Cruel Execution

 

Much as I despise this disgusting individual, I think (hope?!!!) I would curb my (in my opinion) fully understandable lust for revenge or just the wish to "blot him out". I see him as one of the most despicable creatures of this century, both because of what he does, has done and plans to do and for being whom he is: An egomaniac, a pedophile, rapist, cheat, embezzler, grifter and - in my opinion - a criminal, yes, maybe even a murderer of several people. For instance, Epstein died at a very convenient time, as did Ivana, and both of them had wounds that didn't fit the story of their death.

What happened in that, by now, very famous prison cell with the 11 sheets? Nobody knows for sure, but the guesses are many and persistent: If it wasn't a suicide, then what happened, and who did this to him if he didn't do it himself?

I'm one of those who think that these two men had a business relationship of some art and not only a friendship: Actually, I, for one, suspect that The Orange Menace was more than a friend and customer of Epstein. If the allegations of one of the victims, Maria Farmer, are trustworthy then his then wife, Ivana, may have been into trafficking herself for a while which also makes her husband a suspect. In my opinion there are details in the tRump-Epstein-relationship that hasn't been seen - or seen for what they are - as Maria Farmer has told of how she, Ivana and her friend, Ghislaine went out scouting for underage girls to the Epstein-trafficking-business. If that's true, then it opens up to many new questions about the real nature of the relationship of tRump and Epstein. That should make it clear that I don't in the least like him, but what would I be, or become, if I took out my revenge in one of the cruel manners that have been used up through history? Well, I would become someone I don't want to spend time with, so to speak: There are, and should be, limits to cruelty and revenge. 

 

No matter what, I wouldn't allow myself - or others - to do to Don the Con what some people in the past have done to their enemies. Actually, there are several instances of something that might be called "over-kill" where someone in power takes it upon him-/herself to punish an individual they feel deserves the worst of the worst. Some of these "over-kill"-instances sort of turn grotesque for what is the use of this extreme cruelty? For instance, one may find it awful that the leader of the Dutch revolt, William the Silent of the House og Orange was murdered by Balthazar Gérard (c. 1557–1584), but the fact that it led to an extremely brutal and painful execution of his murderer doesn't bring him back, and this torture just is too much. Not even the orange Menace would deserve something like e.g. "drawing and Quartering".

Balthazar Gerard 

Wikipedia: To read what was done to him makes it obvious that he must have looked forward to the last stage of the torture when he was quartered and disemboweled alive, his heart was torn out and flung in his face before his head was cut off. I often said that I think Don the Con owes Old Sparky a date for high treason in stealing documents, and other grave crimes, but to see his heart - if he has one, which is debatable - flung into his face is too much. Many people would love to kick his butt, but not something like that.

"Caressed in Life": Poem by Else Cederborg

 

 

"Caressed In Life": Poem by Else Cederborg

Cornered in by walls of misery

is that your given place in life?

I don't think so, never shall

no walls can blot out your existence

not even those made of misery

You live, reluctantly, but you do

something within carries you along

you even float without realizing it

Believe my word: Next you're going to soar

To make you reach that star you call yours

tender hands support you and caress you

lovingly they stroke your cheek, support your feet

don't ever think they don't because they do

caressed and loved in life are you - yes, YOU .…

Stalking Young Queen Victoria

Queen Victoria, 20 years old 

She was not considered a beauty, but the idea of someone that young becoming the Queen of England, thus gaining a lot of power, even though she is a woman, did set "flies in the bonnet" of some of her male subjects. Some tried to shoot her for reasons best known to themselves, but which we may guess at. Others courted her in futile attempts to attract her attention for romance. In her teens she herself was infatuated by Lord Melbourne, who undeniably was a handsome man.

Lord Melbourne instructs the young Queen Victoria.

Victoria might adore the Lord, but I've never heard anything about him being in love with or just attracted to her. However, she didn't lack suitors as several men did have some kind of feelings for her, either of a non-romantic, mercenary art or something else: Sexual attraction. One of these "men" was a teenager who has gained everlasting fame by stalking her in a special and somewhat weird manner. The name of this teenager was Edward "Boy" Jones (1824– c. 1893 or 1896), and he didn't in the least belong to her social circles: He was a chimney sweep who several times broke into Buckingham Palace in order to steal her underwear, letters and whatever items he could get his hands on. That can't have been an easy exploit, as the palace of course was heavily guarded and she was protected in any way possible, so one wonders at his bravery in doing something like that to get what he wanted. By the way, it seems he stole her underwear and carried it out of the palace stuck into his trousers which I find both funny as well as kind of suggestive.

When he was caught - and that also happened several times - he received a sentence of hard labor for some months, but that didn't make him stop his habit of stalking the Queen so he was sent to Australia for 10 years. When he came back he just went on as a burglar for some time, before he decided to go back to Australia.

Turning One's Back On The Patriarchy

 

Yup, and the Korean women who started the 4B-Movement really mean business: No men, no dating, no sex, no marriage and no babies. The declining Korean birth rate tells a true story of women who have had enough. However, they don't fight the Patriarchy in the same manner as e.g. the feminists of the 1970's which had an element of ongoing discussion: The women believed in men's ability to listen and learn, but the 4B-women have given up on the male gender altogether.

The movement has been spreading for quite some time, and after the American 2024 election of the ultra male chauvenist, the blatant misogynist, and women abuser, Donald tRump, American women also have become interested in the movement: The incels may lament their situation as men who can't get a date, using the old tricks of "seduction" and living by the outdated rules for how the sexes make an interaction work. Not so long ago  women were caught in a web of sex roles that didn't give them much room for designing their own, independent lives. They have had to suppress themselves for a long time to fit into the pre-conceived ideologies that kept them in a fierce stronghold of suppressive ideas about womanhood, and they have become fed up with that system.

Actually, The 4B-movement has spread globally from South Korea to the US, China, and Australia - perhaps even more. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that it has gained access to Muslim countries which uphold a grotesquely twisted system of gender control. If not I'm sure it will come.

The Dead Man Who Never Existed

 

Some lives look normal, but are anything but ordinary. For instance there is/was the man who checked into the Irish Sligo City Hotel in June 2009. Presumaby his name was "Peter Bergmann", and he was an Austrian with a non-disclosed reason to visit Ireland. For the next couple of days he was caught on various business cameras throughout the town, busy distributing some of his belongings. Some days after checking at the hotel his dead body was found on a popular beach, and this started a lengthy investigation about him, his identity and his reasons for visiting Ireland. However, nothing came of this police investigation, except one thing: He didn't exist and never had existed, as there are no records of him anywhere. People didn't forget about this weird case of non-existence, and in 2013 there was a documentary, "The Last Days of Peter Bergman", about it. The interest and fascination was such that it has become very popular with the members of some websites. They still discuss the strange case of a man who died in Ireland, presumably, without having been alive anywhere else ....

Saved???

Well, it seems that I succeeded in saving my Boobytrap-blog, but I don't know why it, all of a sudden, acted crazy, so it may not be for long. Disasters happen, but I hope there will not be too many for either of in 2026.

HAPPY NEW YEAR to all of you

A New Blog???

As I for some time have had some WEIRD problems with my blog, BOOBYTRAP, I may close it and start another one, either here or somewhere else. If I do, I shall leave the link here.
