@Razey
Yes you are completely correct. History will be rewritten by our media to claim that all the current institutions currently pushing mandates etc will be made out to have been against it – which they will be once they are convinced the worm has turned.
All these people thinking there will be some Nuremburg 2.0 where politicians and CHOs etc will be held accountable are completely out of touch with reality. EVERY institution has dirt on their hands over this, including the courts and ‘human rights groups’ and ‘civil libertarians’. NONE of them have any interest in any accountability. And the public simply to do not the attention span to stay focused long enough.
I’ve been in government long enough to know the bigger the stuff up and the more entities involved, the less likelihood there will be any accountability. Once COVID winds down, get ready for a wave of awards and rewards for health ministers, CHOs and the others involved. Australians of the year, promotions to other positions of influence. QLD already stated it with the promotion of it’s CHO to governor.
I just opened the annual begging letter from the local cultural festival.
There are some big time donors here so generaly the event attracts heavyweight ballet, opera, musos and jazz folks.
My meager annual contrib ended abruptly a couple of years ago when they announced that Ol’ Scrotum would participate. My letter of whinge was of course ignored.
The situation was made permanent today when they announced that the Scrote will be replaced by….. you ain’t gonna believe this….Koch. Perhaps Fain and Pascoe are locked in Vic.

NZ is the most obese country in the OECD.
Yet it has one of the lowest hospital bed & ICU bed to population rates in the OECD.
Its public health system is comparable to Mexico in that regard.
Not much she can do about obesity but she’s had five years to fix the hospital system.
You’d think that would be a priority for a Labour PM.
Fantastic private equity story.
Neil Young gave Spotify an ultimatum, him or Joe Rogan & they chose Joe (that’s the old news).
The great news is that Neil Young sold a 75% stake in his catalog to a private equity firm.
And the vast majority of the streaming revenue came from Spotify.
Which is now gone.
So it means that it’s likely the private equity firm could sue Neil Young for damages, but that’s unlikely.
It’s more likely that to avoid litigation he’ll have to sell them more of the catalog for nothing.
Stupid hippy.
It’s expected that other platforms will add Young, but they’ll be paying a lot less than what Spotify was paying.
Poor suffering private equity firm, lol.

So Neil Young sold out to a private equity firm.
Then he takes a pro censorship stance that favours big Pharma.

But in 2022 they’re all vaxxed and masked up!
I wonder how his performance earnings are impacted.
He gets the tickets sales for a gig, but he has to pay away 75% of the royalties for singing his own songs.
But in 2022 they’re all vaxxed and masked up!
Same thing happened at a Rage Against the Machine gig in New York last year.
Not much she can do about obesity but she’s had five years to fix the hospital system.
You’d think that would be a priority for a Labour PM.
Her priority is wrecking the NZ economy irrevocably. Communists are like that.
It does if the data is being published each day.
I suspect there would have been a clause in the contract whereby the firm waived its rights in that regard.
During her first election campaign she claimed there were 100s of 1000s of starving kids due to John Key’s policies and people had to save them by voting Labour. Oddly, she never found any such kids once elected.
Now she wants to put families on the breadline out of work for three weeks.
Of course. They always buy into the fashionable idiocy, even when the new idiocy explicitly contradicts the older one.
They are hoping that the virus naturally subsides so they claim victory for the mask mandate.
I’m thinking of honouring my mask(s) with a frame & a spot on the wall when it all ends .. used only two in all this time, 1st one retired after one of the elastics snapped about 9 months ago, kept it tho .. it deserves a reward! ..LOL!

The COVID death by age statistics mirror almost exactly the risk of death at any age. Being a covid case increases risk of death in any year by about 10%. So if you were 1% likely to die in the next year without COVID, then that increases to 1.1% with COVID.
As a rough approximation, getting COVID increases your risk of death in the next year by about as much as being 1 year older.
If you look at a standard actuarial table, you see that it starts to get a kick along from 65 onwards.

Gotta hand it to whoever gets the big bucks running running Oz fitba for their lacklustre efforts .. The A League has been dogged by cancelled fixtures since , at least, November .. week after week the majority of, scheduled, matches have been postponed and blamed on BAT FLU whilst other sports have had their problems with BAT FLU none, even the womens version of fitba, have cancelled so many fixtures .. then we come to this week .. one game was played on Tuesday night but the rest until tomorrow (Saturday) have been cancelled .. YET & I repeat YET! .. tomorrow night two games are still on but like last week what does A League management do?.. it leaves the starting times for both games at the same time sooooo you can watch one or the other but not both .. you’d have to expect with the loss of soo many weekly games that re-scheduling times would be the obvious thing to do ,, but NO let’s make sure they clash ………. duuuuuuuuh!
Panzer, they want more equity.
One way or another they’re gunna get it.
Unless his lawyers are as stoopid as he is, there is probably a carve out for his own subsequent live performances, but he couldn’t record those performances and sell the recordings.

The equity firm – Hipgnosis -reportedly backed him against Spotify, even though it means a 60% loss in revenue.
No doubt ‘bern.
They will squeeze him big-time.
They may ultimately choose not to sue him, but he will be delivering a pound of flesh to the suits, one way or another.
Fucking idiots, if true.
Or was it a “calm the waters” public statement of support for his “integrity as an artist”, but it was lawyers at ten paces in the back room?

Probably because the firm has swallowed the woke kool-aid. Serves them right.
Snap Roger at 4:06.
Just saw your comment.
Hipgnosis was the name of the company that did every album cover of note in the 70s.
Young claims he spoke to them before the decision.
Nothing from them yet afaik.
They do seem to be a rather enwokened company.
I don’t see these artists relinquishing performance rights.
That reminds me…I owe the Stones a heck of a lot of royalties from the ’70s.
Better lay low for a while.
Gosh. It cost me 8.50 today to send two ten page letters to New Zealand. I’d run out of stamps so tossed them to the postal clerk this morning to get some more to put on these two last ones.
Online it said $1.50, so I posted some yesterday with $3 on them thinking they’d be ok. Oops.
Eyrie – We ran the Benfield process at QNI, although on high pCO2 gas stream. Works fine but needs energy.
Ideally CO2 recovery would be by a molecular sieve, like the zeolites used in oxygen plants (pressure swing absorption process). So you develop a porous substrate, either pellets or a membrane, then use pressure swing or temperature swing to absorb-desorb.
I don’t think any of this is necessary for a few thousand years given how much coal in the ground and how little effect CO2 actually has.
(This is second attempt, first was eaten by the spam monster so I’ve taken out the Benfield link.)
Neil Young v Joe Rogan.
LOL…Neil Young, a crinkly cranky old mediocre ex-hippy from the 60s and 70s that very few young people today have heard of versus the uber cool Joe Rogan whose podcasts generate millions of viewers.
I can’t believe Spotify even had to ponder the choice for ten seconds.
I went to rehab this morning and got a taxi home. The taxi driver started talking about politics and waxed lyrical about Anthony Albanese which filled me with nausea and then he said that his favourite politician was Jacinta Ardern and he wished we had her as our PM. I started to gag and had to get out of the taxi very quickly.
That’s absolute crap. Women want as many kids as they end up having, because you never want to send any back. The only thing you might want is to have had more of them. But you can always think of reasons why that might not have been such a great idea.
That linked article is just going on and on about nothing. Desperate for a story of any sort.
It seems that, during the last “national cabinet”, an agreement was made between the states to stop disclosing the vaccination statuses of those who died of/with Covid. If so, I wonder why that would be?
Perhaps they’ll also stop reporting hospitalisations and deaths soon. After all, the vaxxes prevent this and just about everyone is vaxxed, right?
It would appear a certain former White Ribbon ambassador has had his bail refused, will spend his time in the bin prior to his next court appearance, and yelled ‘No justice. Fuck!’ at the beak when he found out he wouldn’t be dropping into the BWS on his way home.
During the hearing, he is also said to have yelled ‘There was no choke!’
Aside from a reference to his own career, that may be arguable.
The vast majority of the unvaxxed are either dead or have had Orig/Alpha/Delta/Omicron and are immune.
Soon 100% of cases and deaths will be vaxxed (1+).
I suppose they see no benefit drawing attention to that fact.

I hope you at last managed to politely gasp at him as a parting shot that you begged to differ. Tell him that your friend in NZ who is a taxi driver is doing 24 days quarantine wihtout pay as one of his passengers made him a close contact, and another friend of yours, an uber driver in Sydney, just had his electric car spontaneously combust. The left lie all the time, so give a bit of invention back.
They have you over a barrell until you arrive, especially if you are feeling below par, so have your little muse as you exit the vehicle and leave him to ponder his leftie fate.
Better luck next time, maybe get a driver of a different stripe.
Yep. My advice to anyone who wants children is start having them in your 20s rather than your 30s. The sooner, the better. Career advancement can wait. Get used to living more frugally.

The equity firm – Hipgnosis -reportedly backed him against Spotify, even though it means a 60% loss in revenue.
They have an obligation to unit holders in the fund that owns the equity in Neil Young.
Maybe the PE firm is woke, but there will be investors who will be suing the PE firm for not suing Neil Young.
In the US, investors suing managers for breach of mandate is a regular occurrence.
He wasn’t a bad TV game show host, in all honesty. IIRC, he was slick and had good chemistry with the contestants and audience. He should have stayed in that lane. When he moved into opinion TV, he exposed himself as a politically correct, sanctimonious tosser (figuratively, not literally – well, not that I’m aware of). Hence no one is shedding any tears at his demise.

The vast majority of the UnVaxxed, i.e., all of them, haven’t had any of these events happen.

Hmmms… just had my 5th phone call from a nice Indian accented lady at Telstra who was getting in touch to let me know that ‘due COVID19, you are having a 30% reduction in your bill …. I just need to confirm your details”

Spotify reportedly paid Rogan $100 meg for exclusive podcast rights.
If they ditch him they are up for the $100 meg plus they get sued by Rogan for the reputational damage in effectively endorsing Young’s comments.
What do they lose by ditching Young?
Well, not much.
A few ageing hippies cancel their subs, but nothing like $100 million.
Forget the listening numbers for Young on Spotify.
A lot of that comes from cross-referencing other similar artists (“you might also like” and “people who listened to this also listened to …”).
Spotify is yuuuge.
When the music is on other platforms and a dedicated Neil Young channel the listening numbers will drop.
Used to be I’d offer them a job, at Australian pay rates.
This changes the direction of the conversation quite markedly.

Proper crooks in New South Wales went through Mittagong Boys Home & Gosford Boys Home, and the only things they leant there, apart from how to darn socks at MBH, is that adult males will tend to fuck young kids, a lesson many of them put into practice when they got the opportunity.
I like the ones from the “Technical Department of Telstra and Optus”. Trying to cover all bases! Yes they say this, it’s always good for a chuckle. Maybe some bright spark decided to save on phone calls by combining the Telstra scam calls with the Optus scam calls.

Agreed. I have four children of whom two are boys (well, grown men now) and from the time they were old enough to understand I taught that you mustn’t hit girls. When they were old enough, I told them that they may meet a woman who, if she was a bloke, you’d smack them in the chops for their words/behaviour. But as the person is a female, just walk away. Hitting a woman is a coward’s act. To the best of my knowledge, both lads follow that doctrine.
I have no sympathy for O’Keefe. If he has mental issues then they should be addressed with treatment. If he is just a bully, then that will also be addressed.
Roger Dean was one of Hipgnosis’ best artists – he did amazing covers for Yes, Osibisa, Uriah Heep, Pink Floyd and many others.
They were mesmerising. With the advent of cassettes, and then CDs the art form died. If you have any of the original covers – look after them. They are precious.

Despite the eye-watering fees and high profile clientele, the Sydney Clinic is no luxury day spa. Conditions are spartan for regular guests and even more so for those on suicide watch.

Thanks for posting that, Oco. It is a peek into the psyche of many modern young women* – mememe!, poor me, I want it now! – but this case is a tad weird: allowing a childhood fancy to rule her life.
Even so, she’s guaranteed the support of her readers – * – because she’s baby-yearning. And it’s everyone else’s damn fault, for presuming to ask (when she was a child) how many children she’d like.
(Still, it’s a nice change from all the modern young women who are keen to kill thir unwanted babies before they take their first breath.)
*To be fair, every young woman – boomers and millenials alike – was self absorbed to some degree at some stage. The difference is that they didn’t all have social media to reinforce that they were extremely hard done by. A good whinge to a friend or sister, then back to it.

Self awareness is something that happens to other people
Really, you don’t hate Marlboros? I don’t smoke the brand but I think Lights are okay. I puff B&H Smooth. They’re the nearest to Merrit Blue in the US, which was my brand.

Accidently read an Ed Case post.
Are they all full of lies like this one?
Absolutely, Struth-sock.
After all, as you have proclaimed ad nauseam the boomers are just laughing at us as they continue to scheme and plot to do away with us all.
Right down to the last inheritance dollar…
Every. Last. One. 🙂
Hypnosis did some great album covers for 10cc. “How Dare You” and Bloody Tourists are standouts. The cover they did for one hit wonder, Voyager’s album, “Act of Love” was a cracker. The album covers and inside covers always told a story.
UK Daily Mail
Top doctors refuse to give their own kids a third shot as studies find chances of vaccinated boys between 12 and 17 being hospitalized are 0.3 out of 100,000
What is the hospitalisation rate for unvaccinated children? I would suggest it’s less than the 0.3 out of 100,000 mentioned. And they’re still calling myocarditis “rare”. I wish someone would define that for me.
As any decent father would do.
However, someone needs to teach certain ‘ladies’ that they mustn’t hit men.
Choo choo & your boyfriend, still have no idea about Central banks & money creation.
You think because I don’t like central banks that makes me anti due ish.
As I have said before you shouldn’t be that stupid with only one head.
The Fed in the USA is talking about raising rates, generally they only raise rates when they have a republican president.
Research it you two dumbfucks.
Young Miss Cardimona has just nuked the Greens. Good.
Empty shelves proof that business has fallen into a Greens trap (28 Jan, paywalled)
On the other hand I suspect most of the cause for empty shelves is due to insane coof regulations given from on high by our pollies and their CHO overseers. But since they’re part of the same species homo eliteitis I think it’s still fair.

What? You didn’t punch a hole in the corner and retie the elastic? Wasteful. 😛

I was reading this morning about an Irishman who was transported for life to the Colony of New South Wales for engaging in Whiteboyism (the forerunners of the Sinn Fein movement). When facing court, the Prosecutor’s address claimed:
“… that by the Act of the 16th and 17th of George the Third it was enacted, that any persons compelling His Majesty’s Lege subject to quit their possessions or employments, were guilty of a felony without benefit of clergy”
People are currently losing their homes and employment due to government compelling them to do so for refusing to take an experimental medical procedure. Those guilty of this crime should be hung, or transported for life to Heard Island.
From the same book:
“[English law in Ireland was] a machine … as well fitted for the oppression, impoverishment, and degradation of a people …as ever proceeded from the perverted ingenuity of man.”
Edmund Burke on The Penal Laws, 1765
Things really haven’t improved
it’s the 12 Monkeys script avec shit-posting.
if she is in France, she can put me down for 2 off gallic hotties … just don’t tell them about the vasectomy.
… I’ll save that nugget for break-up night
Oh dear someone is triggered.
It’s off season, most restaurants are closed, as are all private tourist places, boat tours etc, the usual beggars are in their usual places, outside the supermarket and the church after mass on Sundays.
I’ve been in France many times, other than mask conformity indoors, in the main, life is normal.
The restaurants that are open on the weekends, are crowded, with locals.
Incidentally until a couple of days ago you could show a rats test (which only cost €2 each) or a recovery certificate to eat out etc.
And as I pointed out no-one on public transport is asked to show their green pass, even when the police are on the train, here or in Italy.
On other words the restrictions were ineffective at nudging the reluctant to vaccinate, which is why macron cracked it and removed the rats option.
And if you think not being able to dine out is real suffering, I suggest you rethink your world view.
And trust me a baguette alfresco in the sun with a fabulous view can be just as enjoyable.
Daughter had one of those some years back.
Long story short: she followed the ‘technicians’ advice, leading him along for a while, knowing that it was a scam, then said anxiously, “I’ve got the blue screen of death!”
“Are you messing with me?” he spluttered, before hanging up.
Come on choo choo man, post a link that the Australian taxpayer owns the RBA.
Even the money gobshite Head Prefect the all knowledgeable should be able to help you with this.
I suppose the Holocaust was based on a software error too. Germans, sheesh.
Germans. Dogged, determined, competent at what they. Attention to detail, hate losing. Great to have on your side.
Only problem is when they get pointed in the wrong direction.
I had a lecturer who smoked Kent coffin nails during class.
and other things but it’s a delicate balance of pointing those things out and avoiding enabling the violence.
Lol srr used to accuse me of not being in Europe when I said I was, pre 2017.
I said many many times over the last two years, I wasn’t afraid of catching covid and that I was living my life and breaching restrictions on a daily basis.
I made a personal judgement regarding vaccines, I made a personal judgement about travel, I made a personal judgement about omicron and went ahead with my plans.
Tomorrow I’m catching a ferry to Marseilles, though I booked the €55 budget cabin, pretty pointless paying extra for a view on an overnight trip when I can get up in the morning and enjoy the view coming into Marseilles from the deck.
good on her.
had some sub-continental ring me up years ago and told me my PC was infected.
So I strung him along for about 30 minutes on the phone while he tried to coax me into opening a CMD window and handing him control of my PC.
In the end he was convinced I was really stupid
I told him it wasn’t that… it’s my eyesight
need new glasses mate … let’s try again.
when he got really exasperated
I asked him, “what’s it feel like to be fucked around for 1/2 an hour mate?”
Got to go, attending 9.30 am mass at the cathedral.
Pretty clear it is leaning towards the latter.
Evidence was put forward that the mental elf defence has worn out it’s welcome.
And when you are remanded in custody for an assault charge, that is a strong indicator that the beak thinks there is a high chance of conviction and is ultimately looking at time in the slot, “so you may as well get started now”.
Obviously the magistrate thinks O’Keefe is out of control and likely (almost certain) to assault someone else. Probably also thinks it might help dry him out.
If ussr says you are not in Europe, take a look around.
More than likely you will see the Eiffel Tower, the Parthenon or the Brandenburg Gate.

o’Keefe’s missus? … sure, butter wouldn’t melt in her mouth
Biggles, come on support your tag team member.
Show me with evidence of who runs the RBA (hint it ain’t us).
Insulting me helps your case.
Check your email.
Wasn’t it O’Keefes 4th time up before the beak? Whatever you think of police AVOs (not much) magistrates don’t like it if you look like you are taking the piss – unless you are a recognised minority group.
Just think how depraved Rosie would be if she weren’t a good Catholic to give her some sort of approximation to a moral sense.
Ha, ha, yes.
Greta Thumbstix gets totally triggered at the mere suggestion of someone over 60 churning through the kid’s inheritance on a European vacation.
Mark Latham attacks Andrew O’Keefe and Van Badham
Well, so far she hasn’t claimed to be buying icecream for kids …
But .. but …but the Neapolitanas.
“I have no sympathy for O’Keefe. If he has mental issues then they should be addressed with treatment. If he is just a bully, then that will also be addressed.”
I have zero sympathy for him. He has long been a smarmy, nasty, arrogant bully. As for the “mental issues”….I say bullshit. What he has is anger issues….very different to “mental issues”.
I don’t enjoy taking please from other’s misfortune….but I make an exception for O’Keefe.
That was the tone of the reports I saw.
Rolling up and flipping the mental elf card off the bottom of the deck wasn’t going to fly.
Speaking of taking the piss, his brief advanced the technically correct (but skating on thin ice) argument that he had no priors.
Well, he would have had a prior conviction six months ago apart from pulling the mental elf stunt, then promptly got back on the pipe.
If you have any of the original covers – look after them. They are precious.
Had all of Pink Floyd’s in vinyl, complete with posters and the postcard from Wish You Were Here. Also the Beatles’ White Album in white vinyl, and Sgt Pepper in red vinyl.
Sold them all in 2007.
Yep.
It is exploitation of people with genuine mental illness to just keep trotting it out as an excuse for SBS*.
I know of someone who was in the clinic concurrently with him a while ago.
What happens in the clinic stays in the clinic but let’s just say your suspicions are confirmed.
.
* SBS – Shitty Behaviour Syndrome.
Noooooo!
I don’t know why, but apart from Abbey Road, my favourite covers are “Late For the Sky” (Jackson Browne) and “Nebraska” (Bruce Springsteen).
Where you gone choo choo man?
You & your tag team member were insulting me for weeks for saying that the taxpayers don’t own the central banks.
Time to show evidence or STFU.

In high school, our Ag teacher smoked a pipe in the classroom
Sounds like a top bloke.
I had a lecturer who smoked Kent coffin nails during class.
Our school bus driver used to make and smoke a rollie while driving.
Was a top bloke.
I see you are moving from the subject biggles.
You think so? I reckon this applies to women who have delayed having kids for too long (obviously), or perhaps have divorced and remarried in their mid 30s and decide they want to have a kid with the new guy…but women who have had their full complement of kids with the same bloke suddenly yearning for another with the same bloke in the years running up to menopause? Hmm. I haven’t heard about this before – can the ladies here confirm or deny?
I had some really good RBA material, but accidentally dropped it down a tunnel in Tel Aviv.
The famous micronite filter, asbestos wasn’t it?
I woke up from surgery once and asked the nurse for an ashtray, she bought it for me too. That was only 30 years ago.
‘Truly embarrassing’: Reporter asked Jen Psaki why Biden isn’t promoting healthier lifestyles to combat Covid-19 and she did NOT want to go there

Would you be interested in my new health tonic.
Tastes great but the information on what’s in it is hidden for 50 years.
And I have a study I conducted that shows it’s an order or 2 of magnitude better in the tests than the real world.
Anyway it doesn’t matter if you want it or not the blokes who used to work for me at the TGA just mandated one a day or you can’t go to work.
Lead gives everything such a nice mellow flavour.
I was wondering why my last pizza tasted a bit rich…
Why are you so desperate to deflect from your Juice obsession, discount-knockoff Bird?
Why not embrace it, like he did? You won’t be any more [or less] of a nuffy if you do…
Choo choo you really are dumb as dogshit.
Go shunt a train you bonehead.
Show me who owns the RBA, Not insults you fucking idiot.
Come on show the evidence.
You can’t.
I once invested in an airship company that boasted of using this thoroughly modern material throughout its aircraft’s construction.
It never got off the ground.
I’ll never take financial advice from Ed Case ever again…
need more dad jokes.
I used to get those “Telstra” calls when I had a landline. One time I told the guy “I work for Telstra actually.” (I didn’t.) He told me to fark off and hung up.
Now I’m getting an SMS pretty much every day about the parcel what got delivered etc.
But why?
You already know who runs it. You keep telling us it’s the [Grong Grong Football and Netball Club]!
You do make me smile when you start with the sprays, Runnybum… 🙂
No wonder this country is fucked when people have no idea of the banking system & how it works.
People should educate themselves, it is all out there on the internet thing.
But lotsa people rely on a train driver.
We are fucked.
Try the mutton. It’s delicious.

Have you missed out on the one about your face appearing in a video somewhere?
Still driving the porcelain bus runnybum?
Here’s an interesting interview of Craig Kelly by Prof. David Flint.
I’m surprised that Prof. Flint was unaware that the vaxxines were only provisionally approved by the TGA, he’s always impressed me as a very erudite gentleman, I thought he would have known.
Miltonf, beats the fuck out of a porcelain brain.
Yep. Ain’t we grand? 🙂

The Commonwealth owns the RBA. Schoolchildren understand how M3 creation works. It doesn’t drive inflation. Intentional loose monetary policy does.
There is no mystery or conspiracy.
Me too, also “is this you in this video”.
The SAS could be put to good use in dealing with these people, quietly mind.
