STARTING AGAIN

A new year is always a good time for making changes and I decided to start over again for 2025 with an all new Blogger blog using a slightly more modern theme. But not too modern, because I think most blog themes look totally lame. In fact I'm completely repulsed by the style of most "modern" blogs.

PS - As things worked out I later decided to come back to this blog, but to convert it to purple as a work around for the formatting problems I was having. So I ended up deciding not to change to a new black blog, but instead to return to my purple roots. I hope everyone likes purple!

After a quick look around I concluded that all the more fashionable up to date themes SUCK! I realise I'm a bit old school, but to me they all look "Lame and Gay" as Eric Cartman might say. 

They are mostly bright white backgrounds with a bunch of distracting magazine style tiled images, and plenty of adverts. I want a simple dark look with basic menus, no distractions.

 

So from the start of 2025 I have swapped over and redirected the www.sift.co.nz URL to a new Sift blog, making the old 2024 blog an archive. The hits on the old blog were so low I was starting to wonder just what was going on with it, and it was starting to have an increasing number of display and formatting issues, so rather than trying to sort it out, I thought it was time for a fresh start. 

 

As with my archived FROT blog I left the old SIFT blog as it was, but it was looking a bit crap once it stopped displaying the colours I selected, and was all shades of grey. With a new theme ("Awesome Inc Dark") I was aiming for something less limp looking.

 

 

BLOGGING IN 2025

 This blog is now an archive, I was having some technical issues with it, so I've moved over to a brand new one - my new SIFT 2025 blog is HERE.

A year ago when I stopped posting on my old self hosted WordPress www.frot.co.nz blog, I called the last post "THE END OF AN ERA" and after eight years of posting on that blog it certainly felt like it.

This Sift 2024 blog was much shorter lived. I started out the year saying I would post whatever and whenever, but soon became totally anal and ended up doing at least one blog post of some sort every day for the entire year. 

 That probably was a bit excessive for a blog that was only getting just over 100 hits a day, especially when I suspect many of those hits are bots of some sort anyway. But ironically the number of hits here on this now archived blog have increased in 2025 after I have stopped using it and moved over to my new blog, and they now seem to be increasing every day.

For 2025 I was considering quitting doing blog posts altogether, and only posting new pages from time to time. But I must admit to being a bit addicted to posting something every day, even if it's a bit crap. 

So I set up a new Blogger blog for 2025 where I plan to pretty much carry on just the same. Possibly one day I might set up another self hosted website with a bigger menu and more pages, but in the shorter term I'll keep things simple and continue using Blogger because it's quick and easy.

MOVING ON

 A new year is always a good time for making changes and I have decided to start over again for 2025 with a new Blogger blog using a slightly more modern theme. But not too modern, because I think most blog themes look totally lame. In fact I'm completely repulsed by the style of most "modern" blogs.

 

After a quick look around I concluded that all the more fashionable up to date themes SUCK! I realise I'm a bit old school, but to me they all look "Lame and Gay" as Eric Cartman would say. 

 They are mostly bright white backgrounds with a distracting magazine like tiled style and plenty of adverts. I want a simple dark look with basic menus, no distractions.

 

Once the new blog is set up I'll point the www.sift.co.nz URL at it, and this 2024 blog will become another archive. The hits on this blog were so low I was starting to wonder what is going on with it, and the theme was starting to have some display issues, so rather than trying to sort it out properly, I decided to make a fresh start. 

 

I'm aiming for something less limp looking...

 

 

WHO IS DOING THE GEOENGINEERING IN NZ?

 

The constant geoengineering over NZ is very obvious. Sometimes it's so obvious that even normies ask "who is doing it?" Here is one response:

 

"Nobody can tell you who authorizes it because this information is kept secret and classified. Even doing an official information act request will not disclose this information as it is above govt pay grade. We have already tried. It can be kept classified as concerning "national security".

 

From all indications it is administered by US Military or US secret agencies. Also a considerable amount of weather modification (for NZ) appears to be done from off the coast of Queensland over the Tasman Sea. There is a joint Singapore/Australian military base in Rockhampton that had a $2 billion injection and it appears that may be responsible for this off coast weather modification. 

 

Over the years methods have changed and now I suspect the use of drones for a lot of it. The "cloud" then drifts down on airflows from there to NZ and is manipulated into location as and when required for the "desired effect" using EMF. The Nexrad radars, installed in Metservice locations around the country, may have some part in this EMF, albeit being operated remotely using back-engineering"

FLUORIDE IS NOT A NUTRIENT

It’s often said that what makes fluoridation so harmful is that they use a chemical called hydrofluorosilicic acid rather than naturally occurring fluoride. However, the fact is all fluoride is toxic, even naturally occurring fluoride.

Fluoride is not a nutrient in any way. It is not like calcium or magnesium; it is much more like lead or arsenic.

In some parts of Africa, China, India and other parts of the world, the underground fluoride supplies have high amounts of fluoride. This causes huge problems. The children and adults suffer from skeletal fluorosis which causes crippling bone problems.

It is expensive to remove fluoride as most filters do not remove it. To remove all fluoride a reverse osmosis or distillation system is needed although in rural India they are developing some low cost filtration systems using lime.

A website called India Water Portal contains a lot of really interesting information regarding the harms of excess fluoride. The images of children with deformities and adults bed-ridden is heart breaking. There are also articles about what people are doing to try and remove fluoride and even remedy skeletal fluorosis through avoidance of fluoride and a nutrient dense diet.

It is true, though, that naturally occurring fluoride is generally not as toxic as the chemical fluoride added to New Zealand waters. Naturally occurring fluoride normally comes with high levels of calcium or magnesium which it binds to and makes less toxic. Also, fluoride is cumulative and even “low” levels can cause skeletal fluorosis. The first stage of skeletal fluorosis is identical to arthritis and doctors in New Zealand are not aware that patients presenting with arthritic-like symptoms may, in fact, have skeletal fluorosis.

Demanding that councils add a toxic substance like fluoride purposedly to people’s water, is absolutely crazy if the Director-General of Health’s aim is to improve the health of New Zealanders. And it is cowardly and ignorant of any mayor or councillor not to stand up to this craziness and tell the Direct-General of Health that they will not take any part in poisoning the community.

 

A GREAT LIST

Because Blogger is owned by Google, I have been long been expecting my posts to be censored, so I have them all backed up. But in all of 2024, only one post was deleted. A post about Jason Christoff. 

And strangely my blog now has some strange formatting bugs that started at the same time as the post was censored. No matter what I do in the advanced theme settings, I no longer seem to be able to change the colours of the unvisited links which are now stuck on an unreadable dark blue. It may be coincidence, but I can't help wondering if after a year of working perfectly, Google wanted me to stop using their platform? Odd...

It's an interesting example of censorship... Ironically, in censoring this particular post, Google have rekindled my interest in posting online. Why do they care so much? Which part of this information do these globalist data collecting scum fear the most?

My original post was a summary with a link to his excellent list. But if Goggle are censoring him to this extent I'm even more interested now! What exactly was it in my post that triggered Google's AI censorship?

HERE IS MY ORIGINAL POST - IF THIS GET CENSORED AGAIN I WILL TRY TAKING SOME PARTS OUT - AND THAT MAY BE REVEALING:

A GREAT LIST

 While investigating the rabbit hole that is mass poisoning using coffee, earlier this year I stumbled upon a researcher called Jason Christoff

Almost all the popular names in the so called alternative health movement are sponsored and therefore controlled by deep state gate keepers like The Wellness Company, who keep them in line by funding them, as well as selling coffee. Jason Christoff appears to be a lone voice in the wilderness exposing what is really going on with coffee. 

And unlike most of those other "influencers" I don't get the impression he is a shill. Check out his list of 20 Truths to Make Your Life Better In 2025 No controlled opposition puppet would post this stuff!

In this list he covers conventional medicine, government, viruses, taxes, fluoride, school, TV, vaccines, evolution, genders, alcohol, coffee, marijuana, media, mind control, Ukraine, Covid 19 and several other topics in a series of concise summaries. The post URL was originally "The Top 25 Lies" so I suspect he toned the list down a bit and cut it back to 20, but he strikes me as a legit voice exposing this stuff, which is very rare.

In fact he has inspired me to do a longer list exposing all these lies and a bunch more, but I'm having a break from "conspiracies" at the moment. 

Truth is, I've been going on about this stuff online for more that 20 years, and I'm a total burnout, with almost no audience left anyway, so it's probably time for me to shut my trap and find some good sources to recommend instead. A great thing about Jason Christoff is that despite being grey listed he still has a large online audience.

 

Here is what he said about coffee:

"Coffee is healthy". Absolute inversion, completely false. Coffee is the #1 most effective mind control substance ever shoehorned (via social engineering) into our society. Not only does daily caffeine consumption make you extremely unhealthy and guarantees your premature death, but caffeine also primes the human nervous system to be extremely suspectable to all forms of mind control.

Bone pain, joint pain, arthritis or fluoride poisoning

Most people don’t realise that 50% of fluoride ingested is stored in the bones and soft tissue. Accumulation of fluoride can cause a disease called skeletal fluorosis. The first symptoms of skeletal fluorosis are identical to osteoarthritis.

 
“Long-term accumulative exposures to fluoride even at low levels carries a risk of sub-clinical or stage-1 musculo-skeletal fluorosis presenting as joint pain or arthritis. Notably, arthritis is a leading cause of disability with 647,000 now affected in this country and annual costs exceeding $3 billion.” Dr Mike Godfrey, Journal New Zealand Medical Association.

It is completely unknown how many people in New Zealand are suffering from skeletal fluorosis, rather than arthritis, because doctors are not aware this could happen here so testing is never done.

What we do know is that the U.S. Government’s Institute of Medicine, Dietary Reference Intakes for Calcium, Phosphorus, Magnesium, Vitamin D, and Fluoride.(1997), have estimated “The development of skeletal fluorosis and its severity is directly related to the level and duration of exposure. Most epidemiological research has indicated that an intake of at least 10 mg/day for 10 or more years is needed to produce clinical signs of the milder forms of the condition”.

In 2013, the Hamilton City Council held a Tribunal Hearing on Fluoridation. One of the expert speakers promoting fluoridation was former chief oral health advisor, and now Medical Director for Health New Zealand, Dr Robin Whyman.

Dr Whyman explained to the councillors “You then swallow the fluoride and it comes down into the blood supply. Some of it is actually moves across to bone, we don’t disagree with that at all, and some of it will go to soft tissue.” But rather than stopping there and discussing what this means for bone health, and the health of our entire bodies, Dr Whyman, a dentist, moved on to talk about dental health.

Because fluoride accumulates, less exposure over longer periods can achieve the same result as high exposure over a shorter period. The intake established by the Institute of Medicine, 10 mg a day for 10 years, may be roughly the same as 5mg a day for 20 years or 2.5 mg a day for 40 years and so on. The Institute of Medicine say “Stage 1 skeletal fluorosis is characterized by occasional stiffness or pain in joints and some osteosclerosis of the pelvis and vertebra.” 

Could your bone or joint pain be caused by fluoride accumulating in your bones? Try avoiding all forms of fluoride. See Sources of Fluoride and New Zealand study on Fluoride and Tea.

“If I was an arthritic individual, I would be eliminating every source of fluoride exposure I could think of”. Phyllis Mullinex, PhD.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

TO ALL MY LEGIONS OF FOLLOWERS 😃

ARE THERE ANY GREAT NZ MOVIES?

When I'm asked if there are any great New Zealand movies I don't know where to start. Not because there are so many I don't know which ones to choose first, but because the short answer is "No, not really" There are certainly not many I would call "great".

 

If I pick my favourites from the past 50 years, I can think of three that I really liked.

WHY I LIKE ODYSEE

This was really good to see, and another reason why I'm a fan of the Odysee platform:

 

Dear friends of Odysee,

Starting today, we're removing all ads.

We don't need ads to make money as a platform and we are confident in the development of our own new monetisation programs that will help creators earn a living and at the same time keep Odysee alive.

Ultimately, sacrificing the overall user experience to make a few bucks isn't worth it to us and nor is it even sustainable for a platform that wishes to make something truly open and creatively free.

As we take this decision, one thing is certain to us, media platforms (even ones that market themselves as 'free-speech') typically devolve into advertising companies and end up becoming beholden to their paymasters. It's been that way for centuries and is never going to change.

As we see YouTube become more aggressive with their ad deployment and 'Free Speech' platforms try to build their own ad businesses it's apparent to us that we're building a model for Odysee that will keep it sustainable not only financially, but in its ability to provide an incorruptible user experience.

Our approach may be considered niche or unconventional, that's fine by us. Odysee will be used by the world on terms that are agreeable to its users, and we know our users don't like ads.

Best,

Founder & Creator, Chief Executive Officer.

Julian Chandra

RANDOM IMAGES #50

 OK, this is my last RANDOM IMAGES post for the year. It's been fun knocking out a post with 10 random images along with a GIF & and one of my own pictures every Sunday, but I'm going to be taking a different approach with this blog next year, so I'm calling it quits with this last one.

Yes I know there are 52 weeks in a year, but the first one wasn't numbered and with all the December distractions like Xmas & New Year, I can't be arsed doing a #51 post. Fifty posts each with 10 images will do the job. They are now all compiled into one big gallery for easy viewing pleasure.
