Off-Guardian – May 31, 2026
Our successor to This Week in the Guardian, This Week in the New Normal is our weekly chart of the progress of autocracy, authoritarianism and economic restructuring around the world.
1. The end of over-the-counter medicines?
A report from ITV is warning that millions of Brits may be in danger of becoming addicted to codeine via non-prescription medicines:
“Around 10 million people in the UK may have put themselves at risk of developing a dependency or addiction to codeine-based painkillers
But it’s not just painkillers, it’s antihistamines and sleep aids too:
In a separate survey looking at sleep aids containing H1 antihistamines, 1 in 6 users of Nytol, 1 in 5 users of Sleepease and over a third of Phenergen users admitted to using them for longer than the recommended period.
It’s a totally hypothetical crisis, but no less terrifying for that. The problem is they just don’t have any data…
ITV Tonight spoke with a variety of experts, who all shared concerns about a lack of data when it comes to the scale of dependency on common over the counter medicines […] The separate data that records supply and sales of these potentially habit forming medicines isn’t joined up on any kind of accessible database.
“There is a challenge in that the data that is available isn’t joined up,” says Dr Roz Gittins, Chief Pharmacy officer of the General Pharmaceutical Council.
“As the regulator of pharmacies, we don’t have sight of that data, we don’t have access to that information.”
And if you can’t see where it goes from here, you haven’t been paying attention.
First, digital ID will be required to purchase simple medicines. Then the acquired data will be labelled evidence of a “hidden crisis”, and buying those medicines will be made harder or impossible without state permission.
2. The Rise of the AI Zombies
Iconic Marvel Comics founder Stan Lee died in 2018, but that won’t be putting a stop to his movie cameos any time soon.
AI company ElevenLabs has the digital rights to Lee’s voice and likeness, and is planning on making them available on their site:
The AI audio company on Wednesday said it struck an expansive deal with Stan Lee Universe, the joint venture between Genius Brands International and POW! Entertainment, to add the late Marvel Comics writer’s voice and likeness to the ElevenLabs Iconic Marketplace, its collection of celebrity personality voices and likenesses that companies can license for commercial use.
Lee is not the first deceased person to have the voice or likeness licensed in this way. Just a few weeks ago, the estate of the late Val Kilmer permitted his appearance in a new film.
It’s all getting very, very creepy.
3. Is the new “autism test” all it seems?
A “landmark study” is claiming a new test can diagnose autism with a single urine sample at a very young age, avoiding years of screening:
A simple urine test may be able to detect autism sooner than traditional screening, a new study suggests.
As autism now affects one in 31 American children – a stark increase from one in 150 in the early 2000s – experts are searching for potential causes and screening tools to catch the condition sooner.
Doctors typically use questionnaires, observational tests and cognitive screening to detect autism, but the process can take months or even years.
Now, scientists at Arizona State University have created a urine test that screens for 17 microbial metabolites, molecules produced by microorganisms in the gut.
This is supposedly great because catching it early makes everything easier, classifying autism as a fully biological condition “removes the stigma” and, according to one of the researchers:
that will prevent any hesitancy on parents’ parts to seek treatment and seek it as early as possible.’
But the cynic in me is very dubious of any test that can be done on children as young as two that accelerates “treatment” for a life-long condition.
It seems to me you’re looking at a test that will be used to funnel kids into a lifetime dependency on mood-altering medications, hooking their income up to big pharma before they even have one, and potentially making a large portion of the population more docile in the process.
But that’s just me.
BONUS: Outdated fear of the week
The Associated Press is concerned about guns… 300-year-old guns:
A musket from 1776 can fire a lead ball at a velocity of around 1,000 feet per second.
Imagine what that can do to a human body. Yet under federal and most state laws, it’s exempt from gun regulations. Many antique or replica guns aren’t considered firearms and even convicted… pic.twitter.com/RBT5ihazdA

The Independent is likewise worried about…
The bizarre firearms loophole around Americans and their deadly muskets
I genuinely didn’t know this was a thing, and don’t trust the mainstream news about anything at all…but if I was American and could legally buy a black-powder musket and/or cannon, I absolutely would be considering it.

All told a pretty hectic week for the new normal crowd, and we didn’t even mention Earth’s sinking cities or New York’s vaccine mandates.
There’s a lot of change in the air, a lot of agendas in the works, if you see a headline, article, post or interview you think is a sign of the times, post it in the comments, email us or share it on social media and we will add it to the next edition.

I’m no medic but I know the causes. It’s the forced injections. But tell that to the prolls and you will get looks of disbelief.
you nention antiques, folk in the UK know money will soon be discounted and are investing in all sorts
antiques are a favourite, i work in a large antique shop and past few months
things have been zooming out as fast as they come in
when the jewbankers collapse the economy, antiques owners say they will feel safe
much of the spedtien files is D noticed for the uk
if it says much about our chaps
but people are laughing at mndelsons rent boys having to put perfume on the back sides before going to him, this is not unusual althrough some homosexuals like the small of boys backsides
The UK has banned a quite prominent US broadcaster from entering the UK because he criticises Israel. Cenk Uygur (pronounced Chenk) and his co-host Ana Kasparian from The Young Turks are rather mainstream, they’re just honest about Israel. He was due to speak at Oxford but they stopped him. Our governments sold out to the nastiest bunch of racists b*st*rds who ever stole another land.

what is amazing is that elaine pagels did possibly the best interpretation of the dead sea scrolls
but any historical finds such as ancient papyri have to be handed over to the IDF the israeli authorities, failure to hand them over can mean prison and your house demolished or given to jewish settlers now if the e support what israel wants to say, it is released but a lot does get destroyed
some amazing stuff has been smuggled out and now at the vatican
thank god the dirty jews did not get hold of it
please god the vatican releases it
A urine sample will show just about everything humans take in , in the case of these unfortunate autistic , their urine samples still show the flushing out of the many vaccines taken. With every flush the urine returns to our underground or municipal water systems. Add the massive use of prescription drugs , to the massive use of fentanyl, opiums, and other pharma products , the pee re enters our municipal water and the underground. Just one pharma product alone gets 48 million users. An incredible amount of prex drug use flushes back to the water for all of us to enjoy. This is what is killing the planet.
Police probing six stabbings after Arsenal parade in London
Story by Alice Scarsi •
Police said they are investigating six stabbings following the Arsenal Champions Parade held in north London on Sunday. The Metropolitan Police issued an update on Monday, June 1, just hours after the parade ended
London isa wonderful place to get stabbed
some folk say “ah i went there 3 times and never got stabbed”.

laying on the floor in agony i soon found the medics came for me, apparently the blade was dirty and i got a bad infection from itpolice said what colour were the attackers ?
i said dont be silly you know who does this stuff.
the force thanked “the vast majority of people who attended the Arsenal Champions Parade” who celebrated responsibly. However, they added, a number of probes were launched in light of a string of incidents. A total of 24 people were arrested at the event, which saw the deployment of more than 500 police officers alongside specialist search and drone teams,

They said to avoid being stabbed just hand over your wallet, these boys were swinging though the tress in africa up until recently
10 people were arrested on suspicion of assault on police, with the force adding one officer suffered a slash wound to the hand and another was hit on the head, with both injuries allegedly caused by objects thrown by migrants
eight people were arrested on suspicion of sexual assault, mostly minor stuff like bum stroking or tit grabbings
The Way Forward for Aryan Man
In Aleister Crowley’s ‘Liber OZ’ he states:
1. Man has the right to live by his own law.
Thus according to Thelema, if masses of white men/women use racist language & collectively express a will to live in a monoracial white society/nations free of Jews/wogs, then they have the right to do so.
So what about all the commies & scum who oppose the white man’s right to live by his own law?
Crowley then states at the end of Liber OZ:
5. Man has the right to kill those who would thwart these rights.

Daniel Boone named his .44 Pennsylvanioa long rifle “Old Tick-Licker” because he could shoot a tick off a deer without hitting a hair as he liked to brag like the badass he was.
@Boris
“1. Man has the right to live by his own law.”
Human groups are notorious for their widely differing opinions and understandings.
Every group has their law.
So, which one will decide what is “man’s own law”?
One group trying to impose its points of view forcibly unto others means war or conquest.
And if you mean it is an individual decision, that is, that each one makes his own law, that’s chaos and it also means war, this time internal war, brother abusing or killing brother.
Sorry, but you can’t go it by rejecting the good’ol Ten Commandments.
my comment to boris was blocked
Tough. This website is not a Aiwass Army recruitment centre.
@costa latorre
the chemical industry has poisoned our soil
in industry nations in Europa + USA already
since 1930 + the underground waters . I saw
massdieing of riverfishes 1950 right after the
war . BACK TO STONEAGE ONLY SAVES
THE EARTH .
The ten Commandments are really the three or four Commandments.
So what awesome gott here?
Four Commandments say “honor and obey a semitic volcano demon, and do what he tells you.”
One says “be nice to mama and poppa” — we can live with that.
The rest forbid crimes and bad behaviors that arise out of coveting and envy:
He stole it because he coveted it.
She killed him because it made her feel better.
He bore false witness because he was envious of her good reputation, or he would get some benefit.
Yeah, you should treat your parents with respect.
To do that, simply live by The Nine Noble Virtues, because they form the very “grammer” of Aryan life and they constitute our “behavioral parts of speech,” you could say, and I just did.
Courage is the Foundation.
Then come the Four hooked arms.
Courage engenders Honor, engenders Truth.
Courage engenders Self-Reliance, engenders Industriousness.
Courage engenders Discipline, engenders Persistence.
Courage engenders Fidelity, engenders Hospitality.
Conversely:
Without Honor, Truth is a Lie.
Without Fidelity, Hospitality is TREASON.
Without Discipline, Persistence cannot persist.
And Without Self-Reliance, Industriousness is unknown.
Down with the volcano demon!
Boot out its “Chosen People!”
Judea delenda est!
@Ghost
You have got it all wrong, mixing up, substituting courage for love.
Your beloved Adolf Hitler said himself:
“The true soldier doesn’t fight on because he hates what is in front of him but because he loves what is behind him”
If you pay attention, he is telling you that without love you will have no backbone, no courage.
Without love you only will be an egotistical self-loving coward, unable to defend anyone that is behind you and that needs protection, women, children.
You just told us what you really are.
Shame on you!
@Ghost (continuation)
It’s love what engenders courage.
Hate doesn’t
You will cowardly run away at the first sight of real danger.
You can see that in the hate-driven Israeli army (IDF) whose soldiers run like cockroaches when their hide is in danger.
