Winter Is Coming!
Re: Winter Is Coming!
I agree, things are going to get very tough for many of us, if not most. The next few years are going to be a real turning point in how we live our lives and our relationship with other countries. There are so many possible flashpoints around the world that it's impossible to anticipate which one it will be that starts the fire. But one thing is for sure, things are not going to get better.

Anyone with a keen sense of awareness can feel the gloom descending on humanity.
I've already mourned my own death. Now, I'm just watching and waiting....since there is nothing I can do about what the ocean is doing, so I'm just going to ride the waves out best I can. When the going gets tough, the tough get going...

Police 'prepare for tidal wave of violent crime and civil unrest as the cost of living bites this winter': Chiefs draw up plans to deal with surge in gangland shootings, burglary and online fraud sparked by Putin's energy war.
Batten down the hatches folks. We're all on the same sinking life boat. God bless this ship and all who sail in her.

Sky 'news' is the Australian equivalent of Fox news. Full of bullshit.
Re: Winter Is Coming!
Let’s hope we don’t have a cold winter. Ha!
..a good duvet and bed clothes, hot toddies and mulled wine, day-time walks and night-time entertainment.. well that’s my plan anyway.
Let’s hope the police can handle the ensuing crime wave.. once the penny-pinching becomes over-whelmingly irrelevant and the masses revolt.
..and best to get a webcam, to record all daily activity outside your place of residence.

Re: Winter Is Coming!
Hoping for a mild winter, but just in case it does get unbearably cold....these are good..

I've bought two, I'm going to be wearing two at once, one smaller size, and the other a larger size to go over the smaller one.
I wore these all last winter, they do help...but it's a pain trying to wash up the dirty pots while wearing them. The pot washing activity is unbearable in the winter. And no, haven't got an automatic diswasher either. I'd rather wash my dirty dishes by the old fashioned way, by hand.

Re: Winter Is Coming!
Yup, gonna need to do that, need to be combat ready, cos people are defo going nuts, it's like the zombie apocalypse out there. Where fiction is becoming a reality.
Except I don't go out hardly ever these days, unless I need to restock up on my dwindling food supplies... There is a Morrisons supermarket only a stone-throw away from my house, so I'm ok.
Only this morning, I read about some crazy rampage in Canada, so either we are evolving as a human species, or nothing is changing, maybe getting worse... regressing backwards to the days when dinosaurs would knock seven bells out of each other on a daily basis, because there was nothing better to do.

Did you watch The Loudest Voice with Russell Crowe ....Roger Ailes rises in the television industry to become the chairman of Fox News, which gives him a powerful position in America. However, allegations of sexual abuse arise and his career suffers.Sky 'news' is the Australian equivalent of Fox news. Full of bullshit.
Loved it!
vegetariantaxidermy I live in a timber house, big verandahs back and front, which is lovely in summer, but where i live it is usually 5 degrees colder than the rest of the state, have a Coonara to keep the house warm. The down side of that is chopping the wood. I didn't think we had much rain this winter.
It was horrendous up North i.e “Beautiful One Day Perfect The Next or City of Celebrations.
I love winter, not looking forward to summer and those hot northerly winds.

Shit comes in many forms, and without shit there is no life. The only good thing about this shitty life, is if and when it never happened. But shit happens all the time and there ain't nothing no one can do about it. Shit happens whether we hate it or not.
Re: Winter Is Coming!
But if there were nothing to be done then we would not live another day. Keeping on living towards tomorrow and tomorrows is what can be done about it.Dontaskme wrote: ↑Mon Sep 05, 2022 2:04 pmLife is shit period.vegetariantaxidermy wrote: ↑Sun Sep 04, 2022 7:28 pm Sky 'news' is the Australian equivalent of Fox news.

DAM, you are always so negative. OK so imagine the world goes to shit, and the only survivors are the members of PHN forum.Dontaskme wrote: ↑Mon Sep 05, 2022 3:50 pmTommorow never comes, in my world.

What character in the quest for survival in a group bonding together to make the most of limited resources would you be? Certainly no hero.
You'd be the first I'd eat after cooked on a fire if I was hungry - 1 to stop the negativity and projection of hopelessness in the group - 2 because I am probably hungry (and as you know I enjoy animal flesh).
