Not
being into phones myself I had no idea that people were flinging this
sort of money at the stupid things, but when I did some looking into
phones yesterday, it boggled my mind that there are phones apparently
selling in New Zealand for NZ$3799.
Are people really paying that much for phones? Are they stark raving mad?
A
person who was able to make good second hand selections on Trade Me
could buy an entire collection of technologies for that amount of money.
To see how this might play out, I went imaginary shopping online. What did I buy?:
Firstly
a laptop - I like 17" Dell Laptops - here is a fairly good one for $599. And this
comes with a good hard drive so it wouldn't need upgrading like my next purchase, the PC, would.
Next a PC - I like old HP Z240 PC's - this one is just $200 - yes I would do
some hard drive upgrades to it, but I'm sure there will be plenty of $
remaining from my imaginary $3799 budget to cover those as well.
The
PC would also need a screen to go with it - I like 32" screens - OK,
for this item I'll splash out and go with a brand new LG monitor because
they are good, and that would cost $445. So far I'm up to $599 + $200 +
$445 = $1244.
I'd like a new tablet as well - my pick is a 12" Samsung - $699 brand new
And
I might as well buy a phone even though I seldom use them - If I was
buying one for real I'd prefer a Brax 3 privacy phone, but for the
purposes of this blog I'll just go with the first half decent
refurbished phone I see - $169
So now I've spent $599 + $200 + $445 + $699 + $169 = $2112.
I'm
doing an imaginary tech spending spree here, and still have $1687 to
spend. Those purchases will cost about an extra $100 in freight, so I'll
need to keep at least that much in reserve, and next I'd like to buy
some better drives for the PC.
First a new 500Gb Samsung SSD drive for doing a fresh install of a Linux Mint operating system on the PC - $96
Then
a big 4TB Samsung SSD slave drive for storing all my data - $689 -
those drives are fairly expensive and I could easily find something
cheaper, but even after buying one, I'd still be rolling in cash at this
point, and wouldn't really need to look for drive bargains.
I'd
also get a stylish keyboard and mouse for the PC, along with a WD 4TB
external drive ($229) for doing my backups. That lot will cost about
$400 all up, leaving me with $300 to spend on extras like a foot
massager.
As
well as using the external drive to backup the slave drive on the PC,
I'd also use it to share my big collections of movies and stuff with the
laptop.
So
for the price of that one total rip off phone I could have a nice
laptop, PC, monitor, tablet, phone, and a backup drive with some
leftover change.
Yeah,
that is pretty much what I already actually do have, and honestly, I
think if anyone spends $3800 on a phone they are a complete tool.
Speaking
of tools, if you are still looking for something to spend some leftover
money on, I recommend a Stanley Fatmax 20oz hammer because I think they
have a nicer grip than any other hammers.
Back around 2018 on my old www.frot.co.nz blog I used to get over 1000 hits most days, and would get up over 2000 hits on good days too.
But since the start of the covidhoax in 2020, when I began regularly calling out the whole scam, it's safe to say that my www.frot.co.nz blog hits took a hammering and never recovered.
For the past two years I've wondered if my new www.sift.co.nz blog would ever get up over 2000 hits a day.
The hits this year have been gradually increasing, and yesterday they finally exceeded 2000 for the first time.
So that's pretty cool. And it's not like I've stopped calling out the covidhoax or the death jabs or anything.
A serial killer ritually murders London prostitutes in order to cover up a scandal involving the British Royal family
The Masonic conspiracy rests on the testimony of Joseph Sickert, son
of painter Walter Sickert who was allegedly involved in the conspiracy
along with the Queen’s personal physician, Sir William Gull (aged 72!),
police commissioner Sir Charles Warren and other high-level Freemasons.
In Sickert’s tale, Queen Victoria’s grandson and heir apparent Prince
Eddy, Duke of Clarence had married and fathered a child with a common
Irish Catholic shop clerk from London’s East End. With the entire
monarchy’s fragile state and a Catholic bastard now standing in line for
the throne, the Freemasons were charged with cleaning up the mess and
eliminating all witnesses. Sickert had the role of playing the Duke’s
brother on his outings and suspiciously was not himself of a target of
the Masonic hit squad, leading some to believe that Walter Sickert himself might be Jack the Ripper or at the very least, one of his accomplice. (There are currently over 100 suspects in the Whitechapel Murders).
In 1976, Stephen Knight wrote Jack the Ripper. The final solution,
a bestselling book based on Sickert’s account. Sickert admitted to the
Royal Conspiracy hoax in The Sunday Times of London in 1978. Despite
the admission, the story remained popular and spawned a myriad of
articles, books and movies including the big-budget 2001 film From Hell (based on the Alan Moore’s graphic novel by the same name), the 1979 Murder by Decree (famous for depicting actual secret Masonic grips) and a host of other movies.
The words “The Juwes are the men that will not be blamed for nothing.” (see the Goulston Street Graffito)
were found scribbled in chalk near the double-murder scenes of victims
Stride and Eddowes. Sir Charles Warren, head of the London Police and
the Most Worshipful Master of the Quator Coronati Masonic Lodge erased
the reference to “juwes” left behind by Jack the Ripper. Ostensibly, to
avoid a backlash against the local Jewish population. Conspiracists
point out that the unusual spelling of “Juwes” is a reference to the
Masonic murder of Hiram Abiff by the three ruffians Jubela, Jubelo and
Jubelum.
Due to the lack of forensic evidence, it’s impossible to completely
rule out the masons as the culprit behind the Jack the Ripper killings.
However, there really isn’t any reason to do so. Some evidence does pop
up once in a while, for instance author Patricia Cornwell’s research
into DNA proved that at least one of the letters attributed to Jack the
Ripper was written by Walter Sickert.
Parallels between the Ripper murders and Masonic Oaths:
All “Canonical 5” victims had their throat cut from left to right. (See
Entered Apprentice Oath below) The fifth victim’s heart was taken. (See
Fellowcraft Oath below) Four of the victims abdomen were slashed with
Kelly’s completely emptied. (See Master Mason Oath below) Knight claims
that Jack the Ripper’s murders paralleled Masonic blood oaths. (see
below)
Oath of an Entered Apprentice:
“All this I most solemnly, sincerely
promise and swear, with a firm and steadfast resolution to perform the
same, without any mental reservation or secret evasion of mind whatever,
binding myself under no less penalty than that of having my throat cut across,
my tongue torn out by its roots, and my body buried in the rough sands
of the sea, at low-water mark, where the tide ebbs and flows twice in
twenty-four hours, should I ever knowingly violate this my Entered
Apprentice obligation. So help me God, and keep me steadfast in the due
performance of the same.”
Oath of a Fellowcraft
“All this I most solemnly promise and
swear with a firm and steadfast resolution to perform the same, without
any hesitation, mental reservation, or self-evasion of mind whatever,
binding myself under no less penalty than of having my breast torn open my heart plucked out,
and placed on the highest pinnacle of the temple, there to be devoured
by the vultures of the air, should I ever knowingly violate the Fellow
Craft obligation. So help me God, and keep me steadfast in the due
performance of the same.
(some say, My heart and vitals taken from thence, and thrown over my
left shoulder, and carried into the valley of Jehoshaphat…)”
Oath of a Master Mason
“All this I most solemnly, sincerely
promise and swear, with a firm and steady resolution to perform the
same, without any hesitation, mental reservation, or secret evasion of
mind what-ever, binding myself, under no less penalty than that of
having my body severed in two, my bowels taken from thence
and burned to ashes, the ashes scattered before the four winds of
heaven, that no more remembrance might be had of so vile and wicked a
wretch as I would be, should I ever, knowingly, violate this my Master
Mason’s obligation. So help me God, and keep me steadfast in the due
performance of the same.”
The Ultimate Jack the Ripper resource can be found here and this site looks at the murders from a Freemasonic point of view. Note that Freemasons are not allowed to discuss Masonic obligations and penalties with Cowans. (non-masons) Admittingly, the supposed ties between the Ripper’s modus operandi and Masonic penalties are far-fetched.
With all things relating to computer privacy we are in an awkward position that if something is widely used it won't be private, and if something is really private it will be prevented from becoming widely used.
The crypto Monero is a good example - it was the only properly private cryptocurrency, but this year it has been made near to unusable - no exchanges will trade it, and no wallets will store it - it is still spoken of like it is the best privacy crypto, which it would be if it was usable, but it isn't.
I still have US$45 of Monero that I missed when I was selling my Monero at the start of the year. If I wanted to use it, that would not be easy, so I've written it off - It would require setting up an old wallet to even be able to see it, and any person I might send it to would need to do the same.
No exchanges will accept Monero now so it can't easily be sold or traded. So the coin is essentially unusable, but nobody is talking about that, and it's still currently trading at US$400 seemingly unaffected by the fact that it's now a completely useless privacy coin.
The fact that this coin is still supposedly happily trading like it's still usable and nobody is talking about this situation was the final straw that made me lose any remaining faith I had in cryptos.
The elephant in the room is, who is trading it? and how are they trading it? If I can't trade my $45 of Monero, how are people trading millions of $ of it? Are all these trades of Monero even really happening? Why would anyone pay $400 for a privacy coin that is nearly unusable?
And that is why privacy is a really complex subject - nothing is what it seems!
I've been using cash as much as possible for the past 30 years, so it boggles my mind to see how many people are willingly lining up for digital slavery by using electronic payment systems as their main method of payment.
It
probably sounds a bit fruit-loops to even seriously be considering the
optimum number of blog posts to do each day, but after doing a couple of
posts mentioning my 27 year history of blogging, I started
contemplating that life defining question again.
For most of the past 27 years I have simply done a blog post whenever I had an urge to say something, and over time on www.frot.co.nz, that generally worked out to an average of around 10 posts each month.
But with this new www.sift.co.nz
blog, I set out at the start of 2024 with a definite aim of doing one
post every day, even if those posts were only shorties. I liked the idea
of forcing myself to post something daily, and wondered how I’d cope
with that sort of intense pressure!
It has actually worked out fine, because on days when I couldn't be arsed writing much, I have just re-posted something from my old www.frot.co.nz blog, or shared a meme or something else fairly quick and basic.
For
the first year (2024) the hits on my new SIFT blog were fairly disappointing, generally
numbering only around 100-200 total hits each day, and I thought my
1000+ hits a day times (2017-2019) were well and truly over. But
throughout 2025 the hits have actually been slowly increasing, they are now
averaging 500+ a day, and are continuing to gradually climb.
The
only promotion I do these days are a few odd links on my Facebook account,
apart from that I can't be bothered striving to get hits, but I must
admit to having a look at the hit counter from time to time out of
curiosity.
In
the grand scheme of things I realise 1000 hits a day is bugger all, but
it does add up to over a third of a million hits a year (365,000), and I
used to manage to convince myself that I was a big-time influencer back
in my 1000+ hits glory days.
If I'm honest about it, one way or another, I'd like to get back up over half a million hits a year. That was my peak
hit-count on www.frot.co.nz back in 2018. Then I'd be a mover and
shaker again.
Presently
the hits vary quite a bit each day, from lows of around 300, to
highs of over 1500, and I have no idea why that is. Those quite big
daily variations don't seem to be caused by my new posts of the day, there just seem
to be inexplicable ebbs and flows in the overall traffic to the entire
site.
In
27 years of blogging, the most posts I’ve ever done in one day is four (SIFT yesterday),
and the longest I’ve gone without doing a post is 30 days (SIFT July 2025, but I've since filled that month back in). Clearly
those are both maniacal and possibly unhealthy extremes which I'm not planning to attempt again.
My current plan, starting December 2025, is to continue aiming
to do a post every day, but at the same time to randomly add any
extra posts that I feel inclined to. So I might end up doing more than
one post each day, or then again I might not, but either way I’m going
to be taking an unconstrained walk on the wild side...
I have just added this old page from my www.frot.co.nz blog - It's a fairly long page, too big to be a post really, so this is only the intro
Bollocks On A Massive Scale - there
are people all over the place who still to this day believe the global
warming hoax hook line and sinker… Is there no cure for stupidity?
I originally compiled this page in 2015 and now a decade on, with all the geoengineering in
full swing and the sheeple being primed for 15 min cities to “save the
planet” it is clearly the next big psyop coming hot on the heels of the
covidhoax.
Global warming has
always looked to me like an apocalyptic religious cult. Although
unimpressed with the “facts” used to justify the cult of global warming,
I used to keep out of this discussion for three main reasons.
Firstly because
disagreeing with global warming is like being seen as a “holocaust
denier” – logic goes out the arse, people go into rabid attack dog mode,
and what the hell, if they want to freak out about global warming,
that’s their problem.
Secondly, one blog post can’t really cover this huge subject – for that I recommend going to a more in depth site
And thirdly, the
last thing I want to look like is a defender of the American right to
drive “SUV’s” – cutting down on pollution is a good thing, it just has
bugger all to do with global warming.
When I originally
researched this site, it was a bit of a shock to trawl through right
wing US websites, reading articles by people who thought that Gore was
wrong, so Bush must have been right. For the record I thought Bush (or
at least the people who used to operate his strings) was evil too, but
that doesn’t mean Gore wasn’t a lying con man.
So I’ll just
attempt to keep this very simple, and maybe it will encourage someone
somewhere to think this stuff through for themselves.
The Time Span is the Key
More than anything
else, time is the key factor in understanding global warming. The earth
doesn’t run on human time frames – like most planets it runs on much
longer cycles. If we look at the past 2000 years, it’s true that the
temperature is at the upper end of it’s range right now. But 2000 years
is insignificant to a planet – the sort of time span we need to be
looking at is half a million years
The patterns of
warming and cooling become clearer the longer the time span we look at –
in fact over 500,000 years the temperature chart looks almost like a
heartbeat. Yes, it’s been hotter, and it’s been colder, and it’s managed
to do both without any help from humans…
Over this time
frame the key factor in temperature change appears to be variations in
the shape of earth’s elliptical orbit – when we orbit closer to the sun
the earth gets hotter.
Approximately
every 100,000 years Earth’s climate warms up temporarily. These warm
periods, called interglacial periods, appear to last approximately
15,000 to 20,000 years before regressing back to a cold ice age climate.
At year 18,000 and counting our current interglacial vacation from the
Ice Age is much nearer its end than its beginning.
You wouldn't know it from looking at the internet, or from visiting flat earther forums, but half the planet celebrates Christmas at the height of summer, so all that stuff about snow, and sleds, and reindeer, is totally inappropriate.
Today is the first day of December (at least it is in New Zealand, the rest of you will probably get there quite soon), and I know I went on about the accelerating passage of time yesterday, but this alone is solid proof.
In less than a day it has become a different month. Some would argue that conclusion is completely retarded, but I had a quick look at my Facebook feed yesterday, and saw so many retarded posts about all sorts of deranged crap, that I started to wonder if many of my carefully selected 1500 intelligent and well informed Facebook friends have been replaced by AI.
I even had one claiming that "the moon landings" all took place as reported, and that I'm a delusional conspiracy theorist. WTF? I don't expect to see retarded drivel like that on my Facebook feed of all places.
If they don't even grasp the most basic of all the past centuries psyops, who knows what other utterly moronic stories they might fall for hook line and sinker...
There is even a popular story about a fictional "virus" called "COVID" (Certificate Of Vaccination ID). "Viruses" are all fictional but this particular one is even more impossible to actually prove the existence of than the others, and that is really saying something.
I can be fairly easy going and open minded online (sometimes), but I do have limits. While I must admit that I generally turn a blind eye to "flat earthers" and "trump supporters" as long as they have other redeeming opinions, anyone who is "pro-vax" gets instant binning.
Just to make this totally clear, I am 100% opposed to all so called "vaccines" and I deliberately make a point of referring to them as death jabs. I don't think some of them are OK (or not as bad as the MRNA ones), I think they are all based on lies and designed for profit and eugenics purposes.
Anyone who promotes death jabs is engaging in mass murder. I just want to start the new month by making that clear, it's very unlikely, but I'd really hate to ever be accused of not stating my position.
It seems like yesterday I wrote ”Holy cow, today is the last day of October”. And it seemed like only a week earlier I was freaking out that the previous month had gone by in two weeks. Today it feels like the entire month of November has whizzed by even faster. Is time accelerating?.
Yes, time, for me at least, is definitely accelerating, but I have no idea if it is for everybody else because I’m mostly avoiding everybody else.
Sometimes around this time of the year I like to mention that I started blogging in this month (November) back in 1998. So 27 years ago – sort of hard to believe really, even with time acceleration that still feels like a long time ago.
Wayback Machine doesn't save any of the images, so it’s really not it’s full original self, but it is at least purple. Pretty much every blog post and web page I’ve done for the past 27 years has either been purple or black. And that is how I like it.
But for a few years I did websites for paying customers, and had to give them whatever colours they wanted. I never really got over the psychological impact of having to design a beige website. That was a nasty hit to my delicate sensibilities...
Out of all the "conspiracies" I've looked into over the past quarter of a century, some appear to me so pathetically obvious it's mind boggling that anyone ever fell for them. The moon landing would be a prime example of one of those ones.
Eventually I'm thinking of doing a post ranking the past century of psyops from most to least obvious. I'll probably start with the moon landing, because it's pathetic. But what is the least obvious?
Yesterday I was listening to "Strawberry Fields" by The Beatles. Yes I do think the Beatles story is a psyop on many different levels, and have done some blog posts about them.
But nevertheless, whoever really wrote their music, and whoever really played it, some of their songs, like "Strawberry Fields" (1967) are so cutting edge, and so ground breaking, that even if they were done by the entire Tavistock Institute, along with George Martin, and dozens of the top session musicians, it is still an impressive achievement.
So if I ever do that ranking list, The Beatles will be in top spot as my pick for the best psyop of the past century.
All a so called “virus” is, is dead cell debris, found only in a poisoned Petri dish. There’s no such thing as contagious virus. Not covid 19, nor anything else. They are all bullshit.
Virology is just a lie meant to keep man in fear and easy to control. That fear leads mind controlled man to self poison himself with various snake oil “medications” and depopulating shots. The social engineering eugenicists just laugh at the masses as they dwindle their numbers.
All any “flu” type illness is, is our bodies detoxing the multitude of poisons thrown at us from every imaginable angle.
Chemtrails from the sky
Fluoride in the water
Glyphosate in the food
Shots in the arm
Wireless emf radiation
Avoid the poisons you can. Mitigate the others. Detox, detox, detox!
