No, I’m just being pessimistic that Philadelphia’s cheating will seal the deal for the stroke victim. I read they sent out 240K postal votes that weren’t requested. If that’s true the retard will win.
Polls are showing it’s neck and neck on Real Clear Politics, which means Oz is likely ahead by 5. They will manufacture 5% of the votes in Philly.
Story 3 in one day:
A witness to the Daniel Andrews family car crash has detailed the traumatic moments in the aftermath of the accident.
Jane Crittenden, now 66, was first on the scene when the Andrews’ family Ford Territory struck teenage bike rider Ryan Meuleman in Blairgowrie in January 2013.
She spoke out for the first time on Thursday, as Mr Andrews refused to answer more than 15 questions related to the incident after the Herald Sun revealed that Ryan had engaged lawyers and was disputing the Premier and his wife’s claims about the circumstances surrounding the crash.
“I’ve canvassed these matters in great detail and I’ve got no further comment to make,” Mr Andrews said, shooting down suggestions his refusal to address Ryan’s concerns made him look unsympathetic.
Ms Crittenden said she almost drove into the back of the Andrews’ family car after turning the corner and seeing the then 15-year-old Ryan lying on the road.
“I came around the corner and almost drove into the back of them,” Ms Crittenden recalled on Thursday.
“They had hit this child who was lying on the road and my instinct was just to go straight to that child, so I got out and ran over.
“A local resident had come out, too, because it was a big hit. His bike was smashed up. The wheels were all bent, it was a mess.
“I grabbed a towel from out of my car and put it under his head because it was a burning hot day. And I had a black umbrella over him just to shield him and give him some comfort and care when you are lying on burning hot asphalt.”
Ms Crittenden recalled Mr Andrews, the then Opposition Leader, telling her that his wife had been driving the car and that she was “traumatised”.
“I had no idea who Dan Andrews was, he meant nothing to me in those days, but he must have told me the number of the house where they were staying down the road … because later, I found their house and I knocked on the door,” Ms Crittenden said.
“I said, ‘Listen, I just want to tell you – I think he’s going to be okay and I can’t imagine how traumatised you must feel’ and she (Cath) came up the passageway and gave me a big hug and said thank you so much.”
Ms Crittenden said she returned to Ryan’s home in Blairgowrie about three weeks later to “see how he was going”.
“And I got the inference that after all the trauma had settled down that possibly they had spoken to friends and thought, ‘Oh my god, this should have been dealt with differently’. And that was the last I ever had to do with it.”
Asked about Ryan’s claim that Mr and Mrs Andrews were “yelling at each other” and slow to assist him, she said: “I don’t think they were down on their knees helping, no, but I was only concerned about the child. I was focusing on him. That’s where my zone was.
“His (Ryan’s) sister appeared because that’s how I got his address and she was screaming and yelling.”
After Ryan was taken away in an ambulance, Ms Crittenden said she placed the smashed up bicycle in the back of her car, along with his helmet and backpack, and drove it to the family home.
Pressed on whether Mr Andrews and his wife had assisted Ryan at the crash scene, she said: “No. I don’t remember them helping … they were probably quite clearly concerned about their kids … I don’t ever remember them being down on their hands and knees doing too much. I think he (Andrews) would have been focusing on his children and his wife.”
She also recalled the car being moved from the scene.

“The Guy Who Showers With His Daughter Is Telling You You’re a Bad Person” – Tucker Carlson Roasts Joe Biden after Disgusting Union Station Speech
Tucker Carlson:
They’re vicious, they’re intolerant, and they are utterly corrupt. And above all they are incompetent. In less than two years it is not an overstatement to say they have run this country into the ground. Wrecking our economy, desecrating our military, and opening the borders of the United States to 5 million lawbreakers. The destruction they brought is so profound it’s hard to describe.
So of course there will be consequences for that… How could this party stay in power?
Tonight Joe Biden traveled across the City of Washington to Union Station… Built by Teddy Roosevelt more than 100 years ago, Union Station was for generations one of the most beautiful public buildings in this country. Under Joe Biden it has become a homeless encampment. A place that is too filthy and too dangerous for Starbucks.
Standing at this monument to his own failures Biden proceeded to do what he commonly does, bark at the rest of us for our moral failures. The guy who showered with his daughter is telling you, you’re a bad person .
Tucker then proceeded to break down Joe Biden’s demented speech including his signaling that the election fix is in.
They need names, postmarks, signatures. Not impossible but harder than having people fill one or two mail-in votes they got from previous occupiers of that same property.
Andrews being pressed on his old hit and run in print and in press conferences now, the victim and eye witnesses speaking out all of a sudden. I doubt the Libs have the ticker to ‘play the man’ like this, could it be Labor attempting to ditch him?

Another two women that the BBC featured on their OS program overnight perhaps illustrate a few things about politics in the USA and the way the lefty media organise their daily agitprop chook feed for the unwary.
Instead of acknowledging that even Democrat women are pissed off with the Biden regime, particularly in respect of scandalous education revelations, and cost of living explosions, they found two women who were married to Republican voting men, but remained dedicatees of the Dems.
They said things like “the conservatives don’t give due consideration to LGBT issues, or abortion rights” and “conservative men like things to stay the same because it favours men”.

Both look to be in desperate need of a decent feed.
“The backlash against Obama’s leftist policies brought us the unabashed patriot, Donald Trump. But by the time Trump was inaugurated, the cancer from Obama’s eight years in office had done its damage, and many in the federal government had become fully engaged members in the cult of progressivism.”

The school board issue, with it’s focus on LGBTQI+ perversions, such as books in the school libraries explaining to children the technicalities and joys of anal sex and how to use the app “Grindr”, has hit Dearborn Michigan in a big way. Dearborn has the biggest community of Muslim Arabs in North America. The Muslims of Dearborn aren’t turning the other cheek to this indoctrination of their children and are taking on the school districts. It’ll be interesting to see how this effects their votes.

Is Biden Senile or a Pathological Liar?
George Will savages Joe Biden in the Washington Post:
Meeting recently with some progressive activists, Biden said his $426 billion student loan forgiveness was accomplished by “a law” that he had “just signed”: “I got it passed by a vote or two.” No. He. Did. Not.
Biden was not merely again embellishing his achievements. This is not just another of his verbal fender benders. There is no less-than-dismaying explanation for his complete confusion. What vote? Who voted?
Will’s conclusion is that Biden is senile:
It is frightening that Biden does not know, or remember, what he recently did regarding an immensely important policy. He must be presumed susceptible to future episodes of similar bewilderment.
That’s one possibility. The other is that Joe Biden is a pathological liar.
There is no third option.
Yes there is – Joe Biden is Senile & a Pathological Liar
From the Comments
– Why does it have to be one or the other? Biden is obviously both!
– Embrace the genius of “AND”
– There is a third option. He is a senile pathological liar.
– Manchurian Joe, no friend of Corn Pop, Sniffer in Chief, looking to take down Trump behind the bleachers, should have been locked in his basement after the election.

Can’t even begin to describe how annoyed I am about the decision by those labore deadshits to dump those stinking ISIS slags in various outer suburban areas – including areas with significant numbers of people who were among those persecuted by those monstrous medieval imbeciles.
The braindead lamestream meeja’s water carrying for labore is also both embarrassing and infuriating. Here’s two snippets from chipple jay news this morning:
– Bringing the ISIS slags and their progeny back decreases security risks for Australians (yes, that stupid labore bint O’Neill actually said this)
– The ISIS slags were tricked into going to the muddle east
Absolutely bloody disgusting and infuriating. There is no excuse for this appalling act of bastardry.
Speaking of weight gain/loss, the caustic Kiwi commentator Bart Kay (who likes to savage the vego gurus) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChi5M3k_K4yuRpWAp00xBQA gave me an interesting insight about *why* you can, somewhat paradoxically, revert to a healthy weight by eating calorie dense foods – its because the ‘stable weight = balance between calories in and calories out’ argument is a lie.
Calories are *heat* units, they are what you get if you burn fuel. Problem is, your body does not burn food, it chemically dismembers it, and makes use of it as it will. It turns some of the resultant raw materials into fat, some into protein, some into carbs, and some is used to generate ATP, which is the body’s energy currency.
It is the metabolic pathway that turns carbs into fat which is the principle reason why high carb diets (correction – anything other than very low carb diets) tend to cause fat gain. This is why you *can* lose weight by starving yourself (sorry – ‘dieting’) but this will be regained when you stop. Kay makes the point that longterm starvation is NOT a recipe for weight control, but consuming the right food is.
In my case, largely eliminating carbs and going to a carnivore diet resulted in a 16kg weight loss, moderation of most of my chronic inflammatory ‘co-morbidities’ (eczema, irritable lungs, achy muscles and joints, hypertension) and NO HUNGER.
Worth considering.
Anyone who has read The Journeyer will find Al Goodwyn’s cartoon extra saucy.

Following on from Cassie’s comment about US school boards, in the States recently driving through five states, it was interesting to see the numerous signs – big, small, and with many varieties – in many places for the local board elections.
They are powerful entities, and from my vague understanding could be constituted as the replacement for the state curriculum organisations we have here in each state.
Apparently they have a lot of control over content, and many are becoming energised by a pushback against the radical subject-matter which has been pushed into them by the “alphabet people” – as one local scornfully categorised the radicals to us.

One Australian Senator says that there should be an immediate stoppage of the continuing vaccine roll out and calls for a Royal Commission into the whole saga.
Transcript of Speech to Australian Senate by Senator Malcolm Roberts (1)
“As a servant to the people of Queensland and Australia, I note that at the European parliament inquiry into COVID two weeks ago, Janine Small, the President of International Developed Markets for Pfizer, revealed that the Pfizer vaccine injection was never tested to see if it would prevent transmission—never tested. Small went on to say this was because Pfizer had to work at the speed of science. Well, it seems the speed of science and the velocity of money are the same thing. Shameful decisions were taken deliberately to facilitate big pharma getting their injections to market in time. The mouthpiece media have the same large investment funds on their share register as big pharma. It’s no surprise the mouthpiece media amplified the COVID scare, doubling down on fear porn and demonizing anyone who clung to ‘my body, my choice’, just so the media’s shareholders could line their pockets with tens of billions of dollars in windfall profits.”

Democrats Turn 2022 Into ‘1984’
From the Comments
– ‘I’ve always been clever. I recently got a jigsaw puzzle that said 3-5 years on the box, but I finished it in only 6 months.’ – AOC
– Biden’s speech, last night, was crafted to set the stage for Democrat Election Fraud.
He said that the results in some races might not be known for several days and that we are not allowed to exercise our RIGHT to question the results.
If the results aren’t known for several days, it will be because it will take that much time for democrats to create the fictitious votes they need to overcome their losses.
– The real 1984 part of all this is the Intercept’s story about government colluding with social media to spread their narrative and suppress any challenges. I’m sure the Dems have been coordinating with the MSM for decades, but the ability to erase dissent is a new level. The spin and gaslighting becomes more outrageous because they know they can just delete any challenge.
First I’ve heard of it. Another example of turning ordinary punters into criminals:

And, why the exception for directors of indig corporations? If anything, they have much more contact with gubba than your average director of a mom and pop company.
There are heaps of small family companies which were set up to manage, for example, a small property portfolio or a single shop/restaurant. There are heaps of people (especially oldies) who are directors of forgotten, dormant companies. The ATO is about to be in a position to slug them with fines because of this obscure (in the sense that it is not well known) new requirement.
No doubt they will assure everyone that they will not be heavy handed in enforcing this rule.
Yeah, right.
As usual, the socialist bureaucracy punishes everybody to hide their poor performance at prosecuting the few. The identities of those behind phoenix builders and developers should not be difficult to find, given a passable degree of smarts and diligence. But no, all must suffer and more jobs are created for bureaucrats.

I went carno and the weight fell off. My sense of hunger very much disappeared, I feel better, and my energy is fine. Reducing carbs works for our culture because we spend so much time sitting down\still. When they look at other cultures for ideas they are making a huge mistake because hunter gatherers are much more active and people who live in the “blues zones”(longevity clusters) are also more active. They consume carbs but burn the carbs before those are converted into fat.
It is chemically more energy expensive to use fats as an energy source. I’m not confident that’s the whole answer. I suspect the appetite loss has something to do with the leptin\ghrelin balance(two hormones that regulate appetite). Fats and proteins having a more favourable impact for hunger management than carbs. I’d also like to see studies on white\brown fat ratios because our bodies can change the fat storing cells to a brown fat mode which is used to generate heat rather than just for energy storage.
For athletes though carbs are a better energy source. It is possible to train and compete on keto\carno but those diets rob the athlete of that final and vital edge of peak performance.
I don’t think a carno diet is something to do all the time because plants provide valuable nutrients but I’m conflicted because the results are so good and I notice that when I indulge in carbs my hunger urge surges. The trick is to go for low carb plant foods. If you’re not moving through the day avoid carbs. If you’re continually on the move, even walking, carbs aren’t that much of a problem.

I was under the impression that might have been a widespread excuse for slavery in the west.
I’m reading a pdf titled ‘Catholics and the Negro’ on Jstor originally published in 1917 which claims the Catholic church in the West Indies and South America were the greatest opponents of slavery.
yeah. Burn it to the ground rather than let him have it.

There are people who have tested that and it is bullshit. See Dr Noakes.

Different athletes, different diets.

When did whiteness go from being a synonym for bland & lame to the source of all evil?
Ta-Nehisi Coates’s statement that whiteness was the source of Trump’s power, perhaps?
I’ve read studies in sports medicine which argue the case. Physiologically it makes sense that carbs are an optimal energy source for high intensity exercise. Carbs promote a faster restoration of muscle glycogen stores. Fat oxidation is more energetically expensive. Athletes and coaches all over the world recognise this and use carb loading a standard practice prior to training and competing to optimise glycogen stores as quickly as a possible. We don’t see athletes stuffing themselves with lard during competitions, they use carbs for that. I’d rather rely on the known physiology and practices of people who are competing rather than one authority figure.
That relates to the AGE-RAGE nexus. Advanced Glycation products attach to the Receptor for AGE products which create inflammation. Sugar coated proteins and lipids(AGE products) generate a strong inflammatory pulse. Additionally inflammatory mediating cells rely on glycolysis(sugar generated energy apart from mitochondria generated energy) to generate inflammatory producing molecules.
you really need to look the evolutionary diet of caucasian or race in question to understand what diet is best. northern european winters are harsh and the seasons dictated what foods are available and how those nutrients where used by the body. imo ppl of northern European decent should follow a seasonal diet rather than one diet year round.
might be funny to you sandshoo but ppl are dying, ppl who foolishly trusted and believed government lies and big pharma propaganda.
Go woke, lose form.
Ricky Ponting has backed calls for an underperforming Pat Cummins to be dropped from Australia’s T20 side.
Across the seasons there are some very subtle changes in our physiology but these are largely offset by lifestyle and dietary considerations. I saw a lecture where a bod argued that continual intake of plant foods can be problematic because of the sustained intake of some problematic agents(eg oxalate). I’m not confident about that argument, it probably comes down to individual differences.
It’s even worse than that.
People are dying who were coerced mercilessly by the government against their wishes, and better judgement.
One thing is abundantly clear.
The human brain needs animal fats to function at its best.
Fast bowlers should never be captain. The required mindsets for the two jobs are incompatible.
Mostly because of DHA, absent in plants. DHA is a substrate for some endocannabinoids which have an anti-inflammatory effect and is also a substrate for a neuroprotectant molecule. DHA is not used as an energy source. Brains love sugar and even on a carno\keto diet our bodies will maintain plasma glucose levels. If not bad shit happens.
I mentioned recently how powerful teachers are in getting their woke message across to students.
Here is a headline from today’s Daily Telegraph which points in the same direction:

A question to test grammar that asks about ‘dirty’ coal has been accused of trying to brainwash primary school-aged children.

Townhall, by Kurt Schlichter
Agree 100%. Allowing kids to be surgically rendered infertile before the age of 21 is evil. You can’t smoke, drive or drink but you can be influenced by peer pressure to undergo life-destroying medical changes, and the Left will fall over themselves to help you do it. Hell is going to be a serious surprise for a lot of these enablers.
After many years of reading about weight loss, I can assure you that there are many different methods with one common aspect – medical science supports each different approach.
I am quite confused.
The Australian stats for the first half of 2022 indicate that cancer, dementia & diabetes account for most of the non-covid related excess deaths. As a few public health specialists have courageously stated (courageous because they risk professional ostracism by doing so), this is most likely due to the effect of lockdowns on cancer screening, the standard of care in nursing homes and isolation.

Peer pressure, societal pressure, groupthink, going along with the cool kids – all aspects of the elephant in the room that is being studiously ignored by the MSM and the wokerati.

As am I. One of my longstanding criticisms of the research is that the results are statistical and using very large samples can wash out individual differences. For example, fat utilisation as an energy source may depend on carnitine availability. Carnitines are fatty acid transporters and is often used in so called fat burning supplements. There are the lucky ones who can maintain good weight despite eating lots of carbs and fats . There are people like me who put on weight at the sight of a donut.

The hacking of ‘Delta’ troop control programme proves that all-technology is not a panacea
Christelle Néan,Translation: Vz. yan
Donbass Insider
Thu, 03 Nov 2022
On 1 November 2022, the Telegram channel Joker DNR announced that it had hacked the ‘Delta’ programme currently used by Ukraine to coordinate its troops in the conflict against the Russian armed forces. This hacking is a perfect example of why relying on technology in military matters may not only be a panacea, but also a potential source of disaster.
A month ago, I published an article on the possibilities of evolution and improvement of the Russian army that I envisaged in the context of the ongoing conflict. After publication, I received many comments, including from my Russian colleagues. While some of them agreed with several of my proposals, I had a lengthy discussion with one of them about the fact that the Russian army lacked the high-tech coordination systems that the Ukrainian army has thanks to US support (see video below).
For him, this lack of real-time interactive maps, plotters, and other electronic systems was a handicap for the Russian army. For my part, I pointed out that these systems are fragile, that their operation can be prevented by multiple factors, that their security is difficult to maintain and that they are therefore a panacea only as long as everything works perfectly.
And the events of the following weeks proved my point. Just a few days after the publication of my article, Ukrainian soldiers reported communication problems with the Starlink system, which is used to coordinate the movements of Ukrainian troops via satellite internet link. As a result, the above-mentioned coordination of troops was already beginning to falter.
The final blow came from the Joker DNR channel, which announced that it had hacked into and taken control of the “Delta” programme used to coordinate Ukrainian troops on the ground. And when I say “taken control”, that’s really what it’s about.
Now this programme contains the positions of Ukrainian troops, their drones, their military equipment, their vehicles, all of which are tracked by GPS through plotters! Need I explain that all the little icons marked as Ukrainian troops on the Delta program turned into targets for Russian artillery, missile system crews, and aerospace forces? Clearly, the Delta programme once hacked turned into an ultra-accurate mega-spy for the Russian armed forces. Now that’s what I call scoring against your side!
And that’s not all. In its first message, Joker DNR also claims to have changed data in the Delta programme, to have access to other programmes used by Kiev, and to have infected all computers connected to the system. Clearly, Ukraine can no longer rely on the data in the Delta programme (friendly troops may have been marked as enemies and vice versa) or in other such programmes, and data leaks can continue even after the security flaws have been fixed, via infected computers. As Joker DNR says in the conclusion of his post, “sometimes it’s better to use paper maps”.
In view of what happened with the “high-tech” coordination of the Ukrainian troops, it is easier to understand why Russia preferred to stick to the good old paper maps that have been tried and tested for a long time, why it was right not to embark on this costly experiment, and why I did not recommend doing so.
If the ‘adults’ want to poison themselves, I’m all for it. Take as many clotshots as you can, please.
But forcing this shit on children is unforgivable.
There is increasing evidence that whilst being active is healthy and natural, you can do too much – and if you do there are mechanical costs – yes ancient humans were more active than we are now, but that didn’t mean they were ‘training’ at elite athlete level in day to day life. Present day athletes *might* be able to squeeze a little more performance on the day by doing unhealthy and unsustainable things (eg carb loading before a marathon) but that does not mean that is the optimal fuel or optimal metabolism. I would equate it to running your race engine on high octane fuel AND over -revving it – it might go a bit faster on the day, but don’t expect it to last for 70 years.
Nowadays, I try to mimic our eons of genetic programming – I eat mostly meat, mostly in the evenings and little carb. If I do eat carbohydrate, it is a natural fruit or above ground vegetable, and I regard it as an occasional cheat – say once or twice a week. Our ancestors got little carbohydrate at all until they learned to farm, which was only yesterday in evolutionary terms, and even then required lots of hard work to acquire.
Contrast to today where we eat multiple times a day, including very high proportions of refined sugars and seed oils.
IIRC there were a series of conferences between the Portuguese, Spanish
and Papal authorities which culminated in Sublimis Deus.
Deciding Africans didn’t have souls was part of the quid pro quo
to preserve Spain and Portugal’s commercial interests in the New World.
There was a movie made about it, possibly French, but the title eludes me.
Two things seem blindingly obvious to me now:
1) Long term calorie restriction (aka Starvation) CANNOT be the prime method of optimising weight, and if it was, why do so many dieters complain of hunger?
2) Weight balance = calories in – calories out must also be a GROSS SIMPLIFICATION – do you really think all those people who have stable weights can unconsciously balance that equation over years or decades?

Urk, the UniSyd alumni mag just arrived in my letterbox. I never asked for this wretched tome, it just started arriving one day, several decades after I attended.
Leafed through. The editorial just loves Albo and the Charles Perkins Centre, and said “we are agile”. The first article is about threatened koalas. Nope, binned.

What is not funny is people inventing tales of kids dropping like flies at schools.
Tales which can be so easily discredited.

By all means argue the case.
But don’t make shit up.
Carb loading is for athletes, especially endurance athletes. It works. Naturally high intensity exercise is not an optimal health choice but they are entitled to that choice. There is a furious debate about endurance athletes and heart problems and “athlete’s heart” is a well documented phenomenon. I know a sports medicine specialist and he told me that they spend a fortune on cardiac testing. It has been known for decades that endurance athletes experienced sudden cardiac related death. Intense exercise also generates inflammation. The interesting thing about that is studies where they administered antioxidants prior to training demonstrate a reduction in exercise related hormesis. The trick is to use antioxidants some hours after the exercise regime.
Nonetheless athletes of all stripes live longer and are healthier. That is perhaps moot given the general population propensity towards bad lifestyle habits.
Genetic programming shifts surprisingly quickly. Looking to our evolutionary history ignores that. Additionally it depends on our genetic heritage. Professor Michael Rose argues that is a cardinal for choosing our diet. The problem with the argument is we are mongrels with many different genetic inputs across the generations. Besides, hunter gatherers do not eat mostly meat, their diet varied according to circumstances and there is ample evidence they also ate plant food on a regular basis. Tubers were an especially important food source. Apart from that they had shorter lifespans than ours, were on the move all the time, and ate foods available in their local environment. They were adapted to their environment, not ours.

Broadly speaking, there are 2 forms of arthritis
1) Wear and tear arthritis, aka ‘osteo – arthritis’
2) Inflammatory arthritis – rheumatoid etc
I think the former is inevitable over time as all things wear out – even trees that are hundreds of years old eventually decay and die.
I think the latter is *strongly* influenced by diet because modern diet is a key driver of metabolic stress and inflammation (virtually all our chronic health problems have a strong inflammatory component – heart disease, diabetes, cancer, asthma, hypertension etc etc etc.
And the more I learn about the longterm effects of vaccines on the immune system, the more I am wondering how much this also contributes to auto -immune and inflammatory disorders. Paul Thomas opened my eyes to this (and like me, was hounded out of the profession for his heresy).
https://rumble.com/v1jnr8u-dr.-paul-thomas-shows-powerful-data-on-the-overall-health-of-vaxxed-vs-unva.html
The more I learn about the chronic effects of modern life on our bodies (sedentary lifestyle, artificial light/lack of sunlight/altered sleep wake cycles, diet and vaccines), the more obvious it is to me that our physiology is being attacked by a perfect storm of factors, and the explosion of chronic ill health should be no surprise.
Until the end of the queue becomes fun and relaxed, and they start producing stuff because no one told them that they are entitled to anything from anyone else – and suddenly others start to want to hang out at the end of the queue. Then Fiona will suddenly call that the front and try to banish straight white men to the other end.
Straight white men actually enjoy being straight white men. There was that Twitter site that JC used to link to occasionally. Fiona thinks that she can send these men away and the fun will remain in place so other people can enjoy it, and she thinks it is a conspiracy that they cannot.
