#I wish your tourism to skyrocket

THIS!! I didnt want to speak on behalf of Portugal since for some reason the news just doesnt talk abt our neighbors but holy shit. This!!
This is the bullshit southwestern Europeans have to put up with all summer long. But boo fucking hoo some tourist not being able to go get shitfaced and off themselves because its too hot out.
The other night it was 34C at 11pm in the center of Spain. The lowest temperature throughout the night was 30C. In the south they might've just as well had to sleep through 36+ temperatures, and with how shit is right now, between food prices skyrocketing electricity and gas also skyrocketing, do you think many can afford to have the AC on? No. We have to make do with a fan moving hot air.
We are not your fucking commodity, I wish we had never engaged in tourism as a viable form of long term economical stability, and its such a pity that we learned nothing from the goddamn pandemic.
On the housing issue, rents in my town, which is not especially touristic, aren't lower than 700€ a month. For what? A 30-50 square meter apartment. Try affording that on a single paycheck, which in spain the usual is 13-18k a year, which let me run some math by you real quick, is 1,08-1,5k a month before taxes reductions. People will be having to live on a 900-1,2k€ salary and have to pay 700 out of that JUST to keep a roof on their fucking head. Bills can rack up to 400 a month. Thats BEFORE having to buy food.
Seeing some cuntfuck twitter post abt how spain is no longer a HoLiDaY dEsTiNaTiOn like over reliance on the tourism industry isnt the exact thing that has set us back economically bc its easier to have a massive influx of money every summer and then coast by the rest of the year. People discussing quality vs quantity tourism when the fucking brits and germans come to our land to get blackout drunk on cheap booze and throw themselves off balconies to the point it has actually become a meme here to call the first day of summer when the first balconing brit related death happens. And then I get called "quantity" and "shit" tourism when I have to book an airbnb so I can go watch the Fallas with my friends but cant afford to pay 1-2k for a weeklong stay at a hotel for four people
Also the post in question? A map of the ground temperature in some parts of Spain reaching 60C. But yknow, who cares about the massive droughts, the earth hardening and the crops literally burning alive in the ground, its not like we arent a massive agricultural exporter lmao
People live here. A fuck ton of people live here. And a lot of them are struggling. Our country isnt your fucking commodity to abandon once it has gotten too hot, because you might be here for a week but a lot of people are here for a lifetime.
#i want tourists to go the fuck back home and im not kidding#fuck british neighborhoods fuck danish neighborhoods fuck german neighborhoods who have no interest in us#beyond our fucking beaches and cheaper cost of life

I saw your headcanon about iceland being tall and I wondered what your height and body type headcanons are for the nordorks?
Hi Anon! I really wish I could draw to answer this but I cannot so here we are instead. These headcanons are for nationverse. I do have slightly different headcanons for human au so please keep that in mind especially if you read any of my fics! ^^
-------
Here are the headcanons ordered from Tallest to Shortest :)
Denmark:
Height - 6ft 5 / 197cm
Weight - 12.2st / 170 pounds
Den has a dorito body. Very broad shoulders and a narrow waist and torso. He has a relatively athletic build and strong, toned legs from cycling a lot. In terms of stamina he probably has the most out of all the Nordics and it takes a lot for him to get out of breath. He just has so much energy. Although he’s very tall, his body is pretty well proportioned, though his hands are a little on the large side despite him having quite thin arms. Minimal body hair, mainly on his legs and forearms but it’s fine hair ‘cause he’s a redhead.
Sweden:
Height - 6ft 2 / 188cm
Weight - 15.2st / 216 pounds
Sweden is a whole lotta leg. Finding trousers that are long enough and don’t just stop at an awkward length above his ankles is a struggle, and a lot of his height is in his legs. He’s the most muscular of the Nordics and I feel like he would also be quite heavy boned which results in him being generally heavy even though he doesn't really look it. His body is rectangular, and he has quite a wide and short torso. Most of his strength lies in his upper body and arms and these are the areas that he works on the most. Sve hates leg day with a passion. Though his body hair is fair and fine there’s lots of it, and Sve can grow one hell of a beard.
Iceland:
Height 5ft 10 / 177cm
Weight - 10.4st / 145 pounds
Iceland is a skinny string bean. His arms are a little too long in proportion to the rest of his body, but don’t let this fool you as he is deceivingly strong. He has the body of a swimmer. Lean yet toned, and does actually swim a lot as his main form of exercise. Up until a decade or so ago he was quite short, but due to a recent boom in tourism his economy skyrocketed and as a result he shot up like a weed. He’s a little self conscious of his height now and has slightly hunched shoulders as a result from not standing up straight. Ice has stretch marks from his growth spurt that he tries to hide. Minimal body hair.
Norway:
Height 5ft 9 / 174cm
Weight 12.1st / 169 pounds
Norway is not as lean as he once was in his youth. Although he’s athletic and will blast you out of the water when it comes to skiing, he lacks defined muscles and instead has quite thick thighs and great ass. He’s average height, but compared to the rest of the Nordics he does appear quite short though he isn’t really bothered about this. He’s quite hairy, particularly on his chest and stomach but his body hair is very pale yet coarse. The hair on his head is similar, it’s curly and kind of wiry. All the butter and sweet treats have gotta go somewhere, and Nor tends to fluctuate with his weight especially during the christmas period, but he’s totally unbothered by it and despite being quite a shy person he’s confident when it comes to his body.
Finland:
Height - 5ft 5 / 164cm
Weight - 15.10st / 224 pounds
Finland both mentally and physically is the strongest of the Nordics, but his stamina is kinda poor. He can get out of breath easily, but he blames this on the cold weather. Fins shoulders are quite slight compared to the rest of his stocky build, and he does have a bit of a gut. His calves are very muscular and a lot of Fin’s strength lies in his lower body. He has small hands but quite large feet that he sometimes gets self conscious about. The hair on his legs is thick, yet his chest and arm hair is fine and barely noticeable. Despite this though, he too can grow quite an impressive beard yet chooses not to as the hair on his head is very pale, his beard ends up looking a little ginger in comparison. He’s known to sport a 5’oclock shadow though from time to time.
#sweet anon#headcanons#aph nordics#these headcanons are just my personal opinions and interpretations#and I totally respect if you have different ones to me!

💜💜💜💜💜💜🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈😊😊😊😊😊😊THANK YOU DEAR MM ANON, I AM SO SO PLEASED ABOUT YOUR TEST RESULTS 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻PG🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
July 24/2029 0250 hrs CST Riddle from July 23/2020. Riddle #69
love life exposed ……………
Well the court has ruled in the case regarding it is GM that the court can do that the records can be unsealed. This is in the case involving VRG! The floodgates will open as explosive documents detailing Ghislaine Maxwell’s sex life can be UNSEALED in Virginia Giuffre’s defamation case within a week!Judge Loretta Preska, in Manhattan ruled on Thursday to unseal more than 80 documents that GM had wanted to keep under wraps.The judge said the documents - which will run to hundreds of pages - should be made public within a week.They include flight logs from Epstein’s jets, a deposition in 2016 in which Maxwell’s lawyers said she was asked ‘intrusive’ questions about her sex life.The documents also include police reports from Palm Beach, Florida, where JE had a home. It will include communications between GM and JEfrom January 2015 when VRG made allegations about them in court papers. In the papers VRG claimed she was forced to have sex with Pa three times when she was just 17, at JE orders. The documents were part of a defamation lawsuit brought by VRG against GM, which was confidentially settled in 2017. The case is separate from the criminal proceedings against GM, who is accused of procuring girls as young as 14 for JE to abuse. I honestly feel sick 🤢🤢🤢and pray 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻for anybody who has to read all of this horrific information!
gift of jewellery ………………
I can just not find anything that I think is relevant. The only thing I can see is the Fringe Tiara, that her Majesty loaned to princess Beatrice on her wedding. I am looked up and down sideways for any possible wedding gifts you received. I just find nothing. So maybe it’s some thing obvious that I missing but I’ve tried my best and I just I just can’t seem to find anything that makes any sense.
it’s all a mask …………………
Well I think the word of the year besides COVID-19 is mask. Everybody and their dog is making masks fashion designers and etc. I ordered some from the Lug company and that this is the cutest patterns and they’re water repellent, just like the Lug bags very very cute. I was just a metaphor for how things really are? It’s a small some big grand conspiracy to help the New World order? Everybody online is got some crazy conspiracy theory. I am doing my best to keep away from it all. But I do think going forward wearing mask will be a new normal.
sister protection ………………
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻.
Thirteen nuns from a Michigan, U.S.A., convent have died from COVID-19 in a deadly wave that claimed 12 in just one month and left more than a dozen seriously ill.The nuns, who lived together at the Felician Sisters’ convent in Livonia, Michigan, were all aged between 79 and 99 years of age.Twelve of them died in the one month between April 10 and May 10. At the time, 18 other nuns had contracted COVID-19 and were being treated for the virus. On June 27, one of the 18 nuns battling the virus also died.The nuns lived and worked together - mostly as teachers - at the Livonia convent, which was home to 65 sisters prior to the pandemic. Most definitely are under God’s care now.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
yippee ,Balmoral ……………
Yep kids, they are off to Balmoral!! I wish them a marvellous time!🥂🥂🥂The Queen and Prince Philip are to move to Balmoral early for a socially-distanced summer holiday with her family. Her Majesty, Queen and Duke of Edinburgh are going to go to Scotland early next week. All visitors and family will have to stay in other buildings on grounds. 15,000 acres, loads of room.😁😁 ⛺️ fishing �� 🌳 🌲 💐 🦌 🦊. You get the idea, their love of the outdoors is well known.
15 Bank accounts??………………
GM is alleged to have 15 back accounts are the globe. I have a strong belief there are more and as l said last week she became a naturalized U.S. citizen back in 2002. I believe she may several passports despite this. Her connections are broad, spread globally and the wealthiest of the wealthy. This is a major double sword because she knows a lot of very awful truths and secrets about the elite allegedly. She is quivering in her paper boots. Now they are unsealing VRG records from that case in Florida…….big shoes are about to drop!!
return to school??? ………………
There has been a reuptick in the cases of COVID-19 in various places around the world where the case that had kind of stabilized. We are seeing that in Canada as well in several provinces. In our country, it’s due to people gathering in large gatherings and then having what they call a super spreader. Then they return home and it spreads throughout their community. So as far as returning to school I think in many parts of the world that’s still up in the air. I’m thinking especially regarding our Cambridge children, they probably still do not know what they’re going to do. It is likely going to probably come down to digital education and a continuation of more of the same as had been done earlier in the year. As we, in the northern hemisphere are heading to autumn and the flu season when begins, this is very concerning. The southern hemisphere is on fire, en Fargo, 🔥 with COVID-19 cases it’s just unbelievable. stay safe Ladykinrannoch 💜💜💜💜🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💜💜💜💜
“ it’s the theatre Jim, but not as they show it”…………
Back to MM Anon’s favourite Star Trek reference.💜💜💜💜💜😊😊😊😊😊😊💜💜💜💜💜Theatre in the west end of London is historic and a huge tourism money maker. It brings a lot of tourists in and many locals who enjoy the theatre both dramatic and musical. As we know in the UK Panto (pantomime) season is a huge fundraiser for the theatre district itself plus it’s a tradition and everybody just loves it. This is going to be I don’t know how many millions they say that will be has been lost already. Theatres and music venues in England will be able to host physically distanced outdoor performances from Saturday 11 July under new government guidance, but industry figures are calling for more clarity on when full-capacity indoor performances can return. U.K.The culture secretary, Olive Dowden, announced the relaxing of restrictions where performances can now take place as long as they are “outside and with a limited and socially distanced audience”. “As I’ve seen for myself at the Royal Academy this morning, the National Gallery and as we’ll see shortly from the National Museums Liverpool, our cultural institutions are beginning to welcome back visitors,” he said. “I’m really urging people to get out there and to play their part, buy the tickets for outdoor plays and music recitals, get to your local gallery and support your local businesses.” The government said that now “gives the green light�� for outdoor opera at Glyndebourne, and outdoor theatre at venues such as the Minack Theatre and Shakespeare’s Globe, but industry figures were disappointed that the announcement did not go further. Earlier in the week, Dowden unveiled @£1.57 billion, WITH A B, BILLION!!!, rescue plan for the 🎭.Jon Morgan, director of Theatres Trust, welcomed the relaxation but called for more clarity on when theatres can move to stage five of the government’s plan when performances are allowed indoors with audiences. “Oh, what a performance… Britain’s theatres are dying on their feet. Now Andrew Lloyd Webber’s fighting to prove the show CAN go on — yet as SARAH VINE found at his Covid-safe staging, if the rules aren’t relaxed, the curtain may fall for good” DAILY MAIL
Sending in Federal Troops ……………………
In American cities are specifically Portland, Oregon, Chicago, Illinois there’s a few others where they are or mayors and governors who are I have specifically. ordered the police not to do their job. The numbers of shootings and murders in Chicago has skyrocketed just unbelievably and there’s been little children involved. There was a open broad daylight shooting at a funeral home where I believe 15 people were shot and it was a gang members funeral and I was I guess other gang members that did the shooting. Apparently there are 117,000 gang members in that part of Chicago where the entire population of the community is 500,000 so you’re looking at more than 20% does astounding!! These mayors/governors are of the opposing party of the current U.S. government and are actively, as in the case of Minneapolis, have instituted laws ready to defund the police. I want to specifically talk about Portland, Oregon. Tonight I believe it was the 54th night of riots and destruction and the local law-enforcement are held back they’re not allowed to do anything. They have specifically received instructions from their mayor and governor. Imagine being those fine dedicated to serve and protect officers being handcuffed, so to speak, from doing their job. IMAGINE LIVING THERE?!🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺Homeland security together with the ATF, the FBI and Various other federal law enforcement have been there to try and stop the destruction. They are there because their specific mandate is to stop damage and protect federal buildings to federal property from destruction or damage. President Trump has said he is in sending in more federal aid despite what the the mayors and the governors are saying. Specifically in Portland it was really interesting on Tuesday evening the mayor, whose name escapes me, he went down into the riot and he had a microphone and a mask and he was speaking they knew it was him he was on a big screen I think and he was speaking in support of all these rioters, these antifa people. The crowd then they turned on him they were yelling at him to resign they were throwing stuff at him and it got really really really dangerous.I would not be at all surprised if it’s some point as a thing in Seattle that CHAZ or CHOP as it became called , there ended up being several murders I think four or five rapes and endless lawless behaviour where they just went in and cleaned it up. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if martial law ended up being declared in some of these places. The local mayors and governors do not seem to understand that the federal law-enforcement agencies like the ATF, the FBI, homeland security etc. have a mandate a legal mandate to protect federal property.
Bojo crabs ………………
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson toured a crab fishery on the Orkney archipelago on Thursday, July 23/2020, amid increasing support for Scotland’s independence from the rest of the United Kingdom. Speaking earlier in the day, he was keen to press the case for the whole of the U.K., to work together to tackle the coronavirus and subsequent economic fallout.
Following his visit to the fishery, Johnson also toured a local cheese-making dairy and was then due to meet members of the military, whom he will thank for their help in responding to the coronavirus outbreak, which included setting up testing sites and transferring patients.The visit marked the first anniversary of his premiership, with Johnson reaffirming his promise to increase opportunity and prosperity for all parts of Britain.I read it it’s quite funny in one of the articles I read they said when he was holding the crap he look like Edward Scissorhands from the movie. Interestingly that movie stars Johnny Depp.
a strong union 🤣🤣🤣………………
For years now Scotland has wanted independence from England. Actually make centuries! Nicola Sturgeon, First Minister of Scotland, used her daily COVID-19 presser as a. ‘party political broadcasts’ and a lack of proper scrutiny of her decisions has allowed her to cultivate a 'Saint Nicola’ persona in Scotland through the crisis, a leading MSP told MailOnline today.Michelle Ballantyne, Conservative MSP for South Scotland, spoke out as PM Boris Johnson visited Orkney and said the pandemic would have been 'disaster’ for Scotland if it had been independent from the UK.She stated that a largely pro-Independence press have failed to hold the First Minister to account during the pandemic while the Government in London fielded questions every night for months at the Downing Street news conferences.The collapse of press scrutiny in Scotland has allowed Ms Sturgeon to sell the idea of holding a second Independence referendum to the public, as two polls find that 54 per cent of people would back secession if there was a second vote. It has also caused even people in England to imagine that the SNP leader has handled the crisis better than the PM, as a YouGov poll last month showed. DM.
4 million. …………”
US coronavirus cases surpass !!4 MILLION!! and another one million are expected in just two weeks - as Texas sets single-day high for fatalities and California sees record 12,000 infections in 24 hours. Cases are doubling each week, if you look at the graph and stats! THIS IS ALARMING, especially since a U.S. election for president is the November. The Republican national conversation, initially scheduled in North Carolina but the POTUS cancelled it there because of discord l believe. It was moved to Jacksonville, Florida. Due to Covid-19, these massive gatherings are impossible. POTUS said he would do a digital speech. I wonder how on earth they will have an election🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻.The number of cases is now on track to record an addition one million infections in just two weeks.In the past week, the average number of daily cases has reached 66,000 and, based on that trajectory, cases will increase by one million by the first week of August.More than 143,000 Americans have now died from COVID-19 after daily deaths surpassed 1,000 on Wednesday for the second time this week.There has been an uptick in deaths, on average, across the US since the beginning of July after hotspot states including Florida, Texas and Arizona saw explosions in cases and hospitalizations.In Texas on Wednesday, they set one-day records for increases in COVID-19 deaths and hospitalizations in the state.Meanwhile, California surpassed New York on Wednesday to have the highest number of COVID-19 cases in the country . Some from DM.
“ are you coming Sydney”………… “indubitably sir”…………… “ stock the cellar!! “ ……… “ your request is my command sir” ………… “ and don’t tell anyone I’m driving the LR.”
Well they are off to Balmoral! Himself is asking Sydney if he was coming along to Scotland 🏴. As is if there was any doubts, 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂if he was going to come along and he answered in dubitably of course indubitably! If, am he must! stock the cellar, Himself has got to have that Boddington’s!! 🍺 🍻 🍻!Sydney, the ever faithful Butler, said your request is my command sir! 😁😁😁😁😁Himself is not supposed to be driving , yet tell him to keep schtüm on the fact that he is going to be at Balmoral driving the Lone Ranger! Have a wonderful time!!

July 24/2020. Riddle #70!
” since 1948 ,no changes …………
The Daily Mail has this amazing story today. I know people who don’t move stuff about. I used to always move my furniture around and decorate each season. Now the furniture moving….not so much🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 due to my back. But l love moving my special things AND decorating each season! There is a house stuck in time. An ex-Royal Navy sailor, 89, has left decor untouched since 1948 saying it’s saved him thousands. Doug Bethel, 89, from Liverpool, Merseyside, still lives in the house that his family first purchased in 1948. Following military service he was a gas engineer, now retired obviously, although men do still have a lot of “ gas” 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂especially around that age. Pardon my humour😂😂🤣😂☺️🤣🤣☺️. He has left his house untouched, when he returned to live with parents after leaving Royal Navy.Mr Bethel has kept his childhood bedroom untouched and still has the original kitchen and cooker in house. Since it was built, house has survived two explosions- one during the Second World War and another in 1986. This goes to show you how things are quality that were built back then last and stand the test of time. Now if you buy an appliance they’re made to be disposable they don’t last that long and it’s cheaper to buy a new one then to fix it. I would love to walk through this house and have him explain everything. That used to be my type of favourite patient to work with, the special patient who was seasoned as I should say , elderly , but I prefer the word seasoned and had lots of life stories and life lessons to tell. The pictures are amazing! The outside of the house looks a little rough but the inside is glorious! The floral wallpaper on the walls, my goodness it’s beautiful. He’s done an excellent job of taking care of everything it at all looks just spic and span.. Well that’s a phrase I haven’t used in a long time, spic and span. That’s what my mum used to always say when we cleaned the house and it was all done and she said yes things look spic and span. Does anyone else remember that phrase? I don’t know why that came out of my mouth today but it’s interesting how things stay in our brain and then they come out. I’m noticing that as I use this audio software and I’m just talking instead of typing, it’s a whole different type of experience. I love that mirror he has on the wall that’s Dewar’s, oh man I’d love to have that , beautiful!
wags wobble…………
WAGS was an American tv show, tacky like the Real Housewives shows. It stood for Wives and Girlfriends of Sportsmen, of professional Americans athletes. THAT was a slutty show wowza! I am ashamed to admit l watched some of it.😞😞😞☹️☹️☹️😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣I doubt that this is what MM Anon is talking about!
However I do believe she’s referring to the ongoing battle between football/soccer wives Coleen Rooney and Rebekah Vardy. This is been going on for months if not eat over a year or longer I’ve been reading about it. Are used to really like best friends. And Khalid a Rooney is married to Wayne Rooney for those of you who don’t know he’s he’s like a premier player in the football league in the UK. She had a feeling that someone in her close circle shit close to Facebook friend I think like 25 soccer football wives I think there’s 25 of them in there and she had a feeling somebody was on sharing details outside of that group. So she decided to put it up on her self to do a little test of each woman. And she came to the conclusion that Rebekah Vardy was the one that was releasing confidential information. that’s of the backstory that I know so this is what the daily mail is saying today.
Rebekah Vardy no w has accused Coleen Rooney of leaking stories to the press HERSELF, says she’s been made a scapegoat and was left ‘suicidal’ by fall-out from Wagatha Christie row, in bombshell court documents from £1m libel claim.Wagatha Christie🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Rebekah Vardy revealed her ‘extreme anguish’ about being exposed 'to public ridicule’ in legal documents.She also claimed in the papers that the stress of the scandal had left her fearful of losing her unborn baby.In an astonishing claim, Rebekah detailed how she believed she had been 'made a scapegoat’ by Coleen. The saga started in October when the wife of Wayne Rooney accused Rebekah of leaking stories about her.
phone a drone …………
Well Madam has pulled one of her favourite tricks pardon the pun Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣. This Audio talking type thing is so funny because it’s hard to when I laugh so when he says ha ha Ha ha ha I’m actually laughed and then when I see the half I laugh even harder oh it’s funny anyways she’s pulled another stunt. Oh help me help me l’m a poor innocent female I’m a poor innocent female! There are drones flying all around the mansion I am living in trying to capture photos of Archficial! This goes back to one of her first earliest dance when she phone hairy and said all the paparazzi are stocking me outside my house in Toronto oh I’m so scared that it it off and then he released that statement which locked him into her with her for good. Now apparently they her and hairy they have filed a lawsuit and all these John Does with drones are going to be sued. She is a feminist why are there no Jane Does? How does she know that they’re just men? Why are there no John and Jane Does? Miss feminist!Oh first of all there’s no drones actually , well first of all she is not at Tyler Perry’s house mansion whatever. She’s lawsuit happy otherwise known as litigious! Oh well used characteristic by the rich and celebrities alike. So she’s now filed a lawsuit against people that don’t exist for something that’s not happening at a place where she’s not living with a child that doesn’t exist in her care! Does that make sense did I say that right or you say it slower she’s now follows a lawsuit against people that don’t exist, for something that’s not happening, at a place where she’s not living, with a child that doesn’t exist in her care!!! Wow that is a lot to unpack in that one sentence wow! What a joke! She is such a joke such a bloody joke it’s just hilarious it is I mean if it weren’t so Flippin sad that our beautiful royal family was dragged into this it is just so hilarious I said this is her life this is how she’s living her life can you kids imagine what a waste of a life that God gives you wow wow wow wow!
Kim-vorce ………………
I find it so incredibly sad. I spoke about it yesterday, to watch a man publicly mentally implode. Bipolar disorder, a full-blown manic phase, millions of dollars at his fingertips right in front of the public, it just breaks my heart it absolutely it’s just breaks my heart. I have not affinity for the Kardashians or Kanye West don’t get me wrong, I’m not , I’m no fan but I am a human being with compassion. I worked in mental health and it’s just it’s just breaks my heart to watch this happen. Then when he went on to talk about how him and Kim wanted to or she wanted to abort their first baby, North.can you imagine now that’s out in the public and when they were little girl gets older she’s going to read that oh my so so damaging. Other than celebrities always naming their babies weird names you can see his illness evident in the names of their children as well. Kim has remained silent but she released a statement two days ago saying how heartbreaking it is that the family can do nothing to help him do it to the mental health laws there. Also the two of them have been considering divorce for quite some time. Yeah I having a chronic mental illness that has the phases that is dramatic and drastic as he is that doesn’t fit into the reality show a life of a perfect family does it? Let’s get rid of him .In my province, the family can go to the magistrate and get someone formed, it is a form that it’s a short word for the form that’s that’s filled out by the magistrate to compel the person to see a GP or ER , by police or RCMP escort if need be, and often is! They can compel them to see a doctor. Then if the doctor feels they need mental health assistance they can fill out a different form, transferred to Psychiatry and then they will be held against their will for 72 hours for assessment and after such a time as if it’s determined that the person is really in need of hospitalization then there is another form that the psychiatrists, two of them have to fill out and then they start treatment. The 72 hours is for assessment, therefore minimal meds given to allow a clear assessment. However in most cases the person by the time they reach the involuntarily assessment phase they are so ill that they cannot go 72 hours without treatment. They are either violence or acutely suicidal or both and there are various treatment modalities that are used.There’s also a review board process in this within 21 days they can apply to the review were to have the review board if you review the case to determine if it’s appropriately involuntarily hospitalized. The review were consists of psychiatrists nurses legal people and members of the community.
masked burger…………
Who would’ve thought the the new cottage industry for 2020 would be making facemasks? Designers of all types are making them fashion a fashion statement to coordinate with your clothing. I think that’s a good thing because of this is going to be the new normal we’re going to have to be wearing them and you might as well have something not only be utilitarian but look nice as well right? In the U.K. fast food chains including McDonald’s, Burger King and Domino’s have confirmed they will enforce the new face mask rules.From July 24, you must wear face masks in all shops, public places, restaurants etc.and you could be fined £100 if you fail to do so. The government has also issues guidance guidelines for restaurants and fast food places, which l guess are not considered restaurants 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂. Dine-in and takeaway customers must follow different rules when inside a food establishment.If you’re buying food and drink to takeaway, you are required to wear a face covering.The government says this is the same as entering and browsing a normal shop, where it’s also compulsory to wear face masks.But if you plan on eating in, you won’t need to wear a face covering.Ministers have previously said “it’s not practical” to wear face masks in places where you’ll be eating. This actually makes zippo sense. Close the eat in then!!
flowers for team Johnny ………… 💐💐💐💐💐
A female fan gave a bouquet of flowers to JD outside the courthouse. They flouted social distancing rules as he leaned in for a cuddle with the female fan outside of the London court.He was seen smiling after receiving the stunning bouquet of white flowers as the pair talked outside, seemingly ignoring COVID-19 restrictions. There are no rules for celebrities and politicians! This was a few days ago like ten, l can find no other reference.
bailed out by old Bailey…………… ⚖️ ????denied
For those of you who are not aware of what oh Bailey is here’s a little education. Old Bailey is the Central Criminal Court of England and Wales (commonly called the Old Bailey). The Crown Court sitting at the Central Criminal Court deals with major criminal cases from within Greater London and in exceptional cases, from other parts of England and Wales. This is the applicant case though and it’s JUSTICE DENIED, grins and arrogance hand signs! 'You robbed a hero of his life’: PC Andrew Harper’s widow tells of shock after 'barbaric’ travellers who dragged him to death were cleared of murder and says: 'I have a life sentence to bear… more painful than a meagre number of years in prison’. PC Andrew Harper’s widow Lissie today said she was 'immensely disappointed’ that the three teenagers who killed her husband were cleared of murder and convicted of manslaughter, describing the crime as 'barbaric’. Henry Long, Albert Bowers and Jessie Cole, who are all travellers, hugged each other as they were cleared of murdering the police officer by dragging him to his death behind their car - but were convicted of manslaughter. Speaking outside the Old Bailey in London today, Ms Harper said: 'I’m immensely disappointed with the verdict given today. I now have my own life sentence to bear, and believe me when I say it will be a much more painful, soul-destroying and treacherous journey than anyone facing a meagre number of years in prison will experience.’ PC Harper, 28, had tried to stop the thieves stealing a quad bike and his ankles were lassoed by the trailing loading strap as the teenagers tried to escape in Sulhamstead, Berkshire.
Ban her from the palace …………………
Well the only thing a person I can think of that being banned from the Palace would be Madam. that would be each and every royal residence even probably within 100 metres. But why would this be coming up now? Interesting! MM Anon, you always leave me wondering with some of your clues and my brain just goes Squirrley. I would’ve thought these orders would’ve been given a long time ago.
tell all will destroy her………………
It’s being marked down and I don’t know anybody that’s going to buy this book “finding freedom” by Scooby Doo and Durand. She again has bitten off way more than she can chew and is now stepping away from having any part of that book and is denying participating with it. Anybody associated with her gets Markled. Some people may be lucky enough just to lose their reputation and employment. Others are not so lucky they may end up in a world of legal trouble both civil and criminal. Those I’m thinking of ourJM, GM, MA, DR,TM et al meaning the rest of the M family that we have seen and heard from. It is all coming together now like a perfect storm. Her lawsuit against the mail on Sunday, this book with the ridiculous title, all of the I don’t want to use the word friends, but famous people who have said they have met and held Archie. People like, Ellen degenerate, yes I said degenerate. One I cannot figure out for love nor money, is the monkey lady whose name escapes me right now Jane Goodall that’s her name Jane Goodall. What is her what’s what’s her part in this game here? A respected woman of her age. Who has spent decades of her life doing groundbreaking research and is so well respected , what is she got to hide that she’s got to be part of this nonsense. I don’t know but as London scoop says I so often harken to, that up is down down is up inside as outside outside and inside. I just find it very very sad! Only in her case only in her case! I want you to know that wasn’t a spelling error on my part that’s what I call her Ellen degenerate because she is a degenerate and how she treats people and lies!
K&W&LCG will sunny fly to island???……………”
As I predicted/ well educated guessed, 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣, several riddles ago, oh I’m a psychic with a 🔮 oooooooo and it’s purple too Wowza!! The Cambridge family, aka K, Catherine, W, William, L, Louis, C, Charlotte, G, George, will take an island holiday. Oh what a clever detective I am eh 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂?I am guessing it will be to the place in the Caribbean that Pippa’s in-laws own. With Vogue Williams, the wife of Pippa’s husband due to deliver their baby girl soon, like any day or minute now, they won’t be going. They usually all go together. The Cambridges, her parents, Pippa and James Matthew, his parent, and James Middleton and his finacé , whose name escapes me! I know she is from France!
“I’ll drive Sydney!! “ ……… “ I’ll walk sir” …………… “ bloody get in”😱😱😱
HMTQ and Himself are off to Balmoral for their summer vacay!. As we all know after that MVA, motor vehicle accident that Prince Philip had last year, he was told that he could no longer drive by the HMTQ. That would be the only person he would he would listen to. Sounds like the rules are changing up in Scotland though oh he’s insisting on driving. And despite Sydney’s best efforts that’s a no no questions asked he’s driving. And Sydney is insisting not but himself is firm and that he was driving. And Sydney cheeky adorable Sydney says he’ll walk sir it and then you have himself chickie reply get in the vehicle! Oh my love just absolutely love these scenes!! I can picture them so vividly in my head! Then having this I would imagine rather loud conversation outside a Range Rover, aka Lone Ranger! The three horrified faces are probably people watching, watching and listening to what’s being said!

July 25/2020 FIVE MONTHS UNTIL CHRISTMAS 🎄. Riddle #71
Some help from the DM today again.
“ SHOWGIRL”…………… “
ALLEGEDLY, When Madam began “dating” Prince Harry she was snubbed by her future sister-in-law and contemptuously referred to as “Harry’s showgirl” by a senior royal, according to bombshell revelations in a new book.In “the book” “journalists “Carolyn Durand and Omid Scobie paint a sympathetic picture of Madam who was shunned by palace staff and Harry’s older brother William, who once advised Harry to take his time “to get to know this girl.” I used the word book and journalists in quotes because they are not real journalists and it is an insult to all great books to call this trash a book!“In those last two words, ‘this girl,’ Harry heard the tone of snobbishness that was diametrically opposite to his approach to the world, MY WORDS😁😁😁. “During his 10-year career in the military, outside the royal bubble, he had learnt not to make snap judgments about people based on their accent, education, ethnicity, class or profession.”
“that girl” …………
This was a tv show when l was a kid with Marlo Thomas. Anyone recall that? ‘P****d off’ Prince Harry branded William a snob after his brother accused him of being ‘blinded by lust’ over 'this girl’ Madam sensational Finding Freedom biography claims. This or that, feels like something right outside of Sesame Street! This and that are demonstratives grammatically speaking! Now I shall do my best Elmo voice how is that or this , this and that are demonstrative in English language grammatically speaking. Do you English grammatical language? Don’t I sound just like Elmo? Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂. Since their whole “relationship was a booty call“ William is exactly right.ALLEGEDLY Prince Harry thought William was a ‘snob’ after he was warned to take things slow with ‘this girl’aka SEAHAG🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂. ALLEGEDLY the Duke of Cambridge told Harry not to ‘rush this’ and ‘take as much time as you need to get to know’ this SEAHAG! Madam was described by palace insiders as 'Harry’s showgirl’ who came 'with a lot of baggage’! Well that’s putting it mildly she has more baggage than the whole Louis Vuitton company put together!😆😆😆😆🤣🤣😂
“ I don’t trust her “………………
I’m going to stick with Madam here. After their first teatime or meeting with William and Catherine, allegedly William found Madam taking pictures of the children and private parts of their home and he was furious. She was allegedly planning to sell them for a quarter of $1 million but I bet you she could have gotten more. If she had sold photos of the children they would have been worth millions! They would have been embargoed in the UK but they would still be selling today around the world.No actually they would not be selling today because they would have sued her and probably brought charges. That is nothing to mess about with, he is the son to heir to the throne and those children are also in line of succession and to violate that, in the sanctuary of their home, is no small crime in the UK. So based on, first of all they knew everything about her before that, so I mean they did not trust her anyways. The way she trapped in at Harry there is just nothing about this woman to trust. I do not need to explain it you, you all know it. I do not trust her, she messes in dark evils!
If this is about AH or GM, same rules apply, no trust!
quarantine
Don’t you just love rules and rules that you don’t know exist and then you have to obey them as if you knew that they existed the whole time? It’s so special so very special I am being very facetious😁😁😁😁! Fury of the Brits caught out abroad! First holidaymakers return home from Spain and straight into quarantine, after ‘ridiculous’ snap ruling not even the airlines knew about came into force, leaving thousands unable to go to work. Vacationers returning will have to quarantine after landing back for two weeks. This raises problems for those who owns their own businesses or can’t be off work.Others worry their employers won’t allow them to isolate for two weeks. With so many people looking for work this could be absolutely disastrous. People returning from a well deserved holiday to find that they don’t have a job just devastating.
…… “we never consulted the authors”😂😂😂……………”
A spokesperson for Harry and Madam told Us Weekly on Saturday that the couple “were not interviewed and did not contribute to Finding Freedom. This book is based on the authors’ own experiences as members of the royal press corps and their own independent reporting.” If you believe for one fleeting second, you can insert another F word if you like I put that in there for you MM Anon, and I thought you might get a laugh out of that 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂, that Madam had no input into this book I have a bridge in the middle of the Sahara desert that I want to sell you! To call themselves a journalist to call themselves a book come out and say this is only on their own recollection is a laughable! There is no way on this planet that Scooby Doo has been in her inner circle, closest to her for all this time and she put gave no input to what he was writing about her? If it is laughable, it’s laughable and it’s just, there’s no way that it’s true! I just simply don’t believe it! It is another one of her lies compounded on lies compounded on more lies compounded on a book full of lies compounded on a relationship full of lies, a child that was lied about, a pregnancy that was a lie, the engagement that was a lie, her whole life has been a lie. She doesn’t know the truth she has no idea what truth and authenticity is!
“it’s a gym Jim, but not as they row it”………… “
MM Anon, once again using the tried and true Star Trek metaphor, as shall heretofor be referred to as. 😁😁😁😁How is that for legal mumbo jumbo LEGAL ANON😁😁😁?? Gyms and swimming pools in England reopened today!!But this does not mean that all gyms have opened. No more dash in and out on your lunch break or a quickie after work, no, no, no. This must be planned like a keen covert ops!!!😁😁😁😁. Most gyms will request earlier arrival times and pre-booking. “We ask that new members arrive 15 minutes before the class start time, and regular customers arrive a couple of minutes before. They ideally want to allow class participants to fully exit the studio before the next class begins. Likely so they can sterilize the life out of the place after all that sweat! You’ll need to arrive in your gym clothes! As is the case with many clothing shops, some gyms are keeping their changing facilities closed to reduce the amount of time people spend in the facility. Lockers are likely to also be out of bounds to allow for distancing. El stinks for sure! DEFINITELY NO LUNCHTIME WORKOUTS PHEW🤢🤢🤢🥴🥴🥴! Kids I’m not making light of this at all I’m just trying to use a little humour into this ongoing situation that we’re all in.SAY WHAT😲😲😮😮😮😮😮🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭 No more showering. Some gyms will also close their showers, while others will reduce the number that are open to allow for social distancing. Where possible, customers will instead be encouraged to wash at home after a workout session. PHEW!!Prepare to have your temperature checked. Many gyms may require clients to have their temperature taken at the door. You will also be asked to declare that they are feeling well before being allowed to enter the facility. Gyms are trialling a discreet thermo-scanner, which reads your temperature the minute you walk in the door. Gym equipment will be spread out. Once gyms reopen the number of machines that are available to use is likely to be reduced. They will be implementing one metre distancing between mats and planning the flow of the centres to ensure social distancing can be kept all at distance. Equipment will be spread out and user numbers will be monitored and limited to ensure safe distances are maintained.
GOOD GOLLY MISS MOLLY, PEOPLE ARE GOING TO CONTINUE WORKING OUT AT HOME RATHER THAN GO THROUGH THIS HASSLE IR SIMPKY NOT WORK OUT AT ALL!! PLUS YOU GET THE DELIGHT OF PAYING FIR THIS WONDERFGYM SERVICE.😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
“coming for a swim”……………
See above, in the U.K. public pools reopened today. All social distancing applies. They have come up with the miraculous way to stop osmosis from happening!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂If you don’t know what I don’t know if that means I don’t know how I could begin to explain that joke and if you do want to know what osmosis means you’re probably belly laughing right now. Basically what it means as you know things travel through water if you’re in the water and you got some dead skin or a scam or something loose on your skin is kind of just float away along with every germ you’re carrying it’s going to flood the way to the next person. Mind you if they’re using chlorinated pools that’ll kill anything! The big thing now are these UV you VO what is that UV whatever other lady letter that I used to kill The germs in pools instead of using chemicals.
knock em for SIX……………
This is a Cricket term, also has become slang usage. It means to be completely devastated. It is the highest scoring action in the where the ball exits the circle without leaving the ground in Cricket. Slang usage ie I was knocked for six after l lost my job.
Cricket has resumed in the U.K. Now fans are allowed!! They, 1000!! are returning to the Oval for the Surrey vs Merseyside two day friendly! Wonderful for both the teams and the fans some sense of normalcy!
Four!!!…………… “
Fore is the golf term that means somebody shot a ball and watch your head basically. Four with three!!!‘s we had this before when you were teasing us of the baby Cambridge number four! I don’t know if I’m gonna fall for it this time as much as I want to! Three !!!, three children, four is number four on the way..? I so badly want to believe that!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Reality bites and intervenes though. Premier Daniel Andrews issues desperate coronavirus plea to young people in Melbourne, revealing Victoria is ALREADY in stage four lockdown!! Premier Daniel Andrews says Melbourne is 'effectively’ in stage four lockdown.Victoria recorded another 459 cases on Sunday, along with 10 more deaths.Masks became mandatory across the city and Mitchell Shire on Thursday.The Premier issued harrowing plea to young Melburnians to take pandemic seriously. PLEASE HARKEN YOUNG ONES, YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE AND CAN SPREAD THE VIRUS🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻!
“jump Frankie”…………”
As per usual and MM Anon, you leave me one clue that makes me go Squirrley and I’m just going Squirrley Squirrley Squirrley! All I can find is something about a kid from a show called, The Middle, which I’ve never heard of and he’s jumping in and I don’t know what it doesn’t make sense. I highly doubt that you’re referring to some obscure American television show. I can’t find any high jumping athletes I cannae find nae the UK diver. I’m lost here. I am again thinking and searching and it’s probably obvious to those of you in the UK but I have no idea what this is.
Frankie is a male dog character who first appeared in JumpStart 1st Grade in 1995. He originally appeared mainly in products for first graders. Nowadays, he is the mascot of JumpStart and stars in games for a wide variety of ages.In JumpStart Around the World ,Frankie began wearing an outfit consisting of a blue collar red sweater with yellow trim, a V-neck, and the yellow letters “JS” on it. He continued to wear a similar outfit in other games released prior to and during the JumpStart Advanced series debut, though oftentimes the 'JS’ on his sweater was dropped. In the JumpStart Advanced series JumpStart All Starsfeature and title screens, Frankie wears a red shirt with blue stripes and yellow stars on it. Is this it? Are the Cambridge children using this to learn?? I have no doubt that I’m wrong but at least I found two interesting to interesting things to talk about anyways.
OK I was going to give it another 15 minutes before I gave up because I don’t get up and VoilaI found something about a chat named Frankie Detorri. He Is a horse jockey and has a signature move that he makes when he wins he jumps off the horse. We are you heard me right he jumped off the horse!Frankie’s flying on super Saturday! Dettori retains title as Royal Ascot’s top jockey with stunning 150-1 treble, including two Group Ones.
Dettori won the Queen Mary Stakes and then the Coronation Stakes. Ha persistence pays off oh I’m so happy! The treble was completed with Palace Pier in the St James’s Palace Stakes.The jockey moved onto 73 Royal Ascot winners - the same mark as Pat Eddery.
“it’s only to the Glen Sydney “ …………… “ it’s three miles sir” ……… “ get the bloody hamper” ……… “I’ll drive back sir” ………… “ not a bloody chance Sydney” ……… “ then I refuse sir” ……… “get your bloody arse in the LR” … “reluctantly sir “😱😱
I hear you have the humourous continuation of yesterday the disagreement between prince Philip and his dear man Sydney. Himself is trying to say it’s only a short drive but Sydney is saying it’s 3 miles Sir! Sounds like they’re going fishing or on a picnic and he’s telling him to get the hamper and Sydney wants as well I’ll drive back. And quite Himself saying no way and then he is Sydney is saying no way and himself is saying get your butt in the range rover or the lone ranger as he calling it end of dutiful Sydney says reluctantly with horror on his face I could just see and hear hear this ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha conversation!

July 26/2020. Riddle #72.
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈😊😊😊😊😊😊Thank you so much MM Anon, l am praying no clues will drive me Squirrley today!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈 I must add, I thank you so much for all, the other month I said I want more Royal news in the riddle blah blah blah, but I truly am grateful that you’re including all this world news because I have, for my own mental health I have stopped basically stopped watching the news because it was really affecting me in a bad way. And a lot of the things here I didn’t know so I didn’t know about the hurricane I didn’t know about Russia I didn’t know but all these things so thank you so much for including them because even though I know these things take so much time to research and get the right information and put it in there the right way it’s just it’s just great thank you just my opinion !PG💜💜💜💜😁😁😁😁😁😁💜💜💜💜
BARC-ALONE-A………
All uppercase has a reason and it’s obvious spell obviously Barcelona who is alone in Barcelona?Going to leave that one for now. This makes me think of Manuel from FawltyTowers, or Flawty Woerts or Lawfty Swoert, if you watch the show, you get the joke ha ha Ha ha ha ha ha ha . I think this is referring to the coronavirus and the fact that millions potentially of UK citizens will be trapped alone in Spain and in Barcelona which is in Spain. More than 600,000 British holidaymakers in Spain are already grappling.The government suddenly pulled its air bridge with Spain with almost immediate effect this week following a spike of coronavirus cases in the country.The move, which came into effect from midnight yesterday, means anyone returning to Britain from Spain faces an automatic fortnight-long quarantine at home.The rules apply to all regions of Spain, including the Canary and Balearic islands - though politicians in the latter say they are attempting to thrash out a regional air bridge.
‘Fortunately I’m feeling OK’: Barcelona football legend Xavi announces he has tested positive for coronavirus with Spaniard set to miss Al Sadd’s game TODAY while he is self-isolating. Long-serving Barcelona icon Xavi revealed he tested positive for coronavirus.
Barcelona goes into ‘voluntary lockdown’: City’s 1.6m residents are urged to stay home and avoid groups of more than ten after spike in coronavirus cases.Regional government stopped short of imposing a mandatory lockdown.Authorities said requested measures were to avoid a mandatory lockdown.Barcelona residents told to shop online and only leave home when it’s essential. Please let us remember Ladykinrannoch’s son and his partner live in Barcelona and they have a business there let’s remember to pray for them.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
no Transport home………
Well it sounds like Ryan air is having lots of trouble and layoffs so that could impact many people.Europe It’s starting to cut off Spain in terms of travel because of the coronavirus has risen again and they are terrified of a second wave. Francis actively discourage not Francis Francis Francis the country France thank you, is actively discouraging its citizens not to travel to Catalonia or to Spain which is I guess I think due to this and Norway is also oh my gosh Norway is reimposing quarantine! Oh my stars! And British tourists are warned they’re Being given a warning that airbridges could be close without notice! So I have a feeling that people are going to be trapped where they are, some people ,not all people and it’ll be like the other ruling there yesterday that Dominic Rasb made that people have to go in quarantine as soon as they return to the UK and nobody knew that because it happened like a snap. We are far from done with this coronavirus kids and the sooner we accept that the better let’s all go out and buy some fancy masks. I bought myself a ordered online a number of them and I don’t wanna plug any company but I don’t know if you gals gals,how old am I, only getting us ladies haveThe lug purses they’re terribly popular with young mums I know my niece has about 15 of them are more anyways they’re they’re highly utilitarian but cute and they are water repellent and fluid repellent and they have now started making masks and they have an endless selection to choose from and they come in sets of three so I ordered my set the three for $30 and the I ordered the set I ordered because that was the only one that had a purple purple coloured mask with that I think a dragon fly……I AM MOTHER OF DRAGONS😁😁😁 RIGHT SANDIEDOG??😁😁😁on there anyways They haven’t come yet but they’re on their way to me but if you go to lug life dot ca life I’ll have to hand type that in anyways if you don’t know lug it it’s OK l don’t know if it’s allowed on Tumblr to do a website like that so will find out I guess if it gets posted but anyways just a thought I thought about how I need to have a water repellant mask because if it’s water repellant that maybe it’s fluid repellent so if someone spits at you like accidentally like with her but when they’re talking to you anyways I just thought they would be more protective plus they are awfully cute so I have ordered myself a collection of very pretty masks my sister’s got me a purple one and I ordered one from our local shopping centre or what am I talking about, the shopping channel, oh my stars my brain is wonky and you guys all get to come along with me ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I love how this thing when I’m laughing listening type ha ha Ha ha ha I don’t I love you even more and I can’t stop myself oh no I don’t love you even more I love you more I said I love you even more I said l laugh LAUGH even more oh my goodness you guys are going to have a ball reading this.!.
on ya bike …………… obesities …………
I’m going to combine these two there’s a huge backlash and there’s been a couple articles that I read that mayor city con of London , Mayor Sadiq Khan of London, oh that won’t type so let’s I’ll have to do that my hand all the software is racist oh it’s racist it won’t type the name ha ha ha ha . The taxi drivers are especially ticked off about this. He is taking one lane of the already busy lanes of traffic in London and oh I don’t know how many miles I think 10 or 15 miles have already been done and I think there’s another equal amount being planned and they’ve been designated as bicycle lanes because he has this grand idea that people will cycle to work or cycle to downtown London and that way they can avoid using public transportation and less than their risk of coronavirus and basically that will drive the taxi drivers out of business and lessen the ability for disabled people to take the taxi because there are less places where they can pick up and drop off people because they cannot drive in those designated lanes. It’s really upset a lot of people. And in that with the obesity is that the stats are saying people with obesity and have a higher risk of dying from coal coronavirus. And the the p.m. forests and not evening Boris the Prime Minister Boris Johnson although he is in the evening as well I mean let’s face it that he lives both in the day and the night time as opposed to me, who seem to be sleeping during the day and a vampire oh. Anyhow he when he first started dating this Carrie Symonds, I think that’s howhow you spell her last name, she literally made him start eating well and exercise and he dropped a bunch of weight. And he said he’s dropped another was it 15 pounds or something since recovering from corona. So there’s been a lot of lots of talk about that as being a high risk factor in how the outcome is if you get coronavirus. And that simply because people who some people with obesity and have coexisting medical condition such as the hypertension and diabetes and that sort of thing, not everybody though some people are perfectly medically healthy and obese. Going to be really interesting I don’t know why I said that twiceGoing to be really interesting to see what happens with the gyms. With all the l mentioned at length last night or last night oh my goodness in the last riddle all the restrictions placed on the gym yet you have to come there ready to go early actually if you want, you can go back and read read yesterday’s riddle for all the details or Google it or whatever it’s all it’s gonna be really interesting because people have gotten used now either to a stopping working out which is a bad thing or working out at home and there’s so many great options now that you can use plus you don’t have to pay your gym fee so anyways it’s gonna be interesting to see what happens to yet another business as a result of coronavirus another change in our world. I realize that may be the longest run-on sentence in the in the world ever but it’s a longer sentence in those three travellers got for murdering that Police constable👮♀️ and I’m not joking! I know that’s not part of the clue but I’m just absolutely absolutely disgusted absolutely disgusted about that ruling by that judge I hope they appeal I hope the whoever has the power to appeal that decision because that is just disgusting what happened there!
floating for Vlad……………
Vladimir Putin has signed an order officially changing Russia’s constitution to allow him to stay in power until 2036!! Well isn’t that special that he’s able to do that wow in that supposedly a free country where they hold elections all the time isn’t that amazing can you hear the sarcasm?He signed the executive order Friday officially altering Russia’s constitution. His, oops l mean the new rules allow him to run for two more six-year terms, staying in power until 2036.I love that , you left in there that there’s two more elections , wow so he can run in an election two more times. Oh that’s great that he allowed the people the freedom of choice two more times! Vote for me or like the doctors who first started talking about coronavirus, you’ll accidentally fall from a window! Do you kids remember that? When the corona versus coronavirus not corona verse although it has become a universe of corona, that when the coronavirus first started appearing in Russia and doctors were sounding the alarm, I believe it was three doctors high ranking doctors that “fell” out of a high window and died. The changes are now in effect. This comes after Putin claimed victory in the vote which was widely thought to be rigged. I want to know many people died during that “ free election“. Yeah you’re not you’re not voting for him, you’re floating for him, if you speak your peace you sleep with the fishes like in the Godfather! Remember those two that were poisoned in what part of England was that. Can’t remember and then the 2people who found the perfume bottle that held the poison, oh I can’t even think about it it’s so terrible. How many Russians have sought asylum in the UK and ended up dying under mysterious circumstances. if you Google Russians found dead after the most recent election probably after every election there’s just all rules and oodles of articles and not just Russians in Russia Russians and New York Russians around the world anyways if you’re interested there’s lots of information there if you want to read it.
Kim-jong-corona …………
Well North Korea , KJU, and I guess The rumours of his death are premature, because there’s a new photo of him. And apparently they have their very first case of coronavirus and he’s declared a national emergency. I wonder how coronavirus got into North Korea might be there close relationship with China? I’m being sarcastic can you tell if my tone of voice? Someone suggested I do a podcast I think it would be hilarious if I only knew how to do that I would love to do a riddle on a podcast you could hear me doing this and you could hear my tone of voice and the sarcasm that is sometimes evidence often evidence! Not evidence evidence of a dent with a T. When the software gets mad at me it just shuts off when it won’t type the word that I’m saying it just stopped working it makes a ding and it stuck it’s like it has a temper tantrum , oh anyways you know I meant evidence and not evidence on it still think evidence with that stick with evidence let’s stick with that anyways. Do you think do you honestly believe in your heart of hearts with a close relationship that that Pyongyang has with China that this is their first case of coronavirus when the entire world has been in Fuego with this disease???? Raise your hand if you believe this isThe first case in North Korea raise your hand I’ll wait and then I’ll count your hands OK carry-on carry-on and counting and counting I don’t see any hands interesting. There’s no way that this is the first case of coronavirus in that country they are in bed with China like like let’s say Madam and any man on the planet that will have her that will pay her or rather that will pay her enough a ha ha ha ! So things must be pretty bad there for him to actually Go public about it! Not call public go public there we go! No wonder what’s going on there I want to how many people have died, have any people have been experimented on by the crazy government treatments experimental treatments etc. oh you need somebody to pray for pray for the poor people of North Korea those are brainwashed and those who are in work camps including probably some Canadians and some Americans for sure probably from other countries as well in the Commonwealth.
Hurriicant …………
This clue has two letters i’s and ends in t not e. Therefore means something more than just a hurricane. Hurry I can’t. That mean people weren’t able to evacuate in time. You know I used to say I wish we just had riddles again about the royal family. But you know MM Anon, I love that you were giving us all this world news because it’s so important and even though it takes a blank of a long time for me to research all this information, I’m well into two hours on the riddle now and I have a five clues to go, but I think it’s so important and I thank you for doing that. Hurricane Hanna roared ashore onto the Texas Gulf Coast on Saturday, bringing winds that lashed the shoreline with rain and storm surge, and even threatening to bring possible tornadoes to a part of the country trying to cope with a spike in coronavirus cases.The first hurricane of the 2020 Atlantic hurricane season made landfall at around 5 p.m. local time about 24 kilometres north of Port Mansfield, which is about 209 kilometres south of Corpus Christi and about 113 kilometres north of Brownsville. As of Saturday evening, it had maximum sustained winds of 145 km/h.
Many parts of Texas, including the area where Hanna came ashore, have been dealing with a surge in coronavirus cases in recent weeks, but local officials said they were prepared for whatever the storm might bring.(CBC) Southern Texas area struck hardest by coronavirus hit by Hurricane Hanna.
Texas officials grappling with the coronavirus are now working a second front after Hurricane Hanna made landfall on the southeastern part of the state Saturday evening and now threatens parts of the state with flooding.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Moderna………
Medina is a huge pharmaceutical corporation.Time is of the essence to provide a vaccine against this pandemic virus.
Moderna is proud to be among the many groups working to respond to this continuing global health emergency. They have outlined key milestones in their work to advance mRNA-1273, their vaccine candidate against the novel coronavirus, Covid-19. (Reuters) - Moderna Inc said on Sunday it has received an additional $472 million from the U.S. government’s Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) to support development of its novel coronavirus vaccine. Let’s pray🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 an effective vaccine comes sooner rather than later!
Daisy down………
Daisy Lowe, I’ve got Daisy down and Daisy done she got done by the law.She doesn’t waste any time! Daisy Lowe moves on with love interest number THREE in four months of lockdown as she is seen smooching a mystery man in a park PDA-fest.The model, 31, was pictured passionately kissing the handsome man just a month after she was linked to musician Christian Langdon. Daisy stepped out with Christian in June despite being under government-ordered lockdown for 10 weeks.A spokesperson for Daisy told MailOnline she and Christian were just friends, despite their cosy display during lockdown.The model dated singer Jack Peñate for six months, until March, but said she 'could not see a future with him.
Daisy Lowe risks being BANNED from driving and a £1,000 fine as she is caught texting behind the wheel while driving past the British Transport Police station.The model, 31, was seen looking down at her phone as she waited at traffic lights outside the British Transport Police station. It is illegal to hold a phone while driving and the law still applies if someone is stopped at traffic lights or waiting in traffic .Daisy, who is the daughter of singer Gavin Rossdale, (OF THE 90’s SUPERBAND , BUSH, I LOVED THEM!!! ALSO WAS MARRIED TO GWEN STEFANI NOW WITH BLAKE SHELTON, JUST TO HELP YOU KIDS OUT KNOWING WHO THIS IS).let both hands go of the wheel while she was stopped and checked her phone.According to gov.uk, people can get six penalty points as well as a £200 fine if they use a hand held phone while driving .Those who commit the offense can also be taken to court where they could potentially be banned from driving or face a £1,000 fine. Yes I’m sure £1000 fine will bankrupt her indeed not!(DM and me😁)
dog collar reunion …………………”
With the exception of I think two or three clues I’ve had to research my butt off to find this information. And you always leave me with one clue that makes me Squirrley! Now I know a dog colour is a slang name Ashley’s dog tags that are a slang name for what the military people wear around their neck their identification. So I’ve been googling every sort of reunion of every dog in soldier I can’t find anything this is a dog collar so dog collar I mean a collar is a slang term for an arrest. What to the dog do you do reunite oh I’m stuck here I truly am stuck here. but I never give up and I’m pretty sure I have found what this clue is about.
Pet dog named, Appy that went missing a YEAR ago is miraculously found 150km from home and reunited with his owners this week!☺️☺️☺️😊😊The Border collie named Appy is reunited with family 12 months after going missing.Appy disappeared from Adelaide in 2019 before turning up again this week.The beloved dog was found by a council officer 150km north of his home.How the dog managed to make the 150km trip or how he survived for the past year remain a mystery. How is that for a feel-good story with amongst all the world news! Thank you for including that even if it’s the wrong answer I’m just happy I found that story I love border collies friend of mine used to have one but he probably still does and his name is Guinness and I love that dog oh I love that dog oh so nice.
“more than kin and less than kind” …………
Oh at last we return to the Bard! This is from Hamlet. “A little more than kin, and less than kind”. Prince Hamlet’s father was murdered by his brother and he married Hamlet’s mother, your usual Shakespearean tragedy. This is Hamlet’s assessment of his relationship to the new king of Denmark, his uncle Claudius. Hamlet thoughts of Claudius are he is more than “kin” (more than a “cousin” because now a stepfather), but definitely less than “kind.” With all that’s been going on in the media with this new this ‘ book’ trash that’s being portrayed yesterday’s daily mail the entire website was full of articles. I’m not sure what your meaning by this, Harry is kin but he’s not being kind? I fully believe in Harry 100% that he’s been entrapped in this and he’s been working on behalf of her Majesty to extricate them from this horrendous situation. The obvious meaning to me, because I 100% believe in Prince Harry is that even though he is married to Madam, the word kind, one of her is he kind is he kind is he kind is he kind I’m saying that in the most childish sarcastic voice you could imagine. Even though they’re married publicly anyways, I don’t know if the divorce or an annulment has come through ,we don’t know that. As far as the public since you’re in the married and she is anything but kind and never has been , this whole book and everything she’s doing the entire time is belittling him and of course he’s having to go along with it in the public because the royal family is playing the long game. They are dealing with much more than just Madam, they’re dealing with The backers. As we know this is not a small plot to take down the monarchy this is the world issue. And as London scoop said it will involve a major case overturned in the United States and it will affect or involve the entire world, but mostly the UK the United States and Australia. Well you put that together, who lives in Australia that is playing this game? I’ll give you three hints VRG! What case legal case in the United States has been overturned? I’ll give you two hints JE! What legal case involving the UK is now underway in the United States? I’ll give you two hints GM!. It is vital now that we continue to pray for our Queen the entire family and especially Prince Harry.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
“ a three-pounder Sydney,the Gillie can smoke it” ………” Sydney, Sydney ……… SYDNEY???”
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha OK kids can you picture this oh me in my head right now picture himself standing in his waders up to his chest Fly fishing with Sydney standing by holding him up also wearing waders maybe not holding him up but being there last he fall in the middle of the river ha ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha ha ha.
If you know anything about flyfishing that is a place for flyfishing and you got to be in the middle of the river to do flyfishing and of course you don’t want to get wet so you got to wear your waders your rubber thing that you just step into they go all the way up to your chest and the straps over. hence the term so you can wade into the water. i’m not quite sure how old Sydney is but I can’t imagine he is the a young man of 25. I’m still laughing anyhow sounds like her himself vantage to bag a nice fish and Himself says the Gillies can smoke it. Well we all know the Gillies are the fisherman there , they give lessons or t help. Every year there’s a Gillies ball , which I doubt this year will happen , where the Gillies get up just up in their finest of their kilts and they have a ball at Balmoral. Some of the pictures from the past are just beautiful and they all get a dance with HMTQ. I’m not sure what’s happened to prior to poor Sydney but I have a feeling that he’s got lost in the water and being rushed down the river poor poor Sydney ha ha ha ha ha ha!

July 27/2020. Riddle #73
💜💜💜 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😊😊😊😊🌈🌈🌈🌈Thank you MM Anon🌈🌈🌈🌈💜💜💜
I am using rainbows because for a very specific reason because I think we are very near the end of our dear Prince Harry being released from the abomination this hell he’s been through!
arrivals !!
Well let��s see now this could be at the airport because of the air bridge problem with the rise in coronavirus and possible UK tourist being stranded. Two!‘s. Arrivals arrivals makes me think of a new baby. I know Vogue Williams, Pippa’s sister-in-law is very very pregnant with her girl with a girl rather and I know Sophie Turner is pregnant and I do believe they both had their little baby so I’m just gonna do a little jig over to the daily mail and a check that out for you I will be back in uno moments! Vogue Williams has been pictured with her baby girl for the first time since she gave birth last week.The model and TV personality, 34, was seen running errands with her newborn in London on Monday, five days after welcoming her second child with husband Spencer Matthews, 31, into the world. The new mother-of-two looked glamorous in a short black dress and leather lace-up boots as she loaded her daughter’s pram into the back of a taxi. Baby number one check mark ✅.Sophie Turner gives birth! Game Of Thrones star welcomes a ‘girl named Willa’ with husband Joe Jonas as proud new parents reveal they’re ‘delighted’. Just in case you’re keeping score Joe Jonas is the brother to the chat that Priyanka Chopra married. Man this is a small world that these people travelling wowza! The actress, 24, and the musician, 30, welcomed their first child in secret last week at a hospital in Los Angeles.The couple are now proud parents to a baby girl who is believed to be named Willa.News that the couple were expecting their first child together broke in February, nine months after their Vegas wedding. Arrival number to check mark ✅ two!‘s Two babies!!
HMTQ, “ ego lava manus meas”
I wash my hands of this! Her Majesty has given the go ahead and I think we can expect any day now any moment now a big headline!!! Hallelujah this is exciting!! Like in the olden days when they used to have the ,oh what’s it called ,when the guys on the horses went with those long lances on either side what the heck is that sport called ,back in the olden times oh what’s it called? I got to Google,hang on, I’ll be back. OK I’m back it’s jousting. And how they used to do it was the king and the royals would be all ,or the queen ,but it was always a king will be sitting in the royal box of course having front centre stage. They would drop a hankerchief and that’s when the two riders would start riding towards each other and trying kill each other with those big poles or whatever they call them lances. I’m not even sure what they were called. I wasn’t alive during the mediaeval times.OK kids I’m old and I’m gonna be 54 in a few days, but I was not alive during the mediaeval times, even though you might think so because I do have a lot of knowledge but I am that that’s not because I lived lived back thenHa ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha. Oh kids I love this thing to type ha ha Ha ha ha LOL and then I laughed even harder and I have to just stop I have to shut it off oh this is so funny oh man so too funny.Back to the serious I do believe her Majesty the Queen has officially dropped the handkerchief Lord Geidt has been given permission to release the hounds. She has done everything she can and she’s done with things. Now off on vacation and let the you know what hit the fan, which is actually really is with this book, but she will play her hand and she has washed her hands! Per the Latin clue! she’s usually good ,good handwashing skills during the coronavirus definitely end in Latin thank you for that MM Anon,they should write that in Latin too and in addition to English wash your hands social distanceHa ha ha ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha. Oh kids forgive me I’m just like I am having way too much fun doing these riddles in the audio format because I feel like I’m talking to each and everyone of you personally and I know that you’re fixated on my words and my facial expression, on the tone of my voice and as you read it you’re trying to imagine all of that. I’m doing my best trying my best to to make this the best experience for you all while solving these clues that again was a very long sentence but that’s OK that’s what I’m known for. I hope Madamgets a long sentence all in favour is your hand oh wow everybody’s hand just went up before almost before I finish my sentence good job kids!
“you bloody talk to them”……………
Well this is got to be Himself. I wonder if this is not meaning that Prince Harry should talk to the media. that he should announce separation or something like that. Seems to me that there would be a statement released if they were separated rather than him going public with the media. I’m thinking hard. The other way I’m going to go with, now this is something that some people will not like, this so this is not personal against anybody.OK I want to make that clear with what I’m about to say! I think this might be Prince Philip taking a hard talk with Prince Andrew and basically ordering him to talk to the FBI and law-enforcement regarding what he knows and what he doesn’t know. To be questioned and provide answers accordingly. I’m pretty sure that’s what this is. Again this is nothing personal please I love the Yorks I love the girls please please no one take this personally!
Kate cry’s lies…………
There was an article in the daily mail today from insiders and courtiers That actively denied that Madam made Catherine cried you’re in the way the fittings for the dresses for the wedding. If truth be told there was all that arrangement was done within two weeks the men’s suits the boys is rather the dresses for the girls they were all a rush job within two weeks.. There’s nothing that could make Catherine cry involving Madam just another one of her lies that she’s put out into the PR world. When she just love to have that much power over her wouldn’t she just love it oh man that would just fit her narcissistic ego publicly telling people she made Catherine cry how pathetic!
lying interview………
Surely this is not referring to the engagement interview that was years ago. Ever since everything Madam has said has been a lie. might this be Scooby Doo and who are you whatever that lady’s name is Durand I am stating they had corroborated at least every fact in the book with at least two sources and lying about that. Unusual this though usually when a book comes out the authors go on tour but so far I’ve not heard of anything happening like that. Just one side of the story? Royal expert says it’s clear Finding Freedom authors have spoken to people 'close’ to Harry and Madam as couple deny involvement in book that airs their grievances - and 'backs up what’s already been said’. Don’t believe that for a minute Harry had nothing to do with this book other than his reputation being dragged through the mud and his name being used in vain! The Duke and Duchess of Sussex last night stressed they did not contribute to the forthcoming biography. Oh I hate that they use that title they the duke of Sussex stressed nothing it is that sea hags PRPR did that stressing nothing to do with him nothing to do with him at all!Author Omid Scobie confirmed neither he nor co-writer Carolyn Durand have spoken to the royal pair. But he boasted of access to their inner circle to offer readers a unique insight into the Megxit saga. Maybe he can swing those inner circle access into being incarcerated, he could be cell buddies😄😁😁😁😁Royal historian Kate Williams said their closest confidantes ‘clearly’ spoke to “writers” of this “ book”! Well since Madam’s favourite people are her herself and when you say me myself and I except I’m pretending to be her. Those are her favourite people so those might be the sources. I could see that I could totally see 🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄that that being three separate sources yes and then there could be the duchess, the actress, the theatre 🎭 patron,the video star, the whatever that’s many many different people to interview. Wow that’s amazing that I can see that now, 😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 no she had nothing to do with it look at this now let me count this up. By my math that’s six sources so I can totally totally understand! 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄Can you guys hear this sickening crying sarcasm in my voice as I said that I wish you could because I said that as sarcastically as I’ve ever said anything in my life!!🙄🙄🙄😝😝😝😁😁😁
O ‘no!! ……………
Oh my heart bleeds for her not!! I never ever ever liked her haughtyI know everything and I’m going to tell you how to live your life approach to it whether it was her show, tv channel or her stinking magazine! OW’s, AKA ALLEGED BACKER, monthly magazine founded 20 years ago will cease printing after its December 2020 issue, according to reports. Oh doesn’t your heart just bleed for the billionaire?? Mine sure doesn’t! Although I do feel for all the people losing their jobs that I do feel for. The staff of O: The Oprah Magazine, which was created by Winfrey and Hearst Communications, was informed of the decision on Friday.The report came the day after the president of Hearst Magazines, which publishes the magazine, resigned after being accused of sexual harassment. Why does everything have to come down to perverse sexual behaviour? Everything, it’s just it just has seeped into every nook and cranny and that’s the way evil is, it will find its way in through the smallest weakest spaces.Which is precisely why we must be ever ever on guard, always on guard lest evil enter.
one man and his dog……………
So it was in the beginning, so it has been throughout, and so it continues now, Harry has been at Nottingham Cottage with his dog whose name none of us know because he doesn’t want Madam to know! Madam has been dealt with, she is done, she did her own self in with this book,she is gone and things are official! Harry is back in the fold, with his dog, where he belongs, back where we wanted him and soon it will be public very very soon. I’m not giving a day or time but l am saying imminently! Trust me on this if you’ve ever trusted me before I’ve done probably now this is 73 probably close to 300 riddles and the way I’m reading these clues I’m pretty sure I’m right!
a foggy moggy………
Now I know a moggy is a cat. Foggy can mean foggy as in weather or foggy in a persons thinking. there’s an article in the daily mail I’m good I just put it here. But I don’t know if that’s right because the other clues are so serious and I don’t I mean cats aren’t great, they’re awesome they’re really awesome but I don’t know if this is right. 😁DM.No fat cats here! This Moggy loves to lie on his owner’s vibrating fitness plate - with hilarious results. Cyacya the cat was filmed by his owner rocking up and down on the machine. The owner Asami Niwa said the cat had learned to turn it on himself in Tokyo, Japan.Footage shows the cat rolling around on the machine for a full-body massage.DM😁 But this makes no sense with all these other clues that are so serious this makes no sense that there would be a clue in here just about a cat using an exercise machine. It’s got to be something else on my mind is just thinking thinking thinking and as I always say there’s always always a clue or two that drive me Squirrley and a couple have already been this riddle entire riddle has about four or five of them and I’ve managed to crack two of them and I am not going to stop until I get there with what I think is the proper answer. I have it now I have it now and if you kids go to the daily mail you got to see this video this is unbelievable.
DM😁Feline scared? Spooky moment security camera shows moggy being followed by a 'phantom cat’.Juliette Bird, 53, and Deanna Crawte, 28, saw the 'ghost’ of a cat on their CCTV. Neighbour’s cat Topsy appeared to have a spectral feline following close behind.Their neighbour then told them that her other cat Liquorice had died recently. Seriously on the video you see the cat walking and you can see like a ghostly foggy image of a cat behind right behind him on the CCTV footage it is freaky I’m gonna see if I can put the link in here if F what’s this called Tumblr will will let it go allow it anyways if not go to the daily mail because it is absolutely freaky and it is a foggy moggy.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8549355/Feline-scared-Spooky-moment-security-camera-shows-moggy-followed-phantom-cat.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490
“ let’s go shooting Sydney “………… “ with guns sir” ……… “ lots of bloody guns” ……………” O dear”
Oh I’m already in stitches raining this oh Prince Philip wants to go shooting Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha! Picture this they’re all kitted out in their flannel, in their leather and all that cute stuff that they were up in 🏴. Sydney, poor Sydney , poor Sydney, Poor Sydney is asking with guns Sir, like with actual guns sir? As he’s asking this, he’s thinking of 1 million places where he can hide all the guns and 1 million excuses to give that would be excepted by Himself,ha ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂.Himself replies,so you can read the reply,as many as possible, poor Sydney is trembling absolutely travelling is terrified I can just see this in my mind ha ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha .🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

you know. sometimes i love something a lot so i need to scream about the things that piss me off about it. i don’t think this is a particularly negative post but it’s just like sheer frustration and if you dont get some satisfaction from articulating your frustration into tumbler dot coms longposts and destroying the capital of this website because you are not a gemini sun then like fair i guess feel free to disregard this. tonbokiris kiwame is cool go look at that.
now to the lukewarm tea ive been simmering for five years. the one thing i always think about all the time is that tkrb is a popular game despite itself. the piss poor gameplay with only the barest of bare QoL in the five years its been up, the seeming complete lack of direction and the frankly nonexistent worldbuilding is held up purely because of its attention to detail and reverence to the original culture and history of the swords combined with some very good character design and subtle but nuanced character writing that can be openly interpreted. just enough flavour to imply something larger but chickening out on actually making anything y’know. concrete. basically allowing the fans to draw their own conclusions. but even then a game like that would not survive cause there have been countless, hundreds of games with high quality and fervent attention to detail and respect for the source material that just died completely because they have such little to actually offer in terms of engagement. i think the main thing that bugs me about tkrb is that it has one of THE most creative, dedicated and strong fanbases of this genre of game who go out of their way to engage with any and all of the content and the devs seem kind of oblivious to this.
in comparison to modern gacha style games, touken ranbu releases barely any new content and frequently recycles content but somehow it’s still relatively popular with approx. 1mil active players daily but the maddening thing is that tkrb can reach much MUCH further. the fans are there, the curiosity is there, it’s just the game content is not fucking there. it does not put the effort into commissioning seasonal art, pushing new events with actual plotline/story content, creating promotional materials, tie-ins etc. but somehow its still in the top 5 comiket circles for nearly five fuckin years straight. here are your badley compiled receipts: c89(w2015), c90(s2016), c91(w2016), c92(s2017), c93(w2017), c94(s2018), c95(w2018), c96(s2019)
it can launch itself from laughably low in the appstore ratings, hovering in the middle of the 200′s to TOP 30s in the appstore at the flick of a switch. what is this magic button that fucking quadruples revenue and skyrockets your app into the top 50 grossing apps? 3/4 of your characters getting static CGs that you cannot use at all anywhere in the game but will do a powerpoint transition and appear for 5 seconds at login. oh and like a few free mats i guess. and i kid you not it fuckin worked.
wanna know why that worked? it’s cause otherwise characters, especially fan favourites just don’t get anything at all. it’s like most characters outside of the very popular ones rarely get new art, new recollections, new anything outside of their kiwame upgrade which is more often than not years down the line and only recently, four years in, they decided to add alternate costumes but even then there’s a catch which has me feeling some kind of way.
and yes, i fully understand that tkrb is a multi-media franchise, i get that it’s got its fingers in so many pies like the stageplay, musicals, various manga anthologies, the animes, hell its even got live action but man, would it hurt to give some love in game? i’m not asking them to go full fgo route and commission the industry creme de la creme to make 6 full CE illustrations, lots of promo art and tonnes of new merch every single month. but the fact is for such a big franchise, reusing the same sprite art on nearly every piece of official merch, going so far as to add NEW costume art which is just the heads of the old default sprites edited onto new bodies? it screams cost cutting, it screams lazy, the path of minimum effort. it’s almost like the game itself and the original materials are an absolute afterthought at this point with only the most dedicated hanging on to it. i guarantee that the majority of people still playing tkrb are the committed day1 players and the actual rekijou cause it’s just painfully offputting to new fans, with other fans even going out of their way to specify the game is not integral to enjoying the series which sucks, but it’s true.
its a real damn shame to think that something you are so invested in is not particularly invested in itself. sometimes, just sometimes i wish they dev team for tkrb was more hands-on, more adventurous, more willing to listen to players, invest in the game and genuinely try and make the game the best it can be. i’m not asking for balls to the wall summer events, beautiful animated CMs from the likes of the industries best animators, i’m not asking for pages of supplemental lore compiled into books, character backstory novels or whatever i’m just asking for the lore and the characters that we love to sometimes occasionally be remembered in the actual game outside of like ... the two years between their kiwame and the vague possibility of a recollection. i want to feel like this game puts as much effort into itself as the fans do towards it.
it’s a painful truth but there’s one shining light which is that the fandom for tkrb is genuinely one of the most committed and transformative ones ive ever seen. i have never been involved with a fandom that varies so widely and puts in so much effort for these characters and this world. tkrb exists solely as a popular franchise due to the sheer legwork of the fans carrying it on their backs collaboratively. ultimately, tkrb is very very lore-light, there’s so much thats missing and the characters in-game rarely rarely interact with each other. the characters are contained solely in however many voice lines they get at implementation, their kiwame letters, and their updates kiwame lines and the only interaction they get with other swords is recollections or depending on the sword, the odd custom sparring lines.
but despite that there has been so much fan effort to explore everything in so many different varied ways, and amazingly there are certain tropes, relationships, lore etc. that have started off fanon and become canon. the fan community, especially the fanartists, doujins, writers, animators etc. being given a small indulgence by the anime is one of my favourite things about tkrbs relationship with its fanbase. that’s not to say that the fans dont give back in kind a hundred fold.
there’s so much i love about tkrb fans going out of their way to go SEE historical swords in japan, single-handedly reforging swords using crowdfunding and revitalising lots of small-town tourism having real world impact. shit makes me unbelievably happy. the stage plays and musicals are always met with warm reception and are always well attended and even though its hard to access, there are lots of western fans who have dived into a whole new MEDIUM that most of us arent really familiar with but out of their love for tkrb theyve done that. they have hosted the musical as far out as india and france, making tkrb a truly worldwide franchise and there theyve met full seats! as far out as india! then theres the fantranslators, who always have the drive the commitment and energy for the thankless work, the wiki always always is well maintained and they have new content up so fast, and there are so many people willing to help you out. even when crunchyr*ll got hanamaru s2 (i think) a week late and we were left without subs for the premier episode for a whole ass week, fantranslators who had never subbed before stepped up to translate a whole episode for FREE, encoding, subbing and timing it all despite never having done so just so others could understand the episode faster than cr*nchy themselves could. even, as well, it’s made so many history nerds out of a whole bunch of people, it’s created an appreciation for nihontou and japanese history that would otherwise probably never be in their orbit because of how inaccessible it is, especially in english. even on a personal note, i started learning japanese primarily so i could understand tkrb and the history behind it better and to read jp fanart/interact with fanartists.
no matter what, i am forever warmed by how much i love tkrb and its fanbase and im glad that tkrb is still going strong, even despite itself sometimes and i hope that moving on tkrb tries new things, and becomes better for everyone.
#rentxt#i started off grouchy but now my heart is warm#thats just how touken ranbu works babey#you know sometimes i think about how tkrb fans reforged hotarumaru and i get teared up

Elise Cooper Interviews Loreth Anne White
Beneath Devil’s Bridge by Loreth Anne White is based on a true crime podcast. It has so many twists and turns readers may get dizzy.
The plot has true crime podcaster Trinity Scott looking to make a name for herself, and her brand-new series may just be the one to make her a household name. The subject is Clayton Jay Pelley who more than two decades ago confessed to the brutal murder of teenage student Leena Rai. He was her guidance counselor and a respected member of the community. But why he killed her has always been a mystery.
In a series of exclusive interviews from prison, Clayton discloses to Trinity the truth about what happened that night beneath Devil’s Bridge. It’s not what anyone in the Pacific Northwest town of Twin Falls expects. Clayton says he didn’t do it.
As her listeners increase and ratings skyrocket, Trinity is missing a key player in the story: Rachel Walczak, the retired detective who exposed Pelley’s twisted urges and put him behind bars. She’s not interested in playing Clayton’s game. But after Trinity reveals secrets about Rachel’s family the former detective begins to question everything, she thinks she knows about the past case.
There are many layers to this story. Intertwining the setting makes the mystery even more riveting. The two timelines enhance the plot with the podcast being in the present and Rachel’s observations in the past. Readers will be kept guessing as the author brings in suspect after suspect.
Elise Cooper: How did you get the idea for the story?
Loreth Anne White: The story grew out of the threads of a horrific true crime that occurred in a nearby part of my world. My eldest daughter was not far apart in age from the victim, and I saw echoes of the circumstances of that crime in my own small town. I suspect a lot of mothers did. And the unsettling emotions never left me. In crafting a work of fiction based on the facts of that crime I wanted to convey the idea that: If it takes a village—a community—to raise a child, does it also take a village to kill one? When something like this happens, are we not all a little complicit, even in our silence, or in just looking the other way?
EC: You said it was inspired by a true crime-what part of the book is true and what is not?
LAW: Elements drawn from the real-life case include the manner of the victim’s death beneath a bridge, how she was found in the water, and the autopsy/coroner’s findings, which were also detailed in court. Aspects of the victimology are gleaned from the true crime as well. A Russian rocket did in fact fall to earth on the night of that murder—we watched it streak across the sky above the mountains where we live when the terrible thing was happening under a bridge not that far away. The rocket exploding across the sky anchored things in the memories of witnesses and others involved, and I used this concept in the fictional re-working of the crime.
EC: Why this setting?
LAW: I moved the crime to a fictional setting based on a small town I know well, about a 45 minute drive from where I live. I’ve watched this town over the years morphing (not always comfortably) from a resource-based logging and railway community with a stinking pulp mill across the water into a tourism/recreation gateway for skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking, hiking, and sightseeing. I’ve seen the challenges faced by old timers who were thrust into an increasingly diverse and younger environment with different values on everything from environment to climate and politics. I felt that their battle in the heart of this town echoed the circumstances around the crime.
EC: Why Devil’s Bridge
LAW: The name of my fictional bridge, Devil’s Bridge is designed to play with the fairytale concept of a troll, or something ‘evil’ or dangerous, that lurks below a bridge/crossing from one side to another. Again, the idea is that bad things can come out of uneasy transitions – from youth to adulthood, from resource town to something else … etc. I’d originally been working with a different title and my wonderful agent suggested I use the name of my bridge.
EC: How would you describe the personality of Rachel?
LAW: Rachel is every mother who wants to protect her child but even with best intentions, things don’t always work out. She’s the older woman in the mirror of my younger Trinity. Both are sleuths. One represents the past, the other the future. One is trying to expose the past, another is possibly trying to protect it. Again, this is an echo of what the town itself is transitioning through.
EC: How would you describe the personality of Maddy?
LAW: Maddy is representative of many teenage girls trying to fit in, to belong, and making mistakes, then trying to deal with the repercussions they have created through their actions. She’s also unsettled by problems in her parents’ relationship.
EC: How would you describe the killer?
LAW: The killer is also a creation of circumstances. The community in which the killer lives has fostered these circumstances.
EC: How would you describe Clay?
LAW: Clay struggles with mental illness. He struggles with trying to be well, and to be whole, and to be good person, but he can’t get there and does untold damage to others in the process.
EC: How would you describe Leena?
LAW: Leena is every teen who can’t fit into a mold created by a society. She is misunderstood, and lonely, and wishes to be loved and admired. Sadly, being cut out of the teenage herd like this sets her up to become easy prey to a predator.
EC: In the book questions are asked-can you answer them:
Why does a seemingly normal person suddenly cross the line into violent crime?
LAW: I think the story tries to answer why a person crosses the line into violent crime. It’s not necessarily sudden. It can be insidious. It can happen because too many people look the other way in the face of small warning signs. It can happen because a narrative is created in which it becomes easier to cross that line.
EC: Why that particular victim?
LAW: The victim is an outsider for a number of reasons, and this, combined with her desperate need to be accepted and loved makes her vulnerable.
EC: This book is about secrets, walls, truth, and how far would a parent go to protect their loved ones? Please explain
LAW: Sometimes that first tiny lie, even by omission can be so easy. Ignoring those little niggling warning signs can seem like no big deal. But once the lines are crossed, the human brain can create seemingly rational justifications or alternate explanations for truths we’d rather not see. And then it goes too far.
EC: You explore many issues in this book: Can you explain why a certain issue was chosen?
Porn addiction, Alcohol addiction, Affairs, Sex with a minor, Hypnosis, Bullying
LAW: In many ways the complex issues of addiction (porn and alcohol), extramarital affairs, sex with a minor, and bullying can all be boiled down (in some form) to humans trying to cope, albeit in maladjusted ways—with terrible loss, grief, PTSD, loneliness, lack of support or love or friendship, or belonging, or with change, or betrayal. The hypnosis is a device with which to illustrate how, in digging into the unconscious, we can sometimes learn more about the truths that drive these destructive behaviors. Truths we can hide even from our own consciousness. In some ways digging into the psyche is like Trinity digging into the truths behind the old crime, and the truths and lies that drove the town.
EC: A heads up about your next book?
LAW: Thank you for asking! My next book is The Patient’s Secret that comes out in March 2022. The backstory for this one was also inspired, at the heart, by a horrific true crime, and has an element of true crime as a narrative thread. It’s a domestic suspense/procedural which my agent describes as LITTLE FIRES EVERYWHERE meets BIG LITTLE LIES. A family drama, stirred with jealous, backstabbing, suspicious suburban moms and murder. I like to think of it as a poisoned candy apple: a promise of glossy entertainment/candy on the outside, but with a bitter core of a dark and toxic truth.
THANK YOU!!

Article 5: Values, Truth, and Politics
The concepts of values, truth, and politics essentially vary from person to person, yet when tying those concepts into sustainability one can begin to see some overlap. What we define out values and truths as generally determine our outlook on politics. These opinions can also aid or prevent us from fostering sustainability in our own lives. Values tend to fall under an Extrinsic or an Intrinsic focus. Extrinsic meaning that one’s values focus on money, power, and status. Intrinsic meaning that one’s values focus on self-acceptance, awareness, and a connection to others. Building off of that, it is important to keep in mind that Intrinsic and Extrinsic values are not a one or the other option. It is completely possible to keep both of these values in mind while building your foundation of truths. In my opinion I wish that we could live in a society that mainly focused on Intrinsic values although this is not always realistic. For example, societies such as Gaviotas had Intrinsic values at the forefront with empathetic and connection-based innovations. Yet, these innovations still needed to be created in a business setting, therefore they needed funding from groups such as the UN. When this funding was suspended most of these projects were as well. It goes to show the funding, or the Extrinsic values are crucial to the operation to any sustainable system. When these values are applied on a personal level it is clear that it will effect one’s truths, and ability to foster sustainability in their own lives. If one was to simply focus on either Extrinsic or Intrinsic values, they would fall short in certain categories. This lack of balance would force them out of a “closed loop” lifestyle, thus making a sustainable way of living very difficult. Much like a work life balance, if your forefront is Extrinsic values you will not have time for yourself of those you love. This will make life somewhat half hearted and upsetting. Meanwhile if you only focus on Intrinsic values, you could perhaps spend so much time worrying about others, that you are unable to care for yourself physically or financially. In order to serve as a change maker on a larger scale one needs to take a balanced approach to life and maintain order in their personal relations, as well as their relations to others. In many ways these types of values are often viewed in a political light. This is because in many ways they represent the core values of political parties in the united states. The Extrinsic values being related to the republican party, along with Intrinsic values being related to the Democratic party.
In many ways the US political system supports the institutionalization of these Intrinsic and Extrinsic values. Although it may seem improbable these two vastly different political structures and value systems can support our mission for increasing global sustainability in many ways. For example, the Kingdom of Bhutan is a small country in South Asia located near the Himalayas. Bhutan functions as a constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary form of government. While Bhutan has one of the smallest economies globally, it is also one of the fastest growing with an annual economic growth rate of roughly 22%. Although, Bhutan attempts to look at the economy from a different perspective from the rest of the world instead of using the perspective of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) they view it as Gross Domestic Happiness (GDH). They focus on preserving happiness and biodiversity, while other countries focus on exporting goods and generating profits. An example of one of this is Costa Rica, a country that functions with a democratic republic government. As a result of this Costa Rica focuses on GDP and economic growth over conservation of natural resources. The main driver of their economy being tourism, which unfortunately causes damage to biodiversity. Additionally, Costa Rica suffers from a decently high unemployment rate, floating around 8%. This is a major draw back not only for their GDP but also for their youth as well. Many young people find themselves unemployed, and even worse many are not involved in a training field that would eventually lead to a job. Therefore, their system focuses on a short-term economic burst based off of other countries good fortune. As many people will not travel if they are not making good money, or if their economy is not doing well. Unfortunately, it appears Costa Rica has good intentions but focused mostly on short term Extrinsic values. This makes the system somewhat incomplete, thus resulting in a low GDP and high unemployment. Bhutan, while it is a very small country still manages to thrive by putting sustainability first and taking a balanced approach to both Intrinsic and Extrinsic values. The main takeaway from these examples is that it is possible to combine these two vastly different political structures and value systems. Thus, supporting the mission for increasing global sustainability. While focusing on the topic of global sustainability, it makes one wonder if sustainable development is a universal human right as some countries definitely do not perceive it that way.
When reflecting on universal human rights, it reminds me of the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). This declaration encompasses the rights of all people across different countries with various core values. This declaration claims that: “All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights . . . Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family” (United Nations - 1, 25). When reviewing these articles, it is clear none of them directly address global sustainability. Yet, when reviewing sections that state each person has the right to an adequate standard of living, I cannot help but think global sustainability plays a role in that, and that sustainable development is a universal human right. To have an adequate standard of living one should have shelter, food, and water. With climate change becoming an even greater threat those resources are becoming scarce. Yet, I believe it is the responsibility of all countries to preserve the landscape for a better future. In order to do this, it is important all countries become more sustainably focused. Although, based off of the current US political landscape I am not certain that sustainable development will be considered a universal human right before it is too late.
In the current US political landscape, climate change and sustainability are directly associated. As a result of this, climate change is considered a partisan issue. One that is embraced by some political parties but, denied by others. I personally believe sustainability is not a partisan issue, as I feel almost all things are not specifically partisan issues. I feel in many ways we make thoughts, opinions, and actions partisan related. When in fact we all want the same thing at the end of the day: a place to live, some food to eat, and our loved ones healthy. When we boil life down to these small arbitrary concepts it creates division. As a result, that division creates even more division because there are always extremists representing groups, specifically political ones. This creates stereotypes and biases, then when someone claims they are on one side or another; we immediately either praise there decision (because it is similar to ours) or take it as a personal dig (because it opposes ours). When reflecting on climate change, and sustainability I feel it does need to be embraced across political structures. This is because no matter what core values a group focuses on, we need a planet to survive. If we are extinct our values mean nothing, and we will not be able to pass on any sort of legacy. In addition to this, there are various economic advantages to sustainability especially in a free market economy. This is because it is a new field, that can be heavily advanced with technology and new ideas. If an open market set its goals for sustainability, innovation would skyrocket, and money would be flowing all throughout the economic structure. Looking back on communities such as Gaviotas, it is clear that if there is a demand for sustainability, a supply will rise to meet it. If citizens focus on buying and creating sustainable innovation the advancements that could be made would be astronomical. It would change our way of living sure, but it would be for the best in the long run. I believe that a country that puts its issues aside and focuses on sustainability, is not only honoring the human rights of all its people, but people across the globe.

Marketing the tourism by complementing good steel with knife-edge – Share Market News Live
See on Scoop.it - COMPARE RISK COMMUNICATION
Marketing the tourism by complementing good steel with knife-edge October 25 23:21 2019 Low-priced products and low-quality services should no longer be the focus when marketing the tourism, as tourists are willing to pay for better products and services. Key terms: 2019 World Culture and Tourism Forum; Ctrip; entry and travel. Travel Daily – During the 2019 World Culture and Tourism Forum, James Liang, Co-founder and Chairman of the Board of Ctrip Group, suggested China’s tourism to change its promotional slogan from “Beautiful China” to “Friendly China” to the overseas markets. Responding to Liang’s suggestion, some commented that “Friendly China” was slightly polite and China should draw lesson from other slogans such as “Amazing Malaysia” and “Must Visit Korea”. Some also suggested their own slogans. Among others, “Embracing China” and “Hospitable China”. Whatever the slogans are, each travel company wishes to promote and market China. Thanks to the reflection and innovation of tourism businesses, China’s figures of tourist entry and travel broke through its bottleneck. And many more people across the world are able to witness the attraction of China. The forum titled Promoting and Marketing Entry and Travel in China on October 24th brought together key figures of tourism industry for an in-depth discussion. Among others, Lin Zheng, Founder & CEO of Beijing Archetour International Travel Services Co., Ltd; Kris Van Goethem, Managing Director of Thomas Cook China; Kitty Huang, Vice President – Customer Loyalty & Revenue Generation, Greater China, Wyndham Hotel Group; Zhonghua Ma, Deputy General Manager of Xi’an Xianyang International Airport; and Thomas Zhang, International Business Office Manager of Capital Airlines. The discussion was hosted by Joseph Wang, Chief Commercial Officer of TravelDaily. Low-priced travel to give way to more valuable services During the forum, host Joseph Wang showed a piece of newspaper which read: “US$99 for 4D3N in Xi’an or 5D4N in Mount Hua.” The audiences showed their contempt for such a low price. Lin Zheng put it directly: “You are the angel of justice, if you fight a war against cheap travels!” Zheng also exposed that she was brought into five shops for shopping in one morning during a low-priced travel tour in Hong Kong. She did not get to experience the joy of traveling. “It can be said that low-priced travel is now a scar of the business of entry and travel.” “It is not that the tourists are reluctant to spend money. It is just that they don’t want to spend money unnecessarily. Places which are worthwhile for them to spend money, they are still willing spend,” said Zhonghua Ma. His words could be revealing the thought of many. If this is the case, what are the ways to promote tourism and what valuable services to be introduced to tourists? Can you do both while also helping businesses make more money? According to Kris van Goethem, Thomas Cook had long abandoned conventional travel routes. The company basically sells customized travel packages to visitors entering and traveling in China. “Individual visitors make up of much of the customized tour business. It is very tiring for us as each guest has his or her own travel routes. But we are excited about it. Guests on customized tours spend longer time in China. Governmental and business visit groups brought forth more consumption opportunities when they visit for meetings and activities and sporting events, which means we make better profits.” Kris van Goethem’s idea about longer staying time struck a chord with Kitty Huang. Huang hoped to extend tourists’ staying time in the hotel by giving free experiences for top-rated members, or selling valuable and ready-to-use products to tourists coming into China. Thomas Zhang offered his two cents on aviation part. Firstly, raise the price of air tickets, such as adjusting the prices of overall economy seats upward, or providing more business-class seats. Secondly, increase supplementary income on top of air ticket sale. Among services to earn more income, picking up and dropping off tourists; prioritized check-in services; transferring luggage; and selling gate tickets and one-day-tour packages. New means to replace inefficient conventional promotional methods Better products need to be promoted by better marketing means. “Basically it was done through phone calls in the earlier years, when it comes to conventional local travel marketing tools. But now, it is extravagant. Emailing is another method. I once did a research and investigation. When a tour group decided to go for a trip, from communication to making the trip itself, you need to exchange 100 to 200 emails. This is really inefficient. On top of that, there is a high cost to win customers, and you don’t have many channels,” Zheng felt slightly helpless. Kris van Goethem also shared what he observed: the marketing effect of some travel mart events became weaker. “A large number of people were busy working. But it was aimless. Previously, when you visit a country and you meet with three main suppliers. And you strike the business deal with that country. But now, the services become scattered and you need to see many small companies. This is a conventional way of running business. But still, it is more efficient than you standing on the stage promoting tour packages for three days.” According to Huang, Wyndham as an international hotel group runs its own sales and marketing department. The company needs to educate their staff members about Chinese culture before they could promote and introduce China’s tour packages. And hotels could not introduce tourist spots by themselves. Cooperation is needed from the tourist spots’ authorities and government officials and airline companies. Huang said this is the way to market tourism of a travel destination. Speaking of current marketing means to promote local travel, Lin Zheng thought of sourcing business through online travel agencies. Difficulty in luring customers is still the biggest problem faced by conventional travel companies. Even when they advertise through Google and Ctrip, the cost is still stubbornly high as advertisers charge higher and higher. Wyndham gave more weight to reward program. “Customers are allowed to accumulate credits to exchange for a product in a local hotel. When you reach a certain grade, you can go for an experience trip. These are the methods to promote local travel in China and increase sale figures for our hotels,” said Huang. Thomas Zhang also shared a method currently tested by Capital Airlines. “We opened a route plying Portugal and Xi’an. This is the only direct route between China and Portugal. Based the route, airport and travel agencies can work with each other to increase the chance of luring customers,” Zhang added. “But it is obvious that the chance to secure ‘the only direct flight’ is hard to come by.” Borrowing the experience of neighboring Japan, Zhang said that Japan attract entry and travel tours by printing advertisements on newspapers, which are distributed to each household for free. They aimed to attract elder potential tourists. “The method looks conventional but the outcome seems to be fairly good.” Slowdown of entry and travel isn’t a weakness: market the tourism by complementing good steel with knife-edge During his speech on October 23, James Liang said that slowdown in entry and travel was a big weakness in the short run for Chinese economy. And the weakness reflected the overall lack of China’s soft power. But many begged to differ. Lin Zheng was one of those who had different opinion. “Did entry and travel industry slow down the development of Chinese economy? Is our industry that significant in the economy?” According to Zheng, 2007 was the best year for China’s entry and travel. A reference to 2007 China’s Tourism Statistics published China National Tourism Administration provided an insight. In 2007, number of tourists entered and traveled in China: 132 million people. Income of international tourism: 41.9 billion US dollar. Number of local tourists: 1.61 billion people. Total income of China’s tourism: 1.1 trillion Chinese yuan. “Within twelve years, China’s tourism saw a drastic change. We have skyrocketing local demands when people become rich. The demand is very strong. The portion of entry and travel becomes lower in overall ratio. This is normal. But it doesn’t mean the part has become a weak point.” Given such a situation, the government should not play down the challenges by saying that “it is normal”. When the market has limited budget, they should spend money wiser on promotional and marketing tools. From the perspective of aviation, Thomas Zhang opined that culture and tourism board could make good use of existing flight routes to work with authorities of the destinations. They should also cooperate with airline companies and airports, as well as foreign tourism bureaus and government institutes to promote more quality products. From the perspective of airport, Zhonghua Ma has in recent years worked with culture and tourism boards of provincial and municipal levels. They organized press conferences earlier to introduce new air routes and invited media outlets of the destinations to do their promotional work. It did not spend much but the method is worthwhile in the long run as it brought together airline routes and tourism industry. Lin Zheng offered a direct idea. “Invest your money on increasing GDP and tourist figures. Your marketing is a hoax when you earn the exposure but brings not actual economic benefits.” Kitty Huang was also frank about her suggestion. She said: “Stick to the market. Spend some money on the positioning of a destination. Look for consultation company and local resources. Understand why your city is different from other cities.” Kris van Goethem was spot on when he mentioned visa problems, the biggest headache of all. He said: “Foreigners are exempted from visa application when they enter and transit within 144 hours. But you need more than that. Transit visas are good for business travelers. But how about ordinary travel groups? Visa problem is the most important of all. Solve this problem and other matters will fall into place.” A series of events are being held as part of WCTF 2019, including the “Night of Xi’an” — Promotion Conference for Cultural Tourism, the Opening Ceremony of the 2019 WCTF, Forum on Internationalized Development of Tourism in Xi’an, a Theme Forum on Inbound Tourism Development and Signing Ceremonies for Co-operation, Theme Forums on Intelligence-Driven Destination Marketing Strategy, on Contributions of Shared Accommodation to the Global Economy, and on Development of Culture and Tourism, Yo-Yo Ma — The Bach Project in Xi’an Concert, the Ctrip Gorgeous Autumn in China — Beautiful Xi’an Autumn Tourism Festival, and the Xi’an Simple Life Festival.

Toptal Scholarship Blog Post ( Wish me luck!)
• Your vision to change the world
By business idea is to start a social media platform that highlights the positive achievements and implementations (of positive ideas) from individuals and/ or groups on the continent of Africa and surrounding islands. Highlighted achievements of marginalized populations on the continent or in the diaspora are especially crucial. This platform will be bi lingual, both in English and French. My vision is to change the international narrative that has been created for Africans, by non-Africans. For the first time in modern history, Africans can be able to create and dictate their own global narrative. Ultimately bringing business to the continent so that it can flourish the way it needs to. The continent is rich in so many natural resources, yet the poorest in the world. The narrative that has been projected internationally is that of: poverty, starvation, war, ethnic cleansing, gender inequality, corruption, lack of education, and extremist behavior. These are some of the many negative issues that historical have continued to be brought into the international spotlight about the continent of Africa. Though there is some truth to all of these narratives; these are not the only narratives of Africa. These narratives are not only synonymous to the continent of Africa, but also to the other five of the six inhabitable continents. Africans need the space and time to create their own narrative for the rest of the world to see. I would choose to kick start this idea on an Instagram profile through visual stories and photos. Eventually I would like to start a YouTube channel that will stream full episodes (up to 30 minutes). Positive achievements in culture, food, language, the arts, sciences, mathematics, education, healthcare and nutrition, tourism, development, gender equality, sustainability, business, and technology; will be some many sectors highlighted on this platform. The objective of each episode would be show how individual(s) are making a positive impact in their respective field(s) and community. And, how this impact is shaping positive change on a continental scale. Eventually, my ultimate vision is to have a television show broadcasted internationally on six of the seven continents. Through this television show. The world can and might change their negative views of Africa (and sometimes Africans).
• How you believe you can accomplish your goals
I believe I can accomplish my goals. I can accomplish my goals through hard work, determination, perseverance, mentor-ship, education, and financial support. Financial support is crucial in my completing my undergraduate education this December (2019). Receiving the Toptal Scholarship will help with to accomplish this and further skyrocket my career. As it will help me create space and take opportunities that I otherwise would not be able to due to lack of finances. Like paying travel and other business-related expenses to start my business that I mentioned previously. I also would like to attend French school so that I can become proficient in the language. I feel that it is imperative for the work that I want to do in Africa. Along with English, there are a lot of former French colonies in Africa. I feel like I can reach the masses being proficient in both languages; which are also the working languages of the United Nations. Obtaining a Bachelor’s degree in Nutrition and Dietetics is a huge part of my vision. I believe this degree will allow me to work globally. Nutrition is a vital part of every culture, society, and country. The societal implementation of healthy, nutritiously adequate food practices is a global goal that every country strives to achieve. For the direction that I want to take with my career, it is also imperative for me continue with graduate studies. I plan on obtaining a Master of Arts degree in International Development. With this degree I believe I can further travel the world and network with like minded people who want to shape and shift global narrative of peoples and cultures (including marginalized) that have been projected by powers and systems not of their own (and underrepresented). People who want to make positive global changes in various sectors which includes: health and nutrition, education, technology, business, tourism, culture, and arts, just to mention some. Ultimately, surrounding myself with by positive individuals that supports, inspire, and are mentor me to their best capacity. Investing in a good camcorder and or phone to capture my stories is very important is a very important part of my visual storytelling. I also would like to take a filming and photography course at a local college to get better with my skills in shoot, filming, and script writing.
• Support and mentor ship, you need to accomplish your goals
I think it is so important that I can get mentor-ship from the right individual that understands my vision and wants to help me execute it, but most importantly believes in it. Someone who can push me beyond my limits and inspire me to do and be greater. This person would need to understand the business, social, and historical climate of various African countries. As well be very familiar with traditions and cultures of various countries. Preferably a female entrepreneur of African descent that is either doing business in Africa solely, or in addition in other continents. It is preferable that my future mentor have several international business connections. This would help me immensely in networking with people who could potentially invest in my vision or provide me additional guidance. I would also be very happy if this person is familiar with grant writing, or the grant writing process. This is a skill that I seek to acquire immediately to help to fund my business, and future business ventures that will be linked to this initial one that I am starting. Besides international business connections, having connections to international organizations like the United Nations, World Health Organization, and USAID, just to name a few; could create more opportunities in the expansion on my business on a global scale. Last, but no the least, having connecting to the broadcasting world make a smoother transition from Instagram and YouTube, broadcast T.V. smoother. The ultimate and eventual goal is to have the TV show that will be aired on six of the seven continents on local and/ or cable tv. Having it aired on platform like Netflix, might even be a better alternative.

Condo Hotels Offer Means to Invest in Dubai, World's Fastest Growing City
Have you ever thought to yourself, "If only I'd bought land in Orlando pre-Disney?" Or how about, "I wish I owned a piece of The Strip in Las Vegas?" Just imagine where you'd be today if only you could have foreseen the future of these exciting cities.
Well don't give up now. It's not too late for all real estate investment opportunities. The trick is just to find the next Orlando or Las Vegas and invest now.
DUBAI, SHINING STAR OF THE MIDDLE EAST
So where's today's best opportunity? It's a little-known city that is rapidly becoming the shining star of the Middle East - Dubai.
Dubai is one of the seven United Arab Emirates, Floor sanding Leamington Spa and it's been noted as the fastest-growing city on the planet. In fact, it has all the makings of a blockbuster success of epic proportions. Here are a few of the accomplishments and projects underway that are helping to put this city on the map:
· Burj Al-Arab - The only seven-star hotel in the world
· Burj Dubai - Tallest tower in the world
· Mall of Arabia - Largest shopping mall in the world
· Palms Jebel Ali - Two largest manmade islands, with resorts and entertainment venues, just off the Dubai coast
· Dubailand - A collection of six ultra-modern theme parks including 45 mega-projects and 200 entertainment projects in development designed to create a tourism venue nearly three times the size of all of Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando.
· Jebel Ali Port - Largest manmade port in the world
· Sky-walk - Longest foot bridge in the world
· World-class Sporting Events - Dubai World Cup (the world's richest horse race), Dubai Desert Classic (Golf) and Dubai Rugby Sevens
· Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) - Proposed financial hub for the entire Middle East
· Dubai's Airport - Expansion underway to be able to handle 45 million passengers a year by 2018.
· Tax Incentives - 100% tax-free business environment
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?
You can participate in Dubai's growth. Consider investing in one of its to-be-built, five-star condo hotels. Available now are pre-construction opportunities to purchase condos hotel units in Dubai. And Americans, Europeans and Asians are all jumping at the opportunity.
You are essentially purchasing a luxurious hotel suite (studio, one-, two- or three-bedrooms), and as an owner you'll share in any revenue that hotel unit generates.
How much revenue? Well some developers in Dubai are actually offering a guaranteed 8% minimum annual return or 60% of the revenue your unit generates, whichever is greater, for the first three years. After the third year, you're still entitled to 60% of the revenue, but there is no guarantee.
Will 60% of the revenue be significant? Of course no one can predict the future. But consider these facts. Dubai has the highest hotel occupancy rate in the world! In 2005, it was 86% and has been steadily climbing. It also has the highest revenue per hotel room in the world, beating out world-class cities like New York and Paris.
CONDO HOTEL OWNERSHIP
As the owner of a condo hotel unit, you can keep your condo hotel as long as you'd like. Use it as a get-away-from-it-all vacation home if desired. When you no longer want it in your real estate portfolio, you can resell it, presumably at a much-appreciated price, and you keep 100% of the profit.
Is this a good time to buy in Dubai? After all, this country is not an established vacation destination like Las Vegas or Florida. But in fact, that's exactly the reason to buy right now.
The Dubai real estate sector is just a few years old. Getting in on the ground floor of a new property market has its advantages. Remember, these are premium properties in a new land with unimaginable potential. The prices on these five-star condo hotels are extremely reasonable, leaving plenty of room for potential appreciation.
Compare, for example, the Trump International in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida where a studio condo hotel unit of 612 sq. ft would cost you over $800,000 today or the Cosmopolitan, Las Vegas, where a 600 sq. ft. studio will run you $750,000+.
Comparable studios in Dubai condo hotels start at under $150,000. In fact, at those prices, you can handily buy a three-bedroom unit in Dubai with enough left over to purchase new his and hers Mercedes and a pair of matching camels to boot!
WHY IS DUBAI SO POPULAR?
Dubai lies on the southeastern shore of the Persian Gulf, strategically located at the cross roads of Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia. This makes it a gateway to over 1.5 billion consumers.
With its central location, Dubai is rapidly becoming the premier tourist destination of the region. Over the past decade, the number of visitors to Dubai has grown from 1.08 million to 5.4 million, representing an annual growth of 16%. This growth rate is more than triple the world tourism growth rate over the same period. In fact, the last five years alone witnessed a 54% growth in the numbers of tourists visiting Dubai.
Forecasting 200,000 visitors a day, Dubai is being designed to attract and accommodate 15 million visitors a year from 2010 onwards. All of this bodes well for owners of condo hotel units.
BE A PART OF DUBAI'S SKYROCKETING GROWTH
What sparked Dubai's sudden growth? In May 2002, Sheik Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum, in an effort to reduce Dubai's economic dependence on oil, issued a decree that for the first time allowed foreigners to buy and sell property.
The race was on. Investors from all over the world jumped in with both feet, recognizing the potential of Dubai with its stable economy, secure political scene, zero property and income tax, and an unmatched standard of living.
The result? Today Dubai is the number one emerging market. An estimated $80 billion of real-estate projects, including the five-star condo hotels mentioned here, are now underway in Dubai.
So if you're still kicking yourself for not having bought up some of those Florida orange groves and cow pastures that eventually became Disney or invested in that business in the desert that became Las Vegas, here's another chance to make your mark in the sand - Dubai!

The Daily Thistle
The Daily Thistle – News From Scotland
Sunday 28th May 2017
"Madainn Mhath” …Fellow Scot, I hope the day brings joy to you…. A very humid night with just a little cloudy this morning, although I don’t think it will rain.. Stars peeking through the gaps and the occasional glimpse of the moon, light the way for Bella and I as we walk the streets and alleys of Estepona.. like all Spanish towns, there are more cars and motorcycles than parking places, cars with wheels on the sidewalk, cars backed into unbelievably tight spaces… but by 7:00am the cars will magically disappear, until about 10:00pm when the fight for parking starts all over again….
OBAN TEEN INTERNET PIPING SENSATION LANDS OBAN LIVE SLOT …. 13-year-old who became an online hit after performing live on a transatlantic flight to New York is to be a special guest artist to open Oban Live, Argyll’s biggest music event. Gregor MacDonald was en-route to take part in New York’s Tartan Week with his school’s pipe band when he performed a couple of solo piping tunes to passengers. A recording of the event was later posted by the school on social media and the video was a hit, achieving over 150,000 hits. Gregor will take to the stage for a solo piping performance which will open Oban Live on 2 June. He will also return on the second day of Oban Live alongside his band mates in Oban High School’s Novice Juvenile A Pipe Band to play with headliners and Celtic rock band Skerryvore. Gregor said: “I knew I would be playing with Oban High School Pipe Band but to be asked to play solo is quite a privilege. Teenage piper Gregor MacDonald. Picture: Kevin McGlynn/Contributed “I am looking forward to it. I’ve never played at anything like Oban Live before so it will be a great experience. “I’ve still not decided what I’m playing yet but I am practicing a bit more than usual in preparation for the event. “My family and friends will all be coming to watch. It’s a great local event and we have all been to it in the past.”
ABERDEEN SHOPS GEAR UP FOR ELITE CYCLING EVENT CYCLING EVENT… A major cycling event kicking off in Aberdeen today has seen city centre shops playing their part to turn the streets into a cycling hub for the elite competition. The Tour Series window dressing competition, organised by Aberdeen City Council, invited businesses to take part by dressing their windows in a cycling theme, to promote the arrival of the cycling showcase in Aberdeen for the first time. The winners were O’Caykx, followed by Mr Dun and Kirkview Cafe. Prizes on offer were £2,000 advertising package on local radio, a three-month tier to an Aberdeen City Council roundabout worth £1,500 and a Union Street banner during Offshore Europe valued at £1,000. Aberdeen Lord Provost Barney Crockett said “A fantastic effort has gone into the numerous display and some of the entries were incredibly creative. “Congratulations to all the nominated businesses who got into the spirit of the event and took part in the competition. “Their participation has added a vibrant element to the route and shopping precincts, and will also encourage customers to enjoy the spirit”. The Tour Series is being brought to the city as part of the wider Aberdeen 365 Events Strategy, a City Centre Masterplan initiative. The 1.2-kilometre circuit around the compact city centre will provide a stunning backdrop to a fast and furious night of racing, with the beautiful architecture and vocal Scottish crowds setting the perfect scene as the race is broadcast around the world. The elite athletes will tackle an hour-long race as they weave around a challenging combination of cobbled streets and tight turns, racing to the finishing line at Union Street, battling it out to be crowned Britain’s top team.
PERTHSHIRE’S FAMOUS ENCHANTED FOREST SET TO MAKE A RETURN…. Scotland’s premier sound and light event is set amidst the Autumn woodland of Forestry Commission Scotland’s Faskally Wood. The spectacular event is to return to this year, with tens of thousands expected to attend. The Enchanted Forest is current winner of UK’s Best Cultural Event, as well as Best Large Event and the Chairman’s Award and three times winner of Best Cultural Event at the Scottish Event Awards. The Enchanted Forest was also recently crowned winner of the Rural Tourism & Hospitality Award at the 2016 Scottish Rural Awards. Their 2017 dates have just been announced. They are 28 September to 29 October and tickets will go on sale to the public on 16 June. Woodland Experiences has again joined forces with Allan Associates, the producers and creative directors of the Enchanted Forest for the last several years, to put on another visually-stunning display at North Ballochruin Farm, Balfron. The award-winning event attracted over 70,000 visitors last year and could top 100,000 this year. The Enchanted Forest started life as a three-night attraction for 1500 people. It is believed to be worth more than £3 million for the Perthshire economy. Organisers say around half the event’s visitors choose to stay overnight in the Perthshire area. Ian Sim, chairman of The Enchanted Forest Community Trust. which runs the event, said: “People travel from all over the world for the show and it generates lots of positive press for Highland Perthshire. “We’re delighted to be attracting so many visitors to the area at what has traditionally been a quiet time of year.” Malcolm Roughead, chief executive of national tourism agency VisitScotland said: “As a former winner of our prestigious Thistle Award for Best Event, The Enchanted Forest continues to go from strength to strength and is a truly worthy winner of this award. “The creative team has an exceptional way of refreshing their approach every year to create a unique event that showcases Scotland’s natural landscape at its very best. It is a must-see event for people of all ages.
SALMON RETURN TO THE CLYDE AS WATER QUALITY IMPROVES…. Glasgow’s River Clyde is now far less polluted than it used to be, with water quality improving and fish returning to areas that they have been unable to access for decades, according to monitoring work carried out by Scotland’s environmental regulator. The Scottish Environment Protection Agency (Sepa) said the Clyde was in “significantly better health” than expected thanks to high levels of investment. Some parts of the river are now graded as “excellent” after recovering from years of pollution. The river’s overall quality was previously ranked as “bad”, the worst possible category, but improved to “moderate” in 2015 and some stretches have now improved again. Around 62 miles of waterways have been opened up by removing barriers to fish, with salmon reintroduced in higher parts of the river that they were previously unable to access. Pollution had driven the species to extinction in the river’s catchment area. Sepa, which monitors the water quality in Scotland’s lochs and rivers, said the Clyde had also experienced fewer overflows from sewers and less pollution from agricultural sources. The Scottish Government hailed what it described as a “lasting change in the Clyde’s fortunes” and said further efforts were under way to make more improvements. Environment Secretary Roseanna Cunningham said: “The Clyde flows through the very heart of Glasgow and for centuries the river has provided our largest city with a gateway to the world and a source of prosperity. “However, since industrialisation in the early 1800s, we’ve abused this river, tipping our waste into it without a ¬second thought for the impact it has on the communities ¬living along the banks, water quality or the wider environment.”
SCOTLAND’S WEATHER: EDINBURGH HOTTER THAN CANARY ISLANDS…. SKYROCKETING temperatures in the capital are set to make Edinburgh warmer than Cape Town and Lanzarote over the bank holiday weekend, as Scotland prepares for its hottest May temperatures in five years. The city was bathed in warm sunshine as the mercury soared to as much as 23C, with predictions it could rise to as high as 31C across the country. And with temperatures expected to remain high heading into the weekend, beer gardens are expected to be packed as revellers bask in the balmy weather. A spokesperson for the Met Office said: “We could see temperatures go as high as 25C or 26C on Friday, perfect for the weekend just coming in.” “Temperatures should remain warm across the marathon weekend, but there is a chance of a few sporadic downpours on Saturday afternoon. “It will be bright and sunny across the rest of the bank holiday weekend, although we can expect it to get cooler on Sunday and Monday.”
On that note I will say that I hope you have enjoyed the news from Scotland today,
Our look at Scotland today is a little bit of history…. The Bell Rock Lighthouse, off the coast of Angus, Scotland, is the world's oldest surviving sea-washed lighthouse. It was built between 1807 and 1810 by Robert Stevenson on the Bell Rock (also known as Inchcape) in the North Sea, 11 miles (18 km) east of the Firth of Tay. Standing 35 metres (115 ft) tall, its light is visible from 35 statute miles (56 km) inland. The masonry work on which the lighthouse rests was constructed to such a high standard that it has not been replaced or adapted in 200 years.[5] The lamps and reflectors were replaced in 1843 and used in the lighthouse at Cape Bonavista, Newfoundland, where they are currently on display. The working of the lighthouse has been automated since 1988
A Sincere Thank You for your company and Thank You for your likes and comments I love them and always try to reply, so please keep them coming, it's always good fun, As is my custom, I will go and get myself another mug of "Colombian" Coffee and wish you a safe Sunday 28th May 2017 from my home on the southern coast of Spain, where the blue waters of the Alboran Sea washes the coast of Africa and Europe and the smell of the night blooming Jasmine and Honeysuckle fills the air…and a crazy old guy and his dog Bella go out for a walk at 4:00 am…on the streets of Estepona…
All good stuff....But remember it’s a dangerous world we live in
Be safe out there…
Robert McAngus
