It is all about 'size', or at least the perception of size. And that is what makes it of interest to Trump, a man who likes 'big' things. Which might tell us something about the man himself. Greenland, believe it or not, is nowhere the size that people generally consider it to be. And that... Continue Reading →
Unless You Know Where You Come From… …A Review of the Value of Climate Science (Part 1)
To repeat a personal axiom I used in my previous post - If you don’t know where you come from, then how can you know who you are or where you are going? I think that is a valid basis, not just for the pursuit of the Greek admonition to self-awareness, to 'know thyself', but... Continue Reading →
Do I Still Have Things to Talk About?
I am approaching my 81st birthday (2 months or so). Should I keep writing here on my off-beat, alternatively-aligned, and sometimes controversial topics, centred around an unruly and increasingly chaotic and often obscene world where the prevailing zeitgeist seems to be 'nothing matters and anything goes', and sane voices and conversations are avoided, voided, or...

No Further Need for Independent Nations to be Subject to US Dollar Hegemony. It’s Here. It’s Now. And it Works
If you are pissed off with the US right now or, like me, always have been, then this is for you. I make no apologies for once again featuring a piece about BRICS (actually, BRICS+), but I feel newly invigorated to push this. Without further ado, let me urge you to watch this video. It...

Spearing the Dragon of Western Deception on BRICS International Trading Strategy
The West is spreading a concoction of lies about BRICS, adding to the cloud of deceit meant generally for the confusion of minds over emerging multipolar forces which threaten their prosperity, and potentially, their future existence. That all, by the way, exists only in their own tiny minds of course. The nations behind these emerging... Continue Reading →
Racist Australia Comes to the Fore Once Again – Taking Every Opportunity to do that. It’s in the Pores of Our Society. You Know, Etched in. Will We Ever Have the Will to Dismiss It?
I refer to the banning of Palestinian author Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah from the Adelaide Writers Festival for 'cultural sensitivity' reasons. What fucking culture? Does Australia even have a culture any more? And how is it defined? If it is OK to support nazi zionists in Australia and Israel (all around the world actually), but to... Continue Reading →
Old year ends; New one has begun. It is welcoming to have something that brings an air of warmth to that new start.
Except... and I have added this paragraph to the top of what I had already prepared for this post in the first few days of this month - January. I don't have time to investigate fully but I am aware now of discrepancies within the data NSIDC stores in its spreadsheets of daily sea ice... Continue Reading →
U.S. Rogue State, Once Again Proves Itself To Be A Bandit Country, Unworthy Of Membership Of The United Nations.
Personal Statement: In view of the illegal and vilely oderous abduction yesterday of the legally elected President of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro and his wife by cowardly American bandit forces in the dark of night (they dare not attack openly), the rest of the legitimate and law abiding world should shun the vile U.S. completely, as...

End of 2025 Arctic Sea Ice report delayed
I should be reporting on the December data and annual movements of Northern sea ice about now. Having put a great deal of work into this report, I noticed some discrepances in the data, from what was reported throughout the year, I want to know that what I say is reasonably correct and aligns with...
