  • An AI for Our Time?

    2025-07-07

    If you have been following this site for a little while you may have noticed that we don't confine ourselves to any particular theme or subject-matter - our purpose (however well or badly achieved) is simply to challenge our readers to 'think outside the box".

    Basically I roam wherever my fancy takes me, or wherever the tram-lines of mainstream media need to be challenged. I try not to present conclusions - reaching conclusions, possibly even just recognising possible conclusions, is your task.

    Conjuring with concepts is a favoured ploy - can we align outwardly different concepts alongside each other to identify previously unrecognised linkage? 

    With what new insights might we terrify ourselves?!

    Perhaps unexpectedly, AI can be a engine which does precisely that. But can AI, that robustly logical machine, really conjure unexpected insights from its 100% logical workings?

  • Polycrisis incoming? Fulford Report 7 July 2025

    2025-07-07

    Apparently the world is becoming less susceptible to the narratives of fear that once kept us all docile and obedient. So we need an Event X mega-event that will send us all scuttling back into our box.

    Personally I was looking forward to the "fake alien invasion" that we were promised, but it seems that other plans may be afoot - we will just have to wait and see (although the flooding in Texas that cost so many lives in recent days may have set the tone).

    Keep calm and carry on. (Modest subscription required for full access)

  • We Are the Pre-Sick Generation

    2025-07-06

    On the basis that at some point in the future we may all "go down with a bug", we are obviously all "pre-sick" and thus potential targets for medical intervention.

    And the obvious intervention is the Vaccine - something that is claimed to ward off the incoming peril and prevent its manifestation (at least until it is shown to do no such thing - oh wait - they changed the definition... ).

    This is highly convenient for the purveyors of vaccines, because

    (a) the market is now immeasurably larger than previously as it includes potentially the whole healthy population, rather than merely the small minority that are actually sick

    (b) nobody can challenge their claims unless they take the vaccine and then go down with the

  • Crunch Point Odessa?

    2025-07-05

    It seems that the West's struggle to outmanoeuvre the Russians over the Ukraine has come to some sort of a head over Odessa.

    Two videos hint at some of this, including concrete developments that don't seem to have made UK media.

    "... very recently they announced a military cooperation agreement between Great Britain and Kazakhstan... then in February they announced a military cooperation agreement between Great Britain and... Bosnia Herzegovina... the next front between Russia and the West is going to be in the Balkans, inevitably... "

    But there again. economic depression is all about the money, or lack of.

    And the Big Beautiful Bill is making money look plentiful right now, for some.

    But who will benefit, and who will be called on to foot the bill?

  • Zhong Zhi Group Has Collapsed

    2025-07-04

    Who?

    Zhong Zhi (pronounced 'jong je'), a Chinese financial giant "with assets exceeding Evergrande by 1.14 trillion yuan" has collapsed, leaving their many private investors without the income they were expecting from their investments.

    It being China, Zhong Zhi will inevitably have close ties to the government, raising serious questions about how it was regulated and how the collapse was permitted to happen.

    "How did I go from buying a financial product to becoming a participant in illegal fundraising?"

    Are the Chinese now moving on from "search for the guilty" to "punishment of the innocent", before wrapping it up with "praise and honour for the non-participants"?

    Meanwhile many thousands of investors have lost their dosh.

    2025-07-03

    What has the Trump London deal with China determined?

    Well, apparently it's nothing to do with Xi.

    And China finds the deal too sensitive to release just yet.

    So what is so sensitive...?

  • "We're Out of Ammo!"

    2025-07-03

    Well, that's more or less it.

    The good old US of A has too many theatres of military operation to support, given the global geopolitical situation. It can't build and supply the necessary military ordnance for its military to prevail beyond a very short period, given that it has too many proxies to support and a Chinese situation looming over Taiwan.

    Russia on the other hand has not neglected its supply chains, and China likely isn't over-extended, given that it doesn't have any conflicts in progress. 

    "The Russians have rethought the whole approach..."

    Likewise Iran seems over many years to have amassed sufficient supplies of technologically superior weapons ready for a long war with Israel, should that be required.

    So is the USA drawing in its horns of sheer necessity? And if so, how does that affect the prospects for global peace?

    To get on, you have to play the new games.

    Sitting back and not participating doesn't cut it.

    James Altucher makes the point well, even if he does take a whole article to do so.

    But then, that's what life is about isn't it? Weaving a narrative (ideally a plausible one), and spinning it to the right people.

    He does it better than I, so over to him.

     

  • Spyware? Or Fearware?

    2025-07-03

    Of course, wearables are to help keep us safe.

    These will allow us to monitor and obsess about our blood pressure, heart rate, breaths per minute, steps taken and so on - all the stuff that we should be taking for granted whilst we get on with life; but of course we shouldn't be doing that at all, we should be moping around desperately trying to keep all those vital medical indicators within the prescribed bounds.

    So which nut-job is trying it on this time?

    Couldn't happen here? I'd give it six months...

    If the "Court" which has summoned you has no legal standing, then its activities are unconstitutional and invalid, of no legal effect.

    Is the whole system of UK justice actually fake? Without authority? Bogus?
