The worst disappointment for me is from people

"... the way in which he presents himself and engages in the context of covid, I no longer comment on that at all. I'm afraid he put his last brain cells into this (really good) book.” I read sometimes between reviews of my book Chandelier for the Pope. Or today this post by a gentleman I remember from my…

All has been said - all has been written

This text was originally written in December last year, but since then almost nothing has changed and I wouldn't change a single comma of the text - maybe only that the impact will be a bit harder again and to other professions, apart from journalists and doctors, who continue to fail and…

Sourdough bread

This is a bit of an unusual post for me, but my wife has been experimenting with baking her own bread for a long time and it's just a mess (see photo) and since it may come in handy very soon, I'd like to share it with you. Yeast is the basis and it has a great…

Fast ecological charging…

We will paint the stand green - it will be cool, the customer will be satisfied and Greta's heart will dance. Wake up to better tomorrows! It's a pity that in our country 41 % of electricity is produced by burning coal, 39 % from the core and in winter, when the sun doesn't shine much, the share of solar and wind energy is -…

Butterfly scream bestseller

Books have a special "start". Nobody knew Dan Brown here after it was published - Master Leonardo's Code sat on the shelves for about five years and nobody read it. Then, with some mysterious flapping of butterfly wings, the book became "in" and sales broke records. Although in my case...

What can I do myself?

One question keeps appearing over and over again - "What can I do myself?" And I say, there is an awful lot - everyone can influence those around them and set an example by how they live, what they do, what they can do and thus have the greatest effect on those around them. I am trying to write if you are selling for example…

No, opinion really doesn't have to be backed up by facts!

Human stupidity and ignorance of the meaning of words never ceases to fascinate me, including many "journalists". Over this comment of mine, the expression of Radiožurnál, for example, the hearts of many haters jumped, because I said I kicked myself, what a pro-Russian bitch I am and also a fool, when I defend the fact that someone's opinion does not have to be supported by facts... It is...

I haven't understood this for two years and it just keeps getting worse

As a conspirator, misinformer and anti-vaxer who has been accused of many times, I will not engage in any speculation, because the time is really dangerously late, but I will just ask, because I somehow don't have enough brains to understand what is happening. Does our state, according to long-term contracts, still buy vaccines for 900 million per month, which it disposes of again for expensive money, because almost no one gets vaccinated anymore? Why…

Beware of treacherous windows

You may have noticed that President Biden has a new adviser on nuclear energy - Mr./Ms./It Sam Brinton. It's not about tolerance at all - I've gone to Prague Pride many times to support everyone's freedom - but here it's not about freedom at all, but about the dangerous Overton windows and what they actually hide and what their purpose is...
