dangers of the Islamic State. That would seem to imply that the French system supports the Islamic state wouldn’t it?

I wonder what the Washington swamp demons would have done if puppet Trump had not led the faithful lambs to the slaughter to Washington DC, for the embarrassing “oh Pence betrayed us, I would never have guessed, just go home farce”? Obviously, in a crowd of that size, infiltrated by antifa dressed up as Trump supporters, invading the Capitol building was a certainty. And just even though the Left and its antifa, who Biden bowed to, spend 2020 wrecking America, and still are, the otherwise peaceful protest, where an ex-service woman Trump supporter was executed, was conveniently defined as an insurrection. Well, Trump himself should have marched on the Capitol building, declaring martial law, but that is just a dream. If the roles were reversed, a Demon-crat president who had an election stolen would never had done a Trump. Now “violent extremists” are, well, anyone opposed to the present regime.

I have previously reviewed both Joseph Alton and Amy Alton, The Survival Medicine Handbook (2013) and Ralph Guardia, The Doomsday Book of Medicine, (2015), which are some of the few books concerned with collapse or survival medicine, a situation where literally medical help will not be on the way, where there are no hospitals and people need to take care of their medical needs themselves. Situations like this have arisen in South American countries undergoing economic collapsed, such as Venezuela, to some degree, and Cuba in the 1990s following the collapse of the USSR.

I picked up Overpower Pain, (2008), by Mitchell Yass from a second-hand book shop, and it is a John Steele kind of book. The interesting theme, is that much pain in the human body, re joints and soft tissue, arises from lack of strength, and/or strength imbalance, and lack of stretching/flexibility, producing a rigid body, prone to injury. Yass is a keen weight lifter, and he tackles various issues with weight training programs. How is all of this of relevance to an old lady like me?

I have just finished a good book by Scott Williams, Getting Out Alive, (2011), which is in the disaster survival genre. There are thirteen classic survival situations discussed, with case studies of real-life example. These range for abandoned in the Amazon /Basin, to trapped in snow and the desert, to being in a burning building, to a bear attack which almost kills one.

You can be sure that teachers, primarily Left wing voted for Beijing Biden. Thus, it will be natural to indoctrinate children the ways of the communist New World Order. Just thank Trump for this, surrendering the nation because we are the law and order party. Whose law, what party?

Even though I am a critic of multiculturalism, on this one I agree with the pollie who did not wear a tie. Why, if I was in parliament, I would not want to even wear pants, already entering senility, thus beating Donny Dunstan who famously wore pink hot pants to parliament, because he probably thought that he was hot. He was not.

It seems that the medical establishment are moving to the wearing of two masks. Surely one would have thought that one good mask would be enough, but no, if one is good, two are better. So why not fifty masks, or simply wrap 18 rolls of duct tape across one’s face?

For the record, I cover the below story about a website tracking critical race theory, you know, race does not exist, but for the purposes of punishment, and rewards, the white race must be punished, others given affirmative action, even though they are all social constructions. It is some academic version of that basic story. It has been in the universities since the 19650s in one shape or form. Simply have a look at the publications of the academics at any Australian university from sociology to psychology, and people will be amazed at the crap being shot out. James is right, we need to close these temples of doom down, but, we are the dispossessed majority, soon to be minority.

For all the young democrats who voted for Biden, especially dopey glazed-eyed whites, Biden plans to bring in foreign graduates, so enjoy being with us at the bottom of the wheelie bin of history, you deluded fools, as you are replaced too: this is the white apocalypse:

If Trump had the equivalent Russian connections he would have been roasted, and in fact was over the “Russia stole the 2016 election,” even after it was proven false. Yet, there is evidence of Chinese interreference in the 2020 election, and Biden is so connected to China, his first name for us critics, is Beijing Biden.

You have to hand it to old Billy at the Gates, he has his claws into every pie around the place. I sometimes buy a pie with “dead horse” from a nice bakery around the corner, and I have to check that Bill has not been in my pie. No, he has vaccines for that, and changing the weather. Yet, some from the environmental movement are getting nervous, as they should. What took them so long?

It was even recognised in Jesus’ time, that women do talk too much. I know this as a fact, being a woman, and spending most of my time around women, talking, or as men used to say, before being bashed down by the woke, “yakking.” But, if you are a man saying this time-honoured truth,  not to say that men are saints by any means, you will be cancelled in today’s cancel culture.

Many books contemplating the collapse neglect to think about medical aspects. This became somewhat relevant to ordinary people, with the Covid freak-out in 2020, and still continuing, with restrictions on hospital services, and security checking at even the local GP, that made one stay away unless it was vital. But, what about when there is no doctor, and help is not on the way?

One very important book for Australians is the famous Yates Garden Guide. I am sure that it is still in print, and I have the 42^nd edition from 2006.

Having started on these reviews, I had hoped to find the three pre-World War II Australian handyman books my father used to pour over on Saturday nights, while I sat next to him warming myself by the wood fire, rewarding comics. So long ago. And, alas, I cannot find those books, but they may still be with me, there is a build-up of a life time of unsorted material.

I did rescue from the silver fish, who have voracious appetites, some books that the mainstream Australian presses put out. The Complete Handyman: Home Repairs, Decorations and Construction, was published by the Advertiser in Adelaide, but there is no date listed. My guess is that it is from the late 1940s. Covered is woodwork, making things like bookshelves, dog kennels, tables, wardrobes and kitchen cabinets. That shows the age of the book, as most men could not do any of this, and just go out and buy it all. Likewise, for the lengthy sections on home plumbing, fixing burst pipes and faults in water taps, cleaning pipes and drains, and repairing roofs and gutters. That reminds me of one fellow I know, an engineering student, who before going to university, worked as a metal fabricator. His father had him try to fix a  box gutter, including covering the whole surface in a special rubber sealant, and the gutter still leaks, after 7 years of patchwork. He is now saving up for a new roof.

Here are two excellent back to basics books put together by a woman on homesteading: Abigail Gehring, The Homesteading Handbook, (Skyhorse, 2011), and her edited work, Back to Basics, (Skyhorse, 2014).  The beauty of these books, unlike many others in the genre, is that it does not presuppose that one necessarily has a rural property to retreat to, for many things can be done in one’s quarter acre block, if one is still lucky enough to have this. Thus, The Homesteading Handbook plunges right in to establishing a home garden, even if it is just plants in pots, but ideally there should be more space. Covered are basic plant requirements, what makes suitable soil, soil quality indicators, and how such soil quality can be improved, especially by composting and organic fertilisers, which are easy enough to get going. Vermicomposting uses worms to compost, and can be done even in one’s garage, or basement.

The Australian Self-Sufficiency Handbook, (Viking, 1992), edited by Keith and Irene Smith and Allan Gray, is getting old enough now to start to have yellowing pages, just like me. My copy was given to me, and my ex-wife, by her parents. The inside cover reads: “Merry Christmas John and Sue. What’s more “self-sufficient” than your very own copy?” I think the meaning here is that I was always borrowing their copy, so they got me one. But, soon after that the magic of divorce, the loss of my business, and I began the path of self-discovery that I am now on.

I have been reviewing largely American self-reliance and survivalist books, which mostly presuppose some sort of disaster scenario. But, most Australian books in the back to the land and alternative living scene, are more concerned with getting out of the rat race and getting some good old-fashioned country living back in lungs that have been inundated with city pollution, both physio-chemical, and spiritual.
