Liberty Quote
Do not consider Collectivists as “sincere but deluded idealists”. The proposal to enslave some men for the sake of others is not an ideal; brutality is not “idealistic,” no matter what its purpose. Do not ever say that the desire to “do good” by force is a good motive. Neither power-lust nor stupidity are good motives.
— Ayn Rand-

“One of those killers is now in hospital, fighting for his life, from the corona virus. What goes round, eh?”
Please let it be that animal with the trophy hands held up, running with the blood of his victim. And lease virus, finish him off.

The level of corruption is mind boggling.
Everyone expects politics be be corrupt, but the problem in the USA is that the judiciary is also corrupt. There’s no getting back from that when the MSM are part of the corruption.

On the 22nd May, 2013, Fusileer Lee Rigby, of the Royal Regiment of Fusileers…
I’m pleased you mentioned Rigby, Zulu. We need reminders now and then.
It’s even easier to forget the names of those paid propaganda cowards in the media and politics who dehumanised Rigby by insisting that he was an acceptable casualty of fridgefauxbia. Where are those safe, protected, well-remunerated cowards now? None of us could imagine the trauma he must have endured in those final minutes. All those cowards who insisted there was ‘nothing to see here, move along,’ need to have congratulatory cards mailed to them on the anniversary of his death each year. No threats or illegalities, just ‘Congratulations on dismissing the death of a human being. If you don’t remember, we do.’

Except they didn’t.
They endured curfews, turned their lights out at night, blackened their windows, dug bomb shelters in their backyards, obediently obeyed rationing for years, carried around gas masks, donated money etc etc all because their Government told them to.
Primary school must have been the best ten years of your life.
GM, I would think the family and friends of Lee Rigby would praying for a slow painful death for that pos.
I am.
St Ruth.
Come on, man!
Where’s the fight-back?
I was hoping you would have a tale of the reprise of the cavalcade of cartes, with you standing on a restaurant table urging the diners onwards to the barricades.
But what do we get?
You mumbling about “wrong phone” and letting Mrs St Ruth do the talking for you.
Poor form.
And not very chivalrous.
Mini me, stop embarrassing yourself, you started early on the grog today go have a kip.
Yay, the groovy gang leader has joined in.
Leigh, you’ve misread today’s schedule. Check your email.
Yeah biggles, check your email.
Oops, sorry Nick.
I was looking at yesterday’s running sheet.
OK, let’s see what we’ve got today.
Ah yes, the “stolen valour” thing.
Only three months until Posturing Day.
How many buried sets of guns is required to meet the “4chan” standard?
How does the number of buried gun stashes by Struth vary from the Cat average?
There are significant difficulties with the operational logistics scanning of QR codes.
Apart from the nanny state/social credit angle.
That’s better. Just a heads up that tomorrow is a great day for Peter to do a guest post about the great indigenous uprising in WA.
Hey biggles, seeing as we are good mates, any chance you can fly over to Manchester & give my wife a lift home in your A340?
I will pay you in bananas, all freshly shot with my sniper rifle.
Now, how are we measuring this?
Those who have a buried stash?
Or those who can remember where it is?
I’m sensing masks, southerners, sacrifice, gulags and cows, yes, lots of cows.
St Ruth.
Just try character assassination when you can’t fight the substance of the argument.
Your boy above thinks the Anzacs weren’t fighting tyrannical governments because they turned off their lights and dug bomb shelters, …..you can’t make this shit up, you should have better control.
Let me put it this way, you’ve gone for quantity, not quality in your little gang…..oops.
Now look at the mess you have to clean up,..again… so in you come ,using your tedious mocking style wit like a school brat….as per usual, but keep at it, you’ve got sweet FA to lose at this point and have never had anything else up your sleeve ever.
You’ll need slightly easier parameters than that
You’re confessing to forgetting where your hardware is buried?
I offered, but she is shacked up with an imam and doesn’t want to come home.
She is wife #4 hoping for an upgrade to the podium if things go well.
She said it is less demeaning than being wife #1 on the banana share-farm.

I know where all the triggers are Sal.

I see Kevin Odious Cretin Rudd has conveniently called for a change to Australia Day from the safety of well remunerated life after politics.
No other reason is ever needed to keep the date just as it is.
Struth, ditch the guitar or banjo, you should do stand up comedy. One second it’s ‘character assassination’, the next it’s ‘little gang’. Just what is it man ?
I want his death to be lingering over months.
And just consider what awaits him when he finally dies.
I had an interesting conversation with an American friend. He caught the China bug and at the end of week 1. He’s a very wealthy Jooish American dude with a big interest in Israeli / Mid East relations.
Anyways, without going into details in terms of what he personally did for the recent peace process. He reckons the thing that got the Gulf Sunnis really fucking interested in a peace process was this.
A couple of years ago.. remember when Saudi oil fields and oil installations came under drone attack? Everyone knows it was the Iranians but hard evidence was lacking. No matter, because everyone knew it was them.
What did Trump do? He basically yawned. The US imposed a few more light sanctions on the turban heads, but that was about it. The Sunnis suddenly realized they were alone – or at least energy independent US no longer gave much of a shit about the Mid East.
The Gulf states were then politely informed that there were three superpowers in their region. These are Iran, Turkey and Israel. Israel is the only one not interested in taking their territory.
Mini me i told you to go to bed, now bugger off & sleep it off, you will feel better tomorrow.
Don’t forget to to check your emails though.
Look at the dribble coming back at me from Nick there Frank……he’s lost the plot completely.
The poor bastard.
You’re to blame for this Frank, you know he shouldn’t have been left all alone to comment.
Being a gang leader has responsibilities.
Haven’t you heard, the government have brought in duty of care for gang leaders as well.
I bet you haven’t even supplied him with a hi viz shirt!
What sort of operation are you running?
St Ruth Ch 2 verse 10
“ Just try character assassination when you can’t fight the substance of the argument”
Mini me, the only substance to your argument is surrender, are you french?
JC.
What does your friend think will happen under the new administration?
You could all have nice little pink hi viz shirts with really nice cursive writing embroidered on the back saying “The Sneerers”
A bit of hair cream and you could even try to grow some sideburns.
How’s fighting the substance of the argument going, Struth ?
Mini me, try waving a white flag at Can’tberra, it may help you.
Get that bloody sock out of your jeans Nick.
You weren’t listening to Frank.
He said put the sock down the FRONT of your levis.
Oh. Not well it seems.
Mini me, looks like the groovy gang have deserted you.
Oh no…….I thought that was a balled up socks.
vr
He’s demonrat, but I don’t think he’s too happy with the kid sniffer. I couldn’t get it out of him if he voted for the sniffer and just sat it out.
He didn’t like Trump though because he thought he too aggressive and was always fighting. I suggested they were his good points. 🙂
He loved Trumpster for the economy.
The groovy gang are probably having a zoom meeting.
Revolution seems to be the only way out.
Can those taken with measuring others at the urinals please take a breather?
Shipping costs causing low value items to go out of stock. Main cause is 4 shipping companies are now 2.

No other reason is ever needed to keep the date just as it is.
If they changed the day, the idiots would just change the day they protested against it.
Hehe, the ye olde carrot and stick approach. Carrot was Kushner smoothing the path with the Israelis. Stick was ‘don’t call us we’ll call u’ next time a scud lands on a refinery.

Nice kookas. I also like the Latham tweet that comes up below it.
You seem to have swung off down the Morrison [add Premier’s name] is literally Hitler road.
Like most people, I’m not impressed with the political duck-shoving, pro tem handing-off of responsibility to ‘the science’ and the sacred CMO’s, and the utter, uncharted economic irresponsibility.
But this is shitty retail politicians given a free hand to react to circumstances – not a ‘movement’ trying to achieve some greater outcome.
If the left want to play at de-platforming, which they do (big time) the least any right-of-centre groups should do is ban them in return, wherever they appear. It should be done here.
No more soft soap.
They are thread polluters and of no use whatsoever.
Phew. Just caught Hairy in time after I’d sent him off to purchase the food for tomorrow’s guests.
Just got their email. I’d decided on a salad and some cold meats. But no way now. No processed meats thank you. So don’t get the prosciutto for my asparagus spears, just the asparagus, I say, and no ham nor deli sliced beef either. Get a ready-roast chook and some salmon pieces which I can do tonight in foil. We’ll have those cold instead. With the avocado and tomato and hydroponic green salad.
These people are very old friends who readily accepted my late invitation to come here for Australia Day. I’m still hanging out my flag, says Hairy defiantly, who on hearing of my invitation got defensive, as these friends are still rather to the left, and may indeed have taken on board the anti-Oz day feeling.
Nah, I say. They won’t dare object to your flag. They accepted pretty fast. There’s not much going on for Australia Day this year – why, even our usual non-left group who gather on this day on the Northern Beaches are all shattered by Covid and thus not calling an Oz day in the way they have in past years.
We’re still confined to only 5 guests I think, that’s probably the reason.
I just saw a gratuitous anti Catholic post on FB. I did what any Leftist would do, report the post for bigotry.
Just found out that the girl at Cricket Australia destroying Australia Day for cricket is the son of Barrie Cassidy the ABC luvvie that Hawke used to drill for vegemite.
Like father and son dents in their poo.
How do these idiots get jobs in these sporting organisations. Wouldn’t have bowled an over or held a bat in his life.
The ABC’s memo on “Invasion Day” has supposedly been “corrected” after some sort of intervention from Minister Fletcher.
If those commies knew that he was watching them from the get go, they would never have tried this sleight of hand in the first place. All it takes is a bit of push and shove and they can still keep their “independence.” Cough!
Lol. Rita’s giving Lucy Turnbull a serve. Lobbed on from Evonne Goolagong, another national treasure.
Yes. Up to Sinc though to decide who has the right to free speech here.
Lizzie, are your guests dictating their dietary requirements after accepting your kind invitation? The same thing happens to me, but only with family. The J ewish ones I understand, but the others?
They could always bring their own food, just to be on the safe side! 😀
One of the virtues of still subscribing to the Oz is that you can do this there too.
Hairy is always firing off emails to their chief mod honcho Jason Someone pointing out such things.
needs the cells for right wingers.
‘No processed meats thank you.’
Well fine then. Just FINE.
Biggest trading day of the year for the poor old vendor, aside from Grand Final Day, and outside weddings scheduled by succubi on Grand Final Day.
Now look what you’ve done. Barry’s upset and everything.
So the minister can intervene when he wants to.
Which means when he doesn’t it’s because he supports what they’re doing.

I like showing my gallery to Greens.

Vegan sister does that. It’s very considerate and much appreciated. It also saves her the trouble of picking through the kitchen tidy to retrieve cheese packaging etc in order to determine if it contains rectin.
Lucy Loose Flaps is an embarressment.
Even the dickhead Turncoat should shy away – except she’s got a quid he needs.
Calli, to be fair to them, the husband has had a serious digestive cancer. We were aware of that and would have been careful in what we offered anyway, hence a simple cold collation; but this is a different sort of bender they are on. An anti-cancer health kick with no lovely cured meats.
Hairy’s had cancer and wouldn’t trouble himself with such a thing. He eats anything heartily if it’s tasty. He does though have an almost religious faith in the virtues of plentiful red wine and gym three times weekly.
This …. a year later with them telling you that the QR tracking is staying, the “build back better is happening”

You say straight out that the pollies have handed responsibility to the unelected, but can’t grasp the unelected swamp has an agenda?
Here’s the agenda…….your freedom is killing the planet. It must be squashed.

They are very sweet people and we have seen our kids and theirs grow up, sharing all the ups and downs of it, so they do need our friendship now, especially as he has been so unexpectedly ill. I little dietary concession is neither here nor there, and we studiously avoid politics. Guess in the upper reaches of life one has to expect something Damoclean at any time and should expect old friends to be there.
I am wondering if Johanna ever made it up with those old friends of hers whom she found rejected her due to her political differences with them. I hope she did. Perhaps she’ll tell us one day.
Back from some errands.
QR signs up everywhere, but no one checking in & no staff complaining about the biz.

The humanity! Very likely this business has interrupted someone’s WEB. As the Minister has weighed in, the ABC firemen forced to make the sacrifice will all be Captains and the arsonists but petty meddlers. They will be given a good bollocking for their altruism.
ABC buckles after ‘Invasion Day’ furore
The ABC has removed references to Australia Day as ‘Invasion Day’ from an online story after widespread criticism.
Channel 7 News:
Meanwhile, a man is expected to appear in court on Monday charged with starting a bushfire at a separate spot in the Adelaide Hills.
A patrol car spotted a vehicle speeding away from the fire on Piggott Range Road at Clarendon on Sunday evening.
Police stopped the car and arrested the 60-year-old, who faces charges of causing a bushfire, unlicensed driving and drink driving, and engaging in a police pursuit.
The same man is being questioned about the nearby Cherry Gardens fire which had several ignition points. An earlier fire in a forest area near Gumeracha is also suspected deliberately lit.
Not sure if the arrest is part of SAPOL’s excellent Operation Nomad, but the the quick action by police suggests that it might be.
In Two Bob Each Way news:
Anthony Albanese says Australia Day should stay on 26 January
Forget the barbie.
Arrival of the First Fleet = teachable moment.
That’ll “unite Australia, rather than engage in culture wars”.
The biggest risk is some koala full of chlamydia gets hold of one the AK’s & goes on a shooting spree.

So, tell me Albo, what did say, recent Asian immigrants to Australia do? Should their kids be lectured to simply owing to not being indigenous ? One day late and we’d be speaking French and eating decent food.
If the guy is crook then he gets a pass Lizzie. Like pregnancy.
On that diet, Hairy will be immortal.
If I fought in WW2 it would have been for neo ludditism, backyard burning off, serenity now! and nuking the *”man” of steel* after we licked the less silent Axis parties (and literally wiped them off the map).
A Luddite with nukes? Not impossible, I say, Googling grammarians.
Ladies and gentlemen, presenting newly inSTALLED Press-a+dent, Joe Turbanashanalpressha Bidet!
Ask them if the bee consents to the honey they eat.
Our lunch today was boiled eggs on brown bread toast with a can of anchovies scattered over them.
So delicious. Hairy’s cardiologist told him to limit salt, so we have little disputes about my salting of the vegetables as they boil, ease up, he calls to stay my hand; but somehow heavily salted anchovies, olives, pork crackling and similar delights readily escape the cardiologist’s noose. It’s the good sort of salty, is Hairy’s ready excuse as he chews into the Spanish anchovies today.
I’m not an arsonist, I was just spreading low till permaculture to the inner city.
My entertainment for most of the day has been talking with government peoples.
Had to get something from a Federal department thenceforth receiving several letters from another Federal Department which does the same thing. Those letters instructed me to fill out an intelligent PDF form which instructed me to ring a third Federal department which does the same thing. So I did. They told me to ring a fourth Federal department which does the same thing, who, after an hour an a half on the phone transferred me to a fifth Federal department which does the same thing, who after another hour told me I’d have to contact a sixth Federal government department who does the same thing. It was fun in a masochistic sort of way.
Fear and hysteria have fried your brain notafan.
You weren’t in lock down, it never happened did it?
You were as free as a bird, who could suggest otherwise….just the naughty people. Those bad men.
Don’t worry about them, they’re not very nice, are they?
Now sit down, and get a glass of water……just take it easy…..it’s not happening, everything is fine…..phooey to those people who keep on as if it was something to worry about…..all is fine…..not a problem……there is no tyranny, there’s nothing to be concerned about……that a girl, you’ll be fine……………
Good point Nick.
Just like the reparations argument in the US, everything about what’s called reconciliation should have a level scientific method about it.
Example, DNA testing to ensure only those who are genuinely indigenous can benefit from it.
And some formula applied to the population regarding their level of “guilt”.
Example, a child from two first generation Australians should have zero guilt.
Try white anchovies. Not as salty and delish. I put them on Niçoise salad.
He, he.
A FB friend posted this earlier …
Copping a fair bit of heat, but also some solid support.
I don’t expect the post to last until tea-time.
You should turn that into a song, Struth.
A successful 2nd generation Australian who doesn’t hate white males, the patriarchy and capitalism is just internalizing self hating racism and is a victim of the patriarchy.
To do otherwise is to reject love and accept hate.
BUT PLAY A GIG AND YOU”LL KILL MY NANNA!!!!!
Your story sounds Dickensian. The Circumlocution Office, Bruce?
Racist.
Go back home tomorrow.
Great title!
If you’re not Rodney Rude or Bill O Chee struth, you can go root your boot in the back of your ute, you old coot.
Sounds a bit grunge or death metal. You could do an awesome film clip to it too. Lots of bullets and maybe an atom bomb.
Ricky Slater wasn’t a sexual predator, he just wanted a family.
Tweedledum declares himself winner, takes his battle honours ie runs around brandishing his beloved rattle.
Once you go black anchovies, you never go back.
How about this for a formula:
The whole fucking nation should have zero guilt. The lives of Aborigines improved exponentially after the arrival of the first fleet.
Qualifier: Any harm they do to themselves in the 21st century has nothing whatsoever to do with their fellow Australians.

Well done, Nick!
Dealing with all those Federal departments who do the same thing took my appetite away, so I couldn’t face lunch.
No. I’ve seen what low sodium can do to older people. It’s not something you want to have happen. I really really emphasize that. Check blood sodium and make sure it is not too low because low sodium can be terrible. The sodium mafia have likely caused a great deal of unreported misery, it was only by chance I learned about this danger.

I was listening to a Michael Malice podcast from a couple of years ago this morning.
He was saying that Black Lives Matter was a product from an Internet Research Agency.
These’s IRA’s have been funded by intelligence agencies all around the world.
Social media has allowed these things to go viral.
It’s all about destabilising populations.
Tim seems fixated on worrying about what foreigners think about our honours system.
The case for remaking our honours system – with the help of our Indigenous traditions
Australia’s national honours and awards system is a lost opportunity to incorporate Indigenous traditions into our shared culture, while building their recognition internationally.
Our honours system doesn’t carry the same weight. But it could, and it’s our failure of imagination that is holding us back. With hundreds of Aboriginal languages, there are boundless possibilities that could be adopted as part of our continuing journey to elevate respect for Australia’s Indigenous heritage.
Of course, any such proposal would need to respect Indigenous communities and be advanced through consultation. But it’s an opportunity presently missed.
As but one of many potential examples, words such as “Ngurrakartu”, which means “custodian” among the Pintupi people around Western Australia, could be used to signify the standing and voluntary contribution of individuals who’ve taken personal responsibility for our country and its people.
Arguably Indigenous attitudes to non-hierarchical and shared responsibility better reflects what we are seeking to recognise through our honours system – those who through their contribution to the nation have helped build it and its people.
Domestically it would refresh the honours system and integrate our past with our present, so we can move forward together as one country. Internationally it would elevate citizens with titles that respect our past and improve global awareness of Australia as a culturally confident nation.
It would also help redress the legacies of European settlement that led to the unfortunate loss of Indigenous languages.
Around this time of year I always re-read a few First Fleet journals and commentary. I look out and imagine Governor Philip coming into the heads and down to Sydney Cove to have a dekko, then bring the rest up from Botany Bay to enter Sydney Harbour on the 26th January. This is one of the most iconic tales of all time, and we should celebrate it with pride, for it was successful, wildly so after a rocky start.
A similar settlement expedition in the Straits of Magellan in the sixteenth century ended in a total disaster, with settler families dying of starvation on a cold bleak point of land where overlooking it from a tour taken from our cruise I could almost feel their misery and desperation in those cold latitudes.
Sydney delivered its usual late January thunderstorms but in general the settlers (not invaders?) found the weather clement. Yes, their arrival did signal the conclusion to the isolation from the rest of humanity of the people of Terra Australis, but these people did survive as times changed into the modern era, unlike nearly all other indigenous populations who were found in previously isolated areas. Being found late in history by a people who held ‘Enlightenment’ views about human equality was almost lucky, if viewed in that perspective.
The colonisers at that time were far more cruel to their own kind, deemed convicts, than to any local aboriginal peoples, whom they tried to help and understand.
Yes because running naked through the scrub was such a great way to live.

I hadn’t really followed the air war in Vietman but Linebacker 2 looks like being an appalling stuff up from the SAC planning side. I mean, why have the bombers exfiltrate over a dense Air Defence Zone when the mission didn’t include the very munition that it was supposed to encounter?

I highly doubt anyone really knows in great detail what Aborigines did or did not do.
We know about the Egyptians to the dynasties preceding unification. 4500 years ago. We know biographies of thousands of them, not just Kings.
I thought it would be interesting to study artefacts such as trees and shellfish rwmains to map out ancient trade routes.
On the other hand, Gammage believes in three falsehoods: a common Aboriginal culture, nation and advanced no till, wild permaculture.

Can, by absence. The Egyptians had forged copper tools about 6,000 years ago in Naqada I. The cultures in Europe had quite elegant flint tools around 30,000 years ago. We have found examples of all those tools. But native copper and flint don’t much occur in Australia, and the aboriginal people didn’t show a great deal of advancement from Middle Paleolithic technology. No flint, no obsidian, no decently domesticable species. I wish it were otherwise, but Australia just never had any really useful resources except the megafauna. Once they were all eaten it became a hard unhelpful land.

No one else has found the Imperial Aboriginal Hamburger Plantation which was assumed to have been destroyed by marauding White C… settlers in 1750.
It appears he may have found the remnant growing wild.
Meanwhile, the Aboriginal Legal Service is pursuing claims against Mr Weber for destruction of a much loved Aboriginal artifact, the aforesaid Hamburger Tree, which Mr Weber destroyed by picking the fruit which only appears every 100 years.

Having your legs broken and being left behind to die when the tribe moved on, as punishment for breaching tribal law, was such a great way to live.
Bruce, because I want to keep my darling Hairy alive, I read up on most of the epidemiological studies around cardiac conditions and nutrition. It is a largely unrewarding enterprise, as Hairy’s cardiologist is inclined to agree, for the studies suit the fancies of various medical eras and tend to either cancel each other out, or to have been proven quite dangerous. I think it was an extreme Pritikin diet that keeled my ex-father-in-law over in the 70’s. I read of the de-demonisation of salt and the de-demonisation of eggs with some glee. Also, the food pyramid should likely be turned upside down for better health and less diabetes, but you’ll do OK anyway even if you don’t up the meat and lower the carbs. We’re not all paleolithic males.
A varied diet and good genes is the best you can do, I think, and keeping the frame mobile. Sunlight is helpful. A multi-vite, Vit D3, D2, Zinc and Vit C might assist immune function in times of Covid. Or not.

Lizzie – Re the sodium issue, one of the problems with old age is you need less food. You therefore can be prone to having imbalances just because you are taking in fewer minerals because you are taking in less to eat. Then add the incessant salt-is-bad stuff and you can find yourself in problems without knowing it.
Who thinks to get blood sodiums? Yet it’s one of the elements most easily lost. So get blood sodium and make sure it’s not too low. Measurement beats the common reflexive sodium-is-bad cant. Very low is very bad.

Here’s the relevant bit:
Mr Weber had been lost since his car got bogged on farm road off Mudlo Road on January 6, shortly after he left the Kilkivan Hotel.
He was on his way to Caboolture.
The way to Caboolture from Kilkivan isn’t up a farm road off Mudlo Rd..
That’s what 40 odd years of being a pisspot does to your brain, he didn’t know where he was or where he was going. Sounds like the dam was fresh from rain, no Cane Toads around there, he was carrying a lot of condition from his All Carb diet, and after 3 weeks taking it easy under a tree was probably healthier than your average Stockbroker.
“Scott Morrison has consulted former prime ministers John Howard and Kevin Rudd on Australia’s strained relationship with China.”

Why would the PM consult a first-class dickhead like Rudd on anything?
What has gone wrong with the Liberals in this country?
I am not in favour of a boomerang and nulla-nulla honours system.
It sounds rather like something Bruce Pascoe would support. Ersatz and condescending.
Not common but still not used or traded where it was common.
Flint occurs in the Gambier Limestone as nodular masses at shallow depth. Erosion of the limestone by the sea along a 30 km stretch of cost from Port MacDonnell then NW to Carpenter Rocks has concentrated extensive flint deposits along the beaches. A small industry supplying limited Australian demand operated between the 1880s and 1985.

That’s good advice, Bruce. I’m not worried about Hairy there though. A tin of anchovies a week at least, plus everything else salty he likes to eat, and the salt grinder on the table, ignored by him but used by me
accidently’ on his food (sorry, here’s the pepper one), and me always winning the salt in the boiling vegies battle by force of argument – you can’t seriously say you can eat even potatoes without salt? Anyway, it all gets washed away when you drain the vegies. Those two arguments may seem contradictory to a subtle logician like my husband number one, but when he’s hungry Hairy is not particularly subtle; he just lets me be as I grab the Saxa Iodised and tip away.

I was also on a panel for a major residential development along with a sizeable group from the progressive chattering class (and a fairly well-to-do suburb). They were nearly climbing up the walls asking for indigenous art and inclusion in designs etc in recognition of former “sins.”
I (sincerely) said if they wanted real inclusion, some of the development(s) should be earmarked for affordable housing options for them for those currently dwelling in the outer burbs.
Silence ensued and I realised the career limiting move I had made.

That’s much better than what passes for art in other cultures these days. A housing block with indigenous art pieces and installations would be rather nice. Otherwise you may as well just move the porcelain toilets into the foyer and stick urinals along the corridor walls .

Stop murdering food

get rid of the iodized
buy some sea salt, flossy salt, or kosher salt for boiling vege
salty like the sea … like a table spoon per litre (depends which salt)
vege CANNOT be cooked without salt. It will be tasteless mush
same with pasta
buy some Maldon salt (or the flaky kosher salt) for adding to food after cooking
other sources of salt …
anchovy (Nocchiero brand)
olives
feta and other cheeses
pickle
miso
etc
Learn to cook, bro.

Having cancer does indeed induce all kinds of irrational behaviour and magical thinking, just look at Steve Jobs. He thought that living on carrot juice instead of having conventional treatment would save him.
When I bought this house, the woman who sold it to me was being treated for cancer. I found out after moving in that she must have decided that insecticides might be fatal to her. I spent the first twelve months here with spray cans in every room, as the multitude of creepy crawlies whose eggs were lurking in corners and under carpets hatched out. Spiders, moths, beetles, silverfish – all kinds of things. The house was spotlessly clean when I moved in, but as I discovered, there are a multitude of places where eggs can be hiding.
It took a full year’s cycle of bug reproduction for me to get rid of them all, but good old Mortein products did the trick in the end.
As I said, the only explanation I can think of is that she refused to use insecticides because of her cancer. The house was very clean when I viewed it and had just been renovated, so she must have allowed the bug build up quite knowingly.
In fairness, I suppose they were never Lieboral votes anyway. Perhaps they are learning.

Oh, and thanks for asking, re the friends who sacked me for political reasons after 40 years of harmony, no, they haven’t relented. The most recent one, which happened late last year, particularly hurt because she had never been very interested in politics before. But at the beginning of last year one of her daughters, a red hot leftie, moved back to town after living interstate and overseas for a long time, and she seems to have ‘radicalised’ her mother into thinking that conservatives are just plain bad people.
I have known this lass for all of her life, BTW. At some level she must realise that it’s nonsense.
There really is no way of getting through that mindset from the outside, especially when you have been excommunicated.
Sad, but such is life. A lot of people have been stabbed in the back for political reasons over the last couple of years, and mine is by no means the worst example – look at the guy in the US whose kid dobbed him in to The Authorities. Now, that’s savage.

Also from WA:
A Labor senator has come under fire after she labelled Australia Day a celebration of “white supremacy”.
Sue Lines, a senator for Western Australia who is also the deputy president of the senate, wrote on her Facebook page that it was time to change the date of Australia Day.
“Australia Day celebrates white supremacy and the legacy of colonisation that is directly linked to the various ways we continue to fail First Nations people,” she wrote.
“It’s wrapped up in modern racist policies like the cashless debit card, with deaths in custody and our failure to close the gap.
She said the current date commemorated the arrival of Arthur Phillips in Sydney in 1788, which began “a destructive era of colonisation, genocide and dispossession”.
“It is time to end the formal celebration of Australia Day on the 26th of January,” she wrote.
“This isn’t about guilt or shame, it is about being honest about our past and respecting our First nations people.”
Senator Lines also paid for the comments to be promoted on the Facebook platform.
The comments and their promotion were seized upon by WA opposition leader Zak Kirkup, who described the post as “shameful and wholly unacceptable”.
“That statement by one of the most senior Labor politicians here in Western Australia is divisive,” he said.
“We’ve seen the continued polarisation of politics globally, and the language used here by Labor to divide Australians among themselves fails to deal with the actual issues that confront Aboriginal people in Western Australia.”
Mr Kirkup, whose paternal grandfather was Aboriginal, does not want the date of Australia Day to change and said the issue of the date had never been raised with him in his meetings with Indigenous communities around WA.
“Whether I’m up in Kununurra or in Geraldton or in Aboriginal communities in the Goldfields, not a single person there talks to me about changing the date,” he said.
“They want to make sure they have a government that addresses the challenges of the future. To end the cycle of violence and abuse and the failure to address the issues of poverty.”
Ms Lines’ state Labor colleague, WA treasurer and Aboriginal affairs minister Ben Wyatt, described the senator’s comments as “silly”.
“That sort of rhetoric doesn’t help the debate because a lot of really good decent Australians who celebrate Australia Day will be quite offended by that comment,” he said.
Mr Wyatt, who is Indigenous, has long said that he believes the date will eventually change but only when there is a push from the Commonwealth government and widespread community support for the move.
“The average Australian in my view celebrates Australia Day because of all the positive things we’ve become as a nation perhaps without thinking where the date comes from, that is the settlement of the NSW colony,” he said.
He said it was not a topic that was “high on the agenda” in the conversations he has with Aboriginal people in WA.

‘A pregnant Ballarat woman arrested in her home over allegedly organising an anti-lockdown protest is stressed by court proceedings and wants to “enjoy” her pregnancy, a court has heard.
‘Zoe Buhler, 28, appeared via video link in Ballarat Magistrates’ Court on Monday, where magistrate Letizia Torres agreed to give her an earlier date in late February while the prosecution consider the defence’s proposal for a diversion, which would allow the defendant to avoid a criminal record.’
Adjourned to 25 February, with the court already indicating they will consider diversion. Which amounts to zero, and is something the jacks could have done in the first place. Or, the jacks could not have turned up at all.
I still reckon the Ballarat jacks walked themselves into a trap, albeit one set by a clueless suburban bogan chick. This will be a millstone around their necks for eternity.
