Why the Silence on Lockdowns?

I had noticed that heinous bat crud has completely vanished from sight, at least if you are following the election campaign. The silence from the pollies is deafening.

Which is interesting.

. But fruit and vegetables and met went up by an even steeper pace after floods
. China lockdowns are set to make imported goods even more expensive in 2022
. Wholesale electricity prices have also more than doubled during the past year

If Musk doesn’t succeed with his twitter bid, he’ll have 10bill cash from recent Tesla sales burning a hole in his pocket.
Wonder what he’ll do with that.

Apple, Google and Microsoft will be getting a bit worried even though they are so much bigger than him. Musk has come a long way, obviously surrounds himself with the right people. He doesn’t seem caught up with existing business structures. Wouldn’t be surprised if he uses AI for problem solving. Imagine if he was in Microsoft, it might actually be a good product. Still can’t find a good browser that will search for what I want. Its just advertising. Most of the time nothing to do with what I searched on.

They are all too often intellectually arrogant, which makes them vulnerable to spiritual subversion: they presume their education and in-group consensus makes them invulnerable to deception.

This is not new. It happens in all ages and at all times.

It happens in all ages and at all times.

That said, it doesn’t hurt to be reminded from time to time, as C.S. Lewis will attest.

Yikes!

This is the sort of nonsense that will be cited every time a decent conservative puts his/her head above the parapet.

Did you bother to read the whole article or just the bit I excerpted?

Yes, I did read the whole thing.

There was a good article at Taki’s recently about the bombastic rightists who claim that it’s all the fault of ‘the system’ – which they can’t overthrow but sure enjoy making a career of whining about it. Like the poor, they are always with us.

Scottish Cop……………

A London lawyer runs a stop sign and gets pulled over by a Scottish cop. He thinks that he is smarter than the cop because he is a lawyer from LONDON and is certain that he has a better education than any Scottish cop. He decides to prove this to himself and have some fun at the Scottish cop’s expense!

Scottish cop says, “License and registration, please.”

London Lawyer says, “What for?”

Scottish cop says, “Ye didnae come to a complete stop at the stop sign.”

London Lawyer says, “I slowed down, and no one was coming.”

Scottish cop says, “Ye still didnae come to a complete stop. License and registration, please”

London Lawyer says, “What’s the difference?”

Scottish cop says, “The difference is, ye huvte come to complete stop, that’s the law. License and registration, please!”

London Lawyer says, “If you can show me the legal difference between slow down and stop, I’ll give you my license and registration and you give me the ticket. If not, you let me go and don’t give me the ticket.”

Scottish cop says, “Sounds fair. Exit your vehicle, sir.”

The London Lawyer exits his vehicle.

The Scottish cop takes out his baton and starts beating the lawyer. After several minutes he says, “Daeye want me to stop or just slow down? “

as going to ask what the hell are these people buying, and then had a look at the bill. The “organic” and “macro” goods would have added at least 30% to the total cost (and quite possibly more). “Macro Almond Kernels” $13, WTF?

Yep, TheirABC always manages to find people who are ‘allergic’ to ordinary foodstuffs and therefore are entitled to expensive alternatives at taxpayers’ expense.

The flip side could also happen.
They try break Tether & fail.
Nothing worse than being a crowded trade & it blows up in your face.
A lot of very smart people holding their breath right now.
Not because they have exposure.
It’s because of the ol’ Rummy saying:

I have often wondered about those chemtrails.
I have a position on those.

Some of the better lines from an article about an ongoing trial in the UK:

He…took the stand and declared: ‘Bodies are not inherently male or female. They are just their bodies.’

The activist’s mother, solicitor and dog all had to be present at the tribunal to provide ‘support’ — requirements that were apparently sprung upon the court without warning.

Stonewall is saying that no one has the right to question the presence of a naked and obviously male interloper in a female changing room.

My only concern was his labelling Hinch a ‘journalist’.

Not sure.
It was more the fact that his jumping and screeching increased in intensity the more people ignored him.

Bloody hell.
The lack of self awareness here is staggering.

Any of you want to go back and look at how many times I was mentioned here since I left?

And who’s doing the mentioning?

It isn’t me they detest, after all , I ‘m a really nice bloke, ….to know me is to love me.
Sure I call a spade a spade and suffer hypocrites and “low lifes” with tickets on themselves, ready to justify their traitorous, cowardly , selfish behaviour, and excuse it away in denialism, but that’s just me.
They detest anyone speaking the truth.

Scrolling back, we note again the insanity of the women’s approach to our nation’s problems (caused by the emasculation of the nation in the first place), and the betas and scum males who bent over for government tyranny.

Question.
Is being a man about how big and tough you are, or is it about standing up for what is right?
Showing women folk who operate on a totally different level, more akin to socialism through their natural submissive nature………….that when shit gets serious, they need to STFU for a while?

Looking at voting patterns throughout the west, before elections became the fraudulent theatre they are today, it was noted that without the female vote, not one western country would have a left wing government.

Not one.

I wasn’t sexist when I was younger.
As a toxic masculine , middle aged cause of all the world’s woes according to women, (who replaced us with government for security…how’s that working out for you, you dumb bints?), I fucking am now.
Don’t get me wrong.
I love and adore women, IN THEIR PLACE, and anyone who thinks we aren’t suffering from an emasculated west and the ensuing “Hysterics” of women who feel threatened, look at the education system.
Look anywhere.

And the Lazy beta males of the west, too afraid of the weaker sex to stand up to them, to calm them down, to challenge the emotional insanity, and take charge, for the values your father instilled in you.
Values that bring peace.
Soft men equals hard times.

Who is the red-lipped cutie standing behind Albo as he blathers on in QLD?

Actually, why are nearly all the major parties and most of the minor parties candidates women?

It’s a very good question that can only be answered truthfully by stating that those parties know fucktard women vote for genitalia.
There is no other reason.
Sexism.
Straight out, policy ignorant sexism.
Therefore, they should be banned from voting until properly educated in civic responsibility.

A note on Leak’s work, as published this morning:

A low-value, reconstituted loud communist illiterate like Albanese should never be getting anywhere near twenty 2PP points of anyone. Absolutely anyone.

All Morrison would have had to do was point at the other team and say ‘Just look at this abhorrent shambles. Just fucking look at the state of it’ and adjourned to the pool room. But he can’t, and he won’t.

Morrison will lose. Even if he holds a minority government, he loses. If he’s reliant on independents, he loses.

It won’t be because of the bushfire response, or the flood response, or the economy, or renewables or reliance on the inscrutable dry cleaners or putting our strategic fuel reserves on the other side of the planet. It will be this:

Scott Morrison deliberately enabled an assortment of feudal State Labor premiers to continue lockdowns – thus destroying jobs, lives, livelihoods, businesses and family groups – by feeding an endless supply of cash to people banned from going to work – thus reducing the incentive for said people to jack up, and also handing limitless power to unelected mid-level bureaucrats who unsurprisingly used it to build empires and pursue their individual agendas.

He could have avoided all this with the stroke of a pen, but he didn’t. It was a monstrous betrayal, and that’s why. People never forget.

You realise you’ve just plonked yourself into the Scientific Materialists that Matrix linked to, don’t you?

This shotgun approach isn’t working out for you at all.

Morning tea must have been sub-par.

Sounds like the old style diets of no carbs and no fats. What’s so special?

It’s keto? 😛

In all seriousness, I think the name is the faddish bit. The concept of feeding yourself only complex nutrients like protein that take more effort and energy to digest and make usable forces your body to expend more of its fat reserves is not new. It’s been around in various iterations, stemming from the old Banting method in the 1860s.

The history is fascinating.

On the subject of Chemtrails:

Chemtrails are bullshit.

But Boeing Bombs are real…

Any of you Cats know what bores holes through plaster sheets?
Our rental house has a small patch of elongated holes in the laundry just above the skirts. Not termites as the wood is not effected.

Ha ha, yes.
Not surprisingly, I think chemtrail conspiracy theorists sit at about 93.1 on the International Nutjob scale.
What was funny was the story I linked to tried a kind of “voice of reason” angle. It dismissed chemtrail poisoning and mind-control as just silly. The real purpose of chemtrails was as a missile shield.
According to two unnamed “former military men”.
Riiight.

Had guy that was like that, went with the boss to repossess company stuff after he was sacked. I was there to provide muscle if it turned ugly. As it turned out he didn’t look at me once, just the boss and the sky. Wouldn’t take his meds often enough. Sometimes wonder if they don’t like reality, coz he was okay when on them. Also as it turned out the boss kept employing suss people. The accounts lady who was on the large side, brilliant at her job, he never had so much money. Anyway , turns out he didn’t like fat people and complained to me she read his private emails on the office system. I suggested he didn’t use the office system for private stuff, he said it was his. We parted company.

Alternatively, do or did the tenants have a small terrier or moggy of any sort who might like getting at anything in the walls?

Hmm.

Would have preferred Langer just as a ‘fuck you’ to Cricket Australia, but near enough (the Hun):

Former New Zealand captain Brendon McCullum was Thursday named as the new coach of England’s Test side in a bid to shake the team out of its deep malaise.

Enormous cred, and no slouch. The Poms need everything they can get.

Step forward Julia Gillard.

spot on- as much as I loathe Chilla and Wills I would prefer them to some vile retread from our despicable political class.

‘Journalist’ was the AEC occupation, presumably from his application. It doesn’t look like the AEC were particularly fussy. One of the independents put himself as the founder of is organisation. A neat way of giving a clue about your policy, except almost no one would see it.

Norm Macdonald Shot Secret Final Netflix Stand-Up Special Before Passing

Netflix will release the surprise program — Norm Macdonald: Nothing Special‚ on May 30.

I found a very small clear winged insect below the holes but that may be a coincidence or the adult of the grub involved.

Some form of beetle then, possibly?

There’s chewed dust under the holes but not fine like termites. I found a very small clear winged insect below the holes but that may be a coincidence or the adult of the grub involved.

Sounds like borer in the studs. They will eat through plaster as well. Get a thin long screwdriver and poke through the plaster on the angle into the bottom plate and go either way till you get to the studs. Just because the skirting is of doesn’t rule out termites.

It’s interesting to consider Monty turd’s earlier comment ‘you lot hate change’ when change is what most informed commentators here want- smaller government, lower taxes, affordable housing and a end to mass migration and multiculturalism. Pretty much what Trump was on about.

Immigration can be good when talented people who can contribute come here. It’s not good when it’s used to suppress wages and pump up the welfare bill (Cloward-Piven which I bet they learn about at the ANU).

The change that is coming… you lot won’t like it.

If you want smaller government and lower taxes, you should be welcoming Albo replacing Morrison. Recent LNP administrations have been the highest taxing, biggest governments in Australian history.

But of course you will squeal like pigs when Albo does anything.

Dad played 1st grade when he was 16. Took 78 for 76 in a season. In those days they said he was too young to play any higher, so he told them to piss off. Never played except social. When the club had their anniversary they asked him to come along as the Best Player they ever had. F off.

Natasha Fyles is the new Chief Monster for the Northern Territory.

Oh for fuck’s sake. From TE’s link:

Ms Fyles is from the left faction of the party, while Mr Gunner was from the right faction. In a party room vote, Ms Fyles had the advantage of not being known as Mr Gunner’s “wing woman” – Mr Gunner’s nickname for Ms Manison [the Police Minister].

Fyles had the Health portfolio, which was directly responsible for squandering untold millions of both NT and Federal cash. She was a massive fan of unlimited lockdowns not that long ago.

However – an acquaintance had a brief convo with her after she’d acted in the role of Chief Minister for a week. He said she looked drained and paler than usual.

He asked her how the role was. She said, ‘It’s fucked’.

The general mail was that she didn’t want the job, so I’m putting this down to the competitive girl thing – ie, someone else wants it, so I must have it.

He could have avoided all this with the stroke of a pen, but he didn’t. It was a monstrous betrayal, and that’s why. People never forget.

Totally agree. One could argue that a Shorten government would have done the same damn thing, but that’s what you expect from the ALP. It does what it says on the tin. The Liberal Party is supposed to be liberal – let’s not forget it first won government on a platform of dismantling the war-time measures and restrictions that were still in place in 1949 as well as abandoning Chifley’s plan to nationalise the banks etc. Menzies won that election, and ended the rationing etc. The Liberals genuinely did liberalise the country in some regards.

Today, the LNP stands for nothing apart from remaining in power. In what way is it liberal? In what way is it conservative? How are the outcomes it delivers different from those of your average ALP government? How does the lesser of two evils logic work with the LNP? At least Labor doesn’t pretend to be something it’s not.

It is a recurring topic that I have never really kept track of, but in passing my sister made a reference to the keto diet saying her husband was looking at trying it out.

That is the first I have come across it outside these august pages.

So, I gather it is about avoiding carbs and eating shit loads of protein – fish, meat – and salads. No bread, no potato, and (scare music please) no grog!

Eggs would be in but only poached and boiled?

Sounds like the old style diets of no carbs and no fats. What’s so special?

Yeah maybe. Keto diets work very well for some people. Depending on age before going down the big protein road a kidney check is worth doing.

Crime Family – Hiden Biden and his CrackHead Son – WFB: Contrary to WH Denial, Safe Smoking Kits Include Crack Pipes

BIDEN ADMINISTRATION

Yes, Safe Smoking Kits Include Free Crack Pipes. We Know Because We Got Them.

Free Beacon Investigates: Five cities, five free crack pipes

Crack pipes are distributed in safe-smoking kits up and down the East Coast, raising questions about the Biden administration’s assertion that its multimillion-dollar harm reduction grant program wouldn’t funnel taxpayer dollars to drug paraphernalia.

The findings are the result of Washington Free Beacon visits to five harm-reduction organizations and calls to over two dozen more. In fact, every organization we visited—facilities in Boston, New York City, Washington, D.C., Baltimore, and Richmond, Va.—included crack pipes in the kits.

That Wong chap just announced one of Liebor’s first acts is to appoint a First Nations person as an Ambassador to Australia.
