On the Faulty Voting Method:

If everyone put their sitting member last, and then voted according to their preference:

In the HoR:
Weโ€™d most likely have a Labor government, with perhaps 10 to 12 Green Members.

In the Senate:
Almost impossible to guess. Weโ€™d probably have a Mos Eisley Cantina: with Weirdos (personality + single issue groups), Greens, Libs, and Lab in roughly equal numbers – perhaps proportionately more Libs.

I suspect that Faulty was arguing for the end of Australia as we know it.

Luckily for those of us wanting to send a message in a bottle, most people will vote tribe.

So:

1) Pick the least offensive offering from the Turd Smorgasbord;

2) Vote 1 The Rubiks Cube Party – to send your $2.70 somewhere else;

3) Vote Greens last – as a hygiene measure;

4) Vote Ploppy Party of Choice 2nd.

Similar process for the Senate – just follow 127 steps, mixing up Labor and Free Willy candidates, not the preference line.

Or draw artistic genitalia.

The best thing we can do is cause as much damage the to establishment parties as possible, maximise decent minor party votes and cause utter chaos – 140/150 times, it means the sitting member goes dead last, after the other uniparty rogues.

Not doing the lazy “above the line” voting in the Senate.
It takes away the influence of the Glenn Druery (preference whisperer) types, who end up giving us the clusterfuck that is the Victorian Upper House.

I’m finding it interesting that two of the witnesses giving the most damaging testimony have been certified against self incrimination. Also, in any unit, let alone an elite unit like Special Air Service Regiment, would anybody prepared to testify against a fellow member of that unit, to back the word of the vultures of the Press, have any future in that unit? “Be down at the Orderly Room, applying for a posting out – any time in the next twenty minutes will be fine.”

Postcard.
I went to a (very small) exhibition of Islamic art inside the chapel of the penitents bleu which the church surrendered back to the state in 1974, about 20 metres from what should have been the entrance to the cathedral, you do wonder why it was necessary to have another church so close.
I think there are about eight or nine churches and chapels within 500 metres of the cathedral.
I also found the chapel of the penitents blancs which might have previously been part of an Augustine monastery, now apparently the home of traditional Catholics, formerly known as SSPX, where I attended the last bit of a mass.
As Chrisl mentioned the market is gorgeous, beautifully presented fresh and cooked food, with lots of people settlee in enjoying meals and drinks at the stand up restaurants around the place.
Lots of tourists in town for le weekend, not surprisingly, many are Spanish.

The wolves are out (the Hun):

Twenty days after pulverizing Englandโ€™s brittle batsmen in the final Ashes Test, Australiaโ€™s bowling cartel claimed another scalp.

That was the firm view of some players inside the national dressing room on Saturday after coach Justin Langer resigned.

And:

Sections of Australian cricket have accused the โ€œCricket New South Wales mafiaโ€ of undermining Langer, pointing out that Neil Maxwell is a director at Cricket NSW and also manages Australiaโ€™s bowling captain Pat Cummins.

I knew it. People of substance to date who have publicly said this state of affairs is shithouse:

Thanks Farmer Gez and 132and Bush.

Given what I’ve learned today I thought it wouldn’t be ignored but perhaps some more attention to the issue might be beneficial. Don’t know, need to take that up with the relevant bods.

Matrix: ya never know because plants donate carbon to the root dwelling fungi. The roots of plants can be riddled with fungi and that is a good thing for the plant. At a broader level it illustrates how little we understand the extent of symbiosis in life. We are inclined to think of all these species competing with each other when the reality is much more complex. Without our microbiome we’d be dead in a week. Most plants without fungi will experience a similiar fate.

Serious question, if we are not at war in a very real physical sense where you can be cannon fodder, and you are a man making excuses not to get married and have a family because “marriage is stacked against men” or some such nonsense – then of what use are you cowards to society and the future?

Bruce in WA
February 5, 2022 11:43 pm

Thought some people here might get a little giggle, or even a titter, out of this:

This is not for my Tribe Readers โ€” they know all this stuff โ€” itโ€™s for all the Gentiles (goyim ) like me. By the way, the Jewish diet would always be a prime reason why I could never convert โ€” that, and the little snip! thing.

The Atkinstein Diet

If you get this and you are not Jewish, I cannot even begin to explain it to you!

This goes back 2 generations, 3 if you are over 50. It also explains why many Jewish men died in their early 60โ€™s with a non-functional cardiovascular system and looked like todayโ€™s men at 89.

Before we start, there are some variations in ingredients because of the various types of Jewish taste (Polack, Litvack, Dutch and Gallicianer).

Just as we Jews have six seasons of the year (winter, spring, summer, autumn, the slack season, and the busy season), we all focus on a main ingredient which, unfortunately and undeservedly, has disappeared from our diet. Iโ€™m talking, of course, about SCHMALTZ (chicken fat). SCHMALTZ has, for centuries, been the prime ingredient in almost every Jewish dish, and I feel itโ€™s time to revive it to its rightful place in our homes. (I have plans to distribute it in a green glass Gucci bottle with a label clearly saying: โ€œlow fat, no cholesterol, Newmanโ€™s Choice, extra virgin SCHMALTZ.โ€ (It canโ€™t miss!) Then there are grebenes โ€“ pieces of chicken skin, deep fried in SCHMALTZ, onions and salt until crispy brown (Jewish bacon). This makes a great appetizer for the next cardiologistโ€™s convention.

Thereโ€™s also a nice chicken fricassee (stew) using the heart, gorgle (neck), pipick (a great delicacy, given to the favorite child, usually me), a fleegle (wing) or two, some ayelech (little premature eggs) and other various chicken innards, in a broth of SCHMALTZ, water, paprika, etc. We also have knishes (filled dough) and the eternal question, โ€œWill that be liver, beef or potatoes, or all three?โ€
Other time-tested favorites are kishkeh, and its poor cousin, helzel (chicken or goose neck). Kishkeh is the gut of the cow, bought by the foot at the Kosher butcher. It is turned inside out, scalded and scraped. One end is sewn up and a mixture of flour, SCHMALTZ, onions, eggs, salt, pepper, etc., is spooned into the open end and squished down until it is full. The other end is sewn and the whole thing is boiled. Yummy!

My personal all-time favorite is watching my Zaida (grandpa) munch on boiled chicken feet.
For our next course we always had chicken soup with pieces of yellow-white, rubbery chicken skin floating in a greasy sea of lokshen (noodles), farfel (broken bits of matzah), tzibbeles (onions), mondlech (soup nuts), kneidlach (dumplings), kasha (groats), kliskelech and marech (marrow bones) . The main course, as I recall, was either boiled chicken, flanken, kackletten, hockfleish (chopped meat), and sometimes rib steaks, which were served either well done, burned or cremated. Occasionally we had barbecued liver done to a burned and hardened perfection in our own coal furnace.

Since we couldnโ€™t have milk with our meat meals, beverages consisted of cheap soda (Kik, Dominion Dry, seltzer in the spritz bottles).

Growing up Jewish

If you are Jewish, and grew up in city with a large Jewish population, or are gentile with Jewish friends or associates, the following will invoke heartfelt memories.

The Yiddish word for today is PULKES (PUHL-kees). Translation: THIGHS. Please note: this word has been traced back to the language of one of the original Tribes of Israel, the Cellulites.

The only good advice that your Jewish mother gave you was: โ€œGo! You might meet somebody!โ€

You grew up thinking it was normal for someone to shout โ€œAre you okay?โ€ through the bathroom door when you were in there longer than 3 minutes.

Your family dog responded to commands in Yiddish.

Every Saturday morning your father went to the neighbourhood deli (called an โ€œappetitizing storeโ€) for whitefish salad, whitefish โ€œchubsโ€, lox (nova if you were rich!), herring, corned beef, roast beef, cole slaw, potato salad, a 1/2-dozen huge barrel pickles which you reached into the brine for, a dozen assorted bagels, cream cheese and rye bread (sliced while he waited). All of which would be strictly off-limits until Sunday morning.

Every Sunday afternoon was spent visiting your grandparents and/or other relatives.

You experienced the phenomenon of 50 people fitting into a 10-foot-wide dining room hitting each other with plastic plates trying to get to a deli tray.

You had at least one female relative who penciled on eyebrows which were always asymmetrical.
You thought pasta was stuff used exclusively for Kugel and kasha with bowties.

You were as tall as your grandmother by the age of seven.

You were as tall as your grandfather by age seven and a half.

You never knew anyone whose last name didnโ€™t end in one of 5 standard suffixes (berg, baum, man, stein and witz).

You were surprised to discover that wine doesnโ€™t always taste like cranberry sauce.

You can look at gefilte fish and not turn green.

When your mother smacked you really hard, she continued to make you feel bad for hurting her hand.

You can understand Yiddish but you canโ€™t speak it.

You know how to pronounce numerous Yiddish words and use them correctly in context, yet you donโ€™t know exactly what they mean. Kaynahurra.

Youโ€™re still angry at your parents for not speaking both Yiddish and English to you when you were a baby.

You have at least one ancestor who is somehow related to your spouseโ€™s ancestor.

You thought speaking loud was normal.

You considered your Bar or Bat Mitzvah a โ€œGet Out of Hebrew School Freeโ€ card.

You think eating half a jar of dill pickles is a wholesome snack.

Youโ€™re compelled to mention your grandmotherโ€™s โ€œsteel cannonballsโ€ upon seeing fluffy matzo balls served at restaurants.

You buy 3 shopping bags worth of hot bagels on every trip downtown and carefully shlep them home like glassware. (Or, if you live outside a Jewish city hub, you drive 2 or 3 hours just to buy a dozen โ€œrealโ€ bagels.)

Your mother or grandmother took personal pride when a Jew was noted for some accomplishment (showbiz, medicine, politics, etc.) and was ashamed and embarrassed when a Jew was accused of a crimeโ€ฆ as if they were relatives.

You thought only non-Jews went to sleep-away colleges. Jews went to city schoolsโ€ฆ unless they had scholarships or made an Ivy League school.

And finally, you knew that Sunday night and the night after any Jewish holiday was designated for Chinese food.

Zei gezunt!!

It’s precisely the contempt and arrogance demonstrated by your question that is causing men to walk away.
Take the case of Ben Roberts Smith:

A man who would be considered the peak of what men should aspire do, does what is demanded/expected of him by his society/government, only to be thrown under the bus and dragged through the mud when it becomes politically convenient.

Men are expected to sacrifice everything for ‘society’ to then be rewarded with that society taking a giant shit on their head and they are supposed to smile and nod while it happens…

Men are turning their backs on society as they feel there is no reward for ‘doing the right thing’ and in many ways, that the society they are in is no longer worth sacrificing for.

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom the emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand wrapped in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed. The insight into the mystery of life, coupled though it be with fear, has also given rise to religion. To know what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their most primitive forms-this knowledge, this feeling is at the center of true religiousness.

But what was witnesses opinion of Corp. BRS ? A bully ? What about more senior officers ? Why couldnโ€™t you speak to them ? What do you think BRS thought of other members in the unit ? Why would he think that ? Were the senior officers in control ? Did they have a good understanding of the situation ?

Arthur needs to pull his finger out or BRS will end up on a murder charge.

Hong Kong police arrest 3 more staff from childrenโ€™s home over abuse allegations
New arrests bring total number of suspects to 23; officers also identify another four toddlers who were allegedly abused
About 50 to 60 children have continued to live at the Hong Kong Society for the Protection of Childrenโ€™s Mong Kok facility since scandal
Hong Kong police have arrested three more staff members of a scandal-hit child protection group over accusations of abuse, taking the total number of suspects in the case to 23.
Officers also identified another four toddlers who were allegedly abused at the Mong Kok residential home run by the Hong Kong Society for the Protection of Children (HKSPC). All of the 39 toddlers who were allegedly harmed were sent to hospital for check-ups.
Police arrested the three new suspects, aged between 24 and 45, on Friday morning at their homes in Tseung Kwan O, Kwai Chung and Sham Shui Po, according to the force. They have been detained for questioning.
Since the scandal broke in late December, about 50 to 60 children have continued to live at the facility

:The scandal came to light after police received a report that some children were allegedly abused by staff at an outdoor playground at the residential home in Mong Kok. The Independent Review Committee, chaired by lawyer Lester Garson Huang, found that a child had been lifted by the collar and dumped onto a mat, while another was thrown against a padded wall. Some employees were also said to have used slapping as corporal punishment, among other misconduct.”

Seriously total horseshit. Un-referenced of course.

It is doubtful that there were 1 million slaves in existence even before the war.

The South was under Martial Law between 1865 and 1877

2. Jew hating Greens

3. Animal Justice Party……a group which doesn’t actually give a rat’s arse about animals and is only concerned about pushing hard left vegan Marxist ideology…..although I’m pretty sure Marx, Engels, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Castro and all the rest of the Marxist scum weren’t vegetarians or vegans and knowing history as I do, the first thing they would have done with vegan scum is to shoot them.

The Lib Dems now have a candidate in Wentworth…amen. He will get my first preference. I will also help campaign for him.

As for the senate, I will vote under the line – Lib Dems first, followed by PHON followed by UAP…though I’m not a fan of Fatso Clive.

My sister lives in the marginal inner-west Liberal electorate of Reid where they actually need her vote to survive but she intends to deface her lower house paper and vote under the line in the senate…PHON, UAP and Lib Dems.

โ€œPeople are worried about cost of living and their health, and we are talking about ourselves againโ€ฆ

Clean up afterwards? After being re-elected Deputy PM in the Morrison Coalition Government?

A third MP, a critic of Mr Joyce, said he had angered party members by offering his resignation to a Liberal.

โ€œOnly the Nationals party room can take away his leadership. That sounded like it was crafted by the PMO,โ€ said the MP. โ€œThe fact that he said he didnโ€™t know Scott until now doesnโ€™t hold water either.โ€

Seen elsewhere this morning. Some things are eternal wisdom.

Politics is full of people who want to prove theyโ€™re the smartest person in the room but they almost never realise that the room theyโ€™re in rarely has any really smart people in it!

but it is now an open question as to how the pair can work together given the Deputy Prime Ministerโ€™s scathing assessment of the Prime Ministerโ€™s character.

Scotty leaked the character assessment in the first place, so he doesn’t care.
The real issue is that Mick is popular with Left Footer voters everywhere so they’ve gotta bring him back.

How do you burn a horse?

Same way you burn a mule, cow, duck, goose, chook, pig or a sheep.
Shooting it is usually the first step, but Sherman’s and Sheridan’s men didn’t give 2 fucks either way.

Gladys Berejklian is tipped to start a high-flying new job at Australia’s famous ‘millionaire factory’ as she puts corruption probe and politics behind her

So, $500k+ pa for insider views on the operation of NSW government, political strategy, and the Liberal party at a national level. Plus a bit of sensitive high-level door opening.

Gladys will be hoping her character assessment of Scummo is quickly overshadowed by the Beetrooterโ€™s.

The campaign began with Sherman’s troops leaving the captured city of Atlanta on November 15 and ended with the capture of the port of Savannah on December 21. His forces followed a “scorched earth” policy, destroying military targets as well as industry, infrastructure, and civilian property, disrupting the Confederacy’s economy and transportation networks.

The operation broke the back of the Confederacy and helped lead to its eventual surrender. Sherman’s decision to operate deep within enemy territory and without supply lines is considered to be one of the major campaigns of the war, and is taught by some historians as an early example of modern warfare or total war.

One of the all-time highlights of modern warfare. Kicked the chair out from under a slavery-dependent minority elites confederacy who founded the KKK.

Also, and in answer to ‘what happened to the poor blecks?’:

Forty acres and a mule is part of Special Field Orders No. 15, a wartime order proclaimed by Union General William Tecumseh Sherman on January 16, 1865, during the American Civil War, to allot land to some freed families, in plots of land no larger than 40 acres (16 ha). Sherman later ordered the army to lend mules for the agrarian reform effort… following disruptions to the institution of slavery provoked by the American Civil War.

In South Carolina, Georgia and Florida they got their own land.

It’s Thandiwe, she’s ditched the slave name.
She was pretty good in Line of Duty, playing a powerful black wahman who was forced to bend the rules to get ahead, because patriarchy.
Only to end up in prison because of racist misogyny

Um, dumdum, Sherman didn’t tell the troops “Hey cracka, don’t burn them houses, crops, farm buildings, and shoot those particular livestocks, because whatta the slaves gonna do then?”
Except maybe in Knuckle Dragger fantasy land.

Gladys Berejiklian is tipped to follow in the footsteps of previous NSW premiers and start a new role at the ‘millionaire factory’ – Macquarie Bank – as she quits her life in politics.

Somewhere to focus when Nuremberg 2.0 gets cranked up.

Yes. I wondered at the time whether it was appropriate or not. I listened to Hoodie’s speech and a few others but switched Bosi off after the fuck this and fuck that and paedophile this and again – that. Enough.

Thanks, Bespoke, but believe it or not, the total number of Slaves landed in what was later to become the United States up to 1809 when the trade ceased was around 400,000.
The 4.4 million figure for 1860 [see Duncanm’s link earlier today] was from Natural Increase.
In Brazil it was at least a million landed from West Africa..

The assasination of Lincoln caused most of the problems .. Lincoln was preparing to welcome the South back into the fold with minimal sanctions/directives but with his death & Andrew Johnson, a rapid Confederate hater, assuming the presidency the minimal became maximum and the advent of the “carpetbaggers” & strict Union rule sowed the seeds for Southern white belligerency which in turn led to the creation of the KKK …
As to how many ex slaves may/may not have starved to death I’ve no idea but to free folk who had spent their entire lives without owning anything without any sort of plan was plain stupidity .. the land they had lived their entire lives on was, mostly, devasted .. the land-owners, in many cases, responsible for their everyday sustenance were themselves living in penury & destitution so to suddenly be told .. “Your free, enjoy” was never going to be an overnight success story !

Yep, issued without any consultation or authority .. Even Grant backed away when he heard of it! .. easy to say when there is no actual detail/plan as to how the mule & land were to be found/funded .. sounded good and might of had a hearing with Lincoln but no hope with Johnson .. the rip-offs would have been manna from heaven for the ‘carpet-bagger’ class ..

Yeah, blacks in the United States has been a demographic success story.

Bullshit. Proclaimed, put into practice – some 40,000 freed slaves got their “40 acres and a mule” and later welshed on by Andrew Johnson.

  1. That is an interesting possibility; that a faction in the GAE would be prepared to sacrifice the former in order…
