It is undeniable: The Corona vaccines cause a wide array of adverse events, not all of them understood. Right now it’s hard to assess their population-wide impact, but it is no longer reasonable to doubt that they’re substantially more dangerous than ordinary vaccines. Rough calculations from VAERS data suggest that they’re at least several hundred times more dangerous than flu shots.

The Media’s Insidious Effort to Shift Economic Blame from White House to Russia Continues
March 7, 2022 | Sundance | 32 Comments
The propaganda effort by western media, specifically but not exclusively U.S. media, to shift blame for massive economic damage from Joe Biden to Russia is reaching a stunning level of coordinated intent.
The cognitive dissonance (fancy words for telling lies under the cloud of economic analysis) is not only happening in the U.S; a similar level of blame-shifting is happening in Europe, Australia, Canada and most western media outlets.
The global economic contraction, which was specifically and intentionally created by the collective ‘Build Back Better‘ promoters, is now being blamed on Russia; and, quite frankly, the motive behind the corporate media shifting the blame is because the underlying ideology (western policy) was/is supported by the leftist media tribe.
Throughout 2021 it is well documented how government COVID policies of lockdowns, economic consequences and insane spending, created the baseline problem behind inflation. Simultaneously, the western approach toward energy development and the “opportunity” the EU and U.S. sought to exploit within the BBB agenda to radically transform energy use, was simply pouring super-volatile fuel on an already burning fire.
In 2021 gasoline prices increased 60 to 80 percent; food prices jumped 15 to 40 percent, with some sectors even higher. By the time the EU central bankers and U.S. Federal reserve finally admitted inflation was no longer “transitory,” we were facing next harvest fertilizer prices that tripled in price from 2020, and oil prices that had doubled in the span of 12 months.

Look up the Trusted News Initiative, kicked off by the BBC. Partners include Facebook, Twitter, MS, Reuters, Google, WSJ and on and on, globally. Express purpose is to suppress, delete or permanently deplatform any voices dissenting from the official narrative. Horrible to watch this over the past two years.
Early on in Australia and elsewhere, media corporations were given significant tax breaks and deluged by government advertising money (federal, state and local). My local city council so far refuses to quantify their “community health” advertising spend.

Has anyone heard from Angela Merkel since this Ukrainian thing began? Is there a single western journalist out there with the integrity to seek Merkel out and see if she is proud of allowing Germany to become dependant on Russian energy?
That joint needs a good wash.
“is there a single western journalist out there with the integrity”
And therein lies the rub. There isn’t. This is the big problem in the West, the lack of any decent investigatory journalism. We need journalists to investigate stuff like Covid, WEF, Merkel and so on. But instead they’re part of the problem. You only have to look at the media coverage of Ukraine, very few journalists are willing to deviate from the mainstream views. This is my big worry, the lack of credible scrutiny of government, particularly governments of the left. Look at how the MSM cover up for the Sniffer in Chief. It’s a disgrace.
Merkel will get a free pass. Just think of Merkel’s legacy….a nation dependent on Putin’s gas and the blind acceptance of millions of middle eastern Muslim men.
I think it would be safe to assume ANY influence who pushed them narrative was being paid for it.

Also be interesting to see a breakdown of the Vic Government advertising spendathon over the past 2 years. On commercial radio is seemed every third ad was a tentacle of the government pushing some health safety advice from Staying apart keeps us together, to watch out for trams, to check your smoke detector to wear a hat and put on some sunscreen. It was a though they all had a bump in the advertising budgets and sought to lecture and hector the Andrews way. Felt like North Korea where the government lectures the citizens by radio 24/7.
The Sea Island summit has always been the DeceptiCon gathering of Wall Street elites to cloister themselves and plan a strategy to protect their interests from the base of republican voters.
Without a doubt, the best rant I’ve seen in ages!

The only way this will happen is if a minority party in an upper house (state or federal ex QLD) gets the balance of power & holds that jurisdiction over a barrel until they fully disclose all COVID related ad spending.
One of the reasons I am so keen for the transparency is that I want to know who all these COVID warriors were who were actually just paid agents of the state.
Then one can “cash for comment” them in perpetuity like AJ still gets to this day.
I enjoy listening to Mark Steyn rants. Every now and then his use of language nails the persons character. Examples:

Once you realise that Frau Merkel hated Germany, her actions become quite logical.
The flag waving incident, The refusal to lift the defence budget, the refusal to stop the refugee rapists, and the support for the Green destructive policies. Nearly every decision she made weakened Germany and boosted Russia.
She may not have been a Soviet plant, but there’s little evidence of her being a German patriot.
I haven’t come across DIY and Tech influencers that isn’t up front. But not surprised about the ones boosting the government. If the audience doesn’t care why should they. CNN model.
I noticed that too. It looked to me as if ‘Justice’ was being sent to get people already judged by people other than Lady Justice and, for example, she might not be sent to punish someone who has broken the law but whom we like.
It reminded me of the line from ‘A Man for All Seasons”:
Throwing yourself out the window of a 20th storey penthouse, in which ten million dollars in cash is stacked, because you spy a 50 cent piece on the footpath and you want to get it before anyone else.
“She may not have been a Soviet plant, but there’s little evidence of her being a German patriot.”
I suspect the former, which perhaps explains her relationship with Putin. Just remember that Putin was a KGB operative in East Germany back in the early 1980s.
Once upon a time I had no time for “conspiracies”….but now, nothing surprises me.
Ssr posted on the previous OT about the US Supreme Court banning fizzer vax. Saying it is not a vax. Blah blah blah. Had a look at the Supreme Court website, no mention of it. Looked at the link ssr provided, read to the end, looks like fake news. Up your game ssr.
Mike Pence will likely attend (though he is not in the scant CBS outline), and you can bet the 2024 DeceptiCon approved candidate will be in the mix somewhere. AEI tries to hide the political guest list because of websites like us who have caught on to the schemes (think splitter strategy). However, if I were betting, I’d say names like Nikki Haley, Liz Cheney, John Thune, Joni Ernst and Kristi Noem will likely be behind the windows of the dark tinted SUV’s arriving late in the evening.

CAUGHT! red-handed with the red shoes?
Someone mentioned Gov advertising, I reckon at least half of all the ads I see are direct or indirect gov ads. People wonder why the media have had such a lack of curiosity re covid and most other gov stupidity have the answer. When half your revenue comes from gov sources you really can’t criticise the sources. Throw in the domination of the media by uni educated fools and you get what we have today.

This bluewater-rated, ocean-going lunatic seriously believes a court – any court – will rule that something must be avoided ‘at all costs’.

Grew up in East Germany with communist true believer parents. I find it a LOT easier to believe she was a Soviet plant than not. Stay behind, dead ender, to wreak havoc on the west in revenge for the collapse of communism in the Soviet Union. Probably far worse worse than other traitors like Benedict Arnold, Vidkun Quisling etc etc.”Angela Merkel” deserves to be remembered as a term of derision as a traitor.

Quite so. Last night on the old thread, in the early hours of the morning, she posted yet another diatribe about me, and there was this classic line….
“A gutter mouth that arrogantly calls herself a “Princess”, choking on the delusion that they are too far above simply saying, ‘Sorry, I was wrong.’.”
I can laugh at that….because she’s a lunatic but the point is that the other night she posted a link to a unsavoury Holocaust denier, anti-Semite and all round racist called Mark Collett. It might have been inadvertent, it might not have been however when I called her out for this link, rather than apologise, she doubles down and then starts her attacks on me (and a few others). That’s why when I read her spray this morning and particularly her line “choking on the delusion that they are too far above simply saying, ‘Sorry, I was wrong.’.”…I laughed because she’s actually describing herself to a tee.
And as sure as the sun rising in the east, rather than addressing the issue, she’ll come on later (after her nap) and post a vicious, unhinged diatribe about me.
I note the old ‘axis of evil’ has been replaced by an ‘arc of autocracy.’
But there’s no introspection from Western powers as to how they’ve facilitated this.
Journalistic integrity? Fuggedaboudit as far as at least 80% of them are concerned.
The standard approach to conservative governments (if there are any that qualify any more) is:
Floods, Fires and Droughts are always made worse by conservative governments, either by not supplying assistance as quickly and completely as the journos and green/left opposition tell you, or by not getting to zero CO2 quickly enough – because all those problems of weather are “climate change” and caused by man, docha know? It’s the original sin of the post-Christian rabble who are posing as keeping the bastards honest but really aiding and abetting the decades-long drift towards socialism and tyranny.
I tend to joke around as my various comments are rejected by Teh Paywallian. Every now and again I would argue it’s more worrying such as this one on Sneaker’s evidence to Fat Clive’s defamation trial:
Yep, sorry, they took this –
Supreme Court has canceled universal vaccination In the United States, the Supreme Court has canceled universal vaccination.
https://edition.cnn.com/2022/01/13/politics/supreme-court-vaccine-mandate-covid-19/index.html
mixed it with other facts such as –
The coronavirus VACCINE IS NOT A VACCINE!
and other key names, to lead people to other old news falsely claiming ‘debunking’ of all the proven facts of the crimes & criminals still pushing Jabs.
So thank you for the alert. I can add them to the long list of Fake Jab Truthers.
Laura Jayes says there’s a “white hot anger” about the failure of government in northern NSW.
I’ve never heard journos like her say anything like that about Labor governments.
Have any of them really criticised Andrews?
The Paywallian story now closed to comments. I expect someone flagged it with the lawyers.
If you were being generous, reader comments on an ongoing court case is probably opening a Pandora’s Box.
The Westies banned Eastern Military Officers from the new German Army, they also kept Easties out of technically sensitive outfits. They targeted the wrong people.
Their mistake was to not understand that the Easties didn’t want secrets, they wanted Germany. They already owned the universities and much of the public service, and the western Social Democratic and part of the Christian Democrat establishments.
The East had devoted 50 years to nothing other than planning the subjugation of Germany. It was easy for them. They traded successfully on the great German strategic weaknesses, the love of compliance, avoidance of inquiry, and the huge chip that they still carry on their shoulders.
The West should not have torn down the wall, they should have made it higher.
Merkel’s treason was open and obvious and economically damaging. The Germans loved her for it.

Yes, which is why I hope and pray that the Liberal Dems and PHON have the balance of power in the senate post-federal election.
Say what you like about Pauline Hanson but she has, to her credit, been consistent in her calls for a

The balance of power will not be enough, the UNiParty has so committed itself to the ongoing “narrative” that they will work together to prevent any exposure, and the LSM will work with them.
The minors need to obtain half the Senate over the next couple of election cycles.
That means the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program won’t have to pay out.
A mere coincidence I’m sure.
If they were serious and not just characters in the ABC’s anti-Liberal narrative, they’d stop expecting government to be the solution to every problem and start boosting civil society.
And when government tries to do something that’s within its legitimate sphere of responsibility, like the council proposing raising the levee banks, don’t complain about the cost.
I don’t see any problem with asking someone about their origins. Most people are happy to define themselves.
One thing that took some getting used to with the French is that while they are outrageously polite and often hidebound, they are entirely comfortable seeking personal details from their interlocutors. They just find anyone different to be fascinating.
A colleague whose work started taking her to events in Europe was shocked by the casual manner in which the French would ask her about her politics.
She never got used to it so she developed a defensive mantra “Marxist, tendance Groucho”.

It’s funny, but it’s easy to tell when the gang is getting ready for another assault.
First they go quiet, then they pull out a few old favourites socks, sorry, ‘friends’ and then the jerky dance of the jerks starts again.
… anyway … this was a reply to Cassie rant on the Weekend Open Thread, that I wasn’t going to bother posting when I realised Cassie had dropped back into an old dead thread to have her much needed ‘last word’, but then she brought it back into the new thread, so …
I love the way the true, gutter mouthed Cassie comes out when she has no answer but to double & triple down on her bald faced BS.
Another of her tells that she is not kosher is how she keeps repeating what she believes others have already bought, while avoiding like the plague, what’s really stung her.
Cassie talks in her own (very low class), voice when she’s angry & scared.
Nothing at all like those pieces she posts for praise after finding and tweaking popular & well received work of others.
Oh she can recognise good work, she just can’t produce it, not from scratch.
Now, once upon a time I posted something from Gab, and off she & other’s went; ‘The place is full of Nazis, you must be a Nazi to!’, insane stuff, but wearing her, ‘Untouchable Jewish Princess’, costume, No One was going to tell her what an idiot she made of herself so she made, ‘proving’ me a ‘Nazi, Holocaust Denying, Jew Hating, Anti-Semite, Racist’, her hill to die on.
Yeah, her Leftist Cancel Culture overkill is another of her tells, but I digress …
Having Jewish family amongst my large extended family that pretty well covers every continent, colour, class & creed, means nothing to Cassie & her need to ‘prove’ her absurdities.
Hell she even went as far as to claim my Ukrainian blood meant I hated Jews, so much I probably didn’t even have Jewish Grandchildren.
That’s Crazy Lady stuff, but so what, she’s the socks crazy lady and that’s all that matters!
When Cassie is seething with enmity there is absolutely nothing clever, witty, insightful, cutting, creative or entertaining in what she writes.
It’s just pure Cassie low class, dumb arse, gutter mouth.
Again, this is NOT about me.
Her hatred is freely doled out to all sorts, though mostly other women who she loves to ‘critique as’ ‘not good at their jobs’, but her obsessive overuse of the word “ugly” & other superficial descriptors that mean, “not ‘Beautiful’ like me”, simply paint, ‘Envy’ & ‘Jealousy’ in bloody big red letters all over her woeful attempts at being original & insightful.
‘Cassie’s’ are a dime a dozen on Social Media.
Their job is to herd she cats into spit & hiss fights against individuals who refuse to be herded.
We’re a long way from freeing ourselves from propaganda while people still refuse to see through the ‘Cassie’s’ of World Wide Web of Deception.

Back when I were young, some bloke was discouraged from doing electrical engineering because the Grey Funnel Line was concerned about the potential security implications attached to having a parent from the DDR.
Only a bit bright, he eventually decided the stoker’s life was not for him and took his Mathematics/B. Eng (1st class honours & university medal) off to New York.
If they were serious and not just characters in the ABC’s anti-Liberal narrative, they’d stop expecting government to be the solution to every problem and start boosting civil society.
Interesting thing consistently identified by academics looking into community reactions and actions after disasters, from volcanoes to mudslides, bushfires and all the rest: the most valuable and worthwhile work, be it recovering bodies or arranging clean water, is done by locals immediately after the event.
After that, the government turns up to help, local leadership is sidelined and, as in Victoria after Black Saturday, you get useless units like Christine Nixon being placed in front of the cameras and atop recovery efforts.
Nixon was sooooooo effective, Marysville has still not been restored to anything like its former self.

If Greta had played her cards right, she could have had me.
In Italy years ago at a hotel there was a concierge who was the dead spit of Greta and my god was she a sight close up.
Married and with my wife at the time but she also noticed the uncanny resemblance and the beauty of the girl.

these COVID warriors who were actually just paid agents of the state
Listening to 3AW, the government ads are legion — including the young girl saying how wonderful it is to come out, shack up with her girlfriend and all the while being so warmly supported by all the good people of Victoria.
Coincidentally, 3AW also banned any mention on air of ivermectin and was tireless in painting anti-lockdown protests as, to quote Neil Mitchell, “tinfoil hatters, nutters and conspiracy theorists”.
At a guess, I’d figure gov’t ads represent at least 10% of the station’s ad content.
I don’t like to boast but I was sitting next to Greta Scacchi on Cottesloe Beach one Christmas. Made a pleasant change from the Perthonalities like Basil Zempilas and Baby John Burgess.

Genuine question, have you taken your medication this morning? If not, you might want to double the dosage.

Otherwise you are just making it up again.
I’d like to seek the help of the group for some facts and figures. A club that I’m a member of is proposing a vaccine mandate for using the club’s facilities at the AGM. The committee has indicated it doesn’t support the motion but that won’t stop the Karens. BTW, the club facilities are in NSW so there’s no legal requirement for a mandate.
The proposer of the motion has raised the old OH&S argument. I would like to counter on the grounds that it is none of any club member’s or employee’s business the medical information of a Club member, as well as the fact that the OH&S argument is spurious because the vaccines do not prevent you contracting or spreading the virus, and that the influenza virus is more deadly than Omicron and the club is not demanding everyone has a flu vaccination. So if anyone has links to studies that provide backing to my arguments I’d really appreciate it.
“Sean Penn…is a whiter, dumber version of Whoopi Goldberg.”
Regardless of his politics/wokeness, one thing you have to give him is that he actually spends time on the ground doing physical labour to help out – something that is pretty much never done by the “rich and famous”. That he spends his own time and effort to help, rather than just throw money at it, earns him credit with me.
Australia has the world’s largest reserve of nickel, though it is only the fifth largest producer. The mining companies would benefit from an increase in demand, it might be time for another Poseidon bubble.
Meanwhile in the NT…
The Rolfe trial resumes today – yesterday they had a day off for a “funeral” – no further info.
This just in:
An NT Police officer has allegedly shot a man after being confronted by a man with a spear in Palmerston, sources connected to police have told the NT Independent.
NT Police told Mix 104.9 they had responded to a ‘critical incident” which means it involved a police officer. The NT Independent has put in questions to NT Police about the incident but have not had a reply.
Two sources said police were following a trail of blood when they were allegedly threatened by someone with a spear and then reportedly shot him.
Police have not provided a report on the condition of the man but one source said the man was in the emergency department.
There is very little information, although several other sources have said there there was a shooting in the city on Tuesday morning and other sources have said it happened near units near the corner of Priest Circuit, and Victoria Dve.
St John Ambulance spokeswoman Craig Garraway said paramedics had responded to a shooting but that is all the information he had.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis vs The Florida Lügenpresse
March 7, 2022 | Sundance | Leave a comment
He calls himself a journalist; however, Evan Donovan presents himself as a creepy groomer who works for WFLA TV in the Tampa, Florida, region.
The Florida legislature has passed a parent’s right bill [House Bill 1557 [text pdf here] which says in part schools are prohibited from Pre-k to grade 3 classroom discussion involving gender identity: “prohibiting classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity in certain grade levels or in a specified manner.”
This section of the bill has drawn the ire of the LGBTQ movement who are demanding in-school access to 5-year-old children in order to promote their sexuality issues and advance their overall cause. They now accuse the Florida legislature of creating a “don’t say gay” bill, which they claim blocks their allies in the teaching profession from grooming 4 through 8-year-olds with advanced sexual content.
Today, Evan Donovan, in an effort to assist the sexualization of kindergarten students and promote an early childhood masturbation agenda, asked Florida Governor Ron DeSantis to justify his support of the parents’ right bill. Things got heated:

Bear, we’ve all sat next to her at Cott. And don’t forget Swanbourne in the ’80s.
In other words, it was probably a lie. Man oh man, the lies.
This is Australia.
But the quote is Peter Hitchens talking about how things were in the USSR in 1990.
The OH&S argument is moot.
As the virus can be transmitted by vaxxed and unvaxxed alike, the only way to be sure to be sure is to have all attendees submit a RAT upon entrance.
Even though RATs can give false readings.
azy as it sounds rugbyskier, I think I have an Indy method that will work even better for you and your club.
Ask the question (maybe with a little help and research from a friendly neighbourhood Solicitor)- “Does the NSW Government require a vaccine mandate for entry into venue X?” As a follow up and to really smearer Karen’s nose in it, ask “Does any other venue X in NSW have a stab mandate?”
If not, then Karen’s proposal is dead in its tracks. You lucky bastards are practically normalised (Emergency Act bullshit notwithstanding), and BHP got smacked into timeout corner over mandatory stabs to access NSW minesites last year (Extra Lucky Bastards, as Big Labour over here is in full cahoots with Sneakers McGowan. Even more so than Big Business 🙁 ).
Nah Ukrainian militias in the west are preventing civilians from leaving towns and cities because they know the moment they do the Russian military sweeps in and stomps them.
That’s what’s actually happening. Human shields.
Sorry, sorry! Missed a step:
Crazy as it sounds rugbyskier, I think I have an Indy method that will work even better for you and your club…
#ICast…Gun!
Was at pharmacy this morning. Amused to see a large prominent pile of RATs right near the checkout.
Methinks, now that the Gestapo are no longer making the proles use them, they’re not selling too well.
No one was wearing masks except the pharmacy peoples behind the counter.
Thanks calli and Rex.
Last year we had temperature checks before entering club facilities and were offered refunds if you were unwell, which to me is all that’s needed – although a RAT might add some weight (despite the lack of accuracy). The ability for a refund is a huge point, too many club members in the past have come with cold/flu viruses and spread the love around because they didn’t want to lose their money.
Problem is there’s an association of clubs recommending the mandate, so the argument about all venues being mandate-free falls down.
Putanist puta!
Keep it simple, ‘skier.
You are not dealing with smart people.
Just mandate a RAT for all and watch the satellite Karens back down. The Event Horizon ones will probably persist. Don’t waste your time on the idiots. A RAT is not a disclosure of vaxx status.
I look at as similar to the temp taking early in the piece. Immediate though not foolproof.
And get the filthy buggers to wash their hands too, since we’re wanting to be extra vigilant.
For Safety ™.
The club has a lot of current and retired Canberra public servants who have an inflated opinion of their intellectual capability so it’s going to be a tough one. I’ll need to be on my A-game.

Play dumb, let them hang themselves by speaking too much of which they know little. Ask seemingly naïve questions, appear interested in their responses.
Correct, McCullogh and Yeadon have both shown that asymptomatic spread is a minimal risk or less.
Its not a ‘lack of accuracy’ that the RATs have, its a lack of SENSITIVITY for RATs, and thats a GOOD thing – PCRs were waaaay to sensitive, meaning they labelled a lot of non infectious people as sick due to detecting clinically irrelevant viral loads. The RATs ONLY come up positive if the customer is shedding significant amounts of virus.
John H., we need a Concern Troll-off!
Sounds like we have both achieved 10th Dan level. My experience comes from dealing with know-all teenagers.

By all means, wash your hands if you want clean hands, but COVID is principally spread by aerosols (think cigarette smoke) so its going to do little if anything to prevent the spread of that.
Hehe. Association Schmassociation.
The Law is what matters in the end.
And if The Law does not require it, then there is SFA the Karen Kollective can do about it. 🙂
(Now, if you can do that discreetly and tactfully and outmanoeuvre the blockheads you have described, then you are well and truly on a winner)
I have never been vax’d and never taken one of their tests. Why would anyone fall into that trap?

Briefing by Russian Defence Ministry spokesperson
The grouping of troops of Lugansk People’s Republic, continuing offensive operations, took control of Kudryashovka, Voronovo, Metelkino, Medvezhye, Askoronovka, Petrovka, Aleksandrovka.
The units of the People’s Militia of the Donetsk People’s Republic established control over Latmoye, Berezovoe, Yasnoye, Maksimovka and Valerianovka.
Today, from 10:00 a.m. Moscow time, in accordance with the declared cease-fire, all military operations in the area of Mariupol were completely stopped.
According to civilians who escaped from the city, the situation in Mariupol occupied by the nationalists is difficult. People are hiding in basements. Due to the lack of electricity and gas in their homes, they are forced to cook their food on the street, at the stake.
The militants disperse them. Nationalists open fire on all civilians trying to leave their homes. People are forced to paint on the walls and doors of houses: “don’t shoot – children are here!”.
However, the Nazis, using terrorist tactics, deploy their firing positions in houses with inscriptions “do not shoot – children are here!”.
The units of the Russian Armed Forces took control of Novoukrainskoye, Staromayorskoye, Staromlynovka, Mayorovo and Removka. All civilians of the liberated settlements are provided with humanitarian assistance.
The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation continue to strike at the military infrastructure of Ukraine.
Bomber and assault aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces destroyed 26 military facilities.
Among them: 2 command posts, 1 radar station, 5 ammunition depots and 11 areas of concentration of weapons and military equipment.
And masks don’t work, I caught the spicy cough when masked up on a aeroplane.
Oh Noes!

DocDuk, the “clean hands” is just general hygiene, but it can be an emotional crutch for the CovidFear impaired. Sounds like they need one.
Not much said about the 21 cases of Covid that caused the town of Bidyadanga to be closed and isolated for a few days. Then hey presto all over and open again, all tests were false positive and involved another virus. I wonder just how many cases reported by government are false?

And get the filthy buggers to wash their hands too, since we’re wanting to be extra vigilant.
Set up a public hand washing facility just inside the door, everyone to wash hands before entry. Wait for screams of “How dare you”.

That’s not the idea. The idea is to concern troll them with mindless routines.
I’ve observed this among my friends and it breaks my heart. Especially the ones who persist in wearing masks. No amount of “don’t be afraid”s from me makes any difference, but I do persist. Eventually it will get through.
Rats also come up positive for no shedding or at least my half
a dozen RAT and PCR comparisons all came up positive and according to the brains trust none had viral overloads and were shedding.

It’s not only that. Evacuation routes will clog up Ukraine’s interior lines making it difficult for them to respond to Russian movements on the front and resupply units already there. I don’t see any upside for Russians firing on evacuees.

And gets you invited to be very best parties.
And a former truck driver with a chip on both shoulders and a burning need for relevance to offset the shame of his received welfare payments is not invited to the very best parties. So he feels a need to sneer, pull faces and moon everyone else who is standing outside next to him, looking in on all the ‘cool’ kids…
Poor ex-truck driver. No longer able to demonstrate his self-felt superiority by fudging his fatigue logbooks and risking his life and other road users’ to make up the time, he is reduced to wordwalling and autistic beeping at everyone who rolls their eyes at his Nuffery.

“You can’t be too careful!”
“But that’s ridiculous!” they’ll claim.
“OK, how about we test based on prevalence?” – not too much COVID doing the rounds ATM, so…

Yeah, managed by all those government and company departments, brimming with money, dedicated to just men.
My company had a Man’s Day morning tea (this was the sum total of what they offered) a few years ago. First time so I was curious. Maybe they would mention mens health issues, the rather frightening suicide statistics, or even make a point that they should not wear themselves out at work at the expense of family life because (unexpected positive image) fathers are important too.
I was wrong.
The whole session revolved around the presence of some woman who had bobbed like a cork into various high level government jobs on the current of policies to promote women (where talent presumably would not have landed them).
Her message on Mens Day? Men should look for ways that they could advance women.

Its organisers seek to promote men’s rights, highlight discrimination against men and promote positive male role models from outside the celebrity sphere.
If it was observed widely in Australia I’d suggest there’d be demonstrations against it by the usual suspects.
