Woke Disney debut debacle.
Disney shares drop 15.24% after the opening of ‘Dial of Destiny’, their new, cringeworthy woke desecration of the Indiana Jones series.
The box office numbers for the opening week/weekend are horrific and while the left desperately try to make excuses for it, the shareholders are bailing out.
It didn’t even come close to performing as well as its predecessor ‘Kingdom of the Crystal Skull‘… and Crystal Skull sucked balls.

I posted this last night, as the old thread was dying. I’m going to post it again because I really believe that the Farage bank banning confirms what I’ve long been saying, here and elsewhere, about the silence and moral cowardice of the mainstream right over the last half a decade when the likes of Katie, Tommy and others have endured bannings, silencing, being deplatformed and non-personned. Their silence empowered and emboldened the left. I don’t relish saying “I told you so” but you don’t have to like or approve of Katie, Tommy and others to argue that they should never ever have endured the social and economic opprobrium they have, and that perhaps, if more mainstream figures on the right, such as Nigel Farage, had come out earlier to denounce the bannings and the silencing, then Farage himself would not now be in a position where he is being banned from UK banks.
“Katie Hopkins: All the noise around Farage; Fox, GB News…..let me share what really matters.”
For the last seven years, various people deemed unsavoury and far-right by progressives and others have been publicly smeared as vile Nazis, routinely ridiculed, kicked of Facebook, Twitter and almost all other social media platforms, denounced, howled down, sacked from jobs, denied employment opportunities, dobbed into police, been knocked on the door by police, doxed, physically attacked, and have been the subject of a whole host of other punitive actions by activists and the progressive political and media class. I could go on, you get the drift. Here are some of their names, Milo, Gavin, Avi, Laura, Tommy, Carl, Katie, Lauren, Stefan, and there are many other names, less famous, who’ve also suffered and had their lives ruined. Why? Because they dared to speak up and speak bluntly about subjects the left have deemed “taboo”, such as Islamic immigration, rape gangs, the gender rubbish and so on. As Katie says, she’s been non-personned in the UK (and here in Oz, who could forget, only two years ago, when she was kicked out of the country by a Coalition government). Katie Hopkins doesn’t have a bank account, and it’s the same for Tommy and others.
Mainstream figures on the right, be it in the USA, the UK and here in Oz, have almost always sat back and said nothing when the aforementioned names were being cancelled and silenced, almost no one spoke up for Tommy or Katie, and that includes the likes of Nigel Farage. I have a huge amount of respect for Nigel, he’s a superb raconteur and speaker, but here’s the truth, Farage, like others on the mainstream right, have largely remained silent when people like Katie and Tommy and Carl were being harassed, silenced and disappeared.
But the wheel always turns, because the left never stop, they’re never satisfied, and now Farage, his family and others on the mainstream right are being targeted for silencing, their bank accounts are being closed, they are being classed as non-persons.
I’m reminded of the poem by Martin Niemöller (I’ve slightly altered it)….
First they came for Katie
And I did not speak out
Then they came for Tommy
And I did not speak out
Then they came for Milo
And I did not speak out
Then they came for Gavin
And I did not speak out
Because I thought they’d never come for me
….
And then they did come for me
And then they will come for you

In this case, Phoebe Waller-Bridge has been deliberately brought in to do exactly that. Looks like she ain’t no Karen Allen-cum-Ian Fleming after all.
Amid violent riots in France, the two main police unions have declared in a written statement that France is in a civil war and warned the government that once the rule of law is restored, the police will be in the “resistance” against the government.
In a remarkable, strongly worded statement posted on social media on June 30, the Alliance Police Nationale and UNSA wrote: “Today the police are in combat because we are at war, tomorrow we will be in resistance and the government should realize that.”

Treasury Tells Banks They Must Protect Free Speech After Nigel Farage Debanked (3 Jul)
Maybe it’s a bit of self preservation since Tories can be cancelled as easily as anyone else for the same evil reasons. I hope they carry through, but the pessimist in me thinks the woke banks themselves will still try to find ways to persecute anyone unwoke. I suspect the fascist ESG ranking system has something to do with it too.
And further to our own appeasers, Milo was banned by a Coalition government, Gavin was banned by a Coalition government, Katie was kicked out by a Coalition government (I remember Barnabus the Beetroot actively joining in the choruses howling for her to be turfed), Julie Inman Grant was a Coalition appointee, and it was a Coalition government that first toyed with social media platform restrictions, so please pardon my fury if I find it a wee bit rich to now read that the Coalition is attacking the Albanese government’s proposals to “combat fake news on social media platforms” and I find even more stomach churning to read in The Australian comments by Senator James Paterson (an appeaser if ever there was one) that…
“restrictions on free speech are not the answer to the rising spread of online disinformation.”
Paterson further says, engaging in a lot of chutzpah…
“There are other more direct means of dealing with this problem without censoring Australians,” opposition spokesman on cyber security James Paterson told The Australian.”
Ah yes Senator Paterson, I remember, all too well, your eager participation in the senate censorship of Bettina Arndt, and I remember your words at the time…
“I agree with Kristina Keneally that her comments are reprehensible, that they are abhorred and they deserve to be condemned and criticised and I’m quite comfortable for politicians to do that,” Mr Paterson told Sky News.
“On the actual handing out and rescinding of Order of Australia awards, I think appropriately that shouldn’t be done by politicians, I think that should be done by the Australia Day Council,” he said.
“There are reports in the media that they are considering whether Ms Arndt has brought the awards into disrepute and I think that’s appropriate.”
You, Senator Paterson, are a f*cking hypocrite.

The video, shot at the Accor Arena where Elton John played for three nights as part of his Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour, showed Macron tapping his foot and smiling while listening to the hit song “Saturday Night’s Alright for Fighting.”
The star had also played “Burning Down the Mission,” according to the Independent, around the same time that Paris itself was burning in some quarters.’

Toulon shops were also regular victims of ‘swarming’ by said teenagers.

I still don’t know why they shot the kid. The idea he was going to run them over isn’t convincing. Police can shoot everyone who drives away now?
One bad bit of PR can set you back decades.
The fact that the riots happen at all is worse. The idea that “no go” zones are acceptable is just bizarre to me.
That’ll do wonders for the tax flow into government coffers, not to mention the political risk of having millions of idle & angry citizens milling about the streets. People who have no stake in society have nothing much left to lose.

Thanks for the tip.
The shoddy work from AEMO continues – the TCV (love child company of AEMO) released a Landholders Guide two weeks ago. It claimed that they have a right to enter farmers land under section 93 of the Essential Services Commission Act. Our group knew they had no licence from the ESC and notified the Commission who has written to the TCV requiring it to amend the document.
These clowns were actually going to misrepresent themselves to landholders in order to gain access to farms so they could conduct environmental surveys they require before a Environmental Effects Statement can be issued. They were desperate to do this to capture Spring flowering windows for species ID – next year if they miss out.
I’m ramping this up through the Victorian Farmers Federation. It’s a very serious matter to quote powers under an Act that suggest legal ramifications and coercive force. This is clearly the power industry trying to bully farmers and the government not monitoring the organisations they have empowered to do the task.

Its a veneer of woke cast across the usual “lock everything up and let it burn” greenslime.
Yet despite promises to protect areas including Mirboo North, Strathbogie Ranges, Central Highlands and East Gippsland, the Andrews government hasn’t legislated any large-scale additions to Victoria’s national parks estate. Nor has it implemented most Victorian Environmental Assessment Council (VEAC) recommendations for improved and expanded conservation areas.
Instead, the Victorian government has stewarded the worst ecosystem crisis in the state’s history. Despite its promise to end native logging next year, it continues to introduce logging into state forests scheduled for national parks protection. It subsidised a frequently unlawful pulp log industry that increased bushfire risk*, worsened species decline and cost Victorians hundreds of millions that could have funded nature reserves and associated jobs.
….
In state forests (managed by the Department of Energy, Environment and Climate Action) and national parks (managed by Parks Victoria), limited infrastructure serves a sector of largely white male bush users — 4WD enthusiasts, bikers, hunters and adventurers — over birdwatchers, community walking groups and tourists. The former are high-impact and politically organised; the latter are not. In January, an Upper Yarra management report warned that the “type of visitors attracted are not always aligned with local values considering catchment health and minimising bushfire risk”. **

https://www.canberratimes.com.au/story/8250504/voice-support-hits-perilously-low-levels-in-regions/
Support for the Indigenous Voice to Parliament is lagging at perilously low levels in regional and rural Australia, a new survey of 10,000 voters has found.
In a wake-up call for “yes” proponents and the Albanese government, only 38 per cent of people surveyed last month supported the establishment of the Voice, compared to 55 per cent who said they expected to vote “no” on referendum day.
In the regions the “no” vote grew to 57 per cent while the “yes” vote shrank to 35 per cent.
And in a telling result, a majority of respondents – at 72 per cent – feel the government has not done enough to explain the Voice to the community.
The results of the new survey are revealed today by the daily newspapers of ACM, which conducted the study over 10 days in June through the company’s research arm, Chi Squared. ACM is the publisher of this masthead.
The online questionnaire was completed by readers of the ACM network’s publications, including its 14 daily newspapers serving Canberra and key regional population centres such as Newcastle, Wollongong, Tamworth, Orange, Albury and Wagga Wagga in NSW, Ballarat, Bendigo and Warrnambool in Victoria and Launceston and Burnie in northern Tasmania.
Some of the 10,131 people who did the survey between June 16 and 26 were members of regional audience panel Crackerjack.
The “yes” campaign for the referendum is now deemed to be finally off and running, including nationwide community “Come Together for Yes” events over the past weekend. Undeterred by daunting polling to date, the “yes” campaign is unleashing heavy and sustained advertising.
But the ACM survey shows average support for the Voice sitting at 38 per cent. The “no” vote’s 55 per cent and the undecided camp at 7 per cent shows the mountain ahead for the “yes” camp to climb before the referendum due in October.
But the ACM survey shows average support for the Voice sitting at 38 per cent. The “no” vote’s 55 per cent and the undecided camp at 7 per cent shows the mountain ahead for the “yes” camp to climb before the referendum due in October.
The challenge looks even steeper in regional Australia, where more voters – at 57 per cent – said they were more likely to vote “no”. Regional areas were also less likely – at 35 per cent – to vote “yes” than those from the main metropolitan cities and Canberra.
In recent days Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has sought to address questions from regional Australians about how the Voice would work to help address entrenched Indigenous disadvantage, including an eight year life expectancy gap and incarceration rates that meant a young Indigenous male is more likely to go to jail than university.
Female respondents indicating they would vote “yes” came in at 47 per cent compared to men at 29 per cent, while 65 per cent of males surveyed said they planned to vote “no” compared to 45 per cent of females.
People aged 40 to 59 were significantly more likely to indicate that they would vote “no” – at 58 per cent, the least likely to vote “yes” – at 34 per cent – and the most undecided (8 per cent).

Maybe the YES campaign would be helped if some Aboriginal activists stopped claiming they needed a say in national defence and foreign affairs as they “affect Aborigines”.
Looks like the Dutch farmers were part of an EU wide plot to “rewild” (or dehumanize if you prefer) large chunks of EU territory.

Before heading for their summer holidays, MEPs are expected to vote on a proposed nature restoration law, committing European governments to rehabilitate and rewild swathes of territory suffering from desertification, deforestation and the draining of peatlands.
And yes, the farmers are singled out as Kulaks and wreckers barring the way towards the sunlit uplands…
Elsewhere, the rise of the Farmer-Citizen Movement in the Netherlands, which opposes attempts to reduce nitrogen emissions from intensive farming, has come to symbolise a potential rural backlash against net zero targets.

Of course, being “accredited” by the “Poynter Institute”, it is like being accredited by Brian Stelter, or by the Ponds Institute for Fair Pay and Climate Change.
My own strategy is
1) Use cash as much as possible – in my case near 100%. Cards are only used for online purchases and utility payments. This *greatly* reduces your financial footprint and allows you to keep much of your purchase history hidden. It also establishes a pattern of withdrawing significant amounts of cash from your accounts, reducing your need to ‘explain’ large cash withdrawals.
2) Use accumulated cash as per #1 above to acquire durable assets without a paper trail – eg Gold, Silver. YOu can buy up to $5k worth of these for cash at any one time, more if the dealer knows you.
3) Store your wealth in forms you control, free of govt visibility and interdictability – larger sums in 1 Oz gold coins, plus a stack of 1 Oz silver coins for daily use. These may not be readily usable now, but keep a long view on this – they certainly know the value of gold and silver in places where their currency has failed, like Zim, Venezuela etc. My recent experience in withdrawing lump sums from super (endless ‘computer says no’ roadblocks) reinforced for me the need to ensure *you* control your own wealth, not some intermediary who can block your transactions and withdrawals)
4) Learn about BTC, set up a ‘wallet’ and buy a bit – its a better form of gold in that it is not only non seizable, non printable and non censorable, it is a payment system as well. Like gold, in the west, which still has functional (albeit rapidly failing) fiat currency, its not in common use here, but it will be when we turn into Zim etc. Note too that you *Can* use it (and other cryptos) to buy stuff in Oz, OTR servos for example have a POS terminal that accepts it. Ask Dover for my email if you want me to send you a ‘beginners guide’. I have been in BTC since 2015 and it is the key to my being able to tell our wise masters to fcuk off these last 3 years.
5) Live well below your means, hide the rest in durable assets as above, take a long view on this, stop buying ephemeral shit and regard your role in life as to set up your childrens financial future and security.
6) Assume govt will try to steal everything you have, and give you nothing back in return – establish good relationships with your immediate neighbours and family – they will be your backstop when govt fails to provide. Allowing yourself to be dependent on govt is how the bastards got away with everything they did these last 3 years – few citizens were independent enough to say NO.
Or perhaps he thought he was fighting on too many fronts already?

Chapter IX—Recognition of Aboriginal and
Torres Strait Islander Peoples
129 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice
In recognition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Peoples of Australia:
(i) there shall be a body, to be called the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice;
(ii) the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice may make representations to the Parliament and the Executive Government of the Commonwealth on matters relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples;
(iii) the Parliament shall, subject to this Constitution, have power to make laws with respect to matters relating to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice, including its composition, functions, powers and procedures.
It will be a tool of government and give the government more power, that’s why I think it will be bad.
correct, but I’ll will see if I can adjust the default size.
I think so.
An dthere are two sides to that…many people will have indigenous work mates, play alongside them in football teams and so on. A lot of social progress has been made and people don’t like the divisive aspect of the Voice.
Canberra’s Calvary
Spectator Australia – Michelle Pearse – 4th July 2023
The closure of a Catholic hospital has become a matter of life, death and conscience
On a related topic, given my tendency to record (overtly or covertly) important conversations, I have often been told ‘ recording a person without their permission is illegal under the telecommunications act’ or words to that effect.
I did, however, recently have a conversation with a retired law enforcement officer who told me that wasnt true.
He said it is legal to record a conversation provided at least ONE party to the conversation is aware, and it is done for the purpose of making contemporaneous notes.
Is anyone here able to comment?
Then came the famines.
And nobody could understand why the loving Gaia who they worshiped and sacrificed their fields to would be so cruel to them.
What an absurdly stupid opinion from miltonf.
As though saying something publicly about his co-travellers getting rolled would have taken more than 10 minutes out of his schedule between 2016 and 2023.
Presumably if I criticise Nigel Farage’s gum-chewing ability, miltonf will tell me that Farage needed to walk instead.
Activists, like Karen’s (and whatever the noodle-armed pony-tailed male equivalent is) the suffer from a sort of ‘is-ought’ delusion, and believe anything that they want to be illegal is illegal.
Forestry says that loggers can harvest a certain area. Greenies somehow get the idea that the area is unique and should be a world heritage area and decide it ought to be illegal.
Then it is.
And they chain themselves to machinery, spike trees, and defy nature that has imprinted in the brains of mammals and birds instinctive behaviours of personal hygiene, they perch themselves around the place with poorly rhymed slogans and emitting a billowing cloud of acrid emanations mixing age-cured sweat and old bong smoke.
Yes, we should certainly listen to them.
Just piss off.

This article illuminates more of the Nigel Farage de-banking story.
Turns out just firing bank board members is not enough. It is a perverse outcome of the stupidest legislation to make it hard for any person in public trust (‘politically exposed person’) to access banking in case they are doing money laundering.
And its not just ULK legislation, but internationallyinclusing here.
flyingduk, it’s standard operating procedure in journalism that you can record conversations (primarily to ensure accuracy of quotes attributed to the interviewee), but it’s essential you must tell interviewees you’re going to record them before doing so.

Removing specious links also helps.
Depends.
Are you recording?
Standard practice perhaps, but is it a legal requirement?
Given the explosion in public area surveillance, I would think it cannot be – think of all the times and places you get recorded by cameras without your explicit knowledge – on freeways, intersections, shops, banks etc.
I dont recall ever being warned in advance that I might be recorded by a hidden ‘safety camera’ up ahead, particularly the mobile ones. This would also apply to dashcams – do I have to warn every other motorist on the road that I have one in my car ? It records sound AND vision.

Many coppers, especially Highway Patrol have recorded their conversation for years. I was under the impression that it was ok as long as the person recording was party to the conversation.
Either way I would always ask any person who is speaking with you in an official capacity if they’re recording the conversation. If they say yes, ask them for a copy of the recording. If they say no, then be on your guard anyway.
On the legality of recording conversations.
Be sure the guidance you are following is applicable to your jurisdiction and circumstances.

No, flyingduk. It’s voluntary. However, recording etiquette is not included in journalism’s code of ethics.
Given the widespread misuse of journalism to push journalists’ favourite political causes and parties, public mistrust of journalists is entirely justified.
Significantly, journalism’s code of ethics doesn’t define, or attempt to define, the public interest, which journalists (laughably) pretend they’re defending.
Journalists not only are not the public’s eyes and ears, 99% of journalists don’t vote or think like the public.
Duk and others I wish to alert you to a very serious issue.
Our honest and helpful manufacturing team, conveniently located in the People’s Republic of China, are offering at $20 each, fake 1-ounce gold bullion coins that would have completely fooled the Perth Mint. On being told that they had accepted a fake, the Mint notched it with a bolt cutter and sure enough!
I personally was handed one by a coin dealer and personally tested it with a portable XRF unit.
The coin was a beautiful American bullion coin (Not 99.99 fine gold; 1 ounce Au at 91.7% Au is subject to GST unfortunately).
The XRF gave it slightly higher purity than the online refence said it should have.
In the notch, you could see the thick plating fairly easily. The XRF gave me 75% tungsten and 25% copper for the bulk.
Gold can now be a very chancy investment without the backing of the Mint to make buying a fake less likely.
“Miltonf says:

I’d cut Farange some slack. I recall any of his critics here pulling off brexit.”
Milton, I do cut him slack. What Farage has done over the last three decades has been heroic and superlative. I love Nigel.
However, I think it’s time we acknowledge the cowardice of the mainstream right when it comes to defending the free speech of even those whose views we don’t approve of on the right, because all that’s happened is that the progressive censors have been empowered. Farage has remained silent about the abuses copped by Robinson, Hopkins and others. And what good has that done? As has been proven time and time again, the real targets that the left want to silence aren’t the Robinsons and Hopkins of the world, it’s the Farages and other more mainstream voices.
Laurence Fox, over the last few days, has acknowledged that the silence of people like himself and Farage, when it comes to the deplatforming, banning and silencing of Robinson, Hopkins and others, has only empowered the militant left, and now they’re coming to silence him, Farage and others.
Closer to home, it’s why I posted above the hypocritical drivel from the likes of Paterson. He’s now talking a lot about free speech yet I don’t recall him talking much about free speech when the Coalition was in government.
By the way, Paterson is ex-IPA alumni, like that waste of space and former member for Goldstein, the “tealed” Tim Wilson, and like the newby Liberal member of the Victorian Legislative Council, Evan Mulholland. None of them, when elected to parliament, prove to be stoic defenders of free speech, in fact they seem to run a mile from free speech. At the recent Victorian Liberal Party meeting when they decided to expel Moira Deeming, you might ask how that Mr ex-IPA Evan Mulholland voted when asked ‘to expel Moira or to keep Moira’ in the party?
Mr IPA Mulholland voted to expel Moira Deeming…for her free speech.

Various academics via https://theconversation.com/when-did-aboriginal-people-first-arrive-in-australia-100830
Gary Johns via https://quadrant.org.au/opinion/aborigines/2022/10/reframing-the-debate-in-aboriginal-affairs/
If I understand Johns correctly:
1) The aboriginal culture is present mainly (or only?) in aborigines living in the remote areas, a.k.a. “on country”
2) As the culture is a burden holding them back from integration, only people who do not operationalise this culture can escape from the country and integrate.
3) The majority (80%+ according to Johns) of aborigines have integrated, which is confirmed by the most growth being in city-dwelling aborigines.
Just putting two and two together, surely this implies most aborigines living in Australia do not live “on country” and yet still identify as Aborigines?
So there’s two options to resolve this apparent paradox:
1) Perhaps someone should tell the academics that living “on country” is apparently not a fundamental part of aboriginal identity? or…
2) Perhaps the Yes campaign should explain how 80% of the people they claim to be empowering and speaking for are supposedly not true aboriginals according these well-meaning academics?
We knew the Voice was divisive, but I didn’t quite realise how divisive it would be amongst aboriginals.
For Delta (Paywallian):
It’s the eternal condiment conundrum — where should you stash ketchup? Pantry people, countertop champions, and fridge fanatics have been at eachother’s throats for decades. Now Heinz, the voice of authority on all things tomato sauce, has weighed in on the debate.
On June 27, the official Heinz UK Twitter account wrote, “FYI: Ketchup. goes. in. the. fridge!!!”
The tweet sparked a fervent response from devoted fans, who questioned why the product is typically found on shelves at supermarkets or served at restaurants. To add fuel to the fire, Heinz threw the question back to them
“Where do you keep yours? It has to be … in the fridge!” the poll stated.
Fridge triumphed, with 63.2% of over 13,000 votes cast, the poll’s results showed. Meanwhile, 36.8% of respondents said they preferred their ketchup in the cupboard.
Amid the warring words, Olivia Lennon, a spokesman of Heinz Tomato, released a statement: “There was only ever one correct answer, and we‘re happy to share with Heinz Tomato Ketchup lovers across the UK that our ketchup has to be in the fridge,” she wrote. “Although we’re aware many Heinz Tomato Ketchup fans have been storing their ketchup in the cupboard, we do recommend refrigeration after opening.”
The fridge door is the best place to store condiments like ketchup and mayonnaise, rather than milk and eggs, which don’t do as well in constantly fluctuating temperatures.

Aren’t these two things antithetical?
BTW, Delta, I keep my Rosella tomato sauce on the kitchen bench or in the pantry — not in then fridge. It’s full of chemicals that stop it going off and it’s one of few brands of anything I still trust.
I just looked at those latest online poll figures on who will and who won’t vote for the
Voice. Women voting yes substantially outweigh men voting yes.
Time to start talking to every woman in your ambit explaining how this will affect their children’s future. The huge money ads will now start to target women and their feelz.
Truly, I can get so annoyed at my own female sex. I had women friends who voted for SSM on feelz too and now look at the mess that denying the maleness and femaleness of basic things like marriage has caused with gender nonsense now being taught in our schools.
Our own worst enemy sometimes I think.
Women voting yes substantially outweigh men voting yes.
Women are a huge problem, most are innately socialists and will subsequently sign up for all kinds of insanity.
This time they’re coming for their children’s wealth and freedom. Doubt it will make a difference to how the vote. Feelz is more important than their children.
It’s not ketchup, it’s tomato sauce and it lives in the pantry because the modern version, as Tom mentions, is full of chemicals to stop it forming into a clotted mess and going off.
Sign of the times. Chemical convenience over original flavour.
They have ethics?
Tomato sauce in remote pantry Australia is going off quicker than tomato sauce kept in white refrigerators. This tomato sauce inequality is shameful.
We need a tomato sauce voice to parliament.
Thank you,Tom.
My mind is set at ease. I’m a fridge door storer, along with the mayo and other sauces.
So relieved that, in this crazy world, I’m doing at least one thing right.

I’ve been reading a few articles about the financial disaster called Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.
So far I haven’t found any comments about the obvious: Phoebe Waller-Bridge looks like Dylan Mulvaney. I’m sure the choice was overt.
In the 1940s when we only had an icebox we kept our Rosella tomato sauce in the cupboard. Later when we got a fridge it remained in the kitchen cupboard.
Dial of Destiny is a massive flop. Worse even than the previous one. Panned from every quarter.
Yet, Rotten Tomatoes audience reviews tell a different story.
Geez! It must actually be good then! No way would they be manipulating the scores!
IMDB is owned by Amazon, I think. Not sure who owns Rotten Tomatoes, but they foolishly spent money on that disastrous movie.

Lost in the sauce: does ketchup go in the fridge or on the shelf? (3 Jul)

We spent six months in the UK in 2006 and 2010. Each time we decided it was far too much bureaucratic trouble to open a bank account there, so we worked on a cash-only basis and used cards to buy most things. The only problem in 2010 was paying rent on an unfurnished flat, which we then furnished with cheap furniture we gave away when we left. We had a hard job convincing the estate agent to take cash in hand and they didn’t do credit card payments or an international transfer either. I sweet talked them into the cash payment in monthly amounts in the end. Used to sneak in the door at closing time with a brown envelope to hand over. In 2006 we used holiday apartments and credit card payments and were ok for a three month stay, and for the other 3 months we paid cash in another place to a landlady for periods when we weren’t in Europe.
I recall there being far too much rigmarole and tax checking for us to bother opening bank accounts, even though we were both British citizens.
Spot on, BoN. Laughed out loud.
During my Canberra arrest, I *twice* asked the AFP to confirm they were recording me, and filmed them confirming they were. I also filmed them agreeing to my request that the film be kept as I ‘would be calling for it in court’ – to which they also agreed.
When it came to my trial, we asked them to produce said film, and the AFP officer squirmed and looked uncomfortable, then said ‘funny thing about that – when I got back to the station, the camera was flat and there was no recording’
Had I not had my own vision of events (which the AFP seemed to have forgotten – we didnt mention it until trial even though it was done overtly during my arrest), it would have been my story vs 3 (made up) AFP recollections and I would likely be in jail now.
I twice wrote to Senator Antic about it, asking him to use it as a trigger to introduce stronger regs for the preservation and production of body cam film to protect both public and police. Sadly, he did not respond, so we still live in a world where police body cam vision can be ‘lost’ at the whim of police.
This short clip from Michelle Bachmann on the WHO’s plan for a world digital passport is on Twitter. Please listen to it if you can. They are charging ahead with this at warp speed, with or without amendments to the rules and/or any treaty.
I used to keep tomato sauce in the food cupboard until Hairy read the label where it said to refrigerate it. So we moved on to refrigeration. All through my childhood we’d kept tomato sauce on the kitchen table where we ate. We used it on everything, I think it was my main source of vitamin C. It used to go black around the bottle top area but the sauce came out ok and we’re still alive to tell the tale.
Can’t disagree with anything you said earlier Cassie. The thing I find horribly fascinating is the way the establishment has bared its teeth over the last 8 years. Even the Windsors. Despicable.
Realise of course that they dont need income tax at all to run government – they have hidden taxes (sales tax etc) and inflation to use instead.
If they can fund *part* of their expenses by printing and borrowing, they can fund *all* of it the same way. The only real need for taxation at all now is to shape behaviour – think of all their sin taxes – booze, ciggies, fuel.

Excellent point.
No don’t need one simply for that purpose, which is why the National Indigenous Australians Agency already exists – no referendum was required.
Therefore the ATSIVtP is intended to be more than that and, once created, the powers granted by the referendum will be used to install more powers into The Voice.
Give it enough time and the Voice may become the Fence and the Boot.
Duk, you were given such a raw deal.
Is there any way you can be compensated for it?
Even if only by an apology? Or maybe a hefty sum of soother. Talk to a senator again, or an ambulance chasing lawyer if that’s all there is, for it clearly is still causing you considerable emotional pain.
You have been brought down from a great professional height over all of this (as so many others were, but they at least were not stitched up with false charges – although Zoe could make a good case too).
When I see those clips of the Vicpol in action (and Canberra no better for you) I wonder that the people injured aren’t making significant injury claims now. That poor woman in her seventies knocked down and pepped sprayed, for instance, as well as Zoe D.

It makes sense, ancestrally, that women are, on average, to the left of men. One of their main job was to ‘redistribute’ resources brought home by their men to ensure ALL the kids got fed, not just the strongest.
Men, on the other hand, were tasked with using their power and skill to procure said resources in the first place (ie to hunt and kill).
The best hunter brought the most resources home to his kids, favouring their survival.
Ancestral forces also explain why women have much less interest in border security than men – when the tribe over the hill raided them, their existing husbands were tested against the raiders – if they already had the best mates, the raiders lost and life went on. If they didnt, they got an upgrade – so for the men, it was a matter of life and death, for the women, they got pregnant either way.
