The Age of Pan Has Dawned…

The age of Apollo is over…

…This is now the age of Pan…

I’ve retired Apollo [the machine that’s been giving me so much grief] to video game duties…

Curiously, since I moved Apollo to a different location, and ceased opening up web browsers to surf the web…it’s actually been behaving relatively well.

I don’t know if the seventh reboot finally “hit the right spot”, or maybe the problem has something to do with the machines ability to access the internet?

I know that Steam is starting up just fine…I’ve had no problems accessing My Singing Monsters…and I’ve had Fire Pro Wrestling booted up and running at least three times…It was working smooth every time…Though I did not have my recorder running at the same time…We’ll try that soon.

Apollo has developed an issue with accepting my password, however…It keeps rejecting until I’ve entered it six or seven times…I would turn the password off, or change it, but I’m not sure how that PC will respond to the change.

So…I’m going to see how long things hold out, and hope for the best.

Pan is working beautiful…I just need to install more software…some of which I need to locate the disk for…Others…well…gigs upon gigs of downloading…yay…or…boooo…

“Rocky” is going to sound a tiny bid different…It’s an old voice synthesizer…It’s settings are not metered…so, it’s difficult to get things exactly the same…It’s also going to take a long time to “program” its lexicon, so it knows how to pronounce various words.

I really dislike moving PCs…but I am confident I got nearly all of my blogging related files transferred over…That is good…I lost very little.

At present…I’m getting slow dial up speed from my ISP…and I’ve got a lot of piled up posts to publish…mostly still from December…I’m still stuck in December of last year…sorry…I’ll change the blog headers when I get around to it.

On an optimistic note…they’ve cleared out a path following the poles and internet lines…Which makes me suspect, they may be preparing to come through and actually start hooking this area up…before we hit the four year mark?…Who can say?…

I’m putting Pan to sleep for the night, and putting on a movie…I just need a break from all of this.

“They Got My Dick Pic!” — Alex Jones…


….

Date: January 02, 2024

01) LINK


“Everyone knows Alex Jones lost a nearly billion-dollar judgment for slandering the Sandy Hook families as crisis actors and telling his supporters to hound them. Except the story we’ve all heard may not exactly reflect the truth so much as a manufactured and frequently-repeated media narrative.

Jimmy talks to Jones about the Sandy Hook trial and the forces the case brought together in alignment against him.”

Do you believe him?…

…I don’t question whether the establishment conspired to expel him…It did…

…Alex Jones has a history, which has earned him such a fate…

…He really is the textbook scoundrel, for which we must stand up and defend his right to speak…in order to prove that we support free speech…or that free speech means anything at all.

Do I think he deserves this defense?…No…

…I think actual free speech is to precious, to ever be fumbling on it.

I stand for the principle…not the person.


“Apple & NATO Colluded To Bring Me Down!” – Alex Jones

“It’s not just the mainstream media and the legal system that’s after Alex Jones — it’s actually an international cabal that includes Apple CEO Tim Cook and powerful leaders in NATO looking to silence his voice.

Jimmy talks to Jones about how the Deep State is determined to take everything away from him, including his cat!”

Comic Book Movies Are OVER…

“The comic book movie craze is officially OVER, according to Variety. Can we go back to having nerd culture without trying to glam it up for the normies? Many superhero movies have flopped this year, most notably “The Marvels” and “The Flash.” Meanwhile, Godzilla Minus One stomped all over its Western competition. It’s almost like audiences are trying to tell us something…”

Abandoned – Nickelodeon Studios Florida…

“In 1990, in conjunction with the opening of Universal Studios Orlando, Nickelodeon Studios had officially opened to the public. But it’s purpose as the new headquarters for the Nickelodeon network, where all future shows like Double Dare, Kenan & Kel, Slime Time live and so many more would be filmed, was quickly becoming unprofitable. Despite it being a popular attraction within the theme park, the studios closed and were left completely abandoned. Join me today as I take a look at what happened to this deeply beloved studio/attraction, and what ultimately happened to it’s iconic facade.”

French Teachers Strike Over Safety After Muslim Backlash to Nude Art…

“In a small town near Paris, teachers at a school in Issou went on strike, voicing deep concerns for their safety after an incident involving the display of a 17th-century nude painting by Giuseppe Cesari. This unrest comes in the wake of several Islamist attacks on teachers in France, including the horrific beheading of Samuel Paty in 2020. The current situation in Issou escalated when a female teacher showed “Diana and Actaeon” to her class, leading some Muslim students to turn away, citing religious prohibitions against viewing such imagery. Misinformation and false accusations against the teacher quickly spread on social media, intensifying fears among the staff. Sophie Vénétitay, the general secretary of SNES, France’s leading teachers’ union, expressed the gravity of the situation, stating, “We know well that methods like that can lead to a tragedy. We saw it in the murder of Samuel Paty. Our colleagues feel threatened and in danger.” The strike highlights the growing tensions in French schools, where teachers face not only disciplinary issues but also threats to their personal safety in a climate of escalating religious and cultural conflicts.”
