I’m the same KD…my father lives in Perth, he’s old and frail. WA is now a one party state governed by a mad clown so in order to visit….if that is ever possible again because WA is looking more like North Korea everyday where certain scum elites like Twiggy Forrest can fly in and out but ordinary people can’t….I needed to have the jab.
I make no apology for the decision. I don’t judge others and I don’t want others judging me.

How will Novavax fit into Australia’s COVID-19 vaccine plans?
15/10/2021
GPs will be involved in the rollout of Novavax if it is approved for use in Australia, the Federal Government has confirmed.
Well, he is now.
That’s it – I’ve now gone so nuts, it’s time to trade in the Strat for a middling quality lute.
Mine is “That sushi isn’t going to eat itself, pigs”.

Suddenly we see trends reversed after big gaps in data.
Data stacking TaliDan style.
Top reason, So you don’t get cramp reloading in Parliament house.
I agree with the slippery slope argument, and it started long ago.
When people are presented with an opportunity to stand up against tyranny and they shirk that patriotic duty we all live with the outcomes.
And that is exactly what happened in Canberra on a winters day ten years ago.
A man leading a convoy of protest had an opportunity to be a beacon of hope for this country but, confronted by Federal Police waving nothing more than black broomsticks, he turned and fled.
Our current malaise can be traced back to that seminal moment in Australian history.
If only I could lay my hands on that fucking turncoat …
“The trick is to stop giving a damn what they think.”
I don’t give a damn what others think.
…and I’m against getting vigorously rooted up the back passage by giraffes.

Not giving a damn is something most of us have to cultivate.
As Rabz said.

Once learned it allows you to park your 20yo RAV4 next to your mates C63 AMG and walk in and tell him why he’s wrong.
Yes.
There are concentric circles of “others”.
Significant others on the inner ring. (Direct family).
Extended family and friends occupy various rings slightly further out. (Don’t make me tell them where they sit relative to my dog).
Then comes acquaintances in local community.

Sports sh**ting licence. Is this the best way to get a high powered item?
Yes, recommend Remington 7615 Police in .223, and for the budget conscious Adler B220 shotgun. Do not buy any magazine fed shotgun unless it is a high end one.
I think that is what I just said.
Not caring about what others think has many historical precedents.
Nice to see that one has been documented so artistically.

Projecting sin onto others is not what conversion is
By Philippa Martyr -October 16, 2021
… I’ve just finished reading how one Catholic educator said that a Church called to conversion should focus on changes in governance, formation, inclusion of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people; include more women in leadership and promote an integral ecology of life.
I was left with the impression that for this speaker, personal conversion involved either joining a committee, or creating a compost heap at home. Possibly both.
…
… decades of poor catechesis have left many Australian Catholics – including very smart and educated ones – with a Jesus who looks exactly like #ThingsJesusNeverSaid. (Try googling that, and you’ll see what I mean).
So we’re now in a Church where we are called to ‘repent’ of things we didn’t do personally – like colonialism and industrial pollution.
Got to have someone to blame for the vaxxed arrivals spreading covid.
Indeed it does.
Living in Melbournistan, I’m feeling like that person.
Roger,
I found a pic of my husband’s Les Paul that he traded in to Wilsons Music Store for a George Golla Starline Maton.
Don Andrews then purchased it from Wilsons.
Philippa has recognised a great failing in how many view faith. So did Lewis:
The temptation to add something or other is always there.
Decided that I’m going to Centrelink on Monday, have never had any dealings with them before, bottom line is I want my $750 a week off these arseholes for preventing me from working.
Please don’t. You are not alone. You are a woman if great resolve and dignity. You will decide and you alone.
You have my sincere admiration, along with all the others who have decided to resist and wait it out.
Just got a text from a mate in the UK. He and his wife both down with Covid. Both double vacxxed. Sounds like is completely endemic over there regardless of whatever the vaccine rate is. Which was all but inevitable anyway if you were to ask me 18 months ago. Australia is not quite there yet.
That is called Righteous Centrelinking, rickw.

What Dr Martyr is saying, in short, is that the modernist tendency is to create a Jesus more fitting to current societal wants because the truth Jesus speaks is just too hard in our modernist age. So they create their own god in to their likeness.

“I Tried To Warn You” – Elon Musk LAST WARNING (2021)
Depends where you are. In WA it IS possible (just, barely, allegedly) to get a self-loader if you can convince the boys in blue that (a) you have a NEED for it, and (b) you have a reason; e.g. a physical disability that precludes manual operation. As for power, here you MIGHT get approval for a .338, but that’s about it; and even that’s dodgy AF. Were it I, I’d have a .308/7.62 for preference. Accurate enough to hit an A2-sized target out to 900 yards, the ammo is as common as muck and there is a v-a-s-t range of projectiles of varying weights and formats for reloading. And speaking of reloading, a tin of 2208 or 2206H goes a lot further with your .308 than refuelling the latest bigboremagnumthumper500.
Best of luck to you rick. And no matter what anyone anywhere says; there is no shame at all in choosing to (legally) look after one’s own family. That is a concrete principle too.
Sinc’s used to feature an archetypal one.
Everyone at one point will get it, vaxxed or not. It would be interesting to hear how they get on Bear and what cohort they belong to. Hopefully a mild dose.

Second shop (of two) I’ve been to this week that hasn’t given a rodent’s about this petty fascist idiocy. We’re not big on obeying stupid rules in my beloved LGA of Obsession.

While theoretically dedicated to charity, the president of the Ford Foundation, Darren Walker, has been on the board of some of America’s largest and wealthiest corporations, and collects well over $1 million a year in various forms of compensation. Meanwhile, the foundation he runs possesses $16 billion of assets. Left-wing activism pays very well, it turns out, so long as it’s packaged as charity.
The Ford Foundation is hardly alone. It is merely one fish in an ocean of endowments and foundations dedicated to left-wing causes. Others include the Gates Foundation, the Macarthur Foundation and the Harvard university endowment. Taken together, they represent well over $1 trillion in wealth, and that wealth is deployed in almost exclusively partisan ways..
…..
It is against this backdrop that I proposed we tax the assets of these foundations, and shrink their size over time. Most fundamentally, it’s the fair thing to do. It’s preposterous that my middle-class aunt pays a higher tax rate than the $41 billion Harvard endowment. But the power of these institutions also creates a massive left-wing bias at the heart of our society. The Left has stashed a trillion-dollar war chest and protected it from ever paying a nickel in tax. There is no comparable right-wing institution, no similar preference created for conservatives.
Who says the cat isnt ahead of the curve.
Dover, I have a granny flat in what used to be the downstairs garage.
The Paywallian’s Jacqueline Magnay on the arrest of a 25-year-old Somali over the stabbing murder of 69-year-old British MP Sir David Amess:
Journalists are among the stupidest people ever born. Magnay hasn’t even reported that the murder investigation is being led by anti-terrorism police.
Jackie Magnay used to be a good sports writer. She’s also a chump who doesn’t understand the real world, which is why the Paywallian’s editorial management are paying her good money to disinform the paper’s audience.
That’s how I read it, rosie.
It’s up to places of business whether or not they enforce it. December will be very interesting at the shops.
I have already decided not to shop for Christmas. My vaxx-mad family will receive stuff from my workroom and kitchen – let’s go back to simpler days, like those German parents and their Greta disciple.

I’ve asked a couple of trustworthy people on your behalf Gab.
Mole: Go to the charities commission site and search on ‘climate’. You’ll find page after page of activist organisations pretending to be charities. And when you check their financials, wow! The Shut the Gate mob, for instance, have a $2 million fighting fund, which is no doubt paying for the current radio ad blitz decrying fracking.
Looking sharp, Rabz! 😀
One has suggested that you contact Father T if you haven’t already, as he might have a list of people who can help.

Ah, a lone wolf. Possibly radicalised while searching for a place where he was accepted in wretched fascist bigoted racist Britain.
A typical example – the story in The Oz does mention the assailant was Somalian, but is not allowing comments on the story.
A diversion from anti-Islamic feeling is also offered:
It is unclear why Sir David was attacked. He has been an opponent to LGBT rights and same sex marriage and was also fiercely opposed to fox-hunting. He had supported Brexit.
The Oz is implying the victim’s history caused the murder.
Bastards.

While JC has a point about those who start with nothing and build a business empire (much as I loathe the Gates and Zuckers of this world), there is absolutely no case for tax exemptions for multi-generational “foundations” and “charities”.

If you arrested every Mo fan in London you’d be there longer than the Romans. Tony Blair’s work is nearly done.
We note the submission from Rosie.
But yes, as far as I’m aware you have to have a covid test to go over a state border, which in itself should be opposed.
But I note, that’s not even considered, as so too will the jab, it’ll be just part of the life of slaves, and the process and the extra things you will have to do further on.
Truckies have to be jabbed to cross the border so do you think others can just waltz in?
Which is how this all progresses since it was two weeks to flatten the curve, which should have had murderous crowds falling upon parliament house that very day.
As if getting the jab, (which will of course bring in the passport that all the sneering fuckheads here said was conspiracy theory) will help you see your elderly relatives or even cross state borders in the future…..but it will help tyrannize them.
Can you get into WA from NSW fully jabbed?
There has to be sacrifice now, to stand our ground now, to not make it worse for our loved ones.
Next, because of mass submission comes compulsory jabs and then watch the elderly croak it.
This is killing people, and getting a jab to visit your aged parents won’t do them or everybody else,s aged parents any good in the long run.
So I put it back on Knuckles.
And all of this is a morals/ responsibility question that we all have to consider.
Is it ok that you all submitted making the next step of compulsory vaccinations to enter food shops etc, easier, thereby killing my and other’s old parents with the death jab?
Right back at the start when it would have been easier to stop this people here know I tried to organise things , not only did I get no takers, I was abused for doing so.
So now look at the moral dilemma you’ve got yourself in.
But that’s ok, abuse me for being a hick, as you perceive me.
Shoot the bastard who is holding the mirror up.
But I’m just a realist.
You’ve made it so much worse for your families and mine and everyone else’s.

Yes.
But with no Speer, there would have been no Jodl.
They’re all monsters but it’s a intellectually stimulating exercise.
LIBERTY QUOTE
The loss of the religious understanding of the human condition—that Man is a fallen creature for whom virtue is necessary but never fully attainable—is a loss, not a gain, in true sophistication. The secular substitute—the belief in the perfection of life on earth by the endless extension of a choice of pleasures—is not merely callow by comparison but much less realistic in its understanding of human nature.
— Theodore Dalrymple
thanks!
If you want something with a bit of historical flair, look at the No.4 Mk1:
The action is highly reliable, far exceeds that of most modern hunting rifles.
The .303 round is potent and old stock is available with all sorts of useful projectiles.
The sights are excellent, real battle sights, fast target acquisition plus accurate.
No.1 Mk.III in my opinion is no where near as good because of the sights. Accurate for target shooting but to post is to fine for real world use.
But whatever, he had it coming.
Isl*ists have a problem with this.
Whoops, sorry Ignore, misread – must have coffee.
What is not being said? Did he support the lockdowns and jabs? Was the attacker affected by the lockdowns, jabs etc?
Are there any editors at the Oz?
Why a somali would be hot for those causes should seem somewhat odd. But then, Magnay is a j’ismist, so it’s a given she’s as thick as a brick.
“trendy Sydney inner west (Is Tempe in Sydney’s inner west”
Yes.
Shirley not!! isn’t Tempe next door to the airport & near Rockdale?
I don’t know why Islamicists are not angrier toward the media.
They can hardly make their cause plainer. They go into church’s to kill people, they slit people’s throats like ISIS, they scream out “Allahu Akhbar!” at the top of their lungs, they pose in front of those flags with the white writing than dribbles down the black fabric like some septic discharge, and still the MSM won’t report why they do these terrible things.
Indeed shatterzzz – Tempe is where would be inner west dwellers go to slum it. It’s right under the flight path as well, so they get to enjoy being soaked with avgas and deafened by all that lovely jet noise.
…and still the MSM won’t report why they do these terrible things.
They don’t get no RESPECT!

Covering stories – with a pillow, until they expire. Post-modern j’ismism 101.

Absolutely, the old berdan/mercury primer/cordite propellant stuff lasts forever. I have plenty of WWII stuff that works fine. But that is not true of all military ammo, Vietnam era 5.56 is shit and so is WWII Italian ammo.

Early this morning Picked up in the Oz the comment about the Conservative MP stabbed to death as reference to his QWERTY and anti SSM voting. Couldn’t believe the shithole journalism to automatically link that as cover for potentially why he was stabbed to death.
Same journo within the article steered well clear of the gaping mineshaft of it being attached to the Religion of Peace. HTF does this get published in a paper like the Oz? Oh wait I think I know the answer. He’s white male conservative and Christian. Fair game for any attack even though he was slaughtered in a peaceful environment.

The young couple directly behind me stepped in to order. I went back and positioned myself in the bloke’s peripheral vision, to let him know that I hadn’t left the cafe and was next in line. Nope. Bloke looked at me and continued ordering. I waited for them to finish, made my order, and as I walked past them told the bloke he needed to have some manners and respect for others. ‘Oh, but I was talking to me mate, I didn’t see ya, what? What?’ I told him that I was in his direct view as I stood to open the door open for the other customer, and then returned. More excuses. Girlfriend chimes in. Blah, Blah. ‘You just need some manners,’ says Muddy. Both start being smartarses. Muddy starts to swear (a sign he’s losing control). Stranger steps in and says stop swearing in front of my kid. Fair enough. Muddy apologises to strange bloke. Young couple continues. Young smartarse see copper walking up to get his lunch and says “This bloke is harassing us because I wouldn’t open the door.” ‘Ummm, no,’ thinks Muddy. Copper looks at Muddy and says “Walk away, mate.” Smartarse does the echo, now he has a protector: “Yeah, just walk away. Walk away mate.” Muddy looks at copper. Muddy is not happen and feels himself getting over-excited (it has been a challenging few weeks). Looks at smartarse who repeats “Just walk away, mate.” Muddy looks back at copper. Copper repeats instruction. O.K., decision time. Is it worth being arrested for, what, public disorder? Not really. Feckit. My ego wants to slash and burn, but no damage has been done to me, so I (very) reluctantly walk away. Young smartarse continues “Walk away, mate. Walk away. He and his girlfriend telling bystanders of their innocence. Breathe, Muddy. Breathe. Smart decision, but my ego is not happy. Not at all happy.
Like sands through the hourglass of time…
I realise this is a small point but it should not go unnoticed: the London stabbing took place on a Friday.
Just like the knifing of Sisto Malaspina in Melbourne. And on and on.
So, in the a.m., get up, go to the mosque, listen to a sermon about bow and arrow man in Norway doing good deeds for Allah and set off in righteous zeal . Wander past a church and notice the gathering inside. Assume it’s Christian dogs worshiping their false deity. Head inside and the man seated at the table and receiving all the attention is obviously the Christian imam so make him your target.
I’m sure a registered training organization owned by the spouse of one of our dear leaders will leap to your aid.
Wait a week or two.
Maybe retirement is overrated….
Learn to swear in a foreign language. Calling someone a “motherfvcker”, in Russian, can your tension remarkably.
Have I been missing something, or is there a very big dog not barking at night in Victoria’s covid stats?
Where are the reports that large numbers of the cases were spread by protests?
If there are no such reports, presumably the good news is that protests aren’t really that dangerous and should be permitted. I mean surely Maximum Leader is anxious to restore fundamental human rights and democratic freedoms as soon as possible?
the only thing I can see is a slowly increasing number of fully VXd people going into hospital
I have the Finnish phonetics for “fsck off you fat female genitalia” written down somewhere.
The only catch is that I do not entirely trust the Finn who provided the words.
I prefer Klingon in such situations.

A friend who was marrying a Basque girl wanted to know some polite phrases for when he met the family.
Foolishly he didn’t ask her, but instead asked some of her friends….
Has everybody here has had their nose hair double vvaxed?
Have you got a little list, Muddy? 😉

Dickless uptickers is the proper term. Make it a meme. It is gender neutral. 🙂
One anti-vaxxer chasing me for two days with a total strawman, and the rest disallowing that I put considerable time into investigating and commenting on a piece of epidemiology that had gone seriously wrong in its reporting, turns me into some type of feminist thinker? How many of the dickless uptickers had actually done any analysis at all of the study? Precious few, I suspect. Gilas made the only really useful comment about it, re the NEJM and its decline in proper peer review, which I agreed with and had demonstrated with the cohort confusion that had occurred.
On Arky’s thread about ‘getting the Vaxx’, where shades of the old Catallaxy could be seen, where people knew each other and respected each other, CL suggested that Rosie and I might be ‘friends’ of the Cat and that some people could just lay off with the aggro.
I haven’t seen much evidence of that. Regarding myself, people I’ve never heard of pile on me for no really good reason, and yet the site sustains some serious ‘Bill Gates is out to murder us all’ conspiracy whackos, who in general I give their say to and don’t complain about. I genuinely believe in freedom of speech. And I do not believe in hounding people simply for the sake of it. And I am clearly on the record as being totally against mandatory vaxxations and lockdowns.
Just leave me alone with my birdies and my favorite rendition of Carrickfergus for dusk’s fall is what I am thinking now. It better than the one I linked the other night and a powerful reflection on life’s ending.
Hah!
I am a frayed knot.
There is supposed to have been an Australian correspondent, sent to interview the Israeli General, and politician, Ariel Sharon. In all innocence, he asked a Hebrew speaking colleague, the Hebrew for “Good morning, I hope your day is going well.”
At the interview, Sharon looked at him and said “You do realize what you told me was “Go and stick your head up a dead bear’s bum?”.”
I can assist you with afrikaans for ‘ your mother f*cks for bus money’ …
if that would help?
I know how to say ‘bullshit’ in sign language, but that’s about it.
I might need sum edjahmuhcayshun.
I’m a little calmer now. Bit annoyed at myself for getting sucked in to the whole to-and-fro play, rather than just saying my piece and then walking away.
I’d really like to be able to walk around with a poleaxe. Tucked into the belt, of course. Nothing threatening about that. “It’s a therapy poleaxe, officer. You know, like a therapy dog?”
Regarding rude words in foreign languages, several years ago while holidaying in Sri Lanka I learned the local (Sinhalese) course name for female genitalia.
Here it is, and it’s right in the centre of Australia.
At the interview, Sharon looked at him and said “You do realize what you told me was “Go and stick your head up a dead bear’s bum?”.”
To misquote Marx…
Outside of a bear a book is a mans best friend.
Inside of a bear it’s too dark to read.
P’Tok!
“Sookin sin” is Russian for “son of a bitch”, Muddy.
An invaluable phrase, indeed.
Olfactory assault.
then there is the story of a dead bullock on a highway that had spent several weeks in the sun AND a truck AND a combi van.
The dumb as a rock Somalian wasn’t attacking a Conservative MP.
He was attacking what he thought was a Christian minister.
But let’s ramp up the security for MPs.
For those that are interested, here is part of a message just through from Peter Ridd.

Muddy, suggestions for next time Try using these phrases in a large booming voice..
1. Is this aggression because I’m gay?
2. Why do you need to be so racist?
3. Why are you so mean to us transgenders?
4. Allahu Akbar!!!
Canada – Do not Comply
A truly uplifting speech to Rebel News during a huge demonstration in Calgary Canada. People who have experienced communism easily recognise what is happening and absolutely refuse to tolerate it again.
Please listen. This is exactly our experience.
Muddy been in the same position once or twice. Bravado stopped both times when told no probs I’ll be at “insert place” for the next half an hour if you want to continue tough guy.
Anything he says after that is inconsequential if he doesn’t show. Problem is when you pick someone who is a multiple dan black belt and takes up your offer. (Face with head bandage)
Some discussion above re Tempe, the southern half is really quite OK, it’s Sydenham that cops the flight path.

And in other news, I am now the proud bearer of a Covid-19 Vaccine Medical Contraindication certificate getting me off the hook for the jab until 17 Feb 2022, being six months after my positive covid diagnosis.
I will test it’s efficacy at the local later on today ?
Police show up by the bus load to a Melbourne Park. In anticipation for a protest against draconian measures a day after Dan Andrews has set the Mandatory vaccination to everyone in Melbourne.
Has Andrews truly done this? A day after the government won a court case on the basis the vaccines were not “mandatory”?

The old .303 ammo with the big, copper-coloured primers certainly is Mercuric primed. It is also CHLORATE primed.
The Mercuric Fulminate is shock-sensitive, thus it starts the ignition process when the striker crushes the priming pellet between the cup and the anvil.
However, the old Cordite was a bit of a “slow-starter”, especially at low temperatures, so the (Potassium) Chlorate was added to increase “brissance” (fancy word for “flash”) to get the Cordite going.
The Mercuric Fulminate releases a hot vapour of metallic mercury as it reacts. THIS is what messes up the brass by effectively breaking the zinc / copper bonds and causing embrittlement.. It has NO effect on the steel in the barrel. HOWEVER, as the Chlorate does its thing, it produces CHLORIDE salts. Thus, it is a bit like shaking kitchen salt into your barrel. OK when it is hot and dry, but will attract ANY moisture from the air and you can just about hear the barrel rusting overnight.
Thus, the traditional method of cleaning barrels using “Mil-Spec” / “issue” .303 ammo was to simply pour boiling water from chamber to muzzle, (using the approved, issue funnel) until the water ran clear. The barrel would generally dry itself rapidly because of the heat absorbed by the steel, or you could wipe it out with a clean bit of 4 x 2 (flannelette, NOT timber) and then apply preserving oil.
Cordite-fueled .303 ammo may also be found to develop neck cracks in storage. This is because during manufacture, the Cordite “bundle” was inserted and topped by a “glazeboard” wad BEFORE the case was final-formed. Thus, there was NO “neck-annealing” after the stress of reforming a cylinder of brass into a tapered stepped cone to support the bullet.
The past is an interesting place.
New three-word slogans –Do not Comply and Stop the tyranny!
The only alternative looks to be a life of crime. Hmmm. Needs thinking about.
FFS — talk about manufactured oppression.
White, middle class classical percussionist feeling too privileged, catches cold, announces it to the world along with some perceived handicap that accompanies it.
