Unintended consequences pt556-
Booked in for a haircut.
Can I sneak in Thurs arvo?
-Oh no, we’re booked out- how about Wed arvo next week?
yip sure.
Rolled in Wed. Girl at the desk asks me to mask up, fair enough, took it off in the chair of course, which was 90% of my contact time there…
Hey I couldn’t get a slot for late night Thursday, you said you were booked out, but I noticed you were closed up at 4:30?
-oh yeah, we’ve lost five girls to the jab mandate- they want to have babies some day- so now the six who are left are all doing forty hour weeks to clear the backlog, that’s as far as we can push them before overtime kills us. No more late night Thursdays of course.
Are any of the needle-shy chicks doing backyard cuts for cash?

That makes sense. I have a friend who underwent a religious conversion (on a bus I believe) and became a priest. He mentioned once that to dress up as a priest was frowned upon for the similar reasons, the dog collar gave you access to places.

To those who participate in the wilful trashing of common law and who desire its elimination……

May the day come when someone you love is accused of an unspeakable crime, that person might be your son, your partner, your father, your brother and so on and this loved one is deemed guilty until proven innocent by the howling and screeching lynch mobs…………because, because, because, “believe all women” and “women don’t lie”.

I have a relative who was a vocal member of the Pell lynch mob on Facebook.
She has two sons in their twenties, and one is a Primary School teacher.
I would never put anything like this on soshul meeja because it is too easily misconstrued, but I did comment to Mrs Panzer, “What if one of Xxx’s students pops up in 25 years time and claims that Xxx assaulted him twice in 2020 after school. Hasn’t mentioned it since, is vague about dates, can’t accurately describe the configuration of the place where it allegedly happened, and his ‘corroborating witness’ is conveniently dead. Presumably she just says that is good enough and Xxx needs to do 5-10 years.”
Not.

Cassie, I watched one of his presentations when he had his nephew co hosting. I lost interest pretty quick in it and didn’t see anymore episodes. Then there was the rant full of expletives and that was my first whoa, then the blue card to join his party which I thought was a little over the top and another hmm. The last straw was the rant at the judge, for someone considering a tilt at representational duties he shot his credibility in one foul swoop.

Is mono-brow his nephew?
Kind of funny.
One of Mrs Panzer’s friends, who is a tad eccentric, sent her a video of Bosi around early last year I think.
She presses play and I recognise the voice.
I say, “Hey, this bloke posts at the Cat. He’s not bad value.”
Faaarrk!
Next minute he is off to the moon on a dunny door with his “Pedos in High Places” rant and Mrs Panzer is looking at me askance.
“I’ve not heard this stuff before … ” I plead.
Which was true.
Up until then I thought he was just a very assertive conservative.

Aussie Cossack handled that superbly.

What creeps me out is that people just like that kid are frequently leaving comments on youtube videos – and getting plenty of support! Some tackle them, but many people don’t bother to read all the comments.
I guess the frequent attacks on huge corporations from conservatives in recent years is just the stage they need to perform on.

The idea that a quarter of the released slaves starved to death in a bit over a decade after being released is, to put it tactfully, unsupported by any actual evidence.

By7 released you mean:
The Place that their families lived in for generations was burnt to the ground, the livestock killed or stolen and the crops burnt.
This is likely to come as a huge surprise to you, but growing food requires tilling the soil, planting the crop, tending to the crop qand harvesting the crop. An d starting in the right season.
These people were destitute, had no food, since the Union Army was either consuming and destroying all the food.
There were 4.4 million slaves in the Confederate States in 1860.
Given the chaos of the War and their total dispossession, i’d say 1 million deaths resulting from their “release” is likely a lowball estimate.

Note also, that the black population continued to rise while Ed alleges that a million of them were starving to death.

Hold on, earlier you said that you don’t accept Duncanm’s link to slave numbers.
Have you changed your mind on the link, or are you just arguing for no point, as usual?

Spot of spacechooking for Cat’s with an interest in matters military. Kristen Alexander’s book “Australian’s Few and the Battle of Britain” is an account of eight Australian fighter pilots, engaged in the Battle of Britain – only one came home…

Transferring to the Royal Air Force, one “officer and gentleman” was fitted for a dress uniform by a Saville Row tailor, who forwarded the sort of account you would expect from Saville Row. The “officer and gentleman” took it to the station adjutants office, borrowed the “officer deceased” stamp. and returned the account, thus endorsed. The tailor was wise to the trick – he had obtained Next of Kin details, and forwarded the account to the father, who paid it..

Only from wiki, but time to belt El Mongo and beg our Doom Lord III deplatforms him.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherman%27s_March_to_the_Sea

… IV. The army will forage liberally on the country during the march. To this end, each brigade commander will organize a good and sufficient foraging party, under the command of one or more discreet officers, who will gather, near the route traveled, corn or forage of any kind, meat of any kind, vegetables, corn-meal, or whatever is needed by the command, aiming at all times to keep in the wagons at least ten day’s provisions for the command and three days’ forage. Soldiers must not enter the dwellings of the inhabitants, or commit any trespass, but during a halt or a camp they may be permitted to gather turnips, apples, and other vegetables, and to drive in stock of their camp. To regular foraging parties must be instructed the gathering of provisions and forage at any distance from the road traveled.

V. To army corps commanders alone is entrusted the power to destroy mills, houses, cotton-gins, &c., and for them this general principle is laid down: In districts and neighborhoods where the army is unmolested no destruction of such property should be permitted; but should guerrillas or bushwhackers molest our march, or should the inhabitants burn bridges, obstruct roads, or otherwise manifest local hostility, then army commanders should order and enforce a devastation more or less relentless according to the measure of such hostility.

VI. As for horses, mules, wagons, &c., belonging to the inhabitants, the cavalry and artillery may appropriate freely and without limit, discriminating, however, between the rich, who are usually hostile, and the poor or industrious, usually neutral or friendly. Foraging parties may also take mules or horses to replace the jaded animals of their trains, or to serve as pack-mules for the regiments or brigades. In all foraging, of whatever kind, the parties engaged will refrain from abusive or threatening language, and may, where the officer in command thinks proper, give written certificates of the facts, but no receipts, and they will endeavor to leave with each family a reasonable portion for their maintenance.

VII. Negroes who are able-bodied and can be of service to the several columns may be taken along, but each army commander will bear in mind that the question of supplies is a very important one and that his first duty is to see to them who bear arms….

—————————————–

A Confederate officer estimated that 10,000 liberated slaves followed Sherman’s army, and hundreds died of “hunger, disease, or exposure” along the way.[21]

Also:

https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/3jxhg4/how_much_civilian_life_was_lost_in_shermans_march/

Surprisingly little. The total casualty count is commonly accepted as around 3,000 but this number includes conflict with militia and military personnel in Georgia and pockets of resistance.

From what I remember the actual civilian casualties numbered around 100. The real damage was done to the city of Atlanta and the Georgian countryside where over 300 miles of railroad tracks were destroyed along with $100 million worth of property. Including a very significant amount of corn, cotton, hay, livestock (cattle and mules), horses and homes.

For what it’s worth, James McPherson in Battle Cry of Freedom gives an approximate total of 50,000 civilian war-related deaths, mostly in the South, as compared to 260,000 Confederate war dead.

Yet El Mongo “conservatively estimates at least” one million liberated slaves died.

The MSM are now going after Christian schools…this tripe from the Daily Telegraph. Perhaps the DT can do an exposure on what Islamic schools teach about homosexuality

“Penrith Christian School tells parents trans identity and same-sex acts not acceptable to God

The school’s “Statement of Faith” ranks same-sex attraction or transgender identity alongside abusive relationships as “behaviours which are not acceptable to God”.

Scott Morrison has flagged changes to his government’s religious discrimination bill to further protect students from being expelled over their sexual orientation or gender identity. It comes after Citipointe Christian College last week sent out a controversial enrolment contract in which parents were asked to confirm that their children would identify only as their birth gender and stated that homosexuality is “sexual immorality” – with those not in agreeance at risk of being excluded from the school. On Thursday, the gender contract was withdrawn with the principal, Brian Mulheran, issuing a statement and apologising on behalf of the college. The Morrison government will be hoping to pass the religious discrimination legislation when parliament resumes next week, before the federal election.

A Sydney school has told parents that being gay or transgender is in the same category as being in an abusive relationship, as part of its enrolment application.

Penrith Christian School tells prospective parents they must declare they have read and understand its “Statement of Faith” and gives them an option to discuss any matter with the school.

That document, dated September 2021, states: “Sexual relationships should be exercised exclusively in a marital relationship between a male and female.

“Adultery, same sex attraction, transgender identity, premarital sex, sexual acts between members of the same sex and abusive relationships, are all examples of relationships and behaviours which are not acceptable to God.”

Principal Tracey Deal wouldn’t answer questions about what that meant in practice at the school and said she could not comment further.

“As all our school policies are currently going through significant review with much change in the last two years, I am not able to comment until they have been through a ratification process with the school board,” she said in an email.

The revelation comes as the federal government said it would change the Sex Discrimination Act to remove provisions which allow schools to discriminate against gay and transgender students.

Trans Advocate Katherine Wolfgramme said schools openly discriminating against students based on their identity was harmful to the pupils’ mental health.

“I went through hell at school, bullied and discriminated against by many fellow students and some teachers,” she said. “So much harm towards individuals has been committed in the name of Christianity but not once did Jesus Christ discriminate against children, in fact it was the opposite.

“I call on church leaders to put aside their personal beliefs and remember the word of Jesus who said ‘suffer the little children to come unto me for they are innocent’ — not once did he say ‘except this one and that one’.”

Deakin University’s Associate Professor in Sociology of Religion Dr Anna Halafoff said the discrimination against gay, lesbian and transgender students was out of line with mainstream values.

She noted in the United States a lot of young people had left Pentecostal churches because their views on sexuality and gender identity were not in line with their own.

“This is the real problem here, how can we live in a society that allows certain views which then harm others. That’s highly problematic and our awareness is increasingly of the importance of human rights when it comes to gender, sexuality, race and religion,” she said.

“There are other more extreme religious practices which are banned by the law (in Australia) and should stay banned by the law.

“One of the great strengths of our multicultural, multifaith society is that diversity is respected as long as it is within the bounds of a common law.

“To me it seems absurd the Morrison Government said before the draft of the current bill they would not allow practices which would discriminate against students but why then allow practices that would discriminate against teachers.”

What does the promotion of adult sexual deviancy have to do with Jesus instructing his disciples to let little children come close to Him? The disciples had shooed them away.

This person is an intellectual wombat. And a twister of scripture, which is worse.

If you don’t like the ethos of the school don’t go there. It’s that simple.

Patted on the head and told to run along and keep educating and nursing and caring for the young and sick and elderly while the adults get on with the really important work.

“The network of Pedos in High Places is so far-reaching that it includes senior members of the police, the judiciary and 93.1% of politicians.

Earlier, JC mentioned that Ed October fondles cats. I know this to be true, because I saw him fondle my neighbour’s cat with a BBQ lighter while he was dressed as a nun*.

It wasn’t my cat. It was my neighbour’s cat, so the cat isn’t my property and I don’t have to make a statement to the jacks with all the worries about perjury should I turn out to be fibbing.

But I can go to the media, as did my neighbour who did make a statement, fibbing or not. And some politicians decided to squeeze the jacks because they are pro-cat and wouldn’t have minded seeing Ed October in the bin anyway. The cat made a self-serving statement through an interpreter painting itself as an innocent victim.

There’s no CCTV footage or other statements to say that Ed didn’t fondle the cat, so Ed is charged with Cat Fondlage and brought to committal amid a storm of interest from Picture magazine.

There’s no requirement for a magistrate to determine if Ed has ‘a case to answer’. Ed doesn’t have to do anything. The prosecution merely has to show that on the evidence admitted into the hearing, that a properly instructed jury could reach a finding of guilt. And on a ‘he-said she-said gig’, there might be.

The magistrate, if he wants the easy out (a la Pell) will commit Ed for trial regardless of Ed’s protestations that he was hunting mutton at the time. The magistrate will think ‘fuck it, I’ll let it through to the keeper and give it to a jury’, thus getting himself out of a lot of grief.

And here we are.

So, Ed the Cat Fondler, who’s going to speak for you in the event you didn’t fondle the cat? Who’s going to white-knight you? See how it works?

*A nasty habit indeed.

The Left currently have their fingers in their ears and are shouting loudly so they can’t hear truth being told by Christians. And so we get the treatment. Paul* said we haven’t resisted to the point of shedding blood. That probably won’t come due to the hangups of these woke-progs, but their hostility is at eleven on the dial.

Ever wonder where those scream-at-the-sky women who couldn’t deal with Trump’s 2016 win went? Me neither. But here they are:

Omicron is still causing chaos in the US, and parents of kids too young to get vaccinated feel left behind

On a freezing cold night, a group of women slowly starts to gather in a mostly empty car park north of Boston.

All of them are mums who, like so many others, have spent the past two years trying to manage the stress, fear and frustrations of trying to raise kids during a pandemic.

As they chat between themselves, laughing nervously, therapist and local mother Sarah Harmon asks them to come together in a circle.

On her cue, they take a deep breath in before screaming at the top of their lungs.

Ummm why would these fucking nutbags be doing this? It’s because they are terrified their under 5s will catch Covid and there isn’t a vaccine available for them. No shit. Skip down to the end…

Sharonda Tack is taking things day by day, cautiously hopeful that vaccines will soon become available to her son.

In the meantime, she could do with finding her own group of women to share some of her frustrations with.

“All you want to do is scream,” she laughed.

“And to have a community who you could scream with would be really nice.”

Okay, these insane hags are pretty hilarious. But what they so desperately want is to offer their very young children up to Big Pharma who will use them as human guinea pigs. When do we have the conversation about child abuse and removing these poor children from their deranged parents?

Peta Credlin: The Aboriginal flag should not be flown above the Harbour Bridge permanently

NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet’s idea to fly the Aboriginal flag above the Sydney Harbour Bridge permanently might fail to generate the goodwill he wants, writes Peta Credlin.

The Sunday Telegraph

I’m all in favour of doing the right thing by Indigenous Australians but NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet is taking generosity of spirit a step too far if he decides to fly the Aboriginal flag permanently on the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

We only have one national flag.

It represents all of us: those whose ancestors were here for tens of thousands of years; and those whose ancestors arrived sometime in the past couple of centuries, or as recently as the last decade.

The Aboriginal flag is just one of quite a few official flags, the state flags and the armed forces flags, for instance, and it doesn’t even represent all of Australia’s Indigenous people.

Torres Strait Islanders have their own flag. So quite apart from giving a flag representing about three per cent of us the same status as the national flag, by flying the two of them permanently alongside each other on our biggest city’s most prominent landmark, it might fail to generate the goodwill the Premier plainly wants.

Indeed it’s divisive.

I’ve no issue with it flying high on prominent Indigenous dates but not every day because it doesn’t represent everybody.

Given the national flag is a Commonwealth issue, Dominic Perrottet has got to rethink this one.

At the next election ( state ) put it to the voters. If we have in NSW 2% of our population identify themselves as indigenous you might get 1% in favour. what about the other 99% don’t they count funny majority rule only applies when it suits you ( politicians )

Very divisive decision from a political hack who is out of touch and using it for his own political purposes… election coming up?, Albo has said he wants Aboriginal and TS islander recognition in the constitution when he gets in another divisive thought creating racial division and raising one race over the rest … racism at its worst. If I was a Aboriginal it TS islander et al I would resist this with all my might … I would want equal status not special status over other races and cultures… our political Class are not stupid but are certainly not wise.

So here’s an article on how surfing is scored. Pretty subjective, still can’t see how it is a competitive sport.
JC is was a surfer for about 6 years in the late 1960’s-70. Tell us about your surfing experience.

I surfed from about 13 to my early 20s. You required a wetsuit because Victorian water is very cold. A dude up the street who was a few years older took me with him and taught me.

You’re the Toowoomba kid, so you ought to be telling us how it’s done, Hallward. You pretty much inform us mere mortals of everything else. I notice both you and the incelized imbecile aren’t that sciency these days. What happened? 🙂 Was it something I said?

Thanks for pointing out just how subjective the scoring is in surfing and why it’s really a fun pastime but not a competitive sport.

There hasn’t been a bigger misreading of the ball out of the hand since Warney knocked over Mike Gatting in 1993.
CA thought that they could background journos about what a horrid chap Langer was, and how his 1980’s management style just wasn’t appropriate.
All-australian boy Pat was to give a few off the record examples of how horrid it was to be paid $800k per annum and be expected to actually perform.
I reckon a few friendlies in the media had the hatchet jobs ready to go, but they have binned them when they saw the reaction from ex-players.
This is decidedly not how the plan developed by the PR ponytails for CA was meant to play out.
And they have no idea why.

Anyone thinking that the UAP and the LDP are any chance of gaining enough votes to knock out the unipardee (in either house) is, to put it bluntly, dreaming.

Our political system is a dead parrot pining for some non existent fjords, while lacking any beautiful plumage.

Could Australia learn from Singapore to make housing more affordable?

I’m kind of agnostic on the idea – it could work, it could be a disaster, depends on implementation – but what do the ‘experts’ think is the big challenge facing the proposition?

I’m not quite sure there’s enough land sitting there to make this thing work

And

The challenge comes down to land. Singapore’s government does own 90 per cent of the land in Singapore, our governments own substantially less

Seriously? It couldn’t work here because there isn’t enough *land* or government-owned land, but in Singers there is plenty??? My goodness. If there is one thing we have an abundance of, it’s land. Yes, even government-owned land. If our government urban planners dispensed with their irrational obsessions about preventing ‘urban sprawl’ and ensuring vast swathes of ‘green space’, there is an abundance of land to build on.

It won’t work here because the real estate lobby group is so powerful they will fight it tooth and nail. Additionally many politicians have investment properties so they will be loathe to introduce something that can lower housing values and rents.

John H, I agree that it would sink on launching here due to vested interests.
It creates a two-tier market which would quickly equalise between the two sectors.
They could dampen this by creating a notional land value which must be repaid if the scheme participants sell.
This value could diminish by, say, 5% per annum until it reaches zero after twenty years.

Let me just add the following…

1. I’ve never judged Barnaby over his affair with Vikki. We live in a time when (sadly) many marriages break down….by all accounts Joyce and his wife had been living separate lives for a long time. I don’t judge marital situations.

2. I didn’t approve of the Sharri Markson Daily Telegraph scoop re. Barnaby and Vikki. I thought it was disgraceful journalism and the picture of the heavily pregnant Vikk on the front page was gutter journalism. For better or worse we’ve always had a code here in Oz where the private lives of politicians remain….private. The MSM ignored the married Bill Shorten’s affair with the married Chloe……she became pregnant with Shorten’s child whilst still married to the architect Rupert Parkin. The MSM ignored the affair of that anti-Semite, Tony Burqa (he’s now shacked up with his Green activist girlfriend). There was zero outrage in the MSM about Burqa, no outrage about Shorten. It was “nothing to see here”…..and I could go on and on and on.

3. Even tonight on Sky, Skanki Markson, dripping in eastern suburbs sanctimony, was opining on about what a hypocrite Barnaby was for not supporting SSM whilst at the same being unfaithful to his wife. Markson is a dumb bimbo fuckwit…capable of some good journalism at times but she’s also completely embedded in the progressive narrative…particularly when it comes to SSM. She fails to realise that Barnaby’s opinion on SSM had nothing to do with his infidelity. Markson clearly knows nothing of Jewish or Christian theology. Human beings sin, they transgress….that’s the human condition.

4. I supported Joyce taking over from McCormack. I thought McCormack to be ineffectual….a nice decent bloke but lacking any cut through so, I was glad when Barnaby took over…but since then I’ve been terribly disappointed with him, particularly over his complete capitulation with net zero emission. Barnaby and the Nationals should have walked or, they should have insisted on the nuclear energy option…..they didn’t.

5. I don’t judge texts….I’ve written things in texts that aren’t particularly nice….but, but, but I’m not a politician trying to be deputy PM of this country again. I remain absolutely staggered that Barnaby sent such a text re. Morrison to Miss Brittaneeeee. From the beginning I’ve suspected that the whole Miss Brittaneeeeeee musical is all about cheap politics……Miss Brittaneeeeee and her cohorts are out to destroy the coalition ….egged on by Cane Toad Wilkinson and the scum at The Project, egged on by her partner and egged on by progressive MSM scum. And yet Barnaby sent a expletive ridden text to Miss Brittaneeeeeee which says to me that not only isn’t he a good judge of character, he’s a fool.

As for Cardi, I’ve always liked him but that won’t stop me criticising Barnaby.
