In drug-induced deaths, fatal suicides, and motor vehicle deaths, males far outnumber females. [Same source as above – the ABS].
In 2022, the ABS records 228 deaths due to assault. 158 of those were male, and 70 female. [Source].
‘Gendering’ these issues achieves nothing. NOTHING yeah it does it re-inserts small-f feminism into the idiot mind of Joelene Public…

Another jabbed dead.
Another jabbed with heart problems.
All swept under the carpet here on the blog of the insane.
Very quickly.
Mentally sick fuckers.
Many of you have been off with the pixies since March 2020.
How many boosters are you going to get?
Are you going to jab yourself to death submitting to tyranny?
If you refuse….why did you get jabbed in the first place?
How dare struth ask such questions.
What an arsehole!
Good reporter in a dangerous place:
RTWT.
How long was it after the booster that Warnie popped his clogs?
Great spin bowler but will go down in history as the moron who hassled Novax Jockitch about taking what actually killed him.
Novax is a smart man.
How long after the booster for Kitchens?
Tracey Grimshaw. ….and of course tennis tournaments virtually cancelled as people in the prime of their lives buckle over in chest pains and insurance companies reports. ……on it goes.
Yet we get many different reactions from the newly retarded.
Kneel blames me for his decision but underneath what’s eating him up is he now knows his job was the very least important thing of all.
He now realises this is serious and people want him dead.
And his family.
I understand the anger directed at straight talkers like me but as some of you may suspect. ….I couldn’t give a fuck.
Why?
Because straight talking is the more decent thing to do.
It’s what made kneel flip.
You do not want to live with what kneel has to live with.
What he knows he has done.
I never had a thing to do with it.
You see the point here all you jab takers.
I’m not your enemy.
You are your own enemy looking to blame others.
You did it and men, some of you allowed your fucking children to do it.
My adult son did it but I did everything I could from interstate to stop him and he swears he’s not getting boosted.
If you are a fuckwit and believe a job is more important. …you deserve all that is coming to you.
Or if you are a fuckwit who believes an overseas holiday is more important than your life, your family and country men’s lives, our country and our freedom…..you deserve all that is coming to you….and I wouldn’t spit on you.
Selfish fuckers should never have to be told that.

Rare offshoot of the species, Tom.
It’s amazing that green-progs defunded the police, cried “racist” at anyone who criticized letting crims out without bail and generally made public transport a dangerous gamble.
I say that because of this story:
Green campaigners call for ban on flights and car use to slash £30bn Putin payout (Express, 8 Apr)
They should’ve thought about this before bringing in millions of MENA men to make public transport a terrifying prospect for the punters. But I’m sure the report’s authors think the travel restrictions don’t apply to them, they’re too important to the planet.

“ Meet Sarah Whitt the Official Behind the Wisconsin Voter Rolls that Included 3.42 Million Extra Ineligible Voters and Now Works for ERIC.”

Gateway Pundit
What will happen to the 2022 half terms? Dems go quietly and say “ok guvner, it’s a fair cop!”
Presumably that would depend if the coverage of the Trump rally was accurate, exposing how Trump’s speech pandered to rednecks, nazis, climate deniers, racists, white supremacists, etc. who were interspersed among the uneducated dumbass junk food eating crowd.
Having worked for Fox News would be one helluva handicap when contesting a journalism award.

Ok, I’m going to break my hiatus (just this once) so my phone stops going apeshit every time Kneel posts a comment.
I am not Kneel.
The fact that people think he’s such a close facsimile (to my good self) leads me to a number of conclusions:
1. Kneel has impeccable taste in food, clothes and women.
2. Kneel has impeccable logic, and an incredible turn of phase by which to express it in a captivating and unambiguous manner.
3. Kneel is an international man of mystery who can effortlessly switch between a coiled spring of death, and a loving, nurturing father and husband.
I say again, I am not Kneel, but clearly he’s a man of quality, style and deering-do.
I have no reason to use a sock. I’m simply not following the blog.

Where’s NY Post’s Pulitzer? (Surber, 8 Apr)
Miranda Devine ain’t going to win a Pulitzer ever, for this or any other story sadly. Awards like it and the Walkleys are for lefties to give to other lefties. Lefties love giving prizes to each other, especially using taxpayer money.
weird things people do
Here in Australia it takes just a minor discomfort to a bird, mouse or lizard to stop the construction of a dam or mine. These considerations vanish when new wind farms are proposed and approved. There’s little published in the MSM about the bird-slicing windmills. Check this outrageous result in the USA, where the deaths of bald eagles are taken seriously – for the moment at least. It will probably be declared a symbol of white supremacy next.
“ Green Energy Company Pleads Guilty After Their Wind Farms KILL 150 Bald Eagles”.

That’s one of the best excuses I’ve ever heard to get out of jury duty.
Toppling statues is one way of attacking a nation’s cultural heritage, and it has been seen a lot in the USA in recent years. The continuing cultural pogrom now reaches another watershed!
660 rivers, mountains and landmarks are targeted for renaming as part of the marxist reset.
The BBC’s Assignment program this week covered the problems that some French landowners have with rather lame hunting rules. They said that in France you can hunt on private land without permission unless the owner has officially declared their land exempt.
It also had an explanation for the increased population of wild boars – it’s due to climate change. Nothing to do with wild boar males doing their thing.
This is how it was reported six months ago by the msm. Just as well Benjamin Hall was triple jabbed otherwise his injuries would have been much worse.

Two Dogs’ link to Twitter upthread on (satirical) Critical Grooming Theory is a keeper.
Some hilarious takes on it from comments on Twitter (enjoy before they ban it) :
12 to 42 months, people.
Get your respective affairs in order.
Here’s the original as defined:
I keep my accounts very short, KD.
It’s a beautiful morning in the neighbourhood and…this.
“Grooming” has to be re-defined, just like “vaccine”.
Why know why now.
For those who are a bit slow, it is of course a reverse take on Critical Race Theory and White Privilege.
It’s okay, I’m fine with being a racist as opposed to an ‘anti racist’.
As mentioned upthread, VicJack Inc have put the Red Shirts thing in the too hard basket, and thrown it out the window.
The apparent reason is that despite overwhelming evidence, the investigation – headed by then-somebody-else-but-now-Chief Commissioner Shane Patton – was binned.
Despite the said evidence still being there, and as obvious as a filthy furrin Indian truck driver standing next to a grogan outside a roadhouse, the job will not be re-opened because to do so will be a massive concession on the part of Patton that he personally perverted the course of justice and would in all likelihood end up in the bin.
That’s why.
We know why.
It may be a beautiful morning, but my typing is impaired. Either that or my iPad has become self aware and illiterate all at once.
Black tea or milk? Your choice defines you.

The Diocese is in deficit. Well, that’s not news.
The greatest sin is white tea.
Definitely. Add sugar and you are well and truly racist. Just lke Jane Austen.
Drinking it black is cultural appropriation.
Only white Anglo-Saxon Christian male tea can save us.
Progressives don’t like being tarred with the ‘groomer’ brush about gender-preping the under 8’s.
They are shouting ‘unfair’ and ‘not us’ from the rooftops.
Keep the pressure up, troops. A little bit of their own medicine can work wonders.
Any thoughts on coffee?
Dark roast appears to be out.
Maybe they should go back to preaching the Gospel instead of global warming, CRT and the sacredness of guys wearing a dress and going into girls’ loos.
Apologies to them if they are biblical, but since their retired leader is a raving looney I have reasonable suspicions.
Huh?
Shouldn’t we instead party like there won’t be a 2023?
Jane Austen’s connection to Stoneleigh Abbey.
Well, that’s the day sorted out.

Correct, Bruce. I wouldn’t throw any money at a church that refused the Gospel and preached “woke”.
Their nice buildings won’t save them.
I did mention that as a means of regaining congregations, Bruce, cleverly disguising it under the term of ‘outreach’. I am trying to steer a steady ship here but they were left in no doubt that I am a traditionalist when it comes to the liturgy. I mentioned my baptismal certificate and my godfather on it because both relate to our little church, but I couldn’t claim to be a full believer nor a churchgoer. Politely, they didn’t actually ask about that.
Yup.

I see the Academy has banned Will Smith for ten years, despite him resigning from it anyway.
To commemorate the occasion, apparently Jada’s just dressed up and nipped out to a club for a few hours, and asked Smith to make up the spare bed.

I am listening to RN for the first time for a year or so. Ms Doogue has recovered from Covid, which she described as “a heavy cold”.

Not having seen it, I can’t imagine what she meant.

Being banned from attending Oscars ceremonies is terrible, just terrible. What a ghastly punishment!
2015 Masters champion Jordan Spieth created one of the tournament’s biggest meltdowns when he was again marching to victory a year later, but crashed and burned with a quadruple bogey 7 at the par 3 12th and handed the 2016 tournament to a golfing nobody named Danny Willett.
Some people – including the highly talented – never learn. This morning, Spieth had a triple bogey 6 at the 12th and missed the cut.
Such a pretty little par 3.
As I speak only English, I have no idea Tom, what you said there.
Englishmen loved coffee.
Queen Catherine of Braganza made tea popular.
Patton makes Simon Overland look good. VicPlod still the worst of the worst.
Coffee is basically engine oil for humans.
So much so that a bunch of colonial Englishmen threw a lot of tea in to Boston harbour, and we have all seen what happened after that.

“The same is probably true of J6.”
No doubts about that whatsoever.

I’ll tender as evidence Ruslan Kogan’s appearance on Their ABC TV’s Q&A (some youth special)
It was full of hot lefty chicky babes, who spent the whole episode condemning capitalism & consumerism etc, whilst batting eyelashes at Ruslan and making it very clear they’d like to chat to him after the show (he was about 120kg at the time, sweating, & looked like an unkneaded oversized baker’s dough)
Or, woke lefty “cultured”, sophisticated planet-loving schoolteacher girlies, whose behaviour is worth watching when they’re confronted with cro-magnon semi-literate coal miners whose recreation is pig-shooting & burnouts.
The lefty greenpeace principles go out the window faster than you can say “You’re a [highly paid] coal miner? Squeeeeeal, I want to have your babies!”
Patton that he personally perverted the course of justice and would in all likelihood end up in the bin.
Having seen Patton once, live and unscripted, you couldn’t conclude the bloke’s clever.
Just smart enough to be cunning.
So the government of the day put a large tariff on it, turning most of the English into tea drinkers.
Sorry, Tanya, I’d rank Albo as Prime Minister alongside Gough Whitlam.
Albo will be worse. Australia was in far better shape when Whitlam took over.

Same for me Calli, weak black tea as well. The taste of milk makes me want to throw up.
The US is behind NZ on this one. Notice how it’s trendy to say “Aotearoa” instead of “New Zealand” and now they’ve started on the cities and towns. The city councils of Christchurch and Hamilton now have a Maori name together with the English name and the Maori name is being used more regularly as part of the replacement process. You can bet that Auckland and Wellington are next.

– explaining capital gains tax to anyone
I’m sure there are a myriad of others.

I’ve said it before here, but wait until the radicals start up with renaming Victoria, Queensland, and Tasmania. That would be agenda item 1. Item 2 would be NSW as it’s an echo of Britain.
You’re such an astronaut, Hallward.
Agreed:
But it’s not merely the FBI in J6, it’s also the Capitol Police and DoJ involved. The prosecution of these people is a grave injustice.

Who could begrudge us the odd overseas jaunt or outing to a nice buffet in the little time we have left?
I mean, we’ve earned it, sacrificing our life expectancy for a few meagre joyful moments before we are gonski.
I suspect the real punishment would be attending struth’s gigs for the rest of your natural life – and having to stay for after work drinks with the audience. And having to move to Queensland.

Ayers Rock/Uluru?
Queensland is a rather bland and feminine name.
Tasmania is okay.
New South Wales you can’t change. It’s quirky and silly. It is the foundation polity of the whole place. It’s world famous.
Aotearoa is a snow job. It’s the north island. Not the whole country.
The problem with Aboriginal place names is so much of the language is lost, there are a lot of fraudulent “experts” making up their own LOTR “Aboriginese”.
Hence I don’t trust them being renamed.
There is also a tender for wokies to get a hard on for the more unpronounceable names.
Tallangatta

There are some shockers out there. I have no idea how to spell them.
I’d still call Uluru Ayers Rock but people younger than literally don’t know what it is.

You really don’t need to “keep” records such as receipts etc if you have a real estate agent. I own commercial junk and agents maintain all the records of expenses egg etc. The earnings go into your bank account and tagged with their origin. Those are almost all the records you need.
I’d say Ayers Rock is used still more than the other name. However like you said if they get it to catch on in the younger crowd.
Speaking of which, I wonder how their tourist number are going after COVID and the climb closure?

No question, they’d find him quite funny up in that malaria riddled shithole.
Given their shape, the “olgas” sounds like yet another euphemism for breasts.
There’s more of a chance this would have happened in NZ as the indig population is closer to 20%. Rarely, if I ever mention it, I still would call it Ayers Rock.
A lot of American city names are Indian. I think Chicago is one I think.

That ancient ALP Stooge that abused Scotty the other day is described as an Age Pensioner and a Disability Pensioner.
It appears that Disability Pensioners don’t revert to the Age Pension once the become eligible, but continue on the DSP for life.
This arsehole was whining about only having $700/week to blow after his Dust Diseases Pension was deducted, yet a factory worker or farm worker on minimum Wage supporting a family wouldn’t even have that much left after PAYE Tax.
The video is highly recommended viewing. The Kamel trying not to burst into another round of goblinesque cackling is a nice touch.

Quenthland is, for the most part, quite nice. Had some hot AF chicks in it, but nowhere near the ratio of WA.
The people in it are also, for the most part, quite nice. It’s a damn shame they’re all poorly tainted by a handful of desperadoes who insist using them all as an androgynous group to promote themselves, with the said handful hiding in the back.

Critical Grooming Theory
Neil Shenvi @NeilShenvi
Apr 6
“Critical Grooming Theory”
When some people hear “groomer,” they immediately apply a Western, individualistic lens. But they fail to realize that “grooming” is a systemic, structural problem deeply embedded in our “ways of knowing.”
A thread. 1/
When I, as a Critical Gooming Theorist (CGT) say that all progressives are groomers, I’m not saying that they personally support grooming, as defined by the dictionary. I’m saying that they benefit politically from “systems of advantage” that harm children. 2/
When a progressive is offended that he’s called a “groomer,” that is a symptom of “groomer fragility.” He needs to sit with his discomfort and do the work to understand the lived experience of children and detrans folk who are harmed by systemic grooming. 3/
A lot of progressives think there is a category of “not groomer.” But one is either “groomer” or “anti-groomer.” Being “not groomer” is just a way to perpetuate systemic grooming. 4/
Grooming is one of many interlocking systems of oppression. One cannot be anti-groomer if one is a communist. One cannot be anti-groomer if one is a feminist. To be “anti-groomer” it to recognize the intersections of your communist, feminist, progressive privilege. 5/
Superficial change is insufficient. CGT shows that systemic grooming has been baked into supposedly neutral, objective ideas like “expressive individualism,” “identity,” and “social justice” from our nation’s founding. Dismantling it requires fundamental social transformation 6/
Is this thread satire? Yes. But it’s a satire based on statements and reasoning taken nearly verbatim from the Critical Social Justice literature (e.g. Kendi, DiAngelo, Adams, Collins, etc.). CSJ is fundamentally flawed, cynical, and deconstructive. It is a universal acid. 7/
If this thread frustrates you, good. It should. It shows why we need to reject CSJ. It will poison our discourse and tear to shreds the very fabric of our society. Maybe rethink how you’ve been redefining words like “racism,” “bigotry,” whiteness,” and “Christian nationalism.” 8/
If you’ve been drinking the Kool-Aid of CSJ language and ideology, it’s time to wake-up. They’re a dead-end. You don’t have to choose between embracing CSJ and embracing actual racism/sexism/injustice. You can and must reject both. 9/9
It appears that Disability Pensioners don’t revert to the Age Pension once the become eligible, but continue on the DSP for life.
“Rorters” have the choice to swap to the OAP when eligible .. no real difference other than O/S travel benefits (OAP O/S travel 6 weeks before pension affected (energy supplement, around $80 a fortnight, stops), rorters O/S travel .. entire pension cut off after 2 weeks ) .. your not eligible for NDIS once you reach OAP age so unless you want to travel O/S doesn’t matter much …
A thoroughly excellent tale about some wrens.

Don’t know if he is Triple Vaccinated [course he fucking is] but it might be worthwhile if Scotty prorogues Parliament for a coupla years …
Supposed to have been a Country Party politician, on the campaign trail, way back when, who had a similar confrontation with an angry constituent.
“See me after the meeting and I’ll have some answers for you then.”
After the meeting
“Listen, you useless old fool. You ever try and show me up like that, in public again, and I’ll knock your fvcking block off.”
your not eligible for NDIS once you reach OAP age so unless you want to travel O/S doesn’t matter much
Huh?
My point was that DSP continues after Age Pension eligibility is reached.

Labor held Maranoa til 1975, so:
give us a name, or an approximate date, or you’re lying again.
And Gin Palaces.
Going north, the last usable beach year-round for humans is Noosa. Following the coastline, the next usable beach year-round is Cable Beach at Broome — provided the crocs, sharks and stingers don’t get you.
A Tea House served Cannabis Sativa Tea.
There were hundreds in Sydney and Melbourne alone until Legislation closed them in the 1920s.
JC, dude!
Being banned from attending Oscars ceremonies is terrible, just terrible. What a ghastly punishment!
Dont fret, they will probably give the goodie bag to his wifes new root to drop off so he has something to play with while he ignores the screaming and thumping noises coming from the house while hes resting in his cuck shed.
