Remember last year, when the bigmouth imbecile was predicting a stock-market crash sometime in the latter third of the year? I forget exactly which month and date. I think he was also predicting the actual date it would crash. He was making the prediction in the first half of the year. From almost the point he was predicting a crash, the market took off turning into a serious bull market.
Hell for him is he knowing the bulk of people know he’s an irrelevant moron.
hzhousewife,
Agree.
You just know they’ll go nuts, there’s probably a cohort of people relishing the prospect to “do their thing”.

Meanwhile in Sydney the NSW Ordnungspolizei seem to have turned off their transponders but the location of protests is being given away by VH-TCN, which I guess given the callsign matches the broadcast licence is the Channel 9 helicopter. Looks like a demonstration has popped up at Rookwood Cemetery.

Remember last year, when the bigmouth imbecile was predicting a stock-market crash sometime in the latter third of the year?
In Australia, there are some guys who use astrology (yes astrology) to predict market moves.
They cover up the astrology shit saying they are technical traders.
Last time I looked they had about 500mill FUM.
I shit you not.
I imagine it would be like Scientology.
Yeah, we’re technical traders that one day morphs into the equivalent of, let me tell you about Xenu.
Are you kidding me?
LOL bushie, me too !
I’m watching Topher Field and have poured a wine spritzer EARLY cos it’s the weekend and wtf.
All the Melb protested should all just sit down and have a picnic.
I used to work with a bloke who was right into chartist trading.
Not quite astrology, but has elements of black magic about it.
Jeez lord, I fucking hate Vicpol. It’s a despicable organization. It’s really become the police arm of the Liars Party.
With red cordial in wine glasses.
There is something to trend following and momentum, which means one uses charts. I pay about US$500bucks a year for a algo that is quite decent in predicting short term high and lows in stocks. It’s primarily based on mean reversion.
For trading the Aussie dollar against the US, I use the simple 65 hour moving average on a hourly chart. Works okay, but it’s not the only thing I use.
All calm at the Perth Rally.
Melbourne truely sux. Sky reporters talking up protest being a potential super spreader event. Well yeah if you corral people and push them into confined spaces.
A technical overlay is critical in my opinion.
Part of the road map.
I don’t think technical trading is astrology.
The guys I referred to absolutely use astrology.
Total whack jobs.
Is there even a shred of evidence to show that people outside, in a windy environment like today in melbourne could actually pass on/ get the bug?
And they have $A500 million under management. Incredible.
Prediction: The MSM coverage of the protest will feature snaps of the one or two hot heads who mixed it up with the cops.
No kidding, is there any scientific evidence that someone has actually caught the bug in the outside air with windy conditions?
2: vote the sitting member last
Nah, this one is still good.
Fingers and toes crossed that the cockups are successfully rectified ASAP.

Combine that with a nation that almost entirely locked down… We’re fucked.

Again, thanks JMH & areff for the Topher links.
I’d love to see other Aussies on the ground reporting what’s actually happening, but again, I have, “no internet”, when I go looking for it, which sadly tells me a lot about many.
BTW, for those who missed it; not only were the numbers impressive (despite the biggest Police crack down against Aussies), but the whole marching through residential areas where the still too timid to, ‘Stand up to Dan’, live, could see they are not alone and that their fellow countrymen taking personal risks for all, were not ratbags & low lives.
I hope that someone who can gather a good lot of live feeds can do a dedicated post to today’s peaceful marches for freedom in Melbourne. What I saw was very heartening.
Yes, but it’s also a good thing, because a lot of people who weren’t marching did see the marchers from the comfortable & not too shabby residences they marched past and could see good people doing a good thing and no doubt some even spotting the trouble makers seeded amongst them to start shit and try to sell that now, very old story of ‘the protesters’ being ‘the baddies’.
Remember how Soviet Approved artists (who even then understood the Left can’t meme), would work mockery of Communism into their State Paid For art, that the sane people fully understood, giving them the morale boost down trodden people need to hang in there that bit longer?

Wow. Daily Mail has footage of protesters in what looks like a wedge formation ramming the cop lines and breaking through. All liberally OC sprayed but it didn’t seem to stop them. Victorians look like they have had enough and I’d guess the protesters have been getting training. Wonder if like the BLM riots they are now co-ordinating their actions. Definite upping the ante anyway, this is not going to end well…
Watching Topher Field’s coverage of the Freedom March in Melbourne, I agree with him that the agitators were Dan Andrews’ Black Shirts. The only ‘violent’ confrontation from Freedom marchers seemed to be when one of the large barricades was stormed and pepper spray deployed. There may have been other scuffles but as Topher indicated, Victorians are now at their wit’s end – and rightfully so.
Topher estimated the Melbourne crowd he was with to be around 4,000 to 5,000, which was expected to be down on previous rally numbers because of the Black Shirts humongous deployment today and public transport into the city locked down. Apparently, Vic-stasi managed to split the crowd earlier and we don’t know what that crowd weighed in at.
I think the Andrews Goon Squads may have learnt something from today’s events – but I am not over-optimistic.
I forgot to add the breach of the barricade was to avoid marchers being kettled.
Takes a bit to get West Australians out of their lounge rooms.
Wanted to look at Trophers footage but FB is now locking us with no FB accounts out. I also notice Twitter is now prompting log ins when clicking on an individual tweet as well. Yeah, na not supplying details…

Rockdoctor, you can see Topher’s coverage on Quadrant Online’s homepage. areff has kindly uploaded the video there.
JMH, no issues with what happened, was only a matter of time that people stopped accepting violent arrest and having nothing to lose are making a break for it. Looked very organised from the 30 second grab I saw and some Vic Pol officers came off second best too.
JMH
Ta, heading there now.
At the Melbourne March the pigs were trying to box us in from the front and sides, in between side streets.
This a dangerous strategy as it’s in this scenario that stampedes and crushes occur.
It was a clear intimidatory strategy, especially since there was plenty of open street available for the marchers to walk until they have up and it petered out.
The pigs were aiming for a confrontation, no doubt.

Interesting, given that the WA state Liberal party is on life support and is reduced to…how many MPs? Is it one, two or three MPs? Anyway, you’d reckon this would give the dying Liberal party a perfect opportunity to show some spine, make a stand, formulate some policies and actually oppose the dictates of the maniac clown currently ruling WA. But no, you always rely on the Liberals to be timid. That they do well.

How many “cases” were linked to the last protest? I don’t recall any hysterical media coverage of any.
I don’t know if that was the same bit I saw of Topher Field’s coverage but after they foolishly went down a ‘canyon’ (wouldn’t have happened with people who still watched Westerns), some hot heads tried to start bluing with police who blocked them.
The marchers then turned around and went back to the entrance of the ‘canyon’, then after a short, quiet lull, pushed through.
Some got arrested by police but most made it out.
Some wanted to go back for the arrested but cool heads prevailed.
No point your countrymen sacrificing themselves for your freedom, only to have you give it up without need.

“In effect, this bill would allow spy agencies to modify, add, copy or delete your data with a data disruption warrant; collect intelligence on your online activities with a network activity warrant; [and] take over your social media and other online accounts and profile with an account takeover warrant.”
“What’s worse, the data disruption and network activity warrants could be issued by a member of the Administrative Appeals Tribunal – really?” she said.
“It is outrageous that these warrants won’t come from a judge of a superior court that is appointed on their personal capacity.”

Shit testing has found traces of Covid in Griffiths’ “wastewater”.
This is why the good burghers of Panzerville have taken to shitting behind the Police Station.
They can’t test what they don’t got
According to the ABC, Lismore has been locked down again for one(?) case. Interesting that up there a large percentage of the residences have septic tanks (40% I think the report said). This means that the sewerage testing is not as robust as the authorities would prefer to determine whether the chunk virus is present.
With the lack of sewerage testing, how to deduce whether there’s an outbreak there? You’d think that if this was a really serious illness for most of the population there would be tens if not hundreds of cases visiting the quack, calling ambulances or turning up at the local hospital. But no reports of any of that happening.

I had something like once where I apparently accidently activated the alpha numeric function on my main keyboard – letters became numbers. I didn’t even know it existed. Anyway, I have always found typing your question into GoogleSatan quite good – cyberspace is full of nerds just dying show their chops and fix your problem.
I have a permanent problem on my keyboard where @ is on the double quote key and vice versa. I suppose it is fixable somehow, but quickly adapted to it.
Shatterz, your story about your youth reminded me of one of my best friends when I was in my late teens/early 20s. He was bright, well liked, good education bla bla but seemed determined to drink himself to death. We lived in the same share house for a while, and every morning around nine he would give me a lift to the ANU and then adjourn to the Union Bar. He consumed an orange juice and read the paper while waiting for it to open at 10 am, when he started drinking beer and continued until the place closed at midnight. Partying on afterwards was common. He paid for his habit by selling weed.
This went on for about five years that I know of, then the aches and pains* tempted him into using smack as well, and he ended up in hospital with pancreatitis and liver disease and nearly died. He dried out after that but his health was wrecked and he died very young of liver cancer.
You had a narrow escape, and obviously have a good constitution! Not to mention a strong will to live, which I suspect is crucial.
Lots of people tried to ‘save’ my friend, but he didn’t want to be saved. I never did. He was loyal and a great pal to me, and I took him as he was.

This is the ultimate victory for a troll. The supreme reaction.
Position vacant.
The Andrews government is looking to hire a new border tsar on a salary of up to $360,000, as pressure increases for more than 5000 Victorians stranded in NSW to be allowed home.
Yep, smash the productive workers and their businesses and their tax paying ability, then reward the syncophants with tax hoovering positions funded by China.
Bastards.
His downfall will be long. Very long.
I want Andrews slowly squished into wet concrete by a steamroller, like Kevin Kline in A Fish Called Wanda.

Sandgropers getting into it now:
Perth crowd joins anti-lockdown, anti-vaccine mandate protests
By Cameron Myles
A big crowd has gathered in Perth’s Forrest Place, joining anti-lockdown protests across the country.
Bearing signs with slogans such as “Coercion is not consent”, the protesters railed against COVID-19 lockdowns in other states, the coronavirus vaccine, and vaccine mandates.
While Perth is not in lockdown and COVID-19 restrictions in Western Australia are minimal – aside from closed borders with several eastern states – the crowd voiced support for other protests around the country on Saturday, such as those in New South Wales and Victoria, which have seen clashes with police as officers attempt to stymie the gatherings.
Among the anti-vaccine talking points and numerous red ensign Australian flags waving in the chilly wind of an overcast day were conspiracy theory tropes urging people to do their own “research”, and signs pouring scorn on the mainstream media’s reporting of the coronavirus pandemic.
Support for political parties was also thin on the ground, save for a few signs championing Clive Palmer’s United Australia Party – whose MP Craig Kelly was recently chastised by the country’s medical regulator over his use of TGA extracts in unsolicited text messages – and there was the telltale orange of a One Nation backer among the crowd, accompanied by a large cutout of party leader Pauline Hanson.
The most vitriol, however, was reserved for vaccine mandates…

2021 has been eye opening.
I guess I’m one of the more “negative” and cynical bastards on here.
I never have held my fellows in any great esteem.
But who would have thought there were this many stooges and arse lickers in the general population?
After all, the culture up until now seemed to have discouraged such.
Thee aren’t any Hollywood blockbuster movies where the hero is some reptilian asshole dobbing his fellow citizens into the many versions of a dystopian totalitarian future writers have conceived.
Maybe the Hollywood script writers got it wrong all the way through. They should have rewritten Schindler’s List with Schindler as the villiain. Darth Vader was a hero. The lord of the Rings will need complete rewriting to make it work. All those sleazy media types in films like The Running Man need rehabilitation.
Wasn’t he?
Vader.
A prodigious talent.
Horribly burned in an industrial accident.
Subject to compulsory medical procedures.
Biggest comeback since Lazarus.
Learnt new skills.
Disowned and rejected by his own son, and then – when mortally wounded – killed the man who would have otherwise ended that same son’s life there and then.
Stand, Vader. Receive the ovation due you.

They’ve used similar slurs against Pauline for twenty-five years. It didn’t work and it won’t work with Kelly. You’d think they’d learn something but the MSM learn nothing.
Neighbour sometimes minds her brother’s dog. A pitbull-dobermann cross or something. Big serious dogflesh. His name is Vader. Most apt name for a formidable dog that I’ve ever come across.

Thanks Bern…I’m a huge fan of Jack Murphy……I also think he’s very attractive.
Yes. I turned the gormless Elliott off months ago and that “dingbat” Mitchell isn’t worth the bandwith. They were the only two I USED TO listen to.
I used to like Tom Eliot- unlike Mitchell he had some warmth and humour. Mitchell has all the appeal of a fart in a lift. Cold, supercilious, condescending. Hopefully 3AW will go the way of the Sydney Sun.
With the latest biden atrocities – 7 children among 10 dead due to afghan drone strike which was done hastily just to show biden was doing something, 10s of thousands of children unaccompanied crossing border heading towards sex exploitation – I am reappraising my view that biden and prominent members of his swamp should be hung and have been exploring more creative execution methods. My conclusion is that death by elephant should be applied. The elephant is a noble animal and lends virtue to the deed; elephants are also heavy and the symbol of the GOP which has been as light as a miniature rabbit in its dealings and should be motivated by the use of a real elephant.
Why, it’s almost as if they’ve been issued orders
Agree.

After Nein took over, Elliott suddenly became malleable clay. Once a good analyst of all things, his programme went to a sports infested shithole.

3AW is largely unlistenable and I have no doubt they get very specific direction from the high-ups at Nein.
I quite like the Mikados punishment…
Yes. Something lingering, with boiling oil in it, I fancy. Something of that sort. I think boiling oil occurs in it, but I’m not sure. I know it’s something humorous, but lingering, with either boiling oil or melted lead.

Possums can also cause some serious damage to your property by chewing on electrical wiring creating a fire hazard and an expensive problem to fix. Their fur could also be teeming with smaller pests such as ticks and fleas which they could introduce into your home. These smaller pests will cause trouble to both you and your pet.
