“I would hazard a guess that plenty of women that Cranky has met enjoy being actively single… but they don’t talk to people like her about it, so she’ll never know how they feel.”

Oh dear, the fat fascist fuckwit mansplaining women again, misogyny comes naturally to him. He knows what women think and what women want.

Go back to reading the Protocols…now that you’re an expert at.

Monty I meant to ask, in all seriousness, I saw an ad from the execrable sportsbet (fairly sure it was them) promoting fantasy sports betting.
If you havent seen the ad it might pay to look and see if its going to interfere with your business.

It would increase my audience if anything if it took off.

Daily fantasy sports has hit the wall in Australia. DraftKings pulled out this year to concentrate on its home US market, Moneyball dropped its fantasy offerings entirely and is now focusing on India, and DraftStars suffers from lack of marketing spend. Fantasy is just a drop in the ocean compared the rest of the gambling industry. The bookies use fantasy as a gateway for punters to direct them towards other established products, nothing more.

In news just in…

Actor Robert Clary died Wednesday at the age of 96.

The French-born actor was well-known for his portrayal as a prisoner of war in the television series Hogan’s Heroes. Clary drew inspiration from his own life, as he was a Holocaust survivor and the only one in his family of fourteen children to survive Auschwitz. He was interned there from the age of 16 to 18.

There’s no question that the rise of gambling advertising bled customers from traditional fantasy sports when it happened ten years ago. The size of the fantasy industry audience is about half of what it used to be. That effect is baked in now, though, and growth is steady at 2-5% per year.

Weinstein’s treatment in New York was alarming to say the least:

NYCPD detectives urged complainants to alter or delete messages on their phones with Weinstein, and:

He was charged with trafficking but they weren’t charged with solicitation or there wasn’t any coconspirator to Weinstein of an equal or lesser degree?

How can the john be his own pimp without a degree of cooperation from the working gals? Unless you believe totally in full blown communist idiocy like all relationships are abuses of power to some extent.

Large numbers of women want to be single and don’t want to be mothers

Wrong. Evolutionary biology has programmed a very different experience of sex for men and women. Women are very slow to warm up and have builtin hurdles to protect themselves from premature pregnancy, which from an evolutionary perspective means possible death for her and her baby. Men are quick to warm up, young men especially are very quick to warm up, there is virtually no evolutionary cost for getting a women pregnant.

When I was young I learnt that to get a woman really revved up required days, weeks and in the case of some women months of flirting, priming and neural training. At uni I found girls often complained that guys couldn’t make them orgasm. Nobody ever took the time and effort to get them to the boil. I never met a woman who couldn’t not only orgasm but multi-orgasm since women have no refractory period. Women have a much stronger sex drive than men, it just runs at a very different speed. If women didn’t have a strong sex drive the species would have died off long ago.

Women who engage in a lot of casual sex do so for lack of self esteem and because they have been lied to that they can behave just like men. Evolution says otherwise. Women are programmed to need the intimacy and the safety of a relationship, men are not.

Hookup culture is a not a satisfying experience for women.

Women do not want to be single, it’s another invention that flies in the face of reality, like just about everything else that comes from the woke.

Correct. Men can only climax once during sex. Once they ejaculate, it’s finito, they collapse, like death.

Refused to attend the miserable thing, as it was a joke.

That was the right thing to do.

About five times each year I’m offered one of those.

In the beginning I fell for the bullshit & turned up for three. Though the 2nd & 3rd were more so I could say “I tried your bullshit, now we do it my way”.

The wankers at the (whatever tax-hoovering entity it is that runs that lettuce-leaf justice initiative) are very skilled at pretending to be reasonable or sympathetic.
In reality they’re no different to courthouse mediators or the mediators from the fair work ombudsdonkey. Their only aim is to somehow hoodwink you into bending to a position you’d otherwise be ashamed of.

I’m rough as guts on them (that is, on the “I’m but a humble public servant doing my job & offering you a … [insert several lines of bullshit here]… so don’t take it out on me”)
They deserve it.

Don’t like me & other businesses who’re victims of crime giving you a tune-up? Then quit & go fruit picking, there’s desperate shortage there.

Mineral Resources boss Chris Ellison wants traditional owners of the site of his lithium mine to ‘prosper’

Jessica PageThe West Australian
Fri, 18 November 2022 6:21PM
Comments

Billionaire Chris Ellison has told traditional owners on the site of his lucrative lithium mine he wants to ensure they “prosper” as a people.

Mr Ellison, who took his board to the Wodgina operation, 120km south of Port Hedland, on Friday, also had the privilege to meet Stephen Stewart — who at 104 is believed to be the oldest living Aboriginal person.

Mr Stewart, a proud Kariyarra man, remembers the traumas that parts of Australia want to forget. Recalling the time he jumped on board a mail truck, with the promise it would take him to his first day at school, but instead he was taken to a lockup, bound for the chain gangs at Rottnest Island.

Mr Stewart claims to be 104 years of age. That would make him born in 1918. Rottnest Island closed, as a prison, in 1904.

G20 Pushes Vaccine Passports For All Future International Travel
FRIDAY, NOV 18, 2022 – 09:45 PM
The G20 has issued a formal decree promoting vaccine passports as preparation for any future pandemic response in its final communique. Indonesian Health Minister Budi Gunadi Sadikin, speaking on the matter on behalf of the G20 host country, had earlier in the summit called for a “digital health certificate” using WHO standards.

Sadikin advocated for that he dubbed a “digital health certificate” which shows whether a person has been “vaccinated or tested properly” so that only then “you can move around”

In the Middle Ages, the aristocracy often found allies among the Catholic clergy, who were willing to back the great landowners’ laws and swords with doctrines and rationales. There is a twenty-first-­century clerisy, though it is rarely religious and operates in a secular consumer society. Its members aren’t priests. They are journalists, entertainers, credentialed professionals, and teachers.
