Absolutely Anything Else

Dubia looks like a very strange place.

Ultra wealthy and ultra poor.

I am afraid to say much of anything, do not want to be in the middle of a dog fight.

I realize none of us can change the world, only how we think and act.

It is a shame the world is full of so much hate and distrust.

Yes, if you look behind the scenes, it's pretty oppressive and doesn't meet many of the usual standards one would apply in Western countries.  Some people are very exploited there.  Modern day slavery.  I don't like it there much and I've been there so many times alone and with Mrs Fluffy, I really don't care to see more tourism there as it's all fake.    I doubt I would ever be able to work there either as I've got my own opinions and struggle sometimes to keep a lid on them but I'm often in difficult discussions. I'm less likely to give them both barrels now I've got older.   Contradicting a local in a work setting is unlikely to bring anyone good news.

Trump has gone completely off the rails. I think he thought it was going to be another Venezuela.  No-one in the surrounding countries wants to get involved because when Trump gets bored and the US clears off in the aftermath, they are left holding the baby.  Surrounding countries cannot change their geography. I cannot see anyone else in Europe wanting that level of involvement either.  Trump seems to have misjudged the mood music - did he EVER get that right?  Not to say Iran doesn't need reigning in,  but a lot of innocents will die for nothing other than Trump's mental ego implosion.

Nope, Zelensky did not threaten to assassinate Orban.

He said, Ukrainians could call Orban and explain to him what is going on. Or visit him at his house.  - @fluffy2560

2 mins and 10 seconds. That exposes your misinformation. I don't know why you lie when the truth is so easily available to everyone. - @Fred

Regarding treats this one actually not that deep.

Compare this to what addressed against Venezuela and other countries in recent years.

Simple classical diplomacy changed much, even the Chinese lost patience like two years ago, when answered in an aggressive way: We pock out their 14 eyes then.

Nowdays this called ordinary diplomacy rhetoric.

So many events happening all at once and we are only 3 months into 2026.

Pushing hard for agenda 2030 from our leaders.

Petrol prices have gone up in the US. Still not as high as in the EU but then again,unless you have experienced driving in the US would might not understand how far things are from each other, no car and you are lost.

My husband took the bus once in Vegas, arrived every 3 hours and he was in the city not the outskirts.

No car and you are dead in the water.

Collected 3 bags of clothing to put out or toss out, whichever comes first.

I can not believe the amount of junk we have collected here over the years.

Spring cleaning is coming early this year.

I wish I could get my husband to toss out some junk.

IDK, hard to make solid long term plans when the world is in turmoil.

I am on the way to the UK via Saudi Arabia and I am expecting fuel to be £1.30 to £1.50 a litre back there maybe more during my visit. It was my only escape route.

Trump is stealing Venezuela's oil for the US and screwing the rest of the world who rely on tankers from the Middle East by waging war on Iran. I suppose in the short term the cost of fuel will be higher but if the government there changes, sanctions will be over and oil will flow from Iran and the rest of the region. Price going down will hurt Putin for a bit but I guess he's given Donny his orders and obviously neither of them truly cares who suffers.

@fluffy2560

Joke:

You should bring oil home from SA. Cheaper than water.

Was wondering how the adventure was going.

Glad to hear you made it out.

I have heard petrol in the US is over $5. a gallon ATM and going up daily.

Donny is not sharing with the rest of the US, he is hoarding it all for himself.

I am back in the UK again and I've been here a couple of days. On arrival I slept for 12h solid

I was really tired. But I seem to have got into the timezone again no problem. Be back to HU at the weekend. Meantime catching up with my daughter.  Weather is brutal. It is so windy and so cold! Delhi was 32C!

I paid £1.40 a litre yesterday for petrol/gasoline. That's up but not too much. It must be a lot more expensive in Germany or Netherlands. High taxes.

Donny has no control over oil prices. Releasing from the strategic reserves will make only 3 days difference. The war will go on 3 months at least, possibly  6 months or longer. Donny made that bed so he can lie in it.

What is the old saying, lay with dogs and get flees?

Have to look it up.

I am sure it will be sweet to get home and rest in your own home.

I am afraid this lamo war will be yet a different version of covid.

An excuse to give it to us.

They soon will make travel so expensive that the average Joe will not go anywhere.

It does seem however that travel from China to Hungary is in full swing. So many tourists never Blaha from China that it was hard to pass by them.

I do hope this so called war ends soon but not going to hold my breath.

This is the perfect excuse for the NWO to make major changes.

The Chinese will be coming in directly from there to BUD airport.  I don't think they'd go via the Middle East.  They'd fly over Russia.   They tend to travel in large groups.  Japanese do that too.  They have a courier with a flag.

Trump has definitely got fleas - most of them called Jeffrey Epstein and other scumbags.

Oil is over $100 a barrel again.   Radio said it could go as high as $200.   That'll kill off economics in some countries.

BTW, the volcanoes are once more active in Hawaii.  Maybe this is the beginning of the 2nd coming.

@fluffy2560 Joke:You should bring oil home from SA. Cheaper than water. - @sjbabilon5

It's $0.62 a litre for gasoline in KSA (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia).

I thought it would be cheaper than that.  Someone told me it was about $0.08 a few years ago.

Of course, most of the costs in Western countries is down to taxes.

My biggest complaint is if electricity is being produced by green sources - like wind, solar, hydro etc - why is it linked to the oil/gas price?  It should be able to float, specially now?   I did not include nuclear in "green".

If they did that, electric cars will be massively more popular.

I've just come back from a country with huge hydro resources and electric cars were everywhere.  Charging overnight cost $2.   That's how it should be - speaking as a consumer.

Yes,was going to contact my friend in Hilo about the volcano acting up again.

She has Lupus and it is acting up plus her youngest son has relapsed with his drug use.

One son is a doctor and they other has major issues.

Probably linked to her Lupus flare up, extra stress.

She is the coolest lady, she is black although I thought she was Latin for ages.

Her father was a famous baseball player in the Negro division in the 1940,s.

She is a 2 time widow also teaches yoga on the Island and also has a yoga studio in her home.

Her life seems so cool but even she has problems.

She is always inviting me to visit her, maybe some day.

The second coming, that would be the most wonderful day ever!

Well maybe not for everyone!

Example, my bros wife.

He has been moved to Kern prison, Delano, once again;

The sent him there because he is suppose to be on a special diet, soft foods.

Well so far no soft foods given he gets what everyone else gets!

He has been moved 3 times back and forth which means at least a full week of being locked inside his cell without getting out!

Reason is they in their slow offices need to figure out which yard to send him to.Thought that was already settled.

Last prison he was doing OK.

Had friends he hung with, had his church group and even a pair of high top tennis shoes.A package from someone arrived but since he was moving the held it back and they even took his extra shoes away when he was moved.

He said they gave him one set of underwear, used of course undershirt, pants and socks, no other clothing for days, then he was given a worn ready to tear apart red uniform.

WTH?? His package might find him or not. As it is it takes weeks for his mail to come.

Ca.can not afford to care for those they lock up?

Thought Ca; was the 9th richest place on earth.

He is very down now, sorry he requested a special diet so he would not chock to death.

2 more months to go.

I still have hope his wife will keel over by then!

She defo needs to be afraid of judgement day!

Have not seen gas/petrol prices here in HU.

Not been using the car much and have not thought to look into it.

Yeah, the petrol/gas prices are going up all over.   Thank you Donny.  That's getting even stranger.  He's sending 5000 Marines to the region plus a helicopter carrier.  I can only think he's going to invade Iran somewhere. Might be posturing.  But why 5000?  Doesn't seem enough. Never mind, we'll find out.

I guess living on a volcanic island brings all kind of problems, not least respiratory issues.  All those noxious gases are being thrown out by huge amounts.  I suppose a lot will blow away but some might linger. I guess the thing is not to live on a volcano.  I always fancied seeing Iceland (been to the airport) but not sure I'd want to live there.

Being moved around from prison to prison makes you wonder how that feels.  One has no control on one's own life.  I suppose apart from a few personal things, he has nothing to take with him between each move.

I've said it before,  prison is punishment, revenge and retribution in some countries but in others it's for rehabilitation.

Yes, my poor bro, not bad enough he was in hospital and rehab for over a year, they took his leg and his wife went nuts on him.

No Galvin Newsom has to mess with people although he loves his illegals.

My cousin has sent my bro some funds, I soon will also be doing the same;

More on that later...

Beautiful day out there.

Windy but so springlike.

i am still in shock,my husband had a bad fall yesterday and I am so grateful he did not kill himself.

Men are so dang stubborn.

I woke up at 6:45 to a loud crash.

Jumped out of bed to find my hubby crunched up on the bathroom floor with his head in a strange angle against the wall, he feel around either side of the toilet bowl and blood coming out of his mouth!!

i went into Girl Scout mode, thankfully instead of panic mode.

He had done something so silly and stupid I am still mad at him;

The toilet was sort of leaking and he stood up on top of the seat to adjust the water flow from the valve; His feet slipped from under him and down he came!

I did not understand straight away, thought he had a stroke or heart attack, He had the wind knocked out of him when I told him to stay calm I was calling for an ambulance.

He finally was able to say no, not to call.

I Had slowly made his legs straight and carefully removed his head from the wall, whipped his bloody mouth and within 5 mins he was able to get up with my help and go to bed.

It seems he first hit the waching machine which broke his fall.

Weak me, still can do it under pressure, surprised myself how strong I was.

I tried to get him to see a doctor for at least an Xray or CT but no, so stubborn.

Seems OK today, praise God!

Sore though!

Man alive how silly can one be?

Today he was feeling good enough to have us go into a plumbing store and buy new parts for the tank.

Gosh, life sure has it, s moments!

I think today I feel worst then he does, my nervous system took a hit!
