Probably unwise to challenge the commenter who submitted: “died suddenly nonsense”
as some people don’t like to be contradicted.
However, it isn’t “nonsense” to those wondering why their relations/friends continue to suffer after a vaccine, let alone perish.

No-one needs a reason to watch Channel 10, but here’s a reason not to:
A top boss at Channel 10 has told senior staff that the network will not be celebrating Australia Day and suggested that employees come to work instead of taking the day off.
The station’s chief content officer, Beverley McGarvey, pointedly refused to refer to January 26 as Australia Day in an email sent to top editorial and programming staff last week.
Ms McGarvey, who is the executive vice president of Paramount Australia and New Zealand, told staff it was ‘not a day of celebration’, and encouraged staff to work instead of taking the day off.

thaaats what Im talking ’bout
followed closely by a trophy wife tax
It is being investigated. Pubmed, the most accessed biomedical database, has 24,165 results for the string “excess mortality covid”. That is just the published research, there are undoubtedly many studies underway but not published, let alone studies not indexed by pubmed. Campbell and his fellow conspiracy theorists should spend 10 seconds checking their assumptions. A classic case of not believing the first thing that enters our thinking. The bigger problem is they are looking in the wrong place. There is a much more serious issue here that is more likely to cast light on the excess deaths issue than believing that nonsense.

Australia’s mega-rich in the firing line as politicians propose a new ‘trophy home’ tax to get money out of anyone in a $10million-plus home
followed closely by a trophy wife tax
So we can safely say that at this stage, no ALP or Greens pollies own homes valued over $10 mill. I bet they have a few investment properties where the cumulative values falls just under that figure though.
Based on their proclivity for changing partners, there won’t be a trophy wife tax either.
How much do the left hate Jeremy Clarkson??
Enough to be cheerleaders for Meghan Markle.
https://www.theguardian.com/media/2022/dec/18/jeremy-clarkson-condemned-meghan-column-the-sun
In an article for the paper published on Friday, Clarkson wrote that he loathed Meghan “on a cellular level”. He said he was “dreaming of the day when she is made to parade naked through the streets of every town in Britain while the crowds chant, ‘Shame!’ and throw lumps of excrement at her”.
He added: “Everyone who’s my age thinks the same way.”
The comments have drawn widespread condemnation. The comedian* John Bishop tweeted that the remarks were a “blatant appeal to incite humiliation and violence on a woman”.
…
The presenter** Carol Vorderman tweeted: “NO, Jeremy Clarkson. Not on any level, in any circumstance, is it OK to write this stuff about any woman and absolutely NO to ‘everyone who’s my age thinks the same’.”
…
The author*** Philip Pullman wrote: “That Jeremy Clarkson can write things like that, and publish them unashamed, tells us all we need to know about the way Rupert Murdoch has poisoned and rotted our public life.”
…
Clarkson’s daughter**** Emily, who hosts the Should I Delete That? podcast, was praised by many on social media for an Instagram post that said: “I want to make it very clear that I stand against everything my dad said about Meghan Markle and I remain standing in support of those who are targeted with online hatred.”
…
The comedian***** Dom Joly said he was “literally gobsmacked” at Clarkson’s “utterly vile and disgusting comments”. He added: “What is it about these type of men that triggers them so?”
…
His fellow comic****** Jason Manford tweeted a photo of an excerpt from the article with the caption: “If you can defend Clarkson in this, then please don’t reply to me, just unfollow and block and move on. We are never going to agree.”
….
Meanwhile, the British social activist******* and chief executive of the Five Foundation, Nimco Ali, wrote: “A young Black woman opens up about her struggle with suicidal thoughts as a result of the abuse she got from the media, and this is how some men in the media react. This is absolutely horrific.”
…
The Radio DJ and TV host******** Edith Bowman wrote on Twitter: “How is someone able to print such abusive comments in an actual newspaper?”

WE all know in our heart of hearts that Harold Markle is a slightly dim but fun-loving chin who flew Apache helicopter gunships in Afghanistan and cavorted around Las Vegas hotel rooms with naked hookers.
But then along came Meghan, who obviously used some vivid bedroom promises to turn him into a warrior of woke.
nd now it seems that she has her arm so far up his bottom, she can use her fingers to alter his facial expressions.
I actually feel rather sorry for him because today he’s just a glove puppet with no more control over what he says or does than Basil Brush.
Meghan, though, is a different story. I hate her.
Not like I hate Nicola Sturgeon or Rose West. I hate her on a cellular level.
At night, I’m unable to sleep as I lie there, grinding my teeth and dreaming of the day when she is made to parade naked through the streets of every town in Britain while the crowds chant, “Shame!” and throw lumps of excrement at her.
Everyone who’s my age thinks the same way.

We don’t need to, there is this thing called excess deaths which shows, wait for it, unexpected deaths. When is the government going to investigate rather than launch countless squirrels? why are they not interested? what are they hiding?
When mRNA were first trialled on animals, there was the small problem of the animals dying. I can’t find anything that explains how they surmounted the problem, did they actually?
Anyone who trusts government is a fool.
Enough. That’s quite enough from these reworkers of our history and traditions.
Ferry races on the harbour, fly pasts of our navy fighter jets and helicopters, replays of the landings of Captain Phillip, a day of bbq’s around the harbour and in countless suburban backyards.

He forgot to mention that penalty rates would/would not be paid. The decision to work or not might depend on that.
Wilkinson peddling Audis eh. Doesn’t Bishop do the same? What a repulsive class of person they must be targeting.
He’s right there. Not in the way he expresses it, which was silly and extreme, but in his exasperation that this media soap opera has gone on for too long and is extremely annoying to people who might see things differently given the wisdom of their years.
Oh yes, indeed, and how wonderful of you to take care to note this here on Catallaxy.
Luckily, we no longer favour an Audi (though Vicki’s hubby still does) and enjoy the Sporty Beamer now instead. Seems we got out just before the axe fell. People who buy and enjoy quality vehicles take so much notice of what some unknown idiot who spruiks them says. Nothing to do with the cars at all./sarc off, for those few here who don’t do irony of any kind.
Yes that is true. We didn’t see that from the full court press from the governments and global media though. They just repeated nonsense, even if one week to the next, both or neither could possibly be true.
Very curious. Personally I think the opportunity cost of lockdowns was never properly considered.

can’t find anything that attempts to find a cause, just endless papers of people tracking the number of excess deaths.
herd immunity with high coverage of vaccination is total bullshit.

And no, that doesn’t mean the scrollee has to ignore comments by the alleged scroller.
I’d have thought conservative journalists, even retired ones, were capable of doing a little investigation before jumping to a conclusion based on their own precious narrative.
Today a reporter for The Australian, Remy Varga, has an article that tells us Australia saved $181 billion by having jabs instead of lockdowns. I can’t access the article but I would love to critique the models that underpinned her report!
In Sydney that is going to hit an awful lot of ‘influential’ people in the Eastern suburbs and lower North Shore. The Teal voters will not be happy. lol.

We had both and that is roughly 10% of one year’s GDP!
Of all the individual deaths of people who have the slightest level of public profile anywhere in the west people have rushed to proclaim as belated vaxx deaths, without even knowing the persons vaxx status I don’t think even one has been confirmed as a vaxx injury.
And don’t tell me it’s a worldwide cover up, when the deaths of unknowns, such as the 26 year old plumber from New Zealand who died of vaccine caused myocarditis, have been confirmed and reported.
Rather odd that a Channel 10 manager should promote a viewpoint that would make the average member of the public even less inclined to view their offerings.
Or are they aiming at becoming the Green niche channel, checked out by 9% of the population?
Inheritance taxes were part of the Greens platform for several years – don’t know if they still are.
I am with Dr B on this.
Remember when Covid was new and we were being pummeled with endless stories about the carnage it wrought, and we were being sensibly sceptical about the provenance and/or probity of the claims? And what claims some of them were! Any one else recall the story of the guy who died in a hospital in QLD, only for it to turn out that he had died from injuries sustained in a motorcycle accident. Well, anyone who was dying with covid was being described as dying of covid.
And it then later turned out he tested negative for the virus.
I see the same sort of frenzied reporting of stories again now. Some will be legit – the mRNA vaccines were and are still experimental and there are valid reasons why medicines have to be rigorously tested before being cleared for use on the public at large. And there are corroborating reports of spikes in certain conditions which can lead to death. I am content that I made the right decision in refusing the mRNA vaccines, and when I felt compelled (for compassionate reasons – what Struth calls ‘sophistry’) I made sure to get the non-mRNA vaccine because I felt it was the safer option. And I never even entertained a first thought, much less a second, to the idea of ‘boosters’.
But the constant barrage of links to articles which sometimes, shall we say border on the twilight, is not helping. Quality over quantity please. I have no doubt quality is out there – without having to be so…’out there’.
This is all part of my more general attitude. It is the reason I do not bother with sites like Brietbart where the headlines are designed to fire up outrage in the reader only to find that the story is nowhere near as conclusive or as all-embracing as the headline. Sometimes people with whom I might have an ideological sympathy can nevertheless themselves by susceptible to their own rhetoric. And it would be weird if that was not sometimes the case.
I recall one story linked to here about Biden ‘ordering’ young Castro in Canada to clamp down on the truckers’ convoy. By the second paragraph it had been downgraded to ‘The request from the White House…’. As it went on it was the WH arguing that if the troubles crossed the border it would cost the US billions (these numbers don’t need to be true of course) and the WH offering to coordinate with Canada on a solution.
I have never been in the military, but doesn’t sound like an order to me. Hell, not even like an order in a restaurant because the kitchen has less freedom to say ‘no’.
I still distrust the mRNA vaccines. I still think they were pushed on people by those who paid no heed to possible side-effects – the stuff we are hearing about now. I have no doubt that the big pharma companies exploited the coof and the political class that is supposed to be the people’s advocate instead gleefully became Pharma’s bitches. Well paid, but there really is no way to do what they did and still claim any moral standing.
Well, that’s me.
Actually, I should perhaps re-write the first line of the above.
I was with Dr B as far as the first part goes. Before I got carried away.
I do not claim to know Dr B would go along with the rest. He may well have a different take.
They are running out of our money.

Even absurd property prices and land rates & “normal” land taxes & stamp duties cannot keep up with this out of control spending.
2.2 mn AUD now for a 4 bed, 3 car home in Kaleen, ACT (a reasonable, but humble ‘burb near Bruce Stadium and Uni of Canberra).
That is simply unsustainable.
Even at an 8% interest rate, the weekly repayments on that loan, with a 20% deposit would be 3,228.56 weekly. For 30 years.
At a current market rate, say of 5.65% with a 10% deposit, it would be 2857.32 weekly.
If we hit 10% mortgage rates with a 10% deposit, the weekly repayment will be 4,343.98 weekly.
There are so many jobs on the ACT judiciary and SES band with the Commonwealth. Everyone else is a GP, specialist or a successful barrister?
At the 17% high water mark, it would be 7,057.09 per week.
If you could afford to repay that after taxes, living expenses and children – you would simply buy elsewhere.
What a crazy market.
Does COVID-19 vaccination cause excess deaths?
looking at table 1, the CDC numbers make no sense what so ever, apparently 7d post vax, ppl are dying at 1/10 to 1/20 the background 7d rate. wow. this is an all cause life saving technology.
how are CDC fiddling the numbers?

I had an Alfa years ago when I first met Hairy. I was compensating myself for my recent marriage failure. It was a pile of shit, just like my marriage. It got stuck in third gear on the central coast and Hairy impressively drove it back for me without changing gear. I fell in love then, I think. I sold it and put in a new kitchen in my little Lilyfield cottage.
Much later I replaced it with car I liked a lot, a little Holden Astra in British Racing Green.
Best little car out at the time, in the late-nineties, when I packaged it with my salary. I had previously packaged a Commodore but the kids pressed me to get the Astra so they could learn to drive on it.
It goes beyond the vaccine or testing for me now.
It’s the cultural/attitude shift being promoted.
That being that we should treat every single person as though they are carrying a deadly disease until they prove otherwise…
This is yet another step toward the ‘guilty until proven guilty’ system of law.
We are being encouraged to treat each other with suspicion and fear, this only benefits a totalitarian government.
And me, the first battle is confirmation bias.
ACT for example claims a 97% vaccination rate, if there are excess deaths after 2021 then it is logical to presume that COVID vaccination or an unintended consequence of lockdown (or both and other hitherto unknown pre-existing conditions) has killed these people, particularly if they died well before their life expectancy. Furthermore we don’t know their private medical information, but coercing people into medical treatment without regard to that or their consent is wrong (and stupid) too.
If (it is “merely” that) the suicide rate has gone up, well, we said lockdowns were wrong and would likely have costs exceeding the benefits.
A mentor of mine had a Vectra of the same, they were bloody good cars. I wish I bought it off her.

Also proclaims itself as the gayest place in Oz, according to the ABC. Thanks Buddha we’re over the border!
it’s a fact, all western countries have the same model of oversight, funded by big pharma.
apparently if they reluctantly admit one death or a few, apparently that proves that the cover up doesn’t exist.
one simple fact, why is the government not in the slightest bit interested in excess deaths? you would think they would be rushing to investigate. but no, not only are they not investigating they are pretending there is nothing to see. that is the give away.
David Beckham claims the Qatar World Cup “has the power to be a force for good” after defending his $272 million deal to be the face of the finals.
The ex-England captain broke his silence in response to being called out by comedian Joe Lycett.
Lycett protested against Beckham’s $27.2 million-a-year agreement to be an ambassador for the emirate.
He went viral for his money-shredding stunt last month after he issued an ultimatum to Beckham for the Qatar deal, where homosexuality is illegal.
If Beckham did not pull out of the deal, Lycett said he would shred £10,000 ($18,187).
It was later revealed that Lycett had in fact donated it to an LGBTQ+ charity.
Despicable behaviour.
So it seems the ultimate pretty boy has been getting a lot of money to keep quiet on Qatar’s human rights record. Stunning and brave.
I wonder if Becks wore a 600k euro rainbow Rolex?
One might conjecture that any vaccine related increase in ACT mortality would manifest when people were being vaccinated in large numbers, ie in 2021

Sounds like a grift
Rewiring Australia plan to electrify households, cars moves a step closer
The electrifying agenda has been criticised as being a subsidy for the rich due its high upfront costs.
But maybe the biggest win of all would be the Australian government using something like a loan guarantee to help every Australian household afford to buy these things that are expensive upfront but cheap to run on renewable electricity.”
Crunching the numbers
The average cost of converting a home and cars to run on solar-generated electicity is about $100,000.
“You will be saving $3,000 to $4,000 a year, maybe up to $5,000 a year in your total costs of energy,” Dr Griffith said.
“So over the lifetime of those vehicles, over the lifetime of those appliances that household will actually save money.
“And it’s inflation proof because you are putting it on finance, so you are going to have fixed costs of energy for 20 years going forward.
“As opposed to the variable fossil fuel prices which is causing the current inflation challenge and will continue to do so with even a higher volatility into the future.”
Rather odd that a Channel 10 manager should promote a viewpoint that would make the average member of the public even less inclined to view their offerings.
Imagine the untapped market 10 could tap if it broke with the Left’s monopoly control of all other mainstream media outlets.
I can’t imagine CBS would ask a humungous sum for the basketcase network.

Senior Liberal Dan Tehan demands party implement recommendations from damning internal review immediately as he argues it ‘can change’ for next election (Sky News, 19 Dec)
No mention of stupid net zero in the story, nor their abandoning the base.
Bye Libs, you are a zombie party.
I don’t think John Campbell is committed to an hypothesis, he just wants an honest investigation, as do I. And the large number you asserted were ongoing were, as zipster pointed out, not doing this at all.
I have seen calls in the UK parliament for such an investigation, but have not heard of any government response. The belief that the increase in mortality is not connected with vaccines is as irrational as the conviction that it is.
The reluctance of government in the UK to respond may be explained by the colossal guilt it would imply for the mandators if it should turn out that vaccines are in part responsible for excess mortality; one does not have to be unduly cynical to suspect that an objective investigation might be feared by government in case it produced a damning result.
Love my sport Mother Lode lol.
My parents pushed me into any sport going, along with my brother. Gave us structure and discipline but also the friendships gained through sport will last me my lifetime.
And one might be very wrong. e.g. let’s say it contains a slow working toxin, that takes 10 years to kill you.
For every complex problem, there is a solution that is simple, obvious and
wrong.
h/t somebody
one simple fact, why is the government not in the slightest bit interested in excess deaths? you would think they would be rushing to investigate. but no, not only are they not investigating they are pretending there is nothing to see. that is the give away.
This is palpably true. But the silence is also perpetrated by the media. On the other hand, if you search the medical journals there are actually research papers on known adverse reactions.
I have an unusual number of friends you currently have significant joint pain. OK – they are in an older age group. But their medical practitioners seem unable to pinpoint the problem and these are occurring in joints that were previously unaffected. All have had MRIs but no read advice from the medicos. I also noted that a medico on Jo Nova’s blog is seeing a big increase in patients with these sorts of problems & he speculated that they may be related to the vaccines.
As a result, I googled “synovitis mRNA vaccines” – & lo and behold quite a number of articles in medical journals on the relationship. Mind you, there are also articles on the connection between Covid infection and joint problems. I suspect the culprit is the spike protein which is common to both original infection and the vaccines.
One only has to look at the ivermectin debacle to see the sordid influence of big pharma. Ivermectin was shown to be effective early on and the governments squashed it universally. on what basis? on the basis of an FTX funded trial. the same FTX that “donated” $40m to the demonrats and is the largest ponzi scheme in history.
Big pharma came out with its own version of ivermectin, paxlovid. Both are CL3 protease inhibitors. That is, it prevents the furin site cleavage from working that allows the virus to enter cells. Sell entry blocked by both ivermectin and paxlovid. The furin site is an insert to the ccp virus and is patented by moderna. No other coronavirii have this insert. odd.
The key difference we need to focus on is that paxlovid can be sold at AUD1000 a 5 day course whereas ivermectin is $20 and can’t be patented.
Pfizer has raked in $20b of profits from paxlovid to date.
Ivermectin was banned here on the basis that it would cause a shortage and ppl with scabies in the outback might miss out. Are you fucking kidding me!?!?!?!?
If you can’t see that this is global in your face corruption, then you are a mindless sheep.
The biggest difficulty would be dealing with the staff. Remember when Gina was going to buy into Fairfax? The cost in payouts for cutting out the lefty infections would be stupendous. And even they must realise they can’t all migrate to the ABC (which is where lefty ‘talent’ goes to die).
Oh, man.
Preach it.
I honestly don’t understand the antipathy to Campbell. As Dr BG has already noted, he was a huge booster of COVID vaxes, relies almost entirely on published work, and is certainly deferential to the scientific mainstream, but he’s not beholden to it. If you can be all that and still regarded a ‘conspiracy theorist’ this can only help the prevailing narrative.
Reading about Carnarvon above and watching an extended report on the Alice last night has made me think we’re seeing northern Australia turning into a no go zone. It’s an insurrection, though that gives it a false dignity. It’s more of an evil, self destructive tantrum.
An aboriginal woman working with young people in Alice Springs said that they were all suicidal. They had no hope for a future. Sounds right but her response doesn’t help: blame whitey.
Spend 35 bill. Great result.
Matt Kean is effectively the Premier and Dom a figurehead. Been that way for a while IMO. However Kean is much more visible recently, more so than Dom.
I’ll go out on a limb but if the Libs pull a rabbit out of the hat and win, Kean will challenge within the year.

We’re now not ever likely to see an end to the lawlessness that plagues many northern towns and cities, where “indigenous violence” is a key feature.
Main reason being the police and legal system are just a rotating door, and there is no deterrent at all to being lawless. In fact, there’s a reward system in gaining approval from a peer group.
it now costs more to charge an EV in Norway than to fill up a normal car. let that sink in.
Nil chance of that.
I’m fairly sure the base detests Kean and Photios. NSW has exhausting ballots so the disillusioned righties will vote for PHON or SFF or someone then won’t give preferences. Now I suspect that AEC lefties would not be averse to surreptitiously adding a number or two to exhausting ballots, but that will be towards the ALP not the Libs.
Add that the teal types dislike Perrottet and the lockdowns and vax mandates pissed off anyone who was ground under the heel of the medical jackboot and the election won’t even be close.

The age-standardised mortality rate for Australia decreased between 2012 (554 per 100,000 people) and 2021 (507 per 100,000 people), ACT Health stated. The ACT’s age-standardised mortality rate has decreased over time; it fell from 479 per 100,000 in 2020 to 464 per 100,000 people in 2021. Rates for 2022 are not yet available.
One might conjecture that any vaccine related increase in ACT mortality would manifest when people were being vaccinated in large numbers, ie in 2021
at the Canberra Weekly
I would rather look at non Guv’ment figures/analysis and here is some puzzling stuff from American Life Insurance Companies. Since this has been reported, there has been a lot more puzzling stuff being ‘discovered’. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Mysterious excess deaths in 18 to 64 year olds –
https://joannenova.com.au/2022/07/mysterious-excess-deaths-in-18-64-year-olds-life-insurance-companies-paying-out-a-lot-more-in-2021/
The belief that the Pfizer and Moderna jabs have occasional adverse effects is reasonably well established and hardly surprising. The belief that these jabs have occasionally caused death is reasonably well supported. As is the belief that there is generally an abnormally high level of excess mortality since the jabs were started.
The hypothesis that these jabs are responsible for much of the excess mortality is a bit of a stretch atm, but it is not lunatic. I want to know if it is a credible explanation. And I have seen very little hard evidence either way, and no evidence that governments anywhere are much concerned. And they should be. My cynical explanation of why they aren’t pursuing the matter, if true, makes things worse. It says that the governments think they might have been killing ppl and don’t want us to find out the truth in case they have.
Im at the stage where Im fairly dismissive of any ‘suddenly dies” stories. Mistrust and verify.
But Im completely dismissive of anything reported by the media/phara/Government. Just assume they are lying all the time.
No “trusted source on the internet” disregarded bodily autonomy – the absolute core value of medicine – in order to make me comply with a government dictate.

Rather odd that a Channel 10 manager should promote a viewpoint that would make the average member of the public even less inclined to view their offerings.
Or are they aiming at becoming the Green niche channel, checked out by 9% of the population?
Too late, Their ABC has the green niche covered.
The magistrates, yes…but the police?

What’s his game here?
That’s not unreasonable but you are begging the question with regards to my conjecture.
1. Are there excess deaths?
2. What is the cause?
3. It could be opportunity costs of lockdowns.
4. SADS didn’t exist before mass COVID vaccination. At least it never made headlines.
Don’t need an invitation but thanks anyway. There should be more of this.
Cards will be accepted at the Cottesloe Boatshed.
These ‘vaccines’ did kill people, that was recognised in the vaccine death rate (many vaccines do have these, but they are rare as rare). The issues now are was the death rate higher in the immediate post-vaxx period, and even more significantly, is there any ongoing death rate that is due to these jabs? The first issue may be resolved to some extent by further analysis of available statistics which contain good health data along with this search for a coterminous effect; the second issue is ongoing and unlikely to ever be completely resolved as so many intervening health factors are involved over an ever extending time scale.

If Beckham did not pull out of the deal, Lycett said he would shred £10,000 ($18,187).
It was later revealed that Lycett had in fact donated it to an LGBTQ+ charity.
Much the same thing, but shredding it might possibly have been less harmful.
Given that the preponderance of excess deaths is in the older age groups, I’m leaning towards the impact of lockdowns on those with diabetes & heart disease, cancers not detected early enough for effective treatment and residents in nursing homes going without adequate nutrition and social interaction. A couple of gerontologists have been game enough to point to the latter on th ebasis of their clinical experience over the last two years (interviewed on the ABC even).
Do you need a lay down after you’ve filled one out? 😛
Dr B – The big problem is that data collection is now so corrupt that you almost always have to believe the side the government is repressing.
I don’t believe the data that governments have been recording because there’s been a vast number of reports of pressure on medical people NOT to record vax injury, and the medical fraternity has been terrified out of its collective wits. We’ve all seen stories of GPs and specialists who have been persecuted for dissent. Which implies the dissenting view is the true one.
Same of course in the climate arena – just ask Peter Ridd. (It’s still amazingly cool here at the Cafe: no global warming is in evidence today, at least.)

One only has to look at the ivermectin debacle to see the sordid influence of big pharma. Ivermectin was shown to be effective early on and the governments squashed it universally. on what basis? on the basis of an FTX funded trial. the same FTX that “donated” $40m to the demonrats and is the largest ponzi scheme in history.

Be an interesting Parliament of liquorice allsorts then Bruce.
Main reason being the police and legal system are just a rotating door, and there is no deterrent at all to being lawless. In fact, there’s a reward system in gaining approval from a peer group.
This. A notorious soft touch magistrate suffered from aboriginal crime last year but reportedly has not affected her soft touch. Authorities have been more heavy handed with vigilantism so it is very much underground now. Dunno about the solution now, apart from a period of heavy handed sentencing instead of housing at Townsville slamming them up at Etna Creek or Lotus Glen well away from their clans. That would mean taking on the bench though which would take spine, something certainly absent in the LNP.
Have you seen the length of them? A stiff drink is certainly in order for the walk home.
Sudden Arythmic Death Syndrome has always existed, circa 4000 adult deaths yearly in the US. Many different types of arythmia.
Also, when an adult dies suddenly there can be many causes, not just cardiac issues, though obviously with death the heart stops beating.
Underlying cancers causing clots, for instance, and many other ‘hidden’ conditions that manifest in death. It is not any sort of clear cut field for analysis. In my view, Covid and/or the Covid vaxxes may be precipitating variables – in some cases, given some conditions, and given that all other factors are equal across a study population (which of course they mostly are not).

Not right, they did chuck money in, but it wasnt until after that study was already published.
I was in Carnarvon about six weeks ago. Besides feeling weird at being the only whitefella in Woolies, I found it, generally, okay.
The only two odd things were (some) kids walking the streets and riding motorbikes on a school day and I did not spot an indigenous fella over my three days there. They could be fifo but dunno… was odd.
I think there is no doubt that if any government tried to introduce a vaxx today with the track record of the Covid vaxxes (all of them) that such a vaxx wouldn’t pass the first stage of testing. The withdrawal of the Swine Flu vaxx tells that story. It was the ’emergency’ conditions that allowed this international Covid Vaxx jab fest to proceed as it did.

Looks like a clown. And those hairy legs – made me laugh out loud.
(More broadly, that person is a picture of everything that is wrong with the West.)
A father, son and grandson go out to the country club for their weekly round of golf. Just as they reach the first tee, a beautiful young blonde woman carrying her bag of clubs approaches them. She explains that the member who brought her to the club for a round of golf had an emergency which called him away and asks the trio whether she can join them.
Naturally, the guys all agree. Smiling, the blonde thanks them and says “Look, fellows, I work in a topless bar as a dancer, so nothing shocks me anymore. If any of you wants to smoke cigars, have a beer, bet, swear or tell off-colour stories or do anything that you normally do when playing a round together, go ahead. But I enjoy playing golf, consider myself pretty good at it, so don’t try to coach me on how to play my shots”.
With that the guys agree to relax and invite her to drive first. All eyes are fastened on her shapely behind as she bends to place her ball on the tee. She then takes her driver and hits the ball 270 yards down the middle, right in front of the green.
The father’s mouth is agape. “That was beautiful” he said. The blonde puts her driver away and says “I really didn’t get into it and I should have faded it a little”.
After the three guys hit their drives and their second shots (she was closest to the pin) the blonde takes out a nine iron and lofts the ball within five feet of the hole. The son says “Damn, lady, you played that perfectly”. The blonde frowns and says “It was a little weak. I’ve left a tricky little putt”.
After the son buries a long putt for a par, dad two putts for a bogey and granddad overruns the green with his pitching wedge, chips back and putts for a double bogey, the blonde taps in the five-footer for a birdie.
The guys all congratulate her on her fine game. She puts her putter back in the bag and says “Thanks, but I really haven’t played much lately, and I’m a little rusty. Maybe I’ll really get into this next drive”.
Having the honours, she drives first on the second hole and knocks the hell out of the ball, and it lands nearly 300 yards away smack in the middle of the fairway. And for the rest of the round she continues to amaze the guys, quietly and methodically shooting for par or less on every hole.
When they get to the 18th green, the blonde is three under par, but has a very nasty 12-foot putt on an undulating green for a par. She turns to the three guys and “I really want to thank you all for not acting like a bunch of chauvinists and telling me what club to use or how to play a shot, but I need this putt for a 69 and I’d really like to break 70 on this course. If any one of you can tell me how to make par on this hole, I’ll take him back to my apartment, pour some 25-year old Royal Salute Scotch in him, fix him dinner and then show him a good time the rest of the night”.
The yuppie son jumps at the thought. He strolls across the green, carefully eyes the line of the putt and finally says “Honey, aim about 6 inches to the right of the hole and hit it firm. It will get over that little hump and break right into the cup”.
The father kneels down and sights the putt using his putter as a plumb. “Don’t listen to the kid, darlin’. You want to hit it softly 10 inches to the right and run it left down that little hogback, so it falls into the cup”.
The old grey haired grandfather walks over to the blonde’s ball on the green, picks it up and hands it to her. “That’s a gimme, sweetheart. Your car or mine?”

Needless to say, trouble seemed to follow them wherever they went, which might explain why they moved so often.

Cause Unknown: The Epidemic of Sudden
Deaths
STORY AT-A-GLANCE
In his new book, “Cause Unknown: The Epidemic of Sudden Deaths in 2021 and
2022,” former BlackRock fund manager Edward Dowd details data showing the
COVID shots are a crime against humanity
– Insurance industry research in 2016 concluded that group life policyholders die at
one-third the rate of the general U.S. population, so they’re the healthiest among
us. Group life policyholders are those employed with Fortune 500 companies,
who tend to be younger and well-educated
– In 2020, the general U.S. population had higher excess mortality than group life
holders, but in 2021, that flipped. Ages 25 through 64 of the group life
policyholders suddenly experienced 40% excess mortality, compared to 32% in
the general population. In short, a far healthier subset of the population suddenly
died at a higher rate than the general population
– American disability statistics are equally revealing. In the five years before COVID,
the monthly disability rate was between 29 million and 30 million. After the
COVID jabs, the disability trend changed dramatically. As of September 2022,
there were 33.2 million disabled Americans — an extra 3.2 million to 4.2 million
— a three standard deviation rate of change since May 2021
– Since May 2021, the overall U.S. population has experienced an 11% increase in
disabilities, while the employed — which is about 98 million out of a total
population of about 320 million — experienced 26% increased rate of disability.
So, something was introduced into the workforce that caused working age people
to die
A Red Pill for Christmas
A great feature of “Cause Unknown: The Epidemic of Sudden Deaths in 2021 and
2022” is that it’s not going to overwhelm you with complex statistical analysis. It’s a
simple read with lots of pictures and graphs. It also includes QR codes to references
so you can rapidly confirm them.
“Everything I sourced,” Dowd says. “It’s a powerful book. It’s a book that I hope
changes the marginal mind … I think it makes a great Christmas gift for the
family member who doesn’t see the reality we see and, again, it’s coming from
a Wall Street guy, laid out as an investment thesis. You can disagree, but all the
stuff that I put in the book is sourced and the data is the data …
What we don’t do in the book is we don’t get into the who and why. We don’t
want to assault someone’s worldview, but the data’s so compelling, we do say
at the end of the book … ‘There’s a cover-up going on and malfeasance.’
Jessica Rose, Ph.D., said in an interview with me, and I put her quote in the
book, ‘Some things are worse than death.’ The most acute adverse reaction is
death. But there are other ones that can make your life pretty miserable for a
long, long time, and also make other people’s lives miserable that have to take
care of you.
When you think about labor statistics, if there’s someone in the house that’s
disabled severely, the person who’s not disabled loses work hours and work
weeks taking care of that person, taking them to hospital visits, what have you.
Also, think about the hospital infrastructure that’s going to be overwhelmed,
especially with the health care workers who were mandated to take all these
jabs. We’re going to have a health care crisis, whether you know it or not.
It’s coming, and you’re not going to have access to health care … That’s why I
think people need to look at holistic health themselves and get as healthy as
possible right now … Do what you can outside the medical system because soon
it’s not going to be there for you.”
The other key is the current wife of Nathaniel. She presumably has a much clearer insight into the brothers and ex-wife, from a possibly more sane and objective position.

Test
A Scottish couple took in an 18-year-old girl as a lodger. She asked if she could have a bath, but the woman of the house told her they didn’t have a bath, although if she wanted to, she could use a tin bath in front of the fire.
“Monday’s the best night, when my husband goes out to darts” she said. The girl agreed then to have a bath the following Monday.
After her husband had gone to the pub for his darts match, the woman filled the bath and watched the girl get undressed. She was surprised to see that the lass didn’t have any pubic hair.
She mentioned this to her husband when he came home.
He didn’t believe her, so she said “Next Monday, when you go to darts, leave a little early and wait in the back garden. I’ll leave a gap in the curtains so you can see for yourself.
“So the following Monday, while the girl again got undressed, the wife asked “Do you shave?” “No” replied the girl. “I’ve just never grown any hair down there. Do you have hair?” “Oh, yes” said the woman, and she pulled up her nightdress and showed the girl that she was most generously endowed in the hair department.
The girl finished her bath and went to bed.
Later that night, when the husband came in, the wife asked him “Well, did you see?” “Yes” he said “but why the hell did you have to show her yours”. “Why are you worried about that?” she said. “You’ve seen it often enough”. “I know” he said “but the darts team hadn’t!”

Trump channeling is inner Yoel Roth
But the main attraction, obviously, was Trump.
He received a standing ovation after delivering an enthusiastic affirmation of gay rights not often heard in the GOP.
“We are fighting for the gay community, and we are fighting and fighting hard,” the former president and 2024 candidate said. “With the help of many of the people here tonight in recent years, our movement has taken incredible strides, the strides you’ve made here is incredible.”
Charles Moran, president of the Log Cabin Republicans, challenged other 2024 hopefuls to also say they are willing to fight for gay rights.
“I just heard a Republican candidate for president stand up and say he is willing to fight and I challenge every other Republican to make the same pledge Donald Trump made tonight,” Moran said.
“I’m going to hold all candidates to that same standard,” he added in a later interview. “We’re really at a place now where we’re going to have an open election and there are going to be other Republicans running, and we have a responsibility to look at the entire Republican field.”
Moran and his group worked behind the scenes to build support for the Respect for Marriage Act and brought at least four GOP members of Congress on board. He noted that House Republican Majority Whip-elect Tom Emmer is an ally of the group and wants to proactively engage on legislation.
A primary legislative goal for Log Cabin Republicans is the “Restore Honor to Servicemembers Act,” which would provide an opportunity for those dishonorably discharged under “Don’t ask, don’t tell” to have their discharge status changed.

“And it’s inflation proof because you are putting it on finance, so you are going to have fixed costs of energy for 20 years going forward. “
Oh, right – the “fixed” cost of electricity, which is projected to increase, what was it, 50% or so next year? After the previous 50% increase. And the one before that. Because of renewables – because the marginal cost without the “carbon credits” and renewables “stealing” supply is still the same as it was 10 years ago.
Or does he mean a fixed cost of zero, because you wont have electricity?
And you are financing it at a time when interest rates are rising.

Saw an interesting example of the leaf blower and LGA mindset today. I go through a park that was massively overplanted with London Plane trees about 20 years ago. It was handed over the a certain LGA once all the blocks were sold who actually do a pretty good job of maintaining it (albeit with residents paying a surcharge on their rates for the privilege). Today the path was 3 inches deep in leaves dropped with the heat, not even the main deciduous drop. These were dutifully blown to the side – till this afternoon’s sea breeze.

Melbourne councils are chopping down trees and removing vegetation from footpaths
Countershot
https://www.melbourne.vic.gov.au/about-melbourne/sustainability/Pages/cooling-our-city.aspx
Urban areas are usually warmer than their rural surroundings, creating what is known as the ‘urban heat island effect’. As cities continue to grow, vegetation is lost and surfaces are paved or covered with buildings, which absorb and radiate heat.
As part of our commitment to the Paris Climate agreement, to limit global temperature rise to under 2°C by 2050, we are working towards cooling our city. One way we are doing this is through greening projects, such as tree planting. Our goal is to plant 3000 trees in Melbourne every year to increase the resilience of the urban forest and to cool our city by 4°C.
Trees and vegetation can cool our cities by providing shade, reflecting sunlight and by releasing moisture into the air through their leaves in a process called transpiration. We want to see more greening in Melbourne in order to grow our urban forest.

The demise of the used postie bike is something to be lamented. My old man had one on the farm for poking around till he sold the place. Still managed to come off it a few times.
What, he was delivering post to the cattle?
As an ex-postie mate said about the bikes – All tourque and no action.
Votes against Elon now 56.3%.
I hope he’s got a plan. Maybe he’ll replace himself with Trump.
Pretty much pin the throttle and sit back for the ride. Could get a bit sketchy on gravel and sand.
Cronkite
He can’t run it as he’s busy with too much stuff going on. With the right settings it could mostly be run on autopilot. I’d be happy to run it for free. He needs to add streaming allowing for something resembling Apple TV + . Done properly, he could turn it into a terra cap. I’d love to get my hands on it fire more of those arseholes. I’d run it for free with a balloon payout at the end of three years.

I’d run a daily meeting of all the heads and demand at least 20 well known leftwingers who we’d have to ban each day. I’d be gunning for the Kenyan and his husband.
the reality is 180degrees different. the vaxed are a major breeding ground for variants, due to not preventing infection and not preventing transmission.
The streets are about the last place you can grow any sort of decent tree, much improved with underground power removing the need for the ridiculous pruning you used to see. Luckily some LGAs are starting to use some decent eucalypts.
They’re doing a splendid job. Their assignment is to make sure Network 10 loses money for its US owners by committing the commercial suicide of targeting millenials as its audience*.
Making sure almost no-one watches it (like the ABC) is part of their assignment.
Welcome to the upside-down world of tax-loss accounting.
*Millenials don’t buy (or watch) anything unless it’s free. Targeting millenials is suicide for a TV network. That’s why Australia’s only profitable TV networks, 7 and 9, target the lucrative 25-54 age group, who actually buy the stuff their advertisers advertise, unlike stingy milennials.
I’d ban this lying rancid turd in a heartbeat.
I have a feeling he’s done 90% of what he needs to, and wants to get back into space fun.
1/ Boot out the useless lefties and do-nothings
2/ get the focus on delivery of service and innovation
3/ uncover malfeasance by the USA alphabet agencies.
He can guide the rest from the board with an appropriately chosen executive.
Presuming the figures are accurate, I’d suspect Musk has a cunning plan, that being “forced” to step into the shadows, thus getting out of the limelight and promote a front man. All the crap with doxxing his family could be behind this move.
If I ran twatter I’d have one compulsory nude day a week.
I thought the eye of Sauron looked familiar.
Cats during the Trump era: actually Trump is playing eleven-dimensional chess, it may look like he’s a stumbling dumbarse who got lucky but really he is a mastermind

Just males, right? You’re “dis-interested” in female bodies.
