Moses Wave Man (Right) - Kai-Lin (Left) & Mai-An (Cente)

Torquay: Moses Wave Man – My Dad is a Modern-Day Wizard – and He Has Made a Post! (24.7.2025)

Remarkably, despite being right-handed, from 72 onwards, he re-learned how to do everything with his left-hand. Recently, he has been in and out of hospital in Torbay a number of times – with NHS staff stabilising his health and allowing him to go back out “waving” in the Bay. However, the visits are becoming far more frequent and I have started to receive enquiries about his health – even from the local and national media! Typical of my Dad, (he taught us to always find a way through the current hardship), he is dictating the content of his latest posts to whichever family member is visiting him. Hopefully, he will rise again for one more good round – and demonstrate his mettle and grit yet again!

Hedgehog Eating & Drinking!

Sutton: Hedgehog Asks for Water During Heat-Wave! (14.7.2025)

When I lived in Devon during my youth – hedgehogs used to be everywhere. We used to see them all the time and most gardens possessed at least one resident hedgehog. I know some lived very long and grew to surprising sizes. The last time I saw a hedgehog in Sutton was probably around 2008 in the back garden of the then house (in Westfield Road) I lived-in – but I have not seen one in the wild since then. The only time we have seen hedgehogs locally – has been in special areas of nature conservation but in a sense – these are not truly wild in the unmanaged sense. I am not sure why we do not see so many wild hedgehog in the Sutton area – perhaps their populations are low – or they choose to hide for some reason. We hope their numbers improve and remember to give them water and cat-food – or similar!

Grifting Anarchists Wander Around a Lorry...

How Ukrainian “Anarchists” Support Neo-Nazism and Misrepresent Asian Philosophy! (27.6.2025)

Post after post talked with a self-righteous certainty about how the pursuers of this path were obviously “morally” superior. Then, all of a sudden, Ukrainian (Neo-Nazi) soldiers were featured as “exemplars” of this form of Anarchy – together with regular reports of “how many Russians they had killed”! This demonstrates how Indian religion is completely misrepresented in the West – “Ahimsa” [non-violence] requires a complete uprooting of all hatred from within the human mind and body. Saving a chicken whilst killing Russians sound suspiciously like Hitler’s Animal Rights ideas. Whilst millions of humans were fed through Hitler’s Death Factories during WWII – he passed strict laws protecting the rights of animals! These Anarchists in Ukraine are just like their unelected government – and firm supporters of Neo-Nazism. One of the most recent posts (written in English) states that Anarchists all over the US and Europe fully support Neo-Nazism in Ukraine – and criticise Trump for calling for an end of the war in Donbass! You couldn’t make it – but I suppose trusting Anarchists in any situation is a ridiculous expectation.

Reaction & Religion Go Hand in Hand!

UK: The Kind Idiocy of Mary Augusta Ward [1851-1920]! (24.3.2025)

It is incredible that someone such as Bishop Smith thinks that Mary Ward – the co-founder of the “National Women’s Anti-Suffrage League” – is a person worthy of remembering when she dedicated her life to preventing society from developing – a process which required the lifting of the religious ignorance that had dominated the West for over a thousand years. Furthermore, the White, middle-class and thoroughly “male” interpretation of Christianity Bishop Smith and Ward seem to be peddling has virtually nothing to do with the teachings of Jesus Christ – and has more in common with the ramblings of St Paul – a fantasist who never met Jesus. The situation is probably more confusing than even this – as many of the letters ascribed to Paul – particularly the misogynistic editions – are thought to be forgeries.

Disability in Ancient Egypt!

Disability History Month: British Museum – Eight Histories of Disabled People in Ancient Egypt! (18.12.2024)

Disabled people have always been present and active in society. Many specialists and experts around the world have started to investigate representations and lived experiences of disability and care in the past through archaeology and museum collections. The objects and remains highlighted here demonstrate some of the stories we are uncovering and hint at the discoveries that might be made in the future. We hope that these stories will demonstrate to everyone that disabled people have always existed and been part of the story of humanity, and empower disabled people to see themselves in history, and to continue making it, thousands of years into the future.

Shi Da Dao - Caodong Lineage - Fly-Whisk

China: Old Master Xu Yun [1840-1959] is Still Sat in Meditation! (17.10.2024)

I once saw a Westerner (a German) living in China. He could read, write and talk the Chinese language – and had been accepted as a Disciple by a Daoist Master (this is not easy to do – even if you happen to be ethnically “Chinese”). He was able to perform a secret Daoist gongfu Form -where he used the fly-whisk as a self-defence implement. There was no violence – just lots of spiralling movement. All I can do with my fly-whisk is lift it up and down occasionally. I suppose it all comes down to timing.
