A hint for Wordle fans. After Biden’s SOTU address the word ‘gaffe’ has been disappeared. Don’t bother with it.
I like how Nancy’s body is controlled by wires – you can see her winding them with her wrists and then her body rises.
Very wisely does not rely upon her coordination and sense of balance to stand, but has had that function replaced by mechanics.
“Very wisely does not rely upon her coordination and sense of balance to stand…”
They’ve both been upset by so many face lifts that if she stands too quickly, here naval will appear at her neckline….
I missed the grub’s SOU speech. Did anything happen: did pelosi tear anything up, joe crap his pants or start smelling some poor bastard’s hair?
Britain’s and spies are being urged to consider their ‘white privilege’ and declare their pronouns as Europe descends into war.
A leaked guide to improving diversity and inclusion in the security services suggests the agents should avoid gendered terms such as ‘manpower’.
Spies are also advised against such words as ‘strong’ and ‘grip’ which can ‘reinforce dominant cultural patterns’. And they are encouraged not to speak on all-male panels.
In the document – entitled Mission Critical – the chiefs of MI5, MI6 and GCHQ extol the virtues of diversity and inclusion, saying both are vital in keeping the country safe.
But the paper has caused disquiet in other areas of government, with critics saying security officials should have been less focused on inclusion and more alert to events in Afghanistan and Ukraine.
Mission Critical was written by Sir Stephen Lovegrove, the national security adviser, in October and published internally on December 6 – days after Ukraine warned of large-scale escalation by Russia.
In his foreword, Sir Stephen said: ‘This toolkit is called Mission Critical because a diverse and inclusive culture is critical to succeeding in our national security missions.’
But a government source said: ‘There will be times where our security services have to kill the enemies who wish us ill.
‘A culture where ‘manpower’ is offensive and where pronouns and ‘privilege’ are promulgated is far removed from the deadly decisions spooks often need to take.’
The diversity toolkit is intended to be read by officials at GCHQ, MI5 and MI6, as well as in the Office for Security and Counter Terrorism in the Home Office and by the national security secretariat.
In the document, a Muslim worker praises her employer for allowing her not to shake hands with men because this is in line with her religious beliefs on modesty.
And a female civil servant at the Ministry of Defence claims she felt ‘humiliation’ when she started working there as ‘new girls had to earn their place in the team’. She said the ‘workplace culture failed us’.
The toolkit says staff should ‘understand your unconscious bias’, ‘be aware of intersectionality [the idea that different forms of prejudice can overlap]’, ‘acknowledge your privilege’ and consider refusing to speak on all-male panels.
It urges national security staff to declare their pronouns – to be referred to as ‘he’, ‘she’, ‘they’ or something else – to make transgender colleagues feel more included.
‘Sharing your pronouns, if you are comfortable doing this, helps to create an environment in which this is normal,’ it said.
‘You can do this by: adding your pronouns to your email signature or sharing them at the start of a slidepack.’
In a section on inclusive language, it says: ‘In national security, look out for words and phrases, such as ‘strong’ or ‘grip’, that reinforce the dominant cultural patterns. Avoid jargon, hierarchy or gender biases.’
Another section said: ‘Consider the impact of phrases that can have negative connotations or dehumanise others.
‘Try not to define an individual or group by what makes them different. If you need to talk about an individual or group, choose adjectives over nouns.
‘Instead of ‘Asians’, try ‘Asian people’, ‘people of Asian heritage’ or specify a region or country. Instead of ‘the disabled’, try ‘people with disabilities’ and ‘people with mental health conditions’ over ‘the mentally ill’.
‘Use gender neutral language to reflect people’s diversity and reduce stereotypes and assumptions, for example about job roles and functions which need not be gender defined.’
The document encourages staff to read a range of books on equality issues, including those by controversial critical race theorist Kimberle Crenshaw.
A Whitehall spokesman said the report was written in October, although it was not published until December.
He said diversity and integration would be integrated into mainstream core training and leadership modules.
‘They are fundamental to the national security of the UK,’ the spokesman added. ‘That includes having people from different backgrounds, perspectives and ways of thinking.’
One can hope.
As for Ukraine, looking at the maps I have a sneaking feeling there’s quite a few generals in NATO quietly shitting themselves. Going by where there’s been fighting reported, it sounds like Russia has either taken, neutralized or surrounded everything that matters east of the Dnieper River. Though that’s got the caveat of everything being so hard to confirm.
Nothing anybody found unexpected.

Declaring your pronouns will be mandatory in the future. If you don’t, you’re a Nazi, homophobe, transphobe, white privilege Trump supporter and will have your bank accounts frozen.
Oh yeah??? Says it all. But there again, life is so damn “on its head” these days…. what seems obvious to me, is mysterious to others.
Had a house guest at farm a few days ago….told him we had to watch “Outsiders” as it is compulsory viewing in our household on Sunday morning. He just sat there poker faced the whole time as we rolled about in stitches.
Wrong politics. Turns people’s world view on opposite polarity.
That Iranian (hat tip Joe) … sorry, Russian convoy in the Ukraine, is a long line of sitting ducks for anyone having a few Warthog ground attack planes or ground attack Helos.
I’m guessing that the number of times the location of this Russian convoy and possible consequences have been aired over the past few hours and nothing untoward has happened to it might suggest that either there is no, feasible, deterrent available, Ukraine recc isn’t up to scratch or it has a sight more protection than is being credited …
then again, being “Iranian” it might, just might be carrying aid for the beleaguered folk .. LOL!
Seems Cassie is calling herself an “it”, in a desperate attempt to denounce me of yet another of her made up “ism’s” –

– was a sign of the beginning of the end of the old cat many moons ago, when women started to gather and fell straight into their Mean Girl role of publicly declaring who was and wasn’t One Of Them, because you know people can’t make their own observations & come to their own conclusions.
Me Tooism! is a deadly disease.
It’s herded millions of innocents to their deaths rather than risk being ostracised by the wrath of the women.
______________
Yet Cassie cuts out the whole substance of the post & the point being made (without any indicator that she’s done so because she knows she’s trying to build another strawman out of chaff), so she she could TELL OTHERS TO BE “disgusted” at me for reminding other not to allow themselves to be herded by public social pressure, especially from anonymous, online “ladies”.

And you Cassie, are sad.
Sorry, there’s not really a link. It’s more looking at a map, and putting together where fighting has been reported by more reliable sources like ASB news on twitter in conjunction with maps of the locations of forces.
Like I said, there’s the caveat of it’s hard to find concrete information, but if there’s fighting in Kahkiv and reports of Russian forces near Poltava, coupled with Kiev nearly surrounded, the coast being in Russian hands bar some of the cities and that doesn’t leave much significant.
Supposedly a huge number of the Ukranian forces more or less trapped near the two republics.
So yeah, some basic sleuth work I’m finding it very hard to take the media seriously.

Slavs happened.
And in this blog’s mad rush to condemn debbil-debbil NATOists and Euro oligarchs and
perfidious American globalists and all the assorted Western public figures nobody really likes any more after 2 years of Covid fuckery, they forgot that Slavic nations and subgroupings all have their own agendas. Many of them annihilation-level violent against their own old enemies.
In a Slav-fight, you do not pick sides and dig in. You bomb the lot and make strenuous efforts to keep them apart (Remember Serbia and then Kosovo?), or you get the hell out of the way and let them burn their lethal enthusiasms out themselves.
Instead, you have all assigned Ukraine the status of proxy amd scapegoat for the sins (both real and imagined) of the people who deposed Donald Trump and panicked us all into 2 years of social derangement and economic crisis.
They did not deserve that. Neither did we.

Zach Rolfe trial: Zach Rolfe takes the stand for alleged murder of Kumanjayi Walker
JASON WALLS CHIEF COURT REPORTER
NT NEWS
ZACH Rolfe has taken the stand in his trial for the alleged murder of Kumanjayi Walker, telling jurors he was trained by NT Police to respond to the threat of an edged weapon by drawing his gun and being “prepared to pull the trigger”.
Rolfe has pleaded not guilty to all charges and took the stand in the Supreme Court on Wednesday after Crown prosecutor, Philip Strickland SC, closed the case against him over the fatal shooting in Yuendumu in 2019.
His barrister, David Edwardson QC, asked the formerly Alice Springs based constable what he learned the term “knife equals gun” meant in the course of his police training.
“The way I was trained was, if we were presented, if someone is threatening us with an edged weapon, our first response was to go for our firearm unless that was impossible,” he said.
“You only draw your firearm if you’re prepared to pull the trigger.”
Rolfe said in a situation where an alleged offender presented an edged weapon, he was trained to draw his Glock to provide “lethal cover” and then “go from there”.
“If you had distance, you pull your weapon and you had lethal cover, you then had time to assess to see if there’s a difference, if the offender reacts differently, if you don’t have the distance or time then you don’t have the ability to cause that change,” he said.
“If the offender’s on top of you, you can’t assess the situation, or, you can assess the situation but you can’t so much utilise that distance.
“You aren’t always given the benefit of the distance in that situation.”
Rolfe said he was also trained in the use of a “shove and shoot” technique in response to an attack by a person armed with an edged weapon.
“They would attempt to strike us, we were drilled to defend ourselves with our non-dominant arm, with our dominant arm, draw our Glock and simulate firing rounds into the centre of mass of the assailant,” he said.
“The training was always you shoot until the threat is incapacitated no matter how many rounds that takes.”
Rolfe told the court he had watched body-worn camera footage of an incident from three days before the shooting in which Kumanjayi Walker threatened police with an axe, saying he felt it was “being swept under the rug”.

“It seemed that this was the kind of incident that we should all be alerted to,” he said.
“It’s known that people from Yuendumu and Alice Springs generally go between fairly often so this offender was potentially a risk to Alice Springs (police) members.
“I asked (shift sergeant Evan Kelly) to come watch the videos and we had a discussion about it and he agreed that the incident should have been relayed up the chain of command and a higher response should already have been organised.”
Rolfe said he had looked up Mr Walker’s history on the police record system and discovered he had “a very extensive criminal history” including “violence against women and violence against police”.
“I characterised him as a high risk offender, extremely violent, who was willing to use potentially lethal weapons against police,” he said.
Rolfe said he was later called up for an Immediate Response Team call-out on the day of the shooting by officer in charge, Shane McCormack, “to travel to Yuendumu to arrest (Kumanjayi) Walker”.
“I asked him specifically what our mission was, I asked him twice, and he confirmed it was to arrest Kumanjayi Walker,” he said.
Rolfe said he then drove to Yuendumu with Constable James Kirstenfeldt, arriving about 7pm, saying he could recall the pair having a conversation “about the mission”.
“We were obviously aware that the mission was to arrest Walker,” he said.
“The only comment that I can recall myself making is that we should have been sent out earlier, as in days earlier, not hours earlier.”
The trial continues on Thursday when Rolfe will continue his evidence before he is cross examined by Crown prosecutor Philip Strickland SC.

My own view lines up with Putin. I want a multi polar world. I don’t want a world dominated only by the US and their woke BS.
Oh look, it’s the bar troll.
Yea the bet… “Oh oh hoh, I had 4 ATO audits in one year and one of them was no longer functional”. You fraud, Driller.
I’d still like to bet on that with my conditions. You were never serious because you were caught blowharding again. Blowharding and toppering.
There’s no bet, because the incel was saying years ago that battery technology had reached the limits of technology. That was when Teslas were achieving 230 miles. One model is now cruising 424 miles per charge. “The scientist” fucked that one up too.
I challenged you to a bet on my reasonable conditions and you walked. Walked like the dishonest redneck fraud you’ve always been. Now trying to pretend otherwise. You never had 4 audits in a year otherwise provide the evidence by placing all four individual ATO request on your (unread) blog, Driller. Let the readership see them.

Razey, end of the day I reckon Putin is not a pleasant man, but he’s smart and ruthless and has play his hands very well. Exactly the sort you need as a leader. For all that though, he’s still constrained in the Ukraine by the same dictates of geography and politics as every leader of Russia for hundreds of years. Someone else would be forced to make much the same decisions.
Unfortunately you can’t make that point with most people, especially now.

Shortly before the shooting, Zimmerman called the police, and the conversation was recorded. According to the Times’ edited audio, Zimmerman told the police:
This guy looks like he’s up to no good, or he’s on drugs or something. He looks black.
In reality, however, the following discussion took place, with the words in bold removed by the Times:
Zimmerman: “This guy looks like he’s up to no good. Or he’s on drugs or something. It’s raining and he’s just walking around, looking about.”
Police Dispatcher: “OK, and this guy—is he white, black, Hispanic?”
Zimmerman: “He looks black.”
Take drive in google along the Russian roads from the Ukraine border to Moscow. It’s flat as a pancake with little to no natural defensive positions. I can 100% understand why Russia is extremely nervous. They lost 27 million fighting Nazi’s and this has left a definite cultural memory. The West should step outside their echo chamber and understand this simple fact.
On a lighter note, Orthodox priests will bless just about everything and anything.

I apologize, because I never considered just what a blundering blowhard you are thereby attracting the ATO’s ire.

Senate Republicans produced a video today announcing their position toward Ukraine. WATCH: [at link below]
Accept things as they are, not as you would wish them to be.
Place your bets on whether blue and yellow ribbons will be deployed for all State of the Union attendees?

How many thousands of planes did Tony Barber bring down today?
Milton, that first old coot you linked to took time off to appear in a handful of the Batman (Christian Bale) & newer Batman (Ben Affleck) movies.
Priorities right?
36 degrees here right now. 43 deg high today, been over 40 for several days.
Not a sign of rain, not even mare’s tails.

Only fully vaccinated allowed to fill sand bags.
This country deserves to die.

When Pelosi said she was “staying on” to “look after the children”, she wasn’t joking.
She was referring to “her children”.

Er… 123andBush, according to your link, sand bags may be filled only by those who’re fully vaccinated and have just passed a rapid antigen test.
It’s time to send the asteroid.
I just read that ftb- it’s not a republic at all because in a republic trash like Leahy wouldn’t get away with behaving like aristocratic dilettantes.
Guess we can take a punt where Chinese stand…..

Lol, that’s taken outside the Canadian consulate – which has Ukrainian flags & “We stand with Ukraine” type messages in Chinese.
(Coz a Canadian flag would be embarrassing, when you’re representing Canada, a racist exploitative misogynistic country built on stolen land)
Further down there’s pictures of “fuck NATO” graffiti too.
Cohenite:
So why hasn’t there been a significant punishment for the organisations who lied?
Probably because the story supports the narrative that Whites Are Racist,
Senate Republicans plus one Democrat defeat radical bill allowing abortion-on-demand until birth
The Women’s Health Protection Act would have codified a ‘right’ to abortion, right up to the baby’s birth.
ABORTION, POLITICS – U.S.

I quite liked Sale of the Century.
Andrew O’Keefe should join the Ukrainian Army.
I suspect they’d take another game show host down on his luck.
That’s why they did that Glory to Russia photo there and not somewhere else.
So far Xi is sitting on the fence, while negotiating energy deals with Vlad. I suspect his PLA guys are watching this very closely. The Russians do seem to be having a lot of touble and the Ukrainians appear to be defending quite feistily. Which will telegraph to the PLA staff that a certain heavily defended mountainous island may not be such an easy pushover.
What has Tony Barber done to deserve this calumny, CL?
He never donned stilletos and leather in trans mode to promote a pop single, afaik.
Unlike Zelensky.
I thought he died ages ago, must be confusing him with the guy that did Get Smart.
It begs the question;
If you are unvaccinated do you get rescued?
I must say, I’m enjoying Cassie’s Apologies About the Rant series.
It is a series, isn’t it? 😉
indeed – and this sort of shit makes me angry.
As you say, priceless possessions are passed to these organisations for safe keeping and wider distribution.
One of their primary goals should be keeping the items safe.
Ukraine and Poland participated in the Invasion of Iraq, eh?
Relevance?
It’s Grigory.
Since when has any of his gypsum-fuelled wrongology had any relevance?
Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene do the right thing during the vile grub’s SOU dribble. Naturally the media side with biden who didn’t notice their protest:

Pity there aren’t more conservatives like these 2 ball tearers.
Interesting report.
Russian invasion of Ukraine: morgues in Belarus are crammed with the bodies of Chechens (2 Mar)
No idea about the veracity of this, but Ms Krasulina has for quite a while been an irritant to nice Mr Lukashenko. Couple it with the report a few days ago that Chechen boss Kadyrov was sending 12,000 fighters to Ukraine. I’ve seen a couple vids of both live and dead Chechens so far, so maybe the idea that they’re being used as AKs-on-legs is accurate. Vlad, I think, doesn’t much like Chechens, even the ones on his side.
NSW plod in Tweed Heads “euthanased” – i.e. shot dead – a disoriented dairy cow today.
It had survived the floods but was 30 km from home and in distress due to well meaning people trying to corral it.
Shot 5 times, reportedly.
A milk cow.
I hope they compensate the farmer promptly, at least.
I couldn’t resist. Every time I see Rockdoctors name, I remember this:

Good question.
I’d say how it works is this:
Spud McSpuddy is sitting on the roof, the SES rock up in a Dreadnought and inquire as to his CentreLink Number.
That tells them how up to date he is.
There’s a “nurse” on board, and from there on in it’s a case of

Having seen both, I know which I’d rather be trying to defend.
Ukraine will grow everything except pumpking & melons (as the saying goes)
You dribble at the mouth just looking at it.
Sweet Potato Island, on the other hand, is proper bandit country.
It’d be double the acreage were it to be flattened out, & covered in prolly has more trees than anywhere I’ve seen.
Zelensky played NRL? What an uncouth animal.
Practicing for when they finally move on the unclean untermensch.
Zelensky has more in common with David Morrison than Tony Barber.
I wonder about these performances, from whence did they originate, and for what reason are they performed.
I wish Whadjuk Elder Walter McGuire and his wife Meg all the best and commend them for their enterprising spirit, but I wonder about the morality of corporations and government departments paying for these performances while feeling that their sponsorship is somehow virtuous.
Has it occurred to them that these performances might not be edifying nor uplifting for some of the performers and viewers. Is this anything other than a reanimated museum artifact, some theater bought to life in recent history like Frankenstein’s monster, a historic pantomime.
Think of it through another set of eyes. Imagine yourself as a successful, middle class indigenous man. Imagine that you just got off a plane at an Australian airport, well dressed in a tailored suit, pleased with yourself for successfully closing a deal, and you are greeted by a smoking ceremony.
How would he view the spectacle?
Salvatore:
Lawn is dead and the garden is barely hanging on. Most of the ground cover has died.
Anthills are about 3 every square meter.
Water restrictions to hand held hoses.
I’m using a 1 meter probe attached to a tap to try to save some of the frangipanis but it ain’t looking good – too close to the roots and it cooks them. The water coming out of the tap is 48 degrees C. (Inside after going through the 30 meters of cooling pipe.)
If it hadda been a 4 metre Burmese Python, they woulda safely relocated it.
[Actually happened on the Gold Coast a few years back].
To be fair though, an angry cow will charge, and even though it can be milked a coupla days after it’s calmed down a bit, that doesn’t help the guy on ice at the morgue.
Meghan does Marketing
Cool, SATP! I’ve never been to either.
I was thinking to myself that Putin chose this time of year quite carefully. Anything off road will be stuck in mud, and since he has effective command of the air he gets to use the roads and the Ukrainians get to use the mud.
That works as an equation until the guerilla phase, of course, then the advantage reverses.
Heh. The help kicknamed her ‘Me-gain’ at Frogmore.
Bess Price described “smoking ceremonies”, “welcome to country” and “acknowledging the tribal elders” as “made up bullshyt” with no place in traditional Aboriginal culture.”
Yes, although rare, especially with a dairy cow used to being handled by humans. I tried to refrain from second guessing the police in this instance. But I can’t help but think this was uncalled for and a case of hammer meets nail. Could they not have called a vet?
Someone posted the video here a few days ago & I was foolish enough to click on it.
Good night,all!
A good book awaits.

Was in the same mind Roger. We clear grid squares for bloody snakes FFS. Cop is an idiot or trigger happy unless I see actual danger to the public. Which in this day and age of hand cameras shouldn’t be too hard.
Yeah, nah.
Poor wet and miserable cow, I’m sad for her. I’ve just had two wet, miserable brushtails arrive. They rarely come out when it’s raining, but they’re hungry because of typical early March weather. The Cafe also had an endless queue of wet birds all day. Flanneries are annoying.
gawd the garbage that gets printed
Seems like a sadistic bastard act shooting the cow.
132andbush:
Not just an idle thought anymore, is it?
Razey:
Distressed because it hadn’t been milked for days and was in pain.
Interesting title. “Jacinda Ardern. Leading with Empathy.” Here is me thinking the woman is a fairly obvious sociopath and she goes and proves it.
Jim Jordan says investigating Fauci a priority if GOP controls House after midterm election

A quick word.

Certainly didn’t deserve five bullets…
It had survived the floods but was 30 km from home and in distress due to well meaning people trying to corral it.
Shot 5 times, reportedly.
What’s the point of gun laws if they let these fucking imbeciles have guns?
Imagine how the cow would have felt if, instead of the five shots, they’d managed to hit her with every shot.
“Twitter is the last major platform not to have deleted the accounts of Russian state media RT France and Sputnik.
The government is raising its voice against Twitter. The platform, which should soon be forced by the European Union to delete the accounts of Russian state media RT France and Sputnik, has so far not taken the lead, unlike Facebook and YouTube.
Asked about France Inter on March 1, the Secretary of State for Digital Cédric O sharply criticized the company, in the context of the invasion of Ukraine by Russia.”
French government calling for the end of free speech.
It’s as if normal people are incapable of discernment.
Equipped with an oversized rotisserie and carving knives perchance?
You claimed to be a pacifist a few weeks ago, what happened?
She both sux, and blows.
A dairy cow? One that’s just experienced a 30km flood ride & had clueless yahoos trying to yard it?
It’d be like eating a cast-for-age Cockatoo.
Al jazeera still on the nice list
Exactly. A farmer knows how humanely kill a cow with a single shot of a .22. Cops are lower than pigs. Useless, fascist scum of the earth, only in it for a pay check and to lord it over everyone.
The cow was unvaccinated.
The Abos in tailored suits seem to be the ones pushing this shit. Certainly the politicians among them are. Haven’t heard one of them speak out about it at any rate.
Obviously
Unless you hit a cow between the eyes, it will get up.
When it gets up, it ain’t in the mood for negotiation.
The people trying to round it up were lucky not to be killed.
How many people get killed by cattle every year?
Like death by snake, it’s hard to find the information, but it’s quite a few.
It wouldn’t have had to recover at all if you hadn’t screwed it into the ground, you berk.
Modern Government:
Fuck it then claim to fix it.
How many get killed by Bison?

This Jordan guy has been taking lessons from the Master BullShitter?
Razey, the Police have a vital role to play in protecting the criminals from the wrath of the citizens.
/sarc off
Whoever to believe?
The treasurer is a politician so you can’t believe him.
How many get killed by pythons?
That’s kept very quiet.
Narrative unraveling
Like everything else you post, this is bullshit, and you know it.
You pay for the cattle, & I’ll shoot one between the eyes with a centre-fire and it will get up & charge.
Then I’ll shoot another not between the eyes, in fact not front on at all, with a .22 rimfire and it will drop dead, like a puppet with the strings cut.
I know I can do both, first shot, coz I’ve done it many times before.
Eyrie, one believes Josh if the stats are going his way, which they are.. But let me ask you something. You actually think a blowhard numbnuts living on the outskirts of civilization running, a stupid highway burger joint would have more predictive abilities on the Australian economy? Really?
Folks , get a load of the very black pot calling the other very black pot very black.
Why not?
I was 6 months ahead of you regards the labour shortage.
Wig and make up on for the video.
Who is supposed to be outraged at whom by this?
I know.
Everyone, at Putin.
New strategy on executing politicians when the time comes:
Why waste bullets when you’ve got 50million doses of Pfizer?!
Patriots get to form orderly queues and inject the politician of their choice with Pfizer.
The punishment ends when a politician finally expires from sufficient doses of this shit.
Two things you will never be able to manage (Dwarf of Swanston street)
1. Find one thing, just one, that I have been wrong about.
2. Actually put up money to back your mouth.
Game over. I own you.
Just so we don’t forget “the dams will never fill”.
Greater Sydney is fully Flanneried.
All dams, including those in the upper Nepean scheme (except for Cataract), are about to top. Storage is at 99.2%
The Nepean is well and truly flooding, from above the confluence with Warragamba. Camden weir is at 10m and rising rapidly.

Events, dear boy, events. H/T Harold MacMillan.

Catching fast train to Montparnesse.

Then no doubt two hours battling across Paris on the metro.

Hi SpongeBob.
You do understand that Harold McMillan was as camp as a row of tents, don’t you?
SBS had some hysterical bint demanding BoJo start seizing private property.
Someone should’ve reminded her she wasn’t back in the Ukraine.
Or Canada.

Some of us are incensed you’re talking down to Mr. Ed pretending, actually pretending, you’re smarter than he is. You have nothing to feel superior about.
About 5yrs ago for the first time in my life I experienced intermittently, excruciating cramps to my toes.
My sister advised me to purchase MagMin tabs which I did for $18.50.
I never did get to take them because that very same day srr had stated on the old catallaxy that a teaspoon of Vegemite would do the trick. I tried that first and it worked and has done ever since.
Occasionally when I get slack and don’t have my Vegemite the cramps return. I don’t know what the secret is but I do know it isn’t salt. I have plenty each morning on my eggs.
I remain eternally grateful to srr.
I write this because if someone here can help another by advice then that commenter should IMO be respected.

Hi SpongeBob.

Two points.
1) Don’t be such a homophobe.
2) How does that affect the quote?
Vegemite does have a fair few of those things like Magnesium in it.
Minerals (per serving, 5g)
Calcium (Ca) 3.1 mg
Copper (Cu) 0 mg
Iron (Fe) 0.2 mg
Magnesium (Mg) 8 mg
Manganese (Mn) 0 mg
Potassium (K) 93 mg
Phosphorus (P) 4.6 mg
Selenium (Se) 1.2 mcg
Zinc (Zn) 0.2 mg
Salt is a poison, will wreck your kidneys, though vegetarians need it to cook rabbit food.
Try not to mention Vegemite around SpongeBob, it may get him excitable.
You spend a fair bit of time here talking about politicians being attached to lamp posts, but that doesn’t apply to Fruity Politicians, by the sounds of your comment?
That’s based on a rumour that McMillan was expelled from school for “Gross indecency.” It’s been dissected by two of his biographers, and found to be untrue.
