what have I got in my pocket?

Come What May Come What May Now ever since 2020 I've been paying extra special attention to the date of May 3rd (1700 GMT) because that was the date when I first saw the shape of things to come. I can't believe I was the only one paying attention to life , the universe and everything on that day since the signs were clearly there that something BIG was going to happen. The BBC played a very big part in my perception of these particular events which means they were deliberately broadcasting clues as information that was meant to be heard and therefore understood by those with ears to hear. And that means that there was a conspiracy at work long before I finally joined the game. Anyway, this year on the fourth anniversary I half expected to hear some more earth shattering news that could be interepretted as being a sign that things were still running pretty much on (or rather off!) course since the science of planetary level events must have a timescale that is measured not in mo

Today is Eid, a VERY important day for Palestinians and today there has also seen a rather big change in Isreali tactics in Gaza. After bringing up the subject of Ramada being the time too be squeezing the southern city until it squeaked himself, Nutty has clearly failed to deliver on his words since the global opposition has finally crawled into a position against him and said No. The USA support for backing any Israel excuses is now swinging against them, too and so instead of marching into genocide the Israeli army has instead been stood down and sent home for a holiday. Foreign aid to avert famine is now ~1 on the agenda with food aid links being strengthened and new hostage negotiations seem the most likely next step.Nutty himself also had 'Hernia surgery' and was temporarily taken 'off grid' for a few hours. which is true tinfoil for the real conspiracy theorists to chew over. Why was this date important? Because Eid is also rather coincidentally exactly six month

Leap Day 2024 has been as challenging as usual, especially where  cats are concerned. Hmmm ^oo^, so it will forever now be Poppy Day on Daffodil Day and back in the real world work is calling to me again, I suppose it is then time to write somethinghere  for posterity but sometimes its hard to get off your arse because the immediate future will remain the same with or without my input, this is a long range plan remember? And yet without it, how could I ever hope to change the shape of the world at all? I feel that tmuch his piece is pretty much unnecessary in the grand scheme of things, nothing that you cannot read about elsewhere if you go searching, it's just an update on the unfortunate shapes of the world with maybe a prediction or two for posterity... We have had a landslide up here which has bollixed my plans up. The wet weather responsible has taken us up to ten storms so far this season, equalling the current record albethat a very recent one. I actually have 11 storm names

Sevren/Severen The largest gap in the narrative in which to insert a piece of Fanfic would cover Kvothe's journey from Imre to Severen. Now! Severen itself is not shown on the original maps but on the new map in the10AE there is a 'notable city' in Vintas called Sevren, located midway between Renere and Tinuë. However, the difference in spelling here to the text is not to be ignored as a mistake, such an error seems very wrong on so many levels that in such an authorised edition the mapmakers got the name wrong accidentally. The only tinfoil that makes any sense to me about these two spelling differences is that the meaning of this cities name is taken from the original Eld Vintic and in that language the difference is between what is essentially two different places, one high and one low. In such an instance the difference may be indicated not by adding an additional word, but by altering the original spelling in a small way. Severen is the name of the upper city and Sevre

Act I Scene 1 The midddle of Newarre Cob. “It were blue I tell you, Blue! Graham: Now im not saying it weren't a bit blue at the beginning, but its nor blue now, is it, just normal fire colour like Cob: It lit up the sky like a beacon it did, then there were  another  bolt of lightning, only this one went UP, I swear it by the ever moving moon. And then it were just normal fire, the whole church went up in flames. I saw it all from Shep's porch where you had been sleeping off the drink, right... You reckon the priest was caught at home? Well he's not been seen and I can't imagine where else he would have been at that time o night He might have been looking in on the widow Creel, even priests get lonely If there are any bones, it'll be his. (Thought. Two skeletons later found!?) Hap came over from where he had been dousing the last of the fire. Iron wheel was just painted wood.?Far too many unexplained things going on around here of late, we cant just ignore them any

Perennial Mind Your Language Perial then, and despite the fame and fortune that goes with being the Mother of God, there are only a few tiny scraps available for us to work with when it comes to tracking her down. Trapis' rambling story must be taken as a vaguely accurate truth which does align Perial's name into the accepted Tehlin faith version of things somewhat. Marten calls upon Menda and Perial when he is praying to everything that is holy along with the holy names of Ordal and Andan, two of the angels we see written about in Nina's copy of the book of the path. And then there is that one line about our infamous Lady Perial and her hat. Calling on the Holy Name of God (Tehus antausa eha) is the classical thing to do if you find yourself in trouble with demons, (If one has say stolen your own hat during the Seven Days of High Mourning and you were calling upon some divine intervention from above), although Bast just laughs off this traditional line from the Old Tema wh
