The weeping on twitter over indoor masks going is bizarre.
Guys, you can still wear them if you want to.
You just can’t make others wear them under the threat of violence or fines from the plod.
QR checkin and masks should go NOW, not on the 25th.
What magical thinking has it out until next week?

But what’s not to luv about BAT FLU .. the only known illness that operates to timetables put out by troughers .. LOL!
Exactly! If you want to be a paranoid hypochondriac go ahead and fill your boots, just don’t force me to do it too.
Besides, I know from personal experience that masks do not work, having caught the spicy cough on a plane whilst having to wear a mask.

An entirely different thing.
Since forever they’ve been required to report suspicious* deposits/withdrawals exceeding $10,000 in cash (i.e. actual folding notes)
This is not the same as asking ID before they’ll allow you to deposit into your own bank account.
*They tag a cash transaction as “suspicious” or “routine” coz there are a helluva lot of deposits or withdrawals of more than $10,000 in cash as a routine part of business.

I don’t know when nor why the present Adelaide bashing started, I haven’t read upthread, but there’s more signs of sanity prevailing in South Australia at the moment than anywhere else in Australia. The South Australian Police Union has called for an end to the mandates, no other state police unions are speaking out for their members, and the Adelaide University has abandoned vaxx mandates.
Looking around Australia at the moment, the most sane place is South Australia.

Up thread somebody linked about CDC using DNA from Covid tests.
Gateway Pundit has two articles about this currently.
Google BGI (Beijing Geonomics Institute) and you will find :
Australian HQ in Brisbane.
Articles by the Guardian Oz and 2 by Reuters about them and many more from USA.
BGI provided the Covid test kits brought in by Twiggy Forrest mid 2020.
BGI provides testing machines to 11 labs in Oz. This has apparently been OK’d by Australian intelligence agencies.
60 Minutes USA had a show in late January 2021 where high ranking intelligence official was pointing out had advised some states not to take up offer of Covid assistance by BGI. Reason being they were harvesting DNA (see Reuters articles for in depth comment about how the DNA can be used).
Some may have seen the Cairns News article about the father, Henry, of a certain Premier. Popped up in China in September 2019 as Chairman and Founder of something called the GTA Foundation. Their area of interest ? DNA collection and storage. Supposed to become a trillion dollar industry. No idea if the article is true but certainly interesting and never been mentioned in mainstream media.
Some may have seen articles about meeting with Macron and Putin a few days ago. Seems the Russians wanted to test him but French said no and ones of the reasons was did not want them to get his DNA.
You will never guess which famous billionaires foundation has partly funded BGI since 2012. Or which was the first state BGI tried to set up Covid testing in USA? Seattle is a clue to both.

The thing boomers reminiscing about their near shark-free childhoods in the east coast Australian ocean miss is shark fishing has essentially been banned for 20 years. Their numbers are increasing rapidly and attacks will continue to increase and Australians will leave the water and go back to being frightened over entering the ocean as we were in the 18th century pre-mass fishing days.
Dolphins are arseholes. And they know it, too…

I have a book of letters from the colony and very early on convicts and settlers were told not to bathe in in the bay because of sharks.
So then we spent 200 years killing them all, that’s why we can go freely swimming on much of the east coast of Australia now.

Correct….but Greenies prefer sharks to humans. They’re probably celebrating on twitter the latest shark attack.
I would be on board with a program that refused crocodiles, sharks and snakes access to areas populated by humans.
Dan Xi Man could make rules for this!

There’s a good reason he’s gone quiet, and it’s not because the Communist-Nazi-Globalist-Pooftah-Pansies have silenced him by turning his frogs gay, poisoning his gypsum, hiding an LRAD in his bedroom cupboard or binging his bongs.

I went to one of the Sydney marches and was as tolerant as I could be when people were told to chant “Always was, always will be”, walk through ceremonial smoke, listen to some inane rambling that may well have been about pedos – while every person who turned up to protest wore shirts and carried placards about not wanting to be forcibly vaccinated. And flags.
The speakers, at least for the first few hours, had nothing to do with the audience.
Haven defended sharkies up above, I will add that if humans want to swim in the oceans, then I have no problem with drum lines or other means of reducing the local shark population.

Once they’ve secured a few more years in power they seem to really go to town. Beware this coming election!

We have developed lumpy brains to such an extent we are capable of killing things not only that prevent us eating or rooting, but that prevent recreation.
And so we should. If Noah’s Arks want to start culling humans, they can start by growing opposable thumbs. Screw those guys.

Obviously this doesn’t mean that sharks are attacking during the night : daylight attacks when it’s around full moon in the lunar cycle.
It was full moon last night.
So the researchers (University of Florida ?) have another statistic to add to their data.

Had what developed into a “heated” discussion with one of my wife’s friends yesterday over a very similar theme.
She contends (and she’s serious):
• Humans are alien to this planet because every other form of life gives back something to the planet while we only take from the planet.
• Animal and plant life is sacred, but we desperately need to start culling humans. Reintroduction of the death penalty for all anti-greenies would be a good start.
• Governments should have made vaccinations mandatory from the very start. If some people died of the side effects, that would be a good thing.
• Nearly everyone in Africa should be sterilised, by force if necessary.
Overpopulation being her favourite hobby-horse, the talk swung around to what humans will be eating in the future. My wife commented that insects might figure highly, and that we had tried some food made with insect “flour” when we were in Vietnam.
“And how were those insects killed?” the friend asked. “Murdered I bet.”
“Who gives a f**k (or words to that effect)”, I said. “They’re insects for f**k’s sake (or words to that effect). They have no recognition of self, and it’s highly unlikely they’re even capable of feeling pain.”
“So what?” she replied. “They still have feelings you know. They have as much right to live as we do.”
I think my jaw may have dropped at that stage, because my wife jumped in and changed the subject.
I wonder if subs have banged into whales out at sea…. (obviously not on land).
I’d be happy to vote for PHON, but their ability to execute any policy is limited. They’ll never be in government. I do vote for Latham in the upper house anyway, and if they got their preselections sorted so they have good candidates instead of flaky chancers that could expand considerably.
There’s no chance the Libs will do as I asked above and resume Liddell, Bayswater and Eraring, so my offer to vote for them will fall flat.

Harsh, fair and 1000% true.
Someone here recently linked to some Yankee article discussing the amount of popular agreement, with general government policy, required to avoid revolution.. something like 95 or 99%.
But elections run on 51% majority rule, smoothing the road for abuses of power..
eg. Hitler won his chancellorship with only 37% of the vote in November 1932, and the rest is history.
With the tried and tested 2PP gerrymandering in Australia, SFLs and Liars get away with ruling with only 30-35% of primary votes, thus leading to Uniparty-like contempt for the stupid proles.
I used to tell people at work about the 29-30% actual support for the RGR train-wreck and how idiotic our electoral system is… blank looks and zero understanding to a man/woman present.. NFI!

You know, it might come as a shock to some people here but it could be that many, even most people don’t have a problem with getting vaccinated, got vaccinated with their eyes wide open regarding vaccine side effects and don’t spend their days ranting and raving about nwo and great resets.
And unlike Australians most people in Italy, France and Spain, as well as no doubt anyone anywhere except Australia (and New Zealand) have had the unwanted experience of knowing one to many people who’ve been very sick or died with or from covid.
And now covid has mutated to a mostly mild variant and people, quite rightly want an end, and they are getting that.
For the spluttering hobgoblins, this is no doubt, a sad disappointment.

And my old dad looked like he was experiencing myo when I saw him a couple weeks ago, his booster was a week before. Chest pains. He waved it off. I told him see his GP and ask about heart inflammation.
These vax nazis need to be held to account.
I’m a big fan.
Sadly it’s getting harder to find. My local chippie has stopped serving it; they tell me demand has dropped off because nobody is fooled by the bland marketing name any more.
Actually, she would be perfectly happy to be “put down” to save the animals and the planet. Perfectly happy.

For two years #Tyranny has ridden on a wave of Covid. That pretext is no longer viable nor necessary. Tyranny is now forging ahead under its own power. If you’re still preoccupied with Covid, it’s time to shift focus. This is far more dangerous.

Bret isn’t stupid, although his TDS caused widespread neuronal short-circuiting in 2020.
Once again, the Cat was Light-Years ahead of the curve.
Only until the ’emergency’ ends. No one is going to mandate it, as they will be sued when someone gets injured from these poisons.
I am surprised to see you say that, Rosie. We are all very aware of the general opinion of the “vaccines” in Oz – that is very clear from two years of posts. The brilliance of the internet has also made apparent international opinion.
The “ranting and raving” that may take place here are genuine and pressing concerns about the astonishing transformation of the status of personal liberty that has occurred in such a short period in Australia and elsewhere in the western world.
Nothing stopping her doing this to herself.
I’m sure they don’t, otherwise there would have been a world wide revolt.
I have a problem with coercion. A big problem. Also with lying to make populations fearful.
I have a problem also with lockdowns, forced business closures and police thuggery. Also making people wear stupid masks on their faces, especially children.
This is more, much much more than vaccination. Well, what currently passes for vaccination. Which isn’t really but that’s another story.
And this is how it starts. Ukraine on a public holiday in defiance of Russia today… still early there but most predictions were that war would start today…
This was followed by a declaration that if caught, the naughty shark would be tagged and ‘taken further out to sea’.
Read some years ago about a croc tagged near Darwin. It was tracked as far away as north of Timor.
Ok karen.
7,000 more Russian troops arrived in the last 24 hours…
Something like this could just put a crimp in your entire day!
Is there anything that needs to be inferred from the honorific.
Took off like the Hunchback’s vaccine economy.
And Grigory.
You know, it might come as a shock to some people here but it could be that many, even most people don’t have a problem with getting vaccinated
If it’s their choice and their choice alone then there’s nothing wrong with that you bloody Mong!
Read yesterday’s The Australian.

I know there are Powerline blog and Week in Pictures fans here.

Barry is a lemur, Delta. A. Lemur.
Don’t let him hear you say that. He gets angry enough as it is, although I’m sure it is my fault on some level.
If only I had made the bed earlier, or put his favourite Wednesday dressing gown out before he got back from poker, instead of after he got home which made him ask for it. Then I walked into a cupboard.
Bret Weinstein has tweeted this in the last 24 hours, as he contemplates, like all of us, the closure of private bank accounts and other measures of tyranny in Canada.
Canada’s getting pretty close to that point where the shooting starts and suddenly the fucking politicians and police realise how badly outnumbered and outgunned they are.
LEMUR, Delta.
Barry is a lemur.
Gibbons are funky.
Lemurs are…um…interesting.
Justin Trudeau’s Justice Minister, David Lametti on Wednesday said that being pro-Trump is a factor that will decide if your bank account is seized or frozen under Trudeau’s Emergency Orders.

(From Big Sky Publishing…) Aviation Museum needs government funding for air-con, says Historian
One of the nation’s leading military historians has called on the federal and Northern Territory governments to fund the air-conditioning of an aviation museum – to best preserve the first enemy fighter shot down over Australian soil.
Australia Remembers 4: the Bombing of Darwin (Big Sky Publishing) is being launched by Brian Winspear, 101 year old RAAF veteran of the first air raid, at the Darwin Aviation Museum, on 17 February.
Author Dr Tom Lewis OAM said:
“This world-class museum houses not only the fantastic B-52, an F-111, and many more fascinating aircraft, but it’s home to the remains of one of the first Zero fighters shot down in World War II. It was an intelligence bonanza for the Allies, but not only that – it was flown by the first Japanese prisoner taken in The Australian region; Hajime Toyoshima, who went on to be one of the leaders of the Cowra Prisoner Of War breakout. This unique piece of history should be housed in air-conditioning to preserve it for future generations, and I call on the Territory and Federal Governments to make that a reality by jointly funding the project.”
Brian was a Hudson bomber air gunner. He was in the last Hudson out of the islands of what’s now Indonesia and Timor in the north, landing very much overloaded with our people fleeing the advancing Japanese. Six hours after landing at 4am on 19 February 1942 he was under attack at the Darwin airfields.
Dr Lewis’s book is aimed especially at upper primary and lower secondary school students. It is in full colour, and features “Did you know?” boxes; “Curious Facts” and a range of activities.
Another WWII veteran commented on the work. The Honourable Austin Asche AC QC is a former Administrator of the Northern Territory of Australia and was the third Chief Justice of the Territory’s Supreme Court. He served in radar units in the Royal Australian Air Force in World War II. Austin said:
“This is a detailed and carefully researched account of enemy attacks on Australian territory during the Second World War. The theme is clearly presented with appropriate maps, pictures and commentary. It should be read by every Australian.”
Dr Lewis’s book is available in numerous bookstores and online from Big Sky Publishing.
Should be subtitled: “The book to educate your children and grandchildren about the history they don’t learn enough of in our schools.”
Show the Court on the Supermarket where the nasty union man fondled your avocados, Grigory…
IMO the push for abortion on demand was very much a result of this mindset whether or not its proponents would admit it or not.
The original proponents of abortion were keen eugenicists, who wanted (to borrow a phrase) to reduce what they regarded as “lives unworthy of life”. Iirc, not many years before her death, the sainted RBG hinted strongly that blacks remained a prime target group.
Used to swear by it when I lived in Adelaide in a previous life. But it’s not as good as the recently invented Coopers Mild/Mid-strength with 3.5-4% alc/vol versus around 6% for Sparkling Ale, which gets you poo-faced after two or three stubbies.
Cooper Mid/Mild is so good even sheilias can enjoy it.
Inebriated, slutty squirrel meets randy racoon. Result: one lemur.
We’re in this entire mess because selfish old woman individuals like notafan, personally, spent 2020 and 2021 – herself personally and relentlessly posting tens of thousands of soporific shit-posts crowding out and chloroforming any attempt to get people to see what everyone – even 2GB, is
Fuck off blockquote!
When do you reckon she died, then, because that comment dates back at least 30 years.
You’d be on firmer ground if you’d said that Ginsberg never employed a black staffer during her 65+ years on the Public teat.

Actually, she would be perfectly happy to be “put down” to save the animals and the planet. Perfectly happy.
Why doesn’t she take the initiative herself? Possibly because she is contemplating a theoretical concept, not actual action.
Ms Chant in a G-string
Please stop posting this sentence. There’s only so many times you can scroll past this before it starts working on you mental imagery and you inevitably throw up.
As a diehard fan of traditional Brit (and good US) mystery shows and movies, I am finding it harder and harder to discover anything rewarding. Almost every single one since about the 1980s has a villanous property developer or promoter of gene technology or exploiter of refugees or chemical company or drug company or some other corporation as the baddies.
In every one of them, somebody makes an impassioned speech about how seeking profit is bad, inequality is bad, and we all need to fight against it.
Apart from the obvious ideological overtones, it is really boring. You know from the start who is who and what is going to happen.
No wonder I am looking more and more at older fillums, which allow for a bit of ambiguity.

You are happy with bodily autonomy being ceded for rational, sane people on government say so?
Less than 5 years to go from this.
Human Rights Commissioner: Bodily autonomy is basic human right
(a report on intersex children. Ie: those kids born what used to be called hermaphrodite, and the position is sound I think)
To this shit.
COVID-19 reports
The Commission has developed reports on COVID-19 human rights related issues, including:
Management of COVID-19 risks in immigration detention (2021)
Guidelines on the rights of people with disability in health and disability care during COVID-19
Impacts of COVID-19 on children and young people who contact Kids Helpline.
Our usual work continues
The Commission has also continued its usual work throughout COVID-19, with several major projects, including:
an Independent Review into Commonwealth Parliamentary Workplaces
an independent review of Gymnastics in Australia
the Human Rights and Technology final report
developing a National Anti-Racism Framework
a nationwide elder abuse awareness campaign.
When they declare ‘climate emergency” and backdate penalties for anyone outside the “essential” having flown you will be fine with that because daddy government says so.

NBN Chanel 9 reporting on the Eraring closure. Much concern over the loss of jobs; nil concern over the loss of electricity. I guess reality will hit one day, but not just yet.
I’m thinking it might be fun to patrol offshore of our beaches with fixed wing drones. When a shark is found drop small depth charges on them.
This would be a job people would pay to be allowed to do.
Dick Ed
When do you reckon she died, then, because that comment dates back at least 30 years.
You must be very young and naive Dick. Compared to her age at death, 30 years is not long.
The reports of Trudeau’s threat to seize kids have to be bulltish.
Don’t they??
Yes.
A very ordinary town seven days a week.
But particularly drab on Tuesdays.
I’m thinking it might be fun to patrol offshore of our beaches with fixed wing drones. When a shark is found drop small depth charges on them.

The drones are scale Grumman Avengers! You have a choice of torpedo or depth charge.
Have to admit, this isn’t always the case for me.
16 yo granddaughter loves murder/mysteries and we binge on Midsomer or similar whenever she has a sleepover. She always picks the villain and although she’s kind enough to high five when all is exposed, as though we sussed it out together, my success score is still nil.
But the rest of your comment is accurate: too many shows degenerate into lefty BS – looking at you, old Barnaby – which makes them unwatchable.
Thank goodness for Poiret!

Russian backed rebels have said Ukraine over meant forces have fired mortar shells in four locations on the territory held by them on Thursday , according to reports from Kremlin.
And this is how it starts. Ukraine on a public holiday in defiance of Russia today… still early there but most predictions were that war would start today…
Has no one tweaked that in this age of ubiquitous mobiles and kitty videos, not a single sausage of real evidence exists?
The Ukrainian President reporting no evidence of Russian troops build-up..
No chance of military success by Putin, if he were to try a conventional arms invasion, for he’s not stupid, or dementing. Forget the nuclear option.
So why would anyone believe the putrid, lying MSM and the putrid, lying Bidet WH?
All the MSM ever does is fear porn. Their business model desperately relies on it, and the mugs still believe this unadulterated BS, because archi-encephalon.
I’ll make a prediction on a long, distant limb:
There will be no invasion of Ukraine, while we are being told by scummy MSM that there will be.
There will be no invasion of Taiwan, same proviso.
If any of these events occur, it won’t be under the current political climate.
oops.. unfortunate programming.
Jaws on the idiot box tonight in Sydney.
“There will be no invasion of Ukraine, while we are being told by scummy MSM that there will be.
Correct.
There will be no invasion of Taiwan, same proviso.
Wrong. China will invade Taiwan.
One take…
Biden isn’t about to fight Russia. But the fake tensions provide a distraction, however limited, from the price of gas, the mandatory face masks, and the rising murder rates in major cities. And when this farce wraps up, Biden will claim credit for preventing a war that never was.
Cassie, dear, I much prefer Gilas’ predictions.
NSW Libs back federal intervention.
We’re not as bad as Victoristan, but factional foolery has taken its toll.
I tend to agree with Cassie than Gilas… China already “tried it on” when claiming US troops in Taiwan was an invasion of their lands… I trust Putin more than XingPung.

The US has become so divided and weakened with a marxist/mafia government essentially owned by the ChiComs. So I wouldn’t put it past the CCP to have a go at Taiwan. All those chip factories.
The American government is anti American.

If Putin sends his army into the Ukraine, the sanctions will hit Russia hard.
When China sends its army into Taiwan, it won’t be subjected to any sanctions….China rules the globe. China faced zero opprobrium for the virus that it sent out to the world.
